JAPAN WILL GET
FJUH TREATMENT
Root Sends Pledge
Through Wright.
WILL TOLERATE NO BOYCOTT
Japanese as Welcome as Any
European Nation.
TROUBLE SIMPLY - LOCAL
Cannot Prevent Agitators Talking,
but Will Not Allow Exclusion
of Japanese From Public
Schools and Business.
WASHINGTON; (Oct. 27. The text
of a cablegram to Ambassador Wright at
Toldo, givt-n out by the State Department
tonight, bearing on the alleged discrimin
ation against Japanese laborers and school
children in Sah Francisco, disclosed that
the United States took prompt action to
acquaint the Japanese government with
the purely local character ot the case.
The dispatch answers one from Mr.
"Wright calling attention to the view taken
. by the newspapers of Toklo and ex
plains that this Government will not tol
erate any other treatment toward Japa
nese than that accorded the most friendly
European nations. The cablegram was
sent three days before the visit of Vis
count Aokl to Secretary Root. It says:
Trouble Purely Iiocal.
October 23. To Wright, Toklo: Trou
bles your dispatch of 21st are so entirely
local and confined to San Francisco that
this Government was not aware of their
existence until the publication in our
. newspapers of what happened in Tokio.
"The best Information we have been
nbl-5 to obtain Indicates that there is noth
ing even In San Francisco but an ordinary
local labor controversy, exalted by the ab
normal conditions resulting from the
earthquake and fire. We cannot prevent
men desirous of a labor vote from mak
ing speeches in favor of excluding any
kind of competition. This does not seem
to have gone beyond irresponsible agita
tion, to . which no attention -can be paid
by this Government or should be by the
people of Japan. The trouble about schools
appears to have arisen from the fact
that the schools Which the Japanese had
attended were destroyed by the earth
quake and "have not yet been replaced.
Equal Treatment for All.
"You may assure the Government of
Japan in most positive terms that the
United States will not for a moment enter
tain the idea of any treatment towardJ
the Japanese people other than that ac
corded to the people of the most frelndly
European Nation and that there is no
reason to suppose that the people ot the
United States desire our Government to
take any different course.
"The President has directed the Depart
ment of Justl to make Immediate and
full investigation and take such steps as
the facts call for and maintain all treaty
rights of Japanese In the spirit of friend
ship and respect which our people have
so long entertained. The purely local and
occasional nature of the San Francisco
school question should be appreciated
when the Japanese remember that the
Japanese students are welcome in the
hundreds of schools and colleges all over
.tha country.

WITHHOLDS REPOKT OX RAID
.Roosevelt Will Avoid Further Irrita
tion of Japanese.
OREOONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington, Oc 27. The report of Special
Agent Sims, who made the Investigation
of tha killing of Japanese seal poachers
In Alaska, will not be made public at
this time, because of the prevailing anti
American sentiment in Japan. The report,
it is understood, is very injurious to the
Japanese involved and it is feared that
Its publication would serve no good pur
lose and only tend to Intensify unfriendly
feeling abroad.
XOCAIj views on situation
Japanese Consul Aiba Does Not Ap
prehend Serious Results.
Portland Japanese and others who are
familiar with the commercial and political
relationship existing between Japan and
the United States do not believe that the
agitation because of the exclusion of Jap
anese children from San Francisco schools
will have any Immediately serious results'.
T. Aiba. the local Japanese Consul, yes
terday expressed the belief that the unrest
in Japan over the trouble which has
arisen In San Francisco will soon settle,
and that nothing serious will come of it.
Others who have beeu following develop
ments snd who are cognizant of condi
tions both at home and abroad regard the
matter in the same light, and believe that
the interest President Roosevelt has taken
In heading off any rash move the Japa
nese government might take will do much
to smooth things over.
It Is pointed out that if the Japanese
should be so foolish as to boycott
American froods that by the United States
retaliating the commercial interests of
the land of Nippon would be practically
ruined. One-third of nil the exports of
Japan come to the United States, which
amount to about '.0.0w.00rt annually on an
average. Japan imiorts from this country
goods valued at about J:.XX(XX). Figures
with their bare face "show that japan
would be the loser if a boycott originating
there should be used as a weapon of re
taliation by Americans.
