nrE MOKMSG OREG0NIAV, SATURDAY, JULY 20, 1907. 5 CORUN. IS Af4GRY Peace Congress Visitor Talks of Abdication. CALLS IT JAPANESE INFAMY Some Dissatisfaction Noticeable on . Lack of Progress' at The Hague Meeting Panama Delegation Wants to Change Its Vote. THE HAGUE, July 19. The abdication ot the Emperor of Corea was the general topic of conversation among the delegates to the peace conference today. A major ity of them Inclined to the belief that, even if the Emperor had been dethroned. It should be considered an indispensable measure to give the Japanese a free hand In establishing a modern system for de veloping the resources of Corea. Ti Sang Sul. ex-Premier of Corea, who is here with the Corean delegation which was denied recognition by President Nell doff, after reading the dispatch announc ing the abdication, said: "It is another Japanese Infamy which 20,000,000 Coreans will soon avenge." One plenipotentiary, who is skeptical about the work of the peace congress, ob served: "The abdication of the Emperor ls-th only result yet attained by the confer ence." There Is some dissatisfaction notlceabla on the lack of progress by the congress, especially toward the British delegation, which by its noncommittal attitude dur ing the discussion not only delays the work but tends toward the retrogressve on most points. The Panaman delegation today informed President Nelidoff of Its desire to change Its vote of July 17 on the American prop osition regarding the inviolability of pri vate property at sea, favorable to the proposition. This action approved the proposition by a vote of 22 against 10. JAPANESE ACTION AN OUTRAGE Corea's American Emissary De nounces Oppression of People. NEW YORK. July 19. Declaring that the Japanese control over Corea is de bauching the Coreans and fast tending to the complete eradication of Corea as a state. Homer B. Hulburt, for many years engaged in educational work in Corea, is here today on a mission from Corea to bring to the attention of the United States government and the people of this coun try the conditions in Corea under the Japanese protectorate. Mr. Hulburt ar rived today upon the steamship Deutsch land with his family after a two months' Journey from Seoul. He said the sending of the Corean delegation to The Hague had been made a pretext of by Japan to force the abdication of the Emperor and so gain further control over Corea. Mr. Hulburt went to Corea over 20 years ago to engage in educational work at the re quest of the Corean government. , "Corea is thoroughly outraged," said Mr. Hulburt, "over the injustice which the Japanese are heaping upon her, and the Coreans are angered beyond words, still they feel the dread hopelessness of their position. The Coreans look upon the Japanese as savages. They are insulted and debauched, - but can do nothing. I have seen a Japanese boy rush out into the street and belabor a Corean gentle man with a stick and laugh. The Corean could do nothing, for protests to the Japanese would avail nothing. The Jap anese ihave seized their salt works, driv en away the Corean fishermen from their fishing grounds and taken every form of profitable industry in the country for themselves. The Coreans will tell you that the Japanese are striving to drive them i from the country that they may occupy it for themselves. Japan wants Corea for herself, and while the government at Tokio is openly declaring that Corea is open for the trade of the world, she is seeking by every possible secret act to aid her merchants by creating conditions which will drive every foreign merchant out of the country. "Japan is debauching the morals of the Coreans by selling them morphine in great quantities. Especially Is it true In Northern Corea." Mr. Hulburt said that the accession of the Crown Prince to the throne would mean no change for the better in the in tolerable conditions. Despair reigns at the Emperor's palace in Seoul, and while the Emperor, who hu now abdicated, desired to create Improved conditions for his people, he knew that he was utterly unable to do anything. Mr. Hulburt said the Emperor's last al most despairing- attempt was sending a delegation to The Hague to protest to the nations that the Japanese pro tectorate over Corea was illegal and that Corea had never acquiesced in her eelzure two years ago. The Crown Prince, who now suc ceeds to the throne, Mr. Hulburt said, is a perfect prototype of his father, a man of good education and a dispo sition to be fair and honest for the material well-being of his people, but somewhat lacking in those qualities 'of resoluteness and executive ability that differentiate a natural ruler of men from the complacent head of state whose only qualification for of fice la the right of birth. "Corea never consented to the Jap anese taking control of her territory," continued Mr. Hulburt. "The Japanese caused it to be reported to the powers that Corea had acquiesced In the pro tectorate, but that is not the fact, and it was to protest against this that the Emperor sent a delegation to The Hague. This led to Japan's bringing about the abdication. "The treaty between the United States and Corea, which Japan guar anteed to preserve, will not stand in the way of Japan's ambition to gain exclusive commercial mastery over Corea. Japan will effect a customs union with Corea, unless she Is checked, that will shut out all Indus trial competition. The aim of Japan today is to drive out American and British trade in Corea." REVOLT FAILS IN ECUADOR Rebels Attack Barracks at Guaja. ' quil, but Are Beaten. . GUAYAQUIL, Ecuador, July 19. The lour military barracks In this city were attacked simultaneously Just before ffay break this morning by groups of armed revolutionists who called themselves In dependents.

