Opinion

HAWLEY, District Judge.

In the face of the repeated decisions of this court, we cannot say that the judgment herein, finding that appellant was born in China, was clearly against the weight of evidence. The further question presented, as to whether or not a Chinese prostitute comes within the term “Chinese laborer,” as used in the acts of congress, was decided in the affirma' tive in the case of Lee Ah Yin v. U. S. (C. C. A.) 116 Fed. 614. The judgment of the district court is affirmed.
