INJUNCTION PLANK IS HIS Builder, of Declaration Makes Fur ther Answer to Charge of Retreat. Roosevelt Approved All but Eulogy of Himself. COLUMBUS, Ohio. June 23. The reply of Attorney-General Ellis to the criticism of Mr. Bryan on the Republican National rlatform has suggested a further ques tion as to how the anti-injunction plank hs finally adopted came to be written. Upon this point Mr. Kills made this state ment tonight: "The anti-injunction plank as finally adopted was written by the frionds of Secretary Taft on the sub-committee on resolutions and was approved by the Sec retary and President before it was pro posed as a substitute for the' original plank on this subject. In fact every plank and practically every sentence in the Republican platform as finally adopt ed was approved by the Secretary, al though those portions referring particu larly to the work of the administration, were not submitted to the President. Even the unimportant verbal changes between the draft as published before the convention and as finally adopted by the convention were made with the Sec retary's knowledge before the tentative draft was submitted to the committee. "This statement is made in order to make clear the fact that the Republican platform contains no sugsasUoa. r- v re treat from the Roosevelt policies, stands squarely by the progressive principles of the party and was adopted because It had the emphatic approval of the party's candidate." FIGHT IS OVER PLATFORM lows Republicans Will Hold State Convention Today. "WATERLOO, la., June 23. Chief In terest in the Republican State Convention here tomorrow does not lie in the nomi nation of a state ticket but in the adop tion of a state platform. The nominations were all determined by the primaries, save in the case of the Supreme Judges, and for these nominations there is no contests. The fight is between the pro gressives and the "stand-patters" upon the issue of the indorsement of the adminis tration of Governor Cummins and the anti-pass, direct-primaries and other laws adopted by the last Legislature, also the incorporation of the radical planks that were not included in the National plat form. The "standr-patters" seem willing; to permit a very mild indorsement of the, Cummins administration, but say they will fight anything that reads as if it were enthusiastic. Many of them also op pose specific approval of progressive legislation. GEORGIA IS AGAINST BRYAN Democratic Delegation Almost Unit and Will Oppose Him. ATLANTA, Ga., June 23. At a meeting of the Georgia delegates to the Demo cratic National Convention at Denver, it was decided to apply the unit rule to the delegation. Jt became apparent at the meeting theft practically the entire delegation was ojposed to the candidacy of William J. Bryan and that Georgia's vote would be cfcst for some other candidate.

The Pioneer Press tomorrow morning will print an interview with Baron Kaguj-a Takahashi, who has been investigating the Japanese situation in the United States and Can ada for the Mikado's government. The interview was obtained last night at Crookston. Minn.. In the interview the Baron says: "It is the desire of the Japanese gov ernment thoroughly to understand the position of Americans on the Japanese question. The government well realizes that certain of its citizens have been the causes of disturbances on this side of the Pacific which at once have shaken the evenness of localities and disturbed our government, too. "It is not my intention to reveal the Information I have received or the con clusions I have drawn, but my report will state to the Japanese government that the collection of Japanese immi grants In the cities of the Pacific Coast is detrimental to friendly relations be tween these two countries and la actual ly, in some cases, an intrusion as far as concerns the Americans who labor on the liberties and rights of the people who already Inhabit this country. "Therefore, my report will advise that Immigrants reaching the coasts of Amer ica be compelled to have in reserve suf ficient money to take them across the Rocky Mountains and Into the agricul tural regions of the Middle West." Women's Clubs in Convention. . BOSTON, June 23. Welcomed by the executive heads of the state, the city and the State Federation of Women's Clubs, the three thousand or more dele gates who have gathered in Boston from all over the country to attend the ninth biennial convention of women's clubs filled Symphony Hall to over flowing tonight and. formally opened the convention, which is to be In ses sion until July'l. The San Francisco delegation has begun a canvas for the selection of San Francisco as the meeting place In 1909. WILL RECOVER MUCH LAND GOVERNMENT HOPES TO MAKE HYDE-BENSON TRIAIi PAY. While Trial of Cases Has Cost $48f 360, the Nation Will Get Back Land Worth $1,000,000. WASHINGTON, Juno 23. In a state ment Issued today in regard to the land conspiracy cases which resulted yesterday in the conviction of Frederick A. Hyde and Joost H. Schneider, and the acquittal of John A. Benson and Henry P. Dimond, Assistant Attorney-General A. B. Pugh, declares that while the trial of these four men has cost the Government $48,360, the beneficial results to the Land Department in the future ' administration of public land laws are beyond calculation. The net results, he says, will be the restora tion to the Government of more than 100, 000 acres of public lands, valued at $1,000, 000. Mr. Pugh says: The verdict In the c&ae la