Foreign Mines Shut Out.

Toxic, Feb. AFTER the most heat
ed debate which has yet taken place in
the japanese house of representatives,
the amendments to the mining Law pro-
hibiting foreigners to work Japanese
mines was passed during Mondays ses-
sion. The bill was fought bitterly by
the foreign residents having mining in
terests in Japan, and the government
has been severely censured for advocat-
ing a measure which must needs antag.
onize certain influential interests whose
good Will. it is believed by many, to be
important and necessary at this time.

Warlike Talk of High British Official
Causes Kaiser to Anger.

Berlin, Feb. AT the foreign office
it was said this afternoon that Ger
many would ask England for an ex-
planation of the provocative anti-Ger-
man speech made at East Leigh, Feb
ruary 2, by Arthur H. Lee, civil lord of
the admiralty, in which he said that
Britain would smash an unnamed en-
emy in the North sea before that enemy
had time to realize that war had been
declared. The foreign Office said:
"We hope that nothing will result
from Lees speech. We prefer to be-
lieve he spoke more as a naval expert
than as statesman or cabinet officer.
Yet it is impossible not to put polit-
ical construction upon his utterances.
We shall, of course, take up the mat

FRIDAY, February 8.

The house today passed the
postoffice appropriation bill, carrying
$50, ,787 ,415.
In he-senate today Judge swayne
made formal response to the articles of
Impeachment against him. The an
swer was a formidable document in
point of size. In every case the charge
was admitted, but explained from
Judge Swayne's point of view, they
were not of character to justify pro-
ceedings for impeachment. The senate
issued an order requiring the house to
file its reply by next Monday, and di-
rected that all pleadings shall be in by
February 9, that the trial may proceed
on February 10. The senate sitting as
a court, then adjourned and resumed
legislative consideration of the joint
statehood bill. That topic occupied
the rest of the day.

Will Fight Near Sandepas.

St. Petersburg, Feb Z. = Military
operations in Manchuria continue at a
standstill. No importance is attached
by the war Office to the Japanese move
ments on the Russian center and left,
which are regarded as merely demon
strations. General Heisman, a war
critic, expresses the opinion that the
Russians are not likely to surrender the
positions captured northeast of Sande-
pas, and that series of encounters
there will probably continue until the
weather is favorable for general ad-
vance.

FLAX
CROP
BURNED
Misfortune or Malice Still
Follows Eugene B SSe
and His Efforts

Fire last night destroyed the large
fax barn and three stacks Of straw be-
longing to Eugene BOsse, and situated
on the Ellen Savage farm, just east of
the asylum. The barn, or mill, as il
was being made into, was filed with
the fax fibre, which was brought here
from Scio last winter, while the stacks
of straw contained this year's crop.
The total loss sustained was probably
about 81 900. The barn, which was
100 feet long and so feet wide, was
erected by John Holman in 1S46. 1t
was remodeled three years ago, and
was recently fitted into a mill. Some
of the machinery had already been in
stalled.
This is the third time that Mr.. Bosse
has been burned out within the last
year, and. each time there was no doubt
but that the FIRE was Of incendiary or.
igin. He sustained a loss of about
$4,000 when the large brick mill con.
tanning his fax fibre was burned last
year, and a month later, when the old
wooden mill, containing a lot of ma
ehinery, was destroyed, he lost about
$4,000.
Persons who saw the FIRE last night
soon after it started, assert that the
barn and the three stacks of straw
were all fred at the same time.
There is not the slightest clue as to
who the frebug is. Some think he is
an emissary of the fax trust, sent out
here to injure and destroy the fax in
dustry on this coast, while others think
he is some former employe Of Mr.. Bose,
who has become angered at him for
some reason.
