A state case known as People v. Hall established that the testimony of these people was not admissible in a murder trial. These people were the target of violence in a riot inspired by Workingmen's Party president Dennis Kearney. An 1898 Supreme Court opinion by Harrison Gray upheld the citizenship claim of one member of this group. Members of this group were guaranteed all the "privileges, immunities, and exemptions," held by U.S. citizens by Article VI of the (*) Burlingame treaty. That treaty was the basis for Benjamin Harrison opposition to an 1882 act which suspended the immigration of these people. For 10 points, identify these members of an immigrant population notable for being used as railroad labor, the subject of an "exclusion act."
