JORDAN EXPLAINS PRESIDENT WAS IN BAD TEMPER
SAYS JAPANESE MESSAGE
WAS ILL CONSIDERED
University Man Lets Slip
a Reflection on His
Good Friend
FAVORS EXCLUSION
Answers Walter Macarthur
by Declaring Roosevelt
Was Very Angry
I am of the opinion that the j
much attacked message to Con- j
gress regarding the Japanese was j
written by President Roosevelt!
when he was in somewhat of a
temper. He had just returned
from a long, tiresome trip to Pan
ama; he was fighting with sev
eral Senators, and the uncom- 1
promising attitude of the Califor
nians irritated him.
I am a hearty believer in exclu
sion, but I think that the arrange
ments could be best made be
tween Tokio and Washington.
We should deal with the Japanese
as gentlemen, with as much re
gard for them as they have for
us. They consider the United
States the greatest nation on
earth: Great Britain they place
second in power, Germany third,
and they rank themselves with
France as the fourth power. —
Excerpt from address by Presi
dent Jordan at Stanford Uni
versity.
.Though greatly admiring- Thpodore
rioosevplt ;n:d scarcely ever failing to
rush to thp support of his governmen
tal policies. President David Starr Jor
dan of Stanford University admits that
the President of the United States is
not* always the calm, dignified, pon
derous statesman that he ought to be.
In an impromptu debate with Walter
Maoarthur, editor of the Coast Sea
man's Journal, at Palo Alto Thursday
evening, Jordan let the words slip that
the President of the United States is
the kind of a man \u25a0who HI controls his
temper and "gets hot in the collar"
even when it cornea to dealing with
such a serious matter as the Japanese
question.
The soft impeachment of the man In
the White House came about when
President Jordan arose to answer some
of the views that Editor Macarthur
had expressed before the Stanford So"
clal Service. Club regarding the Jap
anese and the labor problems.
The well-known labor leader had
»-poken but; a few' minutes when he
launched forth on the Oriental situa
tion. The meeting was largely at
tended by students and members of
the faculty.
Macarthur did not mince words- In
describing the gravity of the ex
clusion question, nor did he spare
President Roosevelt for precipitating
the present crisis. He spoke, as 'fol
lows in part:
TLls Is no question for statesmen to decide.
Rather, 1t ig one for the races. The standard
of the San Franclsro schools Is not the Issue
before us. but whether or not the Japanese or
whites 6hall prevail In California » whether twen
ty years hence this fair State will be a depend
ency of Japan, as Hawaii is oow. Is what is be
fore us. California must be a white man's
State, &nd we don't care what measures are
nwpKstry to maintain It so.
If we can't preserve it in peace, then trot out
your war. Statesmen may wield the bl* stick
end send- messages to Congress, but that will not
determine the question. The dominance of the
white race is threatened on the coast under
present conditions, and the yellow man will be
for^wi out by arms if necessary.
Now. as for President Roosevelt, he would
Cive hs compromise when exclusion only Is the
remedy. lie is In a large measure responsible
for this critical situation. The Japanese and
Korean Ex<"lusion Leagrue was proceeding with
its work in a calm and dispassionate matter
when he Ktibmitted his message to Conirress.
Then we were Dot so calm. The President had
switched us off the track of moderation.
We nf the laboring class have no objection to
the Japanese pentleman. He doesn't compete
with us, and if the competition were between
the Japanese and American gentleman, I would
do what the American pentleman Is doing now:
1 would run out and yell, "Stop that agitation.
Do<ij-ou want to bring on war?"
Tt was under the form of seconding
a vote of thanks to Macarthur for
appearing before the club that Presi
dent Jordan took occasion to present
his views. That he did not wholly
agree with the tenor of the Presi
dent's message in its reference to the
San Francisco situation Dr. Jordan ad
mitted, but he declared that it was his
opinion that haste had been shown on
the other side as well. The remarks
of Prepident Jordan were as follows:
I am of the cpinion that the much-attacked
message to Congress regarding the Japanese was
written by President Roosevelt when he was in
somewhat of a temper. He had Just returned
from a long, tiresome trip to Panama; he was
fighting with several Senators, and the nncotn
protnising attitude of the Cslifornlans Irritated
him.
I am s hearty believer In exclusion, but I
think that the arrangements rould be best made
between Tokio and Washington. We should deal
with the Japanese as gentlemen, with as much
regard- for them as they have for us. They con
eider the United States the greatest nation on
earth. Great Britain tliey place second in power,
Germany third, and they rank themselves with
France es the fourth power.
I believe now — in fact, I know — that s«me
treaty will be negotiated wberehy Japanese will
be prevented from coming to the United States
by way of Hawaii. I have it authoritatively
that Japan has been willing for some time to
make sueb a treaty, and that even at the time
that the San Francisco school question enfor
tuntely arose negotiations with 6uch an end in
view were beta* carried on.

