from Lou Chief, who had been the cham
pion of the United States and Mexico.
At the request of E. L. Bloom, manager
for Mr. Hermann, who was doing the
honors of the stable to Herald reporter,
Mr. Baker ordered the beautiful mare
saddled and made her go through a num-
Der of exercises of the: haute ecole on
Main street, in front of the Panorama
stables, and there was a gathering of adj
mirers on the sidewalks much quicker
than dog fight could have brought it. Mr..
Baker, who rode, made My Queen trot,
lope and canter very nicely. Among the
other accomplishments she displayed were
single foot, running trot, side march,
counter march, see-saw and Spanish trot
all under the saddle.
The next horse to be shown was Match
less, Kentucky bred bay gelding, raised
by McGrath. His pedigree is very long
one. He is going on 6 years and is 10
hands high. For knee action Matchless
is considered the speediest horse in the
country. He is the leader in Hermann s
tandem team. Matchless and My Queen
stood him in $4,000 and cannot be bought.
The third one of the horses brought
down by Professor Hermann is Cockrobin,
a superb chestnut gelding Is IA hands
high, of California breed. This animal
has naturally arched neck of such ex-
quisite curve that it would rouse the adj
miration of a sculptor. 1t is seldom that
horse is met with who has such proud
bearing as Cockrobin. He is used on the
wheel in the tandem. At the San Fran
cisco horse show Cockrobin took the blue
ribbon. Hermann bought this splendid
highstepper from M. T. Kearney of Fresno
for $3.50. He is anxious now to pay
$4,000 and more for horse that will match
Cockrobin, and his wish is so strong that
in order to secure such an animal he will
pay $500 commission to any one who finds
the steed. Cockrobin is a good traveller
who can do better than 2:40 with road
wagon.
Hermann rolling stock consists of an
English tandem cart by Studebaker,
Kensington by Brewster and four-in-
hand by Hanley. Matchless and Cockrob-
in were driven in the tandem cart by
Mr.. and Mrs. Hermann yesterday after
noon.

He was accordingly asked to resign at
any time during. the day he saw fit.
The next question was that of ap-
pointing his successor. While this is
responsibility that usually devolves
upon the sheriff, Mr.. Holmberg asked
that the commissioners name some one
whom they thought would do the work
satisfactorily. Accordingly, ex-Ald.
Lawrence, from the Eighth ward, was
selected for the responsible position.
His term of office commenced immedi-
ately, and last night he was placed in
charge of the Jail for the first time.
Sheriff Holmberg said last night: ct

system is working, for I believe that
we cannot be too careful in charge of
county's prisoners. l should not have

slaughter in the first degree, was all
In last night, that of the defense taking
but very few minutes. During the
afternoon A. H. Hall was placed on
the stand and related the ante-mor-
tenn statements of the dead Max Pei
CERT. He said that Peigert admitted
that there was trouble between him
self and Rotzell during the evening
on which the tragedy occurred, and in
the course of time Kleinschmidt be-
came mixed up in 1t. Peigert admit
ted that he went up stairs to get the
gun when the trouble first commenced,
and he stated that Kleinschmidt cut
him in two places, although he did
not indicate where they were. When
1t was proposed to admit the testimony
of Hall there was a sharp fight be-
tween County Attorney Nye and At
torney Morris. The question involved
was whether or not Peigert knew
when he made his ante-mortem state
ment that he was about to die, and
that there was no chance whatever Of
his recovery. If such were the case,
the statement was about to be admit
ted. Attorney Morris held that it was
not true, but Judge Pond overruled
him, and certain sections of the testi-
mony were admitted.

NO ALLIANCE MADE.
Japanese Deny Any Combine With
China.

YOKOHAMA, April 22.-The follow
ing is the text of the statement is
sued by the japanese government,
denying the report that it has con-
cluded an offensive and defensive al
lance with China and declaring that
the commercial advantages secured
by Japan will also be enjoyed by the
other powers under the favored nation
clause:
MisapprehensionS are reported to be
current in Europe IN regard to the
terms of the JapanChina treaty. 1t
has been represented that Japan has
secured two per cent ad valorem
duty on imports, instead of specific
duties, and has also formed an Of
fensive and defensive alliance with
China. The commercial concessions
ready secured by the treaty powers
under the favored nation clause COM
prise the right to navigate the Yang
Use Kiang to Chung King and also
Woon Sung river and the canals lead
ing to Foo Chow and Hank Chow and
the right to import machinery and
certain goods duty-free, and to es-
tablish1 factories. These concessions
are not exclusive to Japan; they nat
urally extend to the European powers,
in view Of the favored nation clause.
In securing these privileges for all,
Japan expects the approval of all the
powers. The reported offensive and
defensive alliance does not exist.

