AMERICA AND JAPAN.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 4. It is learned from a high authority that the State Department anticipated the Californian referendum on the anti-Japanese referendum and tentatively reached an agreement with the Japanese Ambassador concerning the situation. It is understood they agreed to an enactment of the law prohibiting the immigration of Japanese to the United States. In return for this the Japanese in California will be accorded full civil property rights. It is believed the Japanese Government accepts such an agreement, and the Treaty covering the details will be drawn up and sent to the Senate. A United Press message from Tokio states that the news of the passage of California’s anti-Japanese legislation was received quietly throughout Japan.
