 OF JAPANESE

That dishonesty and indecency char acterize the trading and lower classes of the Japanese. and that the influx of Japanese laborers to the Pacific coast is secretly encouraged by the Japanese government and is part of a considered plan. Is the deliberate opin- ion of George c. Gould Oriental sales manager of the United States Paper Export association of New York. whC has just arrived on the Empress of Japan
 Mir Gould expressed his opinion 5 very forcihly to Colonist reporter yes. terday at the Driarl hotel He said:
 "The Japanese laborers you are get ting over here are the worst and low est class of the Japanese as a general rule You have only to see them in their native country to realize how debased and animal like they are. could give you instances that have come under ny own observation dur
 ing my residence in the Orient, but your paper could not print them. It
 is mistake to suppose that the Jap ancse government is opposed to the men coming over here. On the con .rary it is the universal opinion of the white colony in Japan that they are exceedingly anxious to have as many Japanese as possible in Hawaii the United States and British Co umbia. They think they may com" m handy when the trouble comes.
 "White people in the Orient agre, that the Japanese need a whipping be in a position to administer it for too long; Great Britain is too closely allied to Japan in many ways. so if is generally thought that the task is up to the United States In fact. it is the concensus of opinion there that the war is bound to come. It is also the general opinion that were Japan not so hard up that she would start the contest tomorrow before the Unit cd States had strengthened her forces by land and sea on the Pacific coast. But it is recognized that Japan could not count on even financial support from Great Britain in such a war. SO sh' is obliged to keep peace

WHIRlING WHEEL
 IS FATAL

SAN JOSE.-George T. Parks, a young engineer at the Western Distil- leries companys works near Agnews, the son of a well-known family here was hurled to his death by a flying shaft wheel in which his coat became entangled tonight. Parks was to have been married to Miss Laura Goranta next Sunday
 In some way the young woman learned of the accident soon after it occurred, and waving aside all re- straint. rushed to the place where her dead lovers body lay. Arriving there before the coroner she caught a glimpse of his crushed and mangled body and created a pitiful scene.
 Parks was oiling some machinery iwhen he was killed. He was caught in the machinery. thrown 40 feet in the air and whirled round and round the shaft wheel before his clothing finally gave way and dropped his iifeless body to the ground. The accident was wit messed by number If his fellow work . men, who were powerless to r,nder as sistance. An inquest will be held by the coroner tomorrow morning.

AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENTS.

The New York Times has kept record of serious automobile accidents reported for the months of June. July and August. It does not contend that the record is a complete one. but it is definite and verified. as far as it goes
 It certainly is to be hoped it is com plete, for it is a record that is appal- ling. The total it gives is 96: in them badly injured. As to the cause of the disasters 29 were charged to reckless driving; II by reason of the machine not being under control: 10 because of faulty brakes and steering gear: nine on account of collision with trolley cars; in eight cases, persons were run down upon the streets; seven accidents came through collision with railroad trains at highway crossings: four fol- lowed the frightening of horses: three came from the explosion of tires.
 From a study of the showing. the Times points out that in far the great CT number of cases the burden of blame rests upon the driver of the car. and not upon the automobile itself. This is a confirmation of the general i'm pression. Considering the very large number of machines now in use. the showing as to the automobile itself is warrant of its phenomenal in crease in popularity. Given reasonable treatment and care, the horseless car riage seems to be a very worthy inst:- tuition, but as it is still used the trail of blood it is spreading is intolerable.

ADVICE OF
 BOARD IS
 REFUSED

WASHINGTON. D. C.-Bluff Rear Admiral Bob" Evans. commanding the Atlantic fleet refuses to take sugges- tions from the general board on the running of his shipF. The general board prepared a program of battle tac- tics for the employment of the vessels under Admiral Evans command. That officer did not relish the idea of car rying out a scheme which originated with the departmental strategists and is described as expressing in volcanic language his willingness to take or Gers from such a source.
 gram of the general board in this pLr- ticular was ignored by Read Admiral Evans, who proceeded upon his own responsibility and conducted the evolu- tions to suit himself. Suggestions from the naval general board have been es- teemed of value beyond the question or any individual officer, no matter how exalted his rank or how extensive the scope of his authority.
 But "Fighting Bob Evans cannot see it that way and he practically has defied the board to call him to account.
