Anarchist Conspiracy in Rio Janeiro
to Blow Up Fleet
Fort Stevens, Or., Jan. 22.— Conster­
nation was caused yesterday by the cap­
ture of two Japanese who were found
loitering in the west battery of Fort
Stevens.
Rio de Janeiro, Jan. 21.—The Bra­
zilian police have discovered an anar­
chistic plot here having as its object
the destruction of part of the American
fleet now lying in the harbor. The con­
spiracy. while centering in Rio Janeiro
and Petropolis, hag ramifications in
8ao Paulo and Minas Genies.
An individual named Jean Fedher,
who resided in Petropolis, was the
chief conspirator here, although it is
understood that foreign anarchists are
deeply involved iu tbe plot. Fedher is
believed to have tied to Bao Paulo and
the police, who know him, have been
sent to that place fer the purpose of
apprehending him. One of the detec­
tives who was well acquainted with
Fedher, having served on the police
force at Petropolis for gome time, re­
turned from that place today. After
having made investigation there and
had a long conference with the chief of
police at Rio Janeiro/ the latter gave it
to be understood later that tne Sao
Paulo police are on the track of tbe
arch conspirator and expect to arrest
him soon.
The sentry, while walking his pos
to the west battery, suddenly came up­
on two Japeneee who were walking on
the parapet ol the battery.
Aa this
place is unfrequented, except by special
permission from tbe district artillery
oommander, tbe sentry hid behind a
sentry box and watched their move­
ments. 8eeing them point to the dif­
ferent guns and emplacements and look­
ing over tbe situation in general, the
gentry took the men into custody and
marched them back to the main post.
They were then interviewed by the dis­
trict adjutant general, B. H. Kerfoot,
who could obtain no satisfactory expla­
nation for their trespassing.
Although nothing of an incriminat­
ing nature could be found upon tbeir
persons, indications are that they were
at the post for the purpose of obtaining
plans aud sketches of the different for­
tifications and modes of defense.
The Japanese were very well dressed
and seemed to be above tbe aveage in
appearance and intelligence
Tbe fact
of their being in the west battery, prob­
ably the most important battery on the
Pacific coast, makes the situation much
mote seiious than it would otherwise
be. Tbe battery consists of six 10-inch
rifles and two 6-inch rapid fire guns,
and is considered to be one of tbe most
potent factors in the defense of this
part of the ccast.

fencing of public lands in Wheeler
coupty by the Butte Creek Land, Live

portant witness for the government yes­
terday in tiie Hall-Mays conspiracy
trial in tbe United States court. Spe­
cial Agent Loomis related the result ol
his investigations and testified that
while he had recommended the crim­
inal prosecution of W. W. Steiwer,
Hamilton H. Hendricks and probably
Clarence B. Zachary, of the Butte
Creek company, his recommendations
were disregarded by flail, who subse­
quently filed a civil suit only and after­
wards proposed to stipulate with the
officers of the Butte Creek company
by which the suit was to be dropped if
they removed tbe unlawful fences and
made it possible for other settlers to
have access to the lands that had been
improperly inclosed. Dixon was on the
stand when court adjourned yesterday
and will resume bis testimony this
morning.

Announces Japanese Policy
Toward Canada.
Ottawa Ont., Jan. 22.—Postmaster
General Lemieux in the house yester­
day made a report on his recent mis­
sion to Tokio. Mr. Lemieux declared
that, as a result of his negotiations
with the mikado’s government, an
effective check bad been put on the
emigration of the Japanese from Ha­
waii to Canada and that he received
assurances that the Japanese govern-
ment was not only anxious to meet
Canada’s wishes in the matter of re­
stricting direct emigration but regard­
ed such emigration as an economic loss
to Japan, whose policy of colonization
is con ined to Corea and Manchuria.
Mr. Lemieux briefly stated the
causes of anti-Japanese feeling in Brit­
ish Columbia, which culminated in the
riots there, and reviewed the various
treaties and conventions with Japan.
By treaty tbe Japanese were unequiv­
ocally given the same right aa any
British subject in Canaua and the real
cause of the recent agitation was the
broad interpretation of this treaty by
some enterprising emigration compan­
ies. It was on the faith of a tacit un­
derstanding with Japan that the latter
would restrict emigration that parlia­
ment gave its sanction to the treaty.

