TESTS TiMBER's STRENGTH.
Ingenious Machine Worked by Forest
Service at New Haven.

Washington, Sept. 1.-THE Forest
service for some time past has been
carrying on a series OF experiments at
it's timber testing station at New Ha-
ven, Conn.,, to determine the effect OF
continuous loads applied for long per-
iods OF time to wooden beams. The
beams are tested by an ingenious appd-
ratus, which is go arranged that the
load on the specimens is constant, how
ever much they may bend.
The most interesting part OF the test
ing machine is large paper covered
drum, slowly revolving by clockwork,
upon which a continuous record OF the
amount Of bending in the specimen
under test is recorded. This bending,
or DETECTION, is shown on the drum by
pencil mark, the pencil being con-
nected to the center of the beam by a
eystem of levers 30 arranged as to con-
siderably multiply the actual bending
Of the beam before it is recorded on the
drum.
Information as to the effects Of loads
applied to wooden beams for long per-
iods of time is not at present very def
mite, and it is expected that the results
of the experiments now in progress at
New Haven will furnish much valuable
information which will be OF great ben.
eft to the lumber industry.

FRAUDS IN FOREST LANDS.
Valuable Timber Land Secured Under
Gujse Of Mineral.

Helena, Mont, Sept. 1O.-Evidently
suspceting frauds in connection with
the location OF mining claims in the
Helena forest reserve, the national gov
ernment has sent Arthur j. Collier, of
Washington, D. c., to this city to con-
duct an investigation. The Helena for
est is among the largest in the state
and includes the Butte field, where q
strict investigation will be conducted
also.
The main purpose Of the government
is to secure restorations to the public
domain where it can be shown that
under the guise of locating mining
claims, valuable timber rights have
been availed of, the law permitting
actual prospectors the right to the ne
cessarv timber in the development OF
their claims.
Therefore, no more patents to min
ing claims will be granted except where
the good faith of the locator is proved.
Where timber lands have been secured
in this manner the government will
endeavor to effect restoration.
Referring to the investigations and
classifcations of the coal lands OF East
ern Montana and Western North Da-
kota, Mr.. Collier said that the work
has been undertaken by the govern
nent with definite policy of prevent
ing the coal companies and railroads of
the West from monopolizing the West
ern coal lands as those of the East have

CHARGES AGAINST RUICK.
Said to Have Forced Grand Jury to
Indict Borah.

Boise, Idaho, Sept. l3.-Judge Diet
rich in the Federal court yesterday is-
sued an order for special grand jury
to appear on Thursday, September 10.
The order was issued at the instance OF
Judge M. c. Burch, special assistant
attorney general of the United States,
who is here for the purpose OF inquir-
ing into matters in connection with the
Idaho land frauds.
1t ia understood here that the order
was really the result of a plea in abate-
ment filed by the attorneys for Frank
Martin, one of the men indicted with
Senator Borah and others, which plea
makes serious and sensational charges
of misconduct on the part OF United
States Attorney Ruick.
These charges are that Ruick used
force and coercion in securing the in
dictments of Borah and his fellow de-
PENDANTS, and are supported by the affi-
davits of three of the grand jurymen

RIOTS MEAN EXCLUSION.
Trouble in Vancouver viii Help Solve
Problem in u. g.

Washington, Sept. IL. - That q
stringent exclusion treaty between
America and Japan is measurably near
er realization than the most optimistic
administration official could have be-
lieved 4S hours ago, is the judgment Of
the members Of the diplomatic corps.
This long sought object is expected to
be attained, perhaps, as an indirect re-
suit of the mobbing of the Japanese
at Vancouver, B. c., last Saturday
night. Officials here deplore what they
view as an unfortunate and unwarrant-
ed infraction OF the treaty rights Of
the japanese, but they do not fail to
perceive at once the important bearing
that this incident will probably have
upon the negotiations between the
State department and the japanese
am bassador, looking to the drafting of
treaty that shall limit the incoming
of Japanese coolies instead of allowing
the subject to be dealt with in the
present loose fashion by what amount
to semi-official undertakings on the part
of the Japanese government to withhold
passports 10 coolies coming directly to
the United States.

LAND HINDUS At VICTORIA.
MonteagIe Turns Back, Fearing VIC
jence at Vancouver.