'schools.
SCH.HITZ CAPITULATES
The Mayor and School Board went to
the White House this afternoon and
met the President and Secretary Root.
The President told his visitors that he
was bound to secure the passage of
the Immigration! bill with the Japanese
amendment. Senator Lodge had in
formed the President that Tillman and
Bacon threatened to filibuster because
they objected to the provision in the
bill prohibiting the importation of con
tract labor by immigration agents em
ployed by an association. The Presi
dent told the Californians that they
need not fear the failure of the Ha
waiian exclusion programme. ' He said
that he. would call an extra session of
Congress if the bill 'should be killed.
Schmitz and the School Board there
upon agreed to surrender on the, school
Question. They 'reached an ' -under
standing with the President. that noth
ing should be said about the surrender
until Qongress had passed the bill.
They admitted that the coast might
condemn them for surrendering unless
they could show that exclusion was an
accomplished fact. In order to avoid
a possible outbreak on the coast,
Schmitz and the board are trying to
keep their surrender a secret.
AMENDMENT IX DANGER
The Senate got busy on immigration
matters soon after the meeting. Bacon
and Tillman privately told the Repub
licans that the bill would be talked to
death unless the provision regarding
contract labor was cut out. They ar
gued that their constituencies were
trying to secure white immigration
through the employment of immigra
tion agents, supported in part by the
States and partly by contributions from
employers of labor. They denied that
such immigrants were under contract.
There was every evidence of a fili
buster up to the time that the Presi
dent and Senator Aldrlch acted. The
President Is understood to have tele
phoned to Senator Lodge early in the
afternoon that he would call an extra
session if necessary to pass the bill.
Lodge passed this ultimatum around.
It did not seem' to have any effect on
the Southerners.
But Senator Aldrich heard of It In'
New Torkl He has engaged his pas
sage to Europe Immediately after Con
gress adjourns. He was very much ex
cited over the idea of an extra session.
Several Senators say tonight that Aid
rich called up Senator Crane of Massa
chusetts about 4 o'clock and told him
to Warn Tillman and Bacon that the
river and harbor bill was behind the
immigration bill and that unless the
immigration bill was allowed to come
to a vote by tomorrow night the South
Carolina and Georgia items would be
cut out.
TILLMAN COMES DOWN
Within an hour the word iajas passed
around that there would be no objec
tion to a vote tomorrow. Tillman
talked an hour longer, but the ugliness
of his attitude was gone.
Then, as the result of another long
distance conversation, two Republican
Senators gave signs of eruption. They
are known to be influenced by the
trans-Atlantic steamship companies,
which do not want Immigration
stopped. They began to find serious
Imperfections in the bill. But their
attitude is well known to the other
Senators and it will not delay the pas
sage of the bill. Several Democratic
Senators do not agree with Tillman and
Bacon and will vote for the bill.
President Walsh and Director Boyle
of the School Board left tonight for
New York. They will inspect the school
systems of several Eastern cities In or
der to obtain pointers for the new San
Francisco schools. Mayor Schmitz will
be tendered a reception' Monda y-night
by the Central Labor Union -of Wash
ington, which will be attended by Sam
uel Gompers and other leaders. Schmitz
is expected to make a speech on the
"Japanese- situation." By. that -time it
is expected that the whole thing will
be settled.
MAYOR WAS A NONENTITY
Members of the California delegation
are glad now that they were not called
In to participate In the conferences' be
tween the President and Schmitz. They
have not been consulted by Schmitz and
cannot be blamed if . the admission of
Japanese children' ln the schools proves
unpopular. They : have . supported
exclusion amendment,' of course, and do
not give , Schmitz or the ; School Board
any credit for that ' part -of the out
come. They say that the
scheme was originated before Schmitz
arrived here, and that he: did not influ
ence It one way, or the other. ,;

