TRADE MATTERS
IN THE ORIENT
Japanese Ambassador Tells
Why. Japan Is Becoming a
Commercial Leader

Ann Arbor, Mich, June 14.-Baron
Kogora Takahira, Japanese ambassa-
dor at an address at the University of
Michigan Saturday night, discussed
the so-called commercial invasion of
America declaring it impossible to
avoid commercial rivalry which he
said, ia simply an outcome of the de-
velopment of international relations.
"The only way to meet such sit
uation is, as it seems to me. to con-
duct such rivalry in friendly and
right spirit" said he.
while our trade has been SO rap
idly increasing" said Ambassador
Takahira. Il hear sometimes rather
harsh complaint against Japan for
starting cotton mills and cigarette
manufacturing establishments and no
longer importing piece goods of man.
ufactured tobacco which we used to
buy from this country, but it must
be born in mind that, in making cot
ton goods and cigarettes in our own
establishments we are buying raw
cotton and tobacco leaves from the
United States. also hear some
heartrending reports to the effect that
since Japanese merchants became en-
ergctic, certain American houses have
been losing their business in the far

No HOPE FOR MEN
IN SUEKEN SHIP
Two Divers Have Lost Lives in
Trying to Rescue the
Victims

Sebastopol, June 14.-All hope is
gone of saving the lives of the crew
of the Russian submarine Kambala,
which was sunk in collision with the
battleship Rostislav during maneuvers
Friday night, or of recovering the
wreck, owing to the great depth of
the water. Two divers have died in
attempting to rescue the men on ac-
count fthe immense pressure. Others
have tried repeatedly and heroically
to pass chains around the wreck, but
finally came to the surface utterly
exhausted, having accomplished moth
ing. All operations have been aban-
doned. The chances of saving the
lives of the imprisoned men were
recognized from the first as very re-
mote, although under normal condi-
tions the submarines have an air
capacity of three days. The Kambala
type Of submarine. however. is weak
structurally, and for this reason can
not normally make a descent of more
than 100 feet. The Kambala went
down in $50 feet of water, and only
untrustworthy bulkheads stood be-
tween the men and death after the
boat was struck by the Rostislav's
ram. The disaster occurred five miles
from Sebastopol. Four men were
saved, including the commander,
Lieutenant Aquilonoff. who was CIV
ing orders through the speaking tube
to the helmsman just before the COL
lision. These orders, he says, were
misinterpreted. the helm being put to
port instead of starbOard.

MAN IS FOUND
Bruises on Temple Indicate
That He Was Pushed From
Moving Train

Towner, N. D., June 14.-The body
of an unidentified tramp was picked
up along the right of way of the Great
Northern near Denbigh Saturday
evening at 5 o'clock by a farmer
named Rosencranze. who brought the
remains into Denbigh. Bruises on the
temple of the dead man indicate that
he either fell or was pushed from a
moving train.
The officials of NIcHenry county
have commenced a thorough investi-
cation of the case in order that the
mystery surrounding the mans death
may be cleared up. If the fellow
was pushed from the train. as is now
supposed, every effort will be made
to locate and arrest the guilty party
or parties.
The inquest is being held this after
noon at Denbigh. which is just few
miles west of here on the main line
Of the Great Northern.

eastern trade. Painful as is that re.
port, l cannot help conceding that in
this age of rapid communication and
transportation which is no doubt a
great agency to facilitate the progress
OF civilization, 1t is impossible to
avoid commercial rivalry which is
simply an outcome Of the develop
ment of international relations"
THE total amount of Japanese
trade has been steadily and largely
increasing" said the speaker. when" :"
he continued, "there is such a large
increase in the total / venture to
think we have to satisfy ourselves
with 1t in view of the national import
ance involved in 1t even if there are
few articles or some houses that
have to lose their business from the
changed condition.
"The United States opened Japan
to foreign commerce by sending there
the famous Perry expedition some
half century ago and helped her rise
to the less modest position of the
present day. The United States or
ganized the Philippine islands in late
years, by introducing an improved
system of government and securing a
permanent peace for the inhabitants.
These friendly and humane achieve
ments, together with many other no.
BILE and generous actions taken to-
wards the far eastern countries by
your government have most unre-
servedly endeared the Americans to
the peoples of these regions.
"All these circumstances taken to-
gether into consideration, l doubt not
your participation In the coming ex-
position of the arts of peace in japan
will tend to create new era for the
commercial development of the two
borders of the Pacific and to form
the strongest ties between the Ameri-
can and the Asiatic peoples for their
mutual friendship and common inter-
est with every prospect of beneficial
results to the general welfare of man
kind at large"
The ambassador said the unpleas-
ant, unthinkable stories, which were
propagated in some quarters in re-
cent years consequent upon unfortu-
nate incidents in the west, have now
entirely disappeared before making
much mischief. "There can be no
stronger evidence to prove the gen.
uine friendship of the United States
and Japan than the several compacts
exchanged between the two countries
in the course of last year." said he.
In the course of his address, the
speaker said: There has been moth
ing which proved to have more ef-
fectively contributed to the progress
of Japan than the sympathetic efforts
and conscientious services rendered
by the American educators in intro
ducing into my country the modern
methods of education and also in in
structing my countrymen who came
to this country to study in your
schools. am only echoing the SEN
timent of the Japanese nation when
l say that we owe Il great debt OF
gratitude to the University of Mich.
igan for the education of our young
men,"

BECAME |NCENSeO OVER
REPR|MAAO BY CAPTAIN
Had Oyerstayed His Leave Of Absence
and When Reprimanded Asked to be
Observation-Disclosures Refused and
He Then Opened Hostilitics.

