WASHINGTON. April lI.-Oue of
two things is likely to- happen to- the
Mitchell-Kahn exclusion bill from the
present outlook IL viii either be
amended to conform to the present laws
and be passed, or will be sidctrackcd
for the Plat amendment. 1t is likely
that 10 win be amended and passed, al
though a poll taken of the Senate to-
day, according to the Senator who took
1T, revealed a vote of fOrty-iive against
the bill But he spoke of the bin as it
stands. while everybody admits that it
must be amended to stand any chance
at all.
Another Senator said he believed the
bill would be bettered so its best
friends wouldn't know it, He believed,
however, it would then pass unless the
Senate i'm a fit of disgust over its dras-
tic provisions should sidetraCk it for
Platts amendment, i'm which case the
Plat amendment itself would have to
go through a course of amendments.
IF the Plat amendment is accepted
said this Senator, "au amendment will
have to be added to it providing for the
exclusion of Chinese from the Philip
! pines. The President wants this ana
the Senate wants it,
Senator FOraker's speech today in
the Senate attracted much attention to
the bill i'm it's relation to the treaty and
caused some doubts among certain Sen
ators who heretofore have been stall
warts for the bill. one of them admitted
that he was shaky and would like to see
the Senate take up the present laws and
re-enact them without trying to frame
. a new bill.

unfortunate that the California Com
mission came on here and mixed mat
| ters up by proposing a new and drastic
! bill. We would have been through with
! exclusion before this if the Democrats
| on that Commission had not tried to
/ make politics out of the exclusion pO-
| Icy"
! Immediately after Forakers. speech
| Lodge called up the amendments that
| had been passed over. One of these
was a proposition to strike out the sal

| stricken out, and the matter was about
| to go to a vote with nobody in the
| Senate paying any attention to it, when
Patterson pricked up his ears and en-
| tered a protest just in time to stop the
proceedings. He objected to a vote un-
! til Wednesday, when the matter will
come up with the other amendments
Lodge gracefully gave way under Pat
tersOn's objection.
Judging by the assaults on the sailor
clause on every side, and in view Of
the great activity Of Senator Hanna

him to strike out the sailor clause, that
provision is sure to go. 1t remains in
