FLOOD OF CHEAP GOODS Government Guarantees Loan to Cot ton Trust and Pays Half Its Freight Foreign Goods Pay Duty, Japanese Free. VICTORIA, B. C, Juno 19. The steamer Empress of China brouRht advices of mpasure adopted by Japan to corral the Manchurian and Corean trade, which will handicap foreign merchant if not prevent them from competing with Japanese ex porters in Manchuria and Corea. The pro gramme Includes the making ot Dalny a free port In the sense that Import duty will be remitted on Japanese goods for Slanohuria though collected on foreign goods. By means of bounties and subsi dies Japan will encourage her subjects to flood Corea and Manchuria with all kinds of RnodH at low prices, with which the foreign merchant can hardly hope to com ppte, especially under the new custom rats which go Into effect next Octoho Government Backing Trusts.' The Japanese Times, of Tokio, gives the first hint of the protective measures planned. This paper says a cotton trust has been formed by the largest exporters In Japan, who will work through the Mis lul Company, and the Government has nereed to guarantee a maximum loan of J.l.ntiO.OflO. The government will further as sist by bearing half the marine freight age and remlttlna freight rates for one year on the Japanese section of the Chi nese Eastern Railway in Manchuria. Sim ilar arrangements will be made with other corporations formed to ship beer, cement, matches, marine products, timber and other exports of Japan. Several Japanese newspapers point out that these measures will make the foreign merchants chances of competing with the Japanese in Manchuria and Corea small indeed, and some papers speak of the ar rangements as likely to provoke the ant-, mosity of foreign powers. Brigands Hanged in Manchuria. A Japanese who formed a brigade of mounted brigands in Manchuria has been captured by Yuan Shih Kai's troops and turned over to Japan for punishment. Kleven recognized brigand leaders cap tured at the same time were beheaded. On Juno 2. Manchurian brigands seized a railway train of 16 trucks laden with !HVM German rifles, being sent to the Tar tar Generals of Kirln and Amur from Mukden by order of Yuan Shih Kai. EXPECTS CHINESE REVOLT. Russian Army Officer Accuses Japan of Bad Faith In Manchuria. VICTORIA. B. C. June 19. General Tjesflmo. a noted Russian military officer, who was stationed at Shanghai in charge of the Russlon Far Eastern intelligence bureau during the war, arrived here today on the steamer Empress of China, accom panied by his family and Lieutent-Col-onel Bondareff, his -aide de camp, on a tour of the United States before return ing to St. Petersburg. In an interview. General Dessimo said he expected another Chinese outbreak before long a general patriotic movement to free China from foreign restrictions. Within the last two years tiiere has been a growing movement to secure China for the Chinese without foreign in terference and before he left Shanghai this movement was assuming an alarming phase. . The Russian evacuation of Manchuria, he said, was proceeding satisfactorily and affairs were peaceful in Manchuria and Siberia, the reported rioting at Har bin and Vladivostok being mainly due to socialistic propaganda and having been settled. Reports of brigandage In Man churia and North China were circulated, he said, by the Japanese in order to furnish excuse for delay In leaving Man churia. The Japanese were causing con siderable annoyance to merchants In the Far Eaft by their manner of restricting the trade of Manchuria to their own na tion, although professing to open various cities to. general trade. COREAX REBELLION' SPREADS Japan Finds Rebels Armed With Ob solete Weapons Easy Prey. VICTORIA, B. ., June 19. The steamer Empress of China, which arrived today from Yokohama, brought further ad vices of the revolution in Corea. which was spreading. The insurgents lost heavily at Hongju. When the Japauese blew up the city gate, protracted street fighting took place, but the Coreans were helpless with their obsolete arms against the modern weapons of the Japanese'. Two Japanese were killed and two wounded, and 85 insurgents killed and 170 made prisoners. Including the wounded. A number of Influential and wealthy Coreans were among the prisoners, who were to be dealt with according to mil itary law. The rebels numbered over 1000 under Ming Chyongstk, before re-, ported killed, but It transpires that he escaped to Tokusan, where the rebels were in strength. Some tragic occurrences took place at Hongju. A Japanese gendarme and some police taken by the rebels were executed upon the city wall in sight of the Japa nese, who were inventing the place. Ser geant Hijltaka, .who was wounded dur ing the assault, committed suicide, be cause of his chagrin at not being able to take part' in the entry to the city after the gates were blown up. Major Tanaka, in charge of the Japa nese, reported capturing 3f2 rifles, as many gun barrels, several hundred speara. lances and .ffwords, a Quantity of gunpowder and rice. The arms were obsolete and the ammunition of little value. The rebellion has spread to four pro vinces, being most serious In ongwando, angnaeung, Uljln and Yongdaun, which were looted. At Uljin the Government offices were burned and at Yongchun four officials and the magistrate's wife were carried away, the local treasury looted of several thousand yen and a quantity of arms taken fro mthe mili tary barracks. In Kongwondo the rebels are posting proclamations that' they will kill all Coreans, who have cut off their top-knots or wear their hair in foreign style.

