MISTAKEN FOR BURGLAR.
Japanese Servant Shot at Portland
Probably Fatally.

PORTLAND, Dec. 24.-Ara Ia
cashima, Japanese, was shot and
probably fatally injured by Ar

Tacashima is house servant in

pas through young McEwan's apart
ments to get to his own room. Last
night McEwan was awakened by a
noise made by the Japanese, and see

The shot struck Tacashima in the
abdomen. The wounded man was
taken to the hospital Immediately
but for some reason, apparently by
oversight occasioned in the excite
ment no one notified the police
Zahm and his brother-in-law came
here in the employ of the Home Tel
ephone company few months ago
from Los Angeles. The family are
highly respected.

The itigant IS still running his
sheep on the Rainier reserve with
out paving fees"
Decisions like Judge WhitsonS
had before been made by the federal
courts in three other districts, one
of them six years ago, but none of
these interferes in the slightest with
the right of the United States to in
stitute civil action against tres
passers violating the grazing regula.
tions, or with charging the grazing
Fee The United States circuit court
of appeals for the ninth circuit
decided definitely, in the case Of
Dasteryignes VS.. United States,
that the provisions of the act Of
March 4 1897. delegating to the sec
Rotary the power to make regua-
tions, is constitutional. that the reg
ulation prohibiting the pasturing Of
sheep on the forest reserves with
out a permit is valid, and that the
federal courts will enforce the reg
ulation by injunction. The supreme
court of Arizona, three judges sit
ting, in the case of Dent VS.. United
States &C Pacific Reporter 455)
went still further, under circum-
cstesan which made the decision most
emphatic Dent was criminally pros
ecuted for grazing sheep on for
est reserve without a permit, in VIC
lation of the regulations. and the
court had held that this act was not
crime: but as soon as the Daster-
vignes case was decided for the
government the Arizona court
granted rehearing of the Dent
case and held that the Dastervignes
decision was binding on all courts
in the ninth circuit in criminal as
we'll as civil cases, and that Dent
was therefore guilty of crime
SO far, therefore, the court decis-
ions as to the criminality OF tres
pass contrary to the forest re-
serve regulations are conflicting. FL
nal adjudication of the point can not
be had until the ruling of a higher
court has been secured; but no
court has questioned the right of the
secretary of agriculture to make
regulations and to recover damages
for trespass through civil action.
Grazing trespassers will be re
strained from violation of the reg
ulations by injunction proceedings
and sued for civil damages until
the higher courts shall have
reached a decision as to the Grim
inal character of such trespasses
The forest service will continue 10
exclude unpermitted stock from
all forest reserves and TO collect
grazing fees for all stock under
permit.

B|LKEO BY MUTUAL
FUNDING COMPANY
MANY YAKIMA PEOPLE CAUGHT
They Get Little Sample of the Far
Famed esprit of Seattle" to
Their Regret.

Several Yakima people have come
to the concluion that the Mutual
Funding Company" of Seattle is
about as safe proposition as horse
race, considered in the light of an in
well as it prospected, all would have
been snooks, and the money invest
ed by the public would have
brought greater returns than if in
vested in ordinary propositions. But
the thing seems to have petered out,
and the investors are left to mourn
the loss of their departed dollars,
which, fortunately, were not invested
in large numbers.
The scheme is branded by Chief
Wappenstein of the Seattle police
force as one of the rawest swindles
ne has met up with for some time.
Solicitors worked North Yakima sew
eral months ago, and caught a good
ly number of people by what appear
ed to be feasible scheme The in
vestors were to pay into the concern
a dollar week, and after paying
$50 were to get back $12O. 1t look
ed good. The solicitors did con-
siderable business here, mainly
among wage earning people or peo-
pie Of moderate means who wanted
their money to grow rapidly. Until
very recently none of the de
positors" happened to want to draw
down, and therefore none had any
means of getting tip that the con
Germ was a fake. This fact develop
ed, however, last week. when some
of those who had been paying in ask
ed for refund. They didn't get it.
One of these was a Seattle man, and
upon being refused payment he i'm
mediately reported the fact to tn
police and an investigation was held.
The rottenness of the company may
be understood from the following in
the Seattle Times:
"The police say that the company
officers have, instead of depositing
the money, divided the weekly pay
ments among themselves and that

