BUR|E|

A largely attended meeting Of thu
japanese Reform Association was helt
on Sunday night at the residence OF
Editor Shiozawa, for the purpose OF
removing the plank in the society s
platform calling for the removal from
office of Consul Saito, friendly relations
between the consul and the Japanese
community having been restored
A vote of thanks to Saito was pass
ed, for his efforts in bringing to pass
the objects for which the society waa
formed.
The organization was then formally
disbanded.
The japanese Reform Society came
into existence in May, 1905. Its OBJ
jects were threefold, as follows:
To break up the Japanese emigration
companies.
To stop the operations of the Keihin
bank which was acting in conjunc-
ton with the emigration companies.
To bring about the removal Of Con-
sui Saito for alleged connivance with
the bank and companies.
The Keihin bank and the emigration
companies were together operating a
gigantic scheme of graft, resulting in
the wholesale fleeing of japanese emf
grants to Hawaii. Because Consul
Saito took no steps to stop the nefari'
Gus operations, the Japanese here sus'
pected him of being in on the deal.
The association petitioned the Japa.
nese government to remove Saito and
investigate the dealing of the bank
and the emigration agents.
AS result, Saito was summoned to
Japan. Since his return the emigra-
ton agents have taken to cover and
the game of graft come to complete
standstill.
AS things used to be, laborers for
Hawaii were recruited by the agents
of the companies who charged them a
fee of 20 yen for getting them the job
and then made them deposit 100 yen
in the branch of the Keihin bank in
Yokohama. This money was never re-
payed.
The japanese government has issued
a special order whereby emigrants are
permitted TO leave Japan without
possessing any specific amount of
money. Corrupt officials previously
divided spoils with the bank and the
agents.
The japanese Reform Society, hav.
ing accomplished in the main that for
which it was formed, goes out of ex-
istenee.

Pete Baron, the human cork, saved
boys life yesterday in the harbor,
and he also assisted in getting horse
out of the water as well. About 5
O'Clock Portuguese boy was diseov-
cred to be struggling in the harbor near

A boy on the wharf notified Dick
Young, who recently donned a Customs
Inspector uniform. Young got mop
and leaning over the wharf got ono
end of 1t in reach of the boy and
started to pull him in. The boy was
about exhausted and fell back into the
water. Pete Baron saw what was GO
ing on and swan over to the boy and
succeeded in getting him to a place of
safety.
A little later DIR. Alfred Wall was
driving along the naval park close to
the Myrtle boathouse and Young Bros
home. The road over the sand is even
with the sea,wall. In some manner the
horse backed and the buggy went over
into the water and the horse was drag
ged N also. Baron went to the res
cue and eventually got the horse up
on the sand.
Baron is credited with having saw
ed the lives Of six persons in the last

Thing To Be So Good Looking That He Tempted Take
EXPOSED HOLES IN BRIDGE
EviI-Alndsd Person Removes Boards Over
Holes In Plankins.

First Selectman Frank NJ. Crawford
is looking for the man who ripped the
boards from the planKing on the Har-
mon bridge and when he secures a lit
tie more evidence in addition to what
he has now things will be made inter
esting for the board ripper.
Mr. Crawford noticed some time ago
that there was hole in the planking
on the Harmon bridge and made ar
engagements to put in new plank but
timber of this kind was scarce in the
local markets and in order to guard
against accidents he sent man Fri
day to nail boards over the holes. A
couple Of days later he was informed
that one of the boards had been pulled
of the planking and al attempt had
been made TO remove the other.
What obi ct any one could have In
thus deliberately exposing people and
horses to the danger OF serious acct
dent 1t is difficult to determine and Mr.
Crawford is thoroughly convinced
that the person who did the trick needs
attentioa that the selectman is willing
and anxious to give him.

MADRID, June THE public reiOic-
ings over the marriage of King Alton

dramatic sequel yesterday afternoon

deadly effect near the coach occupied
by the king and queen.
Provdentially King Alfonso and
Queen Victoria escaped by an electric
wire DETECTING the bomb but at least
sixteen persons. most Of them being OF
the personal and military escort and
the others spectators. We're killed.
Many others We're injured
The following are the killed; Captain

escort; Lieutenant Reysient Lieuten-
ant Prendergast. the Marquise of Co
losa and her daughter, Don Antonio
CalyO and his niece, aged six years;
Jose Sofa, seventy years of age, Luis

The explosion occurred Just after
King Alfonso's carriage had passed,

FOR some of the royal personageS fol-
lowing. 1t is said that the Russian
Grand Duke Vladimir was the intend
ed victim. The Duke of Sotomayor
was wounded In the face by splinter.
King Alfonso and Queen Victoria got
