lUkENS is WITNESS.
Subjectes to Severe Examination ir
Glass Bribery Trial.

San Francisco, Aug. 29.-state Sem
ator Russell Lukens was witness yes
terday in the trial Of Louis Glass for
bribery and was subjected by Assistant
District Attorney Heney to an examin-
alton which could not have been more
severe had he been placed on the stand
by the other side.
Senator Lukens was preceded in the
witness chair by Benjamin A. Pendle-
ton and Eugene 4. Thurston, Jr., who
were members of the city council OF
Oakland in the fall of 1905 when the
Home Telephone company was seeking
a rival franchise in that city against
the efforts of the Pacific States COM
pany to maintain its monopoly.
Mr.. Pendleton and Mr.. Thurston tes-
titled to hosptalities extended to them
by Agent Halsey, of,the old company,
and by Lukens, who was in its employ
ment as a lawyer, but no testimony
was forthcoming of any improper offers
being made to them. The prosecution
will conclude today.

ITO'S REFORM PLAN.
Would Get Greater Revenue From
Corea Out of Land.

Toxic, Aug. 29.-An important state
council which was to have been held
today has been postponed until Friday,
owing to the fact that some of the min
listers and elder statesmen from out of
town have been detained on account Of
the recent food and consequent damages
to the railways. The council has been
specially called to consider Marquis
Ito's plan of Corean policy, necessitated
by the new relations esta blished by the
last convention between Corea and
Japan.
The details of Marquis Ito's plans are
unknown, but the fundamental points
are believed to consist in effecting a
thorough reform in the land system,
which is now in a chaotic condition,
and also the esta ablishing of new sys-
tenn of judiciary and police on the jap
anese plan. These measures will
naturally be considerable of drain on
the Japanese treasury. 1t is thought
that Marquis Ito plans to ask an extra
annual outlay of little over 100000
yen for period of five years.

EVIDENCE PILES UP.
San Francisco Supervisors Bribed by
Telephone Company.

San Francisco, Aug. 28.-Secretary
Treasurer F. w. Eaton, of the Pacific
States Telephone & Telegraph company,
was called to the stand yesterday by
the prosecution in the case of the g lass
bribery trial. He testified again to the
drawing by him of about $50, 900
worth OF checks in February of 1905 for
which no vouchers were turned in. He
did not know who ordered the checks
drawn or who signed them. The re-
cords thereof we're destroyed in the fire.
Cashier William j. Kennedy was
called. He testified to the drawing Of
$40, 900 and $1,000 checks in February,
and told of the subsequent return to
the company Of $1,000 or $1,000 in
ferentially comprising the bribe mon
eys returned by several supervisors on
demand Of Halsey. after the granting
of the Home Telephone company's fran
chise application, according to the
claim Of the prosecution.
Mr.. Heney introduced memoranda
from five local banks showing the with
drawal of approximately $4,000 in
February, corresponding to the total
amount alleged to have been paid to
the supervisors at that time. Thomas
E. Sherwin, formerly travelling auditor
Of the telephone company, testified to a
similar 100000 entry on the books of
the corporation, which he was auditing
when they were destroyed in the fire.

JUDGES FOR HAGUE COURT.
United States Proposes the Allotment
Among Nations.

The Hague, Aug. 28.-The United
States delegation announces its willing
ness for all countries on the American
continent, including the United States,
to have four judges of the new interna.
tional court appointed for the 2l coun-
tries Of this continent, on the under
standing that this reduces the number
of Judge. to Is. 1t is understood that
the Americans hope Asia will be allot-
ted two judges and Eurone nine.
The examining committee has COM
pleted the first reading of the revised
version Of the American permanent tri-
bunal proposition. Mr.. Choate ex-
planned some doubtful jurisdictional
points. The Mexican delegation an
nounced that it opposed the court be-
cause it is impossible to secure equality
for all countries in the appointment of
judges.
Ruy Barboso, of Brazil, made long
speech in which he protested against
the appointment OF judges as projected
in the American proposition. He in
sisted that this question must be settled
in manner which fully recognized the
equality of the powers. The meeting
was then adjourned until September 2.

TRIALS CAN GO ON.
Officials Know No Reason tor Della,
in Oregon Gases.

Washington, Aug. 29.--So far as Off
cial Washington is aware, there is no
known reason wny the Oregon land
fraud trials should not be Immediately
resumed. nor is there any known reason
why they cannot be concluded before
December l.. 1t is the expectation OF
the officials here that District Attorney
Bristol will soon begin the prosecution.
The Hermann case will wait until +.
J. Heney can drop his graft work at
sangFrancisco, for it was he who work
ed up this case and it is his desire to
conduct the prosecution in person. All
others, it is believed, will be conducted
by Mr.. Bristol. There has been some
delay, because Mr.. Heney had in his
possession some facts and evidence re-
quired by the government prosecutor,
but Mr.. Heney some time since prom
ised to forward this matter to Mr.. Brie-
toni, and it is presumed all necessary
data is now in the hands of the district
attorney.
Both the Department of Justice and
the Interior department are anxious
that all pending land casea in Oregon
shall be cleared up without further de-
lay.
