ing Prisoner Behind.

New Orleans, La, April 15.--While
a score OF white men were taking A
negro, charged with assaulting a
white woman, from the Jail at Bunkie,
Louisiana, last night with the inten-
ton of lynching him, they were fired
on by a crowd of negroes who were
hidden near the jail One white man
was dangerously hurt and two others
wounded. The mob fled. After the
shooting the negroes got away, car
rying the prisoner with them. A
posse is now in search of the negroes.
Mob Shot Own Members.
A later dispatch from Bunkie, Louis
lana, denies that the mob OF whites
was fred upon. 1t is now the general
belief that when the negro prisoner
got away from the would-be lynchers
the members of the lynching party
wounded each other in shooting at the
fleeing negro.

will be kept in the courts as long as
possible.
Wants Another Trial.
Within few days Judge .Landis will
be asked to fix time to hear argu-
ments on motion for new trial. II
this motion is overruled the defense
will present motion in arrest of judg-
ment. The argument of the defense
will be that in accepting six-cent
rate the Standard Oil Company com.
mitted only one violation of the Elk
ins act and that the contention of the
government that each car of oil ship.
ped constituted an additional offense
is not good law.
Small Fine Ridiculous.
To this the government will reply
that as only one offense can be pun
ished by no more than $4,000 fine
and that the amount derived by the
Standard Oil Company in the counts
charged in the indictment was $223,.
900, that such fine is by no means
commensurate with the crime
viii Appeal to Supreme Court.
Should Judge Lands sustain the ac-
tion In arrest Of judgment, the defend
ant company would undoubtedly pay
the fine. If the motion is denied the case
will be appealed to either the United
States Court Of Appeals or to the
United States Supreme Court.

BY Associated Press
MUSKOGEE, 1. r, July 1S.-An at
tempt by Henry Asp, railroad attor-
ney of Guthrie, to address the Repub-
lican county convention here today con-
verted the meeting into a bowling,
fighting mob.
Pistols were brandished, knives
flashed and chairs were welded right
and left, resulting in bruises and minor
injuries to several persons.
Officers with drawn pistols who
threatened to shoot into the crowd if
the fighting did not stop failed to quell
the disturbance.
United States Deputy Marshal Bud
Ledbetter appeared on theS enc and
practically took charge of the IN ting.
Ledbetter, who is a Democrat, saved
Asp from being mobbed, and prevented
bloodshed.
Asp, pale and trembling, was taken
away from the meeting.
The trouble started when the anti
FrantZ and anti-statehood forces, of
which Asp is member, attempted to
address the meeting before the organ
ization was perfected.
The Frantz forces were victorious in
the test vote for a temporary chairman
and the other element then subsidized
and quiet was restored.

REVENUE CUTTER TAKES
TWO JAPANESE SEALERS
Both Vessels Fully Equipped and Show
Evidence of Having Piled Their
Trade in American
Water

BY Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, July 1S.-The state de-
partment has been informed that the reve-
nue. cutter Manning upon July seized
two Japanese fishing schooners, the Nitto
Maru and the Kaimo, near the boat land
ing within about mile of Seal Island of
st. Paul.
Both vessels were fully equipped for
sealing and there was evidence that they
had been plying their craft in the shape of
fresh sealsltins in small boats.
The seized vessels were taken to Una
laska and left in charge of the United
States marshal.
The crews were taken aboard the Man
ming and conveyed to Ungi, in charge of a
United States marshal, where they will be
tried before a United States commissioner
upon the charge of violating the sealing
regulations.
The Japanese government has been no.
titled by the state department, but as the
case appears to be an ordinary one Of
poaching, it is not expected that any dip
lomatic incidents will result.

PEACE CONFERENCE HAS
MOST IMPORTANT SITTING
Joseph Choate Makes Eloquent Plea
for General Convention for Settle
ment of Disputed Arbitra-
ton Questions

