resolution aroused active resentment
only in the columns Of the second-rate
press, The leading newspapers In com
mentIng on the resolution pointed out
the fact that Nevada was a small State
and did not necessarily represent the
sentiment OF the American people.
Foreign Minister komorua, in ad.
dressing the House OF Lords to-day. re-
peated verbatim the speech he made In
the Diet few days ago: His remarks
cauHed no discussion. The absence of
extended comment on the situation in
the japanese newspapers Is believed to
be due to the resolutions OF the New
York Board of Trade and President
Roosevelt's letters and kilograms TO

have been fully reported TO the local
Notwithstanding the improved tone OF
the press, II Is quite evident that the
recent action OF the California and
Nevada Legislatures has created feel

in the official element which is calcu-
lated to damage the position OF the
United States with Japan. which form

RUSSIA MAKES
A NEW FIGHT TO
GET Jan POUREN
Counsel for Cars Govern
ment Asks for More Time
to Produce Evidence.
THE REFUGEE OBJECTS.
His Lawyers Assert That the
State Department Is Inter-
fering in the Case.
THE REFUGEE OBJECTS.

The Russian Government, through It's
counsel. Frederic R, Coudert, to-day
asked for a sixty days extension OF time
in which to get the evidence from Rus
STA to prove that Jan Pouren. the
refugee. was guilty OF extrad!table Of
lenses and should be deported to stand
trial in Russia. The motion was OPP
posed by Simon Pollock and Prof. Isaac
Hourwich. appearing for the defendant
Prof. Hourwich declared that the Rus
sian Government had far exceeded the
! time that should be allowed 10 prepare
the case. He contended that the limit
was forty days from the time OF the
mans arrest and that further extern
sion OF twenty days was all that could
be granted. The case has now been on
for more than four months, and ne asked
United States Commissioner Samuel NJ
Hitchcock to close the case at once.
State Department PIoa.
Mr.. Coudert and his assistant, John
Murray, brought out the point that the
State Department had asked that the
Russian Government be given every OPP
portunity to get In Its testimony. AS
sistant United States Attorney Dorr was
present on behalf Of the State Depart.
ment.
In rebuttal Prof. Hourw!ch declared
that the department had no right to In
terfere after the proceedings had started.
and In corroboration Of this he produced
q letter from Elihu Root, dated Jan. 10,
In which the Secretary Of State said
that the department and the President
had no right to interfere In the case,
as 1t was following the usual judicial
course and the executive branches had
no authority to infringe upon the pre-
negatives OF another branch OF the
Government. This letter was written TO
President Roosevelt when he referred
to the State Department a petition from
the American Federation Of Labor
pleading for clemency for Pouren.
The defendants counsel commended
that as the State Department had no
authority 10 interfere alter the matter
was placed in the hands OF United
States Commissioner, It had no right
to thrust itself into the case, practi-
cally as IN aid to the Russian Govern
ment
No Mention Of Roosevelt.
He made no mention Of the fact at
the hearing to-day that the chief coun-
sci for Pouren, Herbert 7. Parsons,
had conferred with President Roosevelt
about the case two weeks ago, and
the President at that time had promised
TO take the matter up with Secretary
Bacon. When questiorbd before the
hearing, Prof Hourwich stated that
they had heard nothing about the mat.
ter since that time.
Commissioner Hitchcock took the qies-
ton OF an extension OF time under adj
vsement and promised TO render an
early decision. II he finds that the
Russian Government is entitled 10 more
time he will resume the hearing on
April J. Should he decide thtt hey
have had suitic.ent time already NE will
order that briefs be filed and will close
the case.

conferences to-day with Senators Flint.
OF California, and Nixon, Of Nevada,
and persisted in his repres sensations to
them that the situation would become
critical II their States insisted on lsg4s-
lation that would be insulting to the
Japanese. who he referred 10 as acting
with dignity under the strain.
The two Senators agreed to continue
their efforts to influence the legislators
OF their States against action Of any
sort and went away from the White
House to send kilograms to the leaders
OF those bodies urging postponemens Of
the legislation.
Nations interests First.
Il feel that we ought not to try to re-
sist the strong appeals of the Chief Ex-
ecutive," said Senator Flint. Il agree
with him that the time Is inopportuae
for legislation, and am going TO do
what can to help him in his efforts, I
shall use the wires freely 10 reach my
personal friends and urge them to In.
definitely postpone the separate school

lett who is now In this city. refuses to
divuge the reasons which led Speaker
Phillip Stanton. OF the Assembly, yes
terday TO make the dramatic appeal for
delay which resulted In postponement
of consideration OF the Japanese school
segregation bill until next Wednesday.
II is considered significant that Sen
ator Caminett! who introduced the
school bill In the upper House, should
have had the measure referred to the
committee on education He is himself
a member Of this committee and Il Is
generally believed. no matter what the
fate OF the measure may be later tina,
1t will at least receive a favorable re.
port.
DENVER, Col, Feb. s.-Equality with
other foreign nationalities in the United
States or very good and sufficient
reason why not. is the demand OF the
Japanese in America, according to
Takeo Sagora, Secretary OF the Japan
ese Association. OF Colorado
I'VE consider ours elves superior as a
race TO the Chinese, Coreans and other
Asiatics, and we do not wan, to be
classed with them. and will demand our
rights, granted the japanese by treaty
and under the Constitution of the
United States, to be treated on equal
terms with the French, German or
American. or people of any other ma.
ton" said the Secretary.
The Asiatic scare on the Pacific coast
amounts to little" he continued. The
number OF japanese in the United States
is decrea sing and will probably continue
TO do so. There are about 400 Japanese
In Colorado and so In Denver"
The statement that there are only 800
japanese In Denver is denied by Chief
OF Police Armstrong, who says that a
conservative estimate shows between
500 and 400 In this city.

BIG ROW IS PROMISED
ON FREE OIL QUESTION
Strong Pressure Will Be Brought to Bear to Get
Senate to Put on an Ad Valorem Duty as
Substitute

The only hope OF the oil men IS the
Senate. The experience OF oil and oil
products In the House was not such as
to encourage the hope that that body
Will be favorable to imposing a duty.
But the representatives of the oil in
terests have been extremely busy about
Washington since the bin got TO the
Senate and since the House swatted
the oil duty. They are said TO have
been making some converts and 10 in
dulge the hope that the Senate will put
on a duty
one argument Seing used is that the
oil and oil prodGcts duty would be a
revenue producer and would be justified
on tdat ground
No duty on oil or oil products viii
be imposed by the Senate without a
bitter fight. That much is certain. But
II the Senate does impose a duty then
there will be tSouble in conference. 1t
Is not likely, in view of the sentiment
shown when ne oil matter was up I'm
the House, that that body would permit
its conferees 10 yield, without at least
a protracted struggle. 1t is not I'M
possible that the oil question may dead
