WASHINGTON, Jan. 12.-Norway has

the Senate by Senator Wesley l.. Jones,
Of Washington. which would deport
from the United States all aliens who.
although they had taken cut their first
papers withdrew them when there was
Danger of their being drafted into the
United States army.
The State Department, in forwarding
the copy Of the protest, signed by
Norwegian Foreign Minister Bryn,
urged Senator Jones not to press his
bill, Acting Secretary Of State Polk
taking the position that it "would
doubtless prove embarrassing to this
government in it's relations with for
eign governments"
Secretary Polk also wrote to the
chairman Of the immigration Commit
tee Of the Senate urging that because
Of this protest che measure should not
be pressed.
No matter whether the protests Of
the State Department will be needed

rooms of furniture, announcing that
the decorations were "too beautiful

Lodge Appears Deserted
The Lodge, which adjolns The Box,
where Jack Longer De Saulles was
murdered by his wife, less than two
years ago, is probably worth $4,000,
although it is said that Lebaudy paid
great deal more for it, 1t has been
on the market for long time, but d
stiff price had been asked for it. The
interior now gives the impression that
it is not tenanted, except in few
of the rooms. The great dining room,
which was claborately decorated has
been stripped of all furniture and is
bare except for child's bicycle. The
majority of the other rooms appear the
same, where Lebaudy had Cleaned up"
Mrs. Charles De Saulles, sister-in-

Woman Merely a Housekeeper
Lebaudy had never married any one

Murdoch said. Mrs Lebaudy had been

France in 1914 with her daughter She

hired her, according to Murdock's story,
and during his absence on business in
South America she assumed the name
of Mrs. Lcbaudy When Lebaudy re-
turned and he heard the neighbors ad-

nothing, and because of this it was