BY Associated Press.
THE HAGUE, July 1S-rhe sitting of
the peace conference today has been one
of the most important held for interest
in the questions discussed, as well as
for the powerful speeches delivered by
Joseph II. Choate of the United States,
NJ Drago of the Argentine Republic and
Perez Triana of Colombia, while in adj
dition Spain made a declaration which
attracted much attention as revealing the
desire of the Spanish government to as
sumo a kind of moral tutelage over the
Latin-American countries.
Spain's declaration says that that coun-
try adheres to the principles of modera-
ton, which inspired the American prop
osition, limiting forces for the collection
of public debts, these being the principles
that the government and the king have
followed and will always follow.
In concluding his address Joseph Choate
made an eloquent appeal to the nations
to enter into a general convention which
ought to be entirely distinct and indie
pendent for the settlement of disputed
questions arising by arbitration.
The committee dealing with the bonn
bardment of undefended towns and viii
lagos today approved the Italian propo-
sition forbiddng such acts. Upon leaving
the sitting Brigadier General George B.
Davis, one of the American delegates.
remarked ironically:
"Since the time of julius Caesar no ex-
ample exists of an undefended town being
bombarded, but the conference took three
weeks to realize it,"

STATE FAILS TO
COLLECT ALL TAXES
LOS ANGELES COUNTY OVER
$4,000 BEHIND
DeIinquents Must Pay Up Some Time
and with Heavy Penalties
Added for Their
Neglect


BY Associated Press.
SACRAMENTO, July ia full sum-
mary of the delinquent taxes of the state
for the fiscal year 19O6-O7 has been re-
celved by Controller Nye and it appears
the state government has fallen short of
collecting the full revenue due it by just
$167, S22O5.
In speaking about the deficiency Con-
troller Nye said:
"Of course this whole amount is not
lost, because the greater part of 1t will
ultimately be paid with accumulated in
terest; in tact, the state and counties
suffer little or nothing by nonpayment
of taxes at the proper time, while tax
payers suffer heavily for their forget
ness or delay, because if they wish to
retain their property they must pay up
not only the taxes, but delinquent penal
ties, interest charges and costs.
Small in 1905
''In the year 19O5-06, the total delinquent
roll on state taxes for Sacramento county
amounted to only s47S.S9 while for 1906-O7
it is $2277.S6,
LAS compared with this, San Joaquin
has delinquency of $Oov.U6, and Yolo one
of $3726 81. Butte county's delinquency is
s7OS 70 and Colusas is $52S.76. The smallest
delinquency of all is that of Suffer
county, which amounts to only s26.77.
Gwen little Alpha county which has a
mere handful of taxpayers, reports
delinquency of $6.52.
1.-The big delinquencies are found, as
might be expected, in the three great
countes-San Francisco, Los Angeles and
Alameda. They make the following show
ing for the fiscal year:
"San Francisco, $4SS50.41; Los Angeles,
s3S, 1853 46; Alameda, $14,721 %. With these
three exceptions there is no county which
reaches the $4,000 mark, although Santa
Clara comes near it with $29S6.45, Fresno
with $2S9S77 and San Diego with $2S4770."

ARGUE ON
EVIDENCE
QUESTION OF ADMlSSIBILlTY is
CONSIDERED
"
HAYWOOD JURY NOT BROUGHT
INTO ROOM
Judge Wood Will Announce Decision
Today on Admitting Testimony
Tending to Show Con-
spiracy


By Associated Press.
BOISE, Idaho, July 1S.-A day of argu-
ment on the admissibility of points of ev-
idence followed the announcement from
the defense that they had no further wit
nesses to offer in behalf of William d.
Haywood,
The jury was not brought into court,
Judge Wood having been informed by
counsel of their decision to rest without
offer of sur-rebuttal.
Clarence barrow spoke for an hour and
a half of the morning session.
Senator Borah replied in the afternoon
and was followed by E. f. Richardson.
Judge Wood will probably announce
his decision tomorrow.
The point argued was the proposition to
exclude from consideration by the jury
the evidence offered by the defense to
show, by proof of deportation of miners
from the employment of detectives in the
Cripple Creek district of Colorado that a
conspiracy was formed among the mine
owners and the citizens of the district
to prevent the employment of members
of the Western Federation of Miners.
Position of Defense
The position taken by the Haywood de-
Tense was that Harry Orchard was en-
ployed by the Mine Owners association
through detectives to commit crimes
which were then charged to the federation
to arouse the public against the union,
and 1t therefore followed that If the Col
orado evidence for the state was admit
ted the defense had the right to show a
counter conspiracy.
The reply of the state was that the
defense had failed legally to connect
their case in these particulars and there
fore their evidence merely confused the
issue.
In the absence of the jury the argument
gave counsel an opportunity to take a
wide range in commenting on the methods
employed on both sides.
Mr. barrow was impassioned and vitu-
perative.
Bitterly AssaiIs Orchard
He bitterly assailed Orchard and the
Pinkertons.
He maintained that Orchards story con-
