The selection by the present ad-

Moscow has never enjoyed the privi-

health department is operating has
been in force for the past II years and
a simple enforcement of this law can

strong indications that neither Ger
many or England will participate in
the Panama-Pacific exposition and it
is admitted at the state department
that intimations to that effect had
been received.
1t is reported that the reason as
signed for such possible decision is
that international expositions are be-
coming SO frequent as to lose any
trade value they may be possessed of.
Confirmed at London.
LONDON, July 31.-It was admitted
at the foreign office that England had
decided not to participate in the Pan
ama-Pacific exposition at San Fran
cisco. No reason was given but the
that it was because of
resentment of Americas attitude on
he Panama canal tolls is contradicted.

migration of this class of Russians
to British Columbia for the reason that
there is no employment for such
large number of unskilled laborers.
as there are at the present time in this
vicinity about 5000 unemployed, and on
the other hand, the introduction this
criminal class would cast a general
reflection upon the character of the
Russians already here.

not for the present restrictive meas

Yale Professor Will Come.

The most recent appointment to be
made was that of DR.. w. A. Robinson,
of Yale University. DR.. Robinson has
been an instructor in economics and
political science at Yale for the past
two years and had accepted similar
position at Princeton college before
he was rendered the chair of economics
at Idaho the first of this week. He was
prominently mentioned for this ap-
pointment at the time Secretary Rossi
of the state board of education was in
Moscow recently but it had not been
definitely learned at that time whether
he would accept the position. A wire
was received from him last evening
saying that he had given up his ap-
pointment at Princeton and would ac-
cept the chair at Idaho.
DR.. Robinson is perhaps the most
highly recommended man who has
been secured at Idaho this year and |
the fact alone that he was wanted at |
Princeton would offer some indication |
Of his worth.

formation concerning the influx of
Russians to the country is contained
in written statement to Mr. McCon-
nell by G. Karsonoff, a Russian agent
for a San Francisco labor agency,
who is located at Vancouver at the
present time.
The following is the statement sub
mitted to Mr.. Mcconnell
For your information relative to
the number of Russians here, l have
to state that my information is that
the Russian volunteer fleet will have
it's first sailing from Vladivostok about
August 18th, next. and that their first
vessel has a booking of 1000 Russians,
subsequent sailings to follow monthly
with approximately the same number.
From inquiries, | am led to believe
that the greater number of Russians
taking passage with their vessel are
those who have been exiled by the
Russian government to Siberia, and
will comprise criminals of all classes
who have been sent to Siberia for
crimes committed.

Has Been Neglected.

The department of economics and
political science at the varsity has
long been neglected, offering no
courses at all last year. 1t has al
ways been handled entirely by ex-
President MacLean who was so over
burdened by other duties that he
could giev but little time to its work.
This department promises to become
one of the most popular at the uni
versity. 1t is thought that practically
every student in the law department
will take elective courses in economics
and it's electives will undoubtedly be
popular with the students in the
school of arts and sciences also.
Vacancies which yet remain to be
filed are in the departments Of music,
and botany, besides the
presidency of the university. These
will be filled, it is thought, before the
opening of the afll term.

INSIDUOUS LOBBY PROBE BEGINS WITH ROW TODAY
NEW MENACE NOW
THREATENS NORTHWEST

A menace to the labor conditions
of the Pacific Northwest is threatened
within the near future according to
w. j. Mcconnell, special agent of the
department of labor of the United
States, who returned home last night
from a trip to Vancouver, B. c., and
other northwest points on official bust
ness
Former Governor Mcconnell has
been a close student of labor condi-
tions throughout the country and has
some very clear ideas of the necessity
for the strict enforcement of the la,
tional government. His recommends
tions to the department of labor are
regarded as extremely valuable and in
his official capacity he has been able
to secure keen insight into the ele-
ments that go to safeguard the
country against the baser side of la
Dor difficulties.
Important Disclosure.
Probably one of the most important
disclosures with relation to immigra-
tion from foreign countries to Can
adian soil was unearthed by Governor
Mcconnell on his recent trip to Van
couver. Within a month the first ship
ment of Russian exiles of the lower
o1occ will oon,a from puccio ond bo
landed at Vancouver 1t is estimated
that not less than 1000 of such persons
will be in the first shipment. 1t is
predicted that each month following i
a similar number will come. The sit I
lation has become alarming to Can |
adian officials because of the informa- |
ion that these immigrants are prac-
.ically without sufficient funds to ex-
st and from the further fact that |
here is no work to be had for the un
killed labor in Canada at the pres
his morning that there were at least
900 unemployed at Vancouver at the
resent time and that even in the large
torres of tl0 place that the ordinary
elp was being laid off in large num-
ers. He regarded the situation at
'ancouver as only a sample of the
elsewhere.
Making an Investigation.
The trip of the inspector at Vancouv-
r at this time was for the purpose of '
taking a special report to the de-
on the existing conditions c

afeguards had been provided to pre- S

Irving Roth Is a humorous
Wop."
That is to say, he Is a very
funny Italian of the streets.
Roth is what the stage folk
term a versatile actor. He can
take any kind of a freak part
and get away with it. He was
seen here few months ago as
tramp with five other knights
of the ties. His part was ire
sistibly funny.
This week he came back to the
Pantages theater as "wop." And
his Italian character is the best
he has ever attempted.
"Wop" is the latest slang name
for "Dago," which means, in
street parlance, an Italian peddler
or street loiterer. AS the wop,
Roth has a series of Italian dia-
lect songs and jokes that cause
laughter and pity at the same
time. One cannot but sympathize
with the unfortunate beggar in
rags, despite his half-joyous
songs.
In the court scene of "Heart
Throbs," Roth's wop character is
even better displayed. For this
scene, Roth attended police court
sessions regularly for weeks, list
ening to the pleas of real wops

No American composer has re-

his delightful comic opera, 1.-THE

Gordon will make her bow before
local theatergoers at the Tacoma

with delightful humor and woven
around a charming love story of a

Its romance Is of the prisoner of

full of plot and counterpart.
