President Wilson and Secre- tary Bryan Decide to Ask the Governor of California Not to Approve Measure Before Him
JAPAN IS NOT
 ONLY OBJECTOR
Word is Received That Baron SOvedam Has Sailed from TOkio to Investl- gate Conditions of Coun- trvmcn Here
rAssocrATRD PRESS DTsPATCHl

WASHINGTON. May 10.-President Wilson and Secretary Bryan decided late today to telegraph Governor Johnson the views of the American as well as the objection of the Jap anese government on the Webb bill passed in the California legislature and awaiting the governors signature. It is said that Johnson will be urged to veto the measure
 A message was formulated by Bryan tonight after hours of confer ence with the president in discussing the details of the formal protest filed by Ambassador Chinda. It was de- cided that the secretary shall frame a communication to Governor John son, but the nature of it will not be disclosed Bryan said the message will not be sent tonight and he prob ably will confer with the president tomorrow before dispatching it. Sec retary Bryan conferred with the Jap anese ambassador immediately after the conference with the president but it is believed he merely advised him Of the intended course of action. The formal reply to the Japanese protest will probably not be made by the state department until some answer is received from Johnson as to his action on the bill.
 4 report spread in official circles tonight that Bryan will urge the Cal ifornia- governor to refer the bill back to the legislature for notifications that would meet the Japanese objec- tions It is well founded belief that if Governor Johnson refused to either veto the bill or to recommend the notifications, that California friends of the federal authorities will attempt to invoke the referendum with an idea of nullifying the law until an election is held the interval being used to reach an understanding diplomatically with Japan and per haps frame d new treaty covering the disputed points.

 It was Vrendenburgh who intrOduc- ed him to Miss Robinson on a train coming from Springfield to Chicago O'Hara dropped in to the play late and leaving the theater met Vrenden- burgh and the women. Being urged he took sandwich with them in the cafe Then he returned to his home.
 In his testimony O'Hara said he did not remember the name of the Wo- man who was with Miss Robinson. He stated, however. that Vrenden- burgh told him he had registered the women having the husbands request from the women who had q parlor in common.

SIMMONS SEES MERIT
 IN NEW AMENDMENT
Change in Tariff Bill Changes Me
 thod of Imports Appraisins
ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH

WASHINTON, May 10-Chairman Simmons, of the finance committee sees merit in the amendment to the tariff bill suggested today by Ass,s tant Attorney General Denison and Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Curtis to authorize the secretary of the treasury to proclaim the valua- tions on imports. It is claimed that this would prevent under valuations and avoid confusion resulting from fluc- ruating foreign market values and ad valorem rates.
 After the department officials had explained their proposed amendment to the senator today, he declared it worthy of proposal, and said it would receive thorough consideration by the committee. The plan seemed to him to be of chief value as a preventive of fraud on the importers and WIlful undervaluations to reduce the duties they would be required to pay.
 The plan will be taken up by the committee next week
 Chief interest in the tariff now lies in a contest over the question of public hearings precipitated by Senator Penrose. There is possi- bility the republicans say. of sl rally enough with democratic support of the plans to defat the majority par

FUNNY FELLOWS
 HOLD SESSION
 0F THIRD HOUSE
Attaches and Lobbyists Take House of Represent tatives Chamber and Have Farce Legislature to the Crowded Galleries

For three joyous hours last night, the third house of the legislature of Arizona held a fast and furious ses- sion, and the fun was immense. A crowded gallery in which was notice able the presence of practically the en- tire senate, enjoyed the doings on the floor, where the attaches of both hous- es, and the officially declared lobbyists showed the others "how a legslatu chure ought to be did"
 The affair was conducted in the hall of the house of representatives, begin ming shortly before eight o'clock and continuing unbrokenly until a few min uteS after eleven o'clock To say that it was funny tells the story but poorly Nearly every little familiar action of the members of the legislature in both houses received a take off somewhere Land somehow, and the greatest of good humor prevailed.
 Peter J. Munch, who seemed too sure that he was going to be elected speaker grabbed a gaVel early in the game and proceeded to call the house to order and in a great speech accepted the po- sition of speaker. Shortly after this however, F. Brady O'Neill represent ing Sd1 FTdnclScO 1310, nominated | lady for permanent speaker with the accent on the permanent, and Miss Oliver of Yavapai county presented the name of c. Purdy Bullard as the handsomest and prettiest man in Ari- zona. Mis- Oliver said that art ought to have some recognition, even if brains did not accompany it. This captured the house and Bullard was elected with much noise while Munch prepared to munch his lemon in sil- ence. Bullard in accepting said his election had decided two points, one that he was well liked by the ladies, and the other that he was the hand somest man in Arizona. He had been a candidate for that position for a long time but his distinguished friend w. E Graham, that eminent -agriculturals st from Cochise who had horse shoe farm in the Warren district had been his
 greatest fear as a rival candidate. Munch was determined to get even
 with somebody so when Speaker Bull | lard called on J. ParlSe Charming, mine | owner engineer and tax expert to pray | for the house, Munch moved that each
 member pray for himself as it would

There is saying that rapid eat
ing is slow suicide If you have
formed the habit of eating too rap
idly you are most likely suffering
from Indigestion or constipation,
which will result eventually in SER
ious illness unless corrected Di-
gestion begins in the mouth.
Food should be thoroughly masti-
Gated and insalivated. Then when
you have a fullness of the stomach,
or feel dull and stupid after eat
ing, take one of Chamerlain's Tab
let's. Many severe cases of stomach
trouble and constipation have been
cured by the use of these tablets.
They are easy to take and most