But the most Important feature of the
commercial relations between the two
countries is that, while the United States
takes one-third of the exports of Japan,
that country takes but one-sixtieth of our
exports. A Japanese boycott on American
goods would be but a mere scratch on
the commercial -activity of America, but
should the exports of Japan drop a third
less there would be a period of depression
which would be disastrous for the Orien
tals. But as an ultimate outcome of the in
flux of immigration from Japan it is pre
dicted by some that it will be the basis
of a great political struggle in the United
States. The unions. are becoming stronger
each succeeding year, and organized la
bor does not look with favor upon the
entrance of the coolies from the Orient.
Approximately 1000 Japanese, mostly
coolies, arrive In the Hawaiian Islands
and the United States proper each week.
This means that the Japanese population
of the United States is increased by about
50.000 from Immigration annually. There
are few American-born Japanese, as only
4 per cent of them in this country are
women.
The coolies are brought by companies
which make it a business to supply labor.
These companies are licensed by the Jap
anese government. It Is asserted that if
the Japanese were left to their own in
clination, and were not Induced by agents
to leave their homes, that the immigra
tion to the United States would be of no
consequence.
Consul Alba stated that there are
about 700 Japanese in Portland. For
the most part they are students and
are employed In white families. In
Oregon there are about 200 Japanese
all told, and the majority of them are
laborers, employed on construction
work, such as railroad building. There
are also a good many farmers.
In California there are approximate
ly 20,000 Japanese laborers, farmers
and students. It is estimated that
there are about 35,000 in the United States
outside of the Hawaiian Islands.
"I 'believe the agitation in this country
and the feeling of uneasiness in Japan
will blow over," declared Consul Ai-ba
yesterday afternoon. "When the agita
tion for separate schools for Japanese
6tudems at San Francisco first came to
a head it aroused soma bitter feeling
among my countrymen at home, but
as they are becoming more familiar
with the true conditions this feeling
is subsiding. They are beginning to
realize that the unpleasantness at San
Francisco is of a local character, and
that it is not general throughout the
United States.
"The trouble has been discussed by
the newspapers in Japan and some
editorials criticizing- the American peo-
PORTLAND LEADS THEM ALL.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU,
Washington, Oct. 27. The annusl
report of the Auditor for ths
Poatofflce Department shows that
$6,360,289 In money orders was
sold In Oregon during ths past
fiscal year. The Washington
sales were $13,763,037; Idaho,
$3,481,013, and Ataska $1,366,364,
The same report shows receipts
of tha following Presidential
postoffices from stamp sales as

Portland $520,274.

Spokane, $221,427.
pie" were printed. At that time the
report was general that all the Japa
nese in this country were being treated
unfairly. Since it has been learned
that this is not the case the newspa
pers and the people are beginning to
look upon the matter in a different
light.
"The Japanese feel' friendly toward
Americans. I feel reasonably sure that
there will be no boycott of American
goods. I have received no communi
cation, from my government relative
to the matter, "and I ' have forwarded
no reports In that regard; I have, not
considered it necessary.
"In' the Northwest,' so far as I can
learn, there is no anti-Japanese feel
ing. There may be an individual here
and there who is laboring under the
misapprehension that the Japanese are
a menace to American labor, but gen
erally speaking conditions could hard
ly be more pleasant. There is no dis
crimination against the Japanese of
Portland. They are not only admitted
to the public and private schools of
this city on equal terms with white
people, but are indeed welcomed. The
Japanese have been treated fairly In
Portland and In the true American
spirit, and that is all we ask or want.
"San Francisco Is a strong union
town and the labor unions of that city
have arrayed themselves against the
Japanese. I believe that this has been
the source of all the trouble. I fail
to see wherein the Japanese have
prejudiced the Interests of the Ameri
can worklngmen. From all parts of
the coast comes the cry for more la
borers. There Is a scarcity of labor
and there Is plenty of work for all."
JAPAN NOT rXDCLY EXCITED
Regard Action In San Francisco as
Purely Local Matter.