Under one of the rules adopted by the State Board of Normal School Regents, de signed to provide an uniform system of government for all of the normal schools of the State, operates to bar all members of the faculties of the several Institu tions, Including the president, who is the executive officer of the school, from ac cepting fees for delivering lectures at county and state teachers conventions and upon other occasions of an educa tional nature, which has been the source of considerable income to many of them aside from their salaries received from the state. It will also operate to abolish the time-worn custom of conducting Summer normal schools at the different institutions for private gain, as, here after such schools will be conducted un der the direct supervision of the State Board and all profits Inuring will re vert to the state normal school fund The Summer normal school which is being conducted at the Monmouth Nor mal this year, which has over 70 students under instruction in pedagogical work. Is carried on under the new system, the state employing the members of the fac ulty at a stipulated salary and whatever profits accrue will go into the state fund. The-Summer school at the Ashland Nor mal, however, Is a private enterprise, conducted by a member of the faculty for private gain and, while it is the sense of the State Board that this arrangement will be permitted to continue this year, the practice will have to be abandoned In future. The rule which works the greatest hardship upon the normal school instruc tors, however, and against which such a protest has been raised Is that which prohibits the performance of lecture work outside of their own school, during the school year of 10 months, and does not allow them to receive compensation for such service when rendered. Many of the Instructors in normal school work have been making from 1100 to J500 per year, aside from their regular salaries, for delivering lectures at county insti tutes, etc., and the new order of things will operate to a loss to them. As the rule is effective only during the school year, however, there Is nothing to pre vent them from earning extra money at Summer schools, Chautauquas, etc., dur ing the vacation period. This rule is modeled after the principle that the state pays the Instructors for their full time and the school la entitled to it.

HEAVY CATCH YESTERDAY Fish Are Large Ones, 75 Per Cent Going 25 Pounds Cold-Storage Plants Are Crowded Pack May Vet Be Large. ASTORIA, Or., July 19. (Special.) While the number of salmon In the river has been gradually increasing during the past few days, the first real run of the season commenced on this morning's tide and Is now In progress. The catches by all classes of gear between the mouth of the river and Tongue point averaged well, both this morning and afternoon, and some of the gilnetters are reported as getting as high as 1800 pounds to the boat. A peculiar feature Is that the fish continue large, fully 75 per cent of them weighing 25 pounds or over, each. They are of exceptionally fine quality and are what were known as the June salmon of a few years ago. As a result the great majority of them are going to the cold storage plants, which are crowded with work while the canneries are still run ning slack. There Is. however, every reason to believe that this run will be followed by a run of smaller fish and if so, with the greatly increased capacity of the canneries during the past few years, there is still time to put up a fair sized pack before the Beason ends. ROAD WOULD LOSE MONEY Manager Fuller Says Fare of 15 Cents to Oak Grove Is Just. 6ALEM, Or.'