JAPAN ACTS
Her Ambassador Recalled in Order 10 Explain About the
 Japanese Immigration
IT LOOKS SUSPICIOUS

Washingon, Dec. 3.-Ambassador Aoki has been summoned to Japan by his government to explain personally and in detail the precise situation in this country in regard to the Japan csc immigration problem.
 The ambassador has been making careful inquiry of his own account and through the various Japanese consular officers into the extent Of the reported race feeling existing in some sections of the United States towards Japanese immigrants. Al- ready Baron Ishii, one of the secre- taries of the Japanese interior de- partment has made an investigation of conditions existing not only h but also in British Columbia on the north, upon which he has based q special report to his government. But it is believed that the purpose of the Japanese government in summoning Viscount Aoki to Tokio is to secure from him information which Baron Ishii could not possibly have acquir- ed during his short stay in AmeriCa regarding the attitude of the admin istration here with particular reter- ence to the measures of which have recently been applied by the Japanese government to restrict the departure from Japan for America of the coolie element. Also the Japanese govern ment desires a prudent forecast of the likelihood of congressional action in the direction of legislation providing for the exclusion of Japanese imml- grafton.
 At the Japanese embassy it is stat ed that the ambassador will prob ably leave Washington for Iokio by way of San Francisco or Victoria in about a fortnight. a fact of whicf: he yesterday notified the president and Secretary Root. There is no intima- tion that he is not to return to Washingon. During his absence Mr Miyaoka, the counsellor of embassy, will be In charge of the affairs.

CORONER BUSY
Has Not Yet Finished Taking the Testimony Concerning DeaIbS
 of Trolley Victims.

Deputy Coroner Walter D. Make peace stated to-day that as yet he had nothing to give out regarding the ac- cident at the West Main street cross ing on Friday morning. He is still conducting the investigation, and al- though it was expected that he would be finished taking testimony by this evening. it now looks as though he will have to continue to examine witnesses to-mOrrow. The investiga- tiOn. which is now going more slow ly than the first couple of days, was held in the office of the deputy cor oner. When he conferred with the railroad authorities to-day is q Ques- ton which he did not care to ans wer. Neither did he know whether the railroad men were holding an- other investigation of their own.

SUITS ARE COMING
Trolley Victims Are Retaining Attorneys 10 Look After
 Their Cases.

Almost every lawyer in town has a claim pending against the Connecti. cut company on account of the acci- dent which occurred on the West Main street crossing last Friday morning killing five and injuring about two dozen.
 Attorney Carmody represents the estate of Jane Kelly, who was killed and her sister, Teresa, who is in the hospital with an injured ankle.
 Friends of Sarah Ryan, who was killed, have placed a claim with At torney Guilfoile to recover for her es- tate. It is said this girl would have been in Ireland, her native home, weeks ago, had not the banks availe( themselves of the three months clause. Miss Ryan's cousins, Klttie and Bridget Hanley, have also re- tained Attorney Guilfoile and so has Mrs Elizabeth Brophil of North Main street
 Attorney Bobbin has two claims for injuries and yesterday Attorney Nc Evoy settled for one.
 Mrs Mary Lehr of 113 Johnson avenue has given her case to Attor- ney Lynch. This woman started of on days washing and was unable to speak when picked up. She Is only recovering her speech.
 Attorney Slavin has two cases. in fact it seems that every lawyer in town has a case or two arising out of that terrible accident. In the case of those who were killed outright only $5,OO0 can be recovered if it is proved that the car crew was neg lectful, for that is all the law al- lows for instanteous death. In the case Of injuries 1t is different, dam- ages being awarded in case the com pany is found responsible, according to the earning capacity of the injured party before the accident occurred that deprived him of his full earn ings.
 Claim agents and claim attorneys for the company have visited mostiy all Of those injured and the friends of those who were killed.

ENDS THIRD TERM TALK.
President Roosevelt Again Says H,
 Will Not Be a Candidate.

''Se'oenI nooSeVeit RgaIn Says He
 Will Not Be Candidate.
 Washington, Dec. 3.-In words suffi- ciently emphatic to satisfy the most persistent advocates of his renomina- ton President Roosevelt once more has made it plain that he will not be a can. didate.
 "l won't deviate one single point from the announcement I have al- ready made" said the president to Representative Hinshaw of Nebraska, who came to tell him that the people of that state wished him to run again for the presidency.
 This is the most direct and positive statement that has been made by the president on the subject of the third term since his election in 1904.
 A poll made by the New York World of Al Republican senators and rep- resentatives shows a slight majority in the negative on the question of whether President Roosevelt will be renOminated. The vote is twenty eight to twenty-two. But there are six who say that circumstances may make his nomination necessary. Eighty-five did not want to express an opinion.
 Thirty-four. of those interviewed think that if MT. Roosevelt is not nomi- mated he will not dictate the nominee nor the policies of the party. Sixteen believe that he will, while four say that he will not dictate, but that his policies will be indorsed.

NONE IS ALIVE
TWeUiy.Sevel Bodies Already Taken Out of the Naomi Mine
 in Fayelte City.

Pittsburg, Pa, Dec 3.-The bodies of twentyseven of the miners caught by an explosion of fire damp Sunday | night in the Naomi mine of the United Coal company, located near Fayette City, B miles south of this city, had been reached by the rescuers at o'clock this morning. The bodies were burned and charred almost be- yond recognition.
 The rescuers are now nearing the end of the workings. and they have found no signs of life anywhere. In the opinion of the owners of the smine. few, if any. more victims will be found. Among miners and others in the village there is belief that the total number of victims is between 10 and 70.
 After finding II bodies near the 29th entry shortly before midnight, the rescuers went to work with renewed energy to explore the remaining seven entries.
 There are 36 entries in all and un- til the last of these has been searched, the full extent of the disaster will not be known Because of the ac- emulation of gas. the work of rescue in the remote sections of the mine is greatly impeded.
 X second explosion is constant menace and every precautiOn Is being taken to avert such a catastrophe.
 Scores of frenzied women constant " surround the pit mouth and the special detail of officers have much trouble in preventing them from in terfering with the work of the rescu- CTS
 The physicians present have been in almost constant requiSitiOn on behalf of the rescuers who. despite the fact that they work in relays. only q frac- tiOn of an hour. are constantly being prOstrated by the fumes of gas. X number of the rescurers have been taken from the scene in a serious con- ditiOn.

Woman Breaches Race Suicide.

New York, Dec. 3.-''It is not charity we want. Too much is being done now for the poor in New York city," cried Mrs. J. H. Crossman to the Wo- mems Peace circle at the Hotel Astor. What we need is the suppression of unnecessary reproduction. When par ents cannot support their children it is crime to bring them into the world. Oh, I know what I'm talking about! I taught for number of years in a mis- sion, and saw the life of the slums, and instead of paying for a mission now would give $1,000 for a rational suppression of the large families of the poor"
