JAPAN'S REFUSAL
TO Hatify the New Treaty With the
United States

10 Ratify the New Treaty With the
United States.
1t mas been learned officially that
Japan will not renew the present
treaty with this government on ac-
count of the clause which bars Jan
cool1e labor from the United States.
Inc Washington Post gives the Off
cial confidential memorandum of For
elgn Minister Hayashi outlining The
attitude of Japan. It is to the effect I
that the government of the United
States has submitted proposal for
the enactment Of treaty which pro-
Vldes for the Limitation of immigration
The government Of japan has rejected
the proposal and will not in the future
entertain any such proposition. l.
further says that in the new treaty
which is to be operated from the forty
fourth year of Meiji Q91D, the go7 rn-
ment of japan insist on striking out
article 2, clause 1. defining the power
reserved by the contracting parties TO
enact laws with regard to police and
immigration regulations). For that
purpose the government of Japan shaI:
take more vigorous attitude. AL
though the negotiations for that end
have not yet developed, we firmly be-
1ieve that the government of the
United States will fight with determi-
nation TO preserve the clause. AMI
still further, "that the government Of
Japan contemplates sendirs rspresen-
tatives to the United States TO investi-
gate conditions ON Pacific coast and

Richmond, Va, July 10.-Judge J.
C. Pritchard, of the United States
court of appeals, in an opinion handed
down today. continued the restraining g
order preventing the uniform 2 cent
passenger rates as adopted by the
states corporation commission from
going into effect.
The question is simply one OF the
jurisdiction of the corporation conf
mission to fix the rate governing the
operations of railroad in Virginia
and the opinion was handed down as
result of an argument before Judge
Pritchard in Asheville recently. The
case will now be fought ON its merits
and it is understood no matter how the
United States circuit court of appeals
may decide the case. 1t will finally be
fought out in the United States su
preme court. The Southern railway
furnished bond in the sum of S200.00j
it being stated by an attorney for that
company that the diminutiOn in re-
ceipts as a result of the decreased
rate would be $135 600 The Norfolk
and Western Railway Company far
nished bond in the sum of s275,003. ,
The bonds were required for the pro-
lection of the public in the event that
the United States supreme court fin
ally upholds the srate corporation
commission in adopting the twO-cent
rate. The railroads in question are
now giving rebate coupons with all
tickets sold at more than two cents

BUILDING COLLAPSED
Three Men Killed. One Fatally Hurt
and Eighteen Others Injured.

Philadelphia, July 9.-Three men are
known to have been killed. one fatal
r. hurt and eighteen others are in
jured in the collapse of a new con-
crete building today at the plant of
the Bridgman Brothers Company, man
ufacturers of steam filters supplies at
Fifteenth street and Washington Ave
About thirty workmen were carried
down in the debris. -
The body of Marshall Hopkins, and
the bodies of two unidentified colored
men have been taken from the ruins.
1t is believed that there are others
buried under the heavy mass of con-
crete, as the police and contractors
have not been able to locate two Ital-
ians and three colOred laborers who
were on the building when the acci-
dent occurred.
The building which was being erect
ed as an annex to the Bridgman plant
collapsed, according to the admission
of c.. B. Miller, boss carpenter, be-
cause the shortings were taken away
from the concrete before ii was prop
erly set. A. S. Reavis, trading as the
Metal and Ore Co., Of Washington,
was the contractors for zhe building.
The structure was four. stories high
and the heavy concrete dashed down
like an avalanche
But for a dispute between bricklay-
ers, helpers and the contractors as to
wages the former We're to receive for
hosting brick to the top of the build
ing after working hours, an additional
number of workmen would have been
on the building when the section col
laDsed.

