JORDAN
STANDS
BYTHE FACULTY
Calls Stanford Students' Dem
onstration Organized
Revolt.
RADICALS LOSING GROUND
President Says Faculty Aims to Stop
Drunkenness Trustee Advises
Students to Seek' Change in
University Kulcs.
STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Ca 1 . ,
Marr-h -7- Tlie most Important de
velopment of the day in the student
situation was the issuance of a state
ment by President .Jordan, in which he
declares the parade was an organized
revolt against the authority of the
university. He upholds the action of
the committee, which he ' no pro
test can change. Dr. Jordan's statement
is as follows: .
The present difficulty at Stanford ITnl
Trnltv ha. had it origin in thf? effort of
ih university authorities, trwstee and
faculty, to rid the iriM tuition of the -burden
nri dlnjrrare of student drunkenness." The
student affairs committee Is the regularly
constituted disciplinary committee having
charge of thee matters and Its actions are
In accordance with definite instructions
from the academic council.
Calls Parade a Revolt.
Th demonstration of Marofc lrt was an
rrcanlzcd cxprewion of rervolt. primarily
cainttt the committee, but actually against
Ihe university itself. Jt was necessary tha
the offense should be mt squarely and detl
xiiiely. This the committee has done, and
the university will continue to carry out its
policy without reference to opposition or
protect.
It la a matter of regret that so many fine
ounjr men have been drawn into this mat
ter by a false idea of eotle;e spirit, the
tinder-currents in the affair not appearing
cn the surface and the moral issue being
obscured by sympathy for their fellows.
The president statement has not yet
been made public., but when it becomea
known it will have the effect of
utoppliiff any appeal for a reconsider
ation of the oase of the students dis
missed. lr. Jordan looks at the affair
from an entirely different viewpoint
from the students, ho there Is no pos
sibility of conciliation.
A committee of San Francisco alumni
consisting of P. B. Downing, Dr. A. B.
Spanldlng,' C. M. Flckert and -L. S.
Becdy. all of '9S, visited Dr. Jordan to
day and later interviewed Chairman
Clark of the student committee. Dr.
Jordan, who left tonight for Helena,
Mont., where he will remain until April
7. aid that the alumni merely sought
the facts in the case.
lias Not 250 Signers Yet.
Jn regard to an organized movement
on the part of the students to leave the
university, there were no further steps
taken, as this move was not to be car
ried out unless 250 students agreed
.upon It. The requisite number have
not yet signed the agreement.
The following telegram was received
Y President A. A. Murphy today from
li. K. Crothers of San Francisco, one
of the university trustees:
Should Get Rules Revised.
I confirm the statement that I advised
students at Stanford that there Is no ap
peal in Individual or specia4 cases to the
trustees. This was merely a statement of
fH mad in the hope, expressed at the
time, that the boys would direct all efforts
toward a reconciliation with the student
affairs committee.
The faculty is aetine under a written con
stitution and 'articles of Incorporation of
the faculty." Tf It Is defective, the trustees
and faculty will doubtless be a anxious to
remedy It as you, but In the past the trus
tees have refused to violate it in incitvtauat
rases, however Important. As an alumnus
T urge you, as men who sincerely believe
you are right, to remain and direct your
efforts toward the accomplishment of any
purposes you may have at heart In fl.n or
derly way and not to sacrifice younselves, to
no advantage to any one. The trust consti
tuting the charter of the university pro
ides that rules of discipline shall be just
and equitable. If they are not. and I do not
know anything in which they are not , so,
the trustees are expressly required to ' see
they are made so. 1 refer you to the articles
or organisation for the proper procedure in
sucli matters.
May Abandon Walkout.
This telegram, together with Dr.