not at all (rtranpe. under all the circumstances, to one who fully understands the situation, and so far as prac tical results to the land Department are concerned, all has been accomplished that would have been accomplished by a verdict against all four defendants. While the investigation leading up to the Indictment and trial and the trial Itself have cost the Government a great deal of money, the benefit resulting1 to the Ld.nd De partment In the future administration of the land laws Is simply incalculable. The last vestlg'e of the conolpracy which originated on the Pacific Coast about ten years ago now has been utterly destroyed and It is not likely that other similar schemes will again be attempted. As a net result there will be restored to the Government something over 100,000 acres of public land- which were selected under the fraudulent practice charged in tne Indict ment In this case. The selections have been under suspension since November, 1002, await ing the trial of the case. The selection will now be taken up . and adjudicated by the Land Department. The value of the J and has very greatly In creased since Its selection eight, nine and ten years ago, so that the 100,000 acres or more immediately involved In the trial are probably now worth from $8 to $10 art acre. Patents were secured for something like 40,000 acres of public land before the fraud was discovered, which was in November, 1902. Suits have been instituted by the De partment of Justice for the recovery of this land and will now be prosecuted to final conclusion. Insofar as the land has not passed into the hands of Innocent purchasers n win De recovered, it is not likely, how ever, that as to a great many of the pat ented lands the titles may now be In the hands of Innocent holders and therefore be yond recovery. Altogether there were 108 witnesses in the case. Mr. Pugh today received con gratulatory telegrams on the successful outcome of the trial from Francis J. Heney, former Interior Department offi cials and others prominently identified with the case. The prosecution was con ducted by District Attorney Baker and Mr. Pugh. HELIE AND ANNA MUST WAII Can't Be Married In England I'ntil . Two AVeeks Pass. LONDON, June 23. Prince Holla de Sa gan spent this morning In making a tour of the regtetery offices In an endeavor to discover means by which his marriage with Mme. Anna Gould could be carried out without the delay, which, under the law of England, usually' accompanies such ceremonies. At all the registry offices, he got the same response, namely, that the only means recognized by the law to avoid a fortnight's residence here before marriage, is the special license that can be issued only by the Archbishop of Can terbury. As Mme. Gould is divorced, it is not believed that this license can be ob tained. The couple were hopeful that the wed ding could take place at the end of thi3 week, but the authorities declare that this la Impossible without a special li cence. Prince Helle is reported to have renounced Catholicism in order to marry Mme. Gould. It is declared that after the wedding the couple will retire to the Ger man estate of the prince.

Plan Outlined by Whitney L. Boise and Meets With General Ap proval of Members. "What the meeting of the Realty Board last night lacked in point of attendance was made up in interest, for several im portant subjects were presented at the session. Whitney L. Boise told the board what he had evolved In the way of a scheme to have the members of the or ganization form a company with the ob ject in view of placing tracts of land on the market. He advised the formation ot a stock company which would assume ownership in tracts of land In Oregon suitable for all sorts of market-gardening, fruit-raising, small farming, dairy ing and various other uses to which fer tile lands may be put, and that efforts be made In conjunction with promotion or ganizations to Induce Immigration and settlement of these lands. In the plan outlined he suggested that the company have an agent whose duties should embrace showing intend ing buyers over the lands controlled by the company, and that every In ducement in reason be offered the new comer to locate. The tracts selected would be cut up Into lots of five, ten and twenty acres and terms of payment made as reasonable as good business judgment could dictate, and as mem bers of the Realty Board would be the stockholders in the enterprise, all the leading realty men of the city would be Interested in disposing of the lots. The board was so well pleased with the scheme outlined that it appointed a committee of five to confer with Mr. Boise and formulate a plan of organization. E. L. Thompson reported from the clvio improvement committee that several con ferences had been held with the Mayor and members of the Council regarding the employment of R. H. Thomson, of Seattle, and also on the construction of Vista ave nue, on Portland Heights. Several obsta cles had been encountered, but the com- ; mittee was hopeful of accomplishing tho work which they had set out to do. The board voted to take up again the holding of excursions to near-by places, the next one to be selected during the week, members to bo notified In due sea-' son. f Progress wa3 reported by the committee on the proposed realty exchange, and W. ; A. Spanton was appointed on the com-1 mittee to fill a vacancy. Ralph Ackley was elected a member of the board. State Weak in Murder Cae. i COQUILLE. Or.. June 23. (Special.) !