WILLIAM WAS WEARY.
A Night Waterman at the Jail Is
Caught Manning

Sheriff Holmberg's plan of suryeiI-
lance over the night Waterman at the
county jail has borne fruit. One of
the Watchmen, William Hemperley.
has lost his position as a result of his
negligence, and it is not likely there
Will be a recurrence of his behavior.
at least during the reign of the present
sheriff. Sunday night Hemperley
closed up the jail at II o'clock, accord
ing to his usual custom. At IL 80 the
A. ID. L. office called him up, but
there was no response. A messenger
was Immediately dispatched to arouse
the slumbering jailer,. but Hemperley
was sleeping the sleep that King Gam
brinus sometimes imposes on his de-
voted subjects, and messenger bows
might come and go, it was all one to
MIN. Five messengers were sent in
all, but none were able to secure an
audience with William.
Fear that something might have
happened to the night jailer and grave
suspicious of jail delivery induced
the A. d. I. office to send another
boy to the residence of Sheriff Holm
berg. In company with Night Watch
man Gaylord at the court house and
Mike Kierce,, the jailer the boy finally
succeeded in waking the sheriff.
Holmberg was very much surprised
when aroused from his SAUNDERS and
he Immediately made his way into the
Jail from the house entrance, attired in
a negligee suit. Search of the cell
rooms was made and it was found
that everything was quiet, and all
of the prisoners were present Then
trip was made to the room over the
jail office where the night Waterman
is supposed to while his hours away.
Wrapped in the arms of Morpheus.
Jailer Hemperley sat on the couch
which is in the room for the com
fort of the night jailer. A strong
odor of alcohol permeated the atmos-
phere and it was some seconds be-
fore he could be brought to a reaiiz-
ing sense of the responsibility which
rested upon him. He was finally
awakened and remained so during the
rest of the night 80
Sheriff Holmberg quickly appraised
the county commissioners of the facts
in the case. and one of the things
taken up yesterday morning was
Hemperley's case.
The situation was discussed, and most
of the commissioners regretted that
such an action was necessary for the

Signal Plan Worked Well (
on a Watc Imam.

Judge Elliott disposed Of two
cases yesterday afternoon, which, a
short time ago, would have taken
several days before there would have
been a decision. They were the Min
neapolis Trust company, as receiv-
err, against the Minnesota Agricult-
ural company ct al, and the Mime
apolis Trust company, as receiver
of the Alpha State Bank, L. F. Me-
mage ct al, to secure possession of
certain securities held by these cor
porations and place them in the
hands of the receiver to be realized
upon.
Attorney Hale appeared for the
receiver and the defendant in
neither case put in an appearance,
hence there was no legal fight.
The first was to recover for the re-
ceiver bonds of the Chicago Dock
and Investment company, amount
ing to 100000 par value; Northwest
ern Trust company, amounting to
100000 par value, and bonds of the
West Pullman company, amount
ing to $4,000. These were used as
collateral to secure three Menage
notes given to the Minnesota Ag-
ricultural company. Judgment was
entered for the receiver after Wit
ness Norris had been placed upon
the stand to show that the collateral
used was the property of the cor
poration, the Northwestern Guar
anty Loan company, and not Me-
mage.
The collateral possession of which
was asked in the second suit con-
sists of Western real estate at Sc
attic, Puget Sound and other far
Western points, together with Puget
Sound bonds amounting to sos, 1000
par value, and bonds of the Home
stead Building company, amounting
to 6O,OOO, with other similar collat-
eral. There was no opposition, and
after hearing Witness PercivaI and
the argument of Attorney Hale.
Judge Elliott entered a judgment in
favor of the plaintiff
Charles A. Hamlin, as assistant
secretary of the Minnesota Trust
company, was present. and when
questioned as to the value of the
collateral and real estate involved,
replied that it was of little or no
value, and it will be extremely diff
cult to realize upon it. The action
was brought in order to clear up the
immense estate and to permit the
receiver to put it in shape SO that
1t might be settled as quickly as
possible.

Inc following imperial proclama-

Through peace national prosperity

rupture of relations with China
forced upon us a war which, after
the lapse of ten months, is not yet
ended. During this period our min
listers, in concert with the army navy

10 further our aims in obedience to
our instructions. Our ardent desire
with the assistance of our subjects,
IN loyalty and sincerity, is to

ana thereby attain our object, the
promotion of national prosperity.
NOW that peace is negotiated and
armistice proclaimed, permanent
cessation of hostilities is near at
hand.s The terms of peace fixed by
our ministers Of state give us COM
plete satisfaction. The peace and
glory thus secured renders the pres
ent a fitting time to enlighten you
as to the course of our future pol
icy.
We are rejoiced at the recent
victories which have enhanced the
glory of our empire. At the same
tune we are aware that the end of
Tue road which must be travelled by
the11empire in the march of civiliza-
non is still far distant, and remains
yet to be attained. We therefore
hope, in common with our loyal sub
Jects, that we shall always guard
against elf-contentedness, but, in a
spirit Of modesty and humility,
strive to perfect our military defense
Without falling into extremes. In
short, it is our wish that the gov
eminent and the people alike shall
work, to common end, and that our
subjects of all classes strive each
in his sphere for the purpose of lay
ing the Foundation of permanent

pecially as regards China.

mas ever been derived from it. The
machinery was loaned out to persons

Court House as a Hospital.

A number of the aldermen are of the
opinion that the easiest way to settle
the city hospital matter would be to
allow the property to go under the
mortgage foreclosure. With this ac-
complished, the idea is to secure the
old court house site and buildings for
the use OF a city and county hospital.
The county commissioners yesterday
received communication from the
city council asking if it would be will
ing to pass the title to. the city. The
matter was referred to the county at
torney, who will report upon the legal
ity of such a transfer. 1t is estimated
with the present sheriffs residence,
jail and court house, it would be pos
sible, with the expenditure of 10000, TO
transform the buildings into a first
class hospital.
