JAPANESE TACTICS.

Special to The Sentinel.
Picking, June 1S.-Widespread and
growing dissatisfaction is being mani
Tested by Americans and European
merchants, banks and shipping firms
against the Japanese administration
I in Manchuria. The Japanese occpa-
/ tion under the Portsmouth treaty will
not he effective until next April and
in the meantime foreign commerce is
almost blocked, the japanese mer-
chants gaining advantages which
make 1t increasingly difficult to com
pete with them. Foreign goods enter
Manchuria through Port New Ch.
wang, where the regular Chinese GUS
| toms duties are levied. while the
japanese import through Dalny and
Antung without duty.
Mukden and Antung are nominally
opened to foreign trade but foreign.
ers are not permitted to go inland
without Japanese passes while many
japanese merchants, miners and pro
moters are allowed to travel the coun-
try free. Foreign merchants com
plain that obstacles are placed in the
way of Shipping goods to the inter
ior from New Chwang as the Japa-
nese contOl the railway giving them
special advantages.
Antung and Mukden at present are
practically worthless bases for for
eign trade because of the difficulty
In distributing goods from those
points, The foreign merchants are
further handicapped by the circu-
latlon of war notes to the amount
estimated at between fifty and seven
ty-fve millions yen, which can be
used only in japanese trade.
Large and fiourishing settlements
are located at Mukden, Antung and
other places.
Consul General Sammons visited
Mukden and Antung to arrange with
the Chinese the details for opening
of those points to foreign trade under
the American treaty of 1908. It is
/ believed the Chinese are stubbornly
! trying to insist on regulations simi.
| lar to those whereby Tsinggtau and
Shantung were recently opened,
which gives China a greater control
of foreign settlements than in the
old treaty ports.

MISS sTRAYER HIT BY CAR,
Miss Grace Strayer Was Struck by
A Tramway Car in Denver
And Severely Injured.

Last Friday afternoon, Miss Grace
A. Strayer of Denver, well known In
this city, where she formerly went
to school. a sister of Mrs. A. Il. Sam
pliner, met with what might have
been a fatal accident.
Miss Strayer. who is member of
the corps of public school teachers in
the city of Denver was about to cross
the Nineteenth avenue car tracks in
that city, at the corner of 10Th and
fremont streets She saw an Eleven
tn street car coming and knew that 1t
would turn and go up Fifteenth
street. But instead the motorman of
the car failed to throw his switch
and the car ran over on the Nineteen
tn avenue car track, which was being
crossed by Miss Strayer. who felt per
fectly easy about the matter. as she
knew the car would go up Fifteenth
street.
The failure to throw the switch by
the motorman, however. ran the car
up and upon Miss Strayer before she
could possibly get out of the way
and she was thrown high in the air
and to the side of the car striking
the paved streets and being badly
bruised and bleeding.
She was at once conveyed to the
home of her mother. where she was
given prompt medical attention.
1t was found upon examination
that she had no bones broken, al
though her bady was badly burised
all over. Had there been no Tenders
on the car. as there had been none
formerly, Miss Strayer would have un
dobtedly been ground to pieces under
the car.
The accident was solely caused by
the neglect of the motorman In not
throwing the switch. as 1t was his
duty to do so.
The many friends of Miss Strayei
in this city, which she frequently Wis
its. will be glad to learn that her in
iuries were no more serious than they
are.

ENGINEERS WIFE IS
MURDERED IN SALIDA
Mrs. Bode, Wife of Prominent Engineer, Shot to
Death by Mrs. Hutchinson Wife of Switch
man. The Cause Alleged Intimacy of
Murdered Woman With the
Husband of Murderess.

salida, June 1S.-The deliberate
murder of Mrs. Carl f. Bode wife
of a prominent railroad man in this
city by Mrs. Harold Hutchinson. who
is the wife OF switchman here. at
the home of the former this morning.
has thrown this city into a high state
of excitement and brought out story
of scandal which can hardly be benev-
ed
Mrs. Hutchinson was arrested i'm
mediately after the shooting and al.
leges that she shot the murdered
woman because she had long been
| too familiar with her husband
She will be held in the local Jail
until the coroner's verdict when she
will probably be taken to the county
| Jail at Buena Vista. The prisoner
refuses to talk about the affair fur
ther than to say that she was justified
in committing the act and limiting
at the cause for her deed, which she
says is her husbands familiarity with
the murdered woman, and for which
he says her vistim was to blame.
That the act was carefully premedi-
tated was plain in tracing out the
story this morning when 1t was learn
ed that early this morning Mrs. Hut
Crimson called up the railway head
quarters and ascertained whether Mr.
Bode had gone out on his trip. Up
on learning that the husband of her
alleged rival went out on his run as
usual this morning. Mrs. Hutchinson
went Immediately to hardware store
down town where she purchased a re
volver and went directly to the Bode
home.
Mrs. Bode was at the time out in
the back yard talking to neighbor.
Not being able to bring anyone to
the door but feeling sure that she was
around the house somewhere Mrs.
Hutchinson went around the house
and finding her victim leaning up
against the back fence talking with
neighbor woman, she Immediately
fired three shots into her body. The
woman screamed and fell backwards
to the ground and expired in a few
minutes before they were able TO re-
move the body.
Mrs. Hutchinson left the scene i'm
mediately but was arrested in a short
time at her home. She admits com
hitting the murder but says that she
was justified in the act and believes
sne will be able to show it in the
courts.
The murdered woman leaves be
side her husband little 14-year-old
daughter and twin sons, years
old. She was thirty years OF age
herself.
Mrs. Hutchinson is 81 years OF
age and is the mother OF one son'f
years old.
Both the families were well known
in this city and Grand Junction where
the murdered woman is said to nave
borne an excellent reputation and
her wide circle of trends and ac-
quaintances in both places are appal-
led at the crime and unable to believe
the story told by the murderess.

SHOOTING STILL A MYSTERY.
Young Man Seen Running Away
From Peterson Home Soon
After the Shooting.

Mrs. Miles Peterson. the woman
who was shot at her home on Grand
avenue last Friday night, and con
cerning whom very li;tle is known in
this city. left with her daughter Sat
urday night for her home in Salt
Lake City. While her wound was
a very painful one II is not thought
TO be serious by DR.. Day and she was
assisted by him to and in boarding
the train and getting a comfortable
seat.
So far as it was able to be learned
today no more light has been thrown
upon the mysterious shooting, which
Mrs. Peterson persistently declares
was done by tall man whom she sus-
rects of wanting some valuable pa
pers which have been In her pos
session and which were the object
of his former visit about ten days
ago when he ransacked her letters in
her writing desk and trunk.
A story came to Marshal Wallis to-
day that a young man, hareheaded,
rather tall and slender had been seen
running across the vacant lot west
of the Peterson home by party Of
young people passing on the other
side of the street just after the re-
port ol Nht ItNolNtl WIS uthius
The young people say that they
thought the young man wore light
black moustache. They said that
when he got short distance from the
fence he struck a match on his trous-
ers and lighted a cigarette with
out stopping running. They said the
young fellow was bent over and when
they saw him one of the young peo-
pie remarked that the man had been
hurt. He ran north on Fourth street.
Mrs. Peterson was indignant at the
story that the shooting was an out
come of any love affair and insisted
that there is some one in quest of
valuable papers in her possession,
yet the local police say that she has
taken none of them into her conf
dence and that they have had abso-
lutely no new light shed on the mys-
terry.
