Talks on Chinese exclusion with the President
Representative Perkins of New York met with the President to discuss hearings of the Chinese exclusion subcommittee. It was unofficially stated the subcommittee will report a bill after hearings. Perkins said the aim is to satisfy Chinese susceptibilities without admitting Chinese coolies to the United States. He suggested it might be better to lose all trade with China than admit the entire class. The committee seeks to make immigration laws less objectionable to the Chinese.

He warned irrigation costs could reach 36 dollars an acre and sugar beet farming would be needed to sustain farming, risking American sugar markets. A Senate subcommittee will study the snow removal law, as District officials say removal costs could hit 100000 dollars annually with frequent storms.
