KILLS IN SELF-DEFENSE JAPAXF.SE MCTtDERS COUNTRY MAN' AT GRESHAM. Laborer Shoots When WHh Friends He Is Attacked With Gun and Ax Surrenders Himself. Defending himself against the- murder ous attack of a man who was armed with a loaded revolver and an ax. Mitsu Jiro Hashimoto, a Japanese laborer, fchot and killed S. Shlmiiu. another Japanese, on the farm rented by J. Callahan, one half mile west of Gresham on the Sec tion Line road, yesterday evening, and Is now a prisoner in the County Jail fol lowing his voluntary surrender to Deputy Sheriff Emory, of Gresham. From the evidence at hand it appears to be clear that Shlmiau met his death In the attempt to kill friends of Hashi moto. When the latter came to their assistance and disarmed Shlmiiu when about to shoot, he was forced to turn to his own defense from an attack by Shlm Ieu, who picked up an ax and started In to chop the peacemaker to bits. The tragedy occurred In a little wooden ahack near the farmhouse, where Hashi moto and five other Japanese employed digging potatoes were quartered. The place Is only 12 by 14 feet In dimensions. Shlmiau. who Is said to be a gambler, lived In one of the Japanese lodging houses In Portland. He pretended to have some - claim against two fellow workmen of Hashimoto. This claim, ac cording to these men. had been settled, but several days ago Shlmiau went out to Gresham and, threatening them with a knife, made the men pay this claim again, so they said. - Yesterday the men. did not work In the late afternoon be cause, of the rain, and were all gatV red In their bunk-house when Shlmiiu came again. He entered the door and drew his revolver and threatened the lives of the Inmates if his money was not forth coming. Hashimoto, who waa disinter ested in the affair, sprang forward ami wrested the weapon from his grasp Just as he was taking aim. Infuriated at los ing his revolver, Shlmiau turned and, aeizing an ax. renewed the attack. Hash imoto and the other five were between Shlmiiu and the door. . Aa Shimlzu, with ax . upraised rushed at him, Hashimoto fired. Sheriff Stevens, with Deputy Sheriffs Leonard and Bulger, went to the scene to gather evidence. The body of the dead man waa brought to this city by Deputy Coroner Dunning, who announced that the Inquest would be held on Friday morning. . The officials believe that the prisoner will be exonerated. Shimlsu was 31 years old and Hashimoto is 36. Both are single. Hashimoto has been In Portland for two years. Prior to that he had lived in Hawaii for six years. GOING TO SUPREME COURT Mount Scott Annexation to Be Passed On by High Tribunal.

PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT PROUD OF THEIR GENERALSHIP. Ranks Show Members Possessing Qualities He Prises in Any Citizen. WASHINGTON, Oct. 14. At today's session of the convention of the Railway Signal Association, reports on signal prac tice. Inspection on rubber insulation and on standard design were considered. President Roosevelt received the delegates and also a party of railroad men. In a speech he said: "Just let me say one word of greet ing to the men representing the dif ferent railway associations who have come here. One of the honors that I have especially prized since I have been President has been my member ship in the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen, and while I never yet have found any body of my fellow citizens all of whose wishes I could meet while I was President. I am bound to nay that I think I have come nearer being able to feel that I ought to do what railroad, men ask than any one body that I have come In contact with while I have been President. It has baen my very great pleasure to work with you. I have felt that the railway men of the country showed to a peculiar degree certain qualities that I prize in any citizen the quali ties of nerve, hardihood, of capacity to obey and to obey like that (clap ping his hands together), and the ca pacity to take responsibility and as sume command when necessary. I would give nothing for the man who cannot obey when It Is necessary and cannot act on his own responsibility and assume command when it Is neces sary. Both qualities are needed." MEW RUCHINGS.
