Interesting light on the marvellous

ese for the present war Some years
ago Japanese agent came to Phila-

to a prominent Philadelphia who had
Travelled in Japan. This Philadelphian
tells the story.
The letter was written by Japan

phian and it stated that il he would
help the bearer IN what he desired the
favor would be greatly appreciated
The favor was for the Philadelphian
to simply introduce the agent to q
lirst.ciass firm Of detectives. THIS
was done and the agent described as
responsible person. He had plenty
of money, and bargain was made
with the firm, the latter to receive a
large sum Of money.
The detectives were required to
dress in the clothes OF laborers and
secure work in Cramps shipyard ana
then to gather full information about
the Russian battleshiD Variag. then
in early course of construction. This
they did, and the japanese govern
mcnt was supplied with every detail
of the construction and armament OF
the Variag. The officials at Cramps

JUROR IS ARRESTED
Case of Watson Charged with
Theft Ends Abruptly
IMPERTINENT QUESTION
Intoxicated Juror Is Sent to
Jail for His SmartneSs.

Washington, April 13.-The case of
James NJ A. Watson, accused of embez-
cling $4,000 from funds in the custody
of the auditor of the District of Column
bia, was abruptly ended today by the
discharge. of the jury and the arrest Of
one of the jurors, Arthur L. Orrison, for
contempt of court. The trial probably
will not. be begun until the middle of
May. The termination of the case was
precipitated by the request of Orrison to
be informed by the court whether Wat
son was to be tried on the indictment
against him or on public opinion. JUS
tice Pritchard replied that public opin-
ion had nothing to do with the jury,
which was to consider only the law and
the evidence
Assistant District Attorney Taggart
moved the discharge of the jury on the
ground that Orrison's question indicated
a prejudice against the government in
the case. The court promptly discharged
the jury. prefacing the action by saying
that the juror is intoxicated, and not
IN condition to sit in the box"
When the juror was brought into court
Justice Pritchard adjudged Orrison in
contempt of court and sentenced him to
two months in Jail.
