RESULT OF HAYS NOTE
Roumania's Recent Act in Discon-
tinuing Passports to the Jews
F. =. +. and Its Effect,

Washington, Sept. 26.-The report that
the government of Roumania has discon-
tinued the issuance of passports to Jews
intending to emigrate to America, though
not officially confirmed, Is regarded by the
Washington authorities as an immediate
and direct recognition by Roumania Of
the accuracy Of the statements made by
Secretary Hay in the note respecting the
evils of this Jewish immigration and the
underlying causes. The reported sus-
pension of emigration would be regarded
as removing the only direct issue between
the United States and Roumania and
while we may continue to have deep
concern In the betterment of the condi-
ton Of the Roumanian Jews, the United
States government must for the time rest
content with what it has done in the is
sue Of the Identical note to the powers
. AS to the effect upon the Jews them
selves of the suspension of the right to
emigrate to America, the opinion ex-
pressed here is that the order will accent
uate the evils from which the Jews are
suffering at present and that fact, in the
end by attracting the attention Of the
powers ana exciting the humane senti-
ments of civilization, will force an amelio-
ration of the condition of the Jews.

O'NEILL IN DEEP THOUGHT
Can He Hold Two Positions Without
Interfering With the State
Constitution?

From, The Journal Bureau. Room, Is, Post
Building, Washjn0toss.
Washington, Sept. 26.-An unexpected
complication has arisen in connection
with the appointment Of VIM. O'Neill of
Ashland, Wis, as chief examiner of the
Chippewa timber lands in Minnesota.
There is "a question whether O'Neill can
legally take the job and at~the same time
hold on as state, senator. O'Neill's term
extends over the next session Of the leg
islature which is to be held next winter.
He is an ardent Spooner man and wants
to have the pleasure Of voting for him for
senator Mr.. Spooner's friends also want
him to hold on
It is a question whether he can hold
both offices under the state constitution.
There will be no trouble so far. as the
federal law or constitution is concerned
If it is decided that he cannot hold both
places 1t is probable that some arrange
ment will be made for the appointment Of
a temporary head of the corps and that
sO,Neifl will vote for Spooner and then re-
sign his senatorial place.

FORAKER AND THE PRESIDENT
They Differ Slightly as to the Method OF
Handling Trusts.

They Differ Slightly as to the Method Of
Handling Trusts.
Ne.o York Sun Special servtoe
Chicago, Sept ga Tribune special
from Cincinnati says: When the repub-
lican campaig1hin Ohio is formally opened
at Akron Saturday night, both of the Ohio
senators will make speeches, and the
meeting is likely to be followed by con-
siderable comment, owing to the fact that
the senior senator, Mr.. Foraker, will ap-
pear to differ materially from President
Roosevelt on the trust question.
There has been a friendly rivalry be-
tween the two senators, or rather be-
tween their friends, as to who should open
the speech making at Akron, and the
choice naturally fell on Foraker, who Is
the senior senator.
It is true that Mr.. Foraker does not
agree with President Roosevelt and this
fact will become evident when the speech
is published, but the country should not
be misled into the belief that there is
some estrangement between the senior
senator from Ohio and the president over
the trust question. - ...s, Vi: 4 ,,.ss.s M 81
As a matter of fact, 1t is only differ
enee Of opinion regarding the methods te
be- ipursued. Senator Foraker Goes not
antagonize President Roosevelt In any,
way He differs with him as to the ques-
tioh assto q constftut ional amendment but
not as to the adv fsabi lily OF reg ulating the
fTasts IN sonle anrlerl to prevent extor-
ton or the creation Of a bHrdensome mo-
5nopoly. SCR X. - sr.-@ -
AS matter of fact, the president and
the senator had an opportunity last Satur-
day, while the president was here to ex-
change few words on the subject, and
each Of them thoroughly understands and
respects the position of the other.
