Is SHROUDED IN MYSTERY.
NJ Plausible Theory Advanced for
DisappearaBcc of DIR. Hickman,
Lost on Dali Island.

The mystery surrounding the disappear
ance of Dr. r. w. Hickman. Of Tacoma,
on Dali island, Alaska, has not yet been
solved, notwithstanding the fact that
he was last heard OF three weeks ago. DR.
Hickman's wife yesterday received let
ter from one OF the men who were in his
company in Alaska stating that forty
men were searching the island where he
was last seen. and while they have tray
ersed every foot Of the place they have OBJ
tanned no clew to his disappearance.
DR.. Hickman Is a well-known Tacoma
physician and surgeon. He went to AL
aska on business errand, intending TO
hunt and fsh along the islands of South
eastern Alaska In such spare time as he
might have. He left IIowkan for Dali
island. June 2. with Hall Gould. The lat
ter left the doctor at camp while he went
off to examine n mining claim. DIR. Hick-
man. arming himself with rifle, went
ont on the search for big game
The island has been covered by the
searching party from end to end, accord
ing TO the letter received by Mrs. ffick-
man The searchers are at "A loss to
agine what fate befell the doctor. They
think that he could have followed any
one Of the numerous streams to tide water
had he been simply lost. II Is possible
that he might have encountered a silver
tip" bear and come of second best from
the encounter. SIN. had this happened
the searchers think they would have
found some trace of the missing man.

dents who were recently arrested on
charges Of perjury. James Barry ana

When the cases were called at 3 o'clock
Attorney John T. Welch, In behalf of the
defendants renewed his motion for
dismissal of the indictments upon the
grounds which Judge Hanford had upon
the day previous intimated were compe-
tent to quash them In passing upon the
demurrers, the court ruled in substance
that the indictments were defective
primarily for the reason that they did
not set forth the nature of he proceed
ing before the United States commission

was committed.
The ruling was grounded upon what
Is said by lawyers TO be a we'll founded
principle of law that an allegation of

matters at issue.

sworn before a United States commits

proof was made.

AFTER THE FALL OF TIENTsIN
Japanese Report of Non-Combatants'
 Friendly Attitude.

| Japanese Report of Non-Combatants'
 Friendly Attitude.
 | Washington, July 24-The following l telegram has been received from the | Japanese minister for foreign affairs under date of July 22, and is the report 1 of the Japanese consul at Tientsin, who | wired it on the 21st:
 "The Japanese troops behaved admir- ably and maintained strict discipline after the fall of Tientsn city. The Chinese remained in the city, and those who lived outside came to the Japanese quarters with a large flag, bearing an inscription expressing their submission to Japan, and showed their apprecia- ton of the unexceptionable behavior of our troops. They also brought to our sentry cake, fruit, and tea, in token of their friendly feeling. Our troops are thus daily gaining the confidence and respect of the native population.
 ''Tientsin city is occupied by the troops of four powers in the following sections; namely, from the north gate to the east gate by the Japanese from the east gate to the south by the Amer icans from the south to the west by the English, and from the west to the north by the French; while the Rus sians are in possession of the towns and villages on the left banks of the Pei Ho and the canal.
 "A conference was held by the gen. erals and commanding officers of the allied forces with a view of organizing military government in the city, and it was decided. after long discussion, to appoint three administrators with equal powers from among officers of the three powers, Japan, England, Russia. And finally the following officers were chosen. Lieutenant Colonel Ooki (Ja- pan), Lieutenant Colonel Boker (Eng- land), and Colonel Wogack CRussia).
 'Upon the departure of Admiral Sey- mour for Taku, Admiral Amseff has the seniority among the commanding officers here. It is admitted by all for eigners here military and civilian, that the fall of the city was mainly due to the galantry of the Japanese forces"
