V THE 3I0RNIXG OREGONIAN. TUESDAY, MARCH 3. 1908. SELECT MM FOR BRISTOL'S PUCE Oregon Delegation Meets To ' night to Settle District Attorneyship. BRISTOL TO HAVE HELP Bonaparte Authorizes Employment of Assistants to Handle Arrears of Business In Response to Long Telegram. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wai!h lnxton, March 2. Senator Fulton today notified the Oregon Congressmen that there would be a meeting of the delega tion at his rooms tomorrow evening to elect and recommend another man for District Attorney. Senator Bourne could rot be found, but will be notified in time to be present. Since the announcement was made that T. J. Cleeton would not be appointed, neither Mr. Fulton. Mr. Hawley nor Mr. Ellis has received a single application for this appointment. It appears as though good men do not care to risk their reputation In going after thl doubtful honor. The Attorney-General said today that he had authorized District Attorney Bristol to appoint two assistant district attorneys for temporary service. Judge Wolverton having certified that there is immediate need for their assistance in clearing up accumulated matters. Both assistants will be retired when the affairs of the office are straightened out. Mr. Bristol's application for authority to appoint two assistants was contained In a "24-word lelegrrfm to the Attorney General, which led the Department to inquire what manner of man is about to retire. There Is a suspicion that Mr. Bristol, piqued at hjs inability to collect old expense accounts, took this means to make the Government spend its money. WILL GET DOWN TO BUSINESS Bristol to Clean Up Docket and May .Try Land Cases. United States Attorney Bristol yester day received instructions from Washing ton Immediately to proceed with the work of the Federal Court In this state. The orders came direct from United States Attorney-General Bonaparte and will be compiled with. In the Vnlted States Court this morning Mr. Bristol will aalc Judge Wolverton to call a grand Jury to gether at once and to assemble a petit jury as soon as indictments can be re ported by the former. This means 'that the Federal Court in Portland will again be in full operation in about two weeks. Accompanying the orcter to resume activities in the Government's prosecut ing branch here were Instructions author izing Mr. Bristol to appoint two assistant United States Attorneys." This morning Mr. Bristol will also announce the ap pointment of his assistants. While ad mitting last night that he had made his selections. Mr. Bristol would not give out the names for the reason that the men he wanted had private business in terests to consult and would be Unable to decide on accepting the proffered posi tion until this morning. It is surmised that Walter H. Evans will be one of the appointees. It will he the Intention of Mr. Bristol first to clear up the large number of cases that have accumulated on the Federal docket. There are not less than a score of criminal cases awaiting Investigation by a grand Jury and many of the accused are incarcerated In the Multnomah County Jail In default of required bonds. Among the first cases that will be taken before the grand Jury will be that in which R. H. Wells, S. N. Saylor and Frank Cavlness. who had their prelim inary examination yesterday before Unit ed States Commissioner Slatten, are charged' with using the mails for fraudu lent purposes. It la considered more than probable that Mr. Bristol will be instructed to pro ceed with the trial of the 33 pending land fraud cases when he has disposed of the minor criminal and civil business In his court. This Is regarded as more than certain since Tracy C. Becker, special assistant to the United States Attorney, who is now in California, has announced that his work in California will not per mit htm to return to Oregon In time to take charge, of these cases, as had been arranged, on April 13 next, when they are scheduled to be taken up. This announce ment from Mr. Becker la considered es pecially significant, coming as it does . simultaneously wtth the news from the Attorney-General that Mr. Bristol is actively to assume the duties of his of fice. Mr. Bristol said last night that he had not been adivised officially aa to the pend ing land-fraud cases and his relation to them. His instructions from Washing ton are understood to direct a disposition of all pending cases aside from those that have been delayed because of the ab sence of Francis J. Heney. But he did intimate that, if it was the intention of the Department of Justice that he should prosecute these cases and he was ordered to do so. he would not hesitate to assume the responsibility. Further significance attaches to the action of the Attorney-General on the very eve of the meeting of the Oregon delegation to consider recommending an other randidate permanently to succeed Mr. Bristol. It is taken unmistakably to indicate that the problem of selecting Mr. Bristol's successor Is no nearer solved tlian It was before Congress met and that an umlerstanding probably has been reached by which the Incumbent of the office Is to be retained indefinitely. Other wise. It Is argued. If it were to be a matter of only a week or two before the delegation should select a candidate favorable to the President, the Attorney General would not be apt to direct Mr. Bristol to assume undisputed possession of the office and appoint two assistants. It Is believe by a great many that Mr. Bristol, by keeping Quiet and holding his own counsel, coupled with the inability of the delegation to agree on his suc cessor, has prevailed against a determined effort to opst him. Some even consider that the same conditions may keep Mr. Bristol in the office for some time. Pecide on District Attorneyship. WASHINGTON. D. C. March 2,-The Oregon delegation has arranged to hold a meeting tomorrow evening to take ac tion in the District Attorneyship matter. None of the members will indicate his preference among the many candidates for the place or predict the outcome of the meeting. Hitchcock's Trial March 10. NEW TORK. March S.

