HAREAs CORPUS DENIED.
Meyer, Haywood and Pettibone Must
Stand Trial.

Boise, Idaho.-The Idaho Supreme
Court Monday decided that Meyer,
Haywood and Pettibone must stand
trial in the Idaho courts for the mur-
der of Ex-Governor Steunenburg and
that the question of how they were ex-
tradited was immaterial. In deciding
the motion to strike out the portions of
the answer dealing with the manner of
bringing the prisoners from Colorado,
Chief Justice Stockslager said:
This court is of the opinion that
where the prisoners are within the
jurisdiction of the demanding state
and are there applying to its courts
for relief, they cannot raise the
question as to whether or not, as a
matter of fact, they are refugees from
Justice within the meaning of the fed
eral constitution and the act of Con-
gress Hereunder.
"a careful and diligent examination
of the many authorities upon this sub
ject and the reasons that exist for in
voking the aid of the writ in such
cases, convinces us that the question
as to whether or not citizen is refu-
gee from justice, is one that can only
be available to him so long as he is be-
yond the jurisdiction of the state
against whose laws he is alleged to
have tranSgresSed.
1T is remedy which does not so to
the merits OF the case and does not in
volve the inquiry as to whether or not
he is in fact guilty or innocent of the
offense charged. 1t is a remedy that
merely goes to the question of his re.
moval from the jurisdiction in which
he is found to the jurisdiction against
whose laws he is charged with offend
ing.
'If these views are correct, and we
believe they are, it follows that so soon
as the prisoner is within the jurisdic
ton of the demanding state, both the
reason and object for invoking this
principle in law have ceased and can
no longer have any application.
Attorney Richardson saved an ex
| ception to the ruling and judgment ol
the court and gave notice that an ap
peal on a writ of error would be taken
to the United States Supreme Court.

ENTERPRISE OF JAPAN.
Wonderful Work in Extending Her
Merchant Marine.

1t is interesting, and instructive as
well, to keep an eye on news from the
far East concerning the doing of ia
pan. That wonderful country is ad-
vancing so rapidly that the reports of
its development six months ago are
out of date to-day. Two years ago it
astonished the world by its military
and naval prowess, and since the close
of the conflict with Russia it has ap-
piled itself to the arts OF peace in a
way that foreshadows future surprises
equally as great.
Just now Japan is working actively
to extend its merchant marine, with
the evident purpose of making its flag
supreme in Oriental waters. In a re-
cent report Consul General Rodgers of
Shanghai, tells what has been done in
this direction. The Nippon Yusen
Kaisha Japanese Steamship Com
pany) acquired the splendid water
front formerly owned by the Pacific
Mail Steamship Company for a frac-
tion of its real value, and is now doing
tremendous business between the
Chinese city and Japanese ports. 1t is
semi-ofIicially announced that every
port touched by Pacific waters will
soon be reached by regular Japanese
steamship lines.
Meanwhile the ship-buldlng compa-
MES of Japan are building new vessels,
renairing old ones, altering captured
craft, and in every way preparing to
adapt everything they have afloat to
the new field OF Japanese endeavor.
Says Mr.. Rodgers: IF the half that is
told of Japanese intentions as to mer-
chant marine is true, then an activity
will ensue on the Pacific ocean which
will astonish the world"

INSURANCE FRAUD.
McEachern confesses and duplicates
Others.

Cripple Creek, Colo.-John ]. Nc
Eachern, the man who tried to de-
fraud a life insurance company out of
$4,000 by blowing up the corpse of a
miner named Robert Speed and claim
ing the remains as those of himself,
took the stand in the District Court
Tuesday and made confession.
McEachern was on the stand for an
hour and a half, and after telling his
story was interrogated by his attor-
ney, Frank j. Hangs; Assistant Dis
trict Attorney John w. Sheafor; ]. W.
Huff, attorney for Mrs. McEachern,
and the Modlins. After they had fin
ished he was asked several questions
by Judge Seeds, all of which he an
swered.
In his confession McEachern i'm
plicated Georeg A. A. Hall, a Victor
undertaken, stating that Hall had gone
to his house some time prior to the
explosion in the Three Jacks tunnel
and that it had been agreed that Hall
should receive $500 for his part and
as soon as the two fraternal orders
paid the insurance money he was to
receive $1,000 in addition.
McEachern stated that the robbing
of Speeds grave was left to Varley
and Hall, though they stated after
ward that they had not done this. He
also said that if everything had been
successful it was his intention to go
to Mexico, where he expected to be
later joined by his wife and family.
George A. A. Hall, the Victor un-
dertaker, was arrested this afternoon
charged with completely in the
scheme to defraud the Northwestern
Mutual Life Insurance Company. He
was not placed in Jail, but was re-
leased on $4,000 bonds.

GOOD BREEDING SAVED HIM.
Dogs Merto captvates Denver
Poundmaster,

Mild submission on the part of a
numbering mastiff to all indignities in
fiicted upon him by the city dog catch
ers has won the hearts of the usually
stolid canine apprehenders and has
earned for the animal the first re-
prieve granted a dog booked for execu-
ton at the city pound According to
the usual rules of the pound the mas
tiff was slated to die at the hands of
the law yesterday afternoon with
many others However, when the dogs
were taken out of the enclosure to the
gas tank, Poundmaster John Wolf
looked into the pleading eyes of the
mastiff and decided to grant him a
weeks reprieve, during which time the
poundmaster will try to find the dog
home.
The canine was picked up by the
catchers in South Denver last week. X
is said that when the catcher's wagon
drove near to where he was standing
he ran to the whistle of one of the
men, wagging his tail. The door of the
cage was opened to him and another
whistle caused him to jump into the
wagon unassisted.
The dog attracted the attention of
all at the pound by his good nature. He
greeted all who approached him with
wagging tail and joyous yelps of well
come. According to the poundmaster
there was an air of refinement about
the brute which, despite his shaggy
coat, proclaimed the fact that he had
seen better days. He was not puppy,
and might have been an experienced
| forager and tramp, but he was as
gentle and as playful as a kitten and
when shown any kindness by the
pound men he would stand on his hind
legs, in evident ecstacy, and endeavor
to show his appreciation in the most
marked manner.
Inspector Mahoney, the head of the
dog department, had his attention
called to the canine and insists that
the mastiff has enough grey matter to
entitle him TO degree.-Denver Re-
publican.

Old Cities Were Noisy.

Modern cities are not as noisy as
those of other days. For example, in
London, in the time of King George
H., the streets were still cobbled and
the pack horses of Elizabethan mem
ory had been replaced by heavy carts
and wagons. Barrels of beer and
heavy cases were dragged about on
drays of iron without wheels and to
add to the tumult heavy signs in i'm
mense frames of ironwork hung out in
front of shops and houses, and creaked
lnterminably Street cries never
Aeased for a moment all day All the
smaller necessaries, such as pins,
thread, string, ink. straps, fish, milk,
cakes. bread, drugs, herbs, matches,
were hawked in the streets.

cities are endeavoring to secure post
