CANADA IS ANGERED.
Retaliation in High T ariff Is Being
U rged in Dominion.
O ttaw a, O nt., June 15.—T hat the
new Am erican customs tariff when
finally revised will fu rth er increase the
tariff a g ain st Canada, is the represent
ation made by many comm ercial bodies
to the Dominon governm ent.
Inquiries are also put as to w hat
course the governm ent is likely to pur
sue in the m atter. In some quarters
tariff retaliation is being urged and
O ttaw a authorities are beginning to
give their a ttention to the situation
which the Payne tariff is likely to cre
ate.
Lum ber in terests as well as pulp
m anufacturers and paper m akers of the
province of Quebec are ju b ilan t over
the announcement recently made by a
provincial leader, S ir Lomer Gouin,
th a t stum page dues would be increased
and th a t export of pulp wood from the
province will be prohibited. This pro
hibition will only apply to tim ber cut
on governm ent lands.
Increases on oysters, hops and pota
toes will not m ake much difference to
C anada’s trade. Canada is more inte
rested in the coal, w heat and lumber
duties. The opportunity afforded by
the Payne tariff for reciprocity in coal
is likely to be a live subject for discus
sion a t the next session of the Cadna-
dian parliam ent.
The continuance of duties on w heat
has led to the philosophic opinion th at
the U nited S ta te s will be chiefly affect
ed a t present, and in tim e to come will
be compelled by home demand to lower
the tariff bars, as Canada has the com
modity and the Am erican m illers m ust
have it.

DR. HALE DEAD.
Chaplain o f Senate P a sses Away Af
te r B rief Illness.
Boston, Ju n e 11.—The m orning light
was breaking us the venerable Edward
E v ere tt Hale. D. D., chaplain of the
United S ta te s senate, U nitarian divine,
author, jo u rn alist and lover of peace,
breathed his last yesterday in his home
in Roxbury.
A t his bedside were his w ife, his
daughter, Miss Ellen D. Hale, and his
son, Philip L. Hale, the a rtis t. Two
other sons, A rthur Hale, of W ashing
ton, and Professor Edward E v ere tt
Hale, J r ., of Union college, returned
home last evening.
I t is expected
th a t partial arrangem ents for the fun
eral on Monday in the South Congre
gational church, of which Dr. Hale
was the pastor em eritus, will be an
nounced tomorrow.
On his retu rn from W ashington a
few weeks ago i t was reported th a t
Dr. Hale was not in good health, but
he soon regained his a ctiv ities a: d
until Tuesday attended m eetings and
received friends. I t seems as though
the whole country joined in m ourning
the loss o f Dr. Hale. M essages ex
pressing sorrow and esteem poured into
the Hale household, one of the first
being from P resident and Mrs. T aft.
As an author Dr. H ale’s fam e rests
on his short stories, such as “ The Man
W ithout a C ountry.” As an instiga
to r of social uplift, the work of the
two g re at organizations, the Lend-a-
Hand club and the K in g ’s D aughters,
will alw ays add to his renown. As a
m inister and pastor his half century in
the pulpit of the South Congregational
church and his preaching in many other
churches were prolific of wise sp iritu a l
inspiration. As a historian his w rit
ings have become authorities.

today when the office of the “ J i j i , ” a

the offices of the Japanese H igher

officers armed w ith search w arrants,

habeas corpus, entered in behalf of
M akino, N egro and Soga, the three a l
leged leaders of the sugar plantation
s trik e rs who w ere taken into custody
yesterday, was rejected by the court.
I t is said by the au th o rities th a t the
papers found indicate th a t a conspiracy
of a w idespread nature has been
form ed among the Japanese of the
islan fs to w rest control of affairs from
the w hite residents, and conduct the

The determ ination to control is re

An appeal to all Japanese, in
the nam e of th eir native country, to
aid in th is movement, is said to be con
veyed in the letters.
The a uthorities are preparing com
plete translations of all the papers
seized and it is said th a t they w ill be
used as evidence in support of many
charges of conspiracy, which it is de
clared will resu lt from the disclosures.
A second petition has been filed by
the attorneys for the prisoners, but has
not been acted upon by the court.
The strik e of the Japanese plantation
hands has been in progress for over a
month, and is the m ost extensive w alk
out ev er known on the islands.
Be
tween 5,000 and 8,000 Japanese are in
volved. The strik e rs demand in an in
crease from 69 cents to $1 a day for
field laborers, and a proportionate ad
vance for mill hands and other p lanta
tion employes.

San Francisco, June 9.—A quarrel
of unparalleled bitterness, involving
Judge W illiam P. I.awlor and virtually
all of the a ttorneys engaged in the
tria l of P atrick Calhoun, enlivened a
day otherw ise devoted fo presentation
of routine testim ony. A ssistan t Dis
tric t A ttorney Heney sta rte d the dis
pute by charging th a t E arl Rogers, an
attorney for the defense, had been
sm iling a t certain m em bers of the jury.
There was an angry response from
John T. B a rrett, of the defense, who
declared th a t tho prosecution had un
n e c e s s a r y prolonged the tria l by the
introduction of triv ia l m atters.
The subject of the ju ro rs’ sm iles was
about to he dism issed, when John J.
B a n e tt re ipened the issue by saying:
“ I ,d j not think we should he lec-
tu rtd by the ' istr ct a ttorney into a
sta te of ser ouan ss n g a rd in g this
case. The pro: ecu ion has spent weeks
in a presentatu n of m atter th a t is ri
diculous. triv ia l and ludicrous, attem pt-
ing by the length of tim e devoted to
th eir presentation to m ake the jury
think them w orthy of consideration.”
For these rem arks B a rre tt was
sternly reprim anded by Judge Lawlor,
who told the a ttorney th a t if he made
another such reference he would send
him to jail.
“ If the court intends to punish m e.”
B a rrett answ ere 1, “ then w hat about
th is man s ittin g over here, who has re
peatedly been perm itted to insult the
court, the jury and the atto rn ey s?”
Heney a t once took up the fray and
sh o u ted :
“ These are the ebullitions of a man
who was appointed to office by the
crookedest m ayor the city ever had,
Eugene E. S chm itz.”
“ Why, you’ve been mixed up in more
crooked work than any man in this
courtroom ,” said B arrett.
“ Mr. Heney has never insulted the
c o u rt.’’thundered Judge Law lor sternly.
“ He has certain tem peram ental qual
ities which I have observed and made
allowance for. He was stricken down
in this court while engaged in the per
form ance of his duty, and resum ed his
a c tiv ities a t an early date. Mr. Heney
is laboring under em harassm ents which
should appeal to the hum anity of any
