ADLER CONTINUES ATTACK
Further Attempt to Show Irregularity
I'm Indictment

Much time is being wasted in the
Nathan Adler perjury case in an eff
fort of his counsel to have the 1ndict-
ment set aside on the ground that it
does not contain the names of all the
witnesses who were summoned to tes-
tify regarding the matter before the
Grand Jury. Stipulations had been
filed regarding the points which have
been threshed out in the other graft
cases regarding the eligibility of Grand
Juror Wallace c. Wise and the validity
of the indictments returned by the
Grand Jury, but eight grand Jurors
were summoned yesterday to testify
regarding the presence of witnesses.
The case was continued until this
morning for further hearing along the
same lines.
Grand Jurors Fred Sanborn, Alfred
Greenebaum, Herman H Young, George
@. Burnett, Charles Sonntag, James E.
Gordon, Ancel c. Robson and Foreman
B. P. Oliver were called yesterday
They were questioned by Attorney
Marcus Rosenthal, who attempted to
show that he had been called in con-
nection with the Adler case, but that
his name did not appear on the indict-
ment- 1t was admitted that Rosenthal
had given testimony before the Grand
Jury. but Foreman Oliver and other
witnesses declared positively that this
was after the indictment had been
found A few Of the witnesses would
not testify as to the time when Rosen-
thals testimony was given and Secre-
tary Burnett of the Grand Jury was
instructed to produce his books this
morning to settle the question.

SHOWS MARKETS IN
LATIN AME ER!CA
United States Minister to
Colombia Speaks of the
Trade Chances in South
PACIFIC COAST NEED

PORTLAND, Ore, Dec. 11.-John
Barrett, United States Minister TO
Colombia, was the guest of honor and
the principal speaker tonight at BAN
quet given by the Commercial aClub,
Barrett said that the nations of South
America present markets for nearly
every commodity produced or manu-
factured in this country. Latin Amerl-
ca, he said, had a foreign trade last
year amounting to nearly $1,S0O.0OO, 600.
Nearly billion dollars of this was
imports, of which this country fur
nished only about $200,000,000 worth.
Barrett said that of the exports from
Latin America only 20 per cent had
come to this country. and that this
country should develop this trade He
declared that the Pacific Coast should
show immediate and especial energy
in order that when the Panama canal
was completed ten years hence its
trade would be firmly established. The
speaker asserted that it would be par
ticulariy fitting for the Pacific Coast
to look to Latin America where there
are no dangers of an invading army
of foreign labor and no prospects of a
disastrous competition in manufactures
and productions.
The present situation In California
is, indeed, serious and unfortunate, and
the problem Is no easy one to solve,
but the solution will be reached" he
said. We cannot force Japan to sign
a treaty that is not approved by the
Japanese Government and people, and
we cannot pass a law prohibiting
Japanese cooIie immigration without
revising the present treaty