LONDON, Oct. 27. A dispatch from
tha Tokio correspondent of the Times
says the general feeling in Japan Is
that while the nation is most anxious
to take the most lenient view possible
of the San Francisco incidents. It can
not differentiate between one section
of the American people and another,
and that therefore unless soma reme
dial measure Is applied the warm
friendship of the Japanese for the Unit
ed States will suffer a shock. An asso
ciation of Japanese and their Ameri
can friends at Tokio met yesterday and
resolved to send a cablegram direct to
President Roosevelt, urging him to use
his influence to secure a satisfactory
settlement of the difficulties.
A dispatch from the Toklo corre
spondent of the Daily Telegraph pro
tests against the sensational misrepre
sentation of the actual state of Japan
ese feeling regarding the shutting out-
of Japanese children from -the schools
of San Francisco. He says it is true
that the Japanese are pained at the oc
currence, but that they are sensible
enough to realize that California is not
tha United States, and that the epi
sode Is Isolated and distinctly local.
The Jiji Shimpo, according to the cor
respondent's dispatch, even goes so far
as to contend that the Japanese In San
Francisco are themselves partly to
blame, on the ground that they do not
assimilate American ways and customs.
As the civil authorities are Involved.
Japan will ask for some form of rei
dress, but the matter is not regarded
as of international importance.

CALLS THEM BAD NAMES
Pulitzer, Editor or the World, Comes
In for the Largest Baptism
From the Vials of His
Burning Wrath.
NEW YORK, Oct. 27. Seven speeches
before large and sympathetic audiences
tonight closed the week's campaigning of
William R. Hearst, the Independence
Lentrue ana Democratic nominee for Gov
ernor. -Mi-. Hearst spoke at widely separated
points in Greater New York, and it was
a late hour when he had concluded.
Everywhere he was received with much
cheering. His remarks were substantially
the same at each gathering.
"The Board of Elections has already be
gun its disgraceful work," said Hearst. "It
has allowed the people's petitions in
trusted to its care to be marked and mu
tilated and destroyed. It has thrown out
petitions by the score, and its action has
been sustained by the courts, even as the
courts last year decided that you, as citi
zens, had no right to have your votes
honestly counted, but that you must abide
by any regulations, no matter how false
or corrupt the election officials were.
"By this the courts have decided that
the petitions bearing the names of can
didates for Congressman and Assembly
man, or for State Senator and Assembly
man, are not valid, although on petitions
such as these Coler was elected President
of the Borough of Brooklyn last year.
Low was elected Mayor of Greater New
York and hundreds of officials have been
elected and have served their terms with
out question. '
Decision Is Revolutionary.
"The lawyers of the people have ad
dressed an appeal to Edgar M. Cullen,
Chief Justice of the Court of Appeals, h
which they point out that, with the ex
ception of Judiciary cases, one question
was Involved In substantially every case
before the appellate division. The deci
sion there rendered may be regarded as
revolutionary, in that it brands as illegal
substantially every independent certificate
of nomination ever filed since the enact
ment of the new election law. The letter
further states that If this decision be up
held It marks the death of all Independ
ent movements in the future. The effort
Is being made by the criminal trusts to
crush out the power of the people.
"These trusts control your parties, pri
maries and public officers, and deny you
the right to any government that will ex
press the popular will. You are deserted
and betrayed by the public officers that
should sustain you, and by the so-called
free press that should support you.

EIGHT SPEECHES IN ONE DAY
Hughes Winds Up Busy Week at
Higgins Home.
OL.EAX. N. Y.. Oct. 27. Concluding the
next to the final week of his campaign
for the Governorship. Charles E. Hughes,
the Republican candidate, addressed two
meetings here tonight. He made eight
speeches during the day on his way to
this city from Corning. Most of the day's
addresses were simply formal acknowl
edgments of the courtesy paid him by the
crowds which assembled at the various
stations, arfter which the candidate got
down and shook hands with all on the
station platform. The day s travel led
through Addison, Canlsteo. Hornell.
Wellsville, Belmont, Friendship and
Cuba, Mr. Hughes maning nis principal
address at Hornellsville.
The morning was raw and In the after
noon a hard rain set In. The downpour
continued throughout a greater part of
this evening, but apparently had little ef
fect either on the size or enthusiasm of
the audiences.
Governor Higgins. whose home Is here.
entertained Mr. Hughes and the candi
date's party at dinner, later presiding at
the meeting in the opera-house. .Mr.
