DIVIDE NORTHWEST
111!! and Harrlman Roads Agrne
Upon Territory.
HURT OREGON AND WASHINGTON
Each Una Takes a Olitfnctlva Field
From Which Ihe Other la Ef-
(actively Barred.
Washington, Juno 13. From evi
dence given today before the Interstate
Commerco commission it Is very plnln
that J. J. 11111 and E. II. Harrlman
havo mapped out the Northwest, each
taking a distinctive territory, from
which the other Is effectively barred.
Particularly is this true of the lumber
business. It I; pinctlcally Impossible,
under the existing freight rate and ar
rangements, for Oregon lumbermen to
compete with Pugct Sound In markets
tributary to the Northern Pacific and
Great Northern, and llkowloo Impossi
ble for Puget Sound mauufactuiers to
Invade territory tributary to the Harrl
man lines.
And so far as the respective railroad
cyst ems arc concerned, nelthor has any
desire to Invade the other's territory.
Both acknowledge their utter Incom
petency to handle the business that is
offered them and each obfrcts to being
compelled to tako care of the surplus of
the oUier.
At thti close of tho morning session
Mr. Jeffreys, attorney for tho Gould
system, announced to tho commission
that the Missouri Pacific jnd Denver A
Rio Grande, which connect with the
Harrlman lines at Qgden, had no objec
tion to "opening the Portland gateway."
JAPAN AGAIN AROUSED.
Widely Circulated Paper Aikt People
to Take Hand.
Tokio, Juno 13. Tho Malnlchl, pub
lished at Osaka and claiming to liavo a
circulation of 250,000, expresses anger
today at tho reported recent Attack on
aJspaneec horticulturist at Iterkoley,
Cal. It says:
"Tho outrjf.o demonstrates tho impo
tency of the California authorities to
protect our compatriots. Now is no
tlmo to rest assured on the stereotyped
diplomatic assurances frcm tho Wash
ington government. Only two weeks
after a positive declaration to take pre
ventive measures to safeguard Japanese
rights comes the Berkeley outrage.
"The persnoality of President Roose
velt towers high among living great
men and deserves full confidence, but
promisee, however high sounding and
reassuring, and tho promise maker,
however high In character, Is of no val
ue whatever If unaccompanied by deeds.
"The powcrleemciu of the California
and Federal governments la thus de
monstrated and It only remains to take
tho work of protection in our own
hands.
"That the outrages are of limited
local occurrence is not a sufficient ex
planation." HAYWOOD'S CASE HURT.
Attorney for the Defense Injures His
Own Theory.
Boise, Idaho, Juno 13. Again yester
day tho aimlcaslness of tho defense In
the Haywood case was Illustrated on
ovornl occasions. It has been apparent
all through tho crow examination of
Orchard and lias been commented upon
by all observers that Mr. RIchardeon
flounders around sadly and leads Into
contradictions.
There will bo atout thrco hours of
tho redirect examination of Orchard on
Friday morning, act ordlng to present
plans, but It may require much lets
time. Most everything has been brought
out in the cross oxaminaton that the
state wants, hut tho relations of the
wltnecs with the Cripple Creek detec
tive will bo gone over to some extent,
and sever la other matters will be fully
explained which havo been only touched
upon by tho cross examination and
were not gono into on direct examina
tion. Demand Indemnity for Riot.
Ban Francisco, Juno 13. The Japan
ese residents of Ban Francisco, it Is
said, Intend to demand an indemnlt) of
the United States government for the
alleged attack uKn tho Horseshoe res
taurant and other acts of violenco which
they say have been Inflicted upon them.
They hope also by bringing diplomatic
pressure to bear upon tho government
at Washington to suppress anti-Japanese
agitation in California. This, it is
tald, was tiro aim of Count Noda'a re

SCHMITZ IS GUILTY.
Jury Agrees That San Franctso Mayor
Extorted Money.
San Francisco, Juno 14. A Jury of
12 of his poem has declared Mayor
Kugeuc E. Schmlts guilty of tho crime
ot extortion as charged against him by
tho Oliver grand Jury.
Tho Jury was out Just one licur nnd
thlrty-uxo minutes. It olocted Charles
E. CVpp foreman and at onco proceeded
to an Informal ballot. This una cast
verbally and stood 11 for conviction
and one tor acquittal. Mr. Burns, a
shoemaker, cast tho dissenting vote.
Then the 12 men bcan a discussion of
tho evidence, which las toil for nearly
an hour. . At the end of that tlmo tho
first formal ballot was cast. It i a
written ballot and was unanimous for
conviction. Tho Jurymen Issued this
statement to tho Associated Press Im
mediately after their dismissal by the
court.
The mayor received tho verdict quiet
ly aud without emotion. Ho sat at tho
tablo talking with his counsel, whllo a
fow loyat friends camo up nnd shook
him by the hand. Many of tho city
employed, appointees of Schmlts, were
present and they showed tho greatest
surprise and consternation.
Assistant District Attorney Honey,
who has borno tho brunt of the battle
for the prosecution, woti not In the
courtroom when the verdict was
brought In. Even the prosecution did
not expect such a quick decision by tho
Jury, and was unprepared for It. There
were no signs of Jubilation when the
result of tho trial was known among
tho fonts of tho prosecution. They
took their vktory quietly.
Among tho crowd were heard expres
sions of satisfaction that Justice had
been done, but they were mingled with
words of regret that Schmitx, who had
nlaveil such a rollout part during the
tiro and earthquake, hnd succumbed to
tho intluenco that hud brought about,
his conviction ot felony. Sentence will
be pronounced June 27.
MAY HAVE DISPUTE AT HAGUE.
Japaneso Schema Of Aggression Op
posed by America.
Now York, Juno 14. A Vienna dis
patch to tho Herald quotes a delegate
to Tho Hague conference, said to Im the
reprt scntatlvo of a great power, as de
claring that Japan Is to hurl a bomb
into the conference by bringing forward
the question of rirht of a conqueror to
annex territory subjugated w ith all that
is upon It.
This will be warmly denied by both
Russia and the United States, the
Herald's Informant i quoted as saying.
Tho Russians liavo large private prop
erties In Manchuria, and the United
States considerable mining and other
interests In Corca. Of such Intercut
Japan proposes to deprive them. At all
events, that Is to be. the object of her
proposition.
The United States proposes to bring
a motion diametrically opposed to tluit
of Japan, and this, In view of tho pres
ent existing controversy between Jupan
and America, it is eaty to seo has till
the makings of a first-class Internation
al row.

When Mr. Money nnnounroii tnai
tho prosecution had completed Its

danger Irom llttut had passed, de
elded to put Kclimlti on the stand.
Thu Mayor, accordingly, nppeuroii in

as no longer n menace, rushed ahead
with his denials. Ilo reached thu
point on cross-examlntloii where Mr.
Money asked him If ho had received

the warnings from his own nttomey,
Schmlts answered In tho negative.
In no doing ho played completely
