A Japanese tea house and garden,
built on the edge of Guilds Lake, con-
situtes new feature at the Lewis and
Clark Exposition. The house is built
in the dainty Japanese style, and tea
and rice cakes are served on the cosy
veranda by cute little maids from ia
pan. The new establishment is located
on Gray's boulevard, at the very outer
edge OF the Trail.
The Trail at the Lewis and Clark Ex-
position is now being covered with a
canvas roof for its entire length along
that part of it which extends over the
lake. This is the main section OF the
Trail. The roof will afford protection
from the sun and make the Trail more
popular than ever. This is said to be
the biggest canvas roofing b ever un.

lack of training in the Russians, the
wind and sea at night permitting favor
able torpedo attacks, and the luck of
the pursuit movement of the Japanese
undertaken the second dav Of the battle
were notable elements in making the
victory complete.
Akyama defends Nebogatoh's sur
rend from severe criticism. Neboga-
tof was surrounded by 81 ships, in
cludng the most powerful of Togo's
fleet. Had the Russians refused to sur
render, bis ships would have been sunk
forthwith. Five or ten minutes would
have sutficed to finish the unpleasant
task. Any other course than surrender
would have condemned to reedless
death 2000 officers and men.
Accurate estimates of the actual Rus
sian casualties are impossible to obtain
but they are far under first estimates.
The rescued and sur, endered exceed
7000 and, making due allowance for
those who escaped in the Almaz, Izum-
rud, Orel, Aurora, Jemtchug and the
auXiliaries, the number actually lost g
between 1000 and $500.

SIX TO SIX.
Jury Again Disagrees I'm william
On.Gesner-Biggs Trial.

John N. Williamson, DR.. Van Gesne
and Marion Blggs will have to face tria
on August 28, for the third time, on thu
charge of conspiracy to suborn perjury
After having striven for As hours t
reach some conclusion, the Jury in tn,
Williamson case came into the court
and upon its request was discharged by
Judge De Haven. At only one time
did the Government cause hold the ma
jority vote, that being during the first
three ballots, when seven of the jurors
voted to acquit, the vote then changing
to six for conviction and an equal num-
Der for acquittal, where it hung without
interruption through 80 ballots. At
another time those voting to acqu;t pro-
posed to their comrades to convict
Gesner and Biggs, provided Williamson
should be acquitted, but Henry j.
keene would not consent to the agree.
ment, and no change was made in the
vote. George Kirk, after having voted
for three times to convict, changed his
ballot to the other hand, and refused to
make another decision. According to
the s'ory told by several of the Jurors,
it was apparent early in the course o.
the deliberations that no verdict could
be reached, and the subsequent ballots
were taken more as matter of form
than with the expectation that anv
change would be shown.
The bone Of contention seemed to be
in regard to the existence of a contract
ana IN the question OF intention on the
part of the three defendants to do
wrong. 1t was argued by those who
wished to acquit that the evidence was
insufficient to show beyond reason
sble doubt that contract had been
made, or that the men had entered de-
liberately into a scheme to suborn the
people taking the claims for them. 1t
was held by these six meu that there
was a strong possibility that the de-
PENDANTS had not intended to violate the |
law, and, there fore. being of pure mind |
and wi huut desire to transgress the |
nws, they should not be punished for a
mistake nnwittngly made.
MIR. Heney, upon the discharge of the
Jury by Judge De Haven, at once
moved that the third trial of the case be
set for August 2S, the day upon which
he court will be again convened with
Judge W. II. Hunt, of Montana, upon
,he bench. Judge De Haven ordered
hat the case be set down for that date.
