Suggestions That Americans

japanese must be careful in their
comments on the situation between

by the Burnett immigration BILL" said
Y. Sega, editor of the Nippu Jill.
THE opinion of the Japanese associa-

rotary of the Japanese Association
of Hawaii, has plan in view of ex-
GLIDING the Americans from Japan.
This idea does not represent the
thoughts of the majority of Japanese
in Hawaii 1t is a move that is GER
tain to create much discussion. The
association is not the mouthpiece OF
the Japanese community.

unreasonable, and am opposed to it,
but although / like DR.. Negoro as a
friend, I do not believe that the poll

have stated their ideas on the subject.
President Wilson will not sign the

retaliation plan. That is the belief
of the majority of Japanese in Ha-
wall, as the president is known as a
friend of humanity and friend of
justice. ... ....... r.
THE attempt to petition the Japa-
nese government to exclude Ameri-
cans may be a threat to influence the
congressman in Washington, but / do
not see how it can result in anything
defiite, as there are only handful of
Americans in Japan as compared to

/ do not believe that the ideas of the
h Japanese association represents the
thoughts of the majority of the Japa-
nese in Hawaii" he concluded.
A prominent Japanese stated today
that there are many men of influence
in America who are fighting the
Burnett bill, and inasmuch as the
japanese government had protested
against the passage of the bill, he did
not believe that the local organiza-
ton should take the matter up until
the government had expressed def
mite opinion. According to his state
ment the newspapers in Japan are OPP
posing the bill, but have not suggested
retaliation ..E T.. -.

Three DeIirious Sailors All That
is Saved From Wreck of
S. S. Roanoke
rA.socia.od Prsss b. Federal wirsIsssl

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, May III
Three half-frozen semi-delirious sea-
men are all who are left alive of the
crew of the old steamer Roanoke,
which foundered off Point San Luis.
1870 miles south of this city, Tuesday
afternoon. III -. s.
Forty others, including the wife Of
Capt Dickson, and the master himself,
are believed to have been drowned
when the vessel turned bottom-up IN
the tremendous seas that were run
ming, or were swamped afterwards in
the boats which were launched before
the vessel sank under the waves.
The first intimation of the disaster
came yesterday afternoon when a
drifting, water-logged ships boat was
observed from the lighthouse at Point
San Luis, and by the faint movement
of the prone human forms to be seen
through the glasses of the keepers, ap-
pealed for assistance. That assistance
was sent and the boat towed to Port
San Luis, where the men, three alive
and five dead, were cared for
Survivors in Serious Condition.
The living sailors were unconscious
when at last picked up by the rescu-
ing boats, and even when revived
lapsed at once into delirium, exagger-
ated by fever brought on by their
frightful experiences. Only one, Man
uel Lopez, was able to give any &C
count of what had happened. -
!, According to the story told by this
seaman, the Roanoke was badly over
loaded when she left San Francisco,
May 8, bound for Valparaiso, Chile,
with a general cargo that included
900 tons of dynamite. There were
no passengers on board, but the cap
tain took his wife along with him in
the cabin. 49,. .=..s
Almost Immediately after leaving
the Golden Gate the Roanoke began
to feel the effect of the gale that was
blowing Her cargo proved to have
been badly slowed, and gave trouble
from the start.
Ship Turns Turtle. H..
The ship continued tc wallow south,
ward and westward until somewhere
north of Point San Luis. Then a gil
gantic comber seized her and lifted
her skyward, fitting her over at a
dangerous angle. There was crash
of shifting cargo, and the steamer, in
stead of rightilg herself, began to
capsize. "#.: .....
