Pittsburg. April 28. That tho

man Duncan .cmuiay of California.
At a banquot gWen yesterday by
tho American club of this city in hon
or of tho blruiday of Ulysos S. Grant,
MelCiulay In an atior-dlnnor speech
declared that the California question
was merely a part of the "yellow

a question for Cnllfornln to settlo but
for the whole nation.
McKlniny gave as his opinion thnt
the tnlk of war between Japan and
tho United States Is nbsurd.
"Should tho Jnpaneso go to war
with us, or. with any othor power,
Russia would bo at her throat In a
mlnuto." ho snld. "Talk of war with
.Tnpan is nbsurd. Tho question of
Jnpnnoso immigration will bo sottlod
amlcnbly In duo time. I am In favor
of Hoosovolfs policy of giving tho

It will be time enough to consider ex
