By Ralph Smith WASHINGTON. Feb. 9—Yesterday’s ex ecutive session of the senate was really devoted to a discussion of President Roosevelt’* Japanese policy and hi* atti tude toward California, although it was ostensibly for th* purpose of considering the Crum caa*. Th* negro waa only an incident. Western Republican* seised the opportu nity to pass severe stricture* upon the president for his interference and south ern Democrat* enjoyed immensely the discussion of the "race problem'’ from a Republican point of view The westerners evidenced a deeper seated hatred for th* Japanese than the people of the south have ever entertained or expressed to ward th* negro. Senator Gary, of South Carolina, made hi* maiden speech in opposition to Crum and incidentally brought up the race question whereupon the western senators jumped into a heated discussion of the Japanese question, for they regard it only as a race problem. . > Senator* Heyburn, of Idaho; Perkin*, of California, and Newland*, of Nevada, a Democrat, declared that the Japanese as citizens ar* Infinitely worse than the ne-r gro and each of them turned their guns on President Roosevelt for the position he has assumed in the matter. FOES OF JAPANESE TO RUSH ALIEN BILL SAN FRANCISCO. Feb. 9.-The San Francisco Chronicle prints this morning a special dispatch from Sacramento, pre dicting the passage of both the anti-Jap aneae measure* now being considered by the California legislature. These two measures aiv the bill providing for the segregation of undesirable aliens in the resident districts of towns and cities and the regulation* providing for schools for the Japanese. Speaker Stanton has been so delayed by washouts that it i* hardly likely that he can get back to Sacramento in time to assert his influence against the bills, and it is possible they will have already been voted on when he arrives. The legislators are said to be aggrieved at Stanton be cause they feel he has been guilty of bluffing. They believed both the speaker and the national administration are play ing for delay, and this feeling is likely to cause the backers of the bills to insist, on their immediate consideration. O. A. Tveitmoe. the president of the Asiatic Exclusion league, has again issued j a stateemtn denying the president’s asser tion that the Japanese are leaving this country in greater numbers than they arc coming to It. He has positive figures to prove that there are now more Japa nese in this country than ever before and that the influx Is increasing. Japs Are Increasing According to hl* statement, a large part of this immigration Is coming across the boarders of Mexico and Canada. The Far Eastern club, composed of Japanese and American sympathiser*, met yesterday to discuss the action of the California legis • lature. Several speeches of protest were ! made, but no formal resolutions were j adopted. ANTWAP LAWS TO CAUSE BITTER FIGHT IN OREGON SALEM. Ore.. Feb. 9.—After a poll was taken of the Oregon legislature last night it developed that while the senate did not favor the anti-Japanese legislation, there were enough members In th* house fa vorable to excluding the subjects of the mikado, to make the topic a live one. At least one-fourth of the house mem bers are anti-Japanese and they will do everything possible to assist In the pass age of the Bailey resolution should It reach the house. In the event of it being killed In the senate by an adverse report, there is a prospect that the resolution will be In troduced In the house in a new form, but covering the same idea. The resolution committee is divided, es pecially as Bailey Is a member and has notified Chairman Kay that he will re sent on the floor any attempt of Kay to report the resoluption unless he has I first had any opportunity to speak in i its behalf. Senator Bailey has collected a mass of j statistics with which he intends discuss ing tbe exclusion question. BINNS GIVEN OVATION BY ENGLISH HOME FOLK PETERBOROUGH. England.

Feb. 10.—While civic and military parades, tours to points of historic interests and receptions and ah to play a prominent part in the entertan; mont of President-elect Taft during h.s two days' stay in New Orleans, it it now very apparent that the 925-a-piaie banquet is to be made the principal feature of the visit. It is planned to bring the list of those subscribing to the banquet up to the 1,000 mark, so cost will not be a deterrent fac tor in the success of the feast, which will take place next Friday night. The very finest fish und game which can be procured within a hundred miles of New Orleans will be used in preparing the dishes, all of which will be cooked 6 la Creole, by the most skillful chefs in the parish of Orleans. / Many imaginary menus have been made up and circulated as the official bill of fare, but the chefs and others are still busy deciding just exactly what will be best to feed to the next president. Some insist upon “Pouet Creole.” young chick ens stuffed with fresh mushrooms, while others declare that teal duck, with a carefully prepared pecan nut butter would be much more appetizing. Many favor crawfish bisque, but others hold out for the old-fashioned creole gumbo. The fish will be either pompano or sheepshead, and it will be cooked in charboid wine. There will be a fruit salad, in which the principal ingredients will be pineapples, bananas, oranges, grapefruit, celery and a rich creole dressing. Biscuit glace, pra liens of coaconut and other sweet things will be served for the last courses. Old cellars have been ransacked and wine of rare vintage unearthed for the occasion. There will be Amatillado. Cha teau Lafitte and many other fine old wines, which, according to the chefs, have been stored away for so many years that rakes will be required to separate them from the cobwebs which have gath ered over the bottles. A feature of the banquet Is to be the serving of the Case Broulot. Several hun dred silver bowls have been secured and the coffee, rich with the aroma of spices and cognac, will be stirred with long silver ladles by darkles chanting old cre ole songs, while the alcohol is burn ing. Cardinal Gibbons, who will pronounce the invocation at the banquet, arrived in New Orleans last night. IS DRAGGED FROM JAIL AND LYNCHED BY MOB HOUSTON.

