his whole life in his
native county with the pos

ARMS AND AMMUNITION
BEING TURNED OVER TO REBELS

Washington. Feb. 5.-Hundreds ot
rounds of rifle and machine gun am
munition under seizure along the Mex
lean border are being turned over to
the Mexican rebels as fast as they
prove ownership.
During the two years that the en-
barge on arms has been in force
agents OF the department of justice
have arrested hundreds of men in the
act of Transporting arms across the
border and have seized carloads of
ammunition. In many cases the am
raunitkan SO Eeszed was tly-ned o,s<er
after 1t had beenesised as evidence.
Such arrangements as may be need
ed as evidence against persons still
under indictment will not be relea sed
for the present.
It was said today however that the
department. of justice probably will not
attempt TO prosecute all the cases
against arms smugglers.

BRYAN PLEADS
FOR CAUTION On
ANTI-ALIEN BILL
Secretary of State Urges
House immigration Com
nlittee to Take No Action
On Raker Measure For
Exclusion of Asiatics.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS

Washington. Feb. 5-Secretary
Bryan urged the house immigration
committee today TO take no action on
the Raker bill for exclusion Of Asiatic
immigrants.
Diplomatic negotiations between the
United States and Japan over the anti
alien land laws i'm California and the
whole question of the Asiatic exclusion
was discussed at length behind closed
doors.
The secretary bound Republicans
and Democrats alike to secrecy and
told them the administration needed to
be free from legislative embarrass-
ment in dealing with the situation di-
plomaticaIly.
1t was generally understood that the
state department would be respected
and that no effort would be made to
press the bill before the committee at
this time.
Secretary Bryan told the committee
that unless some untoward cirum-
stances arose he hoped to effect an
amicable adjustment of the Japan
question. Agitation in congress at this
time he declared, would be most un-
fortunate.
Representative Raker and Hayes of
California were the only members of
the committee inclined to oppose the
wish of the secretary that action in the
matter be indefinitely postponed.
Others readily agreed that nothing
should be done which would in any
way ennbarrass the administration.

Of the flames to buildings filled with
valuable merchandise and the firemen

Scores of persons on their way home

The loss today was estimated at
