 The public interests requires the immediate removal of Commissioner Waldo. We realize the futility of making such a recommendation to the mayor The facts have been set forth long ago and disclosed in pub lie hearings. Nevertheless the mayor continues to approve and applaud the commissioners administration.
 Therefore we recommend that the board of aldermen request the gov ernor to relieve the city from police commissioner who from his temperament and conduct has shown himself unfit to occupy the office

At Rate of Four Senators an Hour Witnesses Sat in Chair and Told of Per sonal Business Affairs Before Committee
ASHURST IS
 AMONG FIRST
Arizona Senator is the Only Witness to Openly Char acterize Any Man as Lob byist and He Only in a General Way
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPArcHI


 WASHINGTON, June 2-The sen ate struck out boldly tonight on the trail of the ''insidious lobby which the president declared is operating to modify the tariff bill. At the rate of four senators an hour the colleagues of the five men on the Investigating committee stepped to the witness chair took their oath and then told stories of senatorial wealth, poverty or moderate circumstances, business and professional connections and of interest or lack of it in ~the tariff measure. Suspicion that the trail might prove winding one with many strange turnings brought out a good sized crowd that listened intently to these tales from senatorial life.
 As senator after senator denied Knowledge of the existence of an or ganized lobby, and declared that inn proper influence had not been exerted upon him and that money to influence Legislation had never appeared on the congressional horizon at the present session, the crowd slowly thfnned out Senators who served congress for many years repeatedly testified that they believed there were less personal appeals to members of the two houses now than at any tariff revision ses- sion in recent years.
 Nearly a dozen and a half senators had been examined before the end of tonigllt's session and while it disclos- ed freely the personal business affairs and extent of property and invest ments. the committee found no evil dences of senatorial or outside in- fluences to improperly effect the Iegis- lation
 The majority of senators declared they would not consider men who leg itimately appeared to present argu- ments to congress as lobbyists Both democratic and republican senators expressed the opinion that interested parties" had a right to present cases to individual senators or a commits sion of either house.
 Names of a score or more who ap- peared to protest against the cut in sugar, wool, lead meat. flour and similar duties were given by the diff ferent senators, but the only one re- ferred to as lobbyist was "man named MacMurray'' whom Senator Ashurst. said he believed was at tempting to influence action in favor of the approval of certain Indian con- tracts in which he was interested.
 Required by the committee to dis close any personal interests they might have in the legislation, the sen ators told of farms, newspapers. sew CT pipe factories. gas plants, and other things in which they had investments. All those who testified today declared they had no interest in any business Tn any way affected by the legislation now or previously before congress-
 Senator Ashurst testified that he is not interested directly or indirectly financially in production manufacture or sale of any article mentioned in the tariff bill, or any other bill, pending before congress, nor had he sought to

MORALES. June 2.-Ojeda's com mand yesterday shelled the cOnstitu- tiOnalist camp at Maytorena and drove the state troops back to the base at Ortiz. The insurgents are said to be short of water which must be hauled from the stations to the north along the Southern Pacific, and also lack of ammunition.
 Didier Mason, the French aviator, has so far failed to make a showing with his aeroplane, from which he planned to drop shells on the Mex ican gunboats Morelos and Guerrero lying in the Guaymas harbor. He has failed to make a single successful flight against the advancing federals, nor has General Obregon been able to force land fighting. Ojeda is pur- suing the same tactics of advance and retreat he used so successfully in de- lending NacO.

