KNOX IS FEASTED
 IN THE ORIENT
SECRETARY OF STATE GIVEN A BANQUET BY AMERICAN REs-
 lDENTs OF JAPAN.

Yokohama, Sept. 21.-The Ameri- can secretary of state, Philander c Knox, was the guest of honor at a dinner given here tonight by members of the American colony.
 Responding to toast, the secretary reviewed the accomplishments of the reign just closed. saying that Japan's grief might be assuaged by a proud contemplation of the inestimable blessings of the Meiji Era during which the empire had extended and been permanently established. This era was unexcelled by any other chap ter of human history, he declared.
 The relations of the United States to the marvellous changes in this country in the past 50 years had been intimate, he continued.
 ''The Japanese horizon was extend ed largely because we urged her to open the door for the ingress of our civilization and the egress of her own' he said. "The empire has been uni- fled and strengthened through a self sacrificing patriotism which s without historic precedent"
 MT. Knox said that when the Meiji emperor established equal and hu- mane laws the west recognized a de- termination to advance faithfully to higher world of civilization. Recall ing the important part played by the United States in urging Japan so broaden the stage of her world ac- tivities, he said America was logically prepared to rejoice with Japan in her progress toward the attainment of a maximum development.

WILSON DEMANDS
 AMERICAN'S RELEASE
IGNORES USUAL DIPLOMATIC FOR MALlTiES IN CASE OF MEX
 ICAN RESIDENT.

Mexico City, Sept 21.--lgnoring the usual channels of diplomatic iter- course, the American ambassador, Henry Lane Wilson. has made per emptory demand on Governor Matias Guerrero. of the state of Tamaulipas, for the immediate release from the jail at Tampico of w. c. Nichols, an Amer ican fruit grower Nichols was ar rested SIX months ago on a charge of having killed bandit, Caballos, whose apprehension the authorities had at tempted for many months.
 The embassy was authorized by the administration as Washington to em- ploy