AMERICAN CITIZEN is
CHARGED WITH MURDER
Body of Wealthy Merchant of Annoy,
China, Found After Two Weeks
Disappearance

Annoy, China, Sept. 6.-The body of
a wealthy merchant of Annoy who dis
peared a fortnight ago was found near
this city yesterday. The authorities
have issued warrants for the arrest of
several prominent residents of Annoy,
including Eugene Velasco, an American
citizen, son of a Manila millionaire.
Julian H. Arnold, the American con-
sui, insists that if Velasco is held in
custody as an alleged murderer and
prosecuted it must be by the American
authorities.

DISPUTES Between CHINA
AND JAPAN ARE SETTLED
Text of Agreement Between Oriental
Nations VIII Be Published at
Toxic Wednesday

TOXIC, Sept 6.-The text of the
agreement between China and Japan
on the so-called general Manchurian
question, which was signed at Peking
last week, will be published in Toxic
tomorrow.
The agreement settles the Chen Tao
boundary dispute, the matter of ex-
tending and undermining the An Tung-
Mukden railroad by Japan and other
questions long in dispute which were
productive of lengthy negotiations and
for time caused considerable feeling
and friction between the two countries.

.nts In Conflict

The forestry division of the agricul.
t,1ra1 department has come into direct
conflict with the interior department,
and Chief Forester Clifford Pinchot mas
publicly attacked some of the acts OIL
Secretary Ballinger. -
1t is the general belief that out oI
Secretary Ballinger's interview WIN
the president today some definite actlon
will result. The issue has been rather
sharply drawn, and as was the case
hetween Director North of the census
bureau and Secretary Nagel OF the oe-
partment of commerce and labor II
cannot be overlooked, according 10 tLle
Judgment of government officials VINO
have been much perturbed by the IN
tensitv of the controversy.
THE fact that Chief Forester PiIlcIioe
"a warm personal friend OF former
President Roosevelt, and that ne mas
called into question the faith OF the IN
terior department in carrying out the
Roosevelt conservation policy, makes
the situation rather embarrassing TO
the president. .., sor match
Mr.. Taft before starting for IHatIn I5I..
oorne of golf at the Myopia CLUB INKS
tbis morning made an anxious inquiry
as to the time of Mr.. Ballingers eS
nected arrival. When he learned I!l1 .7
Secretary was not due in Beverly unsll n,.a
the afternoon he sped away TO liie
green.
Los Angeles herald., 1909-09-07

in washington, Secretary Ballinger
.'These reports justify the statement
that this department has nothing TO
fear from the closest scrutiny OF the
conduct of its officials"
