Chicago, Sept 17-The Tribune today says that the $29,240,000 fine imposed on the Standard Oil Company Ty Federal Judge Landis recently will be wiped out of existence on a technicality if the plans of the Standard Oil Company lawyers, which became known yesterday, are carried to fruition.

The line of action revolves around the decision of Judge Landis in the Alton immunity case, which is set for hearing on September 24th. In the event that the Alton is granted the immunity which waa promised to the railroad through agreement with former Attorney-General aiooay, tne Standard Oil attorneys will demand that Judee Landia's aside on-the ground that the Standard Oil lawyers should have been apprised of this immunity agreement in' order that they might question the Alton railroad witnesses properly: 1 The Standard.

They Thui Violate the Spirit of the Agreement Between the Two Countries. Ottawa, Sept 17. Japanese Immigration was the subject of a conference be tween, rremier Sir Wilfrid Laurier, Mr. AahiL the special Japanese envov and Japanese Consul-Oeneral Nosse yesterday Hienwgo. The position of the Canadian covern- ment is already well known, but may be repeated, that the old arrange ment in regard to Jaoanese lmmisration into Canada should be maintained.

In effect this arrangement was that not more than 600 persons should arrive in Canada from Japan in one vear. The importations from Honolulu greatly- ex ceed this number, and Japan says she is unaoie to control the arrivals from a country under the United States flasr. AO ALT. Xsnll Sir Wilfred Laurier pre sented the Canadian case; Mr. Ishii explained that Japan waa still carrying: out the old arrangement, so far as it was possible for, her to do so, although he was forced to admit that the spirit of the bargain was.

being violated by the arrivals' from Honolulu. The premier suggested that change be made in the treaty bo that 'the same power would be given, to Canada as was now contained in the United States treaty with Japan. in so far as controlling immigration was concerned. Mr. Ishii showed that there would be great difficulty in the way of obtaining amendments to the treaty at the time, and the first minister admitted that a thorough understanding on both' sides if lived np to would be even better, than a written bargain.

Mr. Ishii was pretty much of the same -opinion and will report to his government to that effect. Personally, Mr. Ishii has no power to make any arrangements with Canada, all that he can do is to report to his government The negotiations between Canada and Japan in regard to this matter have been going on for some time, and it is thought that tbe visit of Mr. Ishii will aid in bringing these negotiations to an early and successful conclusion.

Rogers and the family physician that the Standard Oil magnate suffered some sort of stroke last July Las since been unable to transact any business.

Judge Hammond in the supreme court yesterday announced that it would be cruel to compel bis attendance in court, und dismissed a motion to that effect. The condition of Mr. Rogers was in the course of a bearing; on a motion to show that he was capable of attending- the trial of a suit against him tor $50,000,000. brought by C. Haymond of Somerrflle for alleged conversion of certain royalties in connec tion with the production of petroleum.

The bearing began last week with the testimony of Charles Pratt of New Bedford, who stated that Mr. Rogers had suffered from tome stroke last July, and waa not attending to bis business. r- The hearing was resumed yesterday. Counsel Mrs i sought to show by the testimony of friends of Mr. Roger in New Bedford and Boston, and by telephone ticket giving calls between the home of Mr.

Rogers in Fair Karen the Standard. Oil financier had been about the streets, had participated la certain festivities, had engaged in certain business in Mew -Bedford and had been in frequent communication with his associates in New York. Several witnesses admitted that they had talked with Mr. Rogers within the last few weeks, but all declared that he was much changed. In support of the claim that Mr.

Rogers was too ill to appear, four witnesses were heard. The first was Urban H. Broughton son-in-law of Mr. Rogers. JIe said that since July 22d, when Mr Rogers was taken ill in New York, his father-in-law had been unable to transact any business, and that soon' after that date Mr Rogers told him that he must, pick up all his business and carry on the affairs to the best of his knowledge His Face Distorted.

that time Broughton swore, the physician refused to allow. Mr. Rogers to see any member of the family, not even hie wifei IJe admitted that once ia August his father-in-law had talked with John D. Archbold-of -the Standard Oil Company, but not on business. At present, he testified, Mr Bog-enu's face is distorted oa the rigljt side, the left elde of hie body 1 out of ite natural position, and hie speech ie affected, i i Henry H.

The last witness was Dr. Pratt, rho told the court that be couid nor. Mate exactly what would be the ultimate result of the attack last July, sort what it was due. He thought it might be apoplexy, or perhaps a clot on the brain, jot perhaps a slight -paralytic shock Dr. rratt refused to say whether Mr.

Rogers's condition or reluctance to testify in the Massachusetts suit waa due to bis fear that he might be called upon to give evidence to the case of the government against the Standard Oil Company. Judge Hammond then dismissed motion. the SAY BRIDGE 13 DANGEROUS. Albany, N. Sept.
