London, Aug. 17.-It Is learned that
Japan has made a demand on China,
practically in the nature Of an ulti-
matum, that she Immediately enforce
her neutrality in the case Of the pro-
tected cruiser Askold and the torpedo
boat destroyer Grosvoi, now at Shang-
hal. Japan pointed out that the time
limit, "A hours, permitted by interna-
tional law, had expired, and that jap
an, therefore, was at liberty to take
such action as may seem 10 her ex-
pedient.
Japan Is in Earnest.
At the japanese legation here it was
expressly stated that the Toxic govern
ment had no intention of remaining
quiescent if Russia attempts TO com
pei China TO give asylum to her men
of-war and authorize repairs at her
ports which would enable them to re-
sumo belligerent operations. Should
China fail to comply Immediately with
Japan's operations, the division Of
Japanese warships nov in the vicinity
of Shanghai will, the legation declares,
be instructed TO enter the port and
capture the Askold and Grosovoi, Is
was done in the case of the RyeShitel-
nj. Japan has made no secret of her
intention. but has not consulted the
powers, believing that the matter is
one which concerns herself alone.
Japan is prepared, the legation fur
Their asserts, to recognize Chinese lei
trality only so long as it is respected
by Russia.
Che Foo Practically a Russian Base.
With regard to the Ryeshitelni,
Japan, it is asserted, is determined
not to comply with the Chinese de-
mand, submitted in compliance with
the Russian note, that the vessel be
returned to Che Foo. Japan insists
that to all intents and purposes Che
Foo has been a Russian base during
the war, Chinese jUnks having been
fitted out there and sent through Jap
anese blockading vessels to Port Ar
No answer has yet been given Japan
to the Russian protest in the case OF
the Ryeshitelni, but when it is made,
it will be communicated to all the
poTers.

FIREMAN'S FUND INSURANCE
COMPANY A LOCAL CONCERN
Rapid Growth of Great Financial
Organization That Is Typically
Californian.

1T was in 1862 that William Holdredge
conceived the idea of organizing fire in
surance company that would be a Cali
1ornla concern. He put his ideas to
number of then prominent merchants and
capitalists and in August of 1862 the Fire
mans Fund Insurance Company became
reality with a capital of 500 600.
Where thousands were invested in in
surance in the early sixties millions are
represented now. The last statement of
the Firemans Fund shows that the COM
pany income is a total of s., ,470, 1873 for
the year. The losses paid during that
time were 81, ,293 SOS O7 on fire risks and
$Sl1,3S4 81 on marine risks. The net sur
plus in 1904 is 81, ,156, us 50. The investments
nave been judiciously placed and its as
sets are based on the best of securities.
The officers Of the Firemans Fund are:
William ]. Dutton president; Bernard
Faymonville, vice president; ]. B. Levi
son. second vice president: Louis Vein
assistant secretary; r. b. Fabj general
agent, and f. w. Lougee, treasurer.
MT. Dutton came to San Francisco in
lsoS and is son Of Henry Dutton,
reYered pioneer. In 1867 he first saw serv-
Ice with the company and from that time
on he rose rapidly.
Mr.. Faynonville came to California in
1877 and settled in Fresno where he soon
agencies in the State. He accepted a
position with the Fireman's Fund in 1881
as special agent and adjuster and his
promotion was made in steady steps from
that on.
Mr.. Levison cast his lot with the Fire
mans Fund in October 1890, when he left
the old Anglo-Nevada Insurance Com
pany. whose marine business was abb
sorbed by the Firemans Fund in that
year.
Mr.. Weinmann first saw service with
the company al Benicia where he acted
as local agent. In 1900 he was chosen
secretary. In January 1902. Mr.. Mendell
was elected assistant secretary. Mr.. Fabj
succeeded Stephen Ives as general agent.
Mr.. Lougee was elected treasurer in 1895.
The general offices of the Fireman's
FUND in this city are at the southwest
corner of Sansome and California streets

request of the prosecution. he re-

THE result was" states the report,

is thus shown, Sir Forrest Fulton was
responsible for the miscarriage of JUS
tice. He still holds his $4,000 a year
office, and there is no indication that
he will be asked ito resign it.
EXPERTS WARPED EVIDENCE.
T. H. Gurrin. a handwriting expert
employed by the treasury. declared let
ters written by Beck and Smith to be
in the same hand. An examination of
fac-similes of Smiths and Beck's hand
writing shows there is hardly any re-
semblance between them. Gurrin con-
tinues to be employed by the treasury
as a handwriting expert.
Beck bore only a general resemblance
TO Smith. A comparison of the record
of Smiths identification marks in the
possession of the police with Becks
features would have shown that he was
ltOl Dul the uOAlC PROSECUTOR,
whose zeal procured the conviction OF
an innoc mt man. appears never to have
consulted this record. He gets a big
salary, but his neglect will cost him no
more than the censure implied in the
commissions report.
BLUNDER REPEATED.
After Beck had been three years in
Jail he did succeed in satisfying the
Home Office that he was not Smith.
But it led to no revision of his case
His petitions were read and pigeon
holed as before.
The fact is" says the report, that
if there had been any one in the Home
Office in the chain Of subordination up
to the permanent Under Secretary,
whose legal training had enabled him
TO convey in a minute the real nature
of the miscarriage. the attention of
that official must have been called to
the case in such fashion as to COM
pei intervention"
When Reck was arrested a second
time as Smith and second time tried
and convicted, the Home Office never
communicated to the police the fact
that he had proved he was not Smith
For these gross blunders no one is
TO be discharged. and the nation will
continue 70 pay s7so,000 a year for the
