 Yamaoka,. who brought about the e liance of the Japanese of the Pg< 4r coast is now one of the recoe s5PJd leaders of the Progressive factio, $.1ch is led by Toru Hoshly, formerly lister to the United States, who 7 < assas- sinated after he returned 1okio in 1897 and acceptea place l. Nhe Cabi- net.
 Yamaoka is described as one of the shrewdest politicians in the Empire. and 1t is said that by means of public meetings and otherwise he will, as leader of the anti-administration forces continue his fight against the Saionji ministry with the view of getting con- trol of the reins of Government Tor the Progressives.
 It is stated here that he will make the charge that Foreign Minister Hay ashi has allowed Ambassador Aoki to pursue a too conciliatory course and to make too many concessions in deal ing with the American Government re- garding the San Francisco questions. While in Washington Messrs. Taka- hashi. Nodav and Kawakami were in frequent conference with Ambassador Aoki until finally there was an open rupture which caused the delegation to make the threat to the Ambassador that they would report his "treachery'' to the home government and demand his recall. While no intimation has come from Tokio that Yamaoka has re- quested the Ambassadors removal from office, the news of such demand will not come as a surprise to Viscount Aoki.
 Dr. Miyakawa, the Japanese lawyer. who filed the injunction suit against the San Francisco School Board in the school case. was consulted by the Pa cifc coast delegation during their stay in this city as to the method of pro- cedure if any, to bring about the an- nullment of the objectionable clause in the immigration bill. Dr. Mfyak- ava, who has been here for several weeks on professional business, today admitted that he was in conference with Messrs. Takahashi. Nodav and Kawakami almost daily during their stay in Washington, but he declined to discuss the nature of these confer ences.
 Further than to admit that Messrs. Takahashi, Nodav and Kawakami were here to discuss the immis grafton law with the Ambassador, the Secretary of the Embassy refused to answer ques- tions regarding their visit.

EVERY HAND RAISED
FRENCH WINE GROWERS PROTEST
 AGAINST ADULTRRATION.
Multitude Of People Taken To Mont pelier By 400 Trains Agree To
 Strike And Act As

Montpelier, France, June 9.-Today's monster demonstration by wine grow CTS marked the climax of tine situa- ton which has arisen because of demand by the growers that the gov ernment stop the widespread adultera- tion of wine.
 At the gigantic meeting held at Per pignan May 19, a resolution was passed that if the government did not give full satisfaction to the demand of the growers a civil strike will be inaugu- rated June 10
 At a meeting held after the parade today, Marcelin Albert referred to his resolution and announced that the time had come for action. He invited the assembled multitude to swear solid arity of action and immediately every hand was raised.
 The mayor of Narbonne will be the first to open the strike. He and the entire municipal council will resign to- morrow after having publicly dis missed all municipal employees. Others will follow suit in the course of few days.
 ing during the last two days and nights. It slept in the public buildings and in churches placed at its disposal by the archbishop It required over 400 trains to bring the assemblage here, a feat unprecedented in the his tory of the commune. At the time fixed for the parade the people lined up at appointed places without the slightest disorder. All observers were struck by the extraordinary perfection of the organization. It was not neces- sary for the troops or police to inter- fere with the multitude, which was variously estimated at from 100000 to soc, ,O00. A feature was the large pro- portion of women participating. Groups bore banners with various inscriptions and carried coffins, guillotines. etc.

STEVE ADAMS
 WILL TESTIFY Prisoner Witness On
 Way to Boise. ORCHARDS CRIME PARTNER His Story May Surpass States
 Chief Witness. Mrs. Orchard Expected to Go on stand md Swear Her Husband Was
 Employed by Mine
ORCHARDS CRIME PARTNER

