Remember the Baker.

At the court of assiZes in Venice,
when sentence of death is about to be
passed, man clothed in long black
robe enters the court. and advancing
10 the bench bows profoundly to the
Judges, saying. Remember the bakerv
Then he bows again and retires. Here
is the explanation of the custom:
Three centuries ago baker was exc
cuted at Venice for a crime of which
he was not guilty. When his inno-
cence was fully proved. the judges who
condemned him invested a sum of
money, the interest on which serves to
keep a lamp perpetually lighted in the
palace of the doges, this being called
the lamp of expiation." In addition,
their fatal mistake has for 300 years
been held up as a warning to their sue
eessors OH the bench when they are
about to inflict the extreme penalty of
the law

JAPAN'S ATTITUDE IN CHINA.
Prince KOnOye Plainly States Her
Position i'm the Russian MAN.
chrian Matter

Victoria, B. c., March 12.-Prince
Konoye. president of the Japanese
house of peers, recently gave the
Japan Advertiser an interview on the
Manchurian question. As head of the
National Union League he has taken
a, prominent part in all protests against
Russia's territorial plans on Chinese
soil. ~
Japan will never consent to a Rus
sian Manchuria," said the Prince. "On
this point the government is absolutely
determined, nor should we hesitate to
take recourse to armed remonstrance
were Russia to continue in her recent
semi defiant attitude. We have the
sympathy of both the United States
and Great Britain in this matter and
know what we are doing. Japan has
no objection whatever to Russia's leas-
ing Port Arthur. 1t does not and
would not in any way menace our in
terests. AS for the trans Manchurian
railway we regard its construction
with lively satisfaction in that it will
unquestionably serve to open new
fields for foreign Industrial and COM
mercial undertakings"
Prince Konoye said Japan would not
object to the presence of Russian
troops in Manchuria along the railway
in order to keep it from attack on
the part of the natives, but Russia s
great territorial army on Chinese soil
must be withdrawn beyond the from
tier. The attitude of the United States
regarding this matter, he said, is view
ed with gratitude and respect, and she
is looked upon as the one absolutely
unselfish and strictly just Power.

and Their Ranks Likely to BE
Greatly SweIIed-Business Men
Will Confer To-day.
Boston. March 12.-With 10000 men
idle, their ranks likely to be greatly
swelled by sympathetic votes of the
Building Trades Council and the Bos-
ton Central Labor Union, which meet
tomorrow night, and the entire city
beginning to suffer from the effects of
congested traffic, the only ray of light
visible tonight is the hope that the
conference of business interests which
has been arranged for Tomorrow may
lead to a settlement of the strike
This conference, which is due in a
large measure to the influence of Gov.
Crane, was arranged late this after
the Boston Chamber of Commerce, the
Boston Associated Board of Trade and
the Boston Merchants Association,
with the State Board of Arbitration
Everybody present realized the seri-
BUSINESS of the situation, and aeter an
interchange of opinions it was decided
that the best way of getting at public
opinion would be to call a conference
of the business men of the city to
which, among others, the presidents of
the Produce Exchange, the Coal Ex-
change and of all the railways will be
invited. 1t is also hoped that Secre-
tary Easley and other representatives
of the Civic Federation may be pres
ent.
During the day Gov Crane had
long talk with the committee of the
Allied Transportation Council having
the strike in charge, but at it's conelu-
sion the committee could see no way
at present of solving the problem. La
ter he sent for Mayor Collins and the
two executives were in conference for
some time. 4 little later the Mayor
made statement that he had no pow
er to act.
Senator Hanna's Reply.
Mayor Collins received the following
reply to-day to his telegram asking
Senator NJ. A. Hanna to aid him in
putting an end to the strike:
Washington, March II, 1902.-T4on.
P. A. Collins, Boston. Telegram re-
ceived. If you will point out a way
will be glad to be of service. We
should have indica tions from both
sides that our good offices would be
acceptable. M. A. Hanna.