Pacific Coamt Hopgrowers' Association
Wants Oregon Acreage.
Prison Raformerz Will Ask Permit to
Try Scheme.
Salem—The board of directors for
Oregon of tbe Pacific Coast Hopgrow­
ers’ union met here last week and form
ulated a plan for ascertaining the names
of all the hopgrowers in the state, tbe
acreage of bops owned by each, tbe
names of growers who have signed tbe
constitution and bylaws of the union
and the acreage of each.
ft is expected that this information
will be at band and complete anon and
then for tbe first time it will be known
definitely how many acres of hops are
grown in Oregon. This information is
necessaty In order to ascertain the pro­
portion of acreage repte-ented in the
union and also the names of growers
who are needed as members but who
have not joined.
The work of gathering the statistics
w hh designated to the secretary, Joseph
Baumgartner, and arrangements were
made to raise a fund of $1,000 to pay
the immediate expenses of tbe organi­
zation work in Oregon. While no par
ticular effort will be made to learn the
acreage of hops that will be plowed up
this season, it is probable that a pretty
fair idea of the exten of the plowing
up will be gained.
Salem—The superintendent of the
state prison, the governor of Oregon,
Chaplain 8t. Pierre and Portland
friends of prison reform have agreed
on a plan for the construction of an
assembly hall and night school build­
ing that is to be added to the peniten­
tiary by consent of the next legislature.
It is to accommodate about 890 per­
sons and besides serving as a chapel
and amusement hall will be a school
room and have recitation rooms con­
nected with it.
It is to be located as an addition to
the east wing of the prison, and will
be built of brick made by the convicts.
The prisoners are to do all the con­
struction work themselves, and thus re­
duce the coet to the state to a mini­
mum.
Many of the prisoners can neither
read nor write, and tho work that is
being undertaken has the indorsement
of the Prisoners' Aid society of this
state.

Sets Out Walnut Trees.
Rickreall—J. B. Stump, one of the
leading farmers reeiding in this county,
has planted 175 acres of his large farm
near Monmouth to English walnuts,
and will make hie walnut grove a com­
mercial proposition. The trees are
planted with a space of 60 feet between
rows one way and of 40 feet the other
way. In the space between the rows of
walnut trees Royal Anne cherries are
planted and as these latter will hear
quickly the land set to walnuts will
soon be made profitable while awaiting
the first crop from tbe walnut trees.
Experiments made here in past years
with walnuts have been so satisfactory
that Mr. 8tnmp’s venture is not looked
upon as an experiment.
M A KE GO O D PROG RESS.
But Philippine Delegates Say It I* Too
Soon for Home Rule.
San Francieco, Jan. 21.—Speaking of
conditions in the Philippines, Benito
Legarda, delegate to congress, who,
with bis colleague, Pablo Ocampa, has
arrived here en route to Washington,
said today that his people had made
great progress under American rule,
and especially along educational lines,
ami added:
“ It is useless to talk of independence
now. I want independence, of course,
but how can we have it? That is the
question. I do not care to risk the
property I own in another civil war or
to anarchy that might follow an at­
tempt on the part of my countrymen
to govern themselves at present.’’
It is asserted that his fellow delegate
would work in harmony while in the
house of representatives, his only aim
being to improve the economic condi­
tions of the islands, worse now than it
has neen for 30 years. Both delegates
want to secure, if possible, the reduc
tion of the United States duties on
Philippine sugar and tobacco. Both
are greatly interested in the Japanese
question.
Legarda is a member of the Progres
sive party, while Ocampo ia affiliated
with the National party.
HENDRICKS TELLS IT
Pleads Guilty to Conspiracy to
Defraud Government.
INDICTED JOINTLY WITH HALL
Zachary Also Confesse» Chargee Are
True— Steiwer Alto Expected to
Testify Againet Hall.
Portland. Jsn. 23.—Sensational and
damaging testimony against John H.
Hall was given yesterday by Hamilton
H. Hendricks, who testified that in
May, 1900, he had suggested to Hall
that Hall use his knowledge of illegal
fencing by Steiwer and hix astoclates aa
a political club over W. W. Steiwer.
At the morning aeasion Hendricks,
who was a co-defendant with Hail anil
Mays, entered a plea of guilty to the
conspiracy indictment. Late in the
afternoon Hendricks was called to the
stand, and hie testimony, following
that of a number of minor witnesses
who preceded him, had the effect of a
thunder storm on a clear summer after­
noon. While Hendricks recited the
stcry of his interview with Hall in
1900, the ex district attorney conld not
repress a commingled expression of sur-
piise and pain. With drawn features
aud clenched jaws he scrutinized the
witness as the story of the inception of
his alleged unofficial relations with the
unlawful fencing monopoly was related.
The accused ex-Federal official goon re­
gained the interested and serai-hopeful
expression that has clmracteiized him
from the beginning of the trial, and
conrt adjourned for the day after the
sensational statements of Hendricks.
Clarence B. Zachary, who yesterday
entered a plea of guilty to the conspir-
acy charge, was foreman of the Butte
Creek company. He was a prominent
figure in superintending the different
schemes that were hatched by his asso­
ciates.
Mr. Heney expects to complete the
government’s case probably tomorrow
afternoon and not later than Haturday.
Hendricks will be on the stand dining
the morning session, possibly a part of
the afternoon today, and will he fol­
lowed by Clarence B. Zachary. Mr.
Heney last night would not discuss the
probability that W. W. Steiwer would
be called as a witness for the govern­
ment, neither would he admit that
Steiwer would follow the lead of his as­
sociates, Hendricks and Zachary, of the
Butte Creek company, and plead guilty.
