No Grievances Presented.

In the court room Tuesday eve- ming there was held a meeting of the Board of Trade, to attend which there had been invited the cattlemen of Santa Cruz county and Mir. Wilson, the forest reserve supervisor, to discuss the govern ment charge for grazing cattle on the forest reserves. Remarkable to relate none of those cattlemen who were instrumental in having called this meeting were pres ent to present their grievance. MT. Thos. D. Casanega, who was present from Calabasas, declared that he considers the forest reserve system fair and just, and a good measure of protection for all cat tlemen. Mir. Wilson, the forest supervisor, addressed the meeting, giving an outline of the govern. ment policy, and the benefits it Is intended to compass.

Whole No. TAO
Live Stock Market.


 KANSAS CITY, July 18th, 1907.- Cattle receipts have been smaller this week than was expected, and prices are 10 to 15 higher as re- suit. Liberal offerings of quaran- tine grass cattle have been in- cluded, and have been bought up eagerly at slightly better prices, but supplies from native territory have been small. Dry lot cattle are getting scarce, and as cattle on grass are doing extra we'll owners are disposed to make them good before putting them forward. Since the settlement of the difficult ty with the packers about inspec- ton of she stuff, and the resump- tion of trade on practically the same lines as before the agitation, receipts of cows have been light, and prices have advanced 10 to 20 cents, whereas, exactly the opposite effect was expected. A liberal run of cattle is expected next week, and some decline in prices would not be surprising Stockers and feeders are p to 40 cents lower than a week ago, having been on too high a level heretofore, but trade in this line is small, and has not fairly started in for the heavy fall business. Dry lot steers are sell ing at $6.25 to $690 this week, grass steers $4.75 to $5.3O, grass and corn up to $6.50, COWS $2.50 to $4.75, heifers $40O to $5.75, some steers and heifers mixed today at $6.35, bulls $500 to $4.75, calves 9 to 30 cents high CT, at $500 to $7.00 today, Arizona grass steers $4.60 to $4.70, stockers $3.90 to $400, COWS and heifers $3.50 to $400. A shipment of 600 Arizonas comprised about all the range receipts in native division this week, from distant points.
 A strong demand for sheep and lambs prevented break early this week although advices from the East were continually of weak nature. Buyers succeeded in get ting a reduction of 10 to 15 cents on lambs yesterday, but sheep have remained steady, at prac- tically Chicago prices on this mar ket. Range offerings have been light, and total run of sheep and lambs is less than 10000 head for the week. Texas muttons sold at $4.70 to $5.60, Arizona yearlings S5.50 to S5S0, wethers up to S5.75, ewes $500 to $5.15, lambs $7 .25 to $7,60. No goats this week.

JAPANESE INVASION.
taoanese SoIdiery Reported Gather ing in Northwestern States of Mex leo for a Descent Upon the United States.

Sundays Los Angeles Times con- tained the following special tele- gram which will be read with no small amount of interest by people living along the border:
 BY DIRECT WIRE TO THE TIMES.
 NEW YORK. July l3.- Exclusive Dispatch. The New York World tomorrow will print the following from its staff correspondent in the City of Mexico, who vouches for its absolute authenticity:
 Mine thousand veteran Japanese soldiers are now in Northwestern Mexico. They are stationed at points in the States of Sonora, Si- naloa and Chihuahua. Each group is commanded by skilled com manders who saw service in the Ruso-Japanese War.
 Thirty thousand Japanese, a vast majority of whom are veterans of the Russian campaign, are in the southwestern section of the United States and Lower California.
 Three Japanese generals, who held high rank in the Russo-Japa- nese war, have been in Mexico for three months. They dress like Mexican zanjeros and are ostensibly buying land.
 "The Transoceanic Immigration Company, whose vice-president is T. Himata, member of the Japa- nese Parliament. Is subsidized by the Japanese government to bring Japanese soldiers to Mexico. They have been coming into Mexico at the rate of 800 per month, landing at Salina Cruz, Manzanillo and other Pacific ports.
 "In case of war, the plan is for the Japanese fleet to sail up the Gulf of California, capture the port of Guaymas and use the State oi Sonora as base of operations in a campaign against the United States
 "This plan will practically y duplicate the operations against Russia when Japan seized Korea at the outbreak of the Russo-Japa' nese war. Japan, in war against the United States, will despoi Mexican territory, which has nc navy, just as she did that of Korea in the war with Russia.
 "One Japanese immigration com pany alone has brought 4000 i'm migrants to Mexico within si1 months. Sixty per cent of thes, have broken their contracts in Cen tral, Southern and Northwestern Mexico and have gone straigh to Sonora, Sinaloa and Chihuahua Others are leaving by the thou sands, all bound for Northwestern Mexico.
 "The Japanese legation her, promptly advises all immigrant on arrival that the contracts mad Tn Japan are not binding, ant warns them not to sign contract Tn Mexico embodying identica terms as those made in Japan.
 Immigration companies admi that they are steadily losing money and when asked why they continu business, say they hope some time to make it pay. They deny tha the companies are subsidized ant directed by the Japanese govern

JAPANESE ARE THICK.
About Seven Thousand Land in Few
 Months. Lazy. Arrogant and Hated