Ottawa, Ont, Sept. 13.-Advices
from Vancouver state that the mayor OF
Vancouver has warned the captain OF
the steamer Monteagle, which has on
board ia Japanese, 149 Chinese and
GAL Hindus, destined for this port, that
he would be unable to guarantee safe
landing here, because the unionists
have expressed their determination to
resist the immigration OF any more
Asiatic laborers. The steamship au-
thorities feared to assume the risk and
the vessel has been turned back to
Victoria, where the Asiatics will be
landed.
Vancouver is reported as being COM
parativelv quiet, but an outrage by two
Cinnamon yesterday has again intamed
the people. The Mongolians, while
passing along one of the main streets,
saw white baby sitting on the door
step. They snstched it up and threw
it into the middle Of the street, which
wa. busy with traffic. 1t fell among
the horses feet and narrowly escaped
death. Beyond being bruised it was
not much the worse. An angry crowd
started in pursuit. The Chinese had a
good start and escaped. The fact that
no arrests have been made has not
tended to allay the temper of the peo-
pie.

NEW RIOT AMONG CARMEN.
San Francisco Police Are Accused OF
Shooting at Strik kebreakerS.

San Francisco, Sept. 13.-Another
scene Of riot was enacted at the Twenty
fourth and Utah streets carbarn last
night, following the arrest of William
A. Bruce, nonunion carman, on COM
plant of two young women that he had
annoyed them by remark as they
passed. Bruce resisted arrest and was
severely clubbed. The police allege
that they were thereupon attacked by
numbers of nonunion men. A riot
squad OF 25 patrolmen under Lieuten-
ant Tobin came up and in a fight a
score of heads were broken by clubs
Of the police and number Of arrests
were made. Eventually the nonunion
men were driven back into the car
barns. The police say that the carman
who started the row is an ex-convict.
Mayor Taylor has increased the
Mission patrol by % men, in accord
ance with his promise of yesterday.
The pickets' tent at Twenty fourth and
Potrero streets, a block from the COM
pany's barn, is to be removed. 1t has
been a headquarters for trouble for
weeks past.
The Chronicle commenting upon the
furious rioting in the Mission district,
when five nonunion car operatives in
the employ of the United Railroads
were shot by union pickets and police
men, charges fatty that the police am
bushed the nonunion men and fought
against them side by side with their
union tormentors. The Chronicle
points out that the patrolmen-Wade,
Bigelow and Miller-who shot down
the carmen, were appointed to the po.
lice force from the teamsters' and car
mons unions soon after the commence
ment of the streetcar strike, when 9

Coal Prices Will Raise.

San Francisco, Sept. IA persist
ent rumor is rife to the effect that a
rise in the price Of coal on the Pacific
coast is pending and it is said that
those in close touch with the market
conditions are availing themselves OF
the knowledge to prepare for the ex-
igency, with benefit 20 themselves.
Some of the leading wholesale dealers
deny in positive terms that there is
ANYTHING in the story. Others claim
they know nothing of it and will not
discuss the situation. The marked &C.
tivity in shipping circles, however
coupled with the reticence OF some to
discuss the matter and the emphatic
denial of others seems to lend color to
the report.

HAPPENINGS GATHERED IN AND
AROUND WASHINGTON, D. e.
NEVER HEARD OF PUTER.
Land Grafter's Fare AIread, Dim In
Government Offices,


Washington. Sept. IL. - Fame is
short-lived. Only a few days ago a
letter was received by the Forest SER
vice in this city asking for various bits
Of information regarding public land
conditions in the state of Oregon. The
letter bore the signature "S. A. D.
Puter." The questions were leading
ones and indicated that the writer was
not dealing with an unfamiliar sub
iect, rather that he was an old hand at
it. Some Of the questions could not be
answered by the Forest service, 80 the
letter was referred to the general land
Office, and came back with the answers
and with this notation:
"Who is this writer Puter? We
never heard of him."
The Forest service was no more &C.
ouainted with the man or the name
than was the general land Office, and
when Puter's letter was passed from
one official to another, it was always
with the remark: "Never heard of
him." It was not until complete
answer had been mailed to Puter that
an official asked a newspaper cores
pondent if he had ever heard Of Putsr.

SAN FRANCISCO
Scene OF RIOT
Five Nonun1on::S n::StreetECar Employees
Shot In Affray.
Company Says Union Pickets Started
TroubIe-POIice Have Entirely Diff
ferent version-Bloody Battle Oc-
CURED After Midnight-Two Men
viii Die.

