Article Transcript

SAN FRANCISCO, April 8.—Last Sunday there was an anti-Chinese procession here, headed by the city coroner. Every Chinaman who happened to cross its route was maltreated. Little was thought of it, as none of them was supposed to be seriously hurt. The Chinese Consul says to-day, however, that twenty were badly injured, many of them being cut about the head, one fatally.
