Washington, Feb. 5.--An agreement
by which no anti-Japanese legislation
will be presented in the house of rep
resentatiyes for the present was reached
today at meeting attended by Secre-
tary Of State Bryan and,the members
of the house immigration committee.
The conference was secret affair, but
it was known that Bryan spoke for an
hour, urging the committee to prevent
all Asiatic exclusion agitation during
the present session of congress.
1t was also known that Bryan told
the committeeman that any action now
on the Raker exclusion bill would i'm
peril negotiations now in progress for
new treaty with Japan. He flatly
stated, it was reported, that an annie
able agreement with Japan was certain,
unless congress persisted in exhibiting
anti-Japanese sentiment.
Clamor in California.
Bryan also declared that most of the
anti-Japanese clamor was confined to
California and other western states, and
asserted that coast newspapers were
largely responsible for the "yelIow
peril bugaboo."
Representatives Raker and Hayes,
both CalifOrnians, were the only com.
mitteemen, it was said, whom Bryan
had trouble in convincing that the pres.
ent was an inopportune time to agitate

Feel DR.. Aked's
Decision to Retire
Probably for Best

UNITED PRESS LEASED wIRE.l
San Francisco, Feb. 5.-If DR.. Chas.
F. Aked cared to retain the presidency
of the San Francisco Church Federation
it was the consensus of opinion among
the organization s members today that
those who want to ask him to resign
would be in a decided minority.
Nevertheless, even among those who
held this view, there was an obvious
undercurrent of feeling that his de.
cision to retirement -''probably"-
was for the best. Despite his own as.
tonishment that his expression of dis
belief in Jesus miraculous birth -
should have caused any comment, it was
clear that the rank and file of members
of the federation considered his views
as unorthodox.
Some Hold His Views.
1T is true, as DR.. Aked says said
the Rev. c. S. Taner of the Richmond
Presbyterian church, one of those who
Offered the resolution suggesting the
formers resignation from the fedora
tion's presidency, "that men holding
his views have been ordained Presby.
terian clergymen, but the men who or.
dained them represented small part
of the church, which was by no means
behind them. In San Francisco these
men would not have been ordained.

GROCERY STORE IS
ROBBED BY BURGLAR
WHO NEEDED FOOD
Takes $45 in Money From Safe
But Leaves Register I'm
touched.
THIEF LIKES sARDINEs
Takes Quantity of IdttlS Fish and
Candy and Is Believed to Have
Learned Safe Combination.

The grocery store conducted by L. H.
Higgins, on the corner of Court and
High streets, was broken into some
time last night and $45 in money, a
dozen cans of sardines and a quantity
of candy was taken.
The thief or thieves forced the side
door of the store which faces on High
street and easily gained access to the
store room proper, Upon investigation
this morning, Chief of Police Shedeck
found that the proprietors of the store
had either left the safe door open last
night or the person who ransacked the
strong box knew the combination as
there was not n scratch on the safe
door and the store keepers told him
that when they opened up early today
they found the door swinging wide
and the money gone. The chief further
discovered that the guilty parties left
ten dollar gold piece and five dollars
in silver lying on the roll top desk
beside the sack in which the store mon.
ey was placed before the safe was
closed at night.

Failed to Touch Register.

The attaches of the store say they
do not remember whether or not they
locked the safe last night one of them
saying that he has forgotten to fix
the combination upon several different
occasions. The chief is inclined to be.
lieve that the robbery was done by
someone who knew the conditions of the
,doors and fixtures in the place and that
although no clew was left upon which
to work, he is almost sure that it was
not stranger's S work.
In any event it was an easy task to
break into the store for the reason the
rear door was not locked securely and
the marks showed this morning that
all the thief did to gain entrance was
to push lightly on the door and force
the bolt which was held by few little
nails.

The man was Paul Spott, an Oakland
plumber. Immediately after his identi-
fication, at Prosecutor 0ppenheim's re-
quest he was arrested.
An important feature Of Miss Pear.
rings testimony was that she did not
know Diggs' real name until New

onepted.
She was II years old, she said, though
she had occasionally, jokiugly, told per-
sons that she was older.
