MANY CHURCHES ARE BURNED Fury of Crowds Is Directed Against Christians.' MARTIAL LAW PROCLAIMED Tokio Asks Mikado to Abandon the Treaty, but Komura Says He Will Xot Yield Riots Throughout Empire. TOKIO, Sept. 7. (4 P. 31.) U Is re ported thnt tliere Is rlotinjr In Cblbn, a tovrn of 20,000, SO inlleH mnt of Toklo. The prcfectoral building: and the Conrt houac are reported to tanvc been burned. The Kvernment haw Kuspeniled the farther publication of the Xlrokti, a ncwwpnper printed in Toklo. TOKIO. Sept 8. (Special.) Martial law ha been declared throughout Japan and the full power of the army 1s being used to uphold the Mutsuhlto dynasty and put down rioting, which threatens to Involve the entire nation. Rioting was resumed throughout the country Thursday night and mobs swarmed through the streets of this and other cities, burning and destroying homos, churches and schools of native Christians. It is reported, although not confirmed, that tho few mission churches and schools that orcaped the vengeance of the mobs Wednesday night arc now destroyed. The temper of the mob is- shown by the 6ct that there arc now more than 200 badly wounded policemen in tho hospitals and more being taken there hourly. What the casualties were to the crowds cannot be estimated, as many of the hurt were carried off by friends. As soon as the -widespread character of th rioting was known, a, council was railed at the palace and a few minutes later an Imperial ordinance declaring mar. tWU law throughout Japan was promul gated. Orders were sent to the command ers of the various detachments of Imper ial guards to immediately suppress riot ing and they wore marched to the for eign legations and government buildings. A cordon was established around the for eign quarter and all government build ings were barricaded and cannon mounted commanding the approaches. This radical action has temporarily checked the riot ing, but the temper of the mob Is still very blttor and more lighting is mo montarlly expected. The change in the sontlmcnt of the Japanese towards Americans is marvelous. Ten days ago the United States was looked upon as Japan's best friend and the appearance of an American on the streets was greeted with cheers. Today the people are furious against the United Stales and would burn the American Le gation here were it not guarded by a large military force. The charge is openly made by the mob leaders and followers of tho "Young Japan" movement that President Roosevelt tricked the Japa nese envoys Into adopting humiliating terms of pooce In order to prevent Japa nese competition with American trade in China. This feature adds to the gravity of the rturation hore, although, if the army re mains loyal, tho disturbance will oon be put down. . TWENTY WOUNDED IN CONFLICT Guard's Tiniely Threat of Suicide. Crowds Attack Police. TOKIO, Sopt. E. (6 A. M.) Thirteen oars and one railway kiosk were de stroyed by rioters last night. Twenty persons were wounded during the clashes with the police and many oth ers were slightly wounded by stones in the crushes of the crowds. The disturbance i nthe Kanda. dis trict of the city proved not to be serl uh. Tho crowd first threatened to burn the Russian cathedral, but a ser geant of the guard cleverly prevailed upon It to desist by saying that, if the cathedral were destroyed, he and tho guard would commit suicide. The crowd agreed not to touoh the ca thedral. There was considerable disorder and noise In the district, but there was no destruction of property and no serious clashes between them and the police. Demonstrations against the metro polltan police headquarters continued until a late hour. Crowds swarmed around the Jail and hooted and threat ened. The newspapers generally as sail the police authorities for with drawing street patrols and leaving the olty unprotected. Soldiers are proving to be more ef fective than the police in handling the crowds. The soldiers are popular and the crowds generally obey their orders. Accompanying the ordinance declar Ing martial law is an urgency ordi nance Increasing restrictions on the press and giving authority lor the sus pension o papers guilty of increasing the excitement and other breaches of order. Under this ordinance the gov ernment has suspended the publication of the Mlyako, the Yurou and the Ni roku. . The Tokio municipality, has passed a resolution denouncing the terms and favoring the abandonment of the peace treaty. The municipality had planend a mass meeting at Hibaya Park today, hut on account of the danger of disorder, vol untarily canceled the meeting. j WILL XOT INFLUENCE MIKADO Komura Says Riots Cannot Prevent Approval of Treaty. NEW YORK, Sept. 7. Baron Komura said today that his coming interview with Mr. Root, -which he expected -would oc cur in New York City either Friday or Saturday this week, would be purely a formal exchange of courtesies and that their meeting had no other object. The Baron denied emphatically the rumor that the Emperor of Japan had not yet given his -approval to the peace treaty, or that the powers of the Japanese plenipotentiaries were so limited that at this late hour there was any possibil ity that the Emperor will Xall to ratify the treaty. "The present disturbances In Toklo." he said, "cannot in the slightest degree Influence the Emperor's determination to ratify the treaty when he receives,, an official copy of it." Baron Komura reiterated his opinion that the disturbances in Toklo -were di rected against the local branches of the government. TOKIO SETTLES DOWN AGAIN t Military Commander Warns People to Stop Disorder. TOKIO, Sept 7. 