To order to get into the Chiasse movement the firm of Krupps are sucking facilities to establish in Chida a factory at which contracts for various E sieta Governments, as welḥ AT the Chinese, might be undertaken. To judge from the latest developments, it seems polikely that the great firm as Essen will obtain the facilities they desire, and it may be expected that the Ministers in Peking, especially of Great Brit ab, Frazer, the United Blat:s and Japan, would object to any special concessions the Chipete Gorerement might be dispared to giant to Germans in thịu regurð,

The committes on foreign affairs of the Chamber of Commerce and the committee on trade and commerce of the Merchants: Ex- chasgs have submited a joint report on the admission of Chlosse at the port of San Fran cisco, and the report has been approved by the trustees of the Chamber of Commerce and by the directors of the Merchants' Exchange, and copies were sunt to President Taft, the Secre tary of Commerce and Labour,
The committees, after a thorough and most siching investigation, interviewing the' lênđ- ing Osiness in the city, conferring with the Immigration officials, and observing BVOTY phrase of examining Chinese Immigrants, from the time the steamer reaches port, report that nome cause for complaint on the part of Chi- aese exlers, but has baun ex ggerated.
EXAMINATION, KOT UNREASONABLE, The committees found the examinations of Chinese wishing to land unreasonable and im- possible to answer the questions cor ectly. An an instance they cite the fallawing cam: The | eight or ted-year-old son of a marchant is ask- ed bis grandmothers' maiden nama on both his father's and mother's side; the names of | people living a black or two distant from his | home,- names of their children, their age and- sez, and other questions equally difficult to "murrer."The father, who has not been at-home" |for years, is asked to corroborato his son's
statement, which is impassible.
**Oriëntale aitorpting to land have difficälty In having thale witnesses go to Angle island, even mi nesses living in and sear Séu Frans cisco, Those whose witnesses, live at a greaz distance from this port have greater difficulty in securing their attendants.

CHINESE GIVE DETAILS, The Chinese have furnished the committee the details of forty-five stastage passengers' 1910, which, according to the version of the
Chinese, are not creditable to the officials.
The committee recommended that Ualled States Conscis berequested toallay the Irrita- tion in China, assuring those. entitled to land | that they will bs'permitted to do so without any indignities being imposed upon them, and that falsh bu ke at with more travellers ; that reason- able and rational methods of questioning be ad prod; that all withes as who lies in or near UBER date Shanghal, Bth inst, Mesa San Francisco be examined in this city, ralley.