Japanese Controversy Stirs
Southern Senator to
Belligerency
WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.— The agree
ment to vote tomorrow on the confer
ence report on the immigration bill
was preceded by an entire day of dis
cussion upon that measure.
The principal speakers were Senators
Bacon and Tillman in opposition- to
what? they .regarded , asi an; ./effort t-.! to
prevent the South from getting a desir
able class of immigrants, ; Senator Till
man's remarks on the : Japanese ; situa
tion brought a warning", from;' Senator
Lodge that if continued he. should move
that the discussion' proceed behind
closed doors. International references
were \u25a0. not made afterward by Senator
Tillman. \u0084 . •
Senator Galllnger expressed surprise
that the conferees should contend tKat
they had .not Injected "new" matter
into the conference' report, and Senator
Carter said he should vote against the
report entirely on that ground and pre
dicted its defeat.
Mr. Bacon said that under 'the ruling
of the Department of Commerce and
Labor, the contract labor clause of the
immigration laws has been so con
strued as to permit the State Immigra
tion Commission of South Carolina to
receive contributions of funds from
private individuals and use the money
to encourage and assist immigration.
All that was asked, he said, was that
the law, be allowed to remain as It now
is. The conference report would pre
vent any action by a State. In reply
ing to Mr. Bacon's speech Mr. Lodge
said there had not been the ' slightest
intention on the part of the conferees
to modify in any way the clause which
gives power to a State to take steps to
induce Immigration. If those clauses
which limit contract labor have . been
strengthened it was without any ref
erence to the States, he said.
j Senator Galllnger expresged sym
pathy for the situation in the South
and sustained Mr. Bacon's contention
that the situation was one of embar
rassment, as he should feel compelled
to vote for the report because of the
Pacific Coast provision. .

SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL
BERKELEY; Feb. 15.— Amateur and
professional ; philosophers, with a
sprinkling of Berkeley clergymen and a
hos^of curious folk, crowded the quar
ters ; of the \ Philosophical Union of the
State University- tonight to hear Pro
fessor = George ", P. Howison of the Uni

'A Shocks aplenty came , to! portions' of
Professor ' Howison's i audience as he
thoughtfully, Jln , the ? course of a two
hours' discourse, disposed of the devil
as a myth,, hell as a legend,' defined
Christians- with a new definition, gave
Christian Science a rap, Buddhism sever
al raps, and the theory of "human pre
existence the hardest rap of all." s' .
"I shall speak with no particular em
phasis, upon human pre-exlstence," he
said, "but rather of the immortality of
the soul, our general subject for this
course of addresses, and what I say of
human pre-exlstence will be a denial of
the theory. Human pre-existence is of
kin to dealing in spooks, to curious ex
peditions Into: the world of the myth
ical. It suggests Christian Science
vagaries and is a doctrine impossible of
approval by sober men. As philos
ophers we. should stand for sober
thought. The thought of human pre
existence is twaddle, useless theorizing,
because our lives are not influenced in
the slightest by the theory that we
have lived in another form, in another
world, at another time than this." .
"Buddhism with its doctrine' of trans
migration of souls and its conception of
perfection as a state where man^de
scends to nothing In his own sight,
was criticised' by .Professor Howison.
He declared that Christ is the one
great teacher of truth, because, in con
trast with Buddhism, he tells men they
are to be like. God, perfect, free, im
mortal. Tlie belief in human pre-ex
istence involved'' tn% Buddhism has no
counterpart in Christian doctrine," said
Howison. "
"The soul," said Howison, "Is of such
character so much a part of the great
first cause, thatmothlng can harm it
nothing but sin. £JS Sin, like 'acid, can
partially dissolve . it, but it cannot be
absolutely annihilated, even: by, sin, be
cause no soul ever reached a stage at
which the soul- could not conceive of
some wickedness so: horrible that even
the: depraved soul would revolt at it.
"That is why the wisest thought has
led us to reject the idea of a devil who
is all evil, who cries 'evil, be thou'my
good.' An absolutely bad being is in
conceivable. . Don't read the : Epistles;
don't look for this truth m even the
Gospel of St. John, but in the other
three gospels,, which criticism has left
comparatively- unscathed; - get Christ's
own truth, concerning the soul."' V

