I would like to ask a question of the Senator from Alabama. who seems to have given this subject great attention. I have seen it stated in the public prints. and would like to know whether it is true or not. that at the time when this immigration came in so rapidly. it was under a contract made by the celebrated syndicate of which Mr. Ames. of Boston. was at the head and those controlling the Central Pacific Railroad. that the Chinamen were brought in under contract. and the famous Six Companies were formed under an arrangement between certain Chinese and these two railroad companies?
