at the idea of Iowa enforcing the
mulct law or any other law in Dav-

fact that he is to be tried by court
martial with his only defense tech
nical claim that he obeyed orders, and

broken hearted over the probability Of
military disgrace.

JAPANESE CONSUL INVOLVED.
Ono Of Those Accused in immigration
Scandal at Vancouver.

Vancouver, B. c., Nov. 26.--Goverri-
ment commissioners who are investt-
eating the Japanese invasion question
have unearthed a problem that may
involve the local Japanese consul.
Three months ago steamer with 900
Japanese on board arrived here from
Honolulu. The men were allowed to
land and then the Japanese consul COL
lected from each one the sum of $25.
In defense of the consul, Japanese
say the money was advanced to each
many by the agent in Honolulu, wiso
arranged for the trip. as each had 10
have that much money to pass the
immigration officials. 1t is alleged the
agent was acting for Grand Trunk
Pacific people, who wanted the coolies
to work on their new line. The rail-
road officials deny this.
The consul is silent on the matter,
but if the charges against him are
proven, it will be shown that he was
mixed up in the deal to import the
coolies, charging them for his serv-
ices.
immigration agents Of the United
States in attendance at the hearing
say that most of the Japanese hoped
to enter the United States and that
they have positive evidence to that
effect
