3. Aliens (§ 32*) — Deportation of Chinese — Bail.

Chinese Exclusion Act May 5, 1892, c. 60, § 5, 27 Stat. 25 (U. S. Comp. St. 1901, p. 1319), prohibits courts of the United States from allowing bail in deportation proceedings against Chinese persons seeking to land in the United States in the first instance, and Act Cong. Nov. 3. 1893, e. 14, § 2, 28 Stat. 8 (U. S. Comp. St. 1901, p. 1322), prohibits the allowance of bail after the rendition of a final deportation order and pending its execution by the marshal. IIeld, that such sections, by implication, did not give an absolute right to bail to a Chinese person domiciled and residing in the United States at the time of his arrest for deportation, pending an aplica 1 from a commissioner's order to the District Court, but authorized the granting or withholding of bail under such circumstances in the exercise of discretion.
