Inasmuch ai the President has In
terostcd himself In the bill requiring
railroads to move livestock at a rate
not less than 16 miles an fcour, legts-

The Pacific Coast members of

prehension that some Japanese la
borers have entered the country
through Mexico, but It is learned
that Mexico Is negotiating with Jap
an for practically the same regula
tions that have been applied to the
United States.
The House has unanimously
