William Marconi inventor of the
wireless telegraph, +. NJ. Sammis,
chief engineer of the American Mar
conf Co, Wireless Operators Bride
and Cottam a passenger, Hugh
Woolner of England. and Fourth Of
ficer Boxhall of the Titanic were the
days witnesses. Virtually all agreed
that better regulation of wireless COM
munication at sea was essential 1t
was made clear early in the hearing
that the committee had already made
up it's mind to advocate legislation
to prevent wireless operators on ship
board from holding back details of
disasters. Mr.. Marconi and Mr..
Sammis both acknowledged that a
mistake was made in sending mes
sages to Bride and Gotham on board
the Carpathia. not to give out any
thing until they had seen Marconi
and Sammis ashore.
Senator Smith held out no promise
as to when the officers of the White
Star Line Would be released but 1t
was the general understanding that
they would be freed as soon as Mr.
Ismay was examined. This, it was
expected. would not take long unless
some additional facts brought to the
surface made it necessary.

Col. Roosevelt devoted large part
of his speech to a reply to the things
President Taft lad been saying dur

state. At intervals in his journey
across the state, the colonel received
telegraph reports of President Taft's
speeches and later in the day he en-

Col. Roosevelt said the President
had asserted that the colonel was

Roosevelt denied.

Paris, April 29.-Relentiess war
against the anarchists in France is
to be one result of the operations of
the Bonnet band OF automobile brig
ands, two of whose leaders were kill
ed, yesterday. at Choisy-Le Roi, near
Paris, after a desperate battle with

to arrest Bonnet. the "Demon Chauf-
fcur,s at Petit Ivry. April ~ took
place, today.
The ceremony WAS imposing. Louis
Lepine, project of police, at the grave
side, delivered a remarkable appeal for
the more severe punishment of crimi-
nails. He declared that there was a
tendency throughout the world TO treat
youthful wrongdoers leniently on the
ground that they we're not responsible
for their acts, and this tendency was
creating a great menace to the securi
ty oil the people.
He continued: In the sinkholes of
Paris we have masses of criminals,
v no have been punished enough to
make them the enemies of law and
order and not punished enough to keep
them from warning against the author
tiles. We must choose between the
sacrifice of the liberty of the criminal
and the blood of men yaliantly labor
ing for the protection of society"
Jules Steeg, minister of the interior,
spoke in a similar strain. He insisted
that sthe time had arrived to put a
stop to the career of those who were
trying to excite the popular magma
ton by surrounding their exploits with
4 fantastic and terrifying aureole."
The melo- dramatic end of Bonnet,
which is narrated to the extent of sew
sra1 pages in all the newspapers, has
called forth praise FROM Certain por-
lions of the revolutionary classes. and
many arrests have been made whei.

Says Senior Ca|ero, New
Mexican Ambassador,
Regarding Reported Japanese
|EncToachment Magda|enaBay.
Says Concessions Have Nothing to
Do with japanese Government.

New York, April 29.-In response to
inquiries as to the recent agitation
regarding Japenese Entertainments at
Magdalena Bay, Senior Manuel Calero,
the new Mexican ambassador, who
was in New York, today, on his way
to Washington, made the following
statement:
There is no Japanese question in
Mexico and this talk about the jap
anese and Magdalena Bay is ridicu-
lous. 1t is absurd that you Americans
should be exercised about the grant
ing of private fishing concession to
Japan Such concessions are held by
the English, by Norwegians and by
Mexicans, and it is nothing more or
less than a business transaction in
which the concessionaries are respon-
sible to the Mexican government and
to no other government in the world.
1.-THE whole thing, as some have
tried to make il look, is absolutely
untrue.
Before i left Mexico City | saw that
Senator Lodge has asked for a sem
atorial inquiry into the alleged Jap
anese situation as regards Magdalena
Bay / made report, for | was then
minister of foreign affairs in Mr.. Ma
dero's cabinet, in which | stated that
there was no truth in the report that
the concession had anything to do
with the Japanese government. Sen
ator Lodge, for whom | have the
greatest respect, was entirely wrong
OF course If they want to investigate
let them do it, but it will be time
wasted, because they will be investi-
eating something that does not exist
',rhe truth of the whole matter is
that few years ago a concession
for fishing privileges was granted t.
a private Japanese enterprise. There
is nothing extraordinary about that
4 for the same thing is true of citizens
of many other nations. All the conces-
sions are the same

BAY STATE PRIMARIES, TO-DAY.

Boston, April 29.--The Massachusetts,
delegations to the Republican and
Democratic National conventions will
be selected, tomorrow, at atewide
primary, when an opportunity will be
given each voter to express prefer
ence also between three Republican
and Two Democratic candidates for the
Presidency OF the SO delegates to each
III tie two conventions, eight will be
chosen at large and two from each OF
the IA congressional districts Inter-
est has conferred during the closing
days of the campaign in the fight be-
tween President Taft and Former
President Roosevelt, whose debate on
the stump, which was unique in the
history Of American politics, did not
cease until the voting was less than
10 hours away.
The aspirations of Senator Robert
NJ. La Toilette for the Presidency are
also reckoned as a factor in the con-
test tomorrow, but only in relation
to the preferential vote.
ON the Democratic side, the contest
between Gov woodrow Wilson and
Speaker Champ Clark never attained
the strength nor the seeming bitter
ness that marked the Taft and Roose-
welt struggle AS no other Democrat
ic candidates have appeared in the
field except Gov. Foss. for whom there
has been no concerted movement, the
size of the party vote is expected to
fall considerably below that for the
Republican candidates.