FOR MURDER IN FIRST DEGREE
Grand Jury Returns True Bill Against
DIR. and Mrs. Rowland.
(By Associated Press)

Raleigh, n c., July 10.-A true bill
for murder was rendered by the grand
jury for Wake county late this after
noon against DR.. D. S. Rowland and
wife who have been in Jail charged
with the murder by poison of Engineer
Charles r. Strange, of the Seaboard
Air Line Railway.
The death Of Strange occurred last
March, and in six weeks his widow
married DR.. Rowland. Both are now
to be tried for the murder of Strange,
who died in half hour after the first
hisit of DR.. Rowland to him. Evi-
dence at the coroner's inquest show
ed previous intimacy between Row
land and the woman and no trace Of
poison was found in Strange's stom-
ach.
Rowland had few days before been
released after the arrest for the mur-
der of his son, no poison having been
found in the boys stomach
The evidence in the present case is
purely circumstantial.
Raleigh, N. c., July 5.-This after
noon at 5 o'clock after devoting the
entire day to examining witnesses the
grand jury in the superior court en-
tered the court room and announced
to Judge Long that it returned a true
bill against DR.. and Mrs. Rowland
for murder in the first de-
cree in poisoning Mrs. Rowland's for
mer husband, Seaborad Air Line En-
gineer Charles r. Strange, formerly of
Indiana, at Raleigh last April. There
is a growing belief that they will not
be tried at this term.

DR.. Charles r. Aked, the newly inn
ported New York pastor. and Luther
Burbank. the plant expert, have both
sounded warnings within the week
against dangers which threaten the fu-
ture Of the American people. DIT. Aked,
fresh from Europe, devoted his first
sermon to discussing the immigration
question az presenting a problem for
solution BY the American people. He
spoke polntedly Of the menace to the
nations future which is a part Of the
cargo Of each immigrant-laden vessel
arriving at our ports. 1T is a ques-
ton" said DIT. Aked, whether the
primal American stock is vitiated by
the intsrpermeation of an inferior
race" and he urged great caution in
the admission Of immigrants and In
their education and instruction after
their admission.
Prof. Burbank sees similar danger.

other nation in the history of the world
and here we meet the same results that
are always seen in a much crossed race
Of plants. all the worst as we'll as all
the best qualities of each are brought
out in their fullest intensities." Prof.
Burbank would have plant cultivation
methods adpoted in population rearing,
crossing and development, combining
by gradual process the dollhouse speci-
mems with the hardy outdoor wild
plants, to the final production Of per
feet species. Some such method, he
insists, is essential to the saving of
Americans Of the future from the evil
influences that come over with the i'm
migrants from inferior European
countries.
Both DR.. Aked and Prof. Burbank
are worrying themselves needlessly
about the dangers that threaten the
primal American stock" The Inter

going on since the days, now being
celebrated at jamestown, when the
Anglo-ssEon landed in Virginia for

OPTIMISM OF THE aouLpS.


George Gould and his associates in
the railroad business have refused to
share any Of the gloomy forebodings
of other railway fnanciers as to the
outlook for either the immediate or
remote future of the transportation in
terests In this country. The one great
problem which confronts all Of the rail-
roads," says Mr.. Gould, lis to furnish
facilities to handle the business of the
country, which is growing at an un-
precGdeuted rate and is already taxing
the facilities of transportation com
panies beyond their limit. l have no
fears for the future. The country was
never 30 prosperous nor the outlook so
bright as at the present time" Mr..
Gould adds an endorsement of Presi-
dent Roosevelt's railway policy and ex-
presses a belief that good would result
from the adoption OF some system of
tudicious government supervision over
issues of railway securities.
Moreover, stuyvesant Fish, recently
elected a member OF the board of d.
rectors Of the Gould system of rail-
roads, furnishes evidence in an inter
view that the Gould optimism is to
take the form Of deeds. rather than
words. He explains that Mr.. Gould
proposes to commence the general re-
construction Of the railroads of his
entire system, intending to spend about
500. 900, 900 a year for this purpose,
the work TO extend over a period Of ten
years. This is no philanthropic move
on the part Of the Goulds. They simply
recognize that the country gridironed
by their rails has developed a trafic
far beyond the possibilities of existing
facilities and that improvements. must
be made to care properly for the bust
ness offered at profitable rates. The
determination of the Goulds to spend
a vast sum of money in improving their
roads is proof that they see no posi-
billty Of a serious halt In the progress
Of prosperity.
