Washington, June. 16.-That the
senate committee on finance has been
engaged in playing "a game of petty
politics" IA defiantly charged in the
senate by Senator Burkett of Ne
braska. The assertion was made in
connection with q report by the com
mittee reducing from 10000, 900 to
10000. 900 the number of cigars which
may be imported free of duty annual

burst and he spoke with apparently
strong feeling.
=, AS soon as the committee had
brought in it's amendment Senator La
Toilette took the floor, expressing
qualification that the finance commit
tee had reduced the number of free
cigars to the extent of 5000, 900 less
than was called for by his amend
ment. Mr.. La Toilette said he was en-
as to provide for the admission OF
only GO,000,O00 and he did so.
Committee Roundly Denounced.
1t was then that Mr.. Burkett took
the floor. Roundly denouncing the
finance committee he declared that
it's action in making changes in the
Philippine amendment was sufficient
to cause senators to lose confidence III
it. The original amendment, he said,
had been brought into the senate as
approved by the president, but in the
face of that fact the committee had
brought in this recommendation for
a reduction to 70,000,000 in accord
ance with Mr.. Bulkeley's request. He
pointed out that the number was s.
100000 below the reduction called for
by the La Toilette amendment and in
this circumstance found cause for
complaint. This" ne said, "is a mat
ter too important to juggle with and
it looks to me like a game of petty
politics."
There is no mystery about it," pro-
tested Mr.. Aldrich, "and no politics
except a desire on the part of the
committee to do the right thing and,
above everything else. to pass this
bill"

by the Republican members OF his
committee. He added that he did not
object to senators taking a course to
conform to their own views. The
committee would change its views, he
said, when senators could bring forth
any testimony to show that the com
nlittee had made a mistake.

COURTESY FLASHED
JAPANESE AT SEA
Messages Exchanged Between
Chamber of Commerce and
Commissioners

''Gokigonyo' and '.arigatow1 have
been exchanged between the San Fran
cisco chamber of commrce, in the Mer-
chants Exchange building, and Baron
Shibusawa, chairman of the honorary
commercial commission from Japan,
in the steamer Chiyo Maru, which is
now some 1,5o0 miles away, and bound
for the land of cherry blossoms. James
,McNab, as president of the local or
ganization, sent the message of good
will by wireless Friday night, and
Baron Shibusawa replied yesterday
morning. When the baron received the
message he was 900 miles out at sea;
when he sent his reply he was 1920
miles away.
Here is the aerogram from San Fran
cisco:
Baron shibusawa Chiyo Maru May the
ocean which unites us be pacific in nature as in
name giving you all safe passage to your
homes and giving always friendly communica-
tion in all aar social and commercial rela-
lions. Gokigenyo.
And here is Baron Shibusawas reply:

joying splendid voyage We gratefully remeni-
her our pleasant days spent with you Arigatow-
SIIIBUSAWA.
Gokigenyo means bon voyage and
arigatow means thank you. The
chiyo Maru sailed from this port for
Japan last Tuesday
