' CHINA IS STILL HOLDING OUT. Rnssian Demands in Manchuria Have Not Yet Been Granted. TOKIO, June 13. The MainichI publishes a dlBpatch giving the alleged history of the Manchurian cecret treaty on the au thority of a Minister who said that China had refused to comply with the Russian demands, and that Planchou. acting Rus sian Minister, had wired to Europe that China had accepted. After the powers pro tested, China sent another refusal to Rus sia, whose government paid no attention. The Russians have not withdrawn their demands, which presumably are still ly ing on the table of the Chinese Foreign Minister. The Minister states that the secret treaty will probably be signed privately, and it is imperative that Japan should protest and assist China in resisting the Russian demands. The Asahl's Tlen-Tsln correspondent, un der date of May 21. says Russia has as sembled 7000 troops at Uaoyan, with a view to carrying out maneuvers on a large scale in that quarter In a few days. The Corean government on May 23 in structed the Governor of Wlju to arrest Coreans who have sold their land and .houses either to Russians or Chinese, and warned him that he will be held re sponsible for the execution of this order. Press reports of the proceedings of the Diet now sitting show that the Govern ment has encountered some difficulty In supplying the recent demands for Informa tion of a considerable pectlon of the mem bers in regard to Russian action In Man churia. The main question of Russian demands is awaltlnp the arrival of M. Lcssar. Russian Minister to Pekln, from St. Petersburg. The Chinese riots in Kwangsl Province have developed in violence, and it Is un officially reported that the French Con sul at Tonking has represented to the Pekln Government that unlfcss the Insur gents are suppressed French troops will be sent across the frontier to quell the dis turbance. Japan Criticises British Policy. VICTORIA. B. C, June 13. Mail ad vices received from Japan state that some Japanese publicists are questioning whether Great Britain appreciates the gravity of the Manchurian situation, and criticise the acceptance of Russian assur ances. The North China Dally News In this regard pays: "How can Japan help seeing that every day's delay is being used by Russia to pile up preparations for eventual war and to consolidate her hold on Manchuria." The Pekln and Tien Tsln Times corre spondent at Niu Chwang says Russians still patrol the streets there, police the river, issue proclamations, control native customs, banks and foreign duties. Car goes of coal are constantly arriving and disquieting rumors abound. To all queries the Russians answer that they will leave "when St. Petersburg orders." The Russian troops are kept at the point dominating the Talu In the guise of pro tectors of the rights of Russian timber concessionaires. JAPANESE CRUISER IS ASHORE. Snowstorm Causes the Accident and Dentil of Nineteen Sailors. TOKIO, June 13. The Japanese cruiser Soklo, 610 tons, which was one of the first warships captured from China dur ing the war of 1894-5. ran ashore May 22, during a snow storm off Shakotan, Ne muro Province. The vessel does not ap pear to be much damaged, but is exposed to the storms. Nineteen sailors have been drowned or frozen to death. The survivors have sheltered in temporary huts ashore. The cruiser Katsuragi and a salvage steamer with coolies has been sent to the scene to render assistance. The Japanese Government has had a wireless telegraph project placed before it by a Japanese syndicate, which alms to establish communication between Japanese points and British Columbia, Honolulu. China, Formosa and Manila. The warship which Corea had intended to buy from a Japanese company has not been handed over, as the Corean govern ment has not paid for her. The Minister of War, who made the deal, has resigned, pleading illness to escape the dilemma arising out of the deal. CONSUL NEARLY ASSASSINATED.

BERLIN, June 13. It is seml-offlclally stated by the Hamburg correspondent that the government will not hesitate for a moment to dissolve the new Reichstag if It is found that the Socialists and Agra rians together command sufficient votes to defeat the ratification of the commer cial treaties.

