LADY'S AGREEMENT BETWEEN U. s. AND
 JAPAN IS NEEDED
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

TOXIC, Thursday, Nov. 20.-In con- sonance with the object of the society, frankly to discuss American problems, Charles H. Sherrill, former American minister to Argentina. speaking at the American-Japanese dinner last night, urged the Japanese to supplement a gentlemen's agreement by lady s agreement. He suggested this because he believed that the advent of numer- ous "picture brides" in California, im- perilled good relations between the countries more than the Japanese re- alized.
 He contended that the problem of Japanese immigration in California was economic, not racial, saying that since the cheaper living Chinese labor had been excluded and economic fric- ton had been removed the Chinese had become a more popular class.
 You get this Chinese immigration question just as we do," he continued You do not allow Chinese labor to enter Japan and compete with your people"
 An agreement limiting the number of wives going to America, said MT. Sher- Till, would restore the situation on a wise basis.
 A fixed gentleman's agreement would help to remove economic reaction he said.

FURTHER REDUCTION
 IN J. {. DEFICITS IS
 FORECAST BY GLASS
[Republlcan A. p. Leased wirel

WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.-Secretary Glass tonight forecast a further re- duction in monthly deficits of the treasury over the October record and announced that on December l the semi monthly issues of treasury cer- tificates of indebtedness and tax cer- tificates would be resumed.
 While rates on call money have been soaring and the situation in financial centers has been the occasion of some concern, treasury officials point with satisfaction to the reduction of govern ment securities held by banking insti- tutions during the last five months. In that period. Mir Glass figures showed, war bonds and indebtedness certificates held by financial houses dropped sS25, 4e6. 900. Meanwhile, also the nations debt fell to s26,210, so5, COG or net reduction of S3S5, 900, ,000 from its highest mark at the end of August
 The reduction in the countrys debts resulted largely from the increase in treasury receipts through the sales of war materials. Decrease in current ex- penditures also aided materially.
 The new series of indebtedness cer- tificates to be issued will bear date of December l and be payable on Febru- ary Is, 1920. The interest rate will be A per cent. Tax certificates to be is sued at the same time at the same in- terest rate, will be payable March 15, 1920, or on the date on which a tax installment is due
 The total amount of indebtedness certificates outstanding on November 1 was $1,634, ,671 ,0e0. Tax certificates outstanding on the same date amount | ed to S1 1,S27, ,5S6, 900. Of this amount however, s746.s59, 800 is payable on De cember 15 from income and excess profits installments due on that date.

UNKNOWN SPREADS REPORT
 THAT PRESIDENT IS DEAD

somewhat he told the audience what had been told him. He could hardly speak. Women broke into weeping and some one began to play Nearer, My God, to Thee" on the immense organ.
 As soon as he could. the vice presi- dent got to a telephone and called the Associated Press where he was assured that there was no truth in such a rumor
 Thank God" he replied.
 Meantime the audience was dispers- ing and the false report spread over the city. Newspapers were almost swamped with telephone inquiries
 No reason for the hoax had been ad- vanced by local officials tonight, but an immediate investigation was begun.
 Governor Dorsey announced a re- ward of S100 for evidence identifying the person who started the rumors.
 MT Marshall came here to speak in behalf of a fraternal order and had not made more than half his address when he was interrupted.

DEATH LIST IN
 DANCE PAVILION FIRE |S NOW 25
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

VILE PLATE, La, Nov. 23. - Twenty-Five persons, most of them women and girls. lost their lives here last night in a fire which quickly de- stroyei a frame building in which 300 of the village folk were making merry al a dance. Fifteen others were seri- ously hurt, and search of the ruins was expected to add to the list of the dead
 Ten of the dancers were burned to death and others were crushed in a stampede to reach the street down a narrow stairway, while the flames were sweeping rapidly from the lower floor. More than a score of babies. tucked safely away in little nursery on the second floor with the dance hall. were rescued by mothers who had taken them there along with their children of dancing age. Some of the youngsters were picked up and hurled bodily into the outstretched arms of people in the street below
 The fire started in a grocery store and a tongue of flame reached out and startled a crowd in a moving picture theater, in the same building with the grocery and the dance hall. A man standing near the door shouted to the audience to move out quietly and none were hurt
 The flames spread so rapidly that i the whole lower floor was a roarine ! blaze before the dancers in the hal i above were aware of their danger. l Instantly there was a panic, and tn, crowd. men, women and children | made a mad rush for the single exit
 the narrow stairway leading down tn,
 side of the burning building. Thi:
 soon was choked, and many of thos,
 who were trapped escaped throrgi
 windows to the roof of an adjoinins
 building. Many of the victims wer, burned beyond recognition and bits O | jewelry were the only means of iden
 tification of the bodies.

