Which May BE in Violation Of
Treaties between This
Country and Japan.
TEXT is KEPT SECRET
Washington Officials Hope
for a Happy Solution
of the Trouble.

WASHINGTON, April Is. Secretary
Bryan today telegraphed to Governor
Johnson. of California, requesting him
to Withhold his signature to any alien
land legislation passed by the Califor-
mia legislature which might be in
Violation oftreaties between the Uni
ted States and Japan.
Mr., Bryan declined to make public
the text of the telegram. The inn
preston prevailed here that 1t was
the desire all around not to make It
public in California until after 1t had
been presented to an executive session
of the. legislature.
Meanwhile those in charge of the
Legislation which
Japan CONSTITUTES as Offensive
to her national pride have asked the
state department for specific informa-
ton as to the exact limit of the guar
antees to Japanese by existing treat
les and the department will clear up
that point as far as it can in the alb
sence of judicial DECISIONS. Although
President Wilson was taking day of
rest and all callers were strictly
barred he did discuss the situation
with Secretary Bryan. officials here
hope for some happy solution of the
troublesome question before the land
laws are finally enacted.
Tension Relieved.
The postponement by the California
Legislature of the alien land bill I'm
til next week has relieved the ten
sion here. Although many messages
are passing between Washington and
Sacramento where influential officials
reside, in the hope that they may
be able to exert some influence upon
the course of California legislation.
President Wilson and Secretary
Bryan make no secret of the fact
that while they are precluded from
officially interfering in California;
affairs they are privately addressing
themselves To individuals to secure
the amelioration of the features of
the pending land bill offensive to the
japanese government.

House Monday.

WASHINGTON, D. c.. April 10
Democrats OF the House continued
their caucus on tariff revision today
expecting to complete by nighttan
the administrative provisions of he

These amendments do not affect the
substance of the tariff but are in
tended to clear ead strengthen the
language of the measure and include
a few unlmportant changes in rates.
So far the only substantial change
made in the bill has been the trans
fer of new machinery to the free
list.
The Republican members OF the
ways and means committee confer
red today over the amendments they
propose to offer as substitutes irI
! the Democratic wool and cotton
schedules.
The ways and means committee
majority agreed to transfer buck.
wheat and rye to the free list and 10
add savings banks not conducted FOL
profit to the list Of exemptions from
operation OF the income tax. There
was no change in the wheat schedul,
on which millers have been making ,
great fight.
Mr.. Underwood said he expecte,
the tariff bill would he completed p!
tonight. AS amended it will he re
introduced in the House Monday

ship of the ways and means com
mittee Tuesday and probably take
up. for consideration by the Hous
Wednesday.
