evidences were discovered that cleared I'D the
mysteries of several disappearances. Skeletons
OF non-union miners who were believed to have
been killed, but the proof of whose death had
never been found, were discovered
The most startling part of Adams's alleged con-
fession is the murder of Arthur Collins manager
OF the Smuggler-Union mine, near Telluride in
colorado. After making the confession Adams
was taken to Collinss house and pointed out
where he stood to fire the shot that killed Col
inns. An accumulation Of corroborative evidence
is said to have been obtained.
Collins was shot through the window of his
library, where he was playing cards with some
women. Adams spent that night at the house
on the occasion of his visit in charge of General
Wells. A cartridge was found at the place
Adams pointed out, and a witness met man
walking away from the place carrying a pun
just after the shot was heard. Another man
says that he met the same later, but that he
had no gun. The weapon was found between
the Two places. 1t is said that, should Adams
De acquitted of the murder for which he is vet
TO stand trial. the Colorado authorities will
requlstion the Governor Of Idaho and will try
him on the charge of the murder of Collins
Ihere is some belief that Adams may yet re-
peat his alleged confession. Counsel for the
prosecution say they are not depending upon
Adams to confirm Orchard, but that they have
sufhciency of corroborative testimony.

grams over both lines are being shown to coun-
sci for the prosecution in the Haywood case,
officers Of the Western Federation Of Miners are
now using the registered mail and special de-
livery service for all their communications with
the prisoners and their counsel at Boise.
That w. D. Haywood is confident he can null
lily the evidence of Orchard against him and
obtain his acquttal is shown by the following
message he sent the convention of the Western
Federation of Miners to-day:
Harry Orchard is the greatest liar OF the TWEEN

in his confession stands ready TO testify am
determined to take the stand and show where
he has lied There will be nothing to my case

NO OFFICIAL NOTICE,
Secretary Root Refuses to Discuss
the Japanese Situation.

washington. June 11.-Secretarv Root +o 1o,,
positively declined TO make any statement 70
spectIng the japanese situation. This was doro
with the full knowledge of the uneasiness which
exists in financial circles as the result of oirc,
,atjon of war rumors.
II may be SAID, however that the Secret ar1,,e
refusal was based solely upon his unwilIinpness
10 accord the rurnors official notice. and not ,,po
any belief on his part that there was tho Loo.
danger Of war, or even of a breach of ,bo
friendly relations that now exist between A,,a.
lea and Japan.
The fact is that in the official mind the presant
agitation is nothing more than the vvor1,inr =
internal japanese politics. strenuous o,ros;-
ton party in Japan, in seeking for yyeanons ;,
attack the party in power, is appealing 70 tfa
pOpulace and to the pride OF the Japanese to
afront the United States. The ground of com
plant, il IS stated here, might easily be made
popular. in view of the overpopulation Of Japan
and the demand for admission to foreign coun-
tries for the cooe class.
In view. however, Of the assurances that have
been conveyed to the officials here that Count
Okuma's party in Japan (Which is behind the
present agitation) is not likely to secure control
Of the government in the immediate future not
much apprehension is felt here. The situation
was summed up by high official to-day in the
following response to the question as to what
could be said TO allay the uneasiness in this
country:
IF the administration has any fear OF trouble
with Japan growing out of the disturbances in
San Francisco no responsible official is willing
TO admit it. On the contrary, State Department
officials profess to feel hopeful that everything
will come out all right and that the situation
between the two countries will gradually become
norma That Japan has made no complaint to
the United States was the statement made most
positively in responsible quarters to-day: there
Is no trouble between the two countries and
there is no danger of war. The greatest fear is
from the agitation carried by certain news
papers in both countries and from this officials
admit there Is constant danger. Aside from this
officials will not admit there is ANYTHING which
cannot be adjusted in the ordinary diplomatic
way"
