Mr.. Potter would not discuss even in
ferentially what may be the purpose Of
the fire continuing pending an official
report. Forest rangers are now en-
gagged in rounding up definite evidence
Mr.. Potter views with anxiety this
particular side of the situation and in
timated that it may be necessary TO
call upon Governor Benton of Oregon,
for aid from the Oregon National
guards. Many federal troops as posi-
BILE are being rushed on foot, into the
burning regions from nearby posts.
The fires are especially threatening
in the Crater lake country OF south
ern Oregon. Advices tonight indicate
that at least 2,000, 600 acres of timber
are in danger OF being swept away.
Supervisor Buck reports that the situa-
ton at MedfOrd, Ore, also is extreme
ly critical and there is little Likelihood
of eXtinguishing the flames which in
that region are spreading with the
greatest speed. Forest officials are now
directing their fighting forces to con-
fine the fires il possible to the east
side of the Cascades. Some encourage
ment was felt in late adYices tonight
stating that the fires in the WallOwas
Oregon, district, were under control,
and troops employed there would be
sent to other points.
War department officials protested
10 know nothing regarding the alleged
refusal OF Brig. Gen Maus, at AmeFi-
can Lake, TO send troops to southern
Oregon. Forestry officials, however,
were advised that at noon today five

The privy council of Japan today
was summoned TO meet at 1880 o'clock
tomorrow and this is regarded by Well
informed persons as practically the
signal to complete the negotiations
between General Terauchi, the Japa-
nese resident general in Korea, and
the emperor of Korea and his cabinet,
which have continued q week.
While the negotiations are shrOuded in
absolute official silence, there no
longer can be any doubt that the KO-
rean emperor has agreed TO sign a con-
vention, by which, in view of the IN
tenable conditions obtaining, he and
his government and people consent TO
the absolute control of Korea by the
emperor and government of Japan.
Pact Already Signeds
Tonight extra editions of the news
papers say the convention already has
been signed, but whether or not this
be so some announcement is expected
shortly after the meeting tomorrow
of the priVy council This probably
will include the official proclamation
of the conclusion of the convention Of

If the fire is not brought under con-

y ROVILLE, Cal, Aug. 21.-Sixty
weary guests of the Western
Pacific are resting tonight at
OrOVilIe, after strenuous day OF
Sightseeing and receptions, at Hart
well, at POrtOla and half a dozen other
towns along the new line. Bands
played mt the depOts and there were
stirring speeches and a general good
time.
At Oroville an elaborate program
had been arranged and it was we'll
carried out Officials of the road made
speeches, as did several of the guests.
They were permitted to harvest or
anges, dates and figs and enjoyed the
novelty.
There are elaborate programs for
today at the various way stations, with
a rousing celebration planned in
Oakland.
A message was sent today 10 Vice
President Schlacks, signed by all the
guests. cOngratulating the Western

annexation unless all the prOgnOstica-
tions OF well-inf0rmed persons are IN
correct.
The Vi dynasty in Korea has lasted
for SIS years. Seven branches of the
family remain and the heads OF these
will be given rank as princes. A
number Of other officials viii be ele-
waited 10 the japanese nobility.
Throughout negotiations the mass OF
the Koreans have been kept in entire
ignorance of what has been transpir-
ing. The newspaper censorship is
complete and Japanese newspapers
have not been permitted 70 be sold ia
Korea.
1t is not believed. however, that an
nexatiOn by Japan viii involve dis
turbances in any section of Korea
which is thoroughly pOliced. Certainly
the court and cabinet officials in the
peninsula are quite cOmplacent. The
vast majority of the people OF Korea
realize that conditions in their cOun-
try will be improved and it viii be im-
possible for the malcOntents TO arouse
sufficient feeling 70 create an up
rising.

CRITICISM OF THE GOVERNOR.

In al! the criticisms Of Cover
nor Kitchin for the pardon of
Baxter Shemwell we have seen
nothing that reflected upon Mr..
kitchin's past and only one re-
ference to his ability. but most
of the discussion has been con-
fined to this one act and the In
fiuence it will have on the future
enforcement Of law, and also the
violation Of law. People that
have heretofore been warm
friends of the governor have said
what they felt about this matter
and expressed regret, but it
seems in some quarters there
arises defenders of the governor
that would lead one to believe
that all sorts Of things had been
attributed to the Governor. Such
is not the case. and only refer
ence has been in most if not all
instances to this one case.
The pardoning power is one
power that would be we'll sus-
pended for an indefinite period,
or adhered to in the sense that
it is generally accepted to suf-
fer to pass without punishment
an offense against the law" DER
idea of pardon is that the guilt
or innocence of D man is not a
consideration, for that has al
ready been inquired into by the
court, but to allow a man that
has been sentenced to 90 free
because of certain conditions.
The criticisms were free because
many people believed that be-
cause of Shemwell's past he had
escaped justice, and people were
led TO believe that because Shem-
well had money and influence he
secured i pardon. and it viii he
laAe time ssf0re many people
believe otherwise.
