Attorney General Gives Opinion
on Powers of the Harbor
Commission, .

After a careful study of the law
points involved, Attorney General Alex
Lindsay has reversed the opinion he
few days ago, before he had examined
the statute relating to the case, and
he presented to the Board of Harbor
Commissioners this afternoon a for
NAL statement to the effect that that
commission has no right, under the
present law, to regulate the dockage
charges at priyately-owned wharyes.
At first flush" a few days ago,
when the matter was first called to
his attention, the Attorney General
was inclined to believe the commits
sion was empowered to set maximum
rates for all wharves, whether private
or public-owned, that were used by
the general public.
On more mature deliberation he now
decides that the law does not give
this authority to the harbor commits
sion, though he says the Legislature
undoubtedly has such right, and that
the Legislature can give the commits
sion the same power by the enact
ment of statute definitely covering
that point
The right in the legislature is
there" he asserted today, "as shown
in the case of Mum vs.. the state of
Illinois, in which the supreme court
of the United States held that similar
utilities, such as warehouse keepers
and elevators can be regulated by
state legislation. If the owner of a
private wharf declines to permit its
use by other shippers, the legislature

ARRESTED ON THE COAST
ON WHITE SLAVE CHARGE
S. H. Baumont, Who Had Girl
in This City, Taken
Into Custody.


s. II. Baumont. who was In Washing
ton early in August with . fourteen
year-old girl whom he claimed he was
taking to Alaska Al domestic. and who
became homesick and appealed to the
Washington police to be sent back to her
home in Brooklyn, has been arrested in
San Francisco. charged with violation OF
the white slave law. according to ad-
vices received by the Department OF
Justice.
BEAUMONT, who is about sixty years old.
said when in Washington that he had
advertised for a servant to go to Alaska,
and that the young girl. Elizabeth Arm
flult, had applied for the position. After
leaving Brooklyn the girl broke down
and telegraphed an older sister In
Brooklyn.
The sister communicated with the
Washington police. resulting in an IN
vestigation. The police could find no fault
with Baumont's plans and did not take
any action.
In San Francisco BEAUMONT according
to advices, was in the company OF an
eighteen-year-old girl. This time the girl
complained to the California authorities
that Baumont had drugged her and ac-
cused him of attempted assault.
He advertised for the second girl In
eastern papers and met the girl, a
Pennsylvanian, in Baltimore. He en-
ployed the same method of wanting a
domestic for Alaska. He gives his ad-
dress as Alaska.

AMBASSADOR IS SHOCKED.
Believes Nogi's Mind Succumbed to
Grief at Emperor's Death.

Viscount Chinda, Japanese ambassa-
dor here, was shocked and grieved at
the tragic death of Gen. Nogi and his
wife. The ambassador recalled the
fact that in the days of feudal japan.
when the lord of the manor died it was
by no means an uncommon practice for
his close dependents and friends to
commit suicide. in order that the spirit
of the deceased should not make the
last journey alone. In recent years.
and in the new Japan. this custom had
been generally abandoned. so that 1t
is now of very rare occurrence. The
fact that Gen. Nogi and his wife had
lost their two sons during the Russo
Japanese war. leaving them practically
without family ties. had centered their
affections and devotion upon the late
Emperor Mutsuhito, and 1T was doubt
less the case that upon his death the
mind Of the old warrior succumbed to
the strain.

NOT TO SEND CONDOLENCES.
Why State Department Officials Take
Unusual Course.

Official condolences on the death of
General Count Maresuke Nogi and Count

to Japan by the United States
State Department officials believe that
as in the estimation Of the japanese, the
suicide Of Count Nogi and his wife was
heroic, and in conformity with ancient
custom, condolences might be in bad
taste.
Although Gen. Kuroki. Admiral Togo
and others OF bright galaxy OF Japanese
military and naval talent OF the war
period have visited Washington in recent
years as the guest Of the nation. Gen.
Nogi never came here. In July, 1911. he
was to have accompanied Admiral Togo
to this country, but at the last moment
he was obliged to decline the special in
vitation that had been extended to him.
and Admiral Togo made the visit alone.
Judge Advocate General Crowder was
greatly surprised to learn of the self-de-
struction of the Japanese general. He
regarded him as a man OF more than
usual self poise and self command. The
old indomitable Samurai instinct it was
plain to be seen, said Gen. Crowder. had
strong hold upon his personality, and 1t
was doubtless the ancient early faith
that brought Gen. Nogi to self -destruc-
ton.
Gen. Crowder is one Of the few Ameri-
can army officers who come closely In
contact with Gen. Nogi during the Russo
Japanese war. He was one OF the Amer
