liand study of the Tapancnc problem as
:)t nUtn In California watt continued
Tltoday by members of the House imml
'ration and naturalization committee,
who were to spend tne iny in lOKing
evidence In tills district, where, accord
ing to evidence heard yesterday, the
.Japanese, are more centralized than In
any other portion" of the state.
1 Two members of the committee who
yesterday visited the town of Florin, a
Japanese settlement nearby, reported at
the hearing last night they found but
two Japanese children on the street.
'The visit was unannounced.
John Reese, the only American mer
chant In the town, told the committee
men that the word had been passed
amen the Japanese to keep tho chll
' drcn out of sight while the committee
twas In this part of the state. The two
rlsltors were Representatives King
.Svrope. of Kentucky, and J. Will Tay
lor, of Tennessee.
' At thn local office of the Japanese
'Association the secrctnry sunplled the
Information that there were 1007 Jap
anese In the locality. He also offered to
furnish any other Information' tho in
vestigators might desire.
For tomorrow the committee plans a
tour through, the neighboring communi
ties pcoplnl principally by Japanese'.
The committee yesterday devoted
nnat nt Itu tlmn n receiving the evi
dence of TV. a. McClatchy. publisher
of tho Sacramento Bee. who delved
deeply Into figures nnd gave his con
clusions on racial questions.
Mr. McClatchy epitomized the sit
uation by saying that "70' per cent of
the 100,000 Japanese in California nre
(concentrated in seven counties in the,
richest agricultural section of the
"State."
Continued nctivlty by Japanese in
bringing on "picture brides" wns also
charged by Mr. McClatchy. One new
plan, Mr. McClatchy said, was that of
bringing into the United States of
"yoshi, or adopted children, who later
could divorce their parents here. This
made possible, ho declared, a "yoshi"
becoming the "picture bride" of her
adopted nnd divorced father.

BOY DIVER FINDS SUICIDE
Sharpsvllle Mill Man Has Stone Tied
to Head
Sharon, Pn July 14. Diving Into
tho Shcnnngo river near Sharpsvllle,
late yesterday, Ray Stafford, aged
twelve years, encountered the body of a
mnh who later proved to bo Matt Ken
nedy, aged sixty years: About tho man's
head n large ktonc had been tied. In
one of his pockets wns found a note,
signed "Matt Kennedy," nnd rending:
"This day He has to take unto Him
self just the same as the Only Begotten
did. I hnve to die in my. father's blood.
It is to be finished just the same."
For many years Kennedy had been
employed In n Hhnrpsvllle steel mill.
Recently he had been unable to work
because of sickness.
"A , red-headed runt of a German,
with whom my sister never could have
fallen in love, cVen if he were something
more than a chauffeur."
This was the description given todny
of Bernard B. Gcissler. the chauffeur
who murdered Mrs. Arthur E. De Cor
dovn, by the murdered woman's sister,
Mrs. Benjamin P. Crookes. of 1120 Fifth
street, Hnddon Heights. N. J.
Mrs. Crookes. n widow, said her
sister was a tall, beautiful woman, of
excellent chnractcr and one who would
never have returned a chauffeur's
affection for htr. The murdered woman
was younger than Mrs. Crookes.
"My sister could not posslblv hnve
entertained any affection for this man,"
said Mrs. Crookes. "There was no
mutual Infatuation, though pcrhnps tht
chauffeur was infatuated with my sister.
"Such n woman as mv sister wns.
good looking, refined nnd educated, could
never have entertained nuy love for
Gelssler, who was nothing more than a
red-headed runt of n German.
"I knew Gcissler nnd always thought
him n trustworthy man. He never
showed auy signs of insanity, but he
must have been insane when he did this
terrible act.
"The fnct that my sister took long
automobile rides with him Into the open
country can be explained in this way :
SJie wns n great nature lover nnd went
qfr in search of nowcrs at every oppor
tunity. "Sho was not n drinklnc woman and
I do pot believe she nnd Gcissler were
drinking in the car. The story" that they
were Joyriding is impossible. My sister
wns not accustomed to that sort of
thing."
Mrs. Crookes said she got a letter
from Mrs. Do Cordova about three weeks
ngo which showed that tho latter was
in uuusually good Iiculth and linppy.
Mrs. Crookes left for New York to
day to attend tho fuueial of her sister.

