GOUX WINS AUTO RACE.
FRENcHMAN LANDS 50o-MlLE con-
TEST AT INDIANAPOLIS.
Wins $4,000 Cash Prize-Wishert
and Merz are Second and Third
Respectively.

Indianapolis, June France won a
sporting victory over America Friday
on the indianapolis Speedway when
Goux, driving a Peugeot car, won the
500-mile motor race. Wishart, In an
American Mercer, was second. Merz,
In an American-made StutZ, captured
third place
Goux's time was six hours 81 min
utes 43:45 seconds, an average OF
1859 miles an hour. His rewards were
international honors, cash prizes
worth $4,000. including the $4,000
cash prize offered by the management
of the speedway for the winner OF the
race, kiss from dirt-covered me-
chanician, and shower of champagne
made of grapes that grew in the coun-
try whence he came.
Spencer Wishart, who drove Mer-
Ger car into second place at the finish
of the race, was given kissless and
champagneless reception at the Mercer
pits, but his two hands, worn out by
the steady work at the wheel OF his
car, were shaken wildly by hundred
admirers. He was lifted upon the
shoulders of his pit men and cheered
with the enthusiasm equal to that &C
corded to the Frenchman. He was
given check for $4,000.
One of the most remarkable bits OF
race car driving was staged by Charles
Merz in his Stutz car, when he drove
three and one-half miles, more than
one lap around the course, with his car
ablaze beneath the engine, and his me-
chanician and himself hardly able to
keep their seats on account OF the
flames that we're licking at their legs.
Spectators remaining in the grand
stands and bIeachers we're on their
feet straining for glimpse of the in
trepid young Indianapolis driver as he
rounded the last curve and started
down the final stretch with tongues of
flames squirting from under the hood
of his car He could not have made
another lap. His car would have gone
to pieces in another mile. But it re-
manned intact and continued to do his
bidding until it limped across the fin
ish line and Merz was $4,000
weather. Pitmen had extinguishers
ready and extinguished the fire that
soon would have destroyed the car.
Charles Merz's father is an Indianap-
oils policeman with a record for BRAY.

JAPAN TO REPLY SOON
CABLES KEPT BUSY FRAMING
ANSWERS FOR BRYAN.
Not Thought Mikado's Government
Will Ask for Exclusion Code
Canada Act Held Example.

Washington, June 3.-According to
present plans Japan will submit to the
state department at an early day re-
joinder to Secretary Bryan's answer
to the Japanese protest against the
alien land legislation adopted by the
California legislature.
This was made known here Monday,
but without any suggestion as to the
probable contents of the note.
There have been numerous cable
exchanges between the Japanese en-
bassy here and the foreign Office in
Tokyo, necessitated by the demands
the latter for exact information as
to American national and state laws
regarding alien land ownership and
naturalization.
Notwithstanding the pressure from
certain quarters at home, however, 1t
is regarded as doubtful that the Jap
anese embassy has concluded to turn
to request for amendment of the
American naturalization laws as So
luton of the present issue between
the two countries. The successful
treatment by the Canadian parliament
of complaints from British Columbia
of the competition of Japanese, how
ever, has attracted the attention Of
the negotiations on both sides in this
country.
AS the underlying principle of the
Canadian legislation is separation OF
the two races in the interest of per-
manent peace, to be attained through
absolute exclusion of all but the trav-
cling and student classes, it was sug-
gested that similar remedy might
be found to fit the present issue in
America.

FINDS NO LOBBY
SENATORS SWEAR NO ATTEMPTS
HAVE BEEN MADE TO COR
RUPT THEM.
WILSON WILL NOT APPEAR
President Calls In Supporters and
Offers to Give What information
He Has to Show That Money Is
Being Spent.

Washington, June 4.-The United
States senate Monday began it's Off
ciaI hunt for the "insidious lobby"
which President Wilson charged exist
ed to modify the tariff bill. The in
quiry was carried on by special COM
mittee after the leaders of the under
taking had held final conference with
president Wilson.
Sixteen senators were examined and
not one of them knew anything of the
existence of the lobby referred to by
the president. Not one of them knew
hnything of money being used by any,
body. Everyone declared that no one
had approached him improperly and
to man they defended the right of
citizens to come to Washington to
confer with members Of congress over
legislation that was vital to their bust
ness and industries.
One senator said: "The president
will not be able to make good" He re-
ceived his hardest 1olts before the
committee from members Of his own
party, when Senators Overman and
Walsh, Democrats, began to ask ques-
tons that seemed to indicate their
lack of faith in the charges that had
been preferred.
A total disagreement with the views
Expressed by the president was held
by Senator Clark of Arkansas, presi-
dent pro TEN of the senate, and by
Senator Chamberlain of Oregon.
1t was given out at the White House
that President Wilson had taken per-
sonal charge Of the inquiry, and that
the Democratic members Of the com
mittee would operate under his direc-
lions. Senator Dverman and Sena-
tor Reed were summoned to the White
House for orders. Senator Walsh,
Democrat, who will vote against free
wool and free sugar and member OF
the committee, was ignored. The
president submitted to these two sena-
tors such information as he had and
urged them to do all within their pow
err to enable him to make good.
The president has let it be under
stood that he will not appear before
the committee. On his behalf Sen
ator Reed will conduct the cross ex-
animation of all witnesses.
1t was explained that in his original
statement the president was careful to
make 1t clear that he did not charge
the existence of a corrupt lobby or
that corrupt methods were being used
Also it was said for him that he was
not rejecting upon any senator, but
was stating what he believes is the
fact, that an insidious lobby is at work
in Washington.