Not Going to Find North Pole, but for Scientific Study Follow Drift of Ice. SALT LAKE CITY, March 2. Captain Roald Amundsen, the discoverer of the Northwest passage, expects to spend the next five years in drifting from the Pa cific to the Atlantic through the Polar channel. In an Interview with the Tele gram today he said: "I will have a strong little vessel but little larger than the GJoa, in which I made the passage. I expect to have most of my old crew with me. Mine will be a purely scientific expedition and the search for the North Pole will not be its object. The discovery of the North Pole would be of absolutely no importance or use to the world. "I am going to study the ocean cur rents of the great unexplored waste north of Bering Straits, to measure the speed and movements of 4he ice-drift pack, take deep-sea soundings and study meteoro logical conditions. I expect that the drift of the ice will take us over the North Pole or in reaching distance of it. From my observations made on the former voyage, I think it will .take about five years to drift from the Pacific to the Atlantic."

INFLUX FROM INDIA Emigration Agents Turn Atten tion From Japan, OLD FIELD MOT PROFITABLE Nippon Authorities Themselves Op posed to Being Represented by , Inferior Class of Coolies and Will Enforce Restrictions. TOKIO, March 2. Information reach ing Tokio in a roundabout way from India Indicates that the steamship and emigra tion companies are now turning their attention to India, emigration from Japan having been cut off by Japan's voluntary action. It is stated that a very large number of laborers from India are taking passage from Hongkong to Vancouver. A .first installment of these Is said to be going by the steamship Monteagle. So far as the Japanese authorities are concerned, every day there is additional evidence of the determined attitude of the government. Emigration to Hawaii, Canada, Mexico and America actually stopped pending the final conclusion of the negotiations with the United States and only certain classes will be allowed entrance to American ports. The delicate question f Japanese pres tige has been comfortably settled by the reiteration from headquarters and from leading men who have influence in Japan that injury to the prestige of the country comes in much greater degree from per mitting the emigration of an undesirable class of coolies who misrepresent the na tion abroad, than from any emigration or Immigration restrictions placed by Amer ica or Japan Itself. NOT IN PORTUGUESE WATERS Exact rosltlon of Vessel Sustains Claim or China. VICTORIA. B. C, March 2. An in terview published in the Hongkong Telegraph, received in today's mail, witn A. J. Bast, a Portuguese attor ney representing the consignees of the firearms on board the seized Japanese steamer Tatsu Maru, is interesting with regard to the statement made in yesterday's Pekin dispatch that the steamer was seized in Portuguese waters. The Pekin dispatch says the Portuguese minister supported the contention of the Japanese minister that the vessel was seized In Portu guese waters. Mr. Bast said: "Following the seizure of the steam er off Point Cabrltta report was made to the harbormaster at Macao, who deputized his assistant. Second Lieu tenant Garclas Venture, to ascertain the' exact- position of the Tatsu Maru. On the following day Lieutenant Ven ture, with a chart and accompanied by representatives of Kwong Vo. steamed to the vessel at Point Cabritta. True enough, he found that the steamer was beyond Macao waters. AVERSE TO JAPS AS CITIZENS Wholesale Obejctions Raised by Peo ple of British Columbia. VANCOUVER, B. C March 2.

CHICAGO, March 2. An amendment to the Sherman anti-trust law exempting la bor unions and agricultural associations from being held liable for damages as a result of strikes, boycotts and the "un fair list" was demanded yesterday by ohe Chicago Federation.

The question was referred to the execu tive board with Instructions to obtain from ever local union affiliated with the federation suggestions as to ways and means of obtaining the desired amend ment to the Sherman anti-trust law.

The jury , found that the defendants had refused to de liver coal to D. J. Sharp, a Salt Lake dealer, presumably because Mr.' Sharp had made a 'cut of 50 cents In the retail price.
