Memorandum from William Woodville Rockhill to Francis B. Loomis

Ambassador Rockhill updates Acting Secretary of State Loomis regarding the rumored boycotts of American goods in China. The boycotts of American goods are a result of the unfair and restrictive immigrant laws the United States imposed on China. Rockhill encloses four attachments regarding communications with Prince Ching Yikuang, Chinese newspapers on the topic, police orders to stop congregations, and background information on the failed negotiations with the Chinese on immigration restrictions to the United States.
