Otis A. Poole, of Yokohama, japan,
was guest at the Ryan yesterday.
Mr.. Poole is a heavy exporter of Japan
tea, having gone from this country
some ten years ago When seen by a
G o e reporter last night, he said
some interesting things about affairs
in the island kingdom.
He said: THE long cherished desire
CT the more progressive element of the
japanese is to be masters Of Asia and
leaders of the world These were the
words of a gentleman standing at the
head Of the educational world of ia
pan, uttered before large audience Of
representative educators gathered in
Yokohama last fall. This is, I think,
a very good description of the motive
which has prompted the Japanese peo-
pie in the rapid strides which they
have made in the direction Of modern
civilization This ambition has not been
given birth to during the last few
years, nor during the last twenty-five
years, but 1t is a characteristic Unborn
in the more enlightened Japanese peo-
pie. The attention Of the outside world
has only been called to their spirit of
advancement in all matters of science.
art, political economy and trade since
the ChineSe-Japanese war. The schools
Of Japan, when looked at from an
Oriental point of view, are very good
for 1t must be remembered that there
is great difference between the Orient
al and English methods of instruction
as we'll as in all other things. There
are excellent native schools scattered
through all the provinces, and the at
tendance is largely compulsory
Japan is now covered with a network
of narroWgauge railroads, several are
nowSbeing built, and the work on one
Of the inland roads will be completed
soon. The mountainous prospect of
the country necessitates the building
of narrow-gauge railroads only. One
OF the principal exports from this
country to Japan has been locomotives.
The japanese are unable to make their
own engines by reason Of the fact that
they have no iron ore, and engine
building is one Of the sciences which
the japanese know little about. 1 be-
ieVe there was a locomotive built in
Japan lately, but it was found that it
was cheaper to patroniZe the American
industries for the iron steeds Very
little, If any, foreign capital is being
Invested in any part of Japan, as the
japanese will not allow It, They are
afraid Of foreigners getting the as
cendancy and therefore exclude any,
thing that is foreign. A man can't
even buy house and lot there except
in the districts set aside in the foreign
concession clause of our treaty
The annual exports Of tea from
Japan amount to, in round numbers

year will fall way short of that. which
is caused, L think, by the existing low
price OF the commodity in the United
states. At the present low prices, tea
men make a very small margin off the
product. On account of the tariff
measures which were proposed and
those actually passed, affecting the
Japan imports into this country, es-
pecially the silk imports, the Japanese
people feel quite indignant. For the
Hrst time in q dozen years or more
there were no Salutes fired on Fourth

proposed to send the electricity all this

large plant now being built at Rat
Portage for that purpose, and will be
sent the 131 miles over the wire with
less of only one-fifth Of it's original

that this would be impracticable, but
the scheme by which the undertaking
is to be accomplished was secured from

EIGHT INDICTMENTS GONE.
William f. RickeI Now Has But One
to Confront

Only one Indictment is now outstanding Of
the nine originally found against William
F. Bickel. OF the two indictments remain
ing after Mr.. BickePs last acquittal, one was
nolled yesterday afternoon by County At
torney Anderson. This was the Indictment
returned June "a. which included the same
charges as those embraced by the last in
dictment on which Mr.. Bickel was tried, and
which resulted in a verdict OF acquittal.
This leaves but one more mathematician
charging the larceny from John Musser Of
the promissory notes executed to Musser by
st. Aubin and Dion.
When Mr.. Bickel and his attorney, w. H.
Mcdonald appeared in the criminal court
yesterday forenoon, Mr.. Mcdonald moved
that the trial Of the two remaining cases be
proceeded with at once. County Attorney
Anderson did not think he could consent to
set the cases for immediate trial, since there
were severaliail cases awaiting trial. and they
took preference over all others The coun-
ty attorney then asked the court to MOLE
the Indictment charging grand larceny from
the bank. The court granted the motion.
1t was the opinion Of Judge Willis that the
Jail cases ought to be tried first, and it was
suggested that the Musser case go over till
February.
To this Mr.. Mcdonald strenuously objected.
For nearly a year his client had been living
in the shadow of these indictments. 1t was
time that the clouds were pushed away. Mr..
Bickel had at hand opportunity to engage
in business and earn something for his fam
lily, and he wished to take advantage of it.
There was chance, counsel asserted, of
securing q conviction in this case. The trial
would be nothing more serious than a judi
cial form.
The court and Mr.. Anderson agreed that
there might be an interval in the trial of the
Jail cases which would allow the Bckel case
to be called and the case will come up again
Tuesday morning.
OF the nine indictments found against
William F. Bickel, nine have been disposed
CT as follows:
Mr. Bickel has been tried on three, to-wit:
The recent one charging grand larceny from
the Minnesota Savings bank; that charging
larceny from Lucus and that charging the
theft from Hulda Peterson. The first two
went to the jury and resulted in Verdicts OF
acquittal while in the Hulda Peterson case
the court directed verdict of not guilty. Two
indictments have been nolled and three more
were quashed because OF the presence of q
nonresident on the grand jury.

