That the killing of Pasquaie

a mistaken idea upon the part OF
Cozza is the opinion of Joe S.
Morak, prominent Italian inter-

Cozza was not aware that Mauro
was a married man and had a wife
and child in Italy, says Morak.
From all that can be learned,
Mauro called at the Cozza home
with four countrymen, to pay q
visit to the woman who had bee I

No Unjust City
4 Restrictions On
T the Suburbs
CITY ATTORNEY STILES AND COUNCILMAN LYNN KNOCK
PROPS FROM UNDER OPPONENTS OF ANNEX ATION-oR
DINANcEs WILL BE EITHER CHANGED NOT EN-.


Su burban farmers need not be
alarmed at the cry of opponents
of annexation that dairies will be
abolished and other restrictive or
dfnances enforced when the Great
er Tacoma movement takes in the
big territory.
Tacoma could not If she would
enforce present ordinances against
the farmers and she would not If
she could.
"Such an ordinance prohibiting
dairies out in the uncongestc1
sections l do not think any court
would uphold. 1t Is not reason
able and ordinances must be rea-
sonable," said Judge Stiles, city
attorney, today when asked if the
city would try to enforce the pres
ent ordinance. and Danish dairies
from the farms that will be taken
In.
"The farmers need not have
any concern on those matters. I
think the council will revise the
ordinances and adjust matters 50
as not to inconvenience the new
citizens coming in," said Council
man Lynn.
The city attorney said 1t will be
very easy to remodel the ordi-
nances and create district in
which the present regulations on
daries and some other matters
will not apply.
Tie whole burden of the OPP
position to annexation has been
laid almost on the restrictions
that would be visited on the farm
ers if the annexation program
carried, The farmers were told
they could not keep hogs, could
not have dairies, that they could
not blast out a stump nor a board
on the chicken coop without ask
ing for permit.
! The city officials, however, take
a different view of it. There will
be no attempt to enforce restric-
tive regulations on the new citi-
zens until the council has had o5-
portunity to amend the present
laws to suit the new conditions.

$4,000 RUSSIAN
TROOPS ON
THE MOVE
MYSTERIOUS ADVANCE TO
MANCHURIA BELIEVED TO
FORECAST PREPARATIONS
FOR WAR WITH JAPAN.
(By United Press Leased Wire.)

(By United Press Leased Wire
ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. T.
Fifty thousand Russian troops are
being moved today from Irkutsk
to the Manchurian frontier.
The reason for this move on the
part of the Russian war office
is closely guarded.
Despite the assurances of the
officials that there is nothing u
terror behind it, the feeling Is
prevalent here that the govern.
ment is attempting to strengthen
its fences in anticipation of the
second struggle with Japan that is
deemed inevitable.
1t was reported today that the
plans of the war office, initiated
by the removal of the Irkutsk gar
rison, will not be completed un.il
between 100000 and 100000 sol-
diers are in Siberia.

CHICAGO, Jan. THE coal
supply of this city is nearly ex-
hausted today and with traffic
|demoralized because OF the recent
storms, there was little likelihood
of quickly bringing in further
shipments.
The suffering among the poor
is growing. Relief measures II.
dertaken by the various charitable
failed to allay the
because of the scarcity
of fuel and the high prices of
provisions.
The big consumers supplies will
be exhausted tomorrow, which
threatens to result in a cessation
of manufacturing and a depletion
of electric and steam traffic.
Many buildings are scheduled
to close because OF the lack of
heat, and 1t is feared that a
wholesale order for the temporary
suspension of clerks and office
men will follow.

