ONE MAN LIKELY TO DIE
Vancouver Firemen in Uniform
Badly Cut Up by laps.

Vancouver, B. c., Jan. 2.-Three
city firemen, Frost, Anderson and
Macdonald, were set upon by a mob
of armed Japanese at the corner of
Powell street and Gore avenue two
blocks from the police station and in
the center of the Japanese district.
The men were clothed in uniforms
with brass buttons and the attack of
the Japanese is all the more serious
for that reason.
BY accident a fireman named Frost
fell against the window of a japanese
store and smashed the plate glass. In
an instant the Japanese proprietor
rushed out and many of his country
men came to join the fight. The fire.
men were overpowered after a fight,
when their flesh had been torn into
ribbons by the razorlike knives of the
OrientalS.
Frost was mortally hurt, his neck
was cut, slashed and laid open along
side the jugular vein. The other two
firemen were frightfully cut about the
arms and breasts, but were still fight
ing over the body of Frost when a
squad of police arrived. Four Japa-
nese were arrested and the three fire.
men were taken to the hospital.
The Japanese fought like demons
and the knives used were a foot long.

Berlin, Jan. 4.-The notorious Har-

end when the accused editor of Die
Zukunft was sentenced to four
months Imprisonment and to pay the
entire costs of both the present and
the former trial.
There was no doubt, the president
of the court declared, that Harden had
meant to imply that Count Kuno Won
Moltke was possessed of unnatural in
clinations, while his reference to the
intercourse between Count o Moltke
and Prince zu Gutenberg certainly lest
the impression that illicit relations
existed. The intention of the prison
er was to degrade Count Won Moltke
and Prince Zu Gutenberg in the eyes
of the public.

Parts of the State.
0'BRIEN MADE CONFESSION
heche Youth Finally Admitted That
He Was the Slayer of Arthur
lie Claire.

James O'Brien of Neche has made
q complete confession of the murder
Of Arthur LIE Claire, tNe Great North
ern fireman. The sixt ~ear-old STAY
ar gave up the details lis crime to
]. G. Crawford, a Pinke:ton detective,
who has been working on the case.
The confession came after he had been
confronted with his bloody clothing,
Ratchet with which the crime was
committed, a bloody scarf and other
evidence Of his guilt.
At the inquest at Neche, O'Brien re-
peated his confession almost word for
Word as written by him at Pembina.
The verdict of the jury with that LIE
Claire came TO his death by blows
from q Ratchet in the hands Of Young
o'prien.
But O'Brien did pot tell the truth
IN his confession. He claimed that he
and LIE Claire q%uarrelled over which
vas the better fighter and LIE Claire
threw him and he thereupon hit lie
Claire with a Ratchet, took his VIC
thm's pocketbook and threw both lie
Claire and the pocketbook into the
Pembina river. After the inquest
o'Brien told the detective if he would
allow him to go he would show where
the money vas hidden. He went to
his fathers barn, and on q beam in
the loft took the money from beneath
a handful of Irvine. There were six
sb bills and four $40 bills. This, he
said, was all he had taken from the
body of LIE Claire. He had burned the
pocketbook.
1nasmuch as O'Brien lied to this ex-
tent. his entire confession, except the
admission of murder, is believed to be
a clever falsehood. No one believes
he had a quarrel with LIE Claire. Cold
blooded murder, with robbery as the
motive, seems clear.
O'Brien will probably receive his
sentence at a session of the district
court to be held this month. It is un-
derstoed he will enter a plea Of guilty
with a petition for a life sentence in
stead Of hanging.
Following the inquest O'Tsri.n was
taken back to the Pembina Jail by
Sheriff Roadhouse, after going home
to bid his family good-by.