House Democrats Perfect
 Legislative Program Con templating Action Only
 on Tariff. Currency, Elmer gency and Election Gases
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPArcHI

 WASHINGTON, June 2.-The house house democrats in caucus today re stricted the legislative program of the present extra session to tariff, cur rency and emergency appropriations and election cases. Committee assign ments as submitted by Chairman Un- derwood and his colleagues on the ways and means committee of the majority were adopted by the caucus without. change.
 iThe legislative program as presented by Underwood was made binding on the democratic members of the stand ing committees of the house. The resolution by which this was accom- pIished provided that no standing com mittee, except committees on ways and means. appropriations, banking and currency, elections and printing accounts and rules. should report bills or resolutions to the house or have them placed on the calendars without permission expressly granted by the democratic caucus.
 Following up the action of the house earlier in the day, creating commit tee on good roads, the caucus chose Representative ShackeIford of Mis- souri for chairman and named Rep reScntatlVe DlcklnSOn or Missouri to succeed him as a member of the ways and means committee.
 While the committee list was under consideration Representatives Booher of Missouri and Tribble of Georgia complained that Representative Maher of New York and Hensley of Mis- souri had been jumped" to make room for Representative Lewis of Maryland, as chairman of the commit tee on labor. Lewis ranked by the other two members of the committee in the last congress. Representative Tribble said if organized labor could dictate the selection of chairman for the house committee on labor he would like to know why the bankers could not dictate the chairmanship of the banking and currency committee and the farmers the agricultural com- mittee, and so on
 One of the plans suggested to the members of the banking and cur rency committees of congress which will receive serious consideration be- fore d definite program for currency reform is adopted would eliminate the central reserve association proposed by the national monetary commission and central agency" favored by some democratic leaders and substi- tute national reserve division" in

JAPAN COMES
 OUT FOR PEACE
Through Niscount Chinda / Secretary Bryan Learns That Japan Has Accepted in Principle the Proposed Peace Plan Advanced
ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH

WASHINGTON. June 2.-Niscount Chinda. the Japanese ambassador. called on Secretary Bryan late tonight with formal notification that Japan has accepted in principle the proposed plan advanced by the United States for universal peace. Signatories to the treaty proposed in Bryan's plan would agree to refrain from hOstilities for at least nine months while any conflicting claims were under consid eration by the international joint commission. In the case of Japan as of ten other nations that received the proposal favorably the response ap- plies solely to the general principles involved and none has committed it. self to approve any of the details of the project.
 Therefore it may be many months before the tentative draft of the con vention which Bryan submitted to various embassies and legations will be reduced to a form which will rex ceive their unqualified approval.
 The statement by the Japanese am bassador that his government is pre- pared to give careful and favorable consideration to the peace proposal has no bearing whatever on the nego- JldLlOHS HOW III progress between tue two countries regarding California land legislation.
 During his call on Bryan this after noon, the ambassador discussed this subject at various angles for half an hour, but without definite result. The Japanese foreign office has not cabled the ambassador any definite instruc- tiOns regarding the submission of a rejoinder to the last American note and it is known it is conducting an original investigation as a basis for the rejOinder.

PRESCOTT. June 2.-Frederick F. Small, president and general manager of the BrookIyn-Arizona Mining com pany was arrested tonight on a fed eraI indictment of fifteen counts re- turned by the grand jury in the United States district court at Bos- ton The indictments ailege using the mails to defraud in an effort to sell stock in the company.

He will be taken to Boston at once under a removal or de1 from the federal court of Ari- zona The properties of the company are located near Mayer Arizona.
 Relative to Mr. Small and his claims. The Copper Handbook for 1911, which is recognized as an au- thority upon copper properties throughout the world, has this to say:
 'fThe official statements of the company claim 15S outcrop aver aging 15 per cent copper, $4.2o silver and $10 per ton gold, which is not believed. Company also claims to have 24 large quartz veins carrying heavy values in copper gold and sil- yer. with Il under development, and MT. Small is authority for the state ment that massive dykes and veins converge and run into the Brooklyn Arizona from every point of the com pass. which reminds the reader of Heinze's celebrated umbrella apex theory, in Butte MT. Small also states that every indication points to the fact that underlying the Brook Iyn-Arizona mine is one vast body of ore anywhere from 1500 to 2500 feet in width MT.