Ga., Feb. 10.—The jury in the case of Will Robinson, charged with bigamy, late last night returned a ver dict of guilty. The verdict was read this morning at 11 o'clock. Robinsun was brought into court about 11 o'clock and a sentence of four years was imposed upon him by Judge Mitchell. He made no statement but his lawyer. Judge Smith, gave notice of a motion for a new trial. Miss Simms, who has been loyal to him during his trial, was not in court when the sentence was read out. His second wife stood loyally by him, though her father was the prosecutor. It is understood that she will not desert him now, believing in his innocence. The evidence of the trial of Will Rob inson, charged with bigamy, closed Tuesday evening. This morning he made his statement of an hour, in which he stated that he thought his first wife had gotten a divorce or was dead. said that he had tried to locate her several years ago, but could not. - i He said her people knew nothing about her, that she was a dissipated woman. He said that he wanted to get charge of his children but he could never locate them. His sister wrote him several years ago that she was divorced and he heard the same from other sources. He referred to his conduct since his arrest to show his honesty in the matter. He said that he could have escaped several times before coming from Oklahoma but refused to do *o. He said that Elder Simms, the father of his last wife, threatened his life and that his. Elder Simms’ friends, had tried to get him to leave Valdosta, forfeiting his bond, but he told them he would not. He said his wife was true to him and that he would show her that he was true to her. His first wife was sitting close to him during the statement and burst into a laugh when he spoke of his fidelity to "Dora,” his second wife. Robinson said that Mr. Simms’ law yers had to advertise in several New England papers to locate his first wife and when they found her she was in jail under indictment for performing an Illegal operation. He said he loved Dora, and Dora loved him, and that they would live together, it matters not how long it takes to settle the case. Eider Simms at this juncture said, “You will never do it,” in a tone heard all over the court room. Robinson’s statement was regarded as a strong one. Some other minor evidence wa* introduced by the defendant and the lawyers began their argument, Col. Duke leading off for the defense, fol lowed by Col. Denmark for the state, touching the law in the case. Mr. Copeland spoke for the defense in the afternoon and was followed by So licitor Thomas, for the state, and Judge Oscar Smith, for the defense. IN EXPERIENCED’MIN E RS CAUSED BIG EXPLOSION BIRMINGHAM. ALA. F?b. 10—The report of the state mine Inspectors on the recent explosion in the Short Creek mine* in which eighteen men lost their lives, has been made public here. Inexperienced labor miners who prepared and fired a shot caused the explosion "a wlndv shot.” The distance of the heading was ahead ot the air and the manner in which the shots were placed and the quantity of dynamite with which they were charged in going off generat ed large Quantities of carbon monoxide gas, which was ignited bv the flame from the shor, which also produced sufficient wind to cause the fine dust to become suspended in ihe air. and was Ignited bv the flames; the same playing the greater part in extending the ex plosion, which was very forcible, although the damage to the mine was very slight. This is accounted for from the fact that the explosion was confined to the dry and dusty part of the mine. VETERAN BURIED $50,000 IN MATTRESS ON BED LOCKPORT, N. Y..

