special to Times-Republican.

Special to Times Republican,
Sioux City, May 31.-Ed c. Brown,
president of the failed Sheldon bank
was on trial in Judge Reeds court
yesterday for alleged Irregularities in
loaning money of the bank to himself
as member of a partnership. At
ter lengthy arguments the court ruled
in favor of the charge of fraud and
allowed the claim of the bank for So
377.64 against the bankrupt clothing
firm of n. F.. Worth.
Some twelve years ago Worth, then
travelling salesman, induced Brown to
buy q stock of goods and put him in
charge. Because Browns own notes
could not be put up at the bank,
Worth's notes were given for $6,6S3.
For ten years Worth paid interest 1T
the rate of 10 per cent. In october of
the partnership and Worth made
out new set of notes for $9,377.64,
representing all the firm owed at the
bank plus unpaid interest. In Novenl-
Der the bank failed.
w men the Oank Idlleu proceedings
were begun to force Worth into invol-
untary bankruptcy which he forestall-
by petitioning for voluntary bankrupt
cy, but in listing the liabilities Of the
CO. partnership, he omitted the claim
of the bank. The banks receiver sought
to file claim for the $9,S77.64. Attor-
neys for Hart, Schaffner & Marx, of
Chicago. leading creditors Of Worth,
argued to prevent the filing of the
banks claim, contending that the claim
was against Worth personally and not
against the partnership. The CO.
partnership had assets while Worth
was worth nothing.
Attorneys for the bank receiver
contended that the debt was origin
ally one Of COL partnership and that il
constituted fraud on the bank be-
cause the bank loaned money to firm
In which managing officer of the
bank was interested. This fraud would
would give the bank the right to recov-
err at this time.

with the contention that so long as the

ed in the state three years ago does not
obtain. The fret clips shorn are near
ly all from the warm Columbia river
ranges, which woods are more or less
earthly and are sought only by dealers
in the secured product.
There seems to be no disposition on
the part Of the growers to hold this
class Of wool, and buyers are apparent
ly glad to take them, as they are being
absorbed by the dealers as fast as they
are offered.
The choice Eastern Oregon woods
sought for shipping in the grease,
which are grown back in the interior,
are now being sown. This class that in
former years was marketed at The

tion OF receiving and shipping more
wool direct from the grower than any
other place in the United States, has,
since the completion Of the Columbia

EXCLUSION LEGAL
UNITED STATES HAS RIGHT TO De.
PORT ANARCHISTS.
Opinion Rendered by United States SD.
prsme Court In the Case Of Turner.
the HngIlsh Anarchist Chief Justice
Says Act Is Not Open to cOnstita-
tIonaI Objection.

Washington, May ls.--In an opinion
today by Chief Justica Fuller, the
United States supreme court sustained
the action Of the immigration authori-
ties at the port Of New York in order
ing the deportation Of the EngIishman,
Turner, alleged to be an anarchist.
The chief justice said In his opinion
that Turner himself did not deny that
he is an anarchist. The opinion up.
held the law for the exclusion Of an.
arGhists, and affirmed the decision Of
the circuit court for the southern die
trict Of New York, which refused writ
Of habeas corpus for Turner.
Chief Justice Fuller, in his opinion,
first reviewed the facts in the case, In.
cluding the claim Of Turner that he is
a lecturer on sociological questions,
also that his counsel contended that he
was an anarchist in theory merely.
He then referred to the fact that Turn.
er's counsel attacked the immigration
law as unconstitutional on the ground
that IT Is in contravention Of the first,
fifth and sixth amendments and also
section one Of the constitution, because
mo power is delegated by the constitu.
tion to the general government over
alien foreigners with reference to their
admission to the United States or other.
wise, or over the beliefs OF citizens,
denizens, sojourners or aliens or over
the freedom Of speech Of the press
All of these contentious were mega
tived by the decision Of the chief Just
ice, who said, among other things:
Whether rested on the accepted
principle Of International law that
every sovereign nation has the power
as inherent in sovereignty and essential
to self preservation, to forbid the en-.
trance Of foreigners within Its dominion
or to admit them only In such cases
and on such conditions as it may see fit
to prescribe, or on the power to regulate
commerce with foreign nations, which
includes the entrance Of ships, the inn
portation Of goods, and the bringing of
"ersons into the ports of the United
States, the act before ua is not open to
constitutional objection. Nor IL the
manner In which congress has exercised
the right, although when such case
arises, the objection may be taken.n

Government Expects to Investigate Ir.
rlgation In UmatiIla.

