The evidence upon which Pratt played in making his arguments was al have been a telegram from Senator Wheeler to Gordon Campbell, im which it stated the senator had| fust appeared before the department af intertor with reference to oll mat. ters. A letter along similar lines was also said to have been considered. This evidence was said to be the key to the indictment of Senator Wheeler on the specific charges of accepting fees in connection with the determination of the validity and priority of six ol] and gas permits. One of these permits mentioned was in controversy between Gordon Campbell, indicted for using the mails to defraud, and D. L. Thompson, © said to be Harry M. Daugherty's cousin. The controversy was settled by splitting the section in question, each contestant taking half. Permits for the entire section were first granted to Philip S. MacGowan, associate of Campbell, who gave Campbell the drilling contract Ifebruary 9, 3932, and a permit covering the game section was asigned to Thomyson several months later, Oc: tober 11, 192 ‘Thompson spent considerable time ta Washington obtaining a settle ment of the dispute, Campbell de-| clared.

DEMOS OPPOSE JAP BILL Would Rebuke Republicans; Hughes Joins Aliens WASHINGTON, April 14.—South- ern democrates may save the admin- istration from an embarrassing diplo matic situation by preventing senate approval of the Japanese exclusion feature written Into the Immigration bill by the house. The hostility of the democrats springs admittedly from a desire to rebuke republican supporters of the antilynching bill and of negro po- litical appointees than a desire to help the administration out of a hole. Secretary Hughes has joined Am- | bassador Hanihara tn a vigorous prov test against the exclusion feature, which ‘would abrogate the "“gentie- men’s agreement” with Japan, and pressure will be brought to bear on republicans to uphold the adminis- tration. If the senate adopts the exclusion provision it is certain to stay in the law because of the strong sentiment for it in the house. And If the sen- ate rejects it, the members of the house Immigration committee, who} wiil be conferees on the bill, threaten to kill immigration legislation for the session. There were indications the administration would prefer to see immigration legislation sidetracked rather than face a serious diplomatic discussion with Japan, such as the vigorous protest of Ambassador Hani- |hara against the provision indicated would occur, in the event of adoption. Senator Johnson, California, and other Pacific const senators are | thoroly aroused by the Japanese pro- |test and intend to redouble their ef- forte to force the adoption of the exclusion feature, Failure of immigration legislation at this session would necessitate the adoption of a joint resolution to ex- tend the present Jaty, which expires on June 30 Yoo-Hoo, Skinnay, No School Today! ‘The spring vacation for Seattle and King county schools opened Monday, releasing thousands of have the entire income from the entate left by her former husband. which Is now divided between the two women W.
