MEN
HOLD UP WOMAN
GETTING NO MONEY THEY TEAP
DIAMOND RINGS FROM FIN
GERS.

SAN FRANCISCO, November 16.-
Two men, wearing white masks, con-
fronted Mrs. Elmer Rocker at Ninth
avenue and Clement street last night
and commanded her to make no out
cry on pain of bodily harm.
Mrs. Rocker was on her way home
at 416 Ninth avenue, and asked the
men not to modest her, saying she had
no money.
wen see about that" replied one
of the men, Selling her by the wrist,
while the other highwayman searched
her clothing.
Finding no money the men tore from
Mrs. Rockers fingers two diamond
rings and, after cautioning her to re-
main quiet, hurried away.
Mr.. Rocker, who is said to be an eX-
policeman, notified the Park Police
Station of the robbery, but the police
have no clew to the robbers.
W. j. Barker, formerly proprietor Of
the Paso Robes Springs and now a
resident of this city, living at the
Kenilworth Apartments at Bush and
Powell streets, reported last night to
the police that he had put to rout
two masked robbers who accosted him
and attempted to relieve him of his
money at the point of a revolver.
According to the story told by Bar
ker he was leaving the St. Francis
Hotel, where he had been chatting
with some friends last night shortly
after 10 o'clock, and had alcost reach
ed his apartments when he was con-
fronted by two men wearing white
masks, who roughly commanded him
to hold up his hands. Barker, how
ever, did not obey the order, but yell
ed "Police!" whereat both of the men
took their heels, with Barker close in
pursuit. They ran down Bush street
to Stockton, where they succeeded in
eluding their intended victim.

NO FRICTION
WITH JAPANESE
GOVERNMENT DENIES REPORT
OF DIFFERENCES WITH THE
BROWN MEN.

WASHINGTON, November 15.-The
attention of the administration was
again directed to the publications in
dicating it to be the purpose of the
United States Government to force
Japans hand with a view to secur-
ing assurances regarding her inten-
lions toward Manchuria.. Denial was
made both at the White House and
at the State Department that there
was any friction with Japan or that
such a request or demand had been
made. AS a matter of fact, all that
has been done was to make an effort
to secure a more definite statement
from Japan touching her position in
Manchuria, she having given more
definite assurances to the other coun-
tries having interests in Asia than to
the United States. The White House
statement follows:
"The statement that there has been
any friction between the State Depart
ment and the Japanese Government Is
entirely erroneous. On the contrary,
the relations between the two govern
ments have constantly been growing
closer and the understanding better.
The statement as to there being any
friction is not merely unwarranted,
but the direct reverse of the facts"

TO HAVE RIGID
CURFEW LAW
CHICAGO'S PLAN TO PROTECT THE
CHILDREN FROM WHITE SLAv-
ERS.

CHICAGO, November 15.-Chicago
proposes to test the value of a cur
few law on a large scale. With white
slavers" lying in wait at every corn
er and young girls and boys disap-
pearing almost daily, the police and
all genuine reform elements are in
favor of trying the plan of driving all
children under IA years to their homes
at 8 o'clock in winter and 10 o'clock
in summer.
The Juvenile Protective League is
the principal hacker of the plan. 1t is
proposed to clear the streets of all
children except those bearing written
permission of the parents and engaged
in some necessary errand. 1t has been
shown that the law can be enforced
here, for the settlement back of the
stock yards, which fairly riots in chill
dren, has enforced a curfew law for
more than a year with remarkable re-
suits.
The police say a curfew law, rigidly
enforced, is the only salvation of the
children.

TOPEKA, Aug. N.-Before an au-

guaranty of bank deposits. Previous
ly he had delivered three others, two
from the Veranda Hotel and4he third
at Garfield Park where he attended a
picnic of the Knights of Pythias,
where he spoke on Fraternity"
Due to the action of the Kansas
republican state convention which en-
dorsed the guaranty Of deposits pro-
position, Bryan made some remark
able supplementary to his prepared
speech on that subject. He took up
the criticism of Taft and others and
asked why the depositors should be
left unsecured when the national gov
ernment demanded security Of any
bank with which it deposited its
money. He pointed out that choice
was between the Postal Savings Bank
and the Guaranty Bank and accused
Taft of favoring unnecessary exten-
sion Of the sphere Of government in
advocating the postal savings instead
Of the guaranty bank. Bryan declar-
ed the guaranty bank proposition
which would allow the banks to at
tend to the banking business and yet
compel them to give depositors neces-
sary security Bryan said that three
fourths of the bankers of Kansas fa-
ored the guaranty plan and one
