Chairman Hamilton of Michigan had asked MT. Morrison many questions about the inadequate taxation of mines and railways in Art- zona end Mir. Smith objected to the frequent interruption. When MT. Pow CTS began questioning MT. Morrison as to the proposition of the Mexican pop ulation in Arizona and New Mexico, MT. Smith again objected to interrup- ton which interferred with MT. Morri- sons argument.
 Mir. Powers resented the interrup- tion and exclaimed: "I understand full ly the sensitiveness of this delegation concerning these questions. l know whom they represent and all about them"

Smith offered an apology. saying that perhaps he was mistaken, but that MT. Powers questions struck him as though inspired by partisanship and not by desire for information.
 On account of the frequent interrup- tiOns by members of the committee and promptings and Interruptions by mem bers of the Arizona delegation, MT. Morrison was unable to make an eX- tended argument. The feeling was so intense and the hearing so unsatis- factory that the committee decided that at the hearing to be held tomOr- row morning, all the speakers shall be permitted to complete their arguments before they are subjected to questions by members Of the committee.
 The ATizOnians at the hearing were: Dwight B. Heard of Phoenix; Former Governor N. c. Murphy of Arizona; F.. B. O'Neill of Phoenix; C. C. Randolph; A. J. Doran; Father Quetu, and F. R.

THE REFUSE
 OF EUROPE
Gross Violation of Immi-
 grafton Law
4 Report on a Conspiracy of Euro. pean Governments Steamship Com- panies and Americans.

Washington, Jan. 17.-In response to the Sulzer resolution passed by the house, Secretary Metcalf of the de- partment of commerce and labor, to- day sent to the house the report of Special Immigrant Inspector Marcus Braun, which deals at great length with the character of immigrants coming to this country and the latitude of the European governments on the matter. MT. Braun declares he has incontro- vertible evidence that while the mum = Der of aliens shipped to this country who are legally inadmissible because of disease is diminishing, immigrants inadmissible for other reasons are con- stantly brought into the country in large numbers 'by the concerted action of some European governments and steamship agencies by bankers and schemers of all sorts.'
 He cites the fact that $5O.0OO.OOO was sent last year from the United States to Austria Hungary alone from these immigrants. Not a single promise which the new Hungarian immigrant law guaranteed" he says, "has been kept"
 MT. Braun then takes up immigration from Turkey, Asia Minor and Syria Speaking of the Armenians, he says lldI lHey eHllSfate 10 the united States and as soon as they have earned suf- ficient money for their needs they re- turn, supplied with American citizen ship papers and are continually con- spring against the Turkish govern -ment under the protection of Ameri- can citizenship.
 The same is true in Syria and Pal estine. In Jerusalem alone MT. Braun found more than one thousand Ameri- can citizens. Violations of the immi- grant law will continue, he declared as long as there are agents and sub agents of steamship companies work ing on a commercial basis. These vio- lations are not confined to Europe alone, but are fragrant in America. Bankers, publishers of newspapers in foreign languages, foreigne clergymen and others doing business here are ar dent missionaries in inducing immi- grants to come here for the purpose of exploitation and are equally interested in the return traffic. The foreign priest and minister, he says, is a most dan gerous meddler and political agitator. It has become a favorite expression, he says, to speak of ''our colonies in America"

Delegate Smiths DenunCiatiOn of the Un-
 fairness of Hamilton and Powers
Their Frequent Interruption of the Argument of R. E. Morrison-A Promise of Decency at Hearing to be Given the Arizona Delegates Today.

ton, displayed his intense opposition to the anti-jointure movement. He de- clared in substance that the statement that d corrupt lobby was behind the op- position to the pending measure, de- served the fullest consideration.
 Governor Powers of Maine vied with the chairman in his efforts to confuse MT. Morrison and insult the delegation. MT. Morrison was not per mitted to speak more than two minutes consecutiVely without interruption. The result was that all continuity of his argument was lost. Delegate Smith gave the committee to understand that he appreciated its object and he did not mince words in making his mean ing clear.
 The entire proceeding but accentuat- cd the statement l wired last night that the delegation should not have asked for a hearing as it is plain to every member of the delegation now that the committee has no intention of be- ing fair.
 At the meeting tomorrow morning, MT. Hamilton and MT. Powers will be called upon to apologize for their ut terances and there is a possibility of a warm session. In the meantime the house insurgents stand pat and the prospects of the passage of the bill are worse than they were a week ago.

WAR
 MADE BOYCOTT
The Chinese Learned From
 Japanese
An Entirely New Theory Regarding the Origin Of the Anti-American Trade Movement.

New York, Jan. 17.--In response to an inquiry sent him from the office of the Presbyterian Board of Foreign Missions in this city, the Rev. Dr. Henry V. Moves who is stationed at Canton, China, and has represented the board for over forty years, writes about the boycott in a letter receiv- ed from him today. The letter has been several weeks on the way, but it makes evident the fact that the feel ing against foreign goods is in no sense abating. pr. Moves says:
 The boycott still seems to hold out as strong as ever. I asked MT. Burk- wall, the agent of the British and Foreign Bible society, who has recent ly been more than 400 miles up the West river how he found conditions. He said he could make very few sales. Everybody said they would not buy those foreign books. He said his col porteurs make similar reports of other localities, and this is a good index of the feeling, as compared with a year ago. when sales were large.
 "One very singular feature of the boycott is that it started in Peking and not in South China, from whence goes all, or at least ninety-nine hun

FRENCH RULER
 MI. FALLIERES
Election of the Successor
 of LOubet
The New President Has Been Promi- nent in the Politics of France for Forty Years.