the body of Timothy was found,
with only his head and feet above
water. About 80 feet further down
the river the body of Malguire was
found. The bodies were found about
$3.50 in the afternoon. Coroner
Rosser was Immediately called, and
the party returned to this city, and
the bodies taken to the undertaking
parlors of A. J. Shaw & Sons.
Sheriff Grant last night stated that
his idea of the drowning was that
when the boat capsized the two old
men chung to it and were carried
down the river until they struck the
rifle, and when they came in con
tact with 1t they were able to
stand mp as the water at that point
is only about knee deep, but being
so fatigued and chilled with the cold
water they were unable TO make the
shore and simply laid down and died.
Mr.. Grant also stated that he APP
preciates very much the kind as
sistance of Frank Sinclair and l.,
Buckholtz and all the other people
who gave aid.
Coroner Rosser stated last eve
ming that he had viewed the bodies
and heard the story Of the drowning
and that there would be no inquest
held, since the unfortunate occur
renee was purely accidental.

MUST PAY FEES IF
CRAZE ON RESERVE
BEARING OF DECISION ON LAW
Regulations Unmodified by Recent
Decision of Judge Whitson-A
Misapprehension Corrected.

The forest service of the depart
ment of agriculture has issued an
explanatory bulletin as follows:
A recent decision of federal
judge has bee widely commented up
o throughout the west on the sup
position that it declared illegal the
regulation of grazing on forest re-
serves and the system of charg
for grazing permits. AS d matter
fact, the decision, which was ha
ed down by Judge Whitson,
the United States district co
for eastern Washington, in the case
of the United States VS. Matthews,
has no bearing whatever upon the
legality OF the grazing regulations
or of grazing fees. which stand pre-
cisely as before. The legal question
involved was simply this: Does the
law authorizing the secretary Of agri-
culture to issue regulations make
the breach of those regulations a
crime?
Judge Wilson's decision merely
answered this question NO" K
was in substance that the objection
10 the indictment against Walter
Matthews was the absence of law
defining the act therein charged as a
criminal offense. Upon that ground
the court held that the demurrer
must be sustained and the defend
ant discharged
Though the point was simple and
clear enough, it was entirely mis-
construed in the press reports of the
decision and in editorial comments
upon it. For instance, in the Wy
oming Tribune of Tuesday, Novem-
Der 6, news of Judge Whitson' )
action was given under the head
lines: Grazing Fees Illegal De-
cides Federal Judge" and the arti-
Gle declares that "As a result of the
decision. Matthews, who entered the
Mount Rainier forest reserve with
out the permit required by the sec
rotary, is still using the reserve and
is not paying the fee imposed by
the secretary" As matter of fact,
Mr.. Matthews sheep were immedi-
ately removed upon notice by the
forest officers and have not since en-
tered the reserve.
In the Sheridan, Wyo., Post It
is said
"A decision fraught with import
ance to Wyoming stockmen is that
appearing in this issue, wherein 1t
is held by the United States distric,
court that the collection of fees for
grazing livestock is Illegal.
Since its imposition this fee has
been regarded as illegal and arbi-
trary by many well informed wyo-
ming people. and the views express
ed by the court in this decision meet
with general approval here. :

Explains the Bill of Ellsworth
LiveIsberger for Driving
Ambulance.
RECOMMENDS ITS PAYMENT
THE RESIGNATION OF DR.. DAVIS
AS CITY HEALTH OFFICER WAS
ACCEPTED AND A VOTE OF
THANKS GIVEN HIM.

DR. T. Henry Davis, who after more
than thirty years is about to retire
from the Office of health officer. was
before the City Council last night to
make a statement in reference to the
bill of Ellsworth Liveslberger patrol
driver, for $500 for driving the ambu-
The bill was referred to Dr. Davis,
after going through a tOrtuOuS path,
and he made a full explanation of how
it came to exist and recommended
that it go to the committee on claims.
The only thing that DR.. Davis could
not explain was why Mr.. Livesberger
had waited SO long to present n bill
for this work.
According to DR.. Davis statement
it would cost about $1,000 a year to
maintain the ambulance separately
while as now maintained it costs but
S. per month. AS to the need for an
ambulance, DR.. Davis said there is no
room for argument He stated that
in the time the ambulance has been
used about one thousand calls have
been made and that about one third
of these have been for the hospital
He reCited the fact thatthC ambulance
was bought bv the Richmond wheel
men and would have been given to
the hospital but that that institution
was too poor to accept it. Later it
became the joint property of the city
and the hOsnital. The Ladies' Aid So
ciety provided the harness and Mr..
Livelsberger began the work of car
ing for the ambulance and answering
calls. which was extra. he claims to
the duties he is called upon by the
Police Board to perform.
While DR.. Davis was present Mayor
Zimmerman read his letter of resigna-
tiOn as health officer aHd announced
that it would be accepted and a sue
CessOr provided for the interval before
the change in administrations. Mayor
Zimmerman spoke in the highest
terms of DR.. Davis and said he was
sorry that it was not possible for him
too keep him in Office.
Mr.. LcftwiCh moved that a vote of
thanks be extended DR.. Davis by the
Council and this was seconded by Mr..
DCuker and carried by a rising vote.