-
westinghouse consultation Of irri-
cation experts has been ordered at PEN
dleton to determine the merits Of the
Umatilla irrigation project. The re-
elamation Of between 100, 900 and 200,-
600 acres Of land, lying directly west of
Pendleton, st an elevation ranging from
500 to 900 feet above the sea is consid-
cred feasible. Examination has shown
most Of this land TO be unpatented, and
that the Northern Pacific controls the
greater portion Of the patented area
II has been found impracticable to di-
vert water from the Snake river, near
Riparia, and bring 1t onto this land,
and the experts will determine the
feasibility OF storing the food waters Of
the Umatilla river in system of res.
ervoirs. II it is found such a system is
practicable and that dams can be con-
structed on the respective reservoir
sites, and litigation can be avoided,
such as is threatened in Malheur coun-
ty, the government will turn its atten-
tion to Umatilla, and leave the NAL
heur project to be disposed of later.
The government is now satisfied that
one reservoir in township 8 north,
range 25 and 26 east, can be built to
hold sufficient water to reclaim 10000
acres, but before this project is adopted,
ii is desired to know how much addi.
tional land can be reclaimed by waters
stored in smaller reservoirs in that vi
cinity which can also be supplied by
food waters from Umatilla river. II
the board reports favorably on its ex-
animation, a special effort will be
made to perfect the plans for this irri-
cation project.

Russia VIII Mobilize All Forces Possible

Russia VIII Mobilize All Forces Possible
|. There for Its Defense.
st. Petersburg, May 19.-Advices re-
ceived by the general staff show that
the Japanese are practically masters of
all the southern end of the Lao Tung
peninsula, save Port Arthur and the
territory commanded by guns. This
result, so promptly brought about, is
due to the failure OF the Russians to
make opposition Of any consequence
to the Japanese advance.
A member Of the general staff said
to the Associated Press that the re-
moval OF the guns from the fortifica-
tions erected at Kinchau, and the des-
truction Of Port Dalny, were primarily
for the purpose of concentrating the
entire Russian force at Port Arthur.
If the men and guns were scattered,
the effect would have been to distrib-
ute the means Of defense of the fort
ress over a number Of points strate-
gically weak. To defend the whole of
the southern end of the Lao Tung PEN
insula it would have been necessary
to have an army equal TO that which
the Japanese could have landed.
The weakness of the Manchurian
army, said this officer, left only one
course to pursue, namely, that o. mo.
bilizing sufficient troops at Port Arthur
to hold it until relief came.

japanese Plan to Drive Kuropatkln lnto
Hands Of Chinese General.

st. Petersburg, May ls.--In view Ct
the official dispatches regarding the
hostile attitude Of the Chinese within
and without the Russian sphere Of in
fuence, the authorities here do not
conceal their apprehension az to the
outlook, especially in the north Of the
empire, for they propose to call the at
tention Of the Celestial government to
the impending uprising in Tapadziasti,
in order that repressive measures may
be instantly taken.
II Il known and appreciated here
that all the powers have made strong
representations to Pekin in the interest
Of the preservationof the tranquility Of
the empire, but II is stated that Major
General Plugs dispatch Of May IA
shows the necessity for further Impress
Ing the Celestial government with the
advisability Of acting with hrm hand.
The authorities here do not forget that
the Boxer revolt which spread from
Shantung would have involved the en-
tire empire had 1t not been iol the firm
ness Of the southern viceroys.
The military authorities In ST.
Petersburg claim to have information
OF sensational character to the effect
that the Chinese have tacitly agreed to
cooperate with the Japanese operations
against the Russians.
The Japanese propose, 1t is stated, to
drive General Kuropatkin's forces into
Mongolia, which would place the Rus
SLAMS in the position Of invaders OF
neutral territory and enable reprisals
by General Mas army, which, 1t is as
serted, 10 kept In that region for that
special object, thus cleverly avoiding
the slightest infringement Of the neu-
trality Of China by Japan, and the Chi
nese troops, by not crossing the Man
churian frontier, could not be charged
with violation Of pledges in respect
to noninterference in military opera
tions in Manchuria.
The opinion Of an eminent strategist
given to the Associated Press today is
that the Japanese intend to attack not
only Lieo Yang, but all along the line,
in an effort to drive General Kuropat
kin into Mongolia, where the Chinese
are waiting for him.

ENEMY ON REAR.
Japanese Close to Russians at Mukden
and Great Battle Imminent.

London, May l9.--No further news
has reached London throwing light
upon the appearance Of Japanese troops
northeast Of Mukden, or indicating by
what route they reached that point SO
Unexpectedly. The japanese are 40
successful in hiding their movements
that 1t is only possible to guess at them
from the vague indications In Russian
official dispatches.
According to the Standards Tien
Tsin correspondent, General Kuropat-
kin has left for Hardin; viceroy Alex
Jeff still being at Lao Yang with co.
900 troops.
1t is noticeable that Russian official
dispatches seldom name the place
whence they were sent.
A question greatly discussed in the
London papers this morning Is whether
General Kuropatkin has succeeded in
ascertaining that the japanese are
threatening his rear so near the Muk-
den line, and has been enabled to be-
gin retreat, or whether he has
elected to fight. In any case, it is
considered that any dav may bring
news of great battle in this district,
as the transport difficulties are be-
lieved to be 30 great as to make it al
most impossible for General Kuropat-
kin to effect rapid retirement.
Indefinite reports continue to reach
London of Japanese bombardment of
Port Arthur and Dalny.
The Standards Odessa correspon-
dent confirms the report tl.at General
Kuropatkin's aggregate forces for the
pending battle do not exceed 100000
men.
