IRRITATING TO The JAPS
ACTION OF NEUTRAL NATIONS
IN SUPPLYING THE RUSSIAN
SHIPS CRITICISED.
THOUGHT THEY WOULD GET FAIR PLAY
DID NOT EXPECT TO
HAVE TO PLAY LONE HAND
AGAINST EUROPE.

London, Nov. 28.-Baron Suyematsu,
son-in-laW of Marquis Ito, president of
the Japanese privy council, whose
comment was fully indorsed by Baron
Hayashi, the japanese minister here,
discussing the irritation of Japan at
the continued supply of British coal
to vessels of the Russian Second Pa
cific squadron, said:
"We feel strongly that Europe in
general is assisting Russia in "a way
we never contemplated. Even in Eng:
land individuals are rendering Indirect
assistance. Although do not think
that Japanese are unduly nervous re
garding the effect of the arrival Of the
Russian squadron in the far East it
would never have been able to pntzto
sea but for the assistance Of subjects
of neutral states, in some cases more
or less officially connived at. With
out English coal the Russian squadron
could not have gone far, and it is my
belief that when contraband is being
carried on in such a wholesale fashion,
the government concerned should take
steps to prevent a continuance of ac-
tion prejudicial to another nation, ses.
pecially an ally. There is all the great.
er necessity for this when the action
is prejudicial to the interests OF both
nations. The value Of the alliance to
both Japan and Great Britain is unde.
niable and therefore it is the bounded
duty of both to do everything possible
to cement it, even to the extent OF in.
venting means for doing so when they
do not already exist"

GREAT WESTERN ROAD SOLD
PERsIsTENTLY REPORTED THAT
UNION PACIFIC HAS BOUGHT
THE MAPLE LEAF.
Chicago, Nov. 2S.-The Post says

Chicago, Nov. 28.-The Post says
The report that the Union Pacific
has purchased the Chicago Great West.
ern road was reiterated during the
afternoon with such positiyeness and
circumstantial evidence in its favor
that it received general acceptance.
The deal, which has been pending ipr
some time, was said to have been
closed and the Chicago Great Western
will shortly lose it's identity as an in.
dependent road and either be wholly
absorbed by the Union Pacifc=it itself
or distributed piecemeal among the
Eastern connections of that system.
One report has it that the Chicago
Great western will be divided between
the Chicago and Northwestern and the
Milwaukee and st. Paul systems, both
of which have for several years been
close connections of the Union Paci-
fic. The Northwestern, it is said, will
take that portion of the Maple Leaf
which runs from Marshalltown, Ia, to
Kansas City, and the Milwaukee and
St. Paul will take the st. Paul end of
the line.
There is another view of the case,
however, which is that the Union Pa
cifc will keep the Maple Leaf and
operate it as the Eastern end Of its
own system. 1t will, it is declared,
give the Union Pacific a very good
outlet from Omaha to Chicago and the
short line from Omaha to ST. Paul.

PATTERSON CASE POSTPONED.
fitness Of 4 Juror May Necessitate a
N0W Trial. 80

New York, Nov. 28.-After a respite
of two days on account of Thanksgiv-.
Ing holiday, the trial of Nan Patter-s
son for the murder of Caesar Young
was continued in the criminal branch
of the supreme court. The attorneys.
In the case took advantage of the re-
cess to exert all their energies toward
bringing closer together the material
points upon which depends the sue
cess or failure of their case. Rumor,
which has figured prominently in the.
case since the trial began, also was
active during the interval. One ofsthe5
stories which gained wide circulation
and which, if true, undoubtedly would
have added materially to the. sensa
tional side of the trial, was to the eff
feet that j . Morgan Smith, Nan Pat
terson's brOther-in-laW, who fed after
he had been subponaed to appear be-.
fore the grand jury, had bee found
and was locked up at police healquar-s
ters. This report was denied by the
police. The prosecution has kept up
an unremitting search for Smith ever
since he disappeared. They charge
that it was Smith who purchased the
revolver with which Young was shot
and that he would prove to be their
strongest witness if he could be found.

Miss Patterson was in court when
the adjournment was announced. She
expressed keen disappointment at the
sudden and unexpected interruption in
the progress of the trial.
