(Uoltwl Pm Mr4 WlrO Chicago, Nov. 30. Constroctlon work on the Harrlman aystem, which .was diBContinTlfed a few week ago, will be resumed all along the line on December 2. According to officials ok the road 10,000 men will be put back to work. When the weather becomes too severe in Kansas and Nebraska, the workmen will be m?ved to the Pa cific coast, and "the rebuilding of the line between Los Angeles and San Francisco will begin. The entire Pacific coast will also be benefited, at work which was abandoned on the Southern Pacific j and O. R. & N. extensions will be resumed at the same time. Work will be rushed on the joint line from Eureka to San Francisco, which Is belng built .by Harrlman and, the Santa Fe. This road Is Bupposed to be a continuation of the coastline to Portland via Coos Bay and other..' coaBt points, and It is un derstood that all work on the north coast'Will be resumed also. Railroad authorities here declare that this announcement can only be tho result of better times through out the country generally and New York in particular. It Is argued Ijy these people tdat 'the work could not be resumed had not Harrlman been able to obtain money In New York, which indicates a great Improve ment In conditions' there.

Among the first to .feel the Impetus will be the Snake river extension of the Oregon Short ,ine from Huntington to Lewinton, where the, camps are, still maintained for about 2,000 men. This cxtenHlon la regarded as one of the most Important, In view ot the Union Taclflc company's determination to hold against all threatened competition the water Krade route through- from Green River to the Pacific. The extension of the Harrlman roads from Portland to Puget jjound Is also in cluded in the plan for Immediate con duction. Harrlman has spent Immense sums of money in the sound cities ac quiring terminal and-rights of way, and has begun construction of the; Tacoma tunnel. The plans for a similar tunnel have also been accepted for Portland peninsula, and largo amounts of money have been invested on Portland peninsu la to acquire rights of way to the Co lumbia, river bridge under construction by the Portland & Seattle. Tije Kiamatn county -construction has not peen discontinued, and.ndded forces will be put on to ruah this work through. It la expected the line will be continued on steadily north of Klamath Falls to the proposed connection at Natron, giv ing Portland a direct route to, the Klam ath country. ... ( Main line straightening from Portland to The, Daltej will -be presumed. IThe work from Drain to Coos Bay will p7ab-' ably, not be taken up until next spring. The, Central Oregon- line known as the Oregon Eastern-from Natron to Vale, will probably not be given consideration until next year.

(ddto Prt LtiMS Wire.) Vancouver, B. C, Nov: 39. At the Japanese Immigration Inquiry S. Ootoh, star witness and secretary of , the Canada Nlrfpon Sopply company, told of his vl&it to Japan last winter and how he persuaded Japanese immigration companies to see the government, .These companies, composed . of Influential men, were successful In getting -the gov ernment to alter Its policy, despite' the agreement With Canada. Wholesale Immigration was allowed, so long as It was shown the men had work In Can- pan. Ootoh testified that . men ' had . been supplied to railway and contracting companies here and.' acting upon' his suggestion, the- influx -was stopped. ",The "mission; of. the commission 'has been fulfilled," was the remark of Com missioner King when this Information came out. He does not see how the Japanese government - will- explain Its actions ana policy in face of the agree ment In the treaty. - - i '- ARCHB0LD , PKCLABES IITS-'MOXEY IS PURE RATE CASE 1 Commissioner Lane Denies Having: Reached Conclu sion but Rules Against Plea Similar to That Made by Spokane. .(Washington Bureia of Tbt Journal.) Washington, Nov. 30. Commissioner Lane says the Spokane rate ease has not been solved by the commission, and a decision has not yet even tentatively beea reached. The rumor that the de cision favors Spokane is merely sur mise. Coincidental today the commission handed out a decision denying the peti tion of Santa Barbara and Ventura. u ilia, lyjk wreov n , 11, , iiw ,, v..,.,. mlssloner Lane wrote the decision, deny- n the petitions on the grounds "that conditions do not exist at such points Justifying such an order by the com mission." . The decision says: "Although it Is fairly established that at present there is active and real com petition between ocean and rail carriers to Pacific coast points, Santa Barbara doe aot enjoy such water competition as to compel the Installation of termfcr nal rates voluntarily on 'the purt-ol carriers. By three distinct water routes and at least as many-' line of steam ships, freight -la transported from easr- rn ports to the Pacific coat." The decision then goes On to amplify thtf position. Although were Is no connection be tween the Santa Barbara and Spokane cases, the commission, in the former, takes the position apparently of recog nizing fully the existence of water com petition for Pacific-coast freights, which may be taken as indicating that the same position will be assumed with reference to the Spokane case, which was argued by Spokane on the basis of the assumption that no real water competition exists with Paclflc ports. This parallel Is merely an indication and Is not to be taken as more than that, and the oommissloners are in no way responsible for citing it. 'RESIDENT FRIENDS .

