ignored Third Protest on Act.
Toxic, Jan. 22.-Baron Nobuaki
Maxine, the foreign minister, yester-
day announced to parliament that the
Japanese government was not satisfied
with the replies which it had received
from the United States government in
regard to the California alien land
laws.
The minister intimated japan would
mot he satisfied until some other solu-
.ion of the problem is reached. He
said the Toxic ministry was not ready
10 announce the nature Of the plans
which it has in view.
Baron Makino's announcement that
the American government has made no
reply to Japan's third protest, which
was presented in August, was the sig
nal for an attack on the government
hv several members Of the opposition.
They alleged that too much reliance
mas been placed on the good will OF
America.
The views Of the foreign minister
we're given in his annual address TO
parliament, It was lengthy state
ment. which reviewed the progress or
The whole affair. He said the law
olaces the Japanese residents or Cal-
fcrnia on a different footing from other
aliens and was a discrimination against
them.
The minister revealed the fact tnat
the Japanese ambassador to Wasnlns-
TON obtained an ts9tervieW With PTesi-
dent Wilson on March 5. the day alteE
NJ Wilson took office. He said that IN
thar interview the ambassador asked
Mr.. Wilson to stop the legislation then
nendfng. Mr.. Wilson Informed him ne
would do all possible to obey the wishes
of the imperial government, but SAID ne
couId not interfere with the actions OF
any state.
baron Maxine then told Of further
conferences in Washington: of the ef-
forts Of the administration there 10
have the wording of the treaty changed
and OF the sending Of Secretary Bryan
to Sacramento to address the les1s-
Iators In an effort to head off the pas
sage of the bill. The first two protests
from the imperial government were de-
scribed by the minister, the replies
to both of which, he said. were unsat-
isfactory.
.The imperial government then pre-
Dared the third note Of protest" the
minister continued, "and caused the
ambassador to present 1t, on the 18th
of August to the secretary OF state.
This note remains unanswered.
while the protests of the imperial
government and the replies Of the Un-
tied States government relative to the
land act Of California are as have been
outlined, the details of which the i'm
perial government regrets to be unable
to publish. the replies Of the United
states government were not found sat
isfactory, and the imperial government
has come to see the necessity of con-
sidering some other ways FOR solution
Of the question.
.However, to the regret Of the gov
ernment, the time has not arrived for
reporting on the point"

Late Effort to Amend Bill 10 Ex-
pected.

Washington, Jan. 22.-The proiec,
tor government owned and operated
railway in Alaska was up for a vote
IN the senate today after nearly two
weeks debate. BY unanimous consen,
1t had been agreed to begin the roll
call at o'clock after Senator Pittman
and Senator Dillingham; concluded
their announced speeches on the bill
and senate leaders were confident It
would pass by au overwhelming non
partisan vote.
The subject yet is In the first stages
Of debate in the house where Delegate
Wickersham has offered a measure
there virtually the same as the Cham
berlain bill.
The Chamberlain bill as amended in
committee would authorize the presi-
dent to construct about 1000 miles OF
railroad at cost not to exceed $685.
100000 to connect some point Of the
Pacific coast OF Alaska with the in
terror. Full discretion is left with tho
president to select the route. Efforts
to amend this to include a government
steamship line from the terminal of the
railroad to Pacific coast ports and to
provide for government operation OF
coal mines in Alaska were rejected by
the committee but were expected to be
renewed on the floor.
Republicans Support Bill.
-Four republican senators. Jones.

ported the bill in lengthy arguments
during the debate and Senator Norris
also indicated an intention to vote for
1t. Two democrats. Williams and Bank

sition revolved around government
ownership Of railways.
It was expected before the vote an
effort would be made to amend the
provision permitting the president to
lease the line II in his judgment bet
ter results could be obtained from
private ownership. Some held that If
the government is to build railroads 1t
should also operate the line SO that a
fair test OF government ownership
might be had.
