WILL ASK CONGRESS TO
LEAVE STRONGER FLEET
Promotion Committee to Urge
That Twelve Battleships
STAY on Coast

Recognizing that there are now two
front doors" to the United States and
that the Pacific entrance faces all the
important overseas possessions of the
nation, the California Promotion COM
mittee has invited the commercial
bodies of Alaska, Hawaii and the Phil
ippines to cooperate with 1t in per-
suading congress that the Atlantic is
not the only ocean needing proper
naval protection.
A strong appeal has been addressed
to the California delegation in con-
gress and to the commercial bodies of
Oregon. Washington. Nevada, Idaho.
Utah and Arizona and the oversee pos
sessions giving reasons, commercial
and strategical, why strong fleet
should be stationed on the western
coast of the continent and be there al
ways to protect vital interests OF the
country involved in the possession of
the Philippines, Guam, the Samoan
harbor and the vast coal and precious
mineral resources of Alaska as we'll
as the home ports from the sound to
San Diego.
AS a result Senator George c. Per-
kins, on the authority of Admiral Pills
bury, informs the committee that
eleven armored and protected cruisers
will remain in the Pacific, while eight
cen battleships will return to the at
lantic when the maneuvers of the yis-
iting fleet are finished. In reply the
California Promotion committee has
urged that IL first class battleships
and eight armored cruisers should be
permanently assigned to the Pacific
station.

Physicians Say He May Join
Fleet at Monterey

PASO ROBLES HOT SPRINGS, April
14-After remaining quietly in his
room for, several days as a result of
the recurrence of pain in his left knee,
Rear Admiral Robley D. Evans was
taken out today and wheeled to the
bathhouse. 1t was the first time that
he left his room since last Thursday
After being given a sulphur bath and
treatment he was taken back to his
room.
There was marked Improvement in
his appearance. His face was less
drawn. and in place of the pallor there
was a good fresh color. Surgeon p. E.
Mcdonald and DR.. L. E. Phillips. the
physician in charge of the springs. to-
night both expressed their qualification
over Admiral Evans progress.
The admiral remarked today that for
the first time since his arrival here he
was really feeling that he was gaining
strength and getting we'll. Admiral
Evans today received ex-Mayor James
d. Phelan of San Francisco, chairman
of the fleet reception committee of that
city, and Enrique Grau, the Peruvian
consul at San Francisco, who is the son
of the late Admiral Grau of the Peru
Wan navy. Mr.. Phelan told Admiral
Evans that while San Francisco hoped
that he would be able to bring the
fleet through the Golden gate as a fit-
ting finale to the great cruise and was
eager to receive him, should he not be
strong enough to resume command of
his feet by that time without danger OF
retarding his permanent recovery San
Francisco would be ready to give him
a worthy individual reception whenever
he was ready to come there.
Surgeon Mcdonald in answer to a
question from Mr.. Phelan said he hoped
to have the admiral so much better
by the time the feet arrived at Mon
terey that he would resume command

$4,000. I won't accept any money on
false pretenses and the funds will be
returned unless faith Is kept with Santa

G0MPERS ON INJUNCTION.
Tells Why He Will Not Comply With
All Its Terms.

Washington, Jan. 27.-A]though en-
Joined from making any reference to
the controversy between the American
Federation of Labor and the Buck
Stove and Range company President
Samuel Gompers, in an editorial in the
current issue of the American Fedora
zionist, comments on Justice Gould's
recent decision at great length and de-
clares a purpose not to comply with
all it's terms.
ut Is an invasion of the liberty of
the press and the right of free
Speech" declared Mr.. Gompers. 1--WE
would be recreant to our duty did we
not do all in our power to point out to
the people the serious invasion of
their liberties which has taken place."
Mr.. Gompers states that the serv-
ices of some Of the foremost lawyers
in the country have been secured and
that the case will be carried to the
United States supreme court.
l. The action against the Federation
Of Labor and It's officials was brought
in the supreme court of the District
of Columbia on the ground that the
publication of the stove company in
the 1--WE Don't Patronize'' list in the
American Federationist was in the

AWAITING AMERICAN REPLY
Jap Foreign Minister Postpones State
ment in Diet,


Toxic. Jan. 27-The programme for
tho days session of the diet, includ-
ing the speech of Foreign Minister
Vtscount Hayashi regarding the emf
grafton question, has been suddenly
changed and the speech was post
poned until Jan. 30, when it is expect
ed that V1scOunt Hayashi will outline
definitely the plans of the government
for the restriction of emigration to
America and Canada. It is understood
that the postponement was due to the
fact that a reply from the American
government to the last memorandum
from Japan was expected to be handed
to the foreign Office shortly
Since the delivery of it's last mem
orandum the Japanese government has
issued the most stringent instructions
to all governors and other officials
concerning the regulation of future
emigration along the lines of the fu-
ture definite policy of restriction,
which includes the prevention of emf
grafton of laborers to America and
Canada except under given conditions
which will be satisfactory to the gov
ernments of both of those countries.
No laborers will be permitted to emf
CRATE to Mexico.
Evidence of the determination of the
Japanese government is shown by an
official order issued to emigration
companies, wherein all emigration to
the Hawaiian islands is absolutely
prohibited except in the case of rela-
tives Of Japanese already residing
there

GUESTS ARE TERRIFIED.
Kentucky Night Riders Take Posses

SISu VI IlOlCls
Dawson Springs, KY, Jan. 27.-A
band of fifty masked night riders took
possession of the Arcadia hotel here
and after terrifying the guests by
"shooting up" the place took John
Heath, an independent tobacco buyer,
who was a guest, to a river near by
and upon threats of "ducking'' made
him promise not to sell any more
tobacco
The riders first tried to force the
night clerk to show them to Mr.
Heath's room, but this he declined TO
do. The men then scattered to all
parts of the hotel shooting as they
went. The guests, terrified by the
shooting, rushed from their rooms into
the halls only to be frightened back
Mr.. Heath was recognized by the
night ridersi as soon as he appeared
He was quickly seized and, although
dressed only in his nightshirt, was put
on 4 horse and taken to the river
about a mile away, where, after
threats of being whipped and thrown
into the river, he was forced to prom
Use that he would not sell any more
tobacco. He finally found his way
back to the hotel and the masked
riders disappeared.