To Prevent Stock Watering.
1t is proposed that after pass-
age of the suggested bill. no
railroad shall be permitted to az
quire any interest of any kind,
directly or indirectly, in the capi-
tai stock or purchase or lease
any railroad, or any other corpor-
alton which competes with it.
The message recommends def
enactment of a law prohibiting
the watering of stock by reurir-
ing all stocks to be sold at nar
or at a value determined by tho
commission
As to Safety Appliances.
In addition, the commission is
to supervise the issues of all
stocks and bonds. The president
also recommends the passage by
the senate of the Esch bills pass
ed few weeks ago by the house,
giving the interstate commerce
commission power 10 standardize
the safety appliances of all rail-
roads.
The president says that Attor-
ney General Wickersham has pre-
pared a bill emDodying all of these
ideas, which is now ready for con-
gress.
In discussing the antitrust law,
the president says that it needs no
amendment.
"The object of the law is to
suppress the abuses of business,
and not to interfere with a great
volume of capital, which, concen-
trated under one organization,
has reduced the costs of produc-
tion and made its profits thereby,
and took no advantage of its size
to stifle competition.
Would Protect Capitalists.
81 conceive that nothing
could happen more destruc-
tive TO the prosperity of this
country than the loss of that
great economy in production
which has been, and will be,
effected i'm all manufacturing
lines by the employment of
large capital under one man
agement."
After declaring that the decf-
sions of the supreme court upheld
the law, the president says:
"The value of the statute,
which is rendered more and more
certain by a long line of deci-
sions by the supreme court of the
United States, furnished strong
reasons for leaving the act as IL
is"
He declares that It is the duty
of the department of justice, un-
der the present law, to investigate
all trusts.
Through all our consideration
of this grave f-estion, however.
we must insist\ & the suppress
sion of competitN the controli-
ing of prices and ri opoly. or any
attempts to monope SSe in inter-
state commerce andN siness, are

WASHINGTON, Jan. 7.-Sec-
retary of the Interior Ballinger
was closeted with President Taft
today and other conferences were
held at which the participants are
supposed to have discussed the
question Shall the presidential
. axe chop off the official head of
Clifford Pinchot, chief forester of
the United States?
Many are inclined to believe
that. the reading in the senate by
Senator Dolliver of a letter writ
ten by Pinchot, in which the chief
forester defended his subordinates
for the aid they gave l.. r. CLAWS
former chief of the field division
of the land Office, in preparing the
cases on which charges were
brought against Ballinger, must
mean Pinchot's dismissal.
The question of whether Piu-
chOt, officially decapitated, and in
! the role of martyr to the RoOse-
welt policies" would not be ey-
ceedingly embarrassing to the ad-
ministratiOn, Is being given ser.
Ions consideration.
Taft Mad and Afraid.
The presidential ire is said to
have been aroused to an extrao--
dilary extent by Pinchot's state
ments that Claws was "a most
vigorous defender of the peoples )
interests" This coming in the
face of the dismissal of CLAWS by
Taft and the presidential rebuke
administered to him for his
charges against Ballinger. has de-
veloped one of the most intensely
interesting situations the capital
has seen in many day.
Taft could remove Pinchot for
violation of the presidents order
forbidding officials from writing
letters to members of congress en-
departmental affairs, which set
forth that such information must
emanate from members of the cab
met.
Thinking About 1912.
The question before the admin
istration today is whether the dis
missal of Pinchol would not i'm
mediately bring out the trouble
some ghost embodied in the So
Jailed "Ro9sevelt conspiracy" and
arouse thu back from Ebba"
movement.
Pinchot's letter was one of the
chief topics at today's session Of
the cabinet.

In an interview recently, the Bri-

the substance of an interview with
King Manuel of Portugal.
What | feel most keenly," said
the former King to Sir Archibold,
is that Ihave been driven from
my country like criminal. Had
the parliament decreed that re-
public should be established would
have accepted it. But | had no
heart to fight the plots / knew were
being carried on.
The people may accept the re-
public rather than have bloodshed,
but it is not their own wish to des-
troy the monarchy"
This, is all the comment on the
revolution the deposed young king
has made.
Manuel was profoundly touched
by the fidelity of the Municipal
guard and the regiments that fought
for him. He asks questions all the
time concerning results Of the fight
ing in Lisbon.
Queen Amelie looks grief stricken.
Her pride has been deeply wounded.
When he was leaving the royal
yacht, Manuel shook the hand Of
each sailor in turn, thanking them
for their devotion in his hour of
need. The King said to them that
they were going back to Lisbon as
citizens of the Republic, and he,
perhaps, should never go back. As
he said this his voice broke with
femotion.
