Boston. March 11.-Indehnite sig nals, apparently from some steamer in distress, were picked up in fragment ary form by naval wireless stations at Charletown and Newport tonight, but on account of the many interrup- tions not enough of the message could be distinguished to indicate either the name of the vessel of her whereabouts.
 Tn distress-notify life saving sta tions west south east" is She way the message was read at Newport. At Charlestown it was thought pos sibte that the message came from the stranded steamer Massachusetts in Vineyard Sound.
 Not Believed to Be Aerial Hoax. The operators who heard the mes- sage agreed that the flashes from the receiver were medium to heavy, and seemed to he from a stronger sending machine than an amateur would be likely to nossess, SO that they felt quite certain that the message was not an aerial hoax.
 Vessel Drifting in Distress. Another wireless station picked up fragments of a message about the same time, which were in effect that a vessel was drifting in distress off the New Jersey coast. The single word ''TrainOr" was among other uncOnnect- ed words received. and this led to the supposition that the message might have referred to the schooner Ann J. Train or which was reported early in the week as drifting without nasts off the Virginia Coast

Sacramento, CAL, Jan. 19.-Accord-

Governor Gillett, there will be no leg
islation against the Japanese at this
session OF the legislature. The gov
ernor authorized the following:
AFTER conferring 'with, the leading
members OF both branches OF the leg
islature tonight, am convinced that
no legislation directed against the
Japanese will he enacted. ] am sat
isfied that the people Of California
and particularly those of our legisla-

made by the federal government and
the representatives of Japan to step
immigration to this country OF jar.,
anese laborers, skilled and unskilled.
There can be no doubt that the
Japanese government is acting in alb
solutely good faith In its endeavor
to prevent its people immigrating in
to our country, and in my judgment it,
would be serious mistake while they
are so doing to enact any laws di-
rected against the Japanese people.
''This question is one in which the
federal government is particularly in
terested and its wishes should be
carefully considered, and will be, II
am sure, by the people Of this state"