. July 19. (Special.) In an swer to the complaint of B. Lee Paget, on the part of the citizens and the Commer cial Club of Oak Grove, asking for a re duction of the fare between Oak Grove and Portland on the Oregon City branch of the Portland Railway. Light & Power Company, Manager F. I. Fuller, of the company, represents to the Railroad Com mission that a reduction of this fare, which is now IB cents each way, would operate as an injustice and great loss to the line. Mr. Fuller acknowledges the regular one-trip cash fare Is 15 cents, for the dis tance of 8.12 miles, and the special com mutation 20-trlp rate is $1.70, or at the rate of less than l cent per mile. This latter rate, however. Is without transfer privileges. He explains that If passengers from Oak Grove would pay the 10-cent fare to Golf Junction and thence into the city for 5 cents more, they would get the benefit of a ride to any part of the city on the city lines for 15 cents, or a round trip, covering a distance of SO miles, for 30 cents, Instead of 40 cents, as represent ed by the complainant. TOWN MAY GET MILK FACTORY Sufficient Cows About McMlnnville to Insure Condensing. M'MTNNVILLE. Or., July 19. (Spe cial. A mass meeting of considerable importance to the dairying Interests of this section was called at this place this evening to hear the report of the committee from the push club having in hand the proposition of the estab lishment of a milk condensej-y in this city. The committee reported that by a careful canvass they had ascertained that' there were 2861 cows being milked within a radius of 10 miles, and some 1500 In the vicinity of Sheridan and Willamina, whose product-would very naturally come here. Much en thusiasm was manifest at the meeting, and since the committee Is in cor respondence with interested parties, it seems evident that this enterprise will materialize. In the event of the es tablishment of a condensery here the farmers who have been interviewed promise an Increase of 40 per cent In their dairy herds. SAILORS' AGENT LOSES CASE Must Pay $1500 Fine for Participa tion in Recent Seamen's Strike. ABERDEEN, Wash., July 19. (Special.)

Crazed by long and excessive use of mor phine and Intoxicating liquors, Mrs. J. W. McConnaughy yesterday escaped from her husband and nurse at Yakima, while being taken to the State Insane Asylum at Medical Lake. She was fonnd at North Yakima, whither she, had fled with her 11-year-old son. Her confinement In the asylum will terminate the career of a strikingly beau tiful and talented woman, whose affairs resulted in one man's death and the financial ruin of her present husband, a former wealthy Seattle property owner. She was first known on Puget Sound as the wife of Lieutenant Hetherington, U. S. K., with whom she sailed for the Orient. Her escapades in Japan, result ing In her husband killing her lover and the naval officer's acquittal on the ground of the "unwritten law." was world-wlds talk for a long time. The divorce of the pair took place shortly after. Five years ago she married McCon naughy, treasurer of this county. The racetrack and her use of alkaloid and Intoxicants resulted in her downfall and the loss of her husband's money. He be came bankrupt and they moved to Yakima. SAVED $5000 TO THE FARMERS Graingrowers' Association Enabled to Buy Its Sacks Direct. PENDLETON, Or.. July 19. (Special.) President C. A. Barrett, of the Inland Graingrowers' Association, announces that in purchasing nearly half a million sacks direct from the importers, the as sociation has saved to its members, tak ing advantage of the opportunity, nearly $6000, or about 1 cent on the sack. There are also those who claim that by the entrance of this organization Into the field for the purpose of buying sacks, the price of the grain bags, -made by the regu lar dealers, was from 1 to 2 cents lower than what It otherwise would have been. Thus all the growers in the county-reaped the benefits of the organization. A meeting of the executive committee of the association will be held In this city this week for the purpose of per fecting the plans for the holding of wheat sales' days In Pendleton and Athena this year and compelling the buy ers to come and bid or, be content with what grain they can pick up on the out side. .An attempt was made to hold sales' days last year, but It was not very suc cessful, since the buyers refused to attend the sales and very few of the farmers could resist the temptation, when they were offered a fraction of a cent more per bushel than the market price, and therefore refused to keep their grain In the pool.
