before midnight. About two whole sec

between 15,000 and 20,600 sacks. Intelli
gence of these two fires and the re
markable coincidence was suppressed by
the officers of both corporations because
of the suspicion naturally aroused by
the two catastrophes occurring at pre

neither corporation will commit themselves.
FLOCKING OVER BORDER
Defense Kxpecta to Demolish Brad
ley Bomb Story, but State Has
Strong Rebuttal Evidence
at Its Command.
BOISE, Idaho,' July 4. (Special.)
It has been announced by the attor
neys for the defense In the Haywood
case that they will put Charles H.
Moyer on the stand. There have been
persistent rumors that Moyer was
likely to "squeal." These have been
heard from time to time, even before
the trial began. It has been specifical
ly denied by the attorneys for the
prosecution that they have knowledge
of any such desire on Moyer's part,
while Haywood's lawyers laugh at the
suggestion. The announced purpose
of the latter to put him on the stand
shows their confidence In his loyalty
.to their cause. Haywood is also to
go on.
Moyer will take the stand as soon
as a number of minor witnesses shall
have testified and the affidavits In
the Bradley mater are Introduced.
These minor witnesses may finish up
tomorrow. The Bradley affidavits will
then come on Saturday and Moyer may
reach the stand before the week ends.
. ' Did Bomb or Gas Hit Bradley.
It li maintained by the defense that
the Bradley affidavits and others se
cured In San Francisco will demolish
the story told by Orchard of having
. blown the mining man up with a bomb,
these affidavits showing the explosion
was caused by Ras. The state, on
the other hand, does not fear that
showing. It also has affidavits and
will have other rebuttal testimony on
that matter.
It is the general Impression that the
defense will get through Tuesday, but
that will be governed by the extent of
the cross-examination of Haywood and
Moyer. If these go at length Into all
the features of the ease on their direct
examination, the cross-examination may
be extended, but it Is Intimated that the
state will not pay much attention to
them. After the defense rests, the stale
will make a motion to strike out much
of the testimony introduced in behalf -of
Haywood unless In the meantime It Is
connected up. That motion may con
sume some time, but the Judge may be
prepared to rule on It without a long
argument.
Strong Rebuttal Evidence.
The rebuttal by the state Is likely to
prove very strong. It is stated that It
will have several good witnesses from the
Coeur d'Alenes to show where Orchard
was on the day of the destruction of the
Bunker Hill & Sullivan mill, demolishing
the two . Mull an men on that point.
Other features of the testimony for the
defense as to Coeur d'Alene matters will
also be attacked, and It Is said, there will
be a general exposure of some of the
witnesses.
It is supposed the rebuttal will occupy
about a week, so there is hope that the
case will get to the jury about July 20.
The last witness on the stand will be
Harry Orchard. He will be put on in
rebuttal to contradict certain statements
made by witnesses for the defense. James
McParland will also be on, as will George
W. Rlddell, the detective who was so
long in the councils of the union at Tel
luride, Colo., and Eureka, Utah.
Japanese Violate Immigration Law
by Coming Through Mexico.
MEXICO CITY, July 4. Two hundred
and seventy-five Japanese landed at
Santa Crux yesterday. The Japanese,
like most of the others that land In
this country, are headed for the coal
mines In the district of Las Ksperanza.
Joseph Z. Strand, a Chinese immigra-r
lion Inspector stationed at El Paso,
who arrived In this city today, stated
that Japanese are flocking to the bor
der In great numbers and buying tick
ets from Juarez through to Canada, In
order to enter the, United States, In
violation of the recent provisions of
the Immigration law, which closed the
border to these Immigrants. Instead
of going to Canada, it is stated, many
stop at convenient points In the Uni
ted States. .
ITO CALLS DOWN EMPEROR
Holds. Him Responsible for Corean
Delegation to The Hague.
SEOUL, July 4. Marquis Ito, at the
palace yesterday, interrogated the Em
peror regarding the presence at The
Hague of a deputation seeking recogni
tion of the claim that Japan has broken
its pledge to maintain Corean indepen
dence. The Emperor denied having any
knowledge of the deputation or Its ac
tion, whereupon Marquis Ito remarked:
"It is not necessary to inquire who Is
responsible for the deputation, as Its
actions are self-explanatory and the
whole world Is . in possession of the
facts."
In an Interview with a correspondent
of the Associated Press, Marquis Ito
said that the attempt being made at The
Hague to connect Corean affairs with
the San Francisco question would mis
lead no one. The Intrigues of the
Corean court, he added, were continuous.
The reported facts that the peace con
ference had not recognized the deputa
tion and that no one had requested to
see its credentials showed the ignorance
of the outside world regarding this latest
move of the Corean court, but the Em
peror's persistence In such intrigues con
stituted a hostile action against the Jap
anese which must be stopped.
Fire in Flooded Wheat Field.
BAKERSFIELD, Cal., July 4. This
morning the flood waters In the rich re
claimed wheat lands in Jhe lower part of
Kern County, caused yesterday by the
breaking of the Buena Vlata Lake levee,
continued to spread and rise unabated,
and all ' resistance against their progress
Is impossible until the auxiliary levee
being constructed at the San Emedlo road
ii complete and the waters reach that
point. The break In the levee has
widened continually, and it is reported
that the entire levee is doomed. Coinci
dental with the break In the levee yes
terday was the breaking out of two
large fires in the grain fields-of Miller &
Lux, nearly 20 miles distant from the
lake.
After burning all 8ay the fires were
DAMAGE NOT DONE BY MOB
San Francisco Will Say Individuals
Wrecked Restaurant.
BAN FRANCISCO, July 4. Referring to
the suit brought yesterday against the
city In behalf of the proprietors of the
Japanese restaurant and bath-house al
leged to have been wrecked by a mob on
May 23. Assistant City Attorney Baggett
said:
"The defense of the city will be that
whatever injury was done to the prop
erty of the .Japanese was done by two
or three persons before a mob, in the
sense of the law, had formed. The city
will also claim that there was no riot,
but will lay great stress upon the con
tention that the damage, was done by a
few persons before It was possible for a
mob to have collected."
United States Attorney Devlin has re
ceived a letter from Attorney-General
Bonaparte asking him to make an inves
tigation and report Immediately on the
action of the San Francisco officials In
refusing to grant licenses to employment
agencies conducted by Japanese.
Ho at once began the investigation
arid will make his report as soon as
possible.
Still Carries Chip on Shoulder.
TOKIO, July The representation
made by the Japanese Consul at San
Francisco to the municipal authorities of
that city in regard to the action of the
latter in refusing to renew the licenses of
Japanese employment agencies has not
yet been replied to. This affair Is con
sidered here as being of far graver char
acter than the attacks upon Japanese res
taurants and similar anti-Japanese Inci
dents In San Francisco, as it Is held that
It concerns the lasting personal rights of
Japan. The reply of the San Francisco
authorities to the Consul's representation
is being awaited with considerable impa
tience. Pending this reply no official ac
tion has yet been taken by the Tokio
government.

