The Senator states that the Chinese Government always have been willing that their laborers shall not emigrate to this country. that they do not desire them to come to this country. Why. then. I ask the chairman of the Committee on Foreign Relations. did the Chinese Government hesitate and absolutely refuse. finally. to agree to a treaty which we made here in 1888 for that purpose? A treaty was entered into and was amended in the Senate slightly and sent back to the Chinese Government. but they held it there month after month and month after month. giving us no satisfaction.
