CAuIFORNIANS HOPEFUL

POINT IN CONTROVERSY
WITH THE PRESIDENT.

Washington, Feb 12.-The con-
ference between the President and
the California delegation was con-
cluded last evening. Mayor Schmitz
made the statement that although
they had still further discussed the
question, nothing definite had been
accomplished and that there would
be another meeting subjected to the
call OF the President. This meeting
will probably be held tomorrow.
In an interview today Congress
man Hayes OF California said: I'VE
all believe that a satisfactory con-
cluslon of the japanese question will
be reached by the San Francisco
delegation headed by Mayor Schmitz
at the meeting with the President.
The people OF California are unduly
excited by the misleading reports
from the East They seem to believe
that they are going to give something
away, when as a matter OF fact they
will get all they are contending for.

Francisco believed they were melting

New York, Feb. 12.-The opening
OF the fourth week Of the Thaw trial
brought new order Of things, in the
courtroom and all women other than
the half dozen active newspaper writ
ers who have followed the case since
the beginning were barred by order
OF Justice Fitzgerald.
District Attorney Jerome, on de-
mand of Mr.. Delmas, produced the
note Mrs. Thaw passed to her hus-
band in the Cafe Martin on the night
of the tragedy. The note reads:
"The D wts here a minute
ago. but went out again"
Mrs. Thaw explained that the "B"
meant "blackguard" and referred to
Stanford White.
In the afternoon session OF the
Thaw case it was agreed by counsel
that Mrs. Evelyn Thaw should step
aside as a witness to permit the in
PRODUCTION Of competent testimony
tending to show the alleged Insane
condition OF the prisoners mind. This
action was taken after the repeated
objections of District Attorney Je-
rome to further questioning OF the
witness as to conversations between
her and the defendant concerning
Stanford White had been sustained
by the court, and Justice Fitzgerald
had intimated that counsel should
follow the spirit OF the courts rul-
ings as laid down in specific in
stances.
Mr.. Jerome's objections were
based on the ground that the testl-
mony Of Mrs. Thaw had gone far
enough without a better foundation
showing insanity on the part of the
defendant being made.
The recalling OF Mrs. Thaw to the
stand followed the testimony Of j.
Lyon, vice-president of the Union Ma
tional Bank OF Pittsburg, who de-
clared he had possession Of Harry
Thaw's will until late in November,
1906, and the testimony of John B.
Gleason of rhaw's counsel, who went
on as a witness to say that he re-
ceived by mail from Pittsburg, De-
cember Il, 1906, the will in ques-
ton.
Mr.. Jerome expressed willingness
to admit that the will received by
Mr.. Lyon passed directly to Mr. Glea-
son, who has testified that there had
been no changes made in the will.
In the course OF the afternoon pro
oeedings Mr. Delmas said that the
statements made that the defense
would consume several weeks yet
was untrue. But little more time
would be taken up.

BILL INTRODUCED
GOVERNMENT MEASURE PRE-.
SENTED IN COMMONS.
RADICALS ARE DISAPPOINTED
Bill Confers Little self-Government
Upon ireland, but Unionists Regard
II as Step Toward Home Rule.
Redmond Leads in Fight.

London, May S.-Thc Irish council
bill, the object of which is TO provide
for the establishment and functions
of an administrative council at Dub.
lin. was introduced in the house of
commons by the chief secretary for
Ireland. Mr.. Birrcll, before an audi.
enc which crowded every corncr of
the mouse.
The measure confcrs little self gov
eminent upon ireland, merely giving
to the council the control of The eight
departments now managed by govern.
mcnt boards. The council is to he ap.
pointed by the crown and while the
lord lieutenant Of ireland is given
power TO nullify It's measures, he
crown retains control Of five of the
eight departments, including the %
%staDulary. The control of this branch
always has been a thorn in the flesh
OF the Irish people.
This halfway measure is wholly
pleasing to no political party. Tho
unionists regard ii as a step toward
home rule. They object to giving
Ireland the management of many dc.
partments of local affairs while the
! irish members Of commons retain the
right to legislate in similar affairs for
England and Scotland. They criticise
also the plan of government as com
plicated and cumbersome. The rad.
icals are disappointed that the meas.
ure falls so short of actual home rule,
The Irish leaders, however, are
maintaining n diplomatic attitude until
they have time to study the provisions
of the bill and learn the sentiment
Of the people.
A nationalist convention will he
held in Dublin soon to decide upon the
Irish party policy. The labOrites will
support the measure, because they arc
all home rulers.
The bill passed its first reading by
4l6 votes TO III.
After the bill had been presented
and explained by Mr.. Birrell it was
ridiculed by A. j. Balfour on behal
Of the opposition.
John Il. Redmond then delivered
brilliant speech, giving a dignified ant
~forccful exposition Of Ireland's claims
for complete home rule.

charged with the murder of former
Governor Steunenberg, he Will bring
such evidence to the attention OF the

any. as it may be in the power OF the
federal authorities to take.
The communication was the formal
reply Of the president to the union
committee which recently called on

set forth in general his attitude toward
the accused men and specifically why
he had referred to Meyer and Hay
wood as undesirable C~itl2ens.'

less life of dissipation and gambling.
At times his losses ut the gaining table
even compelled him to part with his

favorite violin and is the one he left
TO the city Of Genoa, where ii is cNhib-
tied in the municipal palace. The
threatened loss of this instrument
cured him of gambling. According to
