Washington, June 13.-At today's
cabinet meeting the president took up
with Secretary Metcalf, of the depart
ment of commerce and labor, the pro-
test filed with him by members of the
American Asiatic Association against
what they regard as the harsh enforce
ment of the Chinese exclusion law.
Both the president and Secretary Met
calf are anxious to do all in their pow
er to promote the export trade Of Anne
rican manufactures and, with that end
in view, they will take up this subject
of the admission to this country of the
Chinese except classes in definite
way.
Representatives of the cotton textile
industry are apprehensive lest the re-
ported action of some of the immigra-
ton officials may result in boycott by
Chinese merchants of American-made
cotton goods. Secretary Metcalf pro-
poses to inquire into the subject to as
certain what, if anything, may be done
to eliminate what the Chinese regard as
abuses of the exclusion law. 1t is sug-
gested, however, that the subject is
one which necessarily will have to be
dealt with by congress and not by the
government. Secretary Metcalf ex-
pressed the opinion at today's meeting
that the law was not enforced with un-
necessary harshness. The necessity of
close scrutiny of the certificates present
ed by persons representing themselves
to be of the exempt classes was pointed
out by the secretary, as many of such
certificates are fraudulent. The
secretary indicated that during the pre-
sent fiscal year, 70 Chinese, bearing
students certificates, had applied for
admission and that II of them had been
admitted. The other two were debar-
red by disease.
Secretary Wilson informed the presi-
dent that he was pressing his investi-
CATION of the charges filed with him
that leak had occurred in the cotton
crop reports issued by the agricultural
department, but he yet had been unable
to devolope proof to sustain the charges.
The agent of the secret service and
others who are making the investiga-
ton have been instructed by Secretary
Wilson to leave no stone unturned in
their inquiry.

ROoseveIts Rusticate In Woods of Virginia
Graham, Va.

Richmond, Va, June 1O.-In the
depths of the woods of Virginia Presi-
dent Roosevelt this morning ate a
breakfast cooked by the first lady in the
land-his wife. The distinguished pair
spent yesterday afternoon and portion
of the evening at "Plain Dealing" the
home of W. N. Wilmer, from whom
Mrs. Roosevelt purchased her cottage
home few hundred yards distant,
After dinner President and Mrs.
Roosevelt, all unattended, went to their
modest home and there spent the night.
Unguarded and without a human being
anywhere near them, they slept very
soundly.
Early this morning Mrs. Roosevelt
arose, leaving the head of the nation
-reposing peacefully above, and went
down to the kitchen to prepare break
fast. She found an oil stove in the
kitchen, but not match was to be had.
The President being no smoker did not
have a lucifer anywhere about him.
However, one of the ubiquitous negroes
passed along and In little while the
necessary fire had been obtained.
What the President and Mrs. Roose-
velt ate for breakfast is not known, but
the meal is said to have been simple and
democratic.
After their repast the President and
his wife wandered around admiring the
scenery. Later they went over to the
home of the Winners, where the Presi-
dent spent portion of the day inspect
ing Mr.. Winners thoroughbreds. Their
only caller during the day was S. R.
Gault, postmaster of Scottsville.

Remarkable Salt for Damages.

Edinburgh, June 12.-Lord Pearson
is engaged in hearing remarkable suit
for $25, 900 damages, the claim having
been filed against the trustees Of Mr.
Robert Easton, of Glasgow, who diet
in an asylum. The plaintiff Is Miss
Mary Scott Liddall, school teacher, OF
Dundee. Mr.. Easton was man of In
dependent means and they were en-
gagged to be married. Letters have
been produced showing that Mr.. castor
worried because he had deceived his Ia
tended through not telling her that he
had at one time been an inmate of az
insane asylum. This appeared to have
preyed upon his mind and three days be
fore the date fixed for the wedding M
was again taken t9 an asylum, remain
ing there until he died. So far al
known, however, this is the first cas'
in Scotland in which the trustees of th'
estate of dead lover have ever beel
sued.

