ing station on the rock. The transport

Statement Was Misleading.

Sacramento, Cal, May 29.-John F. Car
rer, secretary of the state commission of
lunacy, says that the published statement
to the effect that under a treaty between
the United States and Japan all insane
Japanese confined in state hospitals are
to be deported is misleading. He states
that 1t Is intended, to deport only nineteen
japanese, one Of whom are violently in
sane and it was never the intention of the
commission of lunacy to deport all such
patients. He stated that there is no
treaty between the two countries touch
ing the question of insane persons. He
further said that the deportation OF
Chinese would be carried along identical
lines with those of the japanese.
