Insist Studying the Immigration
Bill Thoroughly
BY IRA e. BENNETT
WASHINGTON. Feb. IA

WASHINGTON, FEB. a.
In spite of the opposition that devel-
oped today in the Senate against the
immigration bill. it is pretty safe to pre-
dict that japanese exclusion is in sight.
Interviews by The Call correspond
ent with Senators. Bacon, Tillman and
other Southern Senators made clear the
fact that they have no objection what
ever to the passport amendment to the
bill. They favor the exclusion of Jap
anese and are ready to vote for the
amendment which will accomplish that
result. But they have decided objec-
tons to the passage of the immigration
bill until they can study it's provisions
affecting the South. If they should
reach the conclusion that the bill aims
to prevent the Southern States from
attracting foreign laborers by means
of immigration agents, they are likely
to make a determined fight, in which
case the Japanese amendment might
be delayed.
II have not the slightest objection to
the Japanese amendment" said SEN
ator Bacon. IF 1t were presented
separately it would not be delayed an
instant, so far as I am concerned, but
If 1t is being used as club with
which to drive through other legisla-
tion that is Objectionable to the South,
there will be a fight. There is no rea-
son even then why the Japanese
amendment should suffer. Let the Re
publicans offer the exclusion amend
ment as a joint resolution and it will
pass without trouble.
Republicans in the Senate criticise
Senator Lodge for trying to jam the
bill through in too big a hurry They
say he antagonizes Southern Senators
needlessly, but they do not believe the
fate of the bill is in doubt. They think
it may even pass tomorrow, or, at any
rate, within a few days. Senator Clay
of Georgia said his colleague and
Senator Tillman did not represent the
minority in this matter. He said he
saw no objection to the. bill In his
opinion there would be no filibuster,
nor even a long discussion. Senator
Lodge SCOTS at the opposition and be-
lieves the bill will be agreed to as
1t stands.
Mayor Schmitz and the San Fran
cisco School Board visited the CAPITOL
today and saw the working of the two
houses for a short time. Schrnitz said
he had received kilograms indicating
that the coast was ready to accept the
exclusion amendment without insist
ing upon an unyielding attitude on his
part as to the school controversy. He

The views Of ministers interviewed
last night are appended
Bishop William +. Nichols-The
streets are certainly in great need OF
being cleaned. No one need miss
church on that account, as there will
be plenty of opportunity for people to
go to church also.
Rev William RAIDER of the Third
Congregational Church-No. 1 have no
objection on the ground that the bet
ter the day the better the deed" There
might be objection If ii would debar
from going to church, but 1t need not
do that. 1 would suggest that Wash
ington's birthday would be good day
for cleaning the streets, but 1 am
heartily in favor OF the majority do
ing anything TO better the community,
even If it should be on Sunday.
Rev. John Hemphill. Calvary Presby-
terian Church-The Bible, as I under
stand 1t, recognizes work of necessity
or mercy on Sunday. II it could be
done on some other day, it would be
better, but, if not, 1t seems to me it
is work OF necessity, for the streets
are in very bad condition. 1t would
be better, II it were possible, to start
in on Monday and work every day until
the Job were completed. But each man
must decide for himself whether it is

Rev. F. w. Clampett. Trinity Episco-
pal Church-On the ground that it is
q necessity, that it is something for
the Improvement OF the city, I certain
ly would support It.
Rev c. c. Smoot, Second Unitarian
Church-In view Of the fact that there
would be a suspension of traffic and
oraying on that day, I would favor
the cleaning of streets on Sunday nv
the people at large. 1t is certain that
something needs to be done, for the
streets are in a deplorable condition.
The city authorities seem utterly unable

was made for man, and not man for

Rev. Cecil Marrack. ST. Stepben's
Episcopal Chureh-It is too much n

city The future San Francisco must
be built upon more enduring foun-

men are showing their contempt for
spiritual things. Such an act as this
would brand the whole community. Let
the noise of the saws and hammers

Burke VIII he Ready for Hearing OF
Monday.

Burke VIII BE Ready for Hearing on
Monday.
The city's answer to the petition of
the Government in the school case is
not due in the Supreme Court until
Monday. 1t is already prepared. how
ever, and the City Attorney will only
wait developments at Washington be-
fore filing it On the Thursday follow
ing the departure of Mayor Schmitz
and the School Board for Washington,
United States District Attorney Devlin
wired the Attorney General for instruc-
proceed with the school case pending
the outcome of the conferences then in
prospect At the time no conference
had been held, and DevEn was instruct
ed to proceed unless instructed to the
contrary" Contrary instructions have
not been forthcoming, and Devlin has
made ready to enter court on Monday
and combat the City Attorneys de-
murrers and answer.
The demurrers will oppose the state
ment OF two facts pleaded by the Gov
ernment-the one as to the interpre-
tation of 'Mongolian" in the California
code, the other as to the pleading in
the Japanese case that the pupil was
Disseminated against because he had
to travel fourteen blocks to the ORR
entail school, whereas it was only six
blocks from his home to the Redding
Primary, white school, from which
the child was debarred-
The code provides that there are GER
tain matters upon which the court may
assume judicial knowledge. Assistant
City Attorney Baggett thinks that un-
der this provision the Supreme Judges
will hold that they are aware Of the
meaning of the word Mongolian and
cognizant of the fact that distance
from a school does NOT affact the
classification of scholars in the sense
argued by the Japanese. If the court
so rules there will be no occasion for
the taking of testimony in either par
ticular, and the case, on it's law points,
may proceed to hearing on Monday

