f THE SUNDAY OREGONIAN. PORTLAND, FEBRUARY 3, 1907. JAPANESE WILL FIGHT EXCL Colony in San Francisco Sends Lawyer East to Protest. OPPOSED TO COMPROMISE Schmltz Will Go to Washington With School Bounl Exclusion League iill Dectre Agninst Jap anese In Schools. BAJN FRANCISCO, Feb. 2. (Special.) That the easy solution of the Japanese question suggested In the dispatches from Washington Is a long way from attain ment was made evident today, when offi cial representatives of the Japanese col ony announced that they were prepared to resist exclusion at all costs. As an Intention of their purpose to demand that Japanese be admitted to all the schools and to light any attempt to exclude Jap anese laborers, they have commissioned Masuji Miyakawa to proceed at once to 'Washington to present their side of the case to the Japanese ambassador. Pres ident Roosevelt and Secretary Root. Miyakawa Is the only Japanese attor ney ever admitted to practice In the Cal ifornia courts. He has been conducting the school ca.se, now in the Federal courts, for the Japanese. He has degrees from three American colleges, ne auuu.cu law at Columbia and graduated with hon ors. Japanese Wish No Compromise. Miyakawa will leave for Washington to morrow morning on the lame train with Mayor Schmita and the members of the Board of Education. He gave out an authoritative Interview tonight. In which he said In plain terms that the Japanese wUhed no compromise, that they desired the school question decided by the courts, and that they would oppose with all their force any compromise that would grant the demands of Japanese on the school issue In exchange for a treaty ex cluding Japanese laborers from America.. "The Japanese are a sea-faring race," he said, "they naturally wander. They will not agree to anything which would restrict their rlKht of residence. As for the school question, we desire to have that settled In the courts. If California In upheld, well, then It will be a subject to be taken up between the two coun tries." War Not Possible Now. "Do you think war possible?" he was flatly asked. "Well, not now." "Suppose the present negotiations fall?" "Well, in that caee Japan and America will undertake to negotiate a new treaty and, when the two countries come to gether, you cannot tell what will hap pen." Miyakawa represents practically the en tire Japanese population of California. He. made the first objection to the eegret gation order and called a mass meeting and drew up the resolutions which were forwarded to Japan and which precipi tated the entire controversy. In an editorial today, the Japanese New World, edited by Kanpo Kuwabana, and believed by San Franciscans to be sub sidized by the Japanese government, takes the same stand as Miyakawa. It asserts that the Japanese will not yield on exclusion for concessions on the school question. While moderate In terms, the editorial is positive In its assertions. Schmltz Going With School Board. After obtaining permission from Asslst tant District Attorney Heney, who is in charge of the graft cases, Mayor Schmlti announced that he would accompany the Board of ISducatlon to Washington". The party will consist of the Mayor, School Superintendent Roncovlerl, School Direc tors Walsh, Boyle, Altman. Boyle and Oliver. Secretary Leffingwell. and As sistant City Attorney Williams. The party will leave tomorrow morning. A conference of the school directors and the Mayor was held today and at its conclusion no positive announcement was made as to the stand the body will take, but It Is known that In Its present mood it is not inclined to yield to the Presi dent on the mere chance of obtaining ex clusion. It will require positive assur ance that toy yielding, an exclusion law will be possible or that the situation Is so serious that patriotism demands that conceptions be made. The Mayor, who has denied himself to all representatives of the press since his return from Europe, because of the at tacks made on his administration, talked with the newspaper men at length today. He said that he considered it his duty to go to Washington. "I may say," he added, "that my per sonal trouble here is so small in com parison with tho present issue, that It can be put aside for a time." The absence of Schmltz will In no way delay the graft trials. Mr. Heney Is ready to begin the trial of Ruef and will not be ready for Schmltz for some weeks. Opposed to Compromise. The Korean Exclusion League will hold a state convention In San Francisco to morrow. Resolutions were prepared to night for adoption at the meeting. The resolutions In positive terms call for the exclusion of Japanese laborers, decry a National attitude of humility in the face of the demands of Japan and call for leg islation without regard to the wishes of the Orientals. GERMANY EXPECTS XO WAR But Rumors Depress Stocks Amer ica Is Under Handicap. BERLIN. Feb. 2. The Foreign Of fice does not regard the differences be tween the United States and Japan as having reached a serious point. The Japanese Embassy, replying today to Inquiries from various newspapers, said there was no reason to consider the relations between Japan and the United Suites as being In any way strained, adding that President Roose velt doubtless will settle the whole matter to the satisfaction of Japan. Disquieting telegrams sent out widely early In the forenoon by the Ticker News Company had a depressing Influ ence upon the Bourse. The Japanese Government apparent ly has not bought any guns or mili tary supplies In Germany during re cent months. The Vosslsche Zeitung's Bourse re port today says: "Prices upon the Bourse today were depressed, owing to the dispute which hus arisen between the United