Des Moines, Ia, June 14.-Corporal
Lisle Crabetree yesterday afternoon
fatally shot Capt. Jno. c. Raymond,
commanding officer of troop B, Sec
ond United States cavalry at Fort Des
Moines, then shot and seriously in
jured first Sergeant James H. Wash
burn and Corporal E. Such, who at
tempted to disarm him, and fatally
shot himself.
Crabtrees injuries are not neces-
sarily fatal, the bullets striking rib
above the heart and crushing it.
Crabetree had been reprimanded
by Capt. Raymond, because of his fail
ure to report when his leave of alb
sence had expired. He had spent the
night in Des Moines and was to have
returned to his barracks at Z a. III.
Crabtree was summoned by Capt.
Raymond in the afternoon and ques-
toned as to his conduct whereupon
the corporal hotly insisted he had
leave of absence till a. M. last night
Capt. Raymond accepted this explana-
tion and the incident was considered
closed, when Crabtree demanded that
he be transferred to another depart
I
mond refused to consider, telling the
corporal he could not do that as long
as he was not good soldier.
Immediately Crabtree pulled a re-
volver from his pocket and began fir
ing. Sergeant Washburn jumped to
his feet and grappled with the soldier,
receiving bullet in the head and one
in the jaw which shattered the bone.
Capt. Raymond had seized the mans S
| arm and was about to disarm him
when bullet struck him in the neck
lodging in the spine and he dropped
! to the floor paralyzed.
A bullet struck Corporal Such in
the left arm. Crabtree fired bullet
into his own body.
Capt. Raymond is the son of Brig.
Gen. Chas. A. Raymond, retired,
| formerly of the engineers in charge
of rivers and harbors and stationed
at New York. His brother is Major
Robert Raymond of the engineers,
stationed at New York. Capt. Ray
mcnd is 3S years old and a member
of a we'll known military family in
the east. He was commissioned from
Pennsylvania.
Capt Raymond lies at Mercy hospi-
tai in a most precarious condition.
The surgeons expect to probe for the
bullet today, lodged next to the spine
in the back of the patients neck. The
Mercy hospital surgeons said today
that should he survive the operation
he will be paralyzed for life.

ball, the police commission, the tar
iff and other Indifferent subjects with
few friends. ]. H. Brady, the father
of the accused, Joined in the talk
which moved freely from group to
group of attorneys, marshals, wit
nesses and others, Mrs. Brady was
the only one to show signs of anxiety.
The latter part of the time she sat
in the waiting room with her arm
on the table and her head on her arm.
Mrs. Brady Was Anxious.
When the jury signifed that they
were ready, Mrs. Brady took her
place beside her husband, facing the
judges desk. She was visibly con-
trolling her feelings as the twelve
men filed and lined up on the side
of the room.
Gentlemen of the jury. have you
agreed on verdict?" asked the judge.
The shuffling sounds of the room
ceased.
1--WE have" said several of the ju-
rors. The foreman gave the judge
paper without saying a word.
| Brady and his wife shifted their
eyes from the jury to the judge as
the paper changed hands. They
strained Slightly forward as the
judges eyes ran over the paper OH
which was written the secret all were
waiting for. Even the elder Mr..
Brady looked anxious when the
judges face took on helpless look,
as if he was about to do something
disagreeable.
The Form Was Incorrect.
"This should be written on the
form provided by the court" said the
judge giving the paper back to the
foreman. You will have to retire
and write it out as required"
The suspense was too much for
Mrs. Brady. AS the last juryman
disappeared, she let her face fall in
her hands, sobbing. Her husband put
his arm around her and his face down
ITO hers. His father sprang from his
place, seeing this, and patted his son
encouragingly on the back.
Call the jury" ordered the judge.
Brady, his wife and father sat with
their eyes fixed on the judge this time.
Mrs. Brady seemed to be holding her
breath as he took the required ver-
dict form in his hand and slowly
said:
Leon H. Brady, l have to inform
you that the jury finds you are he
paused and looked at the paper, mot
guilty"
Then Happy Scene.
Mrs. Brady covered her face with
her hands and choked audibly. Brady
rose in his place, his eyes shining,
but his face still grave. He put one
arm around his wife, gently removed
her hands and put his face to hers.
She drew him to her then, as he turn
ed smiling and wet-eyed, embraced
his father, she let her head fall again
and sobbed freely. Brady's father
kissed him on both cheeks and when
he looked round again Mrs. Brady
raised smiling tear-stained face.
All those present in the court shook
hands with the happy family of faith
er. son and wife.

tions had been to bring verdict