PARIS CAPITALISTS
To INVEST HERE

Important negotiations, long pending,
for the permanent relocation of the
White House were brought to a close
yesterday when Raphael WE'LL signed
a twenty-year lease for the premises
owned by the Phelan estate at south
east corner of Sutter street and Grant
avenue. An important feature of the
transaction lies in the fact that the
money for the 100000 building to be
erected on the site will be supplied by
Lazard Freres of Paris, one of the
largest banking houses of Europe. The
confidence of French capital in the fut-
ure of San Francisco will serve as a
further stimulus to building operations
throughout the city.
The ground on which the building
will stand has a frontage of 275 feet
on Sutter street and 1875 feet on the
avenue. The area embraced is 100, 900
square feet. The basis of valuation for
the land is 100000.
The Phelans will erect for Mr.. WE'LL
class A building of FIVE stories, in
cluding a basement twelve feet high.
It will be ready within eighteen
months.
BY mutual agreement the building
is to be constructed under the direction
of Albert Pissis, architect, and upon
the amount of money expended on the
building, together with the basis value
of the real estate, the White House will
pay rental.
The chief delay in the negotiations
was caused by the aversion of one of
Phelans sisters to the borrowing of
money to erect the building. Cable
correspondence between WE'LL and the
Lazard Freres banking house resulted
in a response from the bankers that
they would readily supply $500, ,00O

Paris bankers had such complete con-
fldence in the future of San Francisco.
they offered to build and WE'LL accept

Speaking of the result last night, Mr..
WE'LL remarked: I'm view of the as
sured expansion of San Francisco. 1

LOSES BUSINESS IN ORIENT
American Manufacturing Firm Is Huri
by japanese Compefition


WASHINGTON. Feb. 14-Represen-
tative Kahn returned today from Bos-
ton. where he had spoken on the jap
anese question before the Middlesex
Club. He made a telling point as to
Japanese competition with American
manufacturers by producing a letter
sent to him by the president of the
Colts Patent Firearms Manufacturing
Company, explaining how 1t had been
compelled to abandon its business in
the Orient. This letter was as follows:
HON. JULIUS KAHN. House of Representatives

favor of the 18th inst. also the newspaper clip

clipping referring to the market for the product

pany in the Far East having been practically
destroyed Is true; also the report Of the British
army officer, although he did not make the in
reported that he found in Southern China a
Chinese arms factory under the superintendency
of Japanese, which was manufacturing the Colt
automatic guns. 1t was also reported to us that
the Japanese previous to their war with Russia
manufactured large number of Colt auto
matte and Gattling guns at the armorIes in
Japan, and this we have every reason to be-
have received inquiries for machine guns
from the Far East. 1t is well known that
with a little teaching the japanese make very
skillful mechanics, and the low rate Of wages In
China and Japan makes it impossible for the
American manufacturer to compete with them.

Presidents Solution of Japanese Ques-
ton Opposed by League

said he believed the proposal to estab-
llsh separate Japanese school would
meet the approval of Japanese. He
indicated that he believed it was best
for all concerned that any action taken
should be with the knowledge and con-
sent of the Congressional delegation.
one or two members of the delega-
tlon are angry because they were not
invited by the President to participate
IN the conferences with the San Fran
cisco authorities. They have no
grievance against Schmitz or his party,
however, and are working to secure
the passage of the bill in the House
The sudden development of a full
hedged filibuster resulted today in the
Senate. when an attempt was made
to force the adoption of the confer
ence agreement on the immigration
bill Expressing sympathy with this
object, yet regarding the report with
suspicion on other points, Bacon and
Tlllman voted to have action delayed
until tomorrow. that they might study
the report. When this was refused the
filibustering began Bacon held the
floor two and a half hours. Tillman
said he was prepared to make a ten
day fight on the floor against the re-
port, because he objected to being run
over by an automobile.
A truce was declared until tomorrow
bl lHO SuSBSSllOn OF senator SpOOnSr,
when the report will again come up
for consideration.
From telegraphic reports 1 receive
from San Francisco" Mayor Schmitz
said, the newspapers have changed
their tactics and are now inclined to
give us a fair deal The sentiment of
the coast people has changed since
they are satisfied that we are trying to
bring about a solution of the school
question that will be for the best in
terests of the State of California. The
tone of the messages we are now re-
ceiving is praise, rather than criti-
cisn."
Mayor Schmitz's proposition for
separate schools for the japanese chill
dren has been submitted to the Toxic
Government and the Japanese embassy
hopes to be able to deliver the Mikado's
answer to Secretary Root tomorrow
morning. If this suggestion is not ac-
ceptable to Japan. Mayor Schmitz and
the School Board will agree to abol-
ish the Oriental schools in San Fran

If tomorrow's conference results in
an agreement, as expected, President
Roosevelt may issue an official state

CHILDREN GUESTS
Of THE ELKS

Five thousand children, mostly from
the refugee camps, were the guests of
the Elks yesterday afternoon at the
Chutes Everything was free The lit
tie ones shot the chutes, rode on the
scenic railway and sailed down the
hume time and time again, laughine
and shouting with joy. There was pop
corn and bag of candy for each of the
little guests. 1t was q gala day in the
history OF childhood in San Francisco.
Even the street car ride to and from
the Chutes was free.
In the evening the Elks themselves
took possession Of the pleasure grounds.
A special feature of the performance at
the theater was the singing of Miss
Eta O'Brien, a niece OF J. H Keefe. a
member Of the order. The money real
lied during the evening will go into a
special Elks, fund for the entertain
ment of the children.
