OPPOSED TO COMPROMISE
Schmltz Will Go to Washington With

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,"

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.

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.

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.

Charcoal Stops Gas
on Your Stomach
Wonderful Absorbing Power of Char
coal When Taken in the Form of
Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges.
Trial Package Sent Free.
Charcoal, pure, simple charcoal, absorbs
100 times its own volume of gas. Where
does the gas go to? It is Just absorbed
by the charcoal the gas disappears and
there is left a pure, fresh, sweet atmos
phere, free from all Impurities and germs.
That's what happens in your stomach
when you take one or two of Stuart's
Charcoal Lozenges, the most powerful
purifiers science has yet discovered.
You belch gas in company, sometimes,
by accident, greatly to your own humilia
tion. That Is because there is a great
amount of gas being formed in your
stomach by fermenting food. Your stom
ach Is not digesting your food properly.
Gas is Inevitable. Whenever this hap
pens, just take one or two of Stuart's
Charcoal Lozenges right after eating, and
you will be surprised how quickly they
will act No more belchlngs; no more
sour risings. Eat all you want and what
you want, and then if there Is any gas
going: to be formed, one of these wonder
ful little absorbers, a Stuart Charcoal
Lozenge, will take care of all the gas.
And it will do more than that. Every
particle of Impurity in your stomach and
intestines Is going to be carried away
by the charcoal. No one seems to know
why it does this, but it does, and does
it wonderfully. You notice the difference
in your appetite, general good feeling,
and in the purity of your blood right
away.
You'll have no more bad taste In your
mouth or bad breath, either from drink
ing, eating or smoking. Other people will
notice your bad breath quicker than you
will yourself. Make your breath pure,
fresh and sweet, so when you talk to
others you won't disgust them. Just one
or two Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges will
make your breath sweet, and make you
feel better all over for It. You can eat
all the onions and odorous foods you
want, and no one can tell the difference.
Besides, charcoal Is the best laxative
known. You can take a whole boxful
and no harm will result. It is a wonder
ful easy regulator.
And then, too, It filters your blood
every particle of poison or impurity In
your blood is destroyed and you begin
to notice the difference In your face first
thing your clear complexion.
Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges are made
from pure willow charcoal, and just a

Hurry!
We've broken a record had the greatest six
days' business ever handled by any Portland
tailoring establishment that was the result of
our extraordinary special $22.50 offer in last
Sunday's papers and that's "going1 some"!
But it simply proves that what we advertised
was what we said it was. We'll continue the
sale this week if the goods hold out that long.
If you missed the previous announcement,
Here's the Offer
Once More
Choice 'of all this season's tweeds, cassimeres
and cheviots, weights that are seasonable for
all year 'round wear (perhaps excepting a few
of the "is this hot enough for you" days),
strictly all wool, splendid wearing, handsome
materials, in a wide range of stylish patterns
goods that have sold all through the Winter up
to $30 the same exclusive novelties that the
fancy-price tailor shops ask all of $35 to $50
for and now think twice, while you read this :
Made to your measure in the finest suits we
know how to turn out, including an extra pair
of trousers, absolutely free, at the radical re
duction of
t
Twenty -Two
Dollars and Fifty
Cents
Did you ever! No, we think not; it's the best
.tailoring proposition this town ever knew. So
good that several men ordered two and three
suits apiece last week. And just think you
can have your suit made up in one of the new
Spring styles, which the advance fashion sheets
already show.
Now, don't wait too long; some of the bolts
will quite likely run pretty close to the "short
end" within a few days. Take five minutes
tomorrow to look this up you'll profit at the
rate of three or four dollars a minute. Can you
make money or save money faster than that?