BELIEVE JAP-U. 5.
 DISPUTE NEAR E|ND
TRepublican A. P. Leased Wire]

TOKYO, Thursday, Nov. 23.-The American government has replied to Japan's answer to the American note concerning cooperation as regards the operation of the rans-Siberia rail way The American reply notes with satisfaction Ja1an's willingness to co- operate, but points out the futility of bringing forward concrete instances of any lack of cooperation in the past The conciliatory nature of the Amer ican reply is such as to give the im- pression here that a further exchange of notes will be unnecessary and that the incident is considered closed
 It is pointed out in high quarters here that the recent friendly inter cession by Japanese troops in Chita, when General Semenoff tried to seize a portion of the rifles the Americans were forwarding to Ad- miral Kolchak is evidence of Jap anese determination to cooperate with the Americans. The notes ex- changed between the two governments has not been published.

Early End To Coal Dispute
 Is Predicted
[RepubIIean A. P. Leased wirel


 WASHINGTON, Nov. 23-The inter vention of Fuel Administrator Gar field tomorrow in the tagging negotia- tions of bituminous operators and miners of the central competitive field was expected tonight to bring to a climax the long drawn out conflict and clear the way for speedy settlement of the strike situation which has put the country on the verge of a coal famine.
 Although the day brought no new developments here, as mine ownecs and workers awaited action by the administration tomorrow, it was evil dent that both sides recognized a set clement could not long be delayed. No formal meetings of any sort were held.
 Reports received by operators from middle western states showed that the coal scarcity already had reached the famine stage and that the coal scarcity already had reached the famine stage and that the cold weather had brought suffering and hardship.
 Several operators today declared their willingness to accept whatever proposition the government might of fer. With the entire country aroused to the need of resuming the produc- ton of coal on a normal basis, neither the miners nor the owners of the prop critics, they said, could afford to turn deaf ear to recommendations of the government.
 As the situation now stands as re- gard wage advances, the operators have offered an increase of 20 per cen, and the miners have agreed to accept the 31 per cent proposed by Secretary Wilson,. The possibility of a colnpro- mise between those figures, part oi the increase to be paid by the publk in higher prices and some to come ou of the margin of the mining compan- ies. was suggested in some circles. ana | it was said this would be placed before | both sides tomorrow

jAPs ARE CONCERNED ABOUT SENATE ACTION O|I SHANTUNG CLAUSE
GRe publican A. p. Leased Wire1

TOKYO, Wednesday, Nov. 21.-The adoption Of the Shantung reservation by the United States senate caused some apprehension here as to how. if it were embodied in the German peace treaty, it would affect the Chinese situation. The foreign office has de- clined to comment on the question. It has reiterated however, it's inten- tion to endeavor to open negotiations with China on the Shantung question as soon as the general ratification of the treaty is announced in Paris.
 Representative Japanese are ex- pressing the fear that the recurring criticism of everything Japan does" as they put it, is likely to create the impression that there is some basis for the idea of deliberate unfriendlipess. They say many economic advantages which Japan obtains in Shantung are duplicated by other countries in other parts of China.
 At dinner given in honor of vis- count Ishii, former ambassador to the United States, by the Japan society at which American Ambassador Morris was present. Viscount Ishii said that he had consistently endeavored to ex- plain to his countrymen something of their ignorance regarding America and Americans. While he deplored the "indiscreet utterances" of some Amer ican newspapers and some Americans concerning Japan. he had repeatedly warned the Japanese, especially the press, of the mischevious effects which were likely to grow out Of hasty, in- considerate criticisms of the United States and especially of it's president. The Japanese declared he deprecated nothing stronger than the altogether undeserved attacks that had been made upon President Wilson.
 After congratulating Americans on the remarkable and conspicuous part their illustrious president" had played in the struggle for the world read iustment. the viscount expressed re- gret that the Paris conference had not l incorporated some guarantee in the league of nations covenant against radical discrimination. He believed that the omission of the just proposi- ton made by Japan would affect the prestige of the league, but he was confident it would prevail ultimately and without undue delay
 "The defense" he said. should bt common as the danger is common te all countries. All petty and seffisf consideration of a racial and economic character should be merged into ths vaster consideration of this common l defense"