Paris, Jan. 17.-CIement Armand Fallieres was elected president of France on the first ballot in the nat ionaI assembly today. When the first figures were given out there was an outburst of enthusiasm which was re- newed after the corrected figures giv- ing Mr. Fallieres 449. thus increasing his already clear majority was an- nounced.
 In all S49 voters were present. The final figures were M. FallieTes 449; M. Heres returned to Paris from Versail- les. where the election took place and was escorted by a military guard of honor. He will begin his duties as president on February 18th.
 M. Fallieres is siXty-five years of age and has been prominent in Frencn politics for nearly forty years. He rep resented the department of Lot-et- GarOnne in the national chamber of deputies from 1876 to 1890. He held the position of minister of the inter- for in 1882, 1883 and 1887. He was twice minister of instruction and also twice minister of justice. He was elected a senator in 1890 and was re- elected in 1897. On the election oi President 1oubet, Fallieres succeeded him as president of the senate and on the convening of that body as the high court of justice, he presided al the trials of M. DeIourede M. GuerIu and others on charges of conspiracy.

Birmingham in MT. Chamberlain, the results there go also to confirm what already has been noticed in isolated contests, that the candidates who open ly professed protectionist Jennings had good support and in some cases were victorious.
 The outcome at Birmingham affords a striking contrast. While MT. Balfour stands discredited as leader, with his supporters all swallowed up and himself anerily criticised from his own side, MT. Chamberlain issued from the contest with flying colors.
 His success to a large extent justi- fies him to persevere in his agitation, and he is in a position to argue that 1t was MT. Balfour's timidity, which lost the campaign. Many of today's polls will not be declared until tomor- row, but those published tonight show that the liberal tide still runs strong. London has gone distinctly liberal no less than twelve seats showing liberal gains.

dredths of the emigration to the United
 States. It was not, therefore, a direct cry from those in trouble, or it would
 have come from the four districts of
 the Kwangtung province near the sea.
 As Dr. Ashmore has justly said: If there had been no Japanese war with Russia there would have been no boy colt in China But that war has made it seem possible to China also to rise up in a somewhat angry protest against the indignities which she has so long received from the strong na- tions of the West. Quite likely she is relying on help from Japan, especially in the way of training an army for
 self protection, which is not a matter
 of many years if undertaken in earn
 est.
 ''The movement commenced in Pe-
 king, where a meeting was held, at
 tended by about 200 leading men from
 all parts of the empire. Thence it
 went to Tien Tsin and Shanghai, and i then to Canton. There is good deal of real patriotism in it, and a good deal of justise also. Surely, if the i United States singles out China among all the nations of the earth, and holds her doors closed against Chinese 1 people, she has not much right to | complain IT Cnlna nOldS her doors
 closed against United States mer- , chandise.
 The trouble is, however, that the thing las been carried too far. If the i Chinese had contented themselves with
 simply refraining from purchasing 1 United States goods. they would have | had the approval of many. But those who have a purpose in view to incite ! hatred against Americans first, and | then all foreigners have been persistly l issuing placards and publishing in- , flammatory articles in the papers
 which are in large part untrue, but | which have produced a strong anti l foreign feeling in many places. l Immense memorial meetings have 1 been held in honor of the young man | who committed suicide on the steps oi [ the United States consul generals of ! flee in Shanghai. His name was Flung / Ha Wal. He was originally from the ] Kwangtung province and had spent 1 ten years in the United States. The viceroy says that the way tC
 stop the boycott is to make just and | fair treaty. Then it will die natura
 death.
 | Notwithstanding all, however. there | does not seem to me to be any present 1 indication of a general outbreak.

 STRONGHOLD
Birmingham Stands by its
 FaVOrite Son
Chamberlain and all His Candidates
 Were Returned-His Success Con-
 trasted With Balfour's Failure. =

ent feature of tOday's election returns is the wholly unexpected stand made by Birmingham. Not onIy were all of Jos. Chamberlain's seven candidates returned, but Mir. Chamberlain himself secured a majority of 5000 while the majority of the others averaged 5000.
 The results at Birmingham are of the highest importance. They prove the groundlessness of the liberal con- tention that this general election has killed the fiscal agitation for a gener- atiOn to come.

COMPULSORY EDUCATION
BILL MEETS APPROVAL
Public Education Association Will Find
Means for Accommodating All
Children Who Come.

Lack of accommodations for more
school children is no tenabie objection
/ in She District of Columbia TO the COM
putsoTy education BILL This was the
! Keynote of the meeting yesterday after
noon Of the joint meeting of the child
| labor and compulsory education commit
tees of the Public Education Associa-
! tion of Washington
While the Public Education Associa-
ton is equally Interested in the child
labor bill and the compulsory education
hiN. 1t was the consensus of opinion
that the latter should be the FIRST object
OF the united efforts of the organization.
The compulsory education biu now pend
ing in the Senate was introduced last
December by Senator Gallinger, and
from the reports submitted at the meet
ing yesterday ii appears That the chief
objection 40 the measure is that the
schools OF washington are now crowd
cd and viii not accommodate any more
children.
This objection is not tenable. according
TO the committees, because they believe
the schools can accommodate b000 more
children, the number estimated TO be out
OF the school in the District of Columbia
However. the association is willing to
meet this objection on Its own ground.
Admitting that there is q lack of ac-
coDlmodationg, ii is an easy matter to
provide temporary quarters 1t is be-
lieved that hfty or more c!ergymen can
be found who will throw open their
Sunday school rooms free of expense to
the District in order to provide accom-
luodations until more schools fan be
erected.
All OF the ladies present yesterday
volunteered 40 call upon a number of
ministers OF their acquaintance and con-
fer with them about the matter.
