Individually they enter into these contractsin China. and the emigration is encouraged by the steamship companies for the" profits of the traflic. and sometimes a. thousand. sometimes fifteen hundred. come over in one vessel. The agents of these six companies of capitalists associated together in San Francisco have their agents in China. and they procure these men. got them to enter into these contracts. and ship them. not from a Chinese port. as I have staled. hit from file English port of HongKong. Governor Low told me the Chinese government was opposed to the emigration. and had tried to suppress it. and would do it if they had the power. But it has no power to do it in that port.