Hughes and his party left at midnight
for Danesville, where they win remain
over Sunday.
In his address at Hornellsville Mr.
Hughes said In part:
tVe d.slre In this state the decent and
honorable administration of government.
We, want the workingmen who have money
HEARS
AT
in the savings banks to keep It and to be
able to add to It. We want those who naYe
homes that are now free from burdens to
keep them so. We want more opportuni
ties for employes. We want a greater
chance to get the 'benefits of our institutions.
You may think that business can be made
without sound publie opinion, but I tell you
that there is nothing in this country to
support our Government, to maintain our
prosperity, except the good sense of the
American people.
If a man desires to be Independent, I
honor him. I do not care whether he agrees
with me or not. If we have sober Judg
ment and act according to reason, and If
he is right, he will win. and the right will
always win after a discussion in this coun
try. But if he thinks It necessary to stand
on an Independent platform and clear him
self of both parties and condemn both par
ties, then let him stay there. If he thinks
it is the right thing to denounce the bosses
and I agree that it is the right thing if
he has to be a champion of political liberty,
then why should he enter into an alliance
with a boss in order that he should get a
nomination and the boss get some Judges
down in New York County.
The people of this country want some
consistency. If ambition and self-interest
will lead a man and his corporations to
dodge taxes, how do you know that ambi
tion and self-interest will not control the
executive chamber in Albany?
Hearst Will Appeal Ballot Decision.
NEW YORK, Oct. 27. The Independ
ence League will appeal to the Court of
Appeals from the decision from the Ap
pellate Division of the Supreme Court
yesterday, ruling off the official ballot
the names of' a number of 'League candi
dates for Congress, the assembly and the
Judiciary. Application for a special ses
sion of the court, which will be neces
sary, will be made Monday. The de
cision does not affect the league's state
ticket headed by W. R. Hearst.
GALLOWS FOR BAD MEN
PRESIDENT WHEELER VERY
MUCH AGITATED.
Declares Henev Is a Brave Man and
His Life Is in Danger From
San Francisco Grafters.
LOS ANGELES. Oct. 27. "If we have
many more bad men in San Francisco
we may have to get rid of some of them
by means of the scaffold," exclaimed
President Benjamin Ide Wheeler, of the
University of California, in an address
! -
Rudvlph Sprcckels, of San Fran
cisco, Who Is Receiving Large
Donations to the Fond for the
Prosecution of the Boodlera.
here yesterday before the pupils of the
Los Angeles High School.
Continuing his reference to this subject
in a personal discussion following his
address, President "Wheeler is quoted as
giving utterance to these words:
Iferhaps outsiders do not realize how des
perate and bold the conspirators have be
come. Nearly all self-respecting; men In the
city are behind Heney, yet he may be over
whelmed. Those who are opposed to him
are vindictive, desperate and no one knows
how strong. A coterie of men, myself in
cluded, supplied him with what money
he needs to push the investigation. Peo
ple who never took an Interest In politics
are being driven to It by the recent out
break, the like of which has not been seen
since the days of the last vigilance com
mittee. Ruefs bold grab at the District Attor
ney's office is a practical admission of
guilt. Men, women, children In all the Bay
cities are against him. Public feeling Is
wrought to such a pitch that, should vio
lence be done any of the reform chiefs, I
do not believe public indignation would
stop short of death to the perpetrators.
Heney is a brave man. He well knows every
time he walks into the courtroom that he
takes his life into his hands. We stand by
him.
President Wheeler was deeply agitated
as he talked and appeared greatly con
cerned at the seriousness of the situa
tion. His stay in this city was shortened
by the developments in the North, and
he left hurriedly for Berkeley.
WILL PURGE GRAND JURY
(Continued from Page 1.)

cases are conducted by them, such trials will
be ably conducted on the part of the prose

IiAXGDOX IS IN POSSESSION'
Ruef Makes Claims, but Performs
No Overt Act..
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct 27. District At
torney W. H. Langdon and his assistants
remain today in possession of the office
which constitutes the basis of contention
between opposing factions of the adminis
tration, and it Is probable that there will
be no repetition of yesterday's exciting
proceedings until next Monday, when the
grand Jury is to meet for the purpose of
selecting a foreman and entering upon its
duties. Public sentiment has to a great
extent subsided., although the greater
part of the city's population still mani
fests a keen Interest in the situation, and
the local press comments upon the de
velopments of the past two days as un
precedented since the days of the early
vigilance committees, half a century ago.