DISHOXEST MORTAR THE CAUSE Japanese Tells How to Make Earth-quake-Proof Buildings. SAN FRANCISCO, June 19. "Dishonest mortar a corrupt conglomeration of sea sand and lime was responsible for nearly all of the earthquake damage In San Francisco," says Dr. T. Nakamura. pro fessor of architecture of 'the Imperial University of Tokio and member of the committee dispatched to this city by the Japanese government to investigate the effects "of the tremblore and fire. Dr. Nakamura will sail on the Korea Wednes day, to report to his government. "I find," said Dr. Nakamura yesterday, "that much of the damage to San Fran cisco from the earthquake was due to poor mortar and faulty construction, and the greater portion of the damage to the class "A" buildings by fire was the re sult of misguided in of hollow tiling and so-called fire blocks instead of concrete. "There has developed as a result of the earthquake In San Francisco, great preju dice against brick buildings. However, they are largely employed In Japan, where earthquakes of jErreater severity than the one experienced in this city are not un common. The secret of their success, however, lies In the fact that good morlar Is used. The mortar should either be composed of one part cement to two parts of sand, or of one part cement, three of lime, and five of sand. The bricks should be thoroughly wet before being laid, and when the mortar has set under these con ditions, a wall becomes practically one stone." SHAW WILL MAKE BIG DEPOSIT San Francisco Assured of $12,000, 000 of Government Funds. WASHINGTON. June 19.-A tacit agree ment was reached today by the Presi dent, Secretary Shaw and the delegation of representative citizens of San Fran cisco by which substantial aid will be given San Francisco by the Government. It is proposed that the United States Treasury deposit with the San Francisco bunks $11,000,000 of .Government money, with bonds of the city as security, the money to remain in the banks until the Government shall call for it. This may not be for a number of years, so that the deposit will be of value in the reconstruc tion of the city. Under the law the Secretary of the Treasury has authority to deposit Gov ernment funds in this way, hut cannot bind his successor. It is hoped In Califor nia to organize a corporation with a capi tal of several millions of dollars, to issue bonds to guarantee the Government against loss through the banks. Other plans have been suggested for the raising of money to enable the people of San Francisco to rebuild their homes and business houses, but thus far nothing has been proposed that will meet the Ideas of Congress. Renicke Committed Xo Crime. SAN FRANCISCO, June 19. Ernest H. Denicke, a prominent young clubman, son Of E. A. Denicke, a millionaire banker, and graduate of the State University, who on April 20 killed an unknown man on the watr front, was dismissed by Presiding Judge Shortall today, who told him he had done his duty and committed no crime under the law.

At a meeting of the District Council today. Dr. Thresh, medical officer of the Health Board, reporting on the canned meat question, deprecated alarmist publications and said Britons should remove the beam from their own eyes before attempting to remove the moat from their brothers' eye. ' It was notorious, he declared, that less attention was paid to food Inspection in Great Britain than in any civilized country. No doubt some food was pre pared under disgusting conditions; but the food most implicated did not come to England, and the danger arising from imported products has been enormously exaggerated. eastern excursion rajes June 23, 25, July 2 and 3, August 1, 8,f 9, September 8 and 10."

