Patrick Are Vetoed.

Albany, N. Y.-'Little less than
scandalous," is the phrase used by
Governor Higgins in veto memoran
dun issued regarding 'the laws de-
lay" in the case of Albert T. Patrick,
convicted of the murder of the aged
millionaire, William M. Rice, in New
York City in 1900. The governors
veto is of two bills introduced by AS
semblyman Wade of Chautauqua to
amend the code of criminal procedure
so as to permit an appeal from an or
der denying a motion for a new trial
in a criminal case on the ground of
newly discovered evidence. The bills,
which were introduced in the senate
also by Senator Smith, were general
ly understood to have reference espe-
cially to the Patrick case, and the
governor so describes them in his

TROUBLE IN MANcHuRIA.
Japanese Merchants Are Accused Of
Being Greedy.

Washington.-Ea mails bring
news of friction between the English
merchants and the Japanese omcialsi
resulting from the difficulty expert
enced by the former.in obtaining ac-
cess to the markets of Manchuria
1t is charged that the Japanese
seized the opportunity afforded by
their military occupancy of the coun-

the hands of their own merchants, and
that not only is the country glutted
with goods brought in by the Japanese

In one place the Chinese themselves
complain that the Japanese have built
a bridge across one of the principal

be used by the Chinese boats, with
the result that the traffic lis diverted
entirely to the Japanese owned rail-
road.

SAYS OPEN DOOR is
ONLY IN IMAGINATION
Foreign Merchants Are Unable to
Compete With the Japanese in
Manchuria.

| Washington various sources
the attention of the state department
has been drawn to what 1t regards as
the great hindrance 10 foreign trade
with Manchuria caused by the circula-
ton of the war notes issued by the
Japanese generals in the field during
the late war to the Chinese farmers
and traders and coolies who supplied
either fodder, food, transportation or
labor for the Japanese soldiers. Like
notes were issued during the Civil
war by Union commanders in cases OF
necessity, and they were all redeemed
by the national government in the end
1t is not doubted that 1t is the pur-
pose of the Japanese government to
redeem their notes, and, in fact, the
redemption is said to be in progress,
but in a manner which, 1t is claimed,
is giving great dissatisfaction to the
foreign houses trading with Manchu-
ria. The charge is made in some OF
the complaints that have reached
Washington that discrimination is
practiced to the great detriment OF
our trade in that quarter.

CAMP IS SWEPT
AWAY BY FLOOD
Five Men Lose Their Lives
as a Result of Breaking
of Large Dam.
Immense Volume Of Water Rushed
Down the Canyon, Sweeping
Everything Before It-Men Were
Engaged In Sheep shearing.

Reno, Nev--A special to the Ga.
sette says that the most disastrous
Hood that has occurred in Nevada for
many years took place In Golconda, a
small town about 200 miles from here.
1t was caused by the breaking of the
large dam in Pole Creek canyon, three
miles above the shearing corral OF the
Golconda Cattle company. Five men
were drowned and several are badly
injured.
When the dam broke an immense
volume OF water poured down the
canyon, carrying everything before IT,
When 1t struck the sheep shearing cor
raj there were number of men at work
and all of these were carried away
with the flood Not building or fence
OF the Golconda Cattle company was
left standing. The track Of the
Southern Pacific railroad was under
mined for a mile west of the town,
and all trains are from eight to
twelve hours late.
The dead are three Mexican sheep
shearers, a Chinese cook and an Indian
boy. All were employed by the Col
conda Cattle company. The injured
are suffering from congested lungs
due to swallowing water and mud, and
one will probably die.

of three Japanese in the north fork of

1t seems there are about 100 Japan
csc working on the Marysvale road
short distance above st. Anthony.
They like fish, and whenever they
want some they slip out, drop stick
OF dynamite into the stream and kill
large number. The practice of the
Japanese became known to fishermen
and plans were laid to catch them
Mr.. Stephens arranged that any fish,
erman catching the Japs at work
should hold them up until he could
turn them over to deputy warden.
The stream was watched for a long
time before an opportunity came to
make an example of the children of
the mikado Finally a fisherman
caught six of them in the act of dyna-
hitting fish. He promptly placed them
under arrest, but the entire six made
