SUNDAY
CLOSING
EFFECTED
Salem Saloon Men
Take Voluntary.
Action
Close Saturday Night and
Sunday Until the Courts De-
eide What the Laws Are

Salem saloon men have acted wisely
in deciding, in advance of any mandate
from the courts, to keep the Sunday
laws of the state.
As the result of conference, ar.
ranged through the president of the
Commercial Club, with the retail liquor
dealers and the mayor of the city, there
will be no open saloon on Sunday until
the courts decide whether Oregon has
a Sunday law or not
Some of the best lawyers say II is
very doubtful whether there is a Sun
day law or not in this state that APP
plies to Incorporated cities. But the
decision, October 4th, that Sunday
saloons are unlawful by the lower
court, and its appeal to the circuit
court, which cannot be heard for sew
eral months, has been voluntarily ac.
cepted in good faith by the liquor deal
ers of this city and thev deserve credit
for taking this action.
The case that has been appealed to
Judge Galloway's court will be heard
in due time, and in the meantime the
law will be respected The grounds
for prosecution for Sunday violations
are thus removed, and it remains TO be
seen how far the Law Enforcement
Lague will proceed with Sunday law en-
foreement in other lines.
The saloon men say if the Law En-.
forcement League is sincere in their
devotion to the Sabbath laws of our
state and if they were not engaged in
saloon prosecutions merely to carry the
local option election in November. The
Law Enforcement Leaguers should now
carry the war into Africa, and go af-
ter all other lines of business carried
ON in spite of the alleged Oregon Sun
day law.
The best and most conservative bust.
ness men say the saloon men have done
right in this matter, and have cut the
ground out from under the feet of the
opposition At all events there can be
no more costs for prosecutions heaped
on the taxpayer, and no more bad adj
vertising of our city on this score.
IL is understood that prominent sa-
loon men say they will enforce the Sun
day closing law themselves against one
of their number who violates the clos
ing agreement, until the courts have
decided whether the law is constitu
tiOnal or not.
The journal believes this is one Of
the most practical steps ever taken for
the protection of all concerned, and
that great good will follow from the
spirit of fairness shown by the saloon
men of this city, in voluntarily abiding
by law that has never before been
invoked, and was not known by many
people to be on the statute books.

MRS. MAVERICK
IS RECUPERATING
Not Officially Released, But Will
Soon Have Her Freedom.

Much mystery exists regarding Mrs.
Florence Maybrick, who has been
serving long sentence In Ayles-
bury prison. England, following con-
viction of poisoning her husband, and
who was Sunday reported released.
The truth seems to be that she has
not been pardoned. She has. how
ever, been removed from prison to
some poiRt near London for purposes.
of recuperation, preparatory to re-
lease on pardon, probably in July
Her actual place of abode is con
cealed. Hon. Charles Russell says
she will soon be set at liberty.
London: If Mrs. Florence Maybrick
has been released from Aylesbury
prison on a special license she has
not yet been released from custody
and is still under the surveillance of
the prison officials. When she was
reported secretly released on Monday
of last week at a. m. she was said
to have been sent to a convalescent
home near London, where she can
enjoy semillberty until the home office
decides upon the terms OIL her Ior-
NAL release.
Hon. Charles Russell said Sunday
night: Yes, Mrs. Maybrick has been
released from Aylesbury prison, and
taken to a retreat in North London.
She will soon be restored to full lib
erty; how soon can not say"
1t is stated the following conditions
may be imposed by the special lie
ense: Mrs. Maybrick shall not appear
on the stage, shall not write book on
her prison experiences and shall not
in any way endeavor to attract pub
lie attention to herself.
The Mail says she has gone to Lv'
erpool. The police say she was sent
either to Pentonville or Woking.

The wreck was caused by the snap

THE cZAR REJECTS
IAPAN'S TERMS.
Asserted That Sense Of Answer Has
Been Transmitted to Toxic.