BERLIN, Feb. 9.—King Edward, of England, accompanied by Queen Alex andra. arrived in Berlin this morning from London, and was given a warm wel come by Emperor William and the Ger man authorities. The city was gaily decorated in honor of the visitors and large crowds gathered in the streets, which were liberally decorated with flags, to witness the procession to the palace. The special train bearing the king and queen arrived at the Lehrter railroad sta tion at 11 o’clock. There had assembled to meet the king. Emperor William, the crown prince, his eldest son, the other princes of the royal house, including I Prince Henry, of Prussia, the emperor’s j brother: Chancellor Von Buelow, Foreign | Minister Von Schoen and a number of: other members of the cabinet and high ! officials of the court. A squadron of the ; Queen Cictoria Regiment of dragoons,; of which King Edward is honorary colo- ; nel, was drawn up within the station and . the band of this regiment heralded the | arrival of the special train with music. Repeated Kisses King Edward and Emperor William greeted each other heartily and repeated ly, kissing each other on the cheek. • These exchanges over, the procession for I the palace w’ere formed. At the head were ( the dragoons and then came King Ed- j ward and Emperor William in one car- ’ riage with Queen Alexandra and the j empress and Princes* Victoria, the em- I press’ daughter, following in a second. The route of march to the palace was lined with !arge crowds that had been waiting for two hours. The weather was cold and nipping but the people stood pa tiently to witness th* progress of th* em peror and his guests. Within the Brandenberg gate the may or, Herr Kirschner, and the aidermen of Berlin, welcomed the royal visitor*. The mayor delivered a hearty address of i greeting, to which King Edward made ; brief response. The mayor's daughter ; then presented Queen Alexandra with a i bouquet. The Pariser Platz, where these I greetings were enchanged, was elabo rately decorated with evergreens and garlands and official flowers. The Ger man emblems played a conspicuous part in the decoration. After a reception here . the procession moved slowly up Unter den Linden to the palace. The broad street was thronged with people who dis played a great degree of enthusiasm, many cheering and waving hats and handkerchiefs. Windows Decorated The windows of all the buildings front ing on this, the main thoroughfare of Ber lin, were packed with eager observers, and the driveways on both sides of this splendid avenue were filled with soldiers who presented arms as their majesties drove by. As the procession neared the palace a battery posted in the Lustgarten fired a salute of one hundred guns. The crowd* at this point broke into cheers. Upon arriving at the palace, Emperor William and party escorted King Edward to the splendid apartments assigned him on the north front, looking into the Lust garten. The emperor and the empress and King Edward and Queen Alexandra had an informal luncheon together at 1 o’clock. The visiting king and queen were given a public reception of much greater heart iness than had been anticipated, and a large percentage of the people of Berlin gathered on the streets participated in the demonstrations of welcome. The re ception was entirely respectful and no where was there demonstration. King Edward was evidently pleased at the welcome and seemed to be in a jovial mood. Nipped in the Bud The unemployed attempted a demon stration at the time King Edward was driving to the palace, but they were subdued by the police and several ar rests were made. Fifteen meetings of unemployed prsons were held in various parts of the city this morning and reso lutions were adopted against what was characterized as the inadequate meas ures of the city government in the mat ter of non-employment and demanding radical socialistic remedies. At the con clusion of the meetings those present formed in two processions with the in tention of proceeding to the town hall and the palace to make demonstrations. The proceedings were timed to move Just as King Edward was to reach the pa lace. Hooted and Jeered They succeeded in getting through several streets, hooting and jeering, and <n a jocular spirit shouting "Three cheers for the police.” Later the demonstrants became stub born and refused to yield, whereupon the police drew their sabres and at tacked them. The rioters then tried to tear down the flags decorating buildings and omnibuses, but they were prevented by the police and some of them sus tained injuries, while others had to be arrested before order was restored.

Another Atlantian has been elected to head the Home Mission Board of the Southern Baptist convention. The new president is Dr. John F. Purser, pastor of the We*t End Baptist church, who succeeds Dr. W. W. Landrum, re signed. It has been known for several days that Dr. Purser, who is one of the lead ing Baptist ministers of the south, would be the board’* choice. His election was unanimous and without opposition of any kind. Dr. Purser has been in Atlanta for eight years, during which time he has built up the West End church to large 'proportions, and made for himself a prominent place in the city’s religious af fairs. He is a native of Mississippi, and was at one time pastor of one of the largest Baptist churches in New Orleans.

