PROTEST IS MADE
ON Filipino Who
IS 'CITIZENIzED'
District Attorney Vaughan
Notes Objection to Judge
Clemens Action. .

Pauline De GuZman. a native Of the
Philippine Islands, was admitted 10
American citizenship in federal court
today. benz The first member Of his
race to be accorded naturalization pri-
vileges since the filing Of Judge &. r.
Clemens decision holding that Fill
pines are eligible TO citizenship.
In accordance with instructions re
ceiyed from Washington. d. c., Dis.
trict Attorney Horace w. Vaughan
protested the naturalization Of De
Guzman, stating q numGer ofaRrounds
upon which he believed the Filipino
should not be naturalized: Judge
Clemens stated that all the points of
protest were fully covered in his de-
cision, ard he ordered De sGzman
sworn in =.
Stating his objections to the court
Mr.. Vaughan said; ..... ~. ..-.
"'The government, objects to the nat.
uralization CT this petitioner. on the
ground that he is not eligible to nat.
uralization for the reason that this
petitioner is a citizen of the Philip.
pines, and his status is fixed by the
act of Congress organizing the gov
eminent OF the Philippines. Also, that
the laws OF the United States do not
provide for the naturalization of Fill
pinos, they not being aliens, but sub
ject to the sovereign jurisdiction OF
the United States.
Congress never made them citi.
zens. They are not aliens in the
sense, of eligibility for naturalization.
The government further protests be-
cause of the fact that section 216S
of the revised statutes governs the nat
uralization of all parties. whether sub
ject to the jurisdiction of the United
States. or aliens, and this section for.
bids the naturalization Of any persons
except those who are free white per-
son or persons of African descent or
nativity.
There Is also no law authorizing
the naturalization Of persons subject
to the sovereign Jurisdiction of the
United States and not aliens"
Mr. Vaughan noted an exception to
the admission of De Guzman and not
ed an appeal,

SYLVIA ARREST

Lorrin Andrews, chairman of the
civil service commission, today denied
a statement appearing in a morning
paper to the effect that he had said
he knew that Mr. Garden had been to
Judge Monsarrat at noon yesterday
to obtain a warrant for the arrest of
John F. sylvia, regarding whom habeas
corpus proceedings were being held
in Judge Whitney's court. AS print
ed yesterday afternoon warrant was
brought into the court room stopping
the proceedings.
What | did say, or intended to
say Mr. Andrews declared today,
was that complaint was drawn in
the city and county attorneys office,
evidently by Mr.. Garden or Mr.. Cristy,
and presented to Judge Monsarrat be-
tween and 3 o'clock by a represen-
tative CT that same Office with the
statement, according to Judge Mon
sarrat, that Judge Whitney had heard
and decided the case and had dis
charged Sylvia. ..
my objection to the proceedings
were that they savored OF dlsrespect
to the court, in that it was necessary
for the attorneys to make return
stating on what ground they had been
holding the defendant and if they had
made out warrant it was hardly CON
sistent with respect that the prose
cutting officer should treat court
thus before whom the case was being
tried" T.

FUNSTON GOES MEET OBREGON

SAN ANTONIO, April 26.-Advices received here state that General Funston, commander in chief of the United States troops along the Mexi- can border, has been ordered here to confer with Generals Scott, chief of Staff of the United States army, and General Obregon, Mexican secretary of war.
 The subject of the conference is undoubtedly the withdrawal of the American expedition from Mexico, but what the probable outcome will be or the terms imposed in the event of the withdrawal, officials refuse to state
 From Mexican sources it is learned that General Pershing's command in Mexico, is moving north, but the re- port that they will come back across the line at this time. receives little credence here. It is believed that Pershing's move is merely for the purpose of getting a better strategic position in the event the Mexican troops now moving north should at tack.

age is generally regarded as indicat- ing that everything at the new rail road town is quiet and peaceable. and that no rioting has followed the strike. This is confirmed by tele gram received last night by Charles McCallum, secretary of the local Min CTS Union. from P. H. Ringstad. sec retary of the new Alaska Labor Union under whose auspices the strike on the government railroad was called. The telegram. which is dated April "A, states: A general strike went into effect April 22. -Walkout almost com today. Complete success. Everything today. Complete success. Everything carried on quietly and peaceably. Longshoremen refuse at any price un- til settled.
 The Marshals office is likewise lacking in information from the scene of the strike. Instructions were sent to the deputy at that place to keep the Marshal advised as to hap penings there. and the failure to re- ceive any communication is taken to indicate that everything is quiet.
 Instructions were also sent to ad wise of the arrival of Judge Brown and such other information as might arise from his reaching that place Late this afternoon the office was ad yised that the Judge had reached there. but the message contained TO additional information.
 It is stated on good authority that the order for the sending of the Fort Liscum troops to Anchorage has been withdrawn. and that unless trouble occurs at the new railroad town they will remain here.

WASHINGTON, April 26.--Secre- tary of the Interior Lane has ordered all work stopped on the new Alaska Railroad until after the settlement of the strike now under way at Anchor age.
 This action on the part of the Sec retary of the Interior was taken after la long conference participated in by Secretary of Commerce Redfield. Sec retary of Labor Wilson and Attorney General Gregory. It is understood that this action is final and that if the strike continues for any consid- erable length of time. there will be little construction work in Alaska this year.
 So far as can be learned here no trouble has occurred at Anchorage but the Secretary has decided that the work cannot he continued success fully upon a contingent wage scale. When the board of conciliation and arbitration is received. and the wage scale recommended by the board is shown to be acceptable to the work ingmen, the work will be again taken lup.
 In certain circles opposed to the government ownership and operation fof railroads the news of the strike and the order of the Secretary stop ping all work, is hailed with glee, and it is predicted that little or no further work will be done on the road On the other hand it is said that the road will be constructed to the Matanuska coal fields this sum- mer. and that further work on the road is problematical.

 Placed in Machine Which was Then
 Run at High Speed Into a Tree, to Give Appearance Accident.

TAMPA, Fla. April 26.-Dr. Mer- lin Anchor of this clly, was taken into custody -. charged wlln the mur- der of his wife.
 The crime is of the most atrO- cious in the history of this city. It was at first given out that the woman was the victim of an automobile ac- cident. Investigation by the police. however, revealed it is alleged. that the automobile accident was merely a ruse to cover the murder.
 The police allege that they secured evidence that the doctor murdered his wife during a quarrel by striking her over the head with some blunt in strument, crushing her skull and causing almost instant death. It is said he then placed the body into the hood of his automobile and then ran the machine at high speed into tree. to give the affair the appearance of an accident, following which the doc tor gave out that the woman had been killed by the collision.
 The cause of the quarrel and alleg- ed murder is said to be that Mrs. An chor had lost four thousand dollars worth of jewelry, through what the doctor termed gross carelessness, and they had quarreled bitterly on the suI;oot Thov hod haon married hut six months.