London: 1t Is asserted by the Daily
Graphic that II is in a position to at
firm that Russia declines to agree TO
the integrity Of China, which was in.
sisted upon by Japan. The reply, as
serts the Graphic, is couched In cour-
teous but incorporating terms.
It Is further stated that while the
reply has not yet been officially pre-
sented to Japan its contents have
been communicated to M. KurinO, the
Japanese minister at st. Petersburg,
who has transmitted the contents to.
Toxic, whence It will be conveyed to
the friendly powers.
The clause proposed by Japan was
that Russia and Japan should mH-
tually agree to respect the Integrity
and independence Of China and
Korea"
Russia 'Ias. now stricken out twice
the words China and" and Il is un-
derstood that this will close the nego.
tiations.
1t is probable. the Daily Graphic
goes on, that when this note has been
presented Japan will notify Baron de
Rosen, the Russian minister at Toxic,
that she has no alternative but to
tako up arms in defense OF her inter-
ests. and that NJ. Kurino will be in.
structed to demand his passports.
The foregoing receives certain sup

text of the reply is still liable to
amendment at the hands OF the car.
Some press kilograms from Paris
are also gloomy. practically with the
statements printed in the Graphic.
They add that NJ. Delcasse, the French
foreign minister, has lost his former
confidence that peace would be main.

anxiety.

animation. declared that he made no
promise Of immunity from prosecution
to d. d. Groff.
Inspectors Williams and Farrell de-
tailed their conversations in Toledo
with DR.. and Mrs. Lorenz prior to their
arrest. From Mrs. Lorenz. they said,
they had secured a statement that she
had never known or heard of d. B.
Groff; that she had received no checks
from him. and had no knowledge of
her husbands receiving any. In answer
to various questions put to Mr. Lo-
REM, both Inspectors stated that the

RUSSIA PERMITS
ANOTHER DELAY
Every Effort Is Being Made to Avoid
q Rupture With japan.

Paris Another delay has occurred
in framing and forwarding the Rus
sian answer to the latest Japanese
note, and this will result in further
averting the elimination of the crisis
until the last of this week.
The official advices received here
from st. Petersburg Sunday. although
somewhat negative. gave definite de-
tails of the status of the note and
low.
Count Lamsdorff, the Russian For
eign Minister, expected that the ex-
changes going on would have permit
ted the final drafting of the answer
so that it could have been presented
to the car Saturday for his approval,
but the expectation was not realized.
and. as a matter of fact, the answer
has not yet been finally drafted.
It was therefore determined to de.
fer its submission to the czar until
some time this week.
Efforts are still being made to so
shape this answer as to prevent a
rupture.
This new delay is interpreted as
slightly improving the situation, as
it indicates, it is asserted here, that
Russia is making extreme efforts to
bring the answer within limits ac-
cePtable to Japan.
1t is understood that the Empress
of Russia has an affection of the ear,
which may necessitate an operation.
This fact is considered as having
some bearing upon the time when
the answer will be submitted to the
car for approval. In any event. of.
fcials here are confident that definite
results will be known next Thursday,

WHOLE TRAIN DESTROYED
IN ARKANSAS WRECK
Newsboy Sees Danger and Warns

Newport. Ark: The worst wreck
upon this division Of the Iron Noun
tain for many years was the one which
occurred on Tuesday night at Diaz,
Arkansas, when the. south-bound fast
express No. / crashed into the White
river branch passenger, which was
taking coal on the main line at the
Diaz chutes.
The express train was running near
ly sixty miles an hour when It struck
the rear end OF the other train stand.
ing and plowed its way through the
entire length. OF the same, completely
demolishing every coach. No. rs en-
CINE was badly damaged and the mass
OF splintered rubbish was soon a
mass Of fame that. did not end until
the coal chute had been completely
demolished,
Joe Pennington, newsboy on the
branch train. was standing on the rear
end when he saw the headlight of
the oncoming train, srlsking his own
life. he ran through every coach, warn
ing the passengers of the impending
danger. Nearly all reached the ground
before the collision occurred, and it
is almost miraculous that those left
we're not killed, as the coaches were
literally splintered.
The responsibility Of the wreck lies
with the branch crew, who had no
orders to take the main track. Jack
Requa was conductor and Steve Null
len engineer. r. L. Fluke, fireman on
the st. Louis train, together with En-
gineer Hill. jumped for their lives.
but the former was so badly injured
that he later died on the way to the
hospital at st. Louis.
Nine people were seriously injured
and fatalities may result.