"The almost Insurmountable difficulty

read and discussed as this, is enough
to make either side hesitate a long

this answer, to a question as to the
possibility of the Stated seeking to
show Thaw, insane, now. . i
In'outliningthe plans of the defense
with the resumption of the proceedings
on Monday Henry; C. McPike of counsel
I for the defense referred to the present
status of the case as follows:
• "As it stands, we have Jerome beaten.
If his^contention that we could not in
trodueV statements made by Harry
Thaw to the experts had been allowed
to ; stand it would have been the worst
error that either I or Delmas ever heard
of. We would not have cared a snap
for a conviction if that had been the
; final ruling, because it would not hold.
j Delmas comes out of the Far West to
I New York and teaches the District At
torney the law of his own State."
# DEI ' MAS PRAISES JEROME
• When The Call's correspondent asked
Delmas for his own opinion in the mat
ter, senior counsel for Thaw expressed
regret that his' associate had in any
way reflected on Jerome's knowledge of
the laws of New York. He said:
"I. have the highest regard for the
District Attorney's very great intimacy
with, the law. •In his acceptance of
the admission of Dr. Evans' testimony
concerning Thaw's oral statements,
Jerome, evidenced; to me his knowledge
that such testimony was entirely rele
vant. Had he objected to the admis
sion of. this evidence I should notvnec
essarlly concluded . that his objection
was based on ignorance. But he real
ized as well as I. did when I put the
question to Dr. Evans that the court
could never sustain an objection of
such a nature and hence his silence."
After Dr. Evans has finished his tes-.
tlmony on Monday the defense expects
to pnt.Dr. Charles G. Wagner on the
stand again to- testify to certain In
cidents in connection with his examina
tion Thaw, which he omitted when
he was first called. Following the ex
perts, Evelyn Nesbit Thaw will be re
called to finish her testimony. • With
this before the jury In its complete
form and the admission In evidence of
the will and letters written by Thaw
the defense believes that it will rest.

a free man. He was accompanied by
Attorney John E. Richards, his wife
and hi 3 little daughter. At the corner
of the courthouse he was accosted by
two deputy sheriffs, but Judge Welch
had made it very plain -in his talk
during the morning session that the
court .would deal summarily with of
fender's against the rights of individ
uals involved in the case. He as much
as said, that some one would suffer for
any further attempt on the part of
contestants— if such they might be.

mon principles of justice.
. When Alva was alone with the antl-
Rae' forces he made a so-called confes
sion, in which he said that an offer had
been made him to cancel a $1600 mort
gage if he would acknowledge that he
had received $2 to vote the Republican
ticket. Alva charged that he had been
drugged by the Sheriff's men, and that
he had been tortured into a confession
of so-called election "crimes. In fact,
he said, he did not know anything
about any crimes, and that he was com
pelled to make statements that might
have damaged' him were they brought
before the court. He told a tale of suf
fering while In prison that Is vigorous
ly denied by his custodians. The Hayes
faction nas his affidavit and will use
it In. defense or prosecution, as re
quired.
Rae asserts that he has evidence that
will prove the illegal counting of bal
lots in the recent election. He says
that he is after the "man higher up,"
but he will not say who this man is.
Some San Jose people profess to know.
J. O. Hayes is equally as emphatic In
stating that he knows who is making
the, trouble and that Santa Clara ha*
suffered from the depredations of an or
ganized gang of political highbinders
for years; it has been his purpose to
clear the county of the incubu.-i
"I made this fight for the good of the
people." said Hayes, "and I am not go
ing to give in as long as there is a
moral to battle for. I am going to see
this thing through, not because I wish
to be mixed up in such an unsavory
controversy, but because I' want to see
fair play." - ;
"I am not going- to say much about
intentions," said James Rae, "but you
may rest assured that I am going to
make a fight that the people will hear
from. It will make a sound in other
places in the world than San Jose."
With it all there remained at mid
night the unshaken fact that Santa
Clara has been torn by dissension, which
has engendered political hatred and in
jured . the name 1 of the valley, all be
cause certain men have seen fit to try
to make a joke of law and a huge laugh
over misapplication of its provisions.