RUMOR PRESIDENT AGAIN ILL
Official Circles Hear His Health
Causes Family Grave Concern
Washington, Jujy 14. It was report
ed In official circles in Washington Inst
night the qucstlpn of President Wil
son's health wns again cnusing grave
concern to the members of his family
nnd to his closest ndvlscrs.
No confirmation of the reports wns
obtainable. It was said the President's
condition is due in lnrge measure to
the oppressive, heat of Washington in
midsummer.
La Follette Declines
to Be Candidate
allied to pay federal expenses, contain
ed In tho original labor platform was
dropped by the conferees on n nearly
unanimous vote. This eliminated ono
fighting point.
Tho first evidence of a possible break
up on the new party movement fol
lowed but nlghtfs session 'when tho
Single Taxers withdrew, adopted their
One-plank platform arid nominated
presidential candidates. For Presi
dent they chose Robert C. Macnulcy,
of .Philadelphia, nnd for Vlco Presi
dent they selected R. O. Bnrnum, ot
Cleveland.
Th'ey quit the new party, Jeromo C.
Reis, a Single Tnr lender said, because
it was not only apparent, thoy could
not obtain their plntform desires nnd
n candldnto committed to them, but
also because they "could not stand the
socialistic ideas" of tho dominant la
bor group.
Split Over Plumb Plan
Inclusion of the Plumb plan nnd dec
laration (or government ownership o(
mines were sold to bo two points in
dispute in the platform.
Tho birth of the new party yester
day, after five days of conferences, wns
nttended by tumultuous scenes In which
moro than once the fledgling movement
faced shipwreck on the rocks of jeal
ousies oim gruup antngonisms.
In the very Beginning tbo Labor party
organization grabbed the rudder and
steered the course until consideration
of tho platform resolutions was begun.
Labor Is Wrecking
Third Party Hopes
Continued tram rnge Onn
labor platform hnd been written by
Robert Buck-, editor of the Socialist
paper, tho New Majority, nnd It was
full of the revolutionary language which
the socialists nffect.
La Follcttc's friends criticized the
document ns being "psychologically
bad." -Thcy felt that 1t marked the
whole movement. as being more closely
related to tho revolutionary parties Umn
to iiocraiism.
Up to the moment when they en
countered Ln Follctte's objections to
their platform the Labor party leaders
had been Having everj thing their own
way. They hud stolen the Forty-eight
convention nwny from Pinchot nnd
Record.
They simply threatened to make an
independent nomination at 2 o'clock
yesterday unless the two conventions
renched an ugrecment before thnt. nnd
that wns enough to induce tho Forty
eight delegates to move in n body over
to Carmen's Hall nnd merge themselves
with the Labor convention. Once the
Forty-eight delegates were ln the same
hall with the labor convention thoy dis
appeared like drops of rain falling upou
the surface of the sen. They were un
organized npd they ere not conscious
of themselves ns a party.
The convention became to nl intents
and purposes an enlarged Labor prtrty
convention, Tho labor lenders went
right on with their program, ns if they
wcro just continuing tho work of tho
day before passing resolutions, rcportccj
by tho Labor party's committeo on res
olutions, which tho Forty-eight dclc
gates had never seen. Tho Labor party
simply swallowed up the Forty-eight.
Tho explanation of this Is that the
labor forces nre Ute only forced here
which nro organized, nnd which hnve a
definite purpose Record nnd Pinchot
wanted to found n liberal party. But to
do so they brought together not liberals
but a lot of radicals over whom they
bad no control.
The Labor party, on tho other hand,
Is ono of the best disciplined and best
controlled organizations In tbo field. The
organized movement absorbed the un
organized movement, leaving Record,
Pinchot and their associates utterly
nlnnp.
The knowledge thnt La Follette would
not run unan their nlntfarm was a
hard blow to tho labor leaders, who
dreaded to face thn united convention
with this Information. For this rea
son they delayed tho convcnUon last
night and sought to adjust their plat
form to La Follcttc's views. But they
have an nim which is utterly incon
sistent with the nlms of La Follette and
of the Forty-eight organizers. This Is
to create n Labor party like tho British
Labor party.
