day any hostile intention on the part
OF his nation towards the United

States, according to his report
His statement is most important 1t

ranged for twenty-four hours in ad-
vance, when Baron Uchida was in
formed in writing that the San Fran
cisco Examiner would be glad to put
its columns at his disposal for any
communication he might desire to
make regarding the great influx of
japanese subjects into the Hawaiian
Islands.

ample time for the ambassador to com

the subject. lie appointed noon of to-

time and place of meeting the corre-
spondent. when he made the subjoined
statement
! II is the first definite ana extended
outline of the attitude of Japan toward
the United States that has been made
! public since the Root Takahira gen
tlemen's agreement on immigration.
The tone in which the ambassador
spoke was earnest There could be no

existing situation and The Importance

carefully pronounced
The ambassador laid great stress
upon traditional friendship between
Japan and the United states.

objects the conquest of Chinesekapar-

There is no doubt that Japan is now
in Il position to seize these islands be-

poison squad" some years ago to test
the effect of preservatives in foods
The question had been debated at
great length whether salicylic acid
and other drugs used as preservatives
for meats and canned goods were
really deleterious. DR.. Wiley holding
that they were injurious in some de-
gree and the producers of the foods
denying 1t.
In order to make a practical test of
the question DR.. Wiley organized his
poison squad, composed of about a
dozen young men, most of whom were
employees of the department of agri-
culture or were students at college,
and all of them in normal health. They
were to have free board If they would
agree to live in quarters assigned
them by the doctor, eat or drink moth
ing except what was provided for
them under the Doctors orders and
keep the hours prescribed
The experiments were carried
through and the results were utilized
by DR.. Wiley, though the practical
facts demonstrated were rather lost
sight of in the novelty of the tests.

PUTS AN END TO HARD TACK
New Army Ration In Vogue That
VIII Prove an Actual Luxury
to Soldiers.

The days for hard tack as an army
ration are over, the army officials In
Washington tell us. The dry bread
terror is at an end and new form OF
ration has come into vogue that Will
prove an actual luxury to the soldiers.
II is a new order in the line of bread
baking and its best qualities are that
it is lasting nourishing and pleasantly
palatable. Our soldiers will hence
forth be the best fed men In the
country.
The war bread" as the new ration
is called by the soldiers, had its fnal
test in the recent Texas mancuvers
and was in every way a complete sue
cess. The secret of its success is that
II will retain all the nourishment and
palatability of fresh bread for weeks.
A loaf is generally about two feet
long and slim in proportion and re-
sembles a small club. 1t contains
about two pounds OF nourishment and
ia sufficient to last a soldier "a hours.
To those who have endured the hard
tack fare through strenuous cam
paigns the war bread" is decided
relief.
The bread has a thick and strong
crust and in its making is not allowed
to rise a great deal. 1t IS baked
slowly and thoroughly dried out. Ibis
process of preparing makes 1t
sturdy little club of bread capable of
withstanding any amount o. hard
usage. 1t is readily prepared at the
field bakeries and can be corded into
wagons like wood and hauled for Gays
without crushing or souring

Wholesale Murder Suspected.

New Orleans.-In the arrest mere
of Annie Crawford on the charge OF
poisoning her younger sister, Elise, a
pretty stenographer, the police TOOK
their first step in an effort to clear
up the mystery of several deaths in
the family. Three other members OF
the Crawford family have died under
mysterious circumstances within the
last fifteen months and Annie Craw-
ford is said to have been the beneticl-
airy named in the insurance policies
on the life of each. Miss Crawford
according to police officials admitted
TO the district attorney that she gave
her sister Elise morphine, but did 1t
by mistake, as she intended to give
her calomel and soda; that she stoie
the morphine from the Presbyterian
hospital.

Washington.-The acuteness of the
corporation control question has led
officials of the Department of JUS
tice to believe that when the Presi-
dent returns he will give immediate
and serious attention to the matter of
securing federal legislation which Will
enable the great commercial compa-
nies to secure government incorpora-
ton.
Two years ago the President and
Attorney General Wickersham dis
cussed federal incorporation at great
length, and bill to secure it, undet
proper safeguards, was prepared by
the Department of Justice and sub
mitted to Congress.
No definite action was taken, and
recently it has been said that Presi-
dent Taft had no intention further to
urge the adoption of the legislation.
The steel trust and harvester trust
troubles and the general condition OF
uncertainty and anxiety manifest in
the great business centers, it is be-
lieved now, may lead to an active ef-
fort to secure at the coming session
passage of a law which will give the
government supervision over affairs OF
commercial institutions which care to
take advantage of the act.
Things have changed in Congress.
The Democrats are in control of the
House. The question is, what posi-
ton will the majority party leaders
take in connection with federal con-
troll of corporations. Representative
Underwood has said that the tariff
will be the only issue at the next ses-
sion. He may be mistaken. The re-
cent Supreme Court decisions and the
troubles of the great corporations
generally may force commerce to the
front, but a commerce having no re-
lation in this specific case to the tar
iff.
The President has said that the
Sherman law needs no amendment,
but it is likely that his utterances
will not prevent the Democrats, II
they give any attention to corpora
tion matters, from trying to amend it
at the next session.

ElNSTEIN, DOGS FOE, DEAD
The Famous Washington Poundmas-
ter Killed 100000 CANNES in
Thirty-eight Years.

Samuel Einstein, poundmaster in
Washington, is dead. During the past
SO years, it is estimated he caught and
put to death 100000 dogs. When he
was appointed official dog-catcher of
the national capital in 1874 he i'm
pounded almost as many stray horses,
goats, geese and cows as dogs. He
and his four assistants were set upon
often by the owners Of the live stock
which had been allowed to stray from
back yard pastures and frolic about
the city parks. His annual catch was
about 5000 year.

Thieves Get $4,000 from Postoffice


st. Louis.-The story how and
where a registered mail package con-
tanning $25,O0O was stolen more than
a year ago, has been revealed here.
The theft has been made public after
having been suppressed for year.
More than six months ago, it is re-
ported, the Postoffice Department
abandoned all hope of recovering the
money or finding out who stole 1t.
The Third National bank of st. Louis
registered at the main office Sept. 3,
1910, a package containing $4,000 In
currency, addressed to Galveston
banking house. The package was sent
from the main office to the annex sta
ton at the union station, where 1t was
receipted for by two clerks. The pack
age disappeared at or from the annex
station. The inspectors were never
able to find when it left the station
or who handled it after it was re-
ceipted for. Postoffice inspectors said
any of the twenty-three clerks at the
annex station could have taken the
money. Among the clerks are an eX-
convict and man discharged from
street railway company for taxing
money. No arrests were ever MADE
