STAR WANT ADS DRING RESULTS.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1911-02-25

Washington, February 24-The new Jap ratified tonight after a two-hour execu- tive session of the Senate held at the conclusion of day crowded with many other important matters. While the ap- prehension of western senators that the treaty might let down the bars to coolie labor was not entirely removed, these senators contented themselves with ex- pressing their solicitude. They interposed no objection to ratification.
 The action of this government in promptly confirming the new agreement Is expected to do more to prove the feel ing of cordially this country has for Japan than anything that has been done for many years It is regarded as a man. Hesitation of highest confidence in the ad- yanoed civilization of that nation. The effect will be to permit Japan to enter at once upon a reorganization of It's fiscal system and the making of new tariffs with all nations.
 Japan's treaties with other powers are to expire July II next. That with the United States, by reason of its later rat ification, would have continued until the same date year later had not this gov ernment consented to its expiration at the same time as the others.
 Failure to have ratified the treaty would have delayed the operation of the Jap anese programme for year beyond the time when it was planned to put it into effect. It would have meant a great deal to the revenues of Japan, and the con- tinuance of the existing treaty with the United States for another year would

Reciprocity Opponents
 Gain An Important Step

Washington, February 24.-Opponents of the Canadian reciprocity agreement attempt put. a quietus on legisla- tion on subject when the Mccall bill to carry out the provisions of the agreement late today was reported without recommendation from the Senate committee on finance. So far as the present session of Congress concerned they took long step tows accomplishing their purpose.
 The return of the bill to the Senate by Acting Chairman Burrows of the fi- nance committee was made the occa- sion for brief speeches both in opposi- tion and in favor of early action. As only few days remain to put the bill through hostile body the speeches against it were accepted generally as the death knell until a resurrection should come In an extra session.
 Senator Hale. the veteran republican who will retire March 4, declared that the committee had yielded to public clamor and the charge that the bill was to be supplessed, and had report ed 1t against the real sentiment of q large majority of the committee. He served notice. however that the bill would have to go to the calendar to take it's course, and any effort on the part of any one of whatever authority ito drive" the Senate would be an un warranted assumption of power.
 Senator Bailey of Texas, democratic of the committee, was recog- nized as soon as the report was pre- scented by MT. Burrows.
 Declaring his opposition to 1t he ex- pressed the opinion that the interests of the agriculturists would be servel

Senate Ratifies The
 New Jdpdnese Treaty

not have benefited this government in the slightest degree according to the rep rescntatons of the state department on the subject
 When the new treaty was received from the President Tuesday 1t became the sub Ject of wrangles. Pacific coast senators feared it might have an effect upon the labor situation on the western slope by reason of the omission of the clause in the treaty of 1894 which it supersedes, rec cgnizing the right of this government to pass an exclusion law Friends of the treaty explained that diplomatic notes accompanying it definitely pledged the Japanese government to prevent an influx of undesirable eoolies through the rigid scrutiny of all passports.
 An alien without passport would, of course, be liable 10 deportation. The Cali fornia senators. it is said, became satis- fled early that the change would not menace the labor situation in their state.
 Several other western senators became alarmed, however, at what seemed to them unseemly haste in pressing the Sen ate to act. They desired sentiment to crystalize in their states and therefore prevented action for three days.
 Supporters of the treaty endeavored to show that the presence of the clause on the subject of immigration in the treaty of 1894 was obnoxious to the dignity ana pride of the Japanese empire, especially as neither 1t nor any similar clause is In any treaty with any other country. It was argued further that the existing treaty would have expired in another year and this country could not hope to induce Japan to sign a new treaty con taining such a clause.
 Ratification was accomplished without a roll call. The injunction of secrecy con cepning the treaty was not removed and no public announcement of ratification was made.

 Senator Hale concurred in all that MT. Bailey had said and added that while the bill had been reported with out recommendation the committee had done so In face of the fact that an unquestioned majority could otherwise have been had for an adverse report.
 Senator Stone of Missouri. minority member of the committee. announced his intention of supporting the meas ure on the ground that it would be in the line of wise and progressive states manship.
 SD eaking briefly for a second time. Senator Bailey stated that while op- posed to the bill he would not seek to delay it's passage.
 II am ready to vote on it as soon as the Lorimer case Is disposed off he said. If the legislation should re- duce the cost of living 1t would do so at the expense of the farmers along the northern boundary. and I should be greatly concerned in observing their settlement of the question with those responsible for it's enactment.
 The bill went on the calendar, where i. Is subject to consideration whenever the Senate may desire to take it up.

Washington, February 24.-Replying to a request for information as to whether members of the organized military are exempt from United States jury duty. the war department has ruled that the selec- tion of federal jurors is governed by the laws of the state in which the federal court sits, and 1t Is within the discretion of the federal courts to excuse jurors for the same reasons that would result in their excuse from serving in a state court. Congressional legislation woum be nec- essary to secure broader exemption from jury service of members of the militia.