The case la being threshed out today in the courts. (United rresi Leased Wire.) Berkeley, Cal., Nov. 30 Habeas corpus proceedings have failed to bring about the release of Harry Klelnschmldt, and the lad who is ac cused of the murder of his one-time frieud, Frank Bellows, had to suffer the disappointment of going back to the dreary cell In the county Jail In Oakland, where he has already spent a long week of close confinement. Instead of acting immediately on the petition or tne young mans attorneys, Hiinerinr J urine Harris, before whom the proceedings were hiard,' announced that ne wouiu continue tne-case until Tuesday morning at .9sS0 o'clock for decision. Klelnschmldt's attorneys then aaked the privilege of securing the -release of their client on ball. 'The judge denied this . request and demanded the lad to the custody of the heHff. To thte court order the, attorneys for ' the defense took exception. The defense la preparing to use the testimony-of a prominent sorority girl of BerJceley to disprove the theory that Klelnschmldt was desperately In love with ' Blanche Kerfoot and harbored a deadly hatred, against Bellows on ac count of his success in winning her affections. The DroBecumw bases a large part or the. a-rarument .for'.ihe murder theory on the alleged fact- '.that Klelnschmldt was infatuated with Miss Kerfoot at the time of Bellows' death,' 'and conse quently .had sufficient -; reason for wanting Bellows out' of the way. The witness whom the defense may nse to disprove this theory Is a beauti ful ., sornfity girl-,' of v,Berkeley. with whom, It Is declared, Klelnschmldt has been In love for months. If this can be proved it will be evident that his affection for Blanche Kerfoot, was hard ly strong enough to cause him to com mit muraer -on ner .account. It Is declared that the girl will be spared publicity If possible, and It may be that her testimony will not be used in the court proceedings it tne defense can find any means of getting along without n.

That niurder had been considered in the plans of the young. highwaymen Is evident by additional .facts , drawn out in the confession of Frank 'McPherBon, alias "Floss" Freeman,, who was before Assistant United States Attorney James Cole yesterday and told of the robbery of branch postofflce No. 2, one burglary and three other hold-ups, all committed In Portland since NOvemoer . Among themselves ,the boys bragged of their ability to shoot well and were only waiting for an opportunity to bring taeir cravings to aeuoerateiy lane nu man life into nlay. Furthermore, from McVherson's confession, It was learned that chloroform was to be brought into use for the victims or their burglaries. Oambled In Poolrooms, Since coming to Portland several months ago the 17-year-old bandits have spent much of their time In "payla term of several years each pool" ronms, gambling. One of these In particular was that run by a Japa nese on Second 'street. When not gamb ling or plotting to rob the, boys were reading cheap literature of the blood-and-thunder variety. - It was from these books that the Idea of using chloroform was conceived. McPherson frankly admitted this to At torney Cole. It had been used success fully, he says, according to the .novels In "cases of burglaries where great hauls of booty were secured. One of the plans was to send the fumes of the drug through the key holes of rooms occupied by their sleeping victims. ; j ("McPherson says lie mftt George"Wil son, Fred Johnson and John Simpson, all of whom are In Jail" peridlng tire action of tho grand juryrafter coming to Portland.
