Basis Of Charge is that Cox
Testified Falsely Before
Jury in 1906
Alleged he Received Money
From Banks Named as
County DepositarieS
(By Associated Press.)

Cincinnati, Ohio, Feb. 2l.-George
i. Cox, for years head of the republic
can organization in Cincinnati, prom-
inent factor III state and. national poll
tics, president of the Cincinnati Trust
company, and know widely in theatre
cal circles because of his interests III
that field, was indicted by the Hamil-
ton county grand jury late today on
charge of perjury. The basis of the
charge is that Cox testified falsely be-
fore the grand jury on March 81,
1906, III denying he had received any
of the interest money which several
banks, according to disclosures before
the Drake investigating committee,
paid to county treasurers as recompense
for the deposit of county funds in these
banks.
The specific case upon which the jury
acted occurred III the administration of
John H. Gibson, who served two terms
as county treasurer, from 1900 to 1904.
Gibson testified before the grand jury
yesterday that Cox had received $48,-
500 of the $97 ,064 which the banks had
given to Gibson as "gratuities" during
the lattcrs service. This was the
amount which Gibson paid into the
county treasury in 1906, following the
investigation by the grand jury OF the
Drake disclosures. Two other treasur-
crs, Tildcn r. French and Rudolph H.
I1ynick, also paid considerable sums to
the county, Frencl, turning in $50 ,45o,
and flynick $58, 44o.
Immediately after Cox had been in
formed by a reporter of today's indict-
ment. he prepared to leave his office
in the Cincinnati Trust company and
go to the court house to enter appear
ancc and give bonds. Less than an
hour after the jurys report, which was
made at 1852 p. m, Cox appeared at
the court house Prosecuting Attor-
ncy Henry 7. Hunt had recommended
to Judge German, presiding over the
criminal division of the court of COM
mon pleas, that bail be fixed at 81 900.
This was done and the required bond
was given by Cox. with Abraham
Furst, prominent in local democratic
circles, as surety. No date for Cox's
appearance in court was set, and the
signing of the bond ended the court
proceedings for today.

Speech Against Lorimer
on Tuesday
(1y Associated Press.)

Washington, d. c., Feb. 2l.-Bever-
idge of Indiana occupied most of the
time of the senate today. He began,
but did not conclude his speech against
Lorimer's retention of his seat as sena-
tor from Illinois. Beveridge was fire.
quently interrupted, his chief nterro-
gator being Bailey of Texas. As night
approached, unanimous consent was
asked and granted for Beveridge to
conclude tomorrow. He will probably
follow Lorimer himself. 1t is in doubt
whether Burrows of Michigan will be
able to secure vote tomorrow, though
today he announced his purpose to ask
one of the Lorimer case.
The feature of today's session was
the reading of letter from a North
Dakota farmer criticising James ]. Hail
for his utterances regarding Canadian
reciprocity.
In the house the day was devoted to
the naval annropriation BILL An amend
ment was adopted to prevent the navy
departments transporting coal from the
Atlantic to the Pacific coast for naval
vessels there. It must be secured from
western mines. The entire naval in
crease program was concurred in by
the house.

APANESE TREATY WOULD
ELIMINATE RESTRICTIONS
ON CO0L|E Immigration
Power of u. S. to Regulate immigration by
Legislation not Curtailed
Opposition From Senators of Western
States is Expected by Many

Washington, D. c., Feb. p. - The
next of the new treaty with Japan, de-
signed to replace that of 1894, and
drawn up with the special design of
eliminating the restrictions upon immi-
grafton contained in that treaty, was
laid before the senate today by Presi
dent Taft. The essential difference be-
tween the proposed treaty and the ex-
listing convention is said to be in the
fact that it omits all reference to such
restrictions and leaves to the national
honor of Japan the enforcement at her
own ports of limitatio ions upon immigra-
ton from Japan now expressly placed
upon immigration into the United
States.
The document is said to provide that
either country may dcnounce the treaty
at the end of six months if it fails to
operate as expected. Because it en-
bodies this radical departure from the
existing treaty and touches the ques-
ton of the deepest Importance and in
terest to the Pacific slope, the injec-
ton of this convention into the clos
ing hours of the Glst congress created
sensation today
That the new treaty will encounter
opposition seems certain, for even if
it should be speedily reported to the
senate from the committee without Sc
rious controversy within the committee
room. western senator's are expected to
insist upon an opportunity for debate
which will develop the full extent of
their opposition to the treaty.
Unlike matters of ordinary legisla-
ton, the failure OF the senate to act

Upon the treaty during the remainder
of this session OF congress would not
of itself cxtinguish its vitality, which,
could be kept indefinitely alive in the
executive files of the senate, to be
taken up at any convenient time.
This new treaty is one of trade and
commerce" intended to replace the
treaty Of 1894 negotiated by the late
Secretary Gresham and Baron kurino,
then Japanese minister to the United
States. 1t has already become anti
quated, mainly because of the rapid ad-
vance of the Japanese in the ways Of
civilization. 1t was drawn simultane-
ously with a number Of other Japanese
treaties of similar scope negotiated with
all the great powers. But unlike the
others. this particular treaty was not
promptly ratified and did not go into
effect until year after the others
were in force. Japan has already ne
gotiated treaties to replace those of
the ninetes with nearly all of the other
powers except the United States.
If our government we're to insist
upon its rights. the existing treaty
could be continued in force until July
l.. 1912. This little incidental differ
ence Of one year in the expiration of
the old treaties is proving very embar-

Speech Of Ba|four was great
Event Of Day and was
RoundIy Cheefed
10y Associated Pross0

London, England, Feb. 2l. - The
first days debate on the government
bill to abolish the veto power of the
House of Lords, which was introduced
today in the House of Commons by
Premier Asquith, while it failed to
indicate definitely the fate of the meas
ure in the hands of the House of
Lords, left little doubt as to the at
titude of the leader of the opposition
on the question.
Balfour, whose speech was the great
event of the day, seemed to be develop
ing line of policy which woul dadmit
of the veto bill passing the House of
Lords without great obstacles, provid-
ed it was accompanied by reform of
that house, but he indicated that he
would consent to no change of consti-
tuition which could allow parliament to
pass the home rule bill without this
bill having been voted upon by the elec-
toral
In other words, he would not ac-
quiesce i'll the home rule question be-
ing submitted to the second chamber
differing only from the existing House
of Lords in being bereft of its abso-
lutte power. Unionist members cheered
again and again when Balfour declared
that he would fight against revolution
on which the people had not been con-
suited, carried out not at the bidding of
the real majority of the house, but at
the bidding of the nationalist minority.
In introducing the bill, the premier
declared that the country was strongly
behind him, and that the measure had
been endorsed by the people at the re-
cent elections.
