WANT TO ARBITRATE.
Hawaii Willing to Argue the Point
Ignored by the Japs.

New York, July PA dispatch to
the Herald from Washington says:
Hawaii has offered TO refer to arbi-
tration the immigration question pend
ing between herself and Japan. but
the Toxic government has so far ig-
nored the proposition. Telegraphic in
formation TO this effect has been re-
ceived at the state department and it
is therefore possible to deny the report
published that Japan had agreed to
arbitrate the vexed question she is dis
cussing with the Hawaiian govern
ment. The proposition was made in
the report sent by the Hawaiian min
lister for foreign affairs. Cooper, to
Japanese Minister Shimmu Muras last
night, reiterating the demand of his
government that Hawaii recognizes
the principle of monetary liability as a
result of her action in excluding Japan

thorities do not expect that Japan
would accept arbitration. In fact, be-
fore Minister Shin Muras began CORE
spondence with Mr.. Cooper in regard
to the matter he declared that his

nor his government had any idea that

was soon to be thrown around Hawaii

Brown and Rogers Have Departed,

Hungry Throng.
fsnecIal to No Herald.l

Washington, July 12.-The political
situation here as regarding Utah pat
ronage has undergone a change within
the past few days. Ex-senator Brown
and National Committeeman Rogers
have both left the city. Rogers went
direct to Utah and Mr.. Brown went to
Detroit to be present at the convention
of the Republican league clubs shortly
to be held in that city.
Before leaving Mr.. Brown stated that
from Detroit he would journey on to
Utah. but it is believed ne is more like
ly to change mis- mind in that respect
and return again to Washington. when
the convention referred TO is over.
c, o. W'hittemore reached here today
from Chicago, at which city he has
been figuring in a lawsuit for a couple
of weeks. WhitJemOre al first intended
returning home after transaeting his
business in Chicago. but in the fact
that the next district attorney for Utah
has not yet been appointed he saw a
temptation to come back TO Washing
on. and so he came and win line up
with the vast thrOng of hungry office
seekers. VINO look with listless gaze for
daily disappointments at the White
House.

stood to have held out much encourage
ment for the prisoner. Judge Yarrel
says;
MY audience with the president was
very pleasant and was of some length
He appeared deeply interested in the mat
ter. and the documents and letters which
l submitted TO him We're not given a
mere passing glance, as the president con-
sidered them faithfully. 1 believe he has
instructed the proper persons to do all
in their power to secure speedy release
Ambassador Hay. as is known, has
already presented the petition and pa
pers asking Mrs. Maybricks freedom.
and I firmly believe she will secure it. Tn
doubtedly the greatest difficulty expert
enced in getting this unfortunate woman
released is the seeming Indifference on
the part of the people Of America They
don't seem to care anything for her.
They don't seem TO care how long she
remains IN prison.

From Defeat.

Paris, July 12.-The government had
a narrow escape from defeat in the
chamber of deputies today. The min

the discussion of the bill for the re-
adjustment Of the direct taxes. the
passage OF which would chiefly benefit

a preference on the part of the social

wild confusion ensued. the socialists
rising to their feet shouting and shak-
ing their fists.
Another division was finally taken
and NJ. Miller's motion for the imme-
date discussion of the bill was lost by
a vote of 270 to 257. The trouble was
largely due to the detection of a sec
