Render Allies Laughing st oCk of World

PARIS, Jan. Definite informa-
tion reached here today that Hollands
reply to the supreme councils request
for extradition of the former kaiser
will be refusal. The Dutch reply
had not been received here at a late
hour this afternoon.
Allies Will Insist.
LONDON. Jan. 23.-The allies will
not accept Hollands refusal to permit
the extradition of wilhelm. it is learn
ed from authoritative sources. Tho
refusal will probably be followed by a
long series of secret legal arguments.
Holland May Win.
Based on precedents established by
British law, the concensus of opinion
here seems to be that the expected
negotiations will result favorably to
Hollands attitude and that the kaiser
will be delivered to the allies only in
the event of voluntary surrender.
THE HAGUE, Jan. 23.-The Dutch
governments reply to the allied note
demanding the surrender of the for
mer kaiser is a flat refusal it is to-
day reported. The public and press
unanimously took it for granted that
the government would not comply
with the extradition demand. basing
its contention on legal obstacles
Newspapers pointed out that Hoi-
land would render a service to civili-
zation by refusing to allow action
which in the future would be regret
ted by everybody" Foreign diplomatic
also unofficially expressed their de-
sire that the demand be not granted,
declaring if it were the allies would
become the laughing stock of the
world"

GOVERNORS VETO
WONT BLOCK NAVAL

Though Resentful Over Veto As
toria People Say Means Will

ASTOR RIA. Or, Jan. 23.-Astoria
naval base plans received a setback
through the action of Governor Olcott
who Thursday night affixed his veto
to the measure introduced .at the spe-
Icial session of the Oregon legislature
last week by Senator Norblad, which
measure passed both the senate and
house, the bill giving the port of AS

I tent Of > per cent of the total as
sessable property within the district,
I for the purpose of raising money with
which TO purchase for 100000 the
Tongue point site for naval base. to

for that purpose.
The news of the action taken by
Governor Olcott was received with
surprise and chagrin by those who
have been active i'm securing the pas
sage Of the Senate Bin No. is. intro
duced by Senator Norblad. and the
veto of the measure was the topic of
conversation throughout the city.
Nobody was more surprised by the
news that the bill was vetoed than
was Senator Norblad who put the bill
through the legislature.
''It is great blow to Astoria" said
senator Norblad. "and ] cannot agree
with the reasons expressed by the
governor for vetoing themcnsure. The
least that he might haze done was "a
consult the author OF the bill and find
out II an emergency really did exist
He did not do so. The emergency
clause was attached to the bill for the
reason that an emergency does exist
Other Oregon ports were consulted
and their representatives agreed that
the port of Astoria bill was all right
DR.. Alfred Kinney. one of the COM
missioners, said: Apparently the
governor had other reasons than the
facts in the case for vetoing the port
bill. or else he has taken somebody
else's word for the effect that the bill
viii have on other ports; or else. he
has never read the port of Astoria bill.
''It looks like other interests in the
state had brought pressure to bear on
the governor and asked that our bill
be vetoed. But we are not going to
cry over spilled milk. The blow is
not serious one to Astoria for other
means of acquiring the naval base site
will be found.
mo other one town can keep us
down nor prevent us from becoming
n great seaport city. No blow can jar
Astoria now. l might add that wheat
for export will be worth more than so
than in Portland terminals, too. Ship
ping is going to give us the benefits
we deserve and are going to have"