HOW DID HE GET THEREf
Ole Bergh Found in n Barn Near
Hamrn's Brewery.

Ole j. Bergh, living at the lodging house at
410h Jackson street, was found by the
police in a shed near Hamms brewery yes
terday morning at o'clock. AS he was
bleeding from cuts in his head he was taken
to the police station and his wounds dressed
by DR.. Leavitt. He was taken to the central
station at o'clock and at the suggestion
of the city physician sent to the city hos
pital Bergh claims that he was assaulted
at lodging house at 4121s Jackson street
without cause. An investigation by the po-
lice brought out the statement that he had
forced his way into the house and had been
thrown out by the proprietor. His wounds
are not serious and no arrests will be made
until he is able to appear in court and swear
to a COMPLAINT.

p. St. Julian Cox III.

Word has been received from Los Angeles,
Cal. that f. st. Julian Cox, once a prominent
attorney of this state, now a resident of that
city, is seriously i'll. On the afternoon Of
Jan. he was found lying on the sidewalk
at the foot Of the stairs leading to his office.
The sidewalk about him was spattered with
blood 1t was thought at first that he was
bleeding to death from hemorrhage of the
lungs, but he was taken to the hospital where
it was found that the blood came from a can
cerous wound on the tongue. The hemorrhage
was checked, and later he was taken to his
home. The latest advices received indicate
that Judge Cox is doing as well as could be
expected, though he is very weak.

1T DOoMs MOSHIK.
Document Filled With Gov. CIough
Yesterday Is Momentous.

Gov Clough yesterday received from Clerk
Dickey, of the district court of Hennepin
county. the certified transcript of the pro-
ceedings in the case OF John Moshik a few
weeks ago, for the murder of a man named
Lemke. The certificate is unusual in form,
being handsomely done in pen work ON heavy
board, instead of being simply typewriter as
is usual. The new plan is very pretty but
somewhat inconvenient for the officials
whose duty 1t is to look after the execution,
as the sheriff is supposed to carry it with
him when he reads the death warrant and
the records makes a roll two feet long and
three inches or more in diameter.

His Lecture.

His Lecture.
'Cheiro is one of the interesting figures
in a quiet way, of this time. A palmist can
not expect to shine in the blaze of noon
day fame; the art is occult in O. certain
sense; it is romantic, it is of exceptional
interest. To vulgarize palmistry would be
to f1aunt it out like silverware. The glamour
of shade and silence and poetry must be
about it. And it follows, as the night the
day. that the palmist has leaning toward
being a poet" says Mary Abbott in the
Chicago Times Herald. Cheiro writes very
taking verse. He likes it; he clings to it; he
recites it. Unfortunately, he cannot make
living, not a living of $4,000 a year, as
he does out of his lectures hands. and
SO palmistry is Cheiro's business, and poetry
is his pleasure.
Cheiro will lecture next Monday evening
in the Peoples church. He will give stere-
opticon views of normal and abnormal hands,
hands Of famous persons, etc.