Abraham Ruef continues to lay claim
to the office of District Attorney by
virtue of due appointment of Acting
Mayor Gallagher, and in spite of the or
der of Judge Seawell. but his declarations
of last evening are regarded In the light
of a truce, which will continue until Mon
day. Ruef asserts that while he Is pro
hibited from acting in the capacity of
District Attorney, he is, nevertheless, in
possession of the office. His attitude to
ward the promised Investigation of al
leged municipal corruption Indicates that
he will, if confirmed as District Attorney,
take the investigation out of the hands
of the grand Jury and submit the charges
to representatives of the Bar Association
or the Attorney-General's office. To such
a course District Attorney Langdon and
Assistant District Attorney Heney have
already declared themselves unalterably
opposed, insistmg that the evidence- in
their possession be laid before the grand
Jury.
Maor Sclimltz In London.
NEW,,. TORK. Oct 37. A Herald cable
from IjOndon today conveys an Interview
with Eugene Schmitx, Mayor of San
Francisco, who is at present in the
Brltich capital, spending most of his time
In. visiting London's municipal districts
In order to see how affairs are adminis
tered and the class of buildings that Is In
vogue. Mr. Schmitx expressed the opinion
that in reconstructing San Francisco they
must build for the people who will live
there 200 years hence as well as today,
which was the reason for his visit to Eu
rope. He Intended to visit most of the
big cities on the continent, he said, and
his visits to Liverpool and Glasgow al
ready made had been useful. He spoke
of the &ck system of Liverpool as hav
ing favorably impressed him, and de
clared that some of the ideas, if applied
to San Francisco, would make that port
one of the greatest harbors.
Mayor Schmitx said he hoped, as the
result of his tour, to make all the best
points of municipal administration in
Europe contribute to the well being of
his people so that In a few years San
Francisco will have arisen a finer and
more beautiful city than ever.
ARE HOUNDED BY POLICE
Investigation Shows That Chicago
"Cops" Persecute Suspects.
CHICAGO, Oct. 27. (Special.) Inves
tigation of the charges that the Chicago
police hound and persecute suspected
criminals was begun by Superior Judge
Kavanaugh today. Complaint was made
by Albert Blaine, who seeks release from
Jail, asserting that he has been repeated
ly arrested upon the same charge, and
that the accusation against him has been
invariably disproved. The police main
tained that Blaine has been arrested but
once, upon which the prisoner convinced
the court that he had been taken into
custody four times.
"I've often heard such charges against
the police," said the Judge, 'and never
believed them true before. I do now. I
know of two men who were hanged here,
protesting, with their last breath, that
tbe police drove them to the gallows. It
is serious for sworn officers of the la
to hound men to death."
Many witnesses have been summoned to
enlighten the court concerning police
methods. ,
REFUSE TO KISS MOTHER
Children of Divorced Princess Show
Filial Love Dead.
MUNICH. Oct 27. (Special.) The
Countess Montignoso. who was the Crown
Princess Louise of Saxony, and who
eloped with the tutor of her sons in 1903,
wept today when her children refused to
embrace her when ithey met. The Count
ess had come here for the special purpose
of seeing her two eons, and when she met
them she rushed up to them with extend
ed arms. They bowed politely and treated
their mother courteously, but that was
all.
Nellie Vassar Given Alimony.
NHW YORK, Oot. 27. (Special.) Nellie
Vassar, known on the stage as Queenie
Vassar, obtained from Judge Keogh today
an order for back alimony at the rate of
10 a week since 1901. Her husband, Nich
olas Doyle, formerly a hotel-keeper, is an
inmate of Bloomingdale Insane Asylum.
The Judge directs the Doyle estate to pay
the actress J2610.
TRY TO RAISE CONGESTION
New York Central Tracers Out or
Stray Cars.
CHICAGO, Oct. 27. Orders have
been issued by the traffic department
of the New York Central lines west of
Buffalo, Instructing all agents and so
licitors to cease soliciting business, as
the road is unable to handle what
comes to it naturally. Accordingly, be
tween 150 and 200 men are now devot
ing their time to trailing cars belong
ing to the New York Central lines. The
freight agents of the various companies
have instructions to travel over their
territory and go anywhere they have
reason to believe there is a stray car
belonging to the New York Central.
