CAM|NETTYS: ACT
HITS PRESIDENT
Wilson Antagonized by Advocacy
of Jap Exclusion.
MAY ASK HIS RESIGNATION
General Opinion at Washington Is
That immigration Commission
er's Days Are Num-
bered.

Washington, Feb. 1S.-The fight
over the Burnett immigration bill Is
centered in immigration Commits
sion Caminetti. This official has an
tagonized President Wilson and the
entire cabinet through his bold adyo-
cacy of Japanese exclusion in the
face of determined efforts made by
President Wilson to keep this ques-
ton in the background at the pres
ent time.
The general opinion is that Can't
nettfs days in Offices are numbered
Congress has ignored Caminetti's
advice to have Asiatic exclusion made
part of the Burnett immigration
bill but the fight over the literacy
test Is growing hotter. 1t is now GER
tain that the bill will be sent to the
senate from committee with the liter.
acy test excluded, and it probably will
pass the senate in that form. 1t is
now believed that President Wilson
Will not veto the immigration bill,
even should 1t contain the literacy
test. The impression prevails that he
will not antagonize congress in this
matter despite the pressure that will
be brought on him to do so.
Want Caminetti for Governor.
Commissioner Caminetti said he
was considering the invitation of Cal.
ifornia Democrats to become their
nominee for governor against Gov
ernor Hiram Johnson, Progressive.
The invitation requires re-
sponse," he said, but am 1900 miles
from California and can scarcely be
expected to have my head turned.
am giving the matter full considera-
ton"
The necessity of federal aid in the
control of floods in the lower Missis
sippi valley was outlined to the senate
committee on commerce by Edward
P. Bicknell, National director of the
American Red Cross; Miss Mabel
Boardman and John Fox, of Memphis.
Mr.. Bicknell and Miss Boardman de-
scribed the work done by the Red
Cross in China in flood relief and the
aid given by that society in helping
China arrange a loan Of $4,000 to be
expended in bikes and other devices
for flood prevention. They declared
that the Red Cross has spent $780,
900 in relief work in the Mississippi
valley in the last five years.

AMERICANS EATEN
BY CANN|BALS
Chicagoans Slain in Peru By
Natives.
DIE BY POISONED SPEARS
sesIey Expedition Sends News OF
Travellers Fate-Nothins But
Bones Found by
Rescue Party.

Chicago, Feb. discrimination oil
the report that William H. Page, a
fromer teacher at the Lake View
high school, and w. H. Cromer, for
mer West Point cadet, had met their
death in the wilds of Peru, reached
Chicago relatives of the explorers
from members of the Besley rescue
expedition sent a year ago to search
for the Chicagoans
Some hip and thigh bones and
other traces of the Page party made
the members of the Besley expedi.
ton certain that the explorers had
been killed by cannibals.
DR.. c. S. Page, brother Of the ex.
plorer, still expressed hope that the
report might prove incorrect.
Among those who returned to New
York were Capt. J. Campbell, head
OF the party; Franklin B. Coates, J,
X. Holbrook and J. w. Dunno.
Were Building Road Over Andes.
The Page-Cromer party had set out
to build roadway across the Andes.
Mr.. Cromer, who lived in Evanston
with his brother, c. E. Cromer, joined
the party at Lima.
Mirke Seljan, also a Chicagoan, left
here to join the party, but was re
ported to have escaped the fate OF
the others.
After six months had elapsed with
out a word from the explorers, the
Peruvian government was asked to
make a search for them. An appeal
was made to Colonel Roosevelt, when
he started for South America, to aid
In the search.
Before the return CT the Besley ex-
petition the only trace of the miss.
Ing men came from the recovery Of
the guns and camp equipment of the
explorers from natives. The natives,
however, refused to give any infor-
nation as to how the things came
into their possession.
Mrs. Page has been at her home in
kenilworth since her husband left
there for South America. DR.. Page
asked that she be not notified of the
return OF the rescuing party until he
received definite information.
Find Traces Of Another Party.
Traces were found by the Besley
party OF the lost Seljan expedition.
which took the same route as the
Cromer expedition, and Captain Bes.
ley thought that the bones might
have been the remains of members
OF either party. The Seljan expedi-
ton was in search of rubber and is
said to have been financed by F.
Gundlach of Chicago.
Besley said that he encountered on
the trip savage cannibal tribes, armed
with poisoned arrows, and on one &C.
casion his party was attacked by
them. A few shots drove them off.