San Francisco, Sept. l2.-On Mon
day night a desperate encounter oc-
CURED between, on the one side, men
employed by the United Railways and
on the other striking carmen and police.
Five men were shot, two fatally, one OF
the latter being the victim of shot
fred by policeman.
Two accounts Of the affray have been
furnished, which are directly opposed
to each other in fixing the blame for
the rioting. One account is that given
by the policemen concerned in the tus-
illade that was poured into the band OF
employees of the company, and the 9TH
er is that Of the railway officials who
investigated the matter, as they claim,
in as thorough manner as possible.
The bloody battle started shortly
after midnight near the United Rail
road car barn at Twenty-fourth and
Utah streets, and, according to .the
statement OF the police, was the result
of plot that has been brewing among
Calhoun's nonunion employees for a
couple CT weeks. 1t was the plan OF
the nonunion men to drive out the
union pickets who have taken up quar-
ters near the carbarn and have been
housed in tents there since the begin
ming Of the strike.
Just at the stroke OF midnight a
United Railroads repair car was run
out of the carbarn. 1t was manned by
a score Of armed strikebr eakers, and az
it speeded noiselessly along the tracks
in the direction Of the union pickets all
lights were extinguished. When near
ly opposite the tents the fret shots
we're fired, strikebreakers say, by the
union pickets, the pickets declare by
the armed men on the cars.
The version of the affair given out by
the United Railroads people officers
materially from the story OF the police
and is in part as follows:
"The story OF a plot is ridiculous
That repair car was first started Out
from the carbarn fer the purpose O.
making some necessary repairs to tracks
and wires injured during the days run
The men on that car when it first wen
out were the regular repair gang
There were no gun fighters and not ont
of the men was armed. When the.
passed the tents Of union pickets rock
were thrown, breaking every window
and then shooting commenced from thu
tents.
"The men in the repair car rushed
back to the barn for reinforcements ant
a trailer loaded with armed men wen
out to follow and protect the repai
crew on it's second trip. Fire wa
opened again when the two cars wen
speeding past the union picket tent
and our men returned the fire.

Japanese Laying in Stock of Arms and
Ammunition - Trouble is Feared
When Steamer MsnteagIe Arrives
--Asiatics All Stop Work Under
Pressure.

Seattle, Sept. 10.-A special to the
Times from Vancouver, B. c., says:
AS result OF the disorders Saturday
and Sunday evenings, the situation
here with regard to Asiatics is increas-
ing in menace. The japanese have
notified Chief OF Police Chamberlain
that police protection is inadequate and
they will take steps to protect them
selves. Chinese and Japanese en-
ployed in hotels and restaurants have
withdrawn from work. 1t is said that
Oriental leaders have instructed them
they must not work under penalty of
800. The Japanese are purchasing
firearms and the aspect of affairs is
threatening.
Steamer Monteagle, due to arrive
Wednesday or Thursday with many
Orientals en- board, will be met by a
hostile demonstration. 1t is freely de-
clared that the Orientals will not be
allowed to land.' There is growing un-
easiness in the city. The feeling is in
creasing that, in view of the number of
Japanese, Chinese and Hindus in Van
couver, the minister Of militia should
take steps to protect them. Several
restaurant keepers met this morning
and resolved to employ nothing but
white labor.
Early reports Of the disorders satur-
day night we're exaggerated. The
crowd amounted to about 10000, but
the temper displayed was merely bois-
ferrous. The crowd surged through the
streets in the Oriental quarters, cheer
ing everything white and hooting and
denouncing everything colored. At in
tervals from some indistinguishable
point in the crowd brickbate would
hurtle over intervening heads and crash
through windows. Chief Of Police
Chamberlain, recognizing the made
quacy of the force at his disposal, re-
lied on diplomacy. Fearful of arousing
the passion Of the mob, he directed his
men to lay aside their truncheons and
exercise moderation. Later the order
regarding truncheons was revoked, but
at no stage did the police and populace
come to blows.

TROUBLE IS EXPECTED.
ArrivalIof Japanese on Monteagle Like
" to Provoke Riot.

Vancouver, B. G., Sept. H.-If the
steamship Monteagle, due in Vancouver
today with q shipload of Japanese Ia
borers, attempts to land her men, there
is serious danger of an outbreak OF
rioting. The temper OF the Vancouver
public will not permit the Japanese to
be landed and the provincial author
tiles may temporize with the situation
by refusing to admit the Orientals.
Though Vancouver is quiet now, the
situation has not improved, for the
Japanese have purchased every avail
able firearm both in Vancouver and
New Westminster. The Vancouver au-
thorities, becoming alarmed over the
sale of weapons to the Japanese, for
bade further sales, but the Orientals
Immediately went to New Westminster
and got guns. The New Westminster
authorities said they had no authority
to prevent the sale of arms.