States and Japan, which Is regarded here, as In London, as being very serious. The lower quotations of Japanese bonds In Lon.lon caused a similar decline In Berlin." Japanese 414 Per cents fell over of a point, but recovered partly after the close of the Bourse. The newspapers here spread on "the threatened war between tie United States USIOfJ and Japan," give comparisons of the navies of the two countries, point to the Isolated position of the American fleet In Philippine waters,, and the diffi culties the United States would en counter In concentrating a fleet, send ing It to the Far East and operating It successfully at such a distance from Its base, and so on, but they fully rec ognize the enormous reserve power of the United States, and also the prob ability that the President will succeed in satisfactorily arranging: the ques tions under discussion. ROOSEVELT PREVENTED CRISIS Kaneko Says Japan Trusts Him to Protect Rights. TOKIO, Feb. 2. (Afternoon.) Baron Kantaro Kaneko, a distinguished member of the Japanese House of Peers and a spe cial Ambassador recently detailed by the Imperial government to visit America and study political and economic condi tions there, in an interview with the cor- "respondent here of .the Associated Press today on the San Francisco school ques tion, said: "From the outset I knew it to be a local question, unindorsed by American public opinion, and I have been speaking of It to my friends In that light. This is more than conlirmed by President Roosevelt's message, which I consider the greatest utterance, since the farewell message of President Washington. It Is unprecedent ed in the way it so strongly advocates a foreign cause. No stronger or abler ad vocate can be found for Japan. When the text of his message bearing on the school question was fully translated In the leading papers throughout this coun try, even In the Island of Formosa, all could readily see and appreciate the pro foundness of his arguments. Had . the question arisen elsewhere the crisis would have occurred and loud defiance have been uttered for the length and breadth of the Empire. On the contrary, the quiet tone of the press clearly demon strates the strength of the confidence re posed in President Roosevelt and the typical American sentiment generally. "As a sincere friend of America, I could not help but regret that San Francisco officials should have chosen innocent chil dren for effecting their political ends. "All my friends who have recently re turned from abroad making comparative observation of educational systems in civ ilized countries concur in giving the first rank to the American system. The fact that such an excellent fruit of civiliza tion has been refused to the children of a friendly power and that, too, in a country acknowledged as the practical ex ponent of humanitananlsm, only tends to alienate It from the sympathies of the civilized wrld." FRIENDLY COMPROMISE MADE Pride of Japan Will 'Be Saved on School Question. CHICAGO, Feb. 2. A dispatch to the Tribune from Washington says; "War with Japan Is the remotest of possibilities. The difference between the two countries, owing to the refusal of San Francisco to permit Japanese pupils to enter the public schools of that city, never has reached the stage where it cre ated a fear of an armed clash between the two countries. "Reports of possible war that have been sent out from Washington are not only misleading, but are wholly unjustified by any facts in possession .of this Govern ment. The relations between the United States and the Empire of Japan never were more cordial than they are today. The Japanese diploma Lie representatives are well acquainted with the situation and President Roosevelt has succeeded in se curing the consent of Japan to a basis of compromise which will settle the whole difficulty, within a year or two, providing the people of San Francisco do their part. "The treaty which is pending and which is the direct result of the delicate inter vention of the President was not framed by either country because there was the slightest danger of war. It was brought about because the Japanese realized that it was not to their interest to have their people come to the mainland of Amer ica, because they would not be treated fairly here. At the same time they were entirely unwilling to submit to anything In the nature of International Insult, and generously have agreed to the signing of a treaty preventing their people landing in the United States and prohibiting our worxing men landing in tne Japanese Is lands. "All they have asked has been that as a purely temporary matter, and In order to save their national pride, Japanese children of school age In San Francisco. who until October 15 or thereabouts were received In the public schools on an equal ity with American children, shall continue to be so received. As the Japanese are to De barred out by the treaty, the chil dren of that race of school age naturally will disappear within a few years, and thus the Pacific Coast will be free of the threat of Japanese immigration and of the association of white with Japanese children of the coolie class. On the other hand the Pacific slope wants the Japan ese excluded, and when that is done will be entirely satisfied. It rests with the school authorities of San Francisco to say whether the fair compromise arranged by President Roosevelt shall be in force or not. SCHOOL QUESTION A PRETEXT Hobson Says Japan Could, Take Ha wait and Philippines. NEW YORK, Feb. 2. In an address here last night. Captain Richmond P. Hobson, speaking of the Japanese ques tion in California, said: "The ultimatum which Japan has given this country says: "Take back our people to