ARGUMENT OF ATTORNEYS.
Judge Powers Eloquent in His De-
Tense of Accused Woman.

Washington, Dec. Both the de-
tense and the prosecution made their
closing arguments today before the
jury in the trial of Mrs Annie NJ Brad
ley, charged with the murder of former
Senator Brown of Utah, at a local hotel
last winter. Judge Powers of Salt
Lake. senior counsel. and Attorney
Hoover, for the defense, occupied the
morning session, District Attorney Ba-
ker following during the afternoon. His
argument was extended nearly two
hours, after which the court was pre-
pared to deliver the charge and hand
the case to the jury.
The defense laid special stress upon
the evidence regarding insanity and
contended that it was former Senator
Brown and not Mrs. Bradley who i'm
portuned for the Illicit relations; that
it was not case of breaking up of a
home but that with Mrs. Bradley it
was an attempt TO secure a name for
her children.

Mr.. HooVer's Argument.

The defendant as she came into court
today, wore a look of anxiety and was
paler than usual.
Mr.. Hoover, in opening his argument,
referring to the prisoners credibility
asked what would have been easier
than for her to say Brown had attacked
her and that she shot in self-defense.
He said that if through physical dis
ease of the mind the defendant was
unable to distinguish between right and
wrong, and lacking the will power in

CITY BURNED LIKE timber.


Victoria, b. O., Sept. 16.-The
steamer Hhawmutt, which arrived last
night from Manila via Japan and China
with cargo OF hemp, tea, silk and
general freight and 40 saloon passen-
gers, including many naval, military
and civic officers from the Philippines,
brought further news OF the great fire
at Hakodate.
1t seems the big conhagration origin
ated in a soap factory near the Higa-
shieawa school and spread with great
rapidity, sweeping away hundreds OF
bamboo houses. During the fire pow
der magazine at Kishomachie exploded,
involving much loss OF life. In all
800 lives were lost during the confa-
grafton and $4,000 homes burned, a
strong wind tanning the fire, which
spread with great rapidity.
All the foreign consulates, admins
trative Offices, banks, company Offices,
schools, theaters, etc.. were burned

consulate, courthouse, railway station
and the customs house.

immigration.

Vancouver, b. O., Sept. 17.--Thirty.
eight Thousand Japanese have beer
given permission by the government &c
come Immediately to British Columbia.
They will cross the Pacific as rapidly
as steamers can be secured to bring
them. The news that Vancouver will
see an immigration hitherto unprece-
dented was received today by the
steamer Woolwich, which brought $50
OF the brown men. The steamer In
diana Is overdue now from Honolulu
with 800. Best informed circles de-
clare that the Dominion government
will do nothing at all to prevent the
further influx of Japanese despite the
protest OF Vancouver.
The demand for labor is so great in
the interior OF British Columbia and
on the prairies of the Northwest that
as many Japs as wish to come will be
allowed. On the other hand, official
statements come from Ottawa that
Premier Laurier and Delegate Ishii will

Ottawa, Ont, Sept. 13.--Advices
from Vancouver state that the mayor OF
Vancouver has warned the captain of

board ia Japanese, 149 Chinese and

the publication of detailed account Of
the expenditures of the state from the
time of the assassination Of Governor
Steunenberg to the present.
The bill of the Pinkerton agency
amounting to $29, 900, shows that the
state paid the cigar bills and hundreds
of other incidental" expenses Of the
Pinkerton operatives. Bills for amounts
varying from less than 81 to 800 appear
for 'incidentals seeking information"
'incidentals to avoid suspicion, " and
treating expenses" At intervals Of
five days the state was charged with 50

Parland.
Frequently the item subscription to
the Western Federation defense fund
appears in the bills of the Pinkertons,
showing that the detectives employed
by the state regularly paid dues in the
Federation and were refunded by the
state.

Haywood and .Pettibone from Denver
on special train charged the state laf

ROOT OF EVIL NOT REACHED


BRUSSELS, Set. 17.--Dr. Henry |. Colt,
OF Newark, N. j., resident of the Amer.
lean association OF medical milk com.
mission, Is strongly opposed, In an adj.
dress today at the International Milk
congress, tosthe compulsory pasteur ga
tion OF milk as means OF effectively
Improving the supply of milk. DR..
Colt said that to employ pasteurization
az anything more than temporary ex-
pedient would be undesirable, because
II would remove the incentive to the
public to compel the producer to &C.
complish an improvement. Pasteur-
lied milk in bulk 10 not only intrin-
sically lees desirable than clean raw
milk, declared DIR. Colt, but Ii actually
unsafe unless IL is consumed within "a
hours and la kept at or below 10 de-
gress cantigrade--b0 degrees Fahren-
heit. Dr.. Colt also said:
TO resort to the compulsory pas
teurization OF the milk supply in large
cities as protection against tubercuIo-
sis instead OF taking more radical meas
ures for Its eradication from milk
herds, would be protecting only those
who live In the cities and would ex-
pose all who live In the rural districts.

saw W. lands, famous for having i'm.
posed the record fine on the Standard
Oil company, is causing considerable
uneasiness in the department of justice
because of his apparent determination
to prosecute the Alton railroad. The
determination of the Judge would moi
give concern, but for the fact that this
road was promised immunity by the
government if it would give up infor.
nation which would enable the govern.
ment TO convict the Standard Oil com.
pany. The Alton road fulflledKits part
OF the contract; its evidence accom-
plished all that the government sought,
and now the Alton is asking the goyarn.
ment to live up to its agreement and
overlook the sins of thearailroad, which
are contended to be of much less i'm
portance than the sins of the convicted
Standard Oil company.
The curious thing about the situation
is that Judge lands is not necessarily
bound by any immunity premise given
by the department OF Justice. He
knows that ex-Attorney General Moody
authorized the giving OF such PLEDGE
and ne knows that, if Mr.. Moody or the
present attorney general had full saw.
