retary of the t-ea-uiy to-day trans-
nitted to the Henate a report from
D. K. ('o.m, Chinese inspector at
Sail Diego, California, dated Apiil
21 , with respect to the evasion oi
the Chines.; exclusion act. Coon
says it is truo that Chinese are
coming to the Tinted States
despite the eilorts of the customs
department to keep them out.
Coon Kays the opportunities fcr
crossing the Mexican border to
California aie many ;w itli the mens
at the command of the deni'rtmeiit
it will be ini: jssib'e to prevent all
of llu-in from entering this coun
try. Coinnicntiinj on the charge
that the Scott exclusion act is a
failure. Coon says this is practic
ally true as to its execution, for the
reason that when a Chinaman is
arrested he is. enabled while in con
finement to make arranitcinents
with friendly men to lie returned a
second time and be eotidiu-ted to
some other town. He is also able
to so disguise himself as to make
identification, if caught, extremclv
difficult.
