Washington, March 12.-J. Pierpont
Morgan conferred with President
Roosevelt for an hour and a half on
the railroad problems Of the country.
The result of the conference was that
President Roosevelt agreed to the
suggestion MADE by Mr.. Morgan that
he meet, to discuss general railroad
affairs as affected by the railroad rate
law, with President McCrea of the
Pennsylvania, President Newman of
the New York Central, President Mel

Mr.. Morgan told the president that
the railroads Of the country are not
In an antagonistic mood concerning
the rate bill; In fact, that they wished
1t enforced and desired to cooperate
with the government to this end. He
suggested that the president meet the
railway presidents mentioned with a
view to finding some common ground
for cooperation, which would be bene-
fetal both to the people and the roads.

WOULD DELAY ACTION
PRESIDENT ASKS CALIFORNIA
LAWMAKERS TO SUSPEND
JAP LEGISLATION.

Sacramento. Cal, March 12.-Presi.
dent Roosevelt has again appealed to
the legislature of California to stop all
Japanese legislation. The president
has sent a telegram to Governor Gil
lette urging that the legislature sus-
pend all Japanese legislation and ex-
pressing the fear that the action Of
the senate Saturday in passing the
two Japanese bills and a resolution
may render ineffective his efforts 20
secure exclusion Of Japanese laborers
by friendly agreement with japan.
The governor transmitted the presi-
dents telegram to the assembly, where
action was to have been taken on the
two bills and the resolution adopted
by the senate, with a message recon-
mending and urging that the presi-
dents request be acceded to.
On Stanton's motion the assembly
by a viva voce vote decided to take no
action on the bills on file.

The entire after part Of the lena
was blown to pieces. The bodies OF
the victims were hurled through the

panic-stricken workmen at the arsenal
fed from the vicinity Of the drydock
for their lives. Scores of those on

there was no indication of the APP
preaching end. He received a few
followers and prayed for some people.
His condition seemed to be about the
same as for the last two or three
weeks. One of the attendants re-
NAMED with him until midnight and
was relieved by the other attendant.
Shortly before / a. m. Dowie became
delirious and his talk was the same
as at a religious meeting in the days
of his prime. He denounced people
with the old time vigor, ordered the
guards to throw out disturbers and
acted just as he had on so many pre-
vious occasions. He gradually became
weaker and weaker and the attendant
telephoned for Judge ID. N. Barnes,
who reached Shiloh House at Z a. m.
Forty minutes later Dowie died.

BLOW FOR DEFENSE
COURT ALLOWS THE BROTHER.IN.
LAW OF STANFORD WHITE
TO TESTIFY.

New York, March 13.-District At
torney Jerome has played his strong
est card in his effort to convict Harry
Thaw of the murder OF Stanford
White. This evidence came to his
knowledge but a few days ago and
caused him to abandon the idea OF
sending Whites slayer TO a madhouse
and to try for a straight out convic.
Non under the criminal statutes. The
evidence came from Mrs. Stanford
Whites brother, James Clinch Smith,
who told a remarkably clear, ~succinct
story of the events of Madison Square
Garden the night White was killed and
OF a long conversation he had with
Thaw just prior to the shooting.
1t seems that Thaw sat for some
time with Smith during the fateful
first performance of "Mam'selle Cham.
payne" and discussed with him a
variety of topics in a manner, Mr..
Smith declared, such as any sane man
would talk. Mr.. Smith gave the con
versation in detail, emitting nothing,
ne dSSeTLeu.
With the brother.inlaw Of the man
who was so soon TO be a victim of his
pistol, Thaw discussed the play, Wall
street, common acquaintances, plans
for the summer and many other
things, including a 'buxom brunette
whom Thaw declared he was anxious
to have Smith meet. Thaw said he
and his wife were going abroad later
In the summer. There was no hint
anywhere In the repeated converse
ton of Thaw's intent to infict bodily
harm upon anyone. Mr.. Smith did
say, however, that Thaw, not having
a reserved seat, roamed around the
garden and continually looked In the
direction Of the spot where he subse-
~quently killed Stanford White.