5 P. M.) Toklo has been quiet today. General Sakuma, com mander of the Toklo garrison, has Issued a proclamation warning the populace against 'disorder. . BURNS koUSE OF JIINISTElt Mob Shows Hatred of Treaty by Driving. Off Police. - , TOKIO. Sept. 5. (Delayed In transmis sion.) Serious rioting followed the attack on the office of the Kokumln Shlmbun. the government organ. A mob attacked and burned the official residence of the Minister of Home Affairs, which stood between the Nobles Club and the Im perial Hotel and faced Hibaya Park, which was the storm center throughout the day. Threatening demonstrations oc curred In the neighborhood of the official homes of Premier Katsura and Baron Komura, Foreign Minister, who Ib now In the United States, but the police suc ceeded in preventing Injury to the occu pants or damage to the house. The situation tonight is threatening. Turbulent crowds fill tho streets, and It Is feared much damage to property Is possible under the cover of the darkness. All the police reserves are performing ur gent duty and heavily guarding danger ous spots. The streets in the neighbor hood of the Kokumln Shlmbun arc closed, and 200 police form, a cordon around the office. The destruction of the Home Minister's xcsldonce -was Intensely dramatic. Throughout the day a series of demon strations occurred in the neighborhood of the building, and late in the afternoon the mob attacked the house, swept tho police away and battered down the gates. The police and servants resisted stoutly, but the mob surged forward and entered the house. One of the mob loaders car rying an armful of burning straw gained the rear of the structure and succeded In setting It on lire. The police reserves charged the crowd, using their swords freely, but the mob rallied from several Quarters and stoned the firemen -when they arrived. Tho members of the Min ister's household were rescued and es corted to the Imperial Hotel. When darkness came the flames from the burn ing building Illuminated a menacing scene, the mob hooting and throwing stones at the police and firemen, .repeat edly clearing the streets. Accurate figures of the casualties are not obtainable. It is known, however, that one man was killed, that 14 -were mortally -wounded by sword-thrusts and that many persons wore bruised with atones and injured in the crushes. Another demonstration is planned for September S, and it Is believed that the strongest measures will be necessary to prevent serious rioting and bloodshed. A member of the mob which burned the Home Minister's residence said to the correspondent of the Associated Press: "We burned the house for the purpose of attracting tho attention of the Em peror. We want him to refuse to ratify the treaty. We believe that those sur rounding him prevent him from correctly understanding the popular attitude toward the disgraceful, humiliating peace." PRESIDENT LEARNS OF RIOTS Seriously Concerned Over Situation Which Develops. OTSTER BAY, Sept. 7. Not until late this evening did the President learn of the serious disturbances . in Toklo. The information was in the form of a dis patch to the Associated Press. He ex pressed concern over the situation that had developed over the riots, but made no comments on them. Thus far, It is said officially, no advices' have been received from Minister Griscom at Toklo, or from any other official source la Japan regarding the anti-peace demon strations. Such advices as might be re ceived naturally would go to the State Department, but it Is quite certain that any information of a serious character would be transmitted immediately to the President. No such advices have yet reached President Roosevelt. The President was absent from Saga more Hill during tho entire day. About 9 o'clock this morning, accompanied by Mrs. Roosevelt and their children and by several other members of the Roosevelt family who reside In the vicinity of Sag amore Hill, he left his home for an out ing. The party spent the day at Jaynos Hill and did not return home until about 6 o'clock this evening. WHOLE NATION MAY PROTEST General Movement Against Treaty Is Being- Organized. LONDON, Sept.

