NO APOLOGY TO JAPAN
State Department Sustans Killing Of Seal Poaehers Off
Alaskan Coast..-NeWs Of @RegrettaBIe Incident
Cabled to American Ambassador

Washington, Aug. 9.--Acting Secre.
tary of State Bacon, has sent to Am
5assador Wright, at Toxic, the sub
lance Of the dispatch received By the
department of commerce and labor
from Solicitor Sims, at Sitka, Alaska,
regarding the killing of five Japanese
fishermen ON ST. Paul island. In send
ing the dispatch the acting secretary
stated that 1t is forwarded for the
purpose of giving information such as
this government has of regrettable
incident, news of which may reach
Japan in distorted form. There is no
intention of Offering an apology or any
further regret than is contained in
this dispatch, as the state department
regards the Japanese fishermen as
poachers if they were within the three
mile limit and the dispatch from Mr.
Sims emphasizes this fact.
Seals are recognized as property by
international law and the Japanese
killed by American officials on St. Paul
gAAs'AohAu oCetAu III l.iS SliilG pOSlLlOn as
burglars shot in the act of stealing,
according to prominent authorities on
international law, No international in
cfdent can result from the shooting of
the Japanese roachers, it is said at
the state department. This govern
ment has no amends to make to Japan
other than those that courtesy may
prompt and mere expression of re-
greet that such an incident should take
place is all that Is looked for.
85 The Japanese charge, Mr.. Miyaoka,
called at the state department for in
formation about the killing of the
japanese. He had received no advices
from his government concerning the
affair and Acting Secretary Bacon
gave him the same information which
was sent to AMI assador Wright.
After discussing the matter with
Mr.. Bacon MI Miyaoka agreed that
It was not a case to cause an interna-
tional Incident and that it was sim
liar to other clashes that have oc-
Cured between citizens OF one coun-
try on the soil of another.

the fugitive president and cashier left

nearly 200 items ranging from 81 900

On climbing the promontory at the

larger rookeries a schooner was seen
close in shore. Looking straight down
over the cliff the patrol saw a dozen

MORGAN is SHOWN HOW

FRESHMAN JUNIORS Win GAl
MAN WHO MADE TF. CENTS FOR
FOOTBALL TEAM BUTTS
ONTO THE COURTS.
FRESHMAN JUNIORS WIN GA1

The attempt of the junior class OF
gan, a sophomore, in their basket ball
team in the inter-c class game with the
senior class created a pretty lively ten
minute muss at the college gymnasl-
um yesterday afternoon.
Morgan, although he has only cred
it's enough to be ranked as sOpho-
more, has been posing as a member of
the junior class all the year and the
seniors were afraid that an attempt
would be made to play him n the
game yesterday. For this reason they
came we'll armed with papers to show
up the false position Of the ambitious
would be- junior.
Captain Haylett O'Neil of the SEN
ior basket ball team had obtained
Of the college, written list showing
the class standing Of the students in
the college on which Morgan was
classified as sophomore not as junior.
Juniors Kick.
The juniors asserted they would not
play without Morgan but the senior
captain remained firm in his protest
against what he regarded as. steal
on the part of the juniors.
Morgan is reported to have remarked
sneeringly to a member of the senior
class, How are you going to put me
out ?" to which the senior replied:
You will find out in the next ten
minutes"
D. V. Mitchell director of the gym
nasium was asked to act as arbiter of
the dispute He said that he disliked
to interfere in the affair, but that if
he had to decide it would be to rule
Morgan out as the catalogue of the
college must be the test whether man
was sophomore or junior.
Both teams were anxious to play
and the audience was getting impatient
so it was necessary to do something
