SANTA ROSA, Cal., Jan. 28. Despite efforts of IiIh attorneys to secure his release, Dr. Wlllard 1'. Hurke, proprietor of the llurke san itarium, who, at midnight, was found Bullty of IinvltiK dynamited tho tent of Lu Hltu Smith last February, Bpent today in a cell at the county Jail. He will remain there until 10 o'clock Monday, when ho will be sentenced, and when his motion for a new trial and release on ball pendltiK It Is scheduled to como up before Judge Kmmott Scawoll. Tho clinrKR against Dr. Hurko was "exploding dynamite In a building Inhabited by a human being." At the home of the deputy sheriff where she has been under surveil lance since Dr. Durke's trial began, Lu Kttn Smith received tho newH of his conviction today. She waB pleas ed, she told a United Press roporter, and lu her next breath sho said she would still love Dr. Hurke had the verdict been lu his favor. "I'm awfully sorry my lovo for Dr. Hurko turned out as It did," she said. "I loved him so much that I couldn't have thought ho tried to kill me and our baby, and if he had boon proved Innocent I would still lovo him." Dr. IJurko accopted his conviction philosophically. After refusing to Issue a statement ho re-consldored and said that he already was plan ning to tnlco his fight for freedom to the highest court If his motion for n new trial wore donlod. "I havo been accustomed since boyhood to tnko things as thoy come," said Hurko. "The verdict, of course, was a disappointment, but I am innocent, and I eventually will be able to jirovo It. I have studied phil osophy and am now able to apply It lu my own case. I must say that I was surprised at tho Jury, ns I had expected an Immediate acquittal." I)r, llurko's wife, accompanied by Mrs. Grlggsby, her friend, and boon companion since the trial began, call ed at tho jail today early to sco her husband. They met lu the Jail's out er office and tallied quietly together for nearly an hour. Mrs. Hurke arrived at and left tho Jail In a clos ed automobile and refused to be In terviewed on tho outcome of the trial The explosion occurred February D, . wrecking Miss Smith's tent, but In juring her only slightly. Her baby, whose paternity sho charged to Dr. llurke, was not hurt. Tho explosion at first was supposed to have been accidental, but a belated Investiga tion resulted In an indictment against tho aged sanitarium keeper. Shortly afterward Miss Smith dis appeared, but later was located In Japan. Other witnesses also disap peared and tho trial was drawn out four months, oJe Prewcr hy His Athletic Prowess President Taft Openly Endorses San Succeeds In Gaining Foothold On Francisco and Has Determined to Speeding Wagon and Checking , Inject Himself Personally Into the Runaway. SACRAMENTO. Cal.. Jan. 28. Predicting a terrible war with Japan within two years If the coolie Immi gration clause be eliminated from the proposed Japanese-American con vention, Senator J. II. Sanford of Uklah today prepared a resolution to be submitted to the senate when it shall convene Monday. "If the coolie clause in not allowed to stand," said Sanford, "hundreds and thousands of coolies will enter the country and without an anti alien law to hold them In check, will fill every part of tho rich valleys of California. "Tho Japanese not only become farmers and laborers, but they also become lessees of lands and the coin merce of California would soon be under the domination of a race that cannot co-mlugle with Americans. "The best way to handle the ques tion is to meet It firmly like Amer ican patriots; to have America for Americans. This is a white man's country, and the white man must run It." SAYS MEDFORD IS BEST KNOWN CITY Dudloy Watson Moor of Moor, Khul company has relumed from tho north, whore he spent several weeks lu Portland and Seattle. Portland, lie thinks, will be tho metropolis of the northwest. The downhill haul to tho turn is one of its most valuable attain, for It enables one engine to tnko Into market u train of 50 load ed cars, whereas into Seattle it Is difficult for several engines to pull a few ears. Without Its Alaska trade that city never would hae made the wonderful allowing lu its shipping though It must be admitted that Its harbor Is magnificent and I of In calculable valuo. Mr. Moor says that on all sides one hoars of Medford of Its climate and fruit and remarkable growth In tho Ihhi few years, and that he wm Khul to not back to sunshine, as lu Seattle he only saw the luminary but once I u three weeks.
