JAP PANESE WHO
EfROM HAGUE
SEES ONLY PEACE

NO serious trouble will ever arise
between the United States and Japan.
The two countries understand one an
other. Whatever difficulties may ap-
pear, they can be amicably settled by
the Japanese American International
Parliament"
These are the words of w. Seki, a
member of the house of commons of
Japan, and a delegate to The Hague,
who arrived from San Francisco this

Mr.. Seki stated that while in the
United States he conferred with Pres
ident Wilson and the latter expressed
to him, he said, the friendship Of
America for Japan.
The California alien land owner
ship law is not settled satisfactorily
to us yet, but We are confident that
the federal government will see that
it works no harm on us.
Japan has a great friendship for
the United States"
Mr.. Seki has spent a good deal Of

JARRETT STICKS
To HIS JOB AS
BUCK PASSER

No positive statement can be secur-
ed today as to whether the hearing of
the charges against Captain of Detect
ives Arthur MeDuffie will be tomor-
row or not -. ~.
Deputy Attorney-general Smith, who
has conducted the investigation
against the accused officer, is not will
ing to make a statement today, and as
for Sheriff Jarrett-he says it is in the
hands of the attorney-general.
Attorney E. c. Peters, representing
McDuffie, though he has been i'll at his
home since the first of the week, de-
clared this morning that he would in
sist that the hearing take place as
scheduled tomorrow or that the
charges against the accused officer be
dropped.
Notwithstanding the reticence of the
attOrney-general's department, the ru-
NOR stifl persists and grows that there
will be no hearing According to the
TumOr the charges against McDuffie
will be dropped. More than a~week
ago this report became current and it
has grown daily.
Those in close touch with the inYes-
tigatiOn declare that the rumor. is 'bas-
ed on sound foundation.
The civil service commission before
whom the hearing is scheduled Ia
take place beginning tomorrow morn
ing at $50 o'clock, may have to de-
eide several points before the case
proper is taken up. One of these
points was indicated by Smith this
morning when he stated that he did
not believe he would, If a Hearing is
had, be required to go into the merits
Of the case. He contends that he need
only make such a showing as will
convince the commission that the
sheriff was justified in suspending the
men, and need not prove up on the
charges themselves.
Attorney Peters denied that this ar
gument is valid. He says he does not
know for a certainty whether the
charges will be heard, but that if the
hearing is called he will insist that the
merits of the case be gone into, and
