RIOTS BRING
EXCLUSION
VANCOUVER DISORDERS MAY BE
OF ADVANTAGE
LIKELY TO AFFECT LAWS ON
IMMIGRATION
Japanese Government is Expected to
Recognize Fact That Coolies Must
Be Barred from Pacific
Coast Cities
By Associated Press.

BY Associated Press
WASHINGTON, Sept 10.-That strin-
gent exclusion treaty between America
and Japan is measurably nearer realiza-
ton than the most optimistic administru-
ton official could have believes fortyr
eight hours ago is the judgment Of the
members of the diplomatic corps here.
This long sought object is expected to
be attained perhaps as an indirect result
of the mobbing of the Japanese at Van
couver, B. c. officials here deplore what
they view as an unfortunate and unwar-
ranted infraction of the treaty rights OF
the Japanese, but they do not fail to per-
ceive at once the important bearing that
this incident will probably have upon the
negotiations between the state depart
ment and the Japanese ambassador LOOK
ing to the drafting of a treaty that shall
limit the incoming of Japanese coolies In
stead of allowing the subject to be dealt
with in the present loose fashion by wnat
amounts to semi-offical undertakings on
the part of the Japanese government to
withhold passports to coolies coming di-
rectly to the United States.
The belief that a treaty Is now within
sight is based on the conviction of officials
that the Japanese government will now
be brought face to face with the fact that
as it cannot discriminate between Great
Britain and America in the matter Of de-
and must by this time be convinced that
the problem presented is really radical
one, the only solution will be In the formal
recognition by Japan of the right to re-
strict coolie immigration not only in
America but in British Columbia, Aus
tralia and other British colonies.
Would Be Breach Of Alliance
To take any other view. it is pointed
out here, would mean a breach Of the
alliance of which the Japanese have been
SO proud and which they regard as so
necessary to the development of their
ambitious schemes for the exploitation OF
the east.
For. though the British government may
and doubtless will apologize for the Van
couver affair and even pay an indemnity.
a repetition of the incident is believed 70
be almost certain unless the British gov
| ernment yields to the demands Of the
British Columbians in the matter OF re-
| stricting Japanese immigration AS a
] matter of fact, negotiations are already
on foot between the British and the jap
anese governments to regulate the influx
of coolie labor into the British colonies.
The Vancouver incident will. 1t is be-
Ilieved here, hasten these negotiations to a
conclusion, and If Japan enters into treaty
relations of that kind with Great Britain
ii cannot refuse TO do so with America SO
that there is after all prospect that

Boise, Dec. 24.-After the state had

send the case to the jury with instruc-

he will either instruct the jury to
acquit or in refusing to do his will
send the case to the jury under in

of Orchards story is not required. If
the charge of conspiracy has been
established.
Judge Wood held that there had
not been sufficient evidence of COR

to commit series of crimes which
included the killing involved. cannot
be established by uncorroborated evil

Washington, Dec. 24.-President
Roosevelt is taking great interest in
the Pacific Coast defense and has
held a series of conferences with
representatives and senators from
that section yesterday.
1t is believed that the president
wishes to bestir western men to get
the necessary appropriations for the
Improvement of the defenses.
San Francisco is one of the best
defended cities in the world and needs
little, but San Diego has one of the
best harbors in the world and by the
expenditure of little money, about
$150,000, could be given a 30-foot
channel.
Representative Humphrey put the
need of defense on Puget sound very
plainly to the president The presi-
dent urged the visitors to work for
the Hawaiian defenses.

SIGNS POINT TO DEADLOCK.
Oregon Delegation VIII be Divided OH
Choice of Successor to Bristol

Washington, Dec. 24.-Indications
point to a deadlock in the Oregon
delegation over the nomination for a
man to succeed District Attorney
Bristol. Senator Bourne is expected
to stand pat for Scheubel, regardless
of the intention of the remaining
members not to indorse him.
An effort will be made to have a
meeting this week with a view of de-
manding a recommendation before
Senator Fulton leaves for Oregon.
He will leave here this week for New
York and then go to Oregon to re-
main until the close of the recess.
Fulton say the president yesterday
morning but did not duscuss the at
torneyship. He declines to discuss
Heney's visit.

Twelve right of way deeds filed
with the county recorder today lend
color to the report that an electric
line is to be built from Walla Walla
to the Wallowa country. Such a
road has been dreamed of for several
years by people of the Garden City
and the fact that right of way deeds
are being secured indicates that at
least some actual move is being
made.
This morning he Washington Pow
er & Traction company, of which NJ.
Baumister is president, and E. S.
Isaacs secretary, filed the first right
of way deeds to land in his county.
The deeds are all given for the con-
sideration Of 81 and are from the
Matthias Jepson. Samuel Drumheller,
Agnes Dreeze, John X. Wilson, Ed
win A. Reser, Anna link, ]. A. Hood,
Hugh McCool, Frank b. Morse ana
S. w. Smith.
All OF those. from whom deeds
have been secured live southeast of
Walla Walla and east Of the present
interurban line from Walla Walla to
Milton. AS the section Is a sparsely
settled one it is hardly possible that
the concern intends to merely run
line out into the country so the only
other conclusion possible is that the
road is headed for Wallowa.
The plans for the Wallowa electric
line call for line across the noun
tain to the Grand Ronde river. 1t
would then extend down that stream
to the mouth of the Wallowa and
thence up the Wallowa to the fertile
Wallowa valley and the lake at the
head.
By the agreements filed today the
company secures right of way so
feet wide and in turn promises 10
construct and maintain an interurban
motor railway out of Walla Walh
through the route secured within two
years time. However should they
be delayed in the work through the
acts of God, by strikes or inability
to secure material further time may
be secured.

LAST HOURS Of BUSY HOLIDAY TRADE

"There is nothing wrong with
business in Pendleton," said one man
today, who during the past few weeks
has visited in several northwest cities
of smaller size and declares that no.
where are conditions better than
here. With its clean paved streets
and crowded streets and walks the
town has been the admiration of
more than one visitor and If there are
any who look with pessimistic eyes
the fault lies in their sight rather
than in the scene.
Tonight all the stores of the city
will remain open late and 1t Is prob
able that some of them will not close
their doors until it Is nearly tomor-
row. However. clerks and proprie-
tors may all take good rest tomor-
row, for 1t is the general intertion OF
all stores to remain closed on Christ
mas day.
