JAPAN WANTS NEW DEAL.
Remuneration of Its Treaty With This
Country

Washington, June 12.-The Japanese
government. according to present
plans, will renOunce the existing
treaty with the United States. This
is no mark of hostility. but only a
part of an effort of that government
TO revise and bring up to date its
whole fabric of foreign treaties. The
present treaty was negotiated by Sec
retary of State Gresham in the last
Cleveland administration. Before that
time the status of Japan in world
relations had been that of a semi
barbarous country.

MAN WHO PREDICTED
ROOSEVELTS DEATH

New York. June 12.-Profes-
sor Frederick Starr. of the
chair of anthropOlOgy in the
University of Chicago, returned
today from a trip around the
world. not far ahead of Roose-
welt, whom, he predicted, would
never live to see civilization
again if he dared the jungles
of Africa. When reminded of
his prediction, Starr said ROOse-
Welt had chosen a less danger
Gus path than the one original
ly announced, avoiding the pois-
on-laden swamps so deadly to
the white man.
In Japan Starr dressed and
lived as a japanese. studying
tho customs and religion of the
people. 4 believe" he said,
that there will be a reaction
in Japan against the customs
of the Occident. These adopted
customs are found to be un-
suitable to the country and are
being cast off already. Am
erican trade will never be a Sc
rious factor in the Orient, be-
cause the japanese and Chinese
are so apt to copy our meth
ods and products"

STREET CAR HELD UP
At SANTA Re CROSSING
MoToRMAN SMITH RELIEVED OF
ABOUT $50.
The Robbers Countenance Was Mask
ed BY a Red Handkerchief

An incoming street car was held up
last night west of the Capitol and
Motorman f. A. Smith was robbed of
about 500 He thinks there were
three men engaged in the robbery
though only one actively officiated.
Another was standing in the shade of
a tree beside the track and the mo-
torman thought he caught glimpse
Of = third.
The hold-up took place at 1915 at
the Santa Fe track crossing. There
were no passengers on the late in
bound car. There are seldom any
at that time of the night and Motor
man Smith was alone The crews
of the Washington street line con-
sist of two men each. but at the
switch on Thirteenth avenue, the mo-
the conductor goes on acting as mo-
torman also.
Approaching the Santa Fe crossing
there is a heavy grade and the car
was run up it slowly AS the for
ward end of the car ran upon the
railroad track the trolley came off
and the motorman got off to adjust
it, As he was about to start the
car a man stepped in front of him.
presented a gun and demanded the
contents of his pocket. The rObber
he thought was about five feet high,
but he could gain no idea of his
features which were obscured by a red
| bandana handkerchief from the eyes
down The motorman could judge Of
his age only by his voice and he
thought he might be twenty-five or
thirty. He had the voice of a de-
termined man. At least, so it seemed
to the motorman.
The money was surrendered without
parley Just how much of it the
mOtOrman does not know. but he
does know that Sc of it was his The
rest belonging to the company, he be-
lieves was in the neighborhood of
$500.
AS soon as the robber received the
money he backed away from the
track and joined his companion. The
motorman being at liberty to follow
his own inclinations. started his car
towards town. but stopped at the first
opportunity to telephone to Superin-
tendeht Mitchell informing him Of the
hOld-up.
He then proceeded on his journey tC
the car barns where Mr.. Mitchell was
awaiting him. The police having
been informed of the robbery. Mr.
Mitchell and MOtorman Smith were
joined on their return by Captain
Corners and all three proceeded t.
the scene of the hold-up The sher
iffs office also sent representative:
to the scene.
1t was not expected that the visi
would result in more than a discover!
of the tracks of the robbers whicl
could not well be followed last night
They probably came into town sool
after the motorman was released.
The last previous street car hold
up took place about year ago on tn
, Indian School line.

demic of smallpox is raging in

STATUS OF STATEHOOD
No Decision Reached But
Probabilities Are, the Bill
Will Not Become Law At
This Session - Guessing
At Adjournment

washington, June l2.-The confer
ence committee on the railroad hlli
was in session six hours today. Its
progress indicates that it will prob
ably report on Wednesday. In ten
tatiye draft, the only questions re-
naming in serious dispute are those
relating to long and short hauls
and the period for which increases in
rates shall be suspended to give the
interstate commerce commission time
to pass upon them.
With an agreement on the railroad
bill in sight, the members of con-
gress are beginning to figure on ad-
journment. Few expect the session
will last longer than June 30th, and
not a few put the time of adjourn
ment as early as June 18th.
Few other matters of legislation
are expected to consume much time.
4 canvas Of the senate indicated de-
cided sentiment in favor of adopting
the house amendments to the postal
savings bank bill This will avoid
a conference,
The sundry civil bill will probably
be passed by the senate tomorrow.
The bin authorizing the president to
withdraw lands for certain purposes,
is the only conservation measure, it
is stated. that will go through. To
that it may be added, it is expected
that the bill that has already passed
the senate to permit the issuance
of certificates of Indebtedness to the
amount of $4,000. 900 TO complete the
reclamation work win be passed by
the house.
The opposition to the conservation
bin. is based on the statement of
former Forester Pinchot, that it would
authorize the filing upon as mineral
claims. of certain water power sites,
known to be underlaid with minerals,
but this apparently has not been gen.
orally accepted as a serious criticism.
Advocates of the bill assert that a
few water sites would be affected
and in those cases it would be nee
essary for the claimant to prove that
the tract was more valuable in min
erals than for development of power.
No decision has been reached as to
statehood legislation but it is the i'm
preston that nothing will be done at
this session. Even if the bill as re-
ported from the senate committee on
territories would pass il will differ
so from the house bill that there will
be slight chance of an agreement in
conference.
The railroad bill, therefore, appears
to be the key to the adjournment sit
uation. just as it has been for nearly
four months. Whether the conference
report will be such as the two
branches of congress will be ready
to accept. remains to be seen. Those
who advocated the retention of the
house amendment providing for the
physical valuation of railroads will
be disappointed. a similar fate awaits
those who wanted the government to
regulate the issuance of railroad Sc
curities. although the conference bill
will provide for a commission to in
vestigate the matter.
