President Again Considers Anti-Japa-

Washington, Feb. 3.-The Japanese
situation, in view of the action of the
Nevada legislature in criticising the
president for interfering with Califor-
MIA legislation and strongly denounc-
ing the Japanese, together with the
renewed efforts in the California leg
islature to secure legislation, was I'M
der consideration at the White House.
The president talked with three or
four of his callers, among them being
former Mayor Phelan of San Fran
cisco. The president repeated his
formal warnings against irritating
legislation. He expressed the hope
that the California legislature would
not proceed further than the Drew
bill, which prevents the ownership of
lands by aliens except under certain
conditions. The president believes
that this bill would not be offensive
to Japan, but any other legislation
more drastic would prove exceedingly
troublesome. So far the president
does not contemplate writing any fur

of the fleet under Pear Admiral
Sperry is under arrest on board his

ago. The captain was relieved from

the members.
The captain in question denies the
charge. His defense will be that he
was under a heavy strain during the
last run of his vessel on account Of
rough weather; that on the day of the
reception he had been on the bridge
since o'clock in the morning; that
he did not drink anything during the
day and partook sparingly of the wine
served at the dinner which preceded
the reception. Fatigue was RESPONSE
bic for his appearance.
This affair has been kept quiet, but
none the less it has created a painful
impression, AS it is the first charge
preferred against an officer of high
rank since the beginning of the cruise.
The Georgia is the flagship of the
Second division of the fleet.
