Secretary Convinces Committee
u. S. Is in No Condition to
Affront LIMOGES.

WASHINGTON, Feb. Definite
and final refusal on the part of the
Wilson Administration to consider
any Asiatic exclusion legislation dur
ing the present Congress was the
burden of the statement given to the
House immigration Committee to-
day by Secretary of state Bryan.
For mere than an hour he set forth
to the members Of the committee. un-
der oath of secrecy. the relations ex-
listing and the possible future comph
cations between the United States
and Japan, and called upon members
of tine committee to refuse 70 con-
slider in any way the Raker bill or
Similar exclusion measures.
When he left the room only Repre-
sentatives Raker end Hayes, OF Cal
ifornia, were opposing him. Hayes
later denied any knowledge of prior
committee agreement to consider
ASldtlC EXCLUSION.
The Republican members of the
committee were seriously concerned.
as were the Democrats, before the
Secretary had finished his recital.
Representative Johnson. of Washing
ton. who was among the most Vio-
lent opponents af Asiatic immisra-
ta ,ol. mt
on the turn affairs had taken. None
of the members except Representa-
tive Raker appeared to have the
slightest doubt chat the agitation OF
the Asiatic question was killed.
The Secretary is understood 10 have
told the committee that the United
States is in no condition to arouse
the jingoes of Japan, and that it was
merely the part of common sense and
patriotism TO accomplish exclusion ny
maintaining the present gentlemen S
agreement" until the public sentiment
in Japan should change. In this view
the majority of the committee con-
Cured.
Bryan also is reported to have told
the committee members that he was
certain to reach an agreement with
Japan on the issues raised by the Cal
ifornia alien land law, if no new OBJ
stacle to such settlement be created
by Congress.
He said he was on the best posi-
BILE terms with the japanese Ambas-
sador, and had every reason to think
that negotiations now pending would
remove any possible cloud which
might rest on the friendship between
the American and japanese people.

Grand Jury Fixing Responsibility
for Camp CrueIties-Commis-
sions Blame Each Other.

With the Grand Jury pledged
to fix the responsibility for the
terrible conditions that prevail
in Fulton County convict camp.
when it resumes its investiga.
took active steps toward the re-
organization of the system, which
it is charged has been RESPONSE
bic for the cruelties to the
shackled convicts.
In letter addressed to the County
Board of Commissioners. the State
Commission suggests that the posi-
tons of County Warden and of SUI
perintendent of Public Works. that
are now held by one NAM be sepa-
rated and two men named to fill the
positions.
Warden Urged for Camps.
The letter sets for the the belief
of the commission that the work of
tina warden should he devoted solely
to taking care of the convicts and
seeing that they. are not mistreated
and that they are provided with com
Portable sleeping and eating quarters.
The commission declares that ii is
impossible for one man to attend to
the duties of the warden. and super
intendent of public works in coun-
ty that works as many convicts on
the roads as does Fulton.
The action of the Prison Commits
sion in sending recommendation Tor
reorganization to the County Board
followed a conference with Philip
Weltner, secretary of the Prison Re-
form Association.
Change Likely To Be Made.
Mr.. Weltner took the letter to the
County Commissioners, and also Will
call the attention of the Grand Jury
to it when that body convenes FRI
day morning.
1t is generally understood that the
County Board will adopt the recon-
mendations of the State Commission,
in which event the warden will re-
ceive a salary of 800 per month and
the superintendent Of public works
probably will have his salary reduced
a small amount. The amount OF the
salary is suggested by the Prison
Commission.
The positions OF county warden and
of superintendent of public works
are now held by S. H. Donaldson, a.
brother of Captain T. j. Donaldson,
who was appointed to the position
when Captain Donaldson was de-
NOTED.
The State Commission also is work.
ing on number of other plans Of
reform which will be presented to the
County Board and to the Grand Jury.
Reforms Proposed.
Among them are: A plan to dis
cipline the convicts without so much
fiogging; separate bathtub for each
convict; a system Of numbering the

so the convicts will not have to eat
