Negotiations With Japan
Moving Satisfactorily.
MAIN POINT OF PROTEST
Mikado's Government Laws stress On
Alleged Discrimination Against Her
elt'zens In the Action Taken by
California Legislators.

washington, May 13.-President
Wilson believes negotiations between
japan and the United States over the
1liap lp.o1 r,-rEusiTrk- rIrvnury 'iIIrce
calculated to remove the appearance
of discrimination against Japanese
subjects.
The president, discussing the sub
ject informally, took the position that
the Webb bill would not violate the
treaty between Japan and the United
States. He intimated that Japan's
protest was not founded upon claim
that the treaty would be broken in
any way, but upon the feeling that
there was an effort to discriminate
against Japan on the ground OF their
alleged ineligibility to citizenship.
The president revealed that the
question of naturalization had not yet
entered the discussion with the Japa-
nese ambassador, but that, of course,
underlying the bill, ii was realized
that federal courts had not finally
passed upon the question of eligibil-
ity.
"Discrimination" Only Fault.
It was upon the basis that Japa-
nese were not accorded the privileges
of citizenship that the appearance oil
discrimination written In the bill had
arisen and it was intimated at the
White House that for the present the
hope was that the legislation in Cal
fornia either would be vetoed by GOV
ernor Johnson or delayed by a refer
endum to permit smoothing over
some features of the situation.
President Wilson endeavored tc
make 1t plain that the greatest frank
ness had prevailed between the two
governments even to the abandon
ment of many diplomatic formalities
The conferences thus far betweeT
Secretary Bryan or President Wilson
and the Japanese ambassador were
described as being those of lone gen
tleman to another"
Intimations that the Japanese pro
test itself was couched neither in Wig
orous nor aggressive language, bu
was formal and friendly In character
came from the president himself dur
ing his talk. The president was dis
posed to talk freely Of the subject ant
appeared confident that satisfactor.
adjustment would be accomplished.

How Gold Pens Are Made

Cor the points Of gold pens, Is made
from the powder obtained In the wet
way from platinum ore by heating to a
high heat in a sand crucible and then
adding stick phosphorus The iridium.
which cannot be melted alone, Is thus
fused in the form OF an iridium phos-
phide. To remove the phosphorus the
phosphide is heated with lime. and the
iridium is left in the form Of a hard
white mass. II Is now so hard that it
cannot be filed or cut and Is broken up
into small pieces for soldering to the
points Of gold pens. These small pieces
are ground to the right size on copper
disk wheel with emery or carborun-
dunn. 1t is said that an ounce Of irid-
ium will make from 5000 to 10000
pen points. Ii has also been found
that the iridium thus prepared is prac-
tically as hard as the ruby. No steel
tools can make any impression upon it
At one time much less expensive than
platinum, iridium now is worth more
on account of the demand for hard plat
