Minute

Powered silk costume covered by e. long
automobile cloak, Mr.. WI, travelling

ing trip from South Bend, Ind, to

asked how fast we were going.
"Thirty miles an hour answered.
"'How fast will 1t go?' asked Mr..
WI.
Sixty miles an hour replied.

ENGLISHMAN ARRAIGNED
FOR SPREADING SEDITI0N
Japanese Resident Governor OF Seoul
Appears as Prosecutor Of British
Editor Of a Korean
Newspaper
EVAN LEWIS,

SEOUL, Korea, June 15.--Y. Miura,
the Japanese resident governor of
Seoul, appeared as the prosecutor of
e. 7. Bethel, British subject, who was
today arraigned In g. British court APP
pointed under order of the prtvy coun-
Gil.
Bethel is charged with spreading Sc
dition by the medium of a newspaper
published in the Korean vernacular,
and of which he is the proprietor
The court included Judge F. st.
Bourne and Prosecuting Attorney M.
Wilkinson, both of whom were special
ly sent from Shanghai by the British
government at the suggestion of AM
bassador Mcdonald at Toxic.
The prosecution said 1t woul1 prove
the publications in BethePs paper were
largely responsible for all the disturb
ances In Korea. M. Mirura asserted
the Korean government exists only
subject to the direction of Japan. He
further said that he believed that there
were 10000 troops now in Korea and
that half the country was disturbed.
Consequently the publications were
creating a false impression regarding
the real intentions of the Japanese gov
eminent, increasing the difficulties of
the government and causing much
bloodshed.
G. M Cross lawyer from Kobe,
who is defending Bethel, asked for a
jury trial, which Judge St. Bourne re-
fused. Cross commended that no Jap
anese control existed over Korea, that
the Korean emperor was supreme In
domestic affairs and that therefore
Governor Miura could not prosecute
Bethel.
The first day of the trial was taken
I'D with the opening statement of the
case.
The case is attracting much atten-
fion

bank, declares that Carlson is nothing
but q 'bluffer." When he was told
what Carlson had said about his ac-
tivity while in charge during Carlson's
absence, Mr.. Lewis said:
"This is the same old bluff. have
known Carlson for years and he moth
ing but q buffer 1 opened only such
mail as was reasonably believed to be
intended for the banks business and I
did 1t under the direction of the bank
commissioners. There was money
coming in by mail and I opened the
letters that were not marked personal
or that appeared to be intended for
the business of the bank by the super
scription.
ut is true I did say never expected
him to come back to Los Angeles.
never believed he would and his return
is evidence to me that he will take long
chances on bluff. If he knew as
much about the affairs of that bank
as do, or If knew as much about
them as he does. I would hurry to
Mexico and hang myself. But l do not
care to discuss that. We have kept
quiet and we shall do our talking in
the right place when the right time
comes.
JAS for me wanting to be receiver.
there is only this:
''Mr. Peck telephoned me Saturday
saying he was going to recommend my
appointment when receivershtp pro-
ceedings were begun by him. told
him I would have to consult the bank
commissioners. That is all there is to
that"
Today's Probabilities
That Mr.. Carlson is not likely to con-
fer with the bank commission today Is
likely from the fact that one of his
attorneys, Mr.. Mcclure, left for Tu-
lare county yesterday afternoon and Is
not expected home for several days.
He is trying case there. Mr.. Carl
son said yesterday that he had also
engaged former Governor Gage and
John H. Foley to aid In his counsels.
Carlson said he would be at the omice
of the realty company in the future
and would meet all who had business
with him.

EASTLAKE PARK VISITORS
FIND SUICIDES CORPSE
Body Still Warm When Discovered,
Bottle of CarboIlc Acid and
Whisky Bottle Lying
by It's Side

W. H. x. Smith, while strolling
through Eastlake park in the company
of two women about IL o'clock yester-
day morning. suddenly stumbled on
the dead body of a man. apparently
about 80 years old, lying among some
bushes near the water tank at Palm
avenue.
An investigation revealed an empty
carbolic acid bottle by his side and
an empty pint whisky flask. Circum-
stances pointed to suicide.
The man was well dressed. He was
about feet inches in height.
weighed about 165 pounds, had blue
eyes. one gold eye tooth and gold
trimmed front tooth. His suit was Of a
stylish texture, dark gray. and had
been purchased Of Mathewson & Ber-
ner, but the shoes had been bought In
Florida, from which place it is be-
lieved he came. A new black derby
hat lay beside him.
Every card, letter and laundry mark
had been carefully removed from his
clothing and destroyed. There was alb
solutely nothing by which his identity
could be revealed.
When found by Smith, who lives at
1909 Constance street, the body was still
warm. The man had been seen stroll
ing moodily through the park by John
Mcmahon, park employee, about 10
o'clock. so he must have swallowed
the fatal acid some time between 10
and IL o'clock yesterday morning.
The find was hurriedly reported to
the police, and after an investigation
of the premises the body was sent to
John r. Paups undertaking parlors.
where an inquest probably will be
held today.
Deceased had the appearance OF hav-
ing been refined and well connected.
He was rather handsome, had clear
cut features and was smoothly shaver.

HELM CONFESSED MURDER
Says One of the Accused Told Him He
Had Killed Hayes and His Wife
and Plotted Against
Others

STOCKTON, June 15-The prosecu-
ton sprung g. big sensation in the
Helm murder trial today when Dick
Kaloostian, an Armenian. who was g.
cellmate with William Helm for four
months testified after strenuous OBJ
jections by the defendants attorneys,
that Willie Helm, one of the accused,
had after his first conviction confessed
to him that he had shot Hayes and his
wife.
The witness further declared that
Helm had plotted to kill Judge Church,
District Attorney Church, Constable
Mason and whatever constable might
convey him to Stockton for the second
trial, a change of venue having been
secured.
Kaloostian was to procure gun with
which Helm was to carry out the plans
which, If successfully carried out, were
to be followed by the killing of a wit
ness who saw Helm with the shotgun,
all for revenge, and later the robbery of
the Fowler bank.
Helm exhibited knife and threat
ened Kaloostian with death If he
"peached" Kaloostian waited his op-
portunity and when Helm was Ill in his
cell managed to convey the story to the
officers.
Cross examination only strengthened
the story.