Never in the history of Western roads
was the freight congestion so great as
now. It was reported yesterday that
the Northern Pacific has at least 10,000
cars which it Is unable to move, so
great has the offered business become.
Other roads in the Northwost also are
in bad shape, one of the main reasons
for congestion being the abnormal
movement of lumber.
OIL TRUST WINS IN OHIO
Cannot Be Compelled to Pay State
$2 70,000 in Fines.
COLUMBUS, O., Oct. 27. Attorney-General
Ellis was defeated today in his fight
against the oil trust in a decision handed
down by Judge Dillon In the Common
Pleas Court.
The Manhattan Oil Company, which is
understood to be a part of the Standard
Oil Company, was sued by the Attorney
General for fines amounting to 1270,000,
this method being taken instead of trying
to oust the company from the state. The
state claimed the above amount under the
Willis law. The corporation admitted
that it had not paid the tax, but claimed
it was exempt. The case came up for set
tlement on motion for Judgment and was
decided against the Attorney-General.
WHOLE PEARL FLEET LOST
Bodies of 500 Japanese Fishermen
Already Recovered.
TOKIO, Oct. 27. (Special.) The disaster
to the Pearl Bonito fishing fleet off the
south of Kiushiu in the recent storm
proves even greater than was feared at
first. Most of the 360 vessels in the fleet
were lost and 500 bodies have already
been recovered.

Be Placed On One of the
Reservations Near the
Black Hills.
CHEYENNE, Wyo.. Oct. 27. According
to advices received by the Wyoming state
officials, the War Department has decided
to take no chances in rounding up the
band of U-te Indians, and has dispatched
an entire regiment of 1000 men to the
camp of the Utes. The two troops of the
Tenth Cavalry first sent out have been
reinforced by four more troops of the
same regiment from Fort Rcrtinson, and
six troops of the Sixth Cavalry have now
been ordered from Fort Meade' under
Colonel Hughes to reinforce the troops
already In the field.
The cavalry is marching overland from
South Dakota toward Powder River,
where the Indians are camped, and will
probably Join the Tenth Cavalry near the
camp and surround the redskins.
It has been decided. If the Utes sur
render, to place them on one of the agen
cies south of the Black Hills until Spring
and then take them back to their reserva
tion In Utah.
INFANTRY IN CLOSE PURSUIT
Attempt Will Be Made to Intercept
Warlike Ctes.
SHERIDAN, Wyo., Oct. 27. Two com
panies of infantry left for the Mackenxie
today, going north, and it is generally
believed they have gone to intercept the
Ute Indians in case they attempt to reach
the Cheyenne agency before the arrival
of the cavalry from Fort Meade.
Old-timers here say that should the
Utes reach the Cheyennes they would fire
that band Into revolt and a serious war
would result. The Cheyennes are hard
fighters, and have given the Government
much trouble.
The second detachment of cavalry sent
out from Fort Robinson left Gillette about
midnight, and unloaded this morning at
Kendrick. three miles from Arvada.
They had instructions from the depart
ment to "march close on the heels of the
Indians," but not to fire unless absolute
ly necessary." They will await the arrival
of the troops from Fort Meade before
making a demonstration.
The Indians camped last night about 60
miles northeast of Sheridan. Chief Kan
napp says they will not go back. Beyond
killing stock for food and robbing an oc
casional sheep camp, the Indians have
committed no depredations.
Carried Out of Burning: Hotel.
COLUMBUa, O.. Oct. 27. Eleven per
sons were rescued early today In a fire
in the upper rooms of the Palm Hotel,
on High street. The fire caught from
defective wiring and cut off escape by the
stairways. Firemen placed ladders and
carried half suffocated men, women and
children down in their nightclothes.
Four persons were seriously injured.

better, but not entirely cured, as my case Is
one of 23 years' standing. I did not expect
to be cured all at once. I had almost
lost all hope of ever getting any remedy
that would help me until I tried Pyramid

cure me if I continue their use, wheh I
intend doing so long as I can get the
