MRS. MAVERICK IN AMERICA.
Arrives From Europe Where She Has
Been For Several Months.

NEW YORK, Aug. Mrs. Florence
Maybrick. who. travelling under the
name of Clancy a slight variation OF
her maiden name. arrived last night on
the La Gascogne. tried in every way
to keep her identity secret. but final
~ acknowledged it and said she had
been abroad three months. While not
directly acknowledging that she had
visited England, she said:
1T is logical to acknowledge that
the three months have spent abroad
have not been passed on the continent
altogether"
Mrs. Maybrick presented a remark
ably different appearance than she did
year ago last February. when she
arrived here fresh from her long term
in the English prison. She seemed to
be at least a dozen years younger. Her
sole worry appeared to be that her
identity would become known to those
on the La Gascogne.
qualification of my arrival here may
upset my plans" said Mrs. Maybrick.
IT cannot say what I have been doing
abroad. cannot confirm or deny any
thing"
This was in response to n question
as to whether she had been in England
to establish her innocence of any con-
nection with the death of her husband.
for which she received a life SEN
tence.

RUSS|A'S AGRAR|AN
POLICY OUTLINED
GOVERNMENTS PLANS GIVEN OUT
Would settle the Question According
to Its Own Light and Go Before
People on This Issue.

ST. PETERSBURG. Aug. THE real
intention Of the government when 1t
dissolved the lower house of parlia-
ment was revealed by a member of the
cabinet to the Associated Press today.
It shows that Premier Stolypin at least
intends to pursue and hold an affirma-
tive policy amounting virtually to a
determination on the part of the ad-
ministration settle the agrarian ques-
ton according to its own lights, and
irrespective of parliament. and then go
to the country upon this issue.
The government expects a rally not
only OF the landed interests but the
mass Of peasants to its side by actually
giving the latter some relief instead OF
merely holding out hopes Of more
advantageous settlement In the indeh-
mite future. Politically this move may
prove very strong. The actual be-
stowal OF lands even In smaller quanti-
ties than expected and the division OF
communistic holdings will, 1t is be-
iieved, make the peasantry disinclined
to vote for candidates to the lower
house. who might propose totally
different solution of the question.
The crux OF the question. however,
lies in it's financial aspect. 1t will be
a herculean operation to find the funds
required to purchase the private hold
ings which the project or the minister
of agriculture contemplated acquiring
through land banks.

Enjoyed Alaskan Trip.

Lee Title arrived home Sunday
morning from Seattle. Mr. and Mrs.
]. e. Ryan, ]. d. Cornett and his
mother and daughter also came down
from Alaska with Mr.. Title, but are
still enjoying life at Seattle.
Mr.. Title says the trip on the boat
is delightful one from start to finish
and that it is one we'll worth taking.
He speaks very highly OF the accom-
modations and courtesy OF the people
on the boat. Recounting the trip he
said mo one on the boat was sea-
sick but Johnnie Ryan. and he was
sick enough to make up for all the
rest. Why, he actually wanted to get
off and walk. When he was fully re-
covered from the sickness he enjoyed
himself. but II you want to hear about
the trip just ask Ryan who was sea-
sick. Barring this all of the party
had a very pleasant trip and enjoyed
themselves to the utmost"

CLAIM TT Is roo HIGH.
Mob I'M Residents Protest against
Assessors Valuation.

a meeting or property owners Of Mob
Hill was held iu the school house Sat
urday evening. and was attended BY
practically every person owning land
in the Mob HI district. The object
OF the gathering was to protest against
the assessed valuation Of Mob Hi
property. the claim being made that
the figures Of the assessor are much
higher than the actual valuation.
The protest was unanimous and Wig
orous. A number Of speeches were
made, and all We're in the nature Of
demands for a reduction in the figures.
A committee of three, consisting of l..
II. Humphrey Mr.. Easton and ]. L.
Shannon, was appointed to appear be-
fore the board of equalization which
meets tomorrow, and enter a formal
protest in behalf of all the property
owners of Mob Hill The committee
was instructed to endeavor to decide
upon fair rate of valuation to be rec
commended to the board.
It is understood that the committee,
when It appears before the board, VIII

the interested people.

isfy the public. "rhey are demanding
it and they'll have it," is the way the
matter is summed up. The agitation
for the direct primary has become too
strong to ignore. 1t is like the cry

through so many political campaigns
that the railroads themselves finally
threw up their hands. Or like the cry

WASHINGTON FOR
DIRECT PRIMARY
POLITICIANS DARE NOT OPPOSE IT
People All Over the state Demanding
New Law and Next Legislature
Must Grant 1t.

