9AN" FRANCISCO. March SI. (Special.)
Ixuis XV. Hill, president of the Great
Northern road, who Is at present at Iel
monte. declared in an. interview today
that the only subject considered by him
self and president E. H. Harriman. of the
Southern Pacific, at their recent con

of permitting the use by the Spokane.
Portland & Seattle Railroad of the Port
land terminals belonging- to the Northern
Pacific Terminal Company, the majority
Interest in which Is owned by the South
, crn Pacific.
He declares that the published state
ments that Harriman and himself con
sidered at their conference any question
of division of territory, or any agreement
to build or not to build new track, are
entirely without foundation. President
Hill said:
"My attention has been called to cer
tain articles relative to the scope and
result of a conference recently helri k
twee n , B. H. Harriman and myself at
eurnngame.
Only One Question.
"There was not considered at this con
ferenco any question of dlvlBinn of
rltory, any agreements to build or not to
build ny branch lines, or unv vihit
connected with , the general policy or
future action of any Interest represented.
The sub.lect of the conference was of a
purely local and not of general Interest.
"The simple facts are these: Mr. Har
riman and myself met by accident in
cuuuit-rn tanrornla. while each of us
waa on a vacation. There existed a con
troversy regarding the use of the Port
land terminals, belonging to the North
ern Paclflo Terminal Company, by the
Spokane, Portland & Seattle Railroad
v. ompany, which has Just recently com
menced operation. The Spokane. Port
land & Seattle desired an entrance Into
the terminals at Portland, the majority
interest in which Is owned by the South
ern Pacific. The terminal company de
sired to purchase of the Sonkan, -pt
land SeattU certain property which
ine miter uwned. for the purpose of en
larging and extending terminals. The
local representatives hari h-e. .,oki
agree upon the sale of. this property, and
the admission of the Spokane. Portland &
oeatue 10 me tannlnat facilities.
Much Progress Made.
"With a view of providing smn o-
rangement for co-operation In providing
necessary extensions and Improvements
to the facilities of the terminal company,
thd local representatives of the Southern
raciiir, Spokane. Portland & Seattle, an.
Northern Pacific were summoned to Call

Navy Department Puzzled as to How
to Obtain Funds for Knter

WASHINGTON, March SI. (Special.)
The Japanese cruisers Aso and Ijichi will
visit San Francisco about April 25. ac
cording to advices received at the Navy
Department. The two Japanese cruisers
are being utilized for training purposes.
nd carry 180 cadets. The ships are
under command of Admiral IJlchl. They
were captured during the Russo-Japanese
war. and were formerly called Bayan and
Varlag.
The entertainment of the Japanese
isitors is a serious problem. The Navy
Department has no special entertainment
fund, and the only thing that can be
done is to take a small amount from the
contingent fund. A certain sum has been
set aside for the purpose by Secre.tary
Meyer, but it is not enough to give the
Japanese sailors nearly as elaborate an
entertainment as the Japanese gave to
the sailors of the American fleet. After
lslting San Francisco the two cruisers
will go to Seattle.

Crazy Snake's Cunning Causes Dif

Indians In Hiding and
Good Indians Many.
PIERCE. Okla.. March 31. Reports that
Chitti Harjo (Crazy Snake) is hiding in
some secluded gulch In the Tiger Moun
tains, about six miles from here, were
confirmed today. Hie surrender. It was
said, might be expected within 24 hours.
Crazy Snake's inquiry as to protection
in case of surrender was not official, but
was communicated In a roundabout way
in keeping with the characteristic cun
ning of the man supposed to have sent it.
An Indian boy came to the home of Dr.
31. iv. McDhenny. at Brush Hill, six ir.iles
from here, on Monday night. He said
the old chief had suffered a slight gunshot
wound In his leg last Sunday, but was
able to move. The lad declared that the
lugitive wished to surrender If Dr. Mc
Dhenny would guarantee fair treatment.
Will Promise Fair Trial.
Then the messenger disappeared: leav
ing the physician to wonder how to reach
t-razy Snake with an answer. Since that
time, it is said, it has been the Inability
to find where to deliver his assurance of
safety that has prevented the surrender
of the chief.
Colonel Hoffman today called to his aid
a well-known and respected Creek of Che
cotah. John Thompson, a trusted friend of
crazy Snake. Thompson was given Colo
nel tiorfman s authority to promise the
Creek chief perfect security and a fair
trial if he would surrender. Colonel Hoff
man and his new scout then passed the
entire day searching for his hidintr nlace.
Detachments of troops and squads of dep
uties scoured tne country in every direc
tion, despite the rain and short rations.
but without result up to a late hour to
night.
"Good Indians" Now Abound.
A newspaper man, who made the trip
irom tienryetta found "good Indians

Indictment if three police officers
for misconduct In making night raids.
Indictment of a city street lnsnector
for theft from the city, and caustic
criticism of both the City Engineer's
office and the Police Department, were
developed by the final report of the
county grand Jury, submitted late
yesterday afternoon to Circuit Judge
"-.antenbein, at the conclusion of the
March grand Jury term.
Police Sergeant Joseph Kienlen and
two officers whose names are not vet
omciaiiy known are the ones to suf
fer Indictment because of shortcom
ings in the administration of Pnii
Department affairs. The technical
charge against them is that of tres
pass. George F. Bodman, street in
spector employed in the City En
gineer's office. Is the one to be indicted
for theft. He is charged specifically
with stealing ten sacks of coal from
the city.
Lax Methods .Are Charged.
"Lax methods in every particular,"
is the phrase which the Jurors apply
to City Engineer Taylor's office.
"Boisterous, indecent and unauthor
ized," are Just three among many ex
pletives used in designating the worlc
of Chief of Police Gritzmacher's moral
squad. As to the City Engineer's of
fice, it is set out that there is a
great waste of public materials and
it Is made clear that the one Indict
ment does not cover all the sins of
the office, although Bodman was the
only man who could be indicted., A
charge of wasting money in collect
ing evidence against the morally dere
lict is likewise presented against
Chief Gritzmacher's department.
It is certain that the terms of the
report and the indictment of three
policemen will put an end to the prac
tice of entering private premises with
out warrants of arrest. Since the in
vestigation of moral squad operations
was undertaken by District Attorney
Cameron and the grand Jury, opera
tions of that nature have been sus
pended by the police, pending develop
ments. The outcome leaves no room
for any further work of such an order,
and hereafter raids will not be con
ducted without full authority from the
courts in the way of arrest or search
warrants.

WASHINGTON. March 31. The situs.
tlon with which the leaders of the Houss

with ihe Payne tariff bill continues to
give the greatest concern at the White
House. It was said today that President
Taft had been directly appealed to by
Speaker Cannon and Representatives
Payne and DalzelL The tactics of the
Insurgents are worrying the leaders
more than they are willlnar tn nrimlt
and it is to bring these recalcitrants
into line that the President's aid has
been sought.
Break Faith With Taft.
It has been reported to Mr. Taft. ac
cording to current report, that the Insur
gents are not living up to the letter of the
verbal agreement they made with him at
the time of the fight against the House
rules. It is said the Insurgents pledged
themselves not to oppose the tariff bill if
the President would agree to keep hia
hands off the fight.

Republican representatives from the
wheat-growing states of the West have
submitted to the ways and means com

an additional provision to the draw
back seotion. Their principal conten

result In the manufacture of flour for