HOW
TO GET PEACE
-Nelidoff Tells Americans Arbi
tration Is Way.
DECLARES CZAR'S POLICY
General Arbitration Treaty Will Ad
vance Limitation of Armaments.
Agreement Near on the Re
striction of Mines.
THE HAGUE, July 4. President
Nelidoff, of . the peace conference, to
day roceived Miss Anna Eckstein, of
Boston, Mass., who presented a peti
tion signed by over 2,000,000 Ameri
cans in favor of a general arbitration
treaty.
M. Nelidoff congratulated her on the
number of signatures and said the
petition was in the right direction, for.
If any limitation of armaments was
possible it would have to be done
through arbitration. Russia, he con
tinued, had not renounced her original
programme, but to carry it out it was
necessary to have recourse to arbi
tration. The development of interna
tional law and international courts
must be dictated by a full understand
ing between the states and people, the
furtherance of mutual good will and
love of Christ.
The conference, M. Nelidoff said,
would discuss whether it should meet
periodically, but he did not believe that
the present conference would arrive at
a decision on the subject.
Robert Treat Paine, president of the
American Peace Society, who was
present at the interview between M.
Nelidoff and Miss Eckstein, said that
it assumed great importance owing to
the fact that it occurred on the Fourth
of July, which he considered to be a
good omen.
The subcommittee ' on the bombard
ment of harbors, laying of mines, etc.,
met this afternoon, Dr. Hagerup (Nor
way) presiding. He summarized the
propositions presented and proposed
that the committee take up the British
proposition prohibiting the laying of
floating mines as a basis for discus
sion. After statements from several of
the delegates. Captain Ottley, R. N.,
Great Britain, declared that the
British government would accept the
Italian and Japanese amendments, per
mitting the laying of floating mines,
on condition that they are provided
with some apparatus which would
render them inoffensive after the ex
piration of a certain, period. Italy
proposes that the same rule be applied
to fixed mines, so as to render them
useless if they break adrift.
DEMANDS MACLEAN'S LIBERTY
Britain Urges Sultan to Act Gener
al's Valorous Deeds.
' LONDON. July 4. The British govern
ment has demanded of the Moroccan gov
ernment that prompt steps be taken to
secure the release of General Sir Harry
McLean, commander of the Sultan's
bodyguard, who was captured by Ral
suli. the bandit chief. -
No uneasiness is felt here, about the
safety of General McLean, but it Is be
lieved that with so powerful a personage
as a hostage Ralsull will drive a hard
bargain with the Sultan.
MacLean's handsome daughter Is cred
ited with having great Influence with the
Sultan. In fact, she Is styled "the Em
press of Morocco."
MacLean is the commander-in-chief of
the Moorish army, has a splendid palace
in Fez and gets a salary of $35,000 a year.
He became a Mohammedan manv years
ago and virtually a Moor. His deeds of
valor have been numerous, ut his great
est achievement was when his patron.
Sultan Mulaj, died of fatigue during a
campaign against some turulent tribes.
MacLean concealed the death, carrying
the corpse in a gorgeous golden litter un
til he reached the capital, where he smug
gled the body In through a hole In the
wall and then met and proclaimed the
new Sultan. MacLean knew that news
of the death of Mulaj would be the signal
of a military revolt which would result
In an enemy of his being placed on the
throne.

Nigra Gives Emperor's Version of
Franco-German War.
ROME, July 4. Much interest has
been aroused in this city by the pub
lication of extracts from the unpub
lished memoirs of Constantino Nigra,
dean of the Italian diplomats, whose
death was announced two days ago.
Count Nigra records a conversation he
had with Emperor "William I at Ema in
1876.
. The Emperor related to Count Nigra
the events which were the direct cause
of the Franco-Prussian war. The
French Ambassador, he said, after the
withdrawal of the Hohenzollern candi
dature to the throne of Spain, demand
ed William's assurance that this candi
dature would not be again proposed.
This the Emperor refused and notified
the Ambassador that he could not re
ceive him again. The same day Bis
marck sent a dispatch to all the Prus

dents. "The French government," the Em
peror continued to Count Nigra, "con
