PACIFIC COAST LABOR
At PRESENT MENAcED
Opinion Expressed That United Ststes
Will Ignore Any Adverse Award
Made by Tho Hague or Other Arbi-
tration TribunaI-Japs to Play Watt
ing Game.

London, May 13.-'If it be true that
Papan wishes to carry the California
land question to The Hague tribunal,
we may shortly obtain a fruitful les
son in the practical limits of arbitra-
ton" says the Pail Mall Gazette to-
day in discussing the situation which
has arisen between the United States
and Japan in regard to the California
land ownership bill. The newspaper
continued:
IF the Chinese and Japanese are to
have free entry to the Pacific coast
it means eventually the extirpation OF
white labor from that region. All :he
arbitration in the world will not per-
suade the people of the western states
that it is their duty to give up their
bread and butter to an alien race. ana
we can imagine how much Eiklihood
there is of the government at WASH
ington taking measures to enforce such
an award on its own subjects. we
should rather like to see the expert
ment for its usefulness to bringing
dreamers back to hard facts"

BACK DEMAND WITH GUNS
Great Britain Sends Warships to En-
force Collection Of Claims Long
Overdue From Guatemala.

London, May 13.-The British for
eign office is hopeful of an early settle-
mant Of the British claims against
Guatemala. The last dispatches from
the British minister, Sir Lionel E. G.
Garden. indicated that satisfactory
reply to the British demand was antic-
ipated in a day or two.
The British minister's instructions
authorize him to call on British war
ship should he think its presence de-
sirable. Therefore, altho the foreign
office had not as late as today been
advised that the British cruiser Aeolus
had departed from Kingston. Jamaica,
for Puetro Barritos, it is thought quite
likely that the British minister mas
called on her commander to hasten py
the appearance Of vessel the pay
ment of the long overdue debt.
Altho the matter is considered as one
absolutely between Great Britain anu
Guatemala, the United States govern
ment has been advised Of the British
intentions to insist on the payment OIL
the bondholders. Guatemala's failure
to do this as promised at the end OF
April, has, it is stated in official circles
only made the British minister's notes
to the government more insistant.

New Orleans We got a rush order
for SIS tons on Thursday and in spite
OF the fact that we were very busy
we delivered 1t on Tuesday next, So
hours before the high waters arrived.
We always give preference to govern
ment work.
The cost OF production of steel was
greater in America than in European
countries, Mr.. Farrell testified Ha
said the wages paid abroad were 81 per
cent to rs per cent lower than here's
freight rates were lower. and shipping
facilities for export trade was bet
ter.
Foreign Pig Much Cheaper.
Pig iron could be manufactured IN

under way in q sailing vessel from that
port to San Francisco, the flrst cargo
OF Indian pig iron ever brought 20 this
country.
The freight was $3.50 ton and un-
der the new duty the tariff II cents.
Thus the pig iron would be laid down
in San Francisco at cost of about
s11.50. Chinese pig iron could be laid
down in San Francisco under the new
duty for $10.7s. The present marked
price for pig iron on the Pacific coast
is s21.50.

II don't think it would make any

COAL FIELDS FOR NAVY.
Reservation of Alaskan Deposits
Government is Advocated.

10VoVUm0US u SuV0SdSSos
Washington. May 12.-Government
coal reservations in Alaska for the OK
elusive use of the United States navy
were advocated today before the SEN
ate territories committee by F. G. Jen.-
met. treasurer Of the Alaskan Northern
railway.
Mr.. Jemmet declared 1t cost the gov
ernment about $3.50 to take eastern
coal to San Francisco and Seattle. If
the Alaska fields were developed, he
said. the cost would be materially les
sened and the Pacific ceast naval sta :
tions would be enabled to keep unlim-
tied supplies on hand. He argued that
practically all the coal taken around
the Horn for navy use was carried in
foreign bottoms which would be un-
available in time OF war.
Former Secretaries Meyer and Fish
er, he added. had approved the idea of
reservations and had given opinions
that a presidential order was all that
was necessary.

MAKE FIRST FIGHT
IN EFFORT TO HAVE PUBLIC
HEARINGS.
PENRosE MOVE TO REFER,
WITH OPEN MEETINGS
May Require Several Days to Decide
Point-President Wilson to Refuse to
Commit Himself in Any Way With
Respect to Minor Amendments to Bill
Several Changes to 30 Made.

Washington. May 13.-The tariff
fight was resumed today in the senate,
on the motion of Penrose to refer the
Underwood bill to the finance commit
tee with instructions for public hear
ings.
Chairman Simmons. Of the finance
committee, was busy early in the day
urging all democratic members to be
on hand in case the question should
come to a vote, and felt confident that
the republicans first move would be
checked.
Some republicans who have declared
that they would not support the PEN
rose amendment argue that hearings
on a tariff revenue would avail nothing
and that, were the bill written from d
protective standpoint, they would ia
vor hearings.
Penrose and other republican sena-
tors planned to talk on the amendment
to the bill when the senate convened
and it looked as tho it might be some
days before a vote was reached.
Wilson Non committaI.
President Wilson has taken the po-
sition that he onght not to commit
himself in any way with respect to nu-
merous minor amendments to the tar
bill being suggested by democrats.
Secretary Redfeld had half hours 8
talk with the president before the cab
met meeting today and declared he be-
lieved unimportant changes would be
made but that II the president con-
sented to certain ones he would be be-
sieged with requests to open other
schedules. Secretary Redfeld said that
since 1t had become known that an In
quiry was to be made by the bureau
Of domestic and foreign commerce Into
wages and Industrial conditions IN
connection with the tariff bill some re-
quests had come from manufacturers
themselves inviting such investigation
These Mr.. Redfield declared. however
were based on the belief that the In
ouiry would be the basis for tarin
rates rather than an explanation as 10
the effects of the bill after 1t had be-
come a law.
Minor Changes Being Made.
Senator Simmons declared today
that many manufacturers had notineo
him they did not want open hearings.
The senators said the finance suo-clm-
mittees were making some changes put
that they were not material.
Reduction Of the proposed duty OF IL
per cent on structural steel to > per
cent is said to have been considered.