correspondent from Seattle says
The next legislature will undoubtedly
pass bill providing for the direct
primary system Of nominations. Tha.
portion of the general public which has
denounced convention manipulation
has demanded the change and the poll
ticians are willing to concede it. Gov
ernor Mead has declared he will urge
the passage of a direct primary act
in his message and it is likely both
political parties will promise such a
bill in their state platforms.
The exact form the direct primary
act will take is not determined. The
Workingmen's league. a political or
ganization of union leaders, and the
King County Republican club, Senator
Piles organization, agreed with the
Civic Union OF Seattle upon a draft Of
a bill somewhat similar to the Wis
consin act. This bill would have had
lative nominees, but the advocates of
the direct primary held state confer
ence later on and rejected the work of
the three organizations. A committee
was appointed to draft a new measure.
Almost every session OF the Wash
ington legislature within the last doz-
en- years has memorialized congress to
permit the election of senator's by di-
rect vote. Repeatedly the state has by
resolution called upon ot..er legisla-
lures to demand a constitutional con-
vention to submit this question. If the
next legislature includes a vote for
United States senator's in the provi-
sons of the direct primary act. il will
merely be following precedent estab-
lished by it's predecessors in asking for
a more representative selection.

KILLING OF JAPS
A SERIOUS AFFAIR
LEADS TO DELICATE SITUATION
Notwithstanding Fishermen Were in
Forbidden Waters-TweIve Other
Trespnssers Taken Prisoners.

NEW YORK, Aug. "A special to
A report of the killing of five Japanese
fishermen and the capture of twelve
Japanese prisoners on Attu island, the
westernmost Of the Aleutian group, the
prisoners having been taken by the
revenue cutter McCulloch, commanded
by Capt. J. c. Cantwell. was made to
the department of commerce and la
Dor today by Edwin w. Sims. solicitor
for the department, who is in Alaska
to enforce the law prohibiting all per-
sons not citizens of the United States
from fishing in Alaskan waters.
The Japanese killed were shot by
Americans on Attuist. and before the
McCulloch arrived
Lawrence o. Murray. acting secre-
tary of commerce and labor. promptly
turned the cable dispatch over to Rob-
ert Bacon, acting secretary of state.
Bacon will Immediately communicate
the information he has received to the
Japanese ambassador and will express
regret that the Japanese poachers were
so summarily dealt with by Americans
on Attu island.
| The cable dispatch from Sims does
not make entirely clear the character
of the offense of which the Japanese
were guilty. but it does show the Of
ncers and crew of the McCulloch were
! In no way responsible Tor the killing
of the fishermen, and that those who
were captured were trespassers on
American territory, having come
ashore probably to salt and cure their
! catch. There Is no reason to expect
| international complications as n re-
suit of the incident, but there is nc
question that the situation in the Aleu-
tian islands especially as it affects the
Japanese, is delicate one and that
difficulties will be encountered in en-
forcing laws protecting American citi.
zens and their rights.

MUSTN'T BOTHER pEDDLERs.
Ruling by Judge Whits0n Unpopular
with Resident Dealers.

In an opinion handed down Monday
morning in the United States district
court for the eastern district of Wash
ington, Judge Howard Whitson, in the
case of the Spaulding Manufactu
company versus the Inland Empire Re-
tail Hardware Dealers association to
make permanent pendente lite an in
junction prohibiting the agents of the
defendants from harrassing the sales
man of the complainant company. after
reviewing the case. rules rs follows:
IAN Injunction will be granted pro-
hbiting the defendant association as
SUCH and all defendants who have APP
peared in the action, from following.
harrassing. intmidating or interfering
with the business of complainants,
at the same time compliments agents
are soliciting them.
"This will not be construed rs pro-
hibiting defendants from canvassing
and soliciting customers or peddling in
the same territory and at the same
time complainants' agents are canvass
ing. soliciting or peddling.
"The Injunction to go into effect up
on the filing of a good and sufficient
bond to be approved by the clerk of
the court with appropriate conditions
indemnifying the defendants against
loss. damages and costs"
In summing up the various conten-
tions made in the case. Judge Whitson
holds that the defendants were trying
to accomplish by subterfuge what the
state supreme court had repeatedly
held could not be done, saying in part:
Following the decision of the state
supreme court we find the dealers re-
sorting to the very ingenious scheme
which has been disclosed - While
the complainant was engaged in SELL
ing vehicles in various counties in this
district parties were organized con-
sisting of two persons in each to fol
low the salesman of the complainant,
which they did with remarkable per-
sistence and pertenacity. Whittier
thou goest I will go. and where thou
lodgest 7 will lodge, was the rule TO
which they adhered.
''Tn one instance a deputy sheriff
was appointed and sent out as one of
the alleged statesmen of the defendants
In two other instances rifles were car
ried in the buggies. IT Is said that
these were carried for the purpose of
shooting squirrels and coyotes. In the
light OF the showing made this theory
must be taken with a grain of allow
ance. This conduct suggests force"
While the decision of the court can
not he construed as an unqualified vic
tory for the complainants. inasmuch rs
the Injunction does not prohibit the
agents of the association from solicit
ing in the same districts and ut the
same time as the agents Of the Spauld-
ing company. It Is a partial victory for
the latter and may have the effect or
breaking M the plans of its opponent.