THE SAFE WAY Or
SAVING YOUR MONEY
Facilities Offered By the American
National Bank Of Graham,
Virginia

Your money is safe only when it is
safely invested. Burglars can annoy
you, bad loans may cripple you, specu-
lations may ruin you. The American
National Bank of Graham, Va, is safe,
because it is governed on a conservative
basis, because it is a National Bank,
and regularly examined by the United
States Government. 1t holds your
money where you can get it, and with
out danger of loss. People who intrust
their money to bank want to know
something of its financial strength.
We fully recognize this right, and gladly
furnish depositors with list of our di-
rectors and stockholders. Then from
time to time we publish reports show
ing the condition of the bank, copies of
these reports are kept and handed those
who wish to see them. The officers of
this institution keep in touch with every
detail of the business; by so doing they
are enabled to handle the affairs of their
patrons quickly and satisfactorily. Gus
toners have right to expect that their
banking business will be treated as con-
fidential; this we do, and we also aim to
protect their interest in every legiti-
mate manner.
Many persons keep their money in
this bank that they may have it within
ready reach when needed for daily use,
some keep it here awaiting opportunity
for Investment, others to avoid the risk
of annoyance of loaning it, others keep
it as a permanent investment on which
they receive interest 1t will therefore
be seen that we accommodate all classes
of people.
We solicit the accounts of corpora
tions, firms and individuals, and offer
splendid advantages for all commercial
banking business, and pay three per
cent. interest on all savings accounts.

MEN READY TO SHOULDER GUNS
Should Situation Warrant 1t Popular
Feeling Of Country FavOrs a Republic
Believed Sweden Will Finally
Yield.

Christiania, Norway, June 1O.-A re-
markable calm, accompanied by stern
determination, pervades Norway.
Beyond the display Of the new NOrwe-
gian flag from the buildings in Chris
tiana and portraits of the provisional
governors in the shop windows, which
attract small crowds, there are no Visi-
BILE signs here that Norway is in the
throes of revolution. Norwegian and
Swedish merchants continue business
uninterruptedly. The officials here ex-
press confidence that Sweden finally
will accept the situation. While, how
ever, determinati9n is eVidentI every
where intense anxiety is apparent, and
the molAhefs Of the cabinet are extreme
ly busy In organizing the new govern
ment and providing for eventualities.
Every Norwegian, apparently, is ready
to answer a call to arms should the sit
uation warrant it.
A member Of the cabinet, who was
interviewed by the Associated Press to-
day, said that the Norwegians never
would recede from their present atti-
tude. 1t was not expected, he said,
that Sweden would declare war, but in
that event, he added, Norway would be
prepared.
Regarding the danger of Russian and
German aggression against the two
countries in their separated state, the
minister declared that the union was
not strong enough to prevent aggres-
sion by these powers and that there is
no reason to suppose they are more COW
etous now than before the separation.
Norway depended on England to pre-
vent such encroachment, he said, and
Norway is perfectly willing to enter
defensive alliance with Sweden and
Denmark. The minister said that pop
ular feeling of the country favored a
republic and expressed the hope that
the United States would be the first to
recognize the new government.

United States has inherited ties OF
friendship and good will. 1t hopes fol
the prosperity and welfare of each, and
it feels that the progress of the world
is set back by the war between these
two great nations.
THE President accordingly urges the
Russian and Japanese Governments,
not only for their own sakes, but in the
interest of the whole civilized world, to
open direct negotiations for peace with
one another. The President suggests
that these peace negotiations be con-
Quoted directly and exclusively between
the belligerents; in other words, that
there may be meeting of Russian and
japanese plenipotentiaries or delegates
without any intermediary, in order to
see if it is not possible for these repre-
sentatives of the two Powers to agree
to terms of peace.
"The President earnestly asks that
the Russian (Japanese) Government DO
now agree to such a meeting, and is
asking the Japanese (Russian) Govern
ment likewise to agree.
OFFERS HIS SERVICES.
"When the President does pot fee
that any intermediary should be called
in respect to the peace negotiations
themselves, he is entirely willing to dc
what he properly can if the two Powers
concerned feel that his services will be
of aid in arranging the grellminaries as
to the time and place Of meeting,
"But II even these preliminaries car
be arranged directly between the twf
Powers, or in any other way, the Presi'
dent will be glad, as his sole purpose il
to bring about a meeting which the
whole civilized world will pray may
result ip peace"
Washington, June 10.-Fron an au
thoritative official source it is learned
today that it has been practically de-
termined that the plenipotentiaries Of
Japan and Russia for the determination
of peace terms will hold their sessions
in Washington.
Inasmuch al the efforts which have
been successful In the bringing OF tn
belligerent governments into contac'
were initiated by President Roosevelt
and further, that most amicable rela'
tions exist between the United States
and both Russia and Japan, this city il
regarded as the 'Hogical place" for th'
institution of the practical peace nego
tiations between the warning govern
ments,
Japan's acceptance REACHED the State
Department several hours ahead p1
Russia's reply. Had the eablegran
from Ambassador Meyer reached here
before the department closed, there is
strong probability that both would have
been aaade public today. No word re
garding their charaster ean be obtained
beyond the important fact that both ar'
acceptances and both express the graft
tude of the respective governments fol
the Presidents offer of good will.
