COUNSELS
Secretary Convinces Committee
U. S. Is iRNo Condition to
Affront LIMOGES.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 5.-Defnite
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
20 the members OF the committee, I'M
der oath of secrecy. the relations ex-
listing and the possible future compli-
cations between the United States
and Japan, and called upon members
OF the committee to refuse to con-
slider in any way the Raker bill OF
similar exclusion measures
When he left the room only Repre-
sentatlves' Raker and Hayes. OF Cal
ifornia, were opposing him. Hayes
later denied any knowledge of a prior
committee agreement to consider
Asiatic 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 Of Asiatic immigra-
ton. refused to make any comment
on the turn affairs had taken. None
of the members except Representa-
tive Raker appeared to have the
slightest doubt that the agitation of
the Asiatic question was killed.
The Secretary is understood to have
told the committee that the United
States is in no condition to arouse
the jingoes of Japan, and that II was
merely the part of common sense and
patriotism TO accomplish exclusion by
maintaining the present "gentlemens
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 a settlement be created
by Congress.
He said he was on the best possi-
BILE terms with the Japanese Ambas-
sador, and had every reason to think
that negotiations now pending wound
remove any possible cloud which
might rest on the friendship between
the American and japanese people

one of the most atrocious ever COM

confession. was that the girl was