Japanese have been thick in this city for week and more past. There has probably been no day during the week when there were less than 300 here. All were vending their way toward the United States and all that were turned back were about 50 which k. M. Dudley, the contractor who is building the ex- tension of the Parral & Durango railroad, took down with him on Tuesday week to work on that road.
 A prominent railroad man who knows Mexico as few men do, was here some days ago and he was asked about the matter. In brief. he said: "I think between 5000 and 1000 Japanese have landed on the west coast of Mexico in the past few months. There are very few of them left in the south now, and they have all come north to get Into the States.
 "They will not work and they are arrogant and cordially hated by the Mexicans. When they take jobs and are ordered 10 do any thing they are really impudent in their manner, as much as to say: "We licked the Russians and we can do the same to the rest of you" !"
 This railroad man says most oi these Japs are ex-soldiers and there are engineers and men of other professions among them.
 For months, the U. s. bureau of immigration has had inspectors in Mexico watching the trend of Jap anese immigration. According to reports received at the department of commerce and labor 1t is per fectly evident that hundreds oi Japanese laborers who arrive in Mexico have no intention of re- maining in this country, but regard it merely as stopping place en route to the United States. Testi- mony has been adduced by the i'm migration inspectors to this effect.
 It Is not believed by the immi grafton authorities that the Japan ese government is a party to thi' arrangement as it has discouraged immigration to the United Statet in every way. Thousands of Japa nese laborers are said to be in Mex leo merely awaiting an opportunity to cross the border.
 Efforts are now being made by the immigration authorities to es tablish a system of inspection by which 1t will be made difficult fo
 Japanese or other aliens to get into the United States either from Mex
 ico or British Columbia.
 What is perhaps one of the mos interesting sights to be witnessed
 in Mexico, is that of hundreds o
 Japanese, turned tramps, maxim,
 their way from points on the Man zanillo extension of the Mexican Central, along the railroad lines bound for the northern border
 Along the line of the Central nort ,, and south iron this city, scores C them can be seen from nearly an passing train, doggedly ploddin along on foot, disdainful of tn : more speedy though more expen; i've method of travel in the cars.- Chihuahua Enterprise.

mission Expected to Accom-
pliSh Great Work.

New York. Aug. st is announced that
one result of the investigation of the local
railroads by the public service commits
sion which is being conducted by William
WINS, as counsel will be an order to
the InterborOugh- Metropolitan company to
change the type of car in the subway.
Cars with side doors il is stated, will be
ordered and it is expected they will do
away with the crude stations now SO
much complained of. The innovation will
cost 81, 900, 900 or more.
While much of the testimony brought
out at the hearing is chiefly of local i'm
pOTtanca, there are occasionally some de-
velopments OF more than passing interest.
One of these is that in forty per cent of
the cars run upon the local roads there
are straphangers. Another interesting

sion is doing and which New Workers are
noting, is the sending of men to all sec

WILL NOT ARBITRATE.
Los Angeles 6oilermakers Insist
Upon Their Demands.

Los Angeles, Aug. 9-The striking boil
ermakers on the Southern Pacific who
walked out this week because of alleged
discrimination against union men in the
Los Angeles shops today declined the Of
fer of arbitration submitted by the COM
panY. President Payne of Division No o
of the International Brotherhood of Boil
ermaSers and Iron Ship Builders Of
America. said to the Associated Press:
We decline arbitration because labor
nearly always gets the worst of it in such
cases and for the further reason that the
present strike cannot under any circum-
stances be settled except upon the COM
pany granting our demands. These de-
mands are reasonable. We are only ask
ing that Foreman Carter of the Los An
geles office be removed from his present
place and put somewhere else so that he
cannot continue his work of discriminating
against our members and dscharging
them without cause.
According to my advice about 800 men
are out in my division. which extends
from FL Paso to Portland and from San
Francisco to ogden. Not a boilermaker
is working. Moreover. the Atlantic dvi-
sion is ready to join us and it is possible
they may be called upon. That is the New

HALSEY UNDER THE KNIFE
Alleged San Francisco Briber Oper-
ated Upon for Serious Case
of Appendicitis.

San Francisco. Aug. 9-Dr. Thomas f
Shunate reported the condition of Theo-
dore V. Haisey, on trial for bribery to
Judge DuEne in she superior court this
morning when the case was called after
the adjournment necessitated yesterday by
the sudden illness of the defendant DR.
Shumate testified that he performed an
operation for appendicitis on Mr. Halsev
at $3.50 o'clock last night in the presence
of Dr. Galway and DR.. Sweeney at the
St. Francis hospital. He said he found
the appendix in gangrenOus state and
removed II. The condition of Mr.
Halsey today said DR.. Shumate ssis
very serious. It is entirely imDracticabIe
TO say how long Mr.. Halsey will be con-
fined to his bed if he RECEIVERS. Nor is it
possible to say what chance for recovery
he has The case is grave. partly because
of the weakened condition of the patient
at the time he was seized and partly be-
cause of the severe and extensive nature
of the intestinal disorder
After a brief cross-eXamination of Dr.
Shumate by Prosecuting Attorney john
son, Judge Dunno announced his decision
hospital to examine Mr.. Halsey and re-
port to the court at 10 O'Clock Monday
morning. to which time adjournment was
taken.
After the session Dr. Shumate said. dis
cussing Mr.. Haisey's case informally:
Mr. Halsey rallied a little after the
operation and he passed as comfortable
a night as could be expected under the
circumstances. He is conscious Should
he recover his condition will be serious
for some time to come"
In Judge Graham's department of the
superior court the defense was granted
continuance until next Wednesday of
the amendment of the court minutes with
respect 10 the empanelment of the Oliver
grand jury. Upon the determination of
this amendment rests I'm part the dispo-
sition to be made in Judge Lawlor's de-
partment OF the motion to set aside in
dictments against officials OF the tele-
phone company, and United Railroads and
the Gas company.
At 2 O'Clock this afternoon DIR. Shumate
made the following statement:
"Mr. Halsey is holding his own. He
has rallied from the surgical shock and

the chances for his recovery are unfavor-
