 The suit of s. Heineman and W. R. O'Neal against the directors of the Bank of Newport, brought as a test suit by Senator James P. Clarke, to make the directors responsible for the losses of the depositors, has been terminated by Judge F. D. Fulkerson, who instructed the jury to return a verdict for the plaintiffs. The court held that the defense had failed to refute the evidence of the plaintiffs, showing that the directors had not exercised proper diligence and given proper attention to their duties as directors. The plea for the defense was that the dirtctors did not know of the ba ks insolvency when they continued to keep it open. If the judg ment of this court is sustained, the directors become liable for losses ex- ceeding $150,0O0.

GOVERNMENT RULE IN ALASKA.
Severely Criticised by Major General
Greedy In Chicago Address.

Chicago. ILL.,. May l2.-Rule OF the
United States governor in Alaska was
criticised severely last night by Ma.
jor General Adolphus w. Greedy, Com.
mander OF the Northern Division of
the United States Army, in an address
before the Geographic Society of Chi
cago.
Gen. Greedy has made several polar
expeditions. on one of which his par
ty established a record for "farthest
north" and all but seven OF the party
perished. Within the last few years
has explored parts OF Alaska.
The same trouble predominates in
Alaska today that has characterized
the attitude of the United States gov.
ernment toward all the aborigines
with which it has come in contact"
said Gen. Greely.
1.-TWO years ago the United States
courts were a fiasco. II was a wonder
to me that the entire lot OF Govern.
ment officials were not hanged by
mob law. | have been In mining
camps. where, as the old saying goes.
they hung five men before breakfast
for less provocation than was imposed
on the people OF Alaska. The courts
were only instruments of private in.
terests."

ing" episodes OF Alaska. described by
certain writer's, are exaggerations.

Turks Hesitate to Grant Concessions
to Orientals

to Orientals.
Constantinople. May l3.-The poul
parleurs by which Japan is seeking tc
establish diplomatic relations with
Turkey and the location OF a Japan
ese ambassador at Constantinople
have encountered a rather formidabl,
stumbling block. Japan wishes to be
treated on the same footing as the
great powers of Europe with respect
to the concessions by which Turkey
gives foreign powers certain supervis
ion over her internal affairs. includinu
schools. missions consular courts. etc
The porte is firmly opposed to conced
ing these privileges to Japan as all
the efforts OF Turkey within recent
years have aimed at the restriction
and ultimate abolition of these privi
leges TO foreign powers.
The efforts of Japan to establish
diplomatic relations with Turkey date
back to the period preceding the Rus
so-Japanese war and were renewed
later at Different intervals. In NoveL.
Der last fresh attempt was made
during the presence in Constantinople
OF two japanese staff officers who
were occupied in tour of studies In
Turkey. one of whom subsequently
proceeded to Bagdad These officers
were the bearers of large number OF
Japanese decorations for Turkish of
ficers. II Is stated in official circles
that the pour parleurs are still going
on, although reticence is observed re-
garding the place where the negotia
tions are being conducted.
II Is obvious that the presence OF
the diplomatic representative would
naturally serve TO strengthen the po
sition of the British ambassador ow
ing TO the Arglo-Japanese alliance
This probability might account for the
unfavorable attitude which has beer
limited at on the part of certain pow
ors.
II is believed that Prince Fushima
at present ON a visit to Europe, will
come to CoIstantinople and use hi:
personal influence to bring about 9
settlement.