RECONCILIATION ON STAGE President Keller Makes an Explana tion and an Apology and, Greets Secretary Cantvrcll Amid Tumultuous Applause. There are five active candidate for president of the K. A. L.-C AH are regarded as competent, capable men, each ambitious to make a record, but the two leading candidates each believe that unices tbe other withdraws It will be a long-drawn battle of ballets. J. D. Holland, of Bo ten; M. A. Fltxrer ald, of New York; George Davison, of St. Louis; Richard F. Qulnn. of Phila delphia, and D. J. Geary, of Chicago, are the leading candidates. Atlantic City la putting up a . strong campaign for tbe next convention. Other cities In the race are Canton. Fort Worth. Minneapolis and Des Melne. Election of officers and selection of the next place of meeting Is tho order ef business for. tomorrow. Intensely dramatic scones were enacted' at the sessions of the first biennial con vention of the National Association of Letter-Carriers yesterday In the Armory. Charges of financial mismanagement and official misconduct were hurled about tho Auditorium, In which the convention meets, and the whole of the aftornoon and evening sessions wore given up to the statements of Secretary E. J. Cant well and President J. C. Keller, interrog atories of delegates and responses by these officials and 'members of the ex ecutive board, terminating in an unex pected climax, when President Keller apologized to the convention If by any act or word of his the good name of Sec retary Cantwell had been tarnished, and making tho apology a personal one. ad vanced across the platform with extended hand, which the secretary grasped, and the two men stood in this attitude of union while the assembled letter-carriers made the building tremble with an out burst, of apoljiyjf?. Report Starts the Trouble. It was when the report of the executive committee was submitted that the roost bltter'debate In the history of the organi zation was precipitated. For months there havebeen occasional dispatches published throughout the land hinting at internal dissension in the National Association of Letter-Carriers and bearing upon the re lations existing between the organization and officers of tho government. The clouds that have been gathering for years within the official circle and membership were concentrated yesterday on the plat form of the convention and the flood was one of explanation and recital of details Involved in the accusations that have been bandied about in Washington. New York and the larger cities concerning the conduct of the association affairs. The storm was followed by the sunshine of a united membership, determined to select strong men to occupy official position and make it more effectively than ever before a benefit to the lotter-carrlors of the country and better qualified to secure action from Congress on the salary bill that has been the object of association effort. Calls Attention to Omission. The report of the executive committee was brought into debate when J. Hlner wadel, of New York, called attention to the omission or-any statement that he had resigned and his place had been filled by David Geary, of Chicago. He averred that he had refused to serve longer be cause he had found treachery existed and that politics was considered rather than the good of the organization. He alleged that tho copies of records of Investiga tions made of the secretary's office had been stolen from his grip while he was en route to Portland, and that he had in tended fully to acquaint the delegates with the facts of that Investigation with the report. Secretary Cantwell was accorded the floor Immediately upon convening of the afternoon session. Ho presented an ex haustive report reviewing the whole con troversy of the past two years, in which his own good name had been assailed and his reputation smirched by allegations and groundless assertions. He had ac cumulated a vast amount of evidence in substantiation of his assertions, In cluding numerous statements of well known members, and affidavits in support of the same. It was of a convincing character and when he concluded, after almost three hours before the conven tion, he was accorded a tremendous ova tion In prolonged cheering of the dele gates, hats were tossed ceillngward and other manifestations of joy that the be loved secretary had made such a strong showing in his own behalf. It was charged In the report without equivocation that he firmly believed the president and S. W. Shepard, acting secretary during the time that Secretary Cantwell was la' Colorado, i?ad become parties to a con spiracy for his removal. President Keller's Statement. President Keller was then recognized by Vlv-Presldent Bunton, and asked an opportunity to be heard. Several dele gates were seeking .recognition and Sec retary Cantwell, evidently thinking they were not willing to accord the president the privilege, requested that President Keller be heard, saying that in his Judg ment tno delegates snouid near every thing that might be offered, and that there might be facts that President Keller could produce with which He was him self unfamiliar. Then the time for the address of the president was fixed for opening of the evening session and re cesg -was taken. President Keller also was fortified with aa abundance of correspondence and data, and. when he started to explain his con nection with the affairs. Reviewed delib erately the history of his official labors, conversations with Individuals and par ticularly what Acting Secretary S. W. Shepard had repeated to him as the lan guage of Secretary Cantwell concerning himself. He stated that he had officially ordered Shepard to attend the Portland session and that his expenses would be paid, but Mr. Shepard had not responded. In the most unqualified terms Be declared that he had never at any time been a party to any conspiracy, agreement M0f understanding having for Its object" the removal of Secretary CantwoifP' lessen ing the personal stawJiasyoY that gentle man, and expressed the- deepest regrot that any act or language of his might have been io construed. He spoke feel ingly and flimly when he offered apology to Secretary, Cantwell and extended the hand of fellowship, asking that the chasm between them might be bridged with bet-' ter feeling, the two looked each other squarely In the face, and then clasped hands. Repetition of Idle Rumor. With abundance of evidence submitted by both men the delegates soon began to analyze it and it was the opinion that much of the difficulty that has beset the organization Is chargeable to the effort of over-zealous rcpltltlon of. Idle rumor and disposition to create alarm where no occasion for such alarm exists. f In closing his remarks President Keller declared that h believed a thor ough Investigation should be made, not only on behalf of the Indlvldualsln volveJ. and that It Is his own. intention" to go to the courts to seek aHmeansrSt finding out whence the sensatlonal'stb rles clroulated originated. On motion of Delegate Patton. of Philadelphia, a vote of confidence in the ability, honesty and faithful perform ance of duty of Secretary Cantwell was amended to Include appropriation of 5750 to cover the expense to which tho secretary had been, put in accumulating evidence to exonerate himself. The mo tion was adopted without a dissenting vote. Likewise a motion was made to ex onerate President Keller from blame In the matter, which was also adopted, and adjournment taken to this morn ing. Today there will bo but on session In the forenoon, and the day will bo devoted principally to tha Exposition. This morning- the report will be re ceived from the committee on nomina tions, and ballots will be cast tomorrow for selection of men who will guide the association in a new epoch that is to dato from the Portland session."

