MORGAN ARRIVES
WITH JAP PANESE WIFE
Nephew of New York Financier
En- Route East With Former
Geisha Girl

George D. Morgan of Paris, who ar
rived here yesterday on the liner Man
churia, Is famous for two things. He
is nephew of ]. Pierpont Morgan and
is the husband of a Japanese wife.
This is the second time that Morgan
and his little brown pride have passed
through this city.
Mrs. Morgan, whose neck, wrists and
fingers sparkled yesterday with the
luster of many diamonds, was Miss
Oyuki of Kyoto and was serving her
apprenticeship as geisha girl when
Morgan acquired her. She is said to
have had a Japanese sweetheart at the
time Morgan laid siege to her heart,
and her parents did not take kindly to
Morgan's suit until he paid for the
privilege of marrying the girl price
so out of proportion with Japanese
ideas of the value of any woman that
the affair attracted national attention
Japanese playwrights made the mar
riage the subject of numerous farce
comedies and comic operas in which
Morgan was made the butt of Japanese
ridicule.
In spite of the fun the marriage oc-
casioned in the home of the honest
boys Morgan and his pretty bride ap-
pear to be happy. Mrs. Morgan is a
linguist of ability and pretty as a pic
ture.
The Morgans were met by Rev. F.
w. Clampett. who was once Morgan S
tutor and will be their host until Mon
day, when they will resume their
journey east.

BILL PROPOSES INCREASE
OF PRESIDENTS SALARY
Raise Also Wanted for Vice
President and Speaker

WASHINGTON, Jan. 15.-An amend
ment in the legislative, executive and
judicial appropriation bill increasing
the salary of the president to 100000.
of the vice president and the speaker
of, the house to $4,000. with $4,000 adj
ditional allowance for carriages and
coachmen for the vice president and
speaker, and increases for the judiciary
aggregating S328,500 precipitated a
lively discussion in the senate today.
Senator Borah of Idaho made point
of order against these increases, on the
ground that they involve general legis-
lation, which. according to the rules of
the senate, can not be placed on an ap-
preparation bill in face of a single OBJ
lection.
The debate centered upon the first
of the amendments objected to, which
was to increase the salary of the speak
er of the house of representatives, and
various criticisms were called forth
against such extensive advance of SAL
aries. although many senators, without
opposing some increase, insisted that it
should be considered in a separate bill
and not in one of the general supply
measures Of the government.
without concluding the debate, fur
ther consideration of the amendments
was postponed until next Monday. At
sos the senate adjourned.

GRAPE GROWERS WANT
REVISION OF TREATY
Demand California Wines Be
Admitted to Cuba

Efforts are being made to secure a
revision Of the reciprocity treaty with
Cuba by the grape growers of Califor-
MIA in order that California wines can
enter the island on the same basis as
Spanish wines. The matter is being
brought TO the attention of the ways
and means committee at Washington
through Congressman Needham. Under
the existing reciprocity treaty with
Cuba. Spanish wines have an advantage
over California wines owing to the
freight charges in shipping California
wines across the continent and then by
water to Cuba
Accompanying a letter sent to Con-
gressman Needham yesterday by the
grape growers of California was a
Statement from an American attorney
in Cuba who explained the wine stu
alton The attorneys letter stated that
there. are more than 100000 people in
Cuba alone who drink sweet wine. The
writer says: Il do not see how you can
compete with Europe until the treaty
reciprocity allows you a greater con-
cession than now exists
At present American whisky and
brandy enter Cuba at 25 per cent re-
duction from the regular tariff rates.
This does not benefit the wine produc-
ers. as the Latin Americans have a
taste for light wines, and California
winemen can not compete with the
Spanish wines.

COAST CITIES ALL
PULL FOR old BELL
San Francisco, Portland, Seattle
and Los Angeles Ask for
independence Relic

A fourfold call is being made from
the Pacific coast urging the mayor and
city council of Philadelphia to permit
the historic Liberty bell to be sent on
a visit to California cities, the Port
land rose festival and the Alaska
yukon exposition at Seattle. From the
tone of the letter received yesterday
by Douglas Watson, chairman of the
executive board of the Million club,
from R w Hoyt, president Of the
Portland rose festival, and the reply
sent by Watson to the Portland off,
cial. it is apparent that perfect coop
Grafton is being employed Confidence
Of the desired result is expressed by
both correspondents.
President Hoyt of the Portland rose
festival, expressed his qualification at
the efforts of the Million club to help
secure the Liberty bell for the Pacific
coast Il believe that If the entire
coast will work in harmony for this
object we can secure the grand old his
toric relic" said he. From latest ad-
vices it looks very favorable. I be-
heve that we will be able to get the
bell"
Hoyt stated further that all the Pa
cihc northwest was working to secure
the Independence bell and that the
Portland festival people and the Seat
tie exposition management were hand
in glove" in their efforts to secure the
relic.
IN his reply Douglas Watson stated
that the board of education of San
Francisco had taken an active part in
the bell campaign. He told of the
plans to have the bell the center of a
three years after" celebration should
it arrive here after April is and a
Progress week celebration to be held
which would attract people from all
over California
The mayor and board of supervisors
have been asked to use their efforts
and influence with the Philadelphia
authorities to secure the westward
trip of the bell Douglas. explained.
With San Francisco, Portland, Seat
tie and Los Angeles clamoring for the
Liberty bell there is but one outcome,
said Douglas, in concluding his letter.