Jordan's statement, shows that appeal
or protest Is equally useless in getting
the 41 men reinstated. In view of this
the abandonment of the plan of the
walkout seems wise. W hat the students
will do to carry out Mr. Crothers sug
gestion Is unknown. Already more
than J00 students have pledged them
selves to leave the university, but
since the meeting yesterday there has
been a distinct change of sentiment
and the radical element is in a min
ority. Many believe a promise to sup
port the signers of the parade petition
involves a moral obligation to go out
with them, but it is no longer believed
that this will influence the faculty.
Fenton Stands Firm.
Kenneth Fenton and his followers
still declare they feel they must leave
. whether the ?5A others agree to go or
not. but there Is an ever increasing
number believing that a promise to
support paraders does not extend to
walking out. If such action will accom
plish no good to those dismissed or to
Stanford. Thl faction is winning ad
herents by the argument that more can
he done to better conditions by remain
ing in the college and keeping up the
attempt to ' ecure another student
affairs committee.
The feature of overwhelming signifi
cance is the deep-roted feeling ex
pressed that the point haus been reached
where all hope of fair treatment at the
hands of the university authorities is
at an end.
t Portland Alumni Intercede.
The Stanford Club, of Portland, com
posed of former graduates of that in
stitution, held two meetings recently
and finally adopted a set of resolu
tions on the present strife existing
between the student body and the fac
ulty. The resolutions adopted and
sent to the university were as follows:
""Chairman of Student Affairs Committee,
Stanford University. California Portland
alumni have wired associated students their
condemnation of organized insubordination.
Stanford Club of Portland requests a re
consideration of punishments Imposed and
asks that leniency be extended leading to
reinstatement. -
CH EST BR G. MURPHY,
President Stanford Club.
President Aeeociated Students. Stanford
University. California The sentiment of the
Alumni of Portland is that the students
should subordinate themselves to the uni
versity regulations. That organized rebellion
against such meets with disapproval of the
alumni. We have wired the faculty com
mittee similarly and requested that the pun
ishments Imposed be reviewed and leniency
be extended leading to reinstatement.
CHTKR G. MURPHY. President.
FIGHTS SMELTING TRUST
PAXHAXDIiK SMELTER TO BE
OPENED AT PEXD D'OllEILLE.
Montana Mlncowncrs' Association
Takes Over Property and Will
. Soon Bo Smelting Ore.
HELKXA. Mont.. March 27. Officials
of the Montana Mineowners' Association
announced today that they have com
pleted arrangements to take over the
Panhandle smelter at Pend d"Orcille,
Idaho, near Sand Point. The associa
tion expects to be smelting ore within
30 days.
Jn their determination to secure lower
rates for smelting and refining than
those offered by the American Smelting
& Refining Company, the independent
operators decided that better and
quicker results coxild be secured by to
day's deal than by waiting to construct
a new smelter. The Pend d'Oreille
smelter was erected five years ago, but
was soon forced to close because of lack
of tonnage. For shipping facilities it has
the Great Northern, the Northern Pa
cific and the Spokane & International,
thft latter of which connects with the
Canadian Pacific. Officials of these
roads promise low rates, providing ship
ments can be secured.
WIFE ALSO A SUICIDE
Reported Dwig-ht's Helpmeet Could

IOS ANGBLES, March 27. According
to statements made today by friends of
Henry Hyde Dwight, thf Pasadena ar
chitect who ended his life with poison
last evening just as he was placed under
arrest for parsing worthless checks,
Dwight's wife, who died on March 17,
was also a suicide, although It was ex
plained at the time of her death that
she had succumbed to an attack of
nephritis, aggravated by wandering
through the canyons near Pasadena,
Those who appear beftt informed declare
today that Mrs. Dwight had taken bi
chloride of mercury after learning that
her husband was deeply involved in
financial transactions wherein he had
raised money by uttering worthless
checks and borrowing money from
friends and clients, JD wight, who was a
Harvard graduate and a member of the
Boston Society of Architects, is said to
have dissipated his wife's fortune of
J1'K),000 and all the money he had earned
since their marriage.

PAYS FOR HIS TALE
Chinaman Killed for Turning
State's Evidence.
