President.
COOLIES WILL BE KEPT OUT

Washington. Feb. 19.---Japanese

white schools Of Sau Francisco under
certain restrictions; skilled sand un-
skilled laborers coming from Japan
are to be barred from the mainland
of the United States and American la
borers. skilled and unskilled, are to
be excluded from Japan
This is the basis of the agreement
between President Roosevelt, secre-
tary Root, Mayor Schmitz and the
San Francisco school board as an ad-
justment of the anti-Japanese agi-
tation brought about by the segrega-
ton of Japanese children In the
schools of San Francisco.
The agreement means that the

Quoted in the same manner as before
the board OF education adopted a
resolution last October providing for
segregation of the Japanese. except
that adult Japanese who are in pri-
mary grades must continue to attend
Oriental schools and that japanese
children under &c years of age will
be admitted to classes with white
children of tneir own ages.
While the resolution of the school
board. rs amended, reads "children
of alien birth" it is freely admitted
by Mayor Schmitz and mis- associates
that the resolution will apply only
to Japanese children and that the
change in wording was to make it
plain O.. to the Toxic government that
no discrimination was intended
against Japanese children.
Mayor Schmitz and his associates
have received several hundred tele-
grams today congratulatlng them on
the satisfactory results of their ne
gotiadons with the president other
kilograms were received criticising
the mayor and the school board, de-
claring that the exclusion amendment
in the immigrant bill as passed by
the house today is unsatisfactory to
the people of the Pacific coast states.

New York, Feb. IA mistaken
lpublic opinion, misinformed as TO the
facts because Of the publication OF
lportions and not the whole Of the
testimony of the witnesses befcSt tho
interstate commerce commission. and,
therefore, basing its conclusions upon
insufficient premises, has done grave
injustice TO the whole service Of the
Pennsylvania Railroad company"
This, in brief, is the report of the
special committee appointed by the
board of directors of the Pennsylva-
Mia Railroad company nearly year
ago to examine into me facts connect
ed with the acquisition and owner
ship by officers and employees OF the
company the holding of which could
affect the performance of their duty
or the company's duty to the public.
The alleged acceptance of gratuities
by employees of the company was also
inquired into by the committee.
AS a ISSut vi It's iCAdlnlutllOH OF
2,5O5 officers and employees, includ-
ing every officer of the several COM
panies whose individual action or
whose order to amy subordinate could
effect any discrimination, the COM
mittee reports 1t found that 2GG had
interests in coal or other corpora
lions or firms or with individuals.
With the exception of fifteen al, of
these had acquired their interests by
purchase. The fifteen admitted that
they had received gifts of shares or
interests in various corporations, and
their names have been reported to
the presidents of the several railroad
companies for appropriate action.
Vindication of Officers.
On the whole the report vindicates
the officers and employees of the Penn
syivania system. It is found that in
the Development of the company be-
tween the years 1899 and 1907 the
interests of the stockholders in every
instance have been properly safe
guarded.

O'Clock and at O'Clock adjourned.
Eugene futile was brought into
the council chamber prior to the call

A petition for improving North

A petition for sidewalks and curbs
on Nineteenth street from Broadway

with instructions to bring in an ordi-
nance for the improvement.
The board of directors of the Home

Mayor Yeiser declared that roller
skating on city streets is getting to
be nuisance since boys of all colors
and ages have lately monopolzed the
pavements in many portions of the
city. Mayor Yeiser suggested some
action towards abating the nuisance,
and the ordinance committee was in
structed to bring in an ordinance
prohibiting skating in certain parts
of the city.
II would do nothing to prevent
pleasure and sport for the lttle fell
lows" Mayor Yeiser declared, ''but
this skating on city pavements mas
gotten so bad that pedestrians have
to leave the sidewalk in portions or
the city because skaters will not give
them room. This is especially true at
Seventh street and Broadway during
certain parts Of the day. Recently Z
saw two big negroes old enough to
be earning a living on skates"
Mayor Yeiser's suggestion is to
conflne skating to certain localities
and to children of a certain age. Lit
tie fellows he says, are not so much
nuisance but boys two-thirds
grown have taken to the sport and
do not seem as considerate as the lit
tie fellow. The council viii adopt
the ordinance as soon as the commit
tee drafts it.
