Boyle, labor leaders charged
with conspiracy to extort, occupied
the witness stand in their own behalf
today in Judge McSurley's court.
Their testimony dealt in detail with
legitimate causes for calling a strike
on the Joseph Klicka company plant
and was vigorous and unanimous to
the effect that no money had been
paid to settle the trouble.
George S. Andres statement that
he had, at Madden's direction, laid ST.

saloon, was fatty contradicted by

Asked about Andres visit, Madden
said that number of labor men were

money whatever.

He was again sustained.

NO FREE LUMBER
McCumber Amendment Defeated by
Vote of Sc to 25.-DOlIiver Makes
Radical Change of Front and Votes
with Regulars.-SenatOr Owen AT.
tacks Present Tariff ON Sugar.
(By Associated Press.)

RAIASHINGTON May 24.-No single
W. piece of lumber was ever used
more effectively as see-saw by
children than was the great lumber
industry today by the United States
senate. The lumber schedule of tha
tariff bill was under consideration al
most the entire day with Senators
Root, Hepburn, Borah and Dolliyer
contending on the one hand for pro-
lection and Senators Clapp, Burkett
and McCumber arguing as strenuously
against the policy. The day closed
with more than a two-thirds vote
against Senator McCumber's free
lumber amendment, the ballot showing
25 for and 56 against.
The surprise of the day was the
attitude of Senator Dolliver who here
tofore had stood with the progress
ives" throughout the fight. He took
positive position against the radical
demand for free lumber.
Senator Root opened the proceed
lngs for differential on dressed lum-
Der. Senator Borah and Hepburn con-
I0hu0u lol Vne nlSneSC duty on lum-
ber and Mr.. Borah argued that the
policy of protection is a system and
cannot be maintained. Senators CIapp
and Burkett argued that lumber can
be produced as cheaply in the United
States as in Canada and contended
that the lumber industry of this coun-
try would not tbe endangered by the
free admission of the Canadian prod
uct.
Senator Hayburn spoke of the Re-
publican platform in a way that
brought down some criticism on his
head and Senator Bailey declared that
he did not propose to be bound by
the platform adopted by the Democrats
at Denver.
Mr.. Bailey said that enactment OF
the pending tariff bill would see the
disintegration of the Republican party.
Senator Owen made a sharp attack
upon the present tariff on sugar, say
ing that it led to frauds by trust and
still earlier Aldrich introduced reso-
luton providing for an investigation
of the expenditures of the various ex-
ecutive departments.

Billings White Slave Case Proves to
Be One of Most Aggravated Ever
Noted by Officers.
A GIRL IS BEATEN
Locked I'm Foul Room and Fed on
Rotten Food to Compel Her to Give
Herself to Life of Shame.-Was
Lured From Home in Japan by
ScOundrel.

IN ELENA, May 24.-The most aggra-
I'LL waited white slave case the fed
eral authorities have discovered
in the state is the case of Suzuki Ku-
rataro and his wife, Hatzon Kurataro
according to the officials who have
the case in hand and officials of the
district attorneys office.
The couple was arrested in Billings
last week and was indicted by the
grand jury Saturday for importing
from Japan for immoral purposes a
woman named Konishi Koto, and for
holding her for immoral purposes in
pursuance to the Importation
1t is charged that while she was
living in Yokohama, Japan, learning
sewing, she met Kurataro, who per-
suaded her to come to the United
States, he promising to give her a po-
sition in his store and embroidery es-
tablishment. Arriving in this coun-
try the Japanese endeavored to induce
the woman to lead an immoral life,
but she refused to acquiesce. He then
brought her to Billings and again
the Japanese and his wife endeavored
to compel her to practice prostitution.
Upon her again refusing she was
locked in room, fed small guam
tity of rotten, dirty food, and was
beaten by Mrs. Kurataro. She grew
gradually weaker from starvation and
at last gave in, meanwhile watching
out for chance to escape. She tried
to escape once, but was caught by
Kurataro's wife, who kicked and beat
her and then locked her up.
Finally she managed to get away
and was sheltered by some Japanese
living in Billings, and short time
later she was married to Yamamoto
Tokutaro.