BEST TENNIS YET
IN TOURNAMENT
Wiggins and Gardner Defeat
MCCabe and Neff in an In
teresting Match.
KARL MEYERS WAS HURT
WHILE PLAYING AT COUNTRY
CLUB YESTERDAY HE SPRAlN-
ED HIS ANkLE-MAY NOT BE
ABLE TO FINISH MATCH.

Playing the best tennis that has
been seen in the city tournament thus
far, Fred Virgins and Frank Gardner
defeated Guy McCabe and Nettelton
Neff yesterday afternoon at the Coun-
try Club. The first game was won
by McCabe and Neff, the score being
Ga. The next game Virgins and
Gardner took, 63 and in the final
game they demonstrated that they had
worn out their opponents for the score
was 81 and the play was as the score
indicates. This gives Virgins and
Gardner the right to play Jenkins and
Herbert in the semi-fnals.
The match between Jenkins and
Herbert on one side and Virgins and
Gardner on the other should be an
interesting one The winners OF this
match will play Hilbert and Elmer
for the championship.
While playing in the consolation
event Karl Meyers sprained his ankle
last night. He may not be able to
play for some time in which event he
and George Bond will concede their
match to Nixon and Davis. One set
has been played in this match, Bond
and Meyers winning by score Of 6-4.
When Meyers turned his ankle in the
second set the score was 81 in favor
of Davis and Nixon.
The singles will probably begin
this week and those desiring to enter
should hand in their names at once.

Agreement is Reached in the
Matter of Closing North
( Fourteenth Street.
BOTH ARE NOW SATISFIED
THE RAILROAD COMPANY LOSES
ABOUT HALF THE LAND 1T HAD
FENCED IN-STlLL RETAINS
SMALL PART OF STREET.

The city and the Pan Handle Rail
road company have effected a COmpro-
mise in the trouble growing out of the
vacation of North 14th street BY
the compromise the railroad company
is to got about half of the land it has
fenced in, and the city is to get suffi-
Cient room on the street to make II
convenient for John Evans, owner of
the Quaker City Machine company, in
front of whose plant the railroad COM
pany has built it's fence.
Acting on the complaint Of Mr.. Ev-
ans the board Of works yesterday
made a visit to the street and arrang-
ed for Superintendent Ncff of the Pan
Handle, and Attorney John Rupo, to
meet them there. With the board of
works was City Attorney Gardner and
City Engineer Charles. The railroad
officials satisfied the city that they had
the right to close in the portion of the
street they did. The board also sat
lsfied the railroad men that notWith-
standing that they had made a mis-
take in drawing up the vacation order,
that they would not allow the fence to
ItluIll as IHc company lltu DulIL II.
So they compromised.
According to the agreement reached
line is to be taken from about eigh-
teen inches south of Evans shop to
to the center of the street parallel to
the railroad tracks. From this point
a line is to be run in n nOrthwestorly
direction to Ollie and McGuirc's shop.
The railroad company is to be allowed
to keep the land west of these lines
The company will take up the track
which 1t has laid on the city's ground
at once. City Engineer Charles will
lay down the lines decided on this
week and then the railroad company
will probably build a fence there and
occupy the enclosed ground with a
switch.
Although Mr.. Evans is not satisfied
with the compromise, the board feels
that he will be after he realizes that it
was the best course they could pur-
sue after the trouble arose.

DEAD POLES STILL UP
CITY MAY REMOVE THEM
Many of the Sixteen Hundred Poles
Marked to be Taken Down Still Re-
main Standing-Counci's Attention
Is Called to Matter.

Councilman Oliver Lcftwick last
night called attention to the City
Council to the fact that dead poles
have not been removed within the city
limits as was the intention. When
Harry Weber was city engineer he
was instructed to mark all the dead
poles, and did so to the number of
1000. 1t seems that very few of
these have been removed and that
the city probably will remove them at
the owners expense.