THORNTON HAMS IS
FOUND NOT GUILTY
Spectators in Courtroom Rise
and Cheer as Jury Brings
in Its Verdict
Prosecution Now Despairs of
Conyicting Brother for AM
mis- Murder

FLUSHING, N. Y, Jan. 15.-After re-
viewing the evidence for "a hours and
taking Is ballots before all were
agreed, the jury in the trial of Thorn
ton J. Hains this afternoon found the
prisoner not guilty as principal with
his brother Captain Peter c.. Hains
Jr, in the killing of William E. Annis.
For the second time in his life Thornton
Hams has been found not guilty of the
charge of murder, he having been ac-
quilted of murder in shooting a COM
panion named Edward w. Hannigan in
an open boat in Hampton roads II years
ago.
Thornton Hams had an affecting
greeting with Captain Hams in the
Long Island jail, where he hurried in
motor car after the verdict, to take
his brother the news. General Hams
and his wife, who were waiting to
learn the verdict in the Hotel Astor
in Manhattan, heard the news from
their son Thornton. who telephoned his
parents as soon as he left the court
room. Mrs. Hams nearly tainted from
JOY at the news.
After spending an hour with Captain
Hams in the Jail Thornton Hams went
to the Hotel Astor, where he re-
mained throughout the evening with
his father and mother.
Rarely in any court has such a demon
stration been witnessed as that which
occurred this afternoon when the Jury
made known its verdict. The spectators
rose as one man and cheered with such
mighty vigor that the gavel falls of
Justice Crane on his desk could not be
heard Before proceeding further Jus
tice Crane ordered the trial chamber
cleared Thornton was escorted to a
hotel, while throng of townspeople
gave him a continuous greeting
Jurors stated that the first ballot
stood eight to four for acquittal. and
early this morning the ballot showed a
gain of one for acquittal. Jurors Heck
er, Johnson, Richmond and Boenigsvoted
for conviction of murder. Juror Boenig
held out until the final ballot was taken.
just after Justice Crane had sent for
the jurors, and then changed his vote
for acquittal making the jury unan-
imous. Officials of the district attor
ney's office in Queens county are quoted
tonight as saying that the verdict prob
ably means that Captain Hams will
never be brought to trial and that he
will be surrendered into the care of his
family or the federal government.

attempt to corruptly influence John

the Murphy trial and during the exami-
nation of jurors in the Newburgh case
the Citizens League of Justice has been
attacked by Schlesfnger, and finding
that Yates was a member of the law

vent to his feelings concerning the
league of justice many times How
ever, Schlesinger wan.ed Yates excused
from the jury for cause, but this chal-

and disallowed by the court. Finally
Schlesinger was compelled to exercise
peremptory challenge and Yates
gleefully rushed from the courtroom

ger by innuendo. Also Yates declared
that he would believe e. A. S. Blake,
the states chief witness, as readily
as he would believe A. S. Newburgh.
This announcement sent Schlesinger to
his feet with a challenge for the juror,
based upon the ground that his state
of mind was prejudicial TO the defend

sistant District Attorney Cook and dis
allowed by the court.

that he would follow new course of

Schlesinger exercised a peremptory

from counsel, was allowed.

Judge Whitley Rejoices
Over Public Approval
R. M1LFLEY. who was

r. WHITLEY, who was first
Judge OF the United States
court at Shanghai and whose
recent resignation was said to have
been rendered under pressure from
Washington, arrived here yesterday
from the orient on the liner Man
churia Wiley ridicules the sug-
gestion that the complaints regis
tered at Washington by the attor-
neys he had disbarred or by others
whose peace the rigid rulings OF the
federal court had disturbed were in
any way responsible for his retire
ment. He says:
7 rendered my resignation to
President Roosevelt last September.
IT was accepted November Is, to
take effect January l. 1t was en-
tirely voluntary. Rufus II. Thayer
Of Washing gton, D. c., has been ap-
pointed in my place and Secretary
Root has assured the Americans in
China by cable that the policy which
1 followed would continue to be
carried out. The nails are all
driven through. 1t remains now to
clinch them. and 1 have every rea-
son TO believe that my successor
viii do this more quickly than l
could have done"
JUDGE INDORSED BY CABLE
BY way of refuting the reports of
rejoicing in Shanghai over his res
ignation Judge Wiley exhibited
copies of four cablegrams, two from
Shanghai to President Roosevelt
and two from Secretary Root.
The first cablegram to the presi-
dent from Shanghai was signed by
a score of the most prominent
Americans there, including bankers,
merchants, educators and Bishop
Graves of the Episcopal church. The
other was from the secretaries of
the Young Mems Christian associa-
ton.
In the first cable the signers de-
plored the resignation of Wiley as
.'preiudicial to American prestige
and interests and strengthening the
forces opposed to law and order
They begged that his resignation
be not accepted.
The cablegram from the Y. M. c,
A. secretaries characterized VIII
fey's resignation as "a calamity to
American prestige and the cause of
righteousness in China"
WHITLEY SUGGESTED CHANGE
Secretary Root, replying for the
president, explained that Wilhey's
resignation had followed an express