your public schools in San Francisco or suffer the consequences.' That is only a pretext. The trouble is, Japan wants to control the commerce and markets of the Far East. She is determined to drive America out of the Philippine Islands. "If the Panama Canal were completed, we might bo able tq protect the Pacific Coast, but we are helpless now, and, should Japan strike, the Philippines and the Hawaiian Islands would be lost to us. This is the real situation, and it is a pity that we have not strong fleets both on the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans to protect our Interests and keep Japan from attacking us. War with Japan Is inevitable unless we can convince the financiers of Europe and the people that there Is really no cause for Japan to go to war with us." STOP COOLIE IMMIGRATION Japanese Merchants Chime In With Cry of California. LOS ANGELES, Feb. 2. An appeal to the Japanese government and to the leading Japanese citizens of Hawaii to stop further immigration of Japanese coolie labor to the United States was formulated and adopted at today's meeting of the Japanese Association of America The resolution Is aimed to placate the Ire of the labor interests of the Coast, which has been aroused against the importation of coolie labor. "We want to gain the confidence of the Californlans by compelling their respect," said Garuku Ikeia, secretary of the association, today, "and to do this we shall have to eliminate or re duce the coolie element In the 'Jap anese population here. We have pre pared this petition looking to the with holding of .this class In order to antici pate and prevent the radical exclusion of the Japanese as a race from the country," i TO REPAIR OREGON Million Set Aside to Overhaul Famous Battleship. BIG CRAFT SOON OBSOLETE Balanced Elliptical Turrets, Like In diana, Will Be Put on at Pu get Sound Navy-Yard to Prevent Heeling. WASHINGTON, Feb. 2. The famous battleship Oregon is to be modernized, and Secretary Metcalf announced to day that he had authorized the ex penditure of $1,000,000 out of the naval repair fund for that purpose. Of the best type of warships when she was launched, the Oregon Is already almost obsolete, and to make her equal to modern men of war she must be ex tensively overhauled. The changes will be similar to those ordered for her sister jihlp, the Indiana, and the most Im portant being the substitution of bal anced elliptical turrets for the pres ent round turrets, which cause the ship to heel when all four 12-lnch guns are .pointed over the same quarter. The alterations will be made at fhe Puget Sound Navy-Yard, where the Oregon has been lying since her return from the China station, and will con sume one year. MAIL MAX TO GET MORE PAY $7,000,000 More for Salaries Which Railroads Will Be Mulcted. WASHINGTON, Feb. 2. The post- office appropriation bill, which the House committee on postoffices and post roads will complete Monday, will carry $209,180,561. This is the largest amount ever carried for the annual expenditures of the postal service. The total recommended in the bill is more than $3,000,000 in excess of the amount estimated for by the department and is an Increase of $17,509,562 over the current appropriation. The salaries of postal clerks -of both city and rural carriers are Increased to a total of $7,000,000. Provision is Inserted In the bill for the classifica tion of postal clerks and the positions of clerks and carriers' are made in terchangeable. There are various provisions in the bill intended to reduce the pay to rail roads for carrying the malls. It is estimated that this reduction will amount to something like $12,000,000 a year. The rate for hauling dally from EOOO to 48,000 pounds is reduced 5 per cent, from 48,000 to 80,000 pounds 10 per cent and the present rate of $21.37 per ton for amounts above 80, 000 pounds Is reduced to $19. These reductions, it Is estimated, will amount to $3,000,000 a year. A saving of $1,000,000 more is es mated as a result of reductions railroad postoffice pay. The bill cu utjs off all pay to roads for hauling emptl mall sacks, which it is estimated will) save between $3,000,000 and $4,000,000 a year. The requirement that the mails shall be weighed seven days a week and the amount divided by seven Instead of by six, as heretofore, a pro vision placed in the. bill today at the suggestion of Representative Murdock, of Kansas, will, it is estimated, save $5,000,u. PRIVATE BUILDING CHEAPEST Connecticut Costs $359,429 More Than the Louisiana. WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.-Secretary Met calf today issued a statement showing In detail the exact cost of construction of the sister battleships Connecticut and Louisiana, the former built by the Gov ernment at the New York Navy Yard and the latter by the Newport News Shipbuilding Company. From this It ap pears that the . Government-built ship cost $359,429 more than the private-built ship. The exact figures were (Including armor, turret mounts and machinery): For the Connecticut, $6,340,247, and for the Louisiana, $5,980,822. Costly Blunder in Arithmetic. , WASHINGTON, Feb. 2. The House committee on postoffices and post roads today incorporated a provision in the postoffice appropriation bill which It is said will save the Government $3, 000.000 a year paid to railways for hauling mall matter. The action was taken after an explanation by Repre sentative Murdock of Kansas, who said the department was using a false "di visor," in that it weighed mall for seven days and divided the amount by six to ascertain the amount on which to base the compensation of the road. The provision agreed on requires that weighing shall be done for seven days and the