Boise, Idaho, June 9-Steve Adams. another prisoner-witness for the State against w. D. Haywood, Is now on his way to Boise. coming from the jail at Wallace, where he is held pending trial on the charge of murder.
 Adams, according to Harry Orchard, was the partner of the assassin in many of the jumping off expeditions" successful and unsuccessful to which Orchard had made confession. Adams also confessed last year but unlike Dr. chard he repudiated the document when he faced tho gallows. The confession Is. however, sworn to and in writ ing. It shows careful correction and interlineation in Adams's own hand writing.
 Astounding though 1t may seem, those who have seen Adams's confess sion say 1t surpasses Orchards story of cold -blooded man hunting and mur- der. The list of Adams's alleged vfc- tims is not as long as that with which Orchard credits himself. but this is said to be because Steve still-hunted a single quarry while Orchard, to use his own words. "did not care whether he killed one man or fifty" as he felt at that time"
 Mrs. Orchard to Swear.
 Another interesting witness who arr rived here today is Mrs. Ida Toney Orchard the widow with three chil- dren whom Orchard took to be his wife. notwithstanding the existence of another wife living In Canada Mrs. Ida Toney Orchard will be witness for the defense. It is understood she will testify that Orchard while he liv- ed at Cripple Creek was in the em- ploy of the mine owners. It Is ex- pected by the defense that she will be able to throw light upon the mo- lives of Orchard and will be relied on to strengthen the claim of the defense that mine owners and not the Western Federation of Miners were the con- spirators who employed Orchard to murder.
 Orchard married the second time at Cripple Creek. when he was at work as a miner. At that time he was a member of the miners union. They were married shortly before the great strike broke out in 1904. The woman was keeping a miners boarding house
 Some new light has been thrown on the murder of Lyte Gregory in Den yer According to a statement made by the police in Denver, Orchard and Simpkins or whoever his accomplice was, were suspected at the time of the murder Bloodhounds tracked them to the yard behind Pettibone's store, where Orchard said he his his guns and other evidence was discovered. The police were about to arrest the two men when orders came from some mysterious source that the men were not to be molested and Orchard was allowed to get out of town.
 This statement Is said to have been made by Chief of Detectives Loomis of Denver and Paul Gregory. brother of the murdered man, made similar statement It is likely that both will be called as witnesses and the myste- rious order allowing Orchard to get away will be investigated.

CROP
 FAR BEHIND Rainy Weather is at Last About Broken. POOR STANDS ARE REPORTED Late Frest in Fall is Necessary to
 Farmers. Planters Redoubling Efforts to nrins Stands to Fruition--wn Not
 Exceed 60 Per Cent of { Last Year.
POOR STANDS ARE REPORTED

New Orleans. June 9.-The Picayune tomorrow will say:
 Hot' dry. windy weather during the week ending today, has worked inaFked change in cotton crop condi- tions Tn Louisiana and the southern nalt or mississippi, according to re- ports received by The Picayune.
 In some sections this Is the first week In two months without rain. and the nrst opportunity in forty days that the farmers have had to do field work. notwithstanding this, the crop is still rom nve to six weeks late, and Is yet grassy and shows poor stands in some localities. This Is both the result of the long period of unfavorable weather and also lack of competent labor.
 The plant has undoubtedly recovered 10 some extent, and is rapidly recuper- ating. It will require three weeks to get the crop in normal condition, and this period must be free of excessive rain in order to attain this result. Some or the cotton Is too grassy to be saved, even under the most favorable weather conditions. From now on, there will be practically no repIanting, planters redoubling their efforts in an endeavor to bring to fruition the present stands. A late frost next fall is absolutely necessary.
 Some sections estimate that the crop will not exceed 50 per cent of last year. considering the general condition Of the plant and acreage reduction forced by inability to plant at the proper season. Reports state that the abandonment of area runs from to 10 per cent Although water is fall ing slowly in the lowlands. neverthe- less considerable area Is still in- undated.
 Boil weevils are eating the buds and leaves of the young plants in Natchit- oches Parish. Louisiana. The pest is also doing some damage in St. Tam many Parish. Insects of a different nature arc reported in Kinds County, Mississippi. In Red River Parish. Louisiana, from to 20 per cent of the land Is in poor shape on account of boil weevil ravages.