TRAVEL OVER HOT SANDS Nobles of Al ICnder Temple Escort a targe Caravan. The semiannual ceremonial and ban qnet of Al Kader Temple, Nobles of the Mystic Shrine, was held last night at the Masonic Temple. The Shriners the world over are noted for good fellowship, but the affair last night was certainly one of the best held here or anywhere. There were present not only distin guished Masons of the Scottish and York rites throughout the State of Ore gon, but also New York, Pennsylvania, California. Yvasnington and other states were represented. George H. Hill, poten tate, assisted by the officers and other members of the Shrine, had everything In the best shape, while Henry Rowe and W. A. CI eland, in charge of the banquet feature of last night's affair, had done their work nobly. The Shriners showed their appreciation of the excellent and successful efforts of these gentlemen when in the due course of events they had a chance to express themselves. The deco rations, too. In all Oriental splendor, were elegantly done. In fact the whole affair was all that human effort could accom plish; nothing was overlooked that would in any way add to the comforts or enjoy ment of the Mystic Shriners. As to the newly Initiated candidates, they, like all who have gone before them, will never forget the great treat prepared for them by Al Kadcr Temple. It Is needless to say that all of these candidates have cheer fully submitted to the ordeal: only one has done so somewhat unwillingly, but be soon found relief In the old observation it Is good for brethren to dwell In unity. The following Is a complete list of the candidates who Joined last night's cara van of Al Kader Temple across the Ore gon sands: Harry R. Albee, A. B. An drews, A. H. Averill. W. J. Blake, of lone; A. G. Backrodt. J. H. Burgard, G. T. Brunk, of Salem; C. F. Belt, of Dallas; H. A. Beldlng. W. R. Babb, G. W. Brown. George L. Baker, T. P. Bodlnson. of Ba ker City; E. D.

Device of Leasia's Lawyer to Pre vent Ex-Wife From Testifying To prevent the divorced wife of Martin V. Leasia from "testifying against him at his trial for the murder of her father, F. H. Drews, Leasfa's attorney says he will appeal to the Supreme Court from the decree -of divorce granted to Mrs. Leasia several weeks ago. The statute allows six months for an appeal, so there is yet plenty of time. The criminal code pro vides that a wife cannot testify against her husband, or a husband against his wife. In a criminal action without the consent of either, as the case may be, except that a wife may testify against her husband If he beats her. The attorney for Leasia thinks if he appeals from the divorce decree the court will be compelled to rule that Mrs. Leasia still occupies the legal status of a wife, and cannot be heard against her hus band. Mrs. Leasia says she saw Leasia shoot and kill her father, and. If her testimony should be excluded, its ab sence might assist the defendant material ly. The trial will occur soon. OLD SINNER SENTENCED AGAIN. Kelly, the Incorrigible Oplam-Smug-Sler, Given Six Months. Larry Kelly, a notorious opium smug gler, convicted several days ago In the United States District Court on the old charge, was sentenced by Judge Bellinger : to six months In the County Jail. Kelly has already been in jail since his ar- t CSl 8CVL'11I J11UUU1C. aiTttlull Uiai iiut' wlthstanding his trial and conviction, he protested that he was not guilty. He said, addressing the court: "I am innocent, but it is no use for me to make a statement. I can account for every day since I was here before. Your Honor, I kept my word to you." This was in allusion to a promise made when he was previously sentenced, that when he got out of Jail he would sin no more. Judge Bellinger- asked Kelly his age. and the prisoner answered: "Sixty-three years." Judge Bellinger heard the response, and, after pausing for a second, announced the sentence of six months.

HOSTETTER' OUR PRIVATE STAMP OVER THE JURY AFRAID TO CONVICT KENTUCKY FEUDISTS CONFIDENT OF THEIR ACQUITTAL. State Is Unable to Locate a Very Ia port&nt Witness, and Closes Its Case. JACKSON, Ky., June 13. The prosecu tlon in the case of Curtis Jett and Thom as White, charged with the assassination of J. B. Marcum, rested early today, and the defense secured a continuance until Monday on account of the absence of witnesses. As the state occupied only a little more than two days In presenting its testimony, it is believed the case will go to the Jury next Wednesday. The prosecution was compelled to close without the attendance of Henry Free man, a witness whose testimony was wanted to prove a conspiracy involving others than the defendants at the bar.
