The Chinese of New South Wales are determined, it seems, to hold fast to the principle of the boycott which was placed upon Japanese commerce and shipping some three years ago. It is understood that about forty Chinese wore included in the passenger list of the Japanese steamer Nikko Maru which ■ recently visited Australia. In view of the probability of any of the number landing at Sydney, and wishing to remain in New South Wales, the Chinese community held a meeting, at which it was unanimously agreed that no Chinese entering the State by a vessel on which the embargo had been placed, should be employed by either merchant, cabinetmaker, or market gardener of their own nationality.