Feb. 10—Th* marble to be used In the interior Atlanta new public building will come from Vermont, although the Georgia quarriee are within thirteen miles of Atlanta- The contract for Vermont marble has already been signed by the Charles McCall com pany, of Philadelphia, contractors for the building, and the announcement wa* officially made yesterday afternoon by representatives of the company who ar* now In Washington. It is stated that the Georgia marble men declined to meet the prices quoted by the Vermont quarries, and the con tractor*. dUergarding sentiment entirely determined to take the New England product, which they ciaim 1* equally a* good as Georgia marble. The contract aggregate* $60,000. The amount of marble that i* to be used in the interior of the po*ti>ffl?e will cost about $50,000. Blds were made upon it by all Georgia companies, but It is said that the bid* of the Georgia companies were several thousand dollars highei than the bids of their Vermont competi tors. Georgia marble, which is conceded to be of the very best, can be secured with in thirteen miles of Atlanta, but. despite this fact, marble from another state is to be shipped hundreds of miles to build a Georgia postoffice. The dispatch does not say whether the selection of the McCall company has been approved by the government, or whether such approval seems probable. BURGLARS BLOW SAFE: GOT $2 FOR TROUBLE Burglars, who afterward escaped, blew open the safe of the Whitehall Drug company, at 498 Whitehall street, at 11;45 o’clock Tuesday night. The explosive, however, failed to break the inner door, and $l5O inside was untouched. The bur glars got $2 from a cash register for their trouble. Dr. J. O. McElroy, the proprietor, lives across the street, and he and his family were awakened by the explosion. At that time the police were on the scene, but the cracksmen had escaped through the rear entrance. The safe was a small one. The door was blown off its hinges.

COLORADO TRAINS ARE HELD UP BY SNOWSLIDES DENVER, Colo., Feb. 10.—The storm that has raged throughout Colorado for the last 24 hours was one of the worst experienced in the state. Never before have th® railroad* been so block aded by snow and slides. The passes through the Rocky mountains aer nearly all blocked and traffic over the Denver and Rio Grande and Colorado Midland is almost suspended. Poncha. Cumbres and Marshall passes were blocked with snow and Tennessee pass was kept open w’lth difficulty. Marshall pass has not been closed before in many years. Thirteen snowslides are reported between Du rango and Silverton, and the Georgetown loop line of the Colorado and Southern is closed. Trains have had many narrow . scapes and a number of towns have been cut off from com munication. BIG SHIPMENTS OF FERTILIZER GOON ABOUT $1«,855,500 WAS SPENT IN ENRICHING GEORGIA SOIL LAST YEAR —NO DECREASE IS EXPECTED. Within a dew days the yearly avalanche of more than three-quarters of a million tons of fertiliser valued at some seven teen million dollars, will begin to slip; and before two weeks are passed, say authorities In the state agricultural de-« partment, the vital land nutriment that means so much to the cotton market of the world will have begun to spread over the fields of Georgia in preparation for the coming season. Already, it is reported, there has been a slight movement in fertiliser in some quarters of southwest Georgia. But the general movement is slow, according to J. F. Johnson, fertiliser clerk In the de partment of agriculture. Mr. Johnson says that the whole season has expe rienced a delay for some reason that he cannot explain. It is probable, however, that thp farmers themselves have been holding off their purchases until the last moment. But the manufacturers, as is well known, guarantee the price of their product, so there can be no logical reason for delay In that quarter. Big Fertilizer Months January, February and March are usually the big months in the yearly movement of fertilizer, but the records In the agricultural department show that there has been very little of that product shipped so far this season. It Is a pecu liarity of the annual distribution of fertil izer, they say, that the whole season’s ■ orders are filed in a bunch and that the business is congested into a few weeks, rush each year because of the ’farmer* propensity to wait till the last minute, till I they almost have their plows in the field, before they send In their orders. 1 In the opinion of Mr. Johnson, fertilizer clerk, however, thi* present week will I mark the deflnite commencement of the I season. He believe* that from now on til the latest seasoned part of the state Is ready for planting, the shipments of fertilizer will be heavy. Valued at In 1908 there were 842,775 tons of fertil izer shipped to farmers and dealers from manufactories in Georgia and outside of 1 the state. Approximately three-quarters ' of that weight, it is estimated, had been ' manufactured in Georgia. Computing at an average valuation of J2O per ton, the value of the whole year'* enrichment placed upon the lands of Georgia was about $16,855,500. The year’s shipment* 1 gave the state a total revenue of $84,277.60. According to the best indications noted * in the state department of agriculture, there is no reason to believe that the ! amount of fertiliser used in 1909 will be 1 greater than that used in 1908. though It is authoritatively predicted that it will ( not be any less. : NAVAL STORES BULL IS NOT WITHDRAWN » WASHINGTON, Feb. 9—The report I that the Taliaferro naval store* bill has » been withdrawn is erroneous.