Whiskey and beer In copious quantities, cakewalks.

They also took along several bottles of beer. "Arriving at Mrs. Wright's rooms, they proceeded to have- some music. After their arrival other parties also came In. To heighten the entertainment, some of the parties went over to a variety theater and brought back two musical perform-, ers, and a female Impersonator. Music and Much Beer. "The company now consisted of about dozen persons. Music upon various in struments was furnished and vocal ef forts la many keys. Beer and whisky were summoned from a nearby saloon In copious quantities. They danced the waltz, two-step. Jigs, cake walk and other wise amused themselves, while the Im personator gave a variety of perform ances. "There Is soma conflict In the evidence as to the amount of noise accompanying this entertainment the respondents claiming that It was very orderly and comparatively quiet, while appellant's witnesses describe it as being exceeding ly boisterous. Anyway, sometime after midnight other tenants In the building complained vigorously to the landlord, this appellant, about the noise in Mrs. Wright's apartments, and finally appel lant told respondents that the disturbance must cease or ho would call In the police. Respondents fix the hour of this as 1 A. M. Other evidence places it at about A. M." Letter That Daniel Wrote. The opinion then relates that the next day Daniel left In Wright's rooms a letter, whlcli Is given In full. The leading feature of this letter Is the statement that "lajit night you held a war-danco and carried on at a rate that would be a disgrace to tho 'Comlque,' or the worst dancehall In tho city." This letter Daniel showed to another lodger, and the Wrights, hearing of It, concluded that they had been libeled by the reference to the dancehalls, and brought theTr suit with the above result In the lower court. Kb A.uthorly on Dancehalls. The Supreme Court modestly confesses to a lack of Information "as to the char- actor or reputation of the 'Comlque.' or as to how bad .the dancehalls are In Spo kane, or as to whether there are any." There was nothing In the complaint In tho nature of Inducement, colloquium or In nuendo, so the Supreme Court concludes as follows: "Owing to the character of the facts re vealed In the evidence In this case, we do not conceive that a discussion of them would be edifying or essential. "In view of the form of the complaint and considering merely the evidence ad duced on the part ot .respondents, and that on appellant's behalf, which was un contradicted, we are led to believe that the ends, of Justice will bo subserved by a dismissal of this action. The Judgment of the honorable Superior Court is re versed, with directions to dismiss action." the iiErirsuE ROADS PREACHER INSISTS I ON RIGHT TO HALF-FARE TICKETS.

HIS TALE OF BITTER WRONG Gas Magnate Says He "Will Still Go "to Senate and Pours Vitriolic A Words on the Man. Put in as a Filler; J OREGONTAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, Sept. 7. "I am 64 years old and a victim of the felicitous reputation given me by the newspapers, but I am going to the United States Senate from Delaware." declared J. Edward Addicks at the close of a midnight interview in Philadelphia, in which ho most scathing ly arraigned Senator Allee for having publicly announced that hereafter the Delaware Republican organization will not support Addicks for Senator. Allee Is now chairman of the Republican Btate organization, though he was up to a few weeks ago Addicks' best iriend and work ed faithfully for many years to bring about the election of the gas magnate, but Addicks' money is gone, his power is gone, it became apparent that his last chance of securing election was gone, and Allee. with practically tho entire Addicks organization, deserted his former leader. This brought out Addicks' interview, ia which he said: Calls Alice a Traitor. "There Is nothing the people of Dela ware scorn and despise as much as they do treachery. For a traitor there Is noth ing but contempt of all the people of the state. Frank Allee has at last revealed himself in his true colors, but he will not know the awful price ho must pay for his treachery to me until he goes out to face a state fall of people all of whom will despise him for the traitor that ho Is." "When I took up Frank Allee he was a poor Jeweler In Dover. I gavo him wealth, power and position, and now he pales before the possibility of defeat and exposes himself for the traitor that be Is. For two years, reports have been coming to me that he Intended to make himself a Benedict Arnold. I never paid any attention to them until Just recently. Only a Filler In Senate. "Frank Allee never had the slightest claim to the United States Senatorshlp. I gave him his scat in the Senate, Just as I gavo him his horses, his bank stock and hlB silver inlaid hail-piece. He was not qualified for the place either Intellec tually or politically, and I gave It to him simply because the place needed a filler. It was In these circumstances that Allee went to Washington. "Ho and his son get $7200 a year out of his Senatorshlp, and with other rela tives that he has landed In Federal places the Allee family is now drawing about 512,000 a year out of the Government Treasury.
