OF GEN STONES AWAY

C. A. Beghtol went to Cotopaxi on
Friday for the purpose of superintend-
ing the shipment OF a quantity of rose
quartz, lately mined near that place,
to Denver, where 1t will be passed
upon by experts and subsequently
sent to Germany to be worked up into
articles for personal adornment. Mr..

rose quartz to be had as in this coun-
ty, and he expresses the opinion that
its mining will become an industry
of considerable importance within the
next few years. There were two tons

the largest ever sent out of this coun-
ty at one time.

Lake City, Colo, June 20.-Not fear
ing the outcome of his trial ON a
charge of shooting Mayor B. F. Cum
mings, his friends say, but unwilling
to remain behind bars until the case
could be brought up in court, s. H.
Kinsey, prominent Lake City politi-

wall and escaped
He left two notes, one addressed to
Sheriff Hunt, which said: will be
back court week in time for trial.

Hold my mail and stop papers" All
evidences indicate that the prisoner
had aid from the outside and is now
probably being concealed in the home
of some friend.
The escape was effected during the
night but was not discovered until
this morning, when T. H. Kirksr,
coming to the city from East Lake,
noticed the hole in the east wall OF
the county Jail. He Immediately mott
fed the officers.
kinsey probably had several hours
lead. and as 4 severe rain and snow
storm is raging here, the officers have
little hope of capturing him.
Kinsey was charged with assault
with intent to kill Mayor Cummings.
The shooting occurred on election
night shortly after Cummings success
was announced. 1t appears that Kin
sey opposed Cummings election and
that an argument as to the fairness
OF the balloting resulted in Kinsey
taking a shot at his rival.

PRESIDENTS DISPLEASURE

Washington, June 21.-Viscount 40
XII, the Japanese ambassador. has in
CURED President Roosevelt's4 displea-
sure because of his lack of delicacy
and discretion in conducting the ne
gotiations relating to the San Francis
CO attacks on Japanese.
Aoki's recall is due to three things:
Being out of favor with President
Roosevelt; marrying a German wom-
an. which made him unpopular in his
own country, and not getting full SOC
ial recognition from the members of
the diplomatic corps here.
Before President Roosevelt left for
Oyster Bay the Japanese ambassador
talked with him about the attacks on
Japanese in California and about the
destruction of their property. Aoki
diplomatically limited that the United
States should pay indemnity to Japan
for the San Francisco mobs outrage.
President Roosevelt remained silent
and mistaking this silence for ac-
quiescence in the suggestion, the am
hassador made a definite proposition
that the United States pay an in
demnity.
There was no miStaking the presi-
dents attitude. He forcibly expressed
disapproval of the proposition and
dismissed the ambassador with advice
to conduct his negotiations in future
with the state department
Secretary Root was informed Of the
incident and Immediately changed his
Gemeanor toward the Japanese am
bassador Since that time the inter-
course between the two men has been
cold and formal, only official matters
being discussed when they meet Pre-
viously Secretary Root had been some
what impatient with viscount Aoki
because of his persistence in pressing
trivial matters.
When the ambassador made his in
demnity proposition to Secretary Taft
he was told that japanese have no
more rights than American citizens
have. The only redress Americans
have In such cases is to resort to the
courts and sue for damages. But at
the same time the federal government
urged the governor OF California to
give ample police protection to the
Japanese This is now being done.
