President Wil- On bell eves "assisted immigration'1 ought to he forbidden. That was as far as ho was rady to go today in dis cussing the problem. The' president told callers that he had not considered the literary test In pending Immigration legislation, and would form no opinion on the matter Until lie had had an opportunity to consult with party leaders in congress. The White House was deluged .with callers, who brought petitions oppos ing the test. The president has de cided, however, to take no stnnd until he lias fully, investigated every phase of the problem. President Wilson admitted today that lie was surprised at the apparent lack of interest n the antitrust hear ings. He thought it indicated that business is atlsfled with the trust program, ho outlined in his recent ad dress to congress. The president scouted suggestions that the coun try's leading business men were afraid to come to Washington to testify be cause tliey would be charged with lob bying. ,f The president also let it be known ( that the United States Is negotiating with 11; nations interested In Secretary Bryan's! arbitration proposal. Both the president and Bryan hoped treaties Will result from these negotiations. Think Hill Will Pass. Washington, Feb. 2. i-Other business was sidetracked in the house today during consideration of the Burnett- Dillingham immigration bill. Repre (tentative Burnett predicted that the' bill would pass, with the literacy .test Included, by a 2 to 1 vote. t California representatives again threatened to Inject the "yellow peril" Into today's debate. It was expected that Representatives Hayes and Curry would submit amendments excluding Asiatic laborers. Recommendations making 'the bill more drastic in regard to white slavers were sent to the house by Secretary of Ibor "Wilson. He orouosed the ex elusion of procurers and lmraoraf women. Secretary Wilson said he was not opposed to the literacy test. He urged the exclusion-of skilled as well as unskilled contract laborers, and requested that the labor department he. authorized to deport persons who have committed crimes involving mor al turpitude, even if not convicted. He also asked permission to exclude all aliens committing crimes here. " Immigration last year, "Wilson said had Increased the population of this country 1.017,000, against 646,742 the previous year. NEW TRIAL DENIED IN CONWAY AND RICHET LAND FRAUD CASES i - Claim That Jury Was Preju diced Fails' to Influence : Federal Judge, ' t'nlited States District Judge Bean this morning refused to grant a new trial to Frank Richet and J. T. Conway,- convicted In tils court early in1 December, of misusing the malls in the exploitation of mountainous lands of eastern and central Oregon. The motion for a new hearing was made by Attorneys Fulton and Bowerman . for the defendants on the ground that articles published in The Journal dur- Ing the progress of the case had preju diced people of the city against the de fendants and created n trtmosphere that denied the possibility of Conway and KIchet receiving a fair hearing. Judge Bean's comment was short. "I must say that the publication of the articles," he declared, "at least, was unfortunate, .coming- as it did dur ing, the pendency of an important criminal trial. The motion for a new trial, however, will be overruled be -cause the record shows that none of ' the Jurors read the articles." On motion of United States Attorney Clarence L. Reames, Judge Bean said he would sentence Conway and Richet next Monday.

WOMAN ACCUSES HIM , i - OF GUNNING FOR VOTE "I Cannot Consult My Per sonal Inclinations;" He Tells Interrogators. fl'iilted Prpsa Jasivi Wire.) Washington, Feb. 2. President Wil son was called upon today definitely to declare his position in regard to woman suffrage. He did so. His hand was forced- by a delegation of suffragists 400 strong, who wanted to know just where he stood on the suf frage question, and they found out. As leader of the Democratic party." the president told the delegation, "I cannot advocate any legislation which h not approved by the Democratic na tional committee." The women begged and implored. but the president. although deenfv touched by their picas, stuck to his position. , Six Women Make Speeches. The reception of the suffraerists was picturesque. The women had marched n a body to the White House, where i committee of 25. headed bv Mrs Lrienaover Evans, president of the Massachusetts Trades Women's league. entered the executive offices.

(Washington Bureau of , The Jonrnal.) Washington. Feb. 2.-i-The interstate commerce commission (has suspended until August 28. rates! on lumber on the line of the O.-W. R. & N. Co. via Plummer and the C, M. & St. P. to points reached by the latter road. This is the famous Pjummer gateway case. " t ' , The ruling of Vhe interstate com merce commission in suspending the rates over the O.-W. R. & N. company for lumber through the Plummer gate way, was the resuljt bt a hearing held recently In Portland when complain ants declared an Arbitrary ruling to the effect that all lumber routed from points on tbs Union Pacific lipes should be carried 'the entire distance on Union Pacific tracks. At this hear ing it was admitted by officials of the railway company that it was their in tention to corner all the trade, where it was possible to do so, to the exclu sion of other roads, although it was agreed that the Plummer gateway would be left open where the effect of the closing would be to Increase the rates to certain points, but declared they intended to keep it closed if the rates were the same. The argument against the order was that it was not conduslve to good ser vice to have but one company handle shipments. The complainants heard at Portland were lumber shippers of Baker and eastern Oregon, WILON'ANWR PLUMMER Inconsistency of Woman Is Ever Perplexing tr n m e n e e e i She Battles For Suffrage, ' Then Won't Register Sine the stone age woman has ever been "the eternal feminine," and reams and reams of manuscript have been ex pended in trying to explain her va garies, and sundry humorists have m2nufactire4 thousands of jokes about the time-honored prerogative of chang ing her mind.

