Hong Kong,


lBy Morning journal special Leased WIRE
Mexico city. Aug. 1.-The sequel Of
the dramatic story Of the cruise Of the
steamer Maori King was told at the
Chinese legation here today. Some
months ago the vessel left the Asiatic
coast carrying 935 Chinese and $50
Russians. Investigation has disclosed
the fact that the Chinese were kid
mapped. The men were employed near
Vladivostock on the Trans-Sibcrian
railroad. Three contractors induced
the mon 10 board the steamer on the
promise to take them To a place called
Mexico. which the contractors de-
clared was situated in China, near
Hong Kong. After the boat had been
out for thirteen days and no land had
been sighted. the Chinese became
alarmed and threatened to xiii one Of
the contractors who had remained on
board. The mans life was saved by
the CAPTAIN, who locked him in a
statcroom. Later. as has been pub
lished, a pitched battle was fought be-
tween the Chinese and Russians.
When the steamer put In at san
Diego, cal, twenty armed Americans

on the trip south To the port of Quay
amas. Mexico. Here the quarantine
laws prevented the ships landing, and
the men again became alarmed, fear
ing that they would never reach the
port of Mexico in China. They de-
fled the Officers, took possession of
the ships boats and were making for
the shore in hordes when assistance
was asked of the Mexican government
and a gunboat ana a lighthouse tender
turned them back. They are now
working on the sonora railway, and
are pleased with the outlook.

CARE OF THE SICK ROOM.
Above All Things the Walls Should
Be Kept Dry.

When the bedroom becomes sick
room there is an added reason why ex-
IRENE precautions should be used TO
keep the room in a thoroughly sanitary
condition.
Above all things. the bedroom should
never be damp. 1t should be nice and
dry, always warm and comfortable in
winter. cool and airy in summer, and
bright and sunny some parts of the
day.
If there is any suspicion of damp
ness in bedroom it is probably due,
if there is wallpaper on the wall. to
the absorption of water by the paper
which frequently acts as a blotting pa
per and holds quantities of water in it.
The use of wallpaper on walls is to
be deplored; it means disease, i'll
health and unhappiness. 1t is fire.
quently the cause of lung trouble, not
only because of its dampness but also
because of its power to retain infec-
ton of many kinds.
The desired method of treating a
bedroom wall is to tint it for the ala
bastined wall is a perfect wall 1t
never fakes off, chips or peels. 1t alb
sOrbs moisture and eXpels it, it opens
the pores of the plaster and makes a
room livable and breathable.
The floor in the bedroom should
have light, cleanable, dainty rugs that
can be easily shaken and a floor that
is thoroughly oiled or vanished, that
will not absorb moisture The cracks
in the floor should be thoroughly filled
and covered. Woodwork in the bed
room should be attended to carefully,
window sills should be thoroughly var
nished or waxed, and the window cas-
ings kept in perfect order. The doors
should be wiped off frequently as also
should be all the standing woodwork
in the bedroom, as the presence of
dust on woodwork is a menace to
health as we'll as an evidence of poor
housekeeping

THEY HAVE THE CASH.
Harri1,an-Hurst-Ro combina-
ton Plans to Defeat Presiden
RooSeVeIt's Policies.

Washington. 1t was said on au-
thority at the White house Thursday
that there is ample evidence at hand
for the claim the president holds that
there is a movement afoot to defeat
his policies in the next congress and
in the next national convention. 1t is
declared that the Reconsideration
Rockefeller combination" has already
a fund of s5,0O0,O00 with which to car
ry on it's campaign in opposition to
the president. 1t was further authort-
tatively said:
They are gathering up the loose
ends but the movement will flatten
out. 1t is apparent in Ohio and Pen
nsylvania; in fact it extends across
the entire continent. The scheme was
thoroughly divulged at recent din
ner and reached the White house
through a friend of the president. The
scheme of the people behind the move
ment is to buy newspapers, public
men and others who may assist the
opponents of the president in their
work"

DECIDE THAT THAW is SANE
Lunacy Commission Makes IMAM
imous Report to the Court. :
Declare Defendant Able to Under.
stand Proceedings Against Him
Jerome Dissatisfied.

New York.--Harry X. Thaw Thurs
nous report of the commission in lun-
acy appointed to inquire into his
mental condition. The moment the
decision was handed down from JUS
tice Fitzgerald's desk, District Attor-
ney Jerome was on his feet vigorous
ly protesting against its confirmation
by the court. He declared he had
been excluded from the last session
and demanded to be allowed to have
access to the minutes and stlnograph-
ic notes of what transpired at the
final mental and physical examina-
ton of the defendant.
When Justice Fitzgerald declined
to turn the minutes over to the dis
trict attorney Mr.. jerome declared
he would carry the case to the appel
late division of the supreme court,
asking that a writ of prohibition or
mandamus be granted to prevent a
continuance of the Thaw trial until
the higher court had ruled upon the
legality of the commissions course.
Justice Fitzgerald reminded Mr. Je-
rome that he had waived the statu-
tory right of attending the last ses-
sion of the commission by suggesting
himself that all the attorneys be ex-
cluded from the sitting in question.
He ha,; granted the district attorney
an adjournment until Monday morn
ing in order that he might have time
to prepare his application to the ap-
pellate division. Mr.. Jerome protest
ed that the time was not sufficient,
but Justice Fitzgerald cut him short
with the announcement that the trial
| must be concluded forthwith.
Unless Mr. Jerome should secure a
writ of prohibition in the meantime,
Justice Fitzgerald is expected to an.
nounce on Monday morning that he
has confirmed the report of the COM
mission and order that the trial pro-
coed without further delay. The dis
trict attorney and the counsel for the
| defense will be heard in argument as
to the confirmation of the report at
Mondays session if they so desire.

An Accommodating Court

Coffeyville, Kansas.-At Sedan, Fri
day, Otto D. Stallard, the defaulting
cashier of the Peoples Nation
al bank of that place, was granted
a continuance until the September
term Of court at which time he has
agreed to plead guilty and be SEN
fenced without trial. The reason
given for granting a continuance is
that Stallard wants to raise a crop
this summer on his home place. He
has decided over all his property to
the bank and has given a mortgage
on the home place to satisfy the short
age. His family is thus reduced to
want, and it was this feature of the
case that caused the court to grant
the continuance.