ADD INCH TO SHIRT Kansas Farmers Have Original Campaign Issue. TO HELP COTTONGROWERS "Down With the Shirt" the Farmers Cry in Unison, but Political Chieftains Stand Aghast at the Suggestion. TOPEKA, Kans.. June 19. (Special). "Down with the shirt'" will be a cam paign cry among the Kansas farmers this Fall. Not that the agriculturists wish to do away 'with that part of the male at tire which is tucked within the trousers; not that they are favoring a return to Adamlc simplicity In matter of dress Oh, no, "down with the shirt" means rather a lengthening of that garment, an addition of one inch, front and rear to the tails that are never displayed to the public gaze except from the back yard line on washing day. Behind the movement is a great al truistic purpose a benefaction to a host of tillers of the soil. Unionism Is ram pant on the prairies of the Sunflower State and the fartners are being urged to form themselves into a league for the amelioration of the entire brotherhood, the raising of the mortgages, the selling of crope. etc. When a doubter asked skeptically: "How can a farmer help any one except himself?" one of the torchbearers of the new faith, the editor of a farming journal, covered him with shame by answering: Origin of New Campaign Cry. "Why, we could sell the whole cotton crop of the United States at a high rate simply by taking thought and adding an inch to the tail of our shirts." The scoffer was covered with confusion and the slogan: "Longer shirts and a Grand piano on every cotton ranch", is now ringing through the commonwealth. The periodical has begun a vigorous campaign for an extension of the shirt taij. If the movement takes root it is to be . expected that walking delegates wearing their shirts outside their overalls, a la Chinois, in order to testify their good faith, will travel from farm to farm, bearing a yardstick and calling every Clncinnatus from the plow to be measured. "Just step behind this tree, and let's see if you belong to the union, psn-dner," will replace: "How's craps'" as a greeting. And woe be unto him who re fuses to disrobe. Barred by Party Chairman. The idea is being taken seriously in many localities, but the Republican and Democratic campaign committees stead fastly refuse to incorporate it Into their platforms. Messrs. Ryan and Crummer, the respective state chairmen, argued to day hat the lengthening of the shirt might be a menace to the modesty of the entire Nation in the event of a light crop. "The supply might be used up prema turely, and we would then have to wear shirts without any tails at all during the Winter," they declared with manifesta tions of fright. Revision of the tariff was the iEsue which led to the flaunting of the shirt tall throughout the state. Colonel W. A. Harris, Democratic candidate for Gov ernor, favored tariff reform with vigor In his letter of acceptance. The editor of the Karmer's Advocate.. In commenting upon Colonel Harris' words, calculated that the addition of one Inch to the shirt tails of the Nation would consume the en tire cotton crop and prevent any exporta tion. The argument ran up and down the Mate like wild tire, and Is now upon every farmer's Hps. It has not, however, the sanction of Governor Hoch, whose private secretary, Charles Sessions, said for him: "This Issue of the shirt-tall seems to be about the limit." entine Portland, which went ashore near Hueneme Point during a heavy fog last night.

Each House Passes Different Meas ure to Abolish Both. WASHINGTON, June ID. The recent failure to convict the beef packers In Chicago of conspiracy upder the Inter state commerce law. because of the claim of immunity set up by them and sus tained by the court, has given Congress no end of anxious moments with a view to enacting some law that will remedy the defects from which the Government suffered by reason of Judge Humphrey's decision. The Senate passed a bill on the subject which the House also passed. Inserting an entirely new bill alTer the enacting clause. It will now go to con ference. The House bill follows the lines laid down by Attorney-General Moody in the packers' case. Kxplalning the provisions of the House measure, L.ittlefield said: "The House bill provides that immunity j snail be granted only to natural persons who testify on oath In some proceeding authorized by the statutes or In obedi ence to a eubpena to produce evidence, documentary or otherwise, and establishes a dellnite legal standard, by virtue of which it can be determined by a public record when and to whom Immunity has been granted. It also confines immunity to witnesses on the part of the Govern ment. Under It the Government will know when It Is conferring; immunity and the witness will know Just when he is protected in making an Incriminating statement." NO HOPE FOR BARKENTINE.