amount divided by seven. Ambassador Riddle at His Post. ST. PETERSBURG. Feb. 2. John W. Riddle, former American Minister at Bucharest, who succeeds George von L. Meyer as American Ambassador here, ar rived this morning, and was met at the station by the staff of the Embassy and conducted to the Hotel de France, where he has taken rooms until he is able to secure permanent quarters. Montgomery Schuyler, Jr., first secre tary of the Legation at Bucharest, who has been appointed secretary of the Em bassy here, will remain at Bucharest un til the new Minister. Horace G. Knowles recently appointed Minister to Roumania and Servla, arrives there in April. Cuts Down Amount for Imperial. WASHINGTON, Feb. 1 The House com mlttee on public lands today authorized a iavorabie report upon the Senate bill which carries $2,000,000 to confine the Colo rado River to Its banks. The committee amended the bill by reducing the amount appropriated to $1,000,000. It also struck out a provision which au thorlzed the Reclamation Service to Inaugurate the Imperial Valley recla matlon project. As reported, the bill simply authorizes the strengthening of the levees of the Colorado River. Will Support Nov Alcohol Bill. WASHINGTON. Feb. 2. The President today Informed Representatives Hill and Marshall that he would use his influence to secure an early vote upon the bill pro viding for the changes in the denatured alcohol law which are being demanded by the farmers. The present law Is regarded by many to be theoretically all right, but it is held that. Its practical operation bars farmers from enjoying any benefits be cause of the large expense required iu starting business. Tuft's Trip to Panama, and Manila. WASHINGTON, Feb. 2. Plans for Sec retary Taft's visit to Panama in March have not been definitely formulated as jet, but be will probably go late in the month, and will be accompanied by sev eral Army engineers. The Secretary's visit to the Philippines this Fall probably will be made in August or September. He Is going for the pur pose of being present at the opening of the Philippine Assembly, and will be ac companied by Mrs. Taft, but will not have a large party with him. Agrees on Jamestown Loan Bill. WASHINGTON. Feb. 2. The House committee on appropriations today agreed to a modification of the Senate provision on the- urgent deficiency ap propriation bill regarding the financ ing of the Jamestown Exposition. The House provision reported today au thorizes a Government loan of $800,000 to the Jamestown Exposition, the Gov ernment to take a lien on the real es tate and other property of the com pany as security. Mr. Tawney gave notice that he would call the measure up Monday. May Send Supplies in Foreign Ships. WASHINGTON, Feb. 2. The Quartermaster-General Is confronted with a sit uation which probably will compel au thority to be given for the transportation of supplies to the Philippines in foreign bottoms. Every effort has been made to induce American owners to submit bids, but the only proposal received was from the steamship China, which would not. It Is said, make more than a couple of trips a year. If It appears impossible to conform with the rule that requires ship ment of Government supplies in American bottoms, it will be necessary to make ar- i rangements with owners of foreign ships.

JAPAN NOT BELLIGERENT London Ridicules War Talk Britain Cannot Be Involved LONDON, Feb. 2. Dispatches from the United States, reporting renewed tension between the United States and Japan over the San Francisco school incident, are nublished with rather derisive com ment, as the press takes the view that Japan is not as belligerent as she is rep resented to be. The official view, while It does not nlnimlze the delicate points Involved, still does not regard the ques tion as having entered upon the critical stage. It is pointed out that the reports of a Japanese "ultimatum" probably arise from the popular use of the word instead of its decisive meaning under in ternational law. Government circles thus far have given little consideration to this controversy as they do not share the view that it Is likely to embroil Great Britain under the Anglo-Japanese treaty. Officials point out that the whole thing la more a ques tion between the Federal and state gov ernments than between Japan and the United States. During a recent informal exchange of views one of ' the chief gov ernment officials said that the difficul ties of the Federal Government in deal ing with the different states could be ap preciated here owing to Great Britain's difficulties in dealing with Newfoundland and other colonies. Concerning the Anglo-Japanese treaty for mutual support, the official view Is that this Is limited by its preamble to the maintenance of territorial rights of Great Britain and Japan In Eastern Asia and India. In explaining the limitation, the official referred to above related the following: "During the negotiation of the treaty, the negotiaitions asked the hypothetical question: If Japan became" involved with Germany upon a question local to Ger many and involving the situation in the Far East, would the treaty require Great Britain to support Japan?" Both the negotiators agreed that Great Britain would not be required to support Japan under such conditions. The offi cials pointed out that this hypothesis was practically the same as the existing San Francisco controversy, which is local to California, and which does not Involve the status in the Far East, as Is set forth In the preamble of the treaty. The foregoing, however, is merely an expression of views. There never has been occasion for an official ruling on the subject. A MEDICAL DISCOVERY. SAN FRANCISCO. Cal..