SHOT DOWN IN THE STREET
Eng Mow, Lieutenant of ' Notorious
Mack Duck, Murdered as Result
of Recent Convictions Obtained
In Philadelphia and Boston.
NEW YORK, March 27. A street mur
der, which is believed to have been an
outgrowth of recent trials of Chinamen
for the murders in Boston and Philadel
phia, threw the local Chinese here into
intense excitement this afternoon. The
victim was Bng Mow, who, in the
troublous times of two years ago, was
known as a lieutenant of Mock Duck,
leader of the Hep Sing tong, and who
since the retirement of Mock Duck lias
been looked upon by many Chinamen as
the real, leader of his' faction.
Ever since the successful prosecution of
the Chinese murder trials in Boston and
Philadelphia there have been rumors
around Chinatown that some member of
the New York colony had inspired the
evidence which resulted In the .convic
tions. When the shooting occurred to
day it became noised about that Mow
was one of the men who had been under
suspicion in this connection.
Mow was walking down Mott street
when three Chinamen coming in the other
direction blocked his way. There was a
sharp, short argument, the flash and-re-port
of a shot, and a Mow collapsed and
fell dead to the sidewalk the three as
sailants fled.
A line of police was immediately
stretched around the entire district and
a house-to-house search for the murderers
was made. As a result of this search, Moy
Don Yuk and Wan Yon. both of whom
live in Mott street, were taken into custody.
INSANITY THE DEFENSE
STAY IX PROCEEDINGS AGAINST
STEVENS' SIiAYEK.
Accomplice Will Recover Sister
Wires to Hold Body Japanese
Consul Showing His Esteem.
SAX FTtANOSCO. March 27. I. W.
Chang, the Corean who shot and killed
D. W. Stevens, the American adviser to
the Corean Council of State, was ar
raigned before Police Judge Conlan to
day on a charge of murder. He was rep
resented by Nat Coghlan, who asked for
and was granted a continuance for pre
liminary hearing until next Friday morn
tag at 10 o'clock. His attorney Intimated
that no defense will be offered In the
Police Court, but that when the case
reaches a higher tribunal the battle will
be fought and an effort made to save
the accused Corean on tne ground or in
sanity.
Ming Woon Chun, the accomplice of the
accused man, is still in a critical concn
tion at the Lane hospital, but it is be
lieved lie will recover.
Mrs. Joseph 'Porter, a sister " of -Mr.
Stevens, who is expected to reach here
from the East on Saturday, has tele
graphed asking that the body be held
until, her arrival. It is expected that the
interment will be at Atlantic City.
The local Japanese Consul-General,
Chozo Koike, has received no official in
structions to participate In the funeral of
Stevens in his representative capacity, but
is doing everything in his power privately
to show the esteem in which he and his
countrymen held the diplomat.
Japan Mourns Stevens.
TOKIO, March 27. The Foreign Office Is
arranging a programme for funeral ser
vices for Durham W. Stevens in this city,
simultaneous with the obsequies in Amer
ica. There will undoubtedly be a larger
attendance at these services than at any
former funeral in Japan. The entire im
perial, diplomatic and foreign contingen
cy, it is expected, will be present upon
the occasion-, together with thousands of
Japanese. All the Coreens in Japan, in
cluding the Crown Prince, will attend.
Bishop Harris will probably return from
Seoul to deliver the eulcy.

to the State Department of Agriculture

teracy its prevalent. It 4s claimed that
during 1907 they sent to their native
homes savings estimated -at $300,000,000,
which, had they been informed of condi
tion in this country, would have re
manned and been invested here.
Through this traffic, the statement
says, about 200 illegal banks are being
operated in Greater New York, a large
proportion of them in direct violation of
the state -banking laws.
It is claimed in the statement that 55.000
former immigrant were induced to emi
grate from this country during the last
few months, carrying with them sums
variously estimated at from $150,000,000 to
$250,000,000. It Is contended that many of
them are now returning to this country
penniless to become public charges.
