PRESS SILENT
Promised Outburst of Indigna. lion in Japan Failed 10
 MaterialiZe
A STATEMENT ISSUED

Tokio, July 3.-The expected out burst of indignation in view of the latest development in the anti-Jap- anese movement in San Francisco has not yet appeared on the surface. The press is remarkably silent so far. Men in high circles who are we'll informed on the present situa- tion express themselves as being ap- prehensive that the unrestrained sway of indignation over the dis elimination against Japanese in America might fall into the hands of a third power which is always aiming to arrest Japan's progress. While advocating firm measures to remove the cause of grievances of compa- triots victimized in the anti-Japan- ese movement, prudent handling of the situation is recommended lest Japan be placed in the position of picking chestnuts out of the fire for third party. Who this third power is may not be difficult to guess, but in the course of conversation on the question the name is carefully avoided.

Association's Statement.

San Francisco, July 3.-The Japan csc association of America has issued the following statement:
 Five of the principal chambers of commerce in Japan recently address ed a communication to chambers of commerce in America setting forth the grievances of Japanese residents in San Francisco and including among such grievances the denial of the right of education.
 The Japanese association of Am erica. which has it's headquarters in San Francisco believes that in jus tice to the people of California and the whole country, the erroneous statement should be corrected, and false impressions removed. Japan csc children in San Francisco are not denied the right of education. On the other hand there are as many Japanese scholars in the public schools as there were before the earthquake and fire of April 1S,1906, and they are receiving the same treatment and the same advantages that are given to the pupils of other nationalities and are admitted to the same schools.
 Tn making this correction the Japanese association of America wishes to show its desire for fairness and it hopes that its efforts to bring about friendly relations between the Japanese and the people of San Francisco and the state of California will have the sympathy and support of the merchants and business men of the state"

HELD AS HOSTAGE
Bandit Chief Will Not Give Up Mclean Until Terms of Par.
 don Are Arranged.

Tangier, July 3.-Kaid General Si, Harry MacLean, commander of the sultan's bodyguard, has been made prisoner by Rajsuli, the bandit chief, and will be held as hostage by the latter until the sultan agrees to par don Raisuli on his own terms.
 General MasLean was negotiat- ing with Rasuli regarding the lat ter's pardon when he was made pris- oner.
 General MacLean is former officer of the British army, having served in the 69th regiment of infantry, and is descended from an old Scotch family. All his influence with the sultan has been exercised in the interests of civ ilization and humanity and he is uni- yersally respected even among the most fanatical of the foreigner hating Moors.
 The latest exploit of Raisui in capturing Caid General Sir Harry MacLean brings the noted bandi to public attention after a period of comparative retirement. MacLesn is probably the most influential man in Morocco, being English adviser, wfo organized the sultan's army and civil administration, and who stands next to the sultan himself in the practical conduct of Moroccan af. fairs. His capture, therefore, is evea more of an achievement for Raistu than his former captures of Perdi- caris and Harris, the latter the Lon don Times correspondent. Morocco advices are often misleading, owing to the inaccessibility of the noun tain marauders and the many reports of their operations. But if Raisuli's capture of MacLean proves correct. the bandit has an unusually rich prize with which to negotiate with the sultan and possibly with Eng land, to wfom MacLeah still holds ale glance, and with France and Spain. who are jointly charged with the international policing of Moroc- co.

 Besides having every facility for investigation of the subject at the trial" he said, II also visited the penitentiary and made psychologist al examination of Orchard lasting 8 hours, but it is impossible to sketch the results of this test in any popu- lar way without giving also the tech nical data upon which my conclu- sions rest"

MISSING TELLER
Detectives Are Looking For Pay. ing Teller Runyaa Who Went
 Away With s9e.317
DIRECTORS MAKE GOOD

New York. July 3.-Detectives throughout the United States are searching to-day for Chester B. Run van, paying teller of the Windsor Trust Co, who, the directors allege, is missing with s96,317 in cash. The case is being handled by private de- tectives. George w. Young, direc- tor of the trust company, confirms the reports of the dedication, which the detectives say is one of the most remarkable ever reported.
 Runyan is accused of having placed $96,317 in currency in suit case last Saturday and, after shak- ing hands with his banking asso- ciates, left the trust company. Since then he has not been seen. Runyan, 1t is said, did not even go to his apartment to bid goodbye to his wife, to whom he had been married for five years. Runyan is said to have taken all the cash available in the bank last Saturday. The direc- tors, 1t is stated, have made up all the loss of the dedication.
 Runyan was a man of exemplary habits so far as known and his con duct was such as not to arouse any suspicion. When the auditors went over his accounts on May 1 they were found to be all right. John A. Young, president of the Windsor Trust Go, said to-day that he was of the impression that Ches- ter B. Runyan is member of a prominent Rochester, N. Y., family. He formerly worked in bank at Rochester, and came to the Wind sor Trust Go in 1905 highly recom- mended.

Cross-Examining Engley.

Boise, Idaho, July 3.--The cross examination of General Eugene Engley, formerly encouragement of the state of Colorado, under Gov ernor Waite, was continued to-day, the state having a few questions to ask the witness when the Haywood trial opens. The defense continues to center its efforts on the condi- tions existing in Colorado at the time of the Cripple Creek strike. for the purpose of showing that there was no need for the calling out of the militia, and that the Western Fed eration of Miners, which up to that time had conducted peaceful cam paign against the mine owners, was made responsible for number of outrages by the militia and the gun men" employed by the mine owners and the city alliance.
 General Engley has testified that the citizens alliance was made up of the leading citizens of Cripple Creek and that the mine owners con sututed very small part of the com munity. He is an avowed socialist of pronounced type. His evidence so far has been interesting as a frank avowal of interest in the doc trines of socialism and the Western Federation of Miners as an actual sympathizer, and because he was em- ployed as counsel in number of cases for the federation. "E
 With an adjournment over the Fourth it is not considered likely the defense will be able to conclude the evidence before Friday evening. It is now probable that they will not be in a position to call Mover to the stand before next Saturday evening. Mover will be followed by Haywood who will close the case for the de fense. r..-
