Chinese Boycott
Puts Americans
Out of Business
Houg Kong, July 31.—The Chi
nese boycott is still gaining strength
among the laboring classes and all
the native laborers employed by the
Standard Oil Company have quit
work. It is learned that the society
order which calls off these men will
presently affect all the workers,
high and low, of all the American
firms operating in China. At Shang
hai several important American j
concerns have ostensibly sold out
to competing trims of British na- j
tionality. This manner of escaping
the boycott is not likely to prove
popular, since in two cases it has
resulted in the boycotting of all the
British goods with which the Amer
ican products were mixed. The
Chinese press is advising the public
that there is a large amount of
changing of the wrappings and
brands of American goods going on
in order to escape the boycott. Two
French firms are suing their Amer
ican competitors for substituting a
brand nearly resembling the French
markings.
Shanghai, July 28.—Local Chi
nese bankers have started to boycott
American bankers. European banks
will be given preference over those
of the United States wherever pos
sibla, and the American institutions
in China will lie rigidly boycotted.
San Francisco, Aug. 2.—Getz
Bros., among the largest exporters
of American goods to the Orient on
this coast, received a cablegram
from their agents in Shanghai di
recting the firm to cancel all orders.
The boycott on all American goods
is effective and complete and so far
as American merchants are con-1
cerned business is suspended in
China.
Portland, Ore., July >2.— In re
sponse to President Roosevelt’s in
vitation to the commercial bodies of
the Pacific coast to express their
views regarding the problem of
Chinese exclusion or the restriction
of tht immigration of the Chinese
to this couutry, the president ot the
chanit>er of commerce has forwarded
a letter in which the president is
urged to take steps to negotiate a
new treaty with China that shall
provide for the removal ot the ex
acting conditions that nuw attach
to the cutrauce into this country of
their merchant*, students and pro
fessional men, for the absolute free
dom of all Chinese residents of this
country to visit their own land and
return here, and tor the admission
during the next ten years of a num
ber of male Chinese laborers that in
any one year shall not exceed one
tenth of one per cent, of the popu
lation of this country.
Washington, Aug. 5.—The Pan
ama canal commission has decided j
to employ Chinese coolies as labor-'
ers on the canal. For that purpose1
it will contract with people at
Shanghai for 2,000 coolies to be
shipped to Panama in a short time.
HARVEY THOMPSON
STILL IN TROUBLE
Fairbanks News: To have one j
charge dismissed and to be arrested :
for the same alleged crime on an-1
other charge, is the experience of,
Harvey Thompson accused of cash- j
ing a money order made out to Mrs. j
Thompson of Cliena last winter. It
seems there was an error in the in-1
dictment. A true bill was brought
in for larceny instead of for embez- j
zlement. The case was tried before j
a jury and the jury was instructed
to bring in a verdict of not guilty,
owing to the error.
MEN SCARCE
AT KETCHIKAN
The Ketchikan Mining Journal
of July 29 says there is great de
mand for laborers in that district.
Every mine has the same complaint
and help of all kinds is desired.
The mines are forced to send to
Seattle or San Francisco for help
The lowest wages is $2.50 a day
and board, which would l>e called
insignificant in the interior; but it
is considered good pay on the coast,
where living is cheap and employ
ment constant.
Cy Noble and Sourdough Mike
stocked the old 74 Roadhouse with
provisions in ordei to use it as an 1
emergency camp on their freighting
trips. Unauthorized parties entered 1
the place and cleared out all the
provisions and dumped part of the
camp equipage out of doors. The
freighters think such conduct very
inconsiderate, especially since all
comers have always l>een cordially
received there. The house is now
destitute of supplies.
