LITTLE KOREA
JAPAN ARRANGING TO ABSORB
THE HERMIT KINGDOM AND
MAY PERFORM THE FEAT OF
DEGLUTITION TODAY.

Washington, Aug 2O-Following
the recent advices from Ambassador
OBrien at Toxic, the state depart
ment is anticipating today the ar
rival of dispatches confirming the
reported annexation of Korea by the
Mikado's government.
Although no protest will be made
by the United States, it is believed
that careful watch will be kept of
the terms of the acquisition of the
peninsula by Japan. Several treat
les exist between Korea and the
United States which are more ad-
vantageous in several particulars
than those existing between Japan
and the United States. If Korea
should become part of Japan, the
Korean-American treaties would be
abrogated and American citizens in
Korea would find themselves amen
able to the stricter terms of the Jap
'anese-American agreements. 1t is
this possible conflict that the state
department will seek to avoid.
Especial effort will be made to pre-
serve the extra-tefritorial jurisdic-
tion of the United States over Amer
leans in Korea now recognized by
the Asiatic protectorate. No such
extension of jurisdiction is allowed
by Japan in her dominions
1t is believed that the presence of
several Japanese warships near the
Korean coast is indicative of i'm
mediate action by the Yeddo gov
ernment. Conferences between Jap
anese and Korean officials are also
knGwn to be in daily progress.

After a thorough examination OF
the state statutes and decisions OF
the supreme court interpreting
them, and also decisions of the
courts of other states on the subject
of the inheritance tax, Attorney
General Crawford yesterday after
noon rendered an opinion in which
he declares that the stocks and
bonds of a corporation under Oregon
laws are personal property and gov
erned by the laws of the owners
domicile instead of the situs of the
corporation, and therefore under the
states statutes are not liable to the
payment of an Inheritance tax.
Hartman Estate Escapes.
Ever since the death of e. H.
Hartman, then president of the
Southern Pacific and o. r. G. N
Railroad companies, there has been
a question as to whether under the
inheritance tax law of this state the
stocks and bonds owned by him in
the roads in this state were subject
to a tax. With the view of securing
an Interpretation of the law on the
subject Treasurer Steel asked the
attorney general to render an opin-
ion as to whether stocks and bonds
of Oregon corporations owned by
the estates of non-residents were
liable to the payment of an in
heritance tax. According to the at
torney generals Interpretation of
the law these bonds and stocks
would not be subject to an inheri-
tance tax as the laws of this state
declare them to be personal prop
erty and governed by the law of the
owners domicile which would mean

Follow the Person.
The attorney general in his opin-
ion cites to begin with section of
the inheritance act which contains
clause that "all property within
the jurisdiction of the state and any
interest therein" shall be liable to
an inheritance tax, and calls atten-
tion to the clause.
He then takes up section which
provides that stocks and bonds
standing in the name of the de-
cedent in the state can not be trans
ferred or assumed by a foreign exc
cutor or administrator without the
payment of an inheritance tax to the
state treasurer Constituting the
two sections together he contends

them to be personal property.

sonal property is governed by the

the situs of the corporation he gives
1t as his opinion that the stocks and
bonds of Oregon corporations owned
by the estates of non-residents are
not subject to the inheritance tax.

SUCCESSFUL SEARCH.
The West Concord House Visited a
Second Time and Wet Goods
Found in Cold Air Shaft.

D. F. Grout, proprietor of the
West Concord house in that village,
is playing in hard luck. A little over
a month ago States Attorney Hunt
of Essex county ordered a search of
his place and found large quantity
of liquor. That visit was rather ex-
pensive to Mr.. Grout and to assist
in keeping his balance sheet clean he
layed in another stock which went
very well while Mr.. Hunt was in
vestigating the Lunenburg murder.
However, he got little time off and
sent Sheriff .Beattie of Guildhall and
Deputies Dodge and McGregor over
last Thursday to visit Mr.. Grout with
another search warrant in their
hands.
1t proved to be case of search
because no liquors were found in
their accustomed places. The officers
finally got the scent and opened the
cold air shaft to the hot air furnace
and great was their reward. They
fished out "a pint bottles and six
quart bottles of whiskey, four quart
bottles of gin and bottle of cock
tails.
Mr.. Grout and his son, George,
who was absent on the first visit,
were taken into custody. They were
given hearing before Justice j. B.
Wallace and both bound over for ap-
pearance before the grand jury They
furnished bail and are awaiting the

SAVED BY THEIR DOG.
A. Boucher and Wife Narrowly
Escape Perishing in Fire Which
Cutted Their Store and Home.

Seeing the smoke coming up the
back stairs the dog of A. Boucher
began scratching at their. bedroom
door and succeeded in awakening
them just in time to make their es-
cape from their burning building
early Saturday morning. After Mr..
and Mrs Boucher retired Friday
night fire started under the stairs in
the back store which led up into the
kitchen of their living rooms. The
dog was sleeping in the kitchen and
heard the fire before his master and
mistress AS soon as they were
aroused they grabbed some clothes
and barely escaped from the build
ing. Mr. Boucher had his eye brows
singed and Mrs. Boucher was burned
some on the back Of the neck.
The alarm was sounded from box
36 at 1.40 a. M, and the firemen
quickly responded. When they
reached the place the back part of
the building was in flames. The
building was of an infamable nature
and after a time the fire burned
fiercely, scorching the Hartshorn
building and setting it on fire once.
The windows on that side of the
Hartshorn building were broken by
LH0 Heat dI1u In0 OCCQpdhLS WO1O
forced to take their clothes and leave.
The fremen were able to keep the
blaze from spreading and after two
and one-half hours of fighting had
the flames extinguished.
The building and contents are
practically total loss and Mr..
Boucher estimates it at $4,000. He
carried insurance as follows: On
the building, $500; on his furniture,
$500; on his stock of moulding,
5000, and Mrs Boucher's stock of
millinery, $1,000; total, $4,000.
The first floor of the building was
occupied by Mr.. Boucher as a pic
ture frame shop and by Mrs. Boucher
as millinery store. The rooms up
stairs were occupied by them as a
dwelling.
Mr.. and Mrs. Boucher went to the
home of their son, Alfred, on Maple
street and are staying there for the
present. Mrs. Boucher had ordered
her fall stock of goods but telegraph
ed to New York to have their ship
ment stopped. They are not decided
yet what they will do about rebuild
ing.