Building for Future
TVhen the leaders of tho Forty-eight
protested that tho labor leaders here
were wrecking the prospects of a. third
party which would appeal wldelv to lib
erals thrniic-li flip eountrv they an
swered that they were building for rthe
future. Many of them care nothing
about success this time.
Intprnnl Amerlpnn Fpilerntlon of La
bor politics influence them. They feel that
they can fight President Samuel Gom-
ners effectively only through tho estab
lishment of a Lnbor party nnd through
tho conversion of tho labor movement
In this poiintrv Into n nolitiCal move
merit. Merely to associate themselves
with n liberal party would not nccom-
nllsli fhlM nurnoKp.
tor this reason they nave insisieu
upon the name "Labor" for the third
party, nnd they have Insisted upon a
radical nrneram fn order to nttrnct Into
the Independent political movement of
labor the powerful rallrond brother
hoods and the I'nited Mine Workers.
The present Indications nre thnt the
third party movement win not uc im
nortnnt. To have cut a figure ln the
campaign it hnd to attract the support
of tho Nonpartisan League, of the
Hearst newspapers nnd of the railroad
brotherhoods and the United Mine Work,
era. All of theso forces might have
been united in n movement which prom
ised some measure of success, but none
of them likely to attach themselves
to one which, in the language of Its own
friends, is merely building for the fu
ture. They nre all likely to look upon
n straight class party with tho same
cold eje tiint La Follette himself does.
SINGLE TAX NOMINEE

city, candidate
United States.
Mucaulcy, who lives at 2410 West
Cumberland street, is the nominee of
the Single Tax party. Ho wns chosen
yesterday at Chicago with an Ohio man
ns running mate.
The new Single Tax chieftain, who
advocates taxation on land alone, Is
no novice in tho political game. He
was a candidate for Governor of Penn
sylvania in 1018 and ran for Vuite
States senator two years earlier.
In his campaign for Governor, Ma
cauley garnered 1077 votes throughout
Pennsylvania. This city gave him 14!i
votes, Including four from soldiers. His
home ward, the Twenty-eighth rolled
ip n total of five, of which .three came
from his home division. Governor
Sproul's state total was fi55,(tt7.
Like his Republican and Democratic
opponents, Hording and Cox, Mncnuley
is a former newspaperman. He "cov
ered" City Hall for years for n morn
ing newspaper. Lately he has been
publicity mnnngcr for tho brokerage
firm of Winslow Taylor & Co., 1308
South Fifteenth street.
Mncnuley has been n familiar figure
at tho "Armchair Club" In the Mnyor's
reception room, City Hall. With a
true devotion to the cause championed
by Henry George, he was always ready
to argue out the merits of single tax.
The conversation might start with base
ball or the latest crime mystery, but
Invnriably Macaulcy switched It to tho
single-tax road.
In tho game of practical politics,
Macaulcy gnve n helping hand to the
candidacy of Mayor Mooro Inst fall.
Republican Alliance leaders could not
obtain watchers' certificates for nil. di
vision. Macaulcy offcivd Single 'I
party certificates for every division In
the city. The offer was accepted.
If the single -tnx movement swceiw
the nation in November, Mncnuley will
be a bachelor President like the only
other PcntiBylvanian to reach the White
House, .lames liuchanan. .Mncnulej
lives .with his sister at the Cumberland

Relations Severely Strained
Relations have become strained be
tween the Labor party leaders nnd rep
resentatives of the Committee of Forty-
eight. At n meeting nt 7 o'clock tov
night in their former convention hall the
Forty-eighters will decide whether
or not the fusion convention notion has
been satisfactory to their followers. The
Forty-clghters at n caucus decided to
continue their state and national organ
izations. After the convention had been cnllcd
to order today forty minutes late the
delegates indulged in n frco-for-all con
test to select tellers to count the votes
that were expected today. This con
sumed another half hour.
The question of tho manner of voting
was brought before the convention nut'
an hour was spent in arguing whether
each state should be counted as repre
senting a voto equal to the state's elec
toral vote or whether only the nctilnl
number of delegates in the state dele
gation should vote. The result wns that
each state should bo voted as represent
ing n vote equal to the state's electoral
vote.
"Forty-eighters," who constitute the
right wing group of the fusion move
ment, nro bitterly opposed to tho more
socialistic ideas of the radical labor
faction. In this stand they have the
support not only of La Toilette, but of
several minority organizations subscrib
