JAPAN SEEKING
INTERVENTION
Special Dispatch to The can.

CALL BUREAU, HOTEL BARTON.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 27.-With win
ter fast approaching To put an end to
active campaigning in Manchuria; with
the japanese beginning the final des-
perate assault on Port Arthur, as the
Russian Baltic feet progresses toward
the Far Last in its purpose to raise
the siege; with japan open to media
tion and Russia sDurning it; with
Japan constantly negotiating great
loans and Russia employing Lewis
Nixon TO build new navy, the Russo
japanese war seems to be near the
end Of its first stage. IL can be stated
that Russia hopes TO end the conflict
within ten months.
1t is now expected that diplomacy
VIII make q great effort to forward
peace. All powers save Russia are anx-
ious TO end the war. Prince Fushimi
of Japan, VINO is now in this country,
has not disclosed any purpose of his
visit except TO see the President and
the Worlds Fair, but it is believed by
diplomats here that behind this there
was something far more important.
The fact that Prince Fushimi had two
conferences with Secretary Hay while
he was in Washington is most signifi-
cant.
Officials here regard as of great sig
nificance the statement of Delcasse III
the French Chamber of Deputies yes
terday in support of the Franco Rus
sian alliance. No less significant is the
statement of the French committee on
foreign budget that Already Japan
has made known the conditions on
which she is ready to close hostilities.
These consist in the return of Man
churia to China etc
IT is thought that this may be the
clew to Prince Fushimi's real mission
to the United States. The United
States is vitality interested in the re-
turn of Manchuria to the Chinese. Sec
retarX Hays policy in support of the
integrity Of China contemplated the
evacuation of Manchuria by the Rus
slams on October S, 1903. Failure so to
do deeply irritated the State Depart
ment. The restoration of Manchuria
to China is made a point of common
American and japanese interest by the
desire of the Japanese Government to
make it one of the conditions of peace.
The United States might not be ap-
preached with propriety by Japan with
a request to intervene, but it is be-
lieved Prince Fushimi has broached
the subject of the fate of Manchuria
when peace shall have been restored.

LION ATTACKS
BRAVE TRAINER
FerOcious Sultan Springs
on Charles Hendricks as
He StumbleS in the Cage
CROWD PANIC-STRICKEN
Victim Retains Presence Of
Mind and Frightens the
Beast With a Pistol Shot

A thousand men, women and chill
dren swarmed Danic-stricken out of
the Chutes zoo shortly after IL o'clock
yesterday morning when Sultan, the
ferocious lion, attacked his brave
trainer, Charles Hendricks. while the
latter was lying helplessIy at the feet
of the blood-thirsty beast. After the
brute had sunk his claws into the leg
of the unfortunate man, Hendricks re-
gained his presence of mind and fired
his pistol several times, frightening
the lion away and giving the attend
ants time to drag the trainer from the
cage before he was torn to pieces
Hendricks entered the cage of the
lion as usual to give a public exhibit
ton. As he walked jauntily toward
the corner where the enormous beast
was crouching, quivering and ready to
spring, Hendricks slipped and fell. A
cry of horror arose from the spec
tators just as the maddened beast
pounced on his trainer, who was max
ing valiant efforts to rise.
The lion sank his massive claws
into the fleshy part of Hendricks leg
and with a roar was preparing to tear
him to pieces when the trainers pres-
ence of mind saved his life. He
quickly pulled out his revolver, which
he always carries. and fired several
blank cartridges in the face of the
big beast This served to daze and
partially subdue Sultan. and while he
stood gazing bewildered on the pros
trate form of his trainer several at
tendants came to the rescue and took
Hendricks out of the cage.
Meanwhile the crowd in the place
was transformed almost into a fren-
zied mob. Men and women ran
hither and thither, screaming and
shouting. The very spectacle of the
lion springing on the trainer served
to make many sick. 1t was some time
before order could be restored in the
zoo.
Hendricks waSremoved to his home
and put under the care of a physician.
He was found to be suffering from a
painful wound in the fleshy part of the
leg. but there is no danger of serious
consequences. The trainer was badly
shaken up by the sudden attack.

Bold Burglar Will
Be Brought Up
From South.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 27.-Chief of
Police Hodgkins of Oakland will leave
for home tomorrow having in custody
p. David -Kiniry, alias Fred West. all
round burglar, professional porch
climber and the supposed murderer of
Patrolman Smith of the Oakland Po-
lice Department. But for the fact that
the Oakland officers feel confident of
their ability to convict him of murder.
the Los Angeles authorities would not
surrender Kiniry. for there are no less
than twentysix cases of burglary and
one of attempted murder against him
here, with evidence sufficient to convict
in practically all of them. Inasmuch as
the murder charge is so much more i'm
portant, however, the crook will be sur
rendered to Oakland and there tried for
his life. If he is not convicted Kiniry
will be either turned over to the San
Francisco authorities and tried for sew
eral big burglaries committed in that
city, or returned to Los Angeles for
trial
Chief Hodgkins declares that he has
sufficient evidence to convict the man
of murder, despite the fact that the
evidence against him is almost wholly
circumstantial. Just what the evidence
is will, of course, not be disclosed until
IiiC ScSN ID lllcO, DuI I1OuShlHS,
his three days stay in Los Angeles,
has discovered evidence which will
serve to greatly strengthen the chain
of circumstances which seems to in
dicate the prisoners guilt.
Kiniry himself has repeatedly stated
that verdict of guilty against him
would cause him no surprise. In an
unguarded moment he dropped a re-
mark to a fellow prisoner in the CITY
Jail here which indicates that he would
take desperate chances in any effort
which would prevent his going to Oak
land for trial. After he had been in
formed that the Oakland Chief of Po-
lice was here and would take him away
in day or two Kiniry said:
Well, it s long trip to Oakland and
he hasn't got me there yet You may
hear something about that trip later"
Hodgkins will take no chances with
his prisoner. The man will be hand
cuffed and shacI1led and will wear an
Oregon boot" Unless friends attempt
the foolhardy plan of trying to rescue
him there is hardly a possibility of his
escaping, for he has barely recovered
from a pistol shot wound which would
have killed some men and can hardly
walk. Two deputy sheriffs of this
county will be on the same train tax
ing prisoners to San Quentin and the
officers will pool issues" making any
attempt to escape hazardous under
taking.

CHARGES MADE AGAINST
AN AMERICAN CONSUL
Charles Winans Said to Have Given
Improper Bills of Health
in Chile.

LIMA, Peru. Nov. 27.-It is re-
ported here that Senior Martinez, the
Chilean Minister to the United States,
will request the State Department at
Washington to cancel the authorize
tion of Charles S. Winans. American
Consul at Iquique, to take charge for
time of the Peruvian consulate at
that place. The request, it is stated,
will be founded on a charge that
Winans has given improper bills of
health to steamships leaving Iquique.
While the prevalence of bubOnic
plague has not been officially declared
in Chile, 1t is stated that there are
cases that the Chilean Government
daily conceals in order that steam
ships may not omit touching at ports
at which there are no sanitary regula-
tions. This alleged action is consid-
cred a great peril to the Peruvian
Coast, Panama and the entire country
bordering on the Southern Pacific
Ocean.
