GRAFT SCANDAL
CAUSES ANXIETY
AMONG JAPANESE
Retirement Of Baron Saito
and Count YamamOtO May
Cause Fresh Trouble
REAL CULPRITS HAVE
ESCAPED PUNISHMENT
Men in More Exalted Position
In Nation are Believed
to be Implicated

Yokohama, May 1.-THE retirement
Of Admirals Count Yamamoto and Ba.
ron Saito in connection with the navy
graft scandal threatened today to pre-
cipitate fresh trouble in parliament.
1t was not charged that Yamamoto
and Saito profited personally by the
graft but Premier Count Okuma took
the position that they ought to have
known about II and retired them for
their carelessness. Both admirals, how
ever, are influential men and it was
understood that their friends among
the lawmakers intended to raise the
point that while they, despite the fact
that they are not suspected of actual
dishonesty, have been severely discip-
lined, none of the real culprits has been
punished.
What will be intimated, and perhaps
said outright, is that men in even moro
exalted positions than the two admir-
ais are involved and that the admins
tration fears it viii expose them if it
presses the actual offenders too hard
The general impression was that the
affair had many sensations yet in
store, quite possibly of proportions suf
ficiently severe to shake the govern
ment.

interested persons, which willrecommen

Yesterday the committee agreed up
on minimum wage of $500 for women
employed in factories. The employers
on the committee started at $3.50 and
gradually came up to $3.50. The en-
ployes started at $40 and came down
to so. A compromise Of 1915 was pro-
posed and voted for by the employers
but the employees and disinterested
members voted it down.
Finally wage of $500 was agreed
upon.

Not Taken Seriously.

Washington, May 14.--A report, bas-
cd on private message received in
San Francisco, that President Huerta
was on his way to the Mexican west
coast, was not taken very seriously in
official circles here today.

week had it that the dictator was head
ed westward from the capital, and it
was believed here that tnis report had
INST reached the coast and was the
h'sis of the San Francisco message.
u was known, at any rate, that
Huerta was in Mexico City last night
and had no immediate intention of
leaving. The impression here was that
when he does leave, If he does 50 at
all, he will transfer his headquarters
to Puebla.
Admiral Howard 3 fleet, it was stat
ed, had, indeed, been on the alert for

cert the capital unless General Villa

WITH BRITISH FLAGS
HUERTA's SON REPORTED TO
HAVE RUN DOWN WASHINGTON
STATUE WITH AUTOMOBILE.

Oakland, CAL, May 14.-After being
held as hostage at Aqua Calientes for
several days on their flight to the Mex
lean coast, from mob that attacked
them at Zacatecas when news was re-
ceived from Huerta 20 the effect that
American soldiers had killed all the
Mexican women and children at Fort
Bliss and Vera Cruz, G. B. Mckay,
with his father and mother, Mr.. and
Mrs. ]. L. Mckay, arrived in Oakland
today after Is years spent in Mexico.
They said they owed their lives to the
British consuls in the towns through
which they passed in their flight. Brit
ish flags were pinned on them and saw
ed them from the mobs.
The McKays said tuat Huerta 3 son
was the man who destroyed George
Washington statue in Mexico City,
running it down in his automobile and
laying it at the feet of the Aztec mon
ument. They say that donkeys' trails
in Mexico City were decorated with
small American flags, much to the
amusement of the jecring populace.
From Mexico City the McKays made
their way to Puerto Mexico under
British protection. At the latter port
they were only saved from violence by
the presence of British sailors, who
mingled with the crowds.
Mckay is bitter in his complaint of
the collector of the port of New Or
leans, who he claims forced mis- party,
with 90 other refugees, among them
so children, to sleep on unprotected
decks without bedding or mosquito net.