REDUCTIONS IN FREIGHT GRANTED BY ROADS Requests of the Portland Chamber of Commerce Included in the Concessions Announced. Changes in transcontinental tariffs. Just issued and effective at once, con tain several reductions asked for by the transportation committee of the Portland Chamber of Commerce. The most notable one Is the restoration of the 75 cent rate, on fruit jars and glasses from southern Oklahoma, for which a 6pecialorder of the Interstate commerce commission allowfed emerr gency action, by the freight, bureau. The tariff applying to furniture and chair shipments is amended to include chair backs, perforated or unperforat- ed, at the instance of the Portland committee. Amendments to the para graph on road machinery now allow almost every form of highway appli ances to be included in that general rate. John H. Lothrop, manager of the committee, has called special attention of shippers to the revised rule on the rating of articles according to differ ent classes of packages. The new rule provides a penalty of 25 per cent when goods, marked as first class pack ages, are enclosed In second class packages and a penalty of 5J) per cent if third class packages are used. Reduced rates are noted on wire fly killers and hand tool grinders and asphalt shingles are added to the roof fug material group in the tariff. Bill for Alaska Commission. Washington, Feb. 2. The second step in the proposed legislation to open the resources of Alaska was taken today by Senator Chamberlain who introduced in the senate a bill for therreation of a commission of three members to have entire charge in administering the resources of the territory. franchise with all the enthusiasm of a child getting a new toy is lethargic to an extreme. Up to and Including Saturday, 10,813 men of Portland had registered, as against 3100 women. The population of this city in 1910, according to the census, was 207,214 div'ided Into 11S, 868 males and 88,346 females. ; This would Indicate; that 42.5 per cent of Portland's population is female. Regis tration figures to date, however, indi cate that only about 26 per cent of tuose registered thus far are women. showing a discrepancy in what should be a 'constantly flowing stream of j registrants of about 16 per cent .Political prognosticators predict that the women of the state will play but a small part in the forthcoming elec tion unless they evince a greater In terest in the right for which thf y clamored so strenuously a short time back. It was expected that the women of the state, and especially of Portland, would be afire with eagerness to par ticipate in, their first gubernatorial election and would make all due-haste to insure their right to vote by an early registration. Such, however, as the figures show, is apparently not the r-ase, and the present apathy is considered well nish inexplicable. LITTLE BOYS SHOULD OF F BY BANKER LECONTE Paris Financier Said to Have Got Away With Millions Books Doctored Cleverly, -(t'nited Press Teased Wire.) Paris, Feb. . 2. When France has a financial scandal it usually is a big one, and it seemed likely today that the case .of Fernand Emil Leconte, the banker arrested Saturday on charges of swindling, would be fully up to the average proportions. It was said at the time of his arrest that Leconte's liabilities would run to about $400,000, but further investiga tion Indicated that they probably would amount to millions. The bank er's books were, so cleverly handled that even experts could not . determine how they had been manipulated and it was said today that unless Leconte could be Induced to unravel the snarl, it probably wouldl not b known what figure his illegitimate profits had reached until the! victims' w-era 'all heard from. Leconte specialized on bishops and archbishops. At least 20 of them con tributed to his schemes. The- authori ties were of the opinion that their in vestments would prove almost total losses. The banker, got his money through "blue sky" companies.

Manager Robert Newton Lynch of the San Fran cisco Chamber of Commerce today laid before Secretaries McAdoo and Hous ton of the federal treasury and agri cultural departments his city's rea sons for claiming a regional reserve bank under the new currency law. It is equidistant," he said, "from British Cblurobla and Mexico. Because of its ideal location It dominates the whole intervening ' territory with its 5,000,000 population. "Of this population California has one-half and the bay cities have more than one-fifth." Then the San Francisco spokesman produced statistics in support of his contention. Its export trade for 1913, he said, was $101,000,000 against Puget sound's $62,000,000. Practically every coastwise steamship, too, he asserted, -was operated from the Golden Gate. As another Illustration of the Im portance accorded to the California me; tropolis. Lynch called attention to the fact that it Is one of the three cities in the United States where fire lnsur ance business is handled by brokers instead of agents. . In 1913, he' said. 98 per cent of the fire insurance pre miums for, the. Pacific coast were cleared through San Francisco.

"We have no opinion to express,1 said Secretary Houston, "and will come to no decision until we have heard from all the cities on the coast." Reno, Ogden Salt Lake City, Boise, Sacramento and Fresno Indorsed San Francisco's plea by resolution and rep resentatlon. Attorney George McClellan, repre senting Seattle, wanted to answer San Francisco's claims. but was refused a hearing. Secretary Houston saying there would be no arguments at pres ent. Kx-State Bank Superintendent Alden Anderson testified that unless the federal reserve board ruled that banks in the new association might accept savings accounts a number of Cali fornia state banks would remain out side of it. Among local' bankers much Interest was expressed in the announcemen which accompanied the visitors' ar rival that Assistant Secretary of the Treasury John S. Williams would take the post of comptroller of the currency beginning today and that Charles S, Hamlin, who has been In charge of the customs, would succeed Williams in charge of the fiscal bureau, acting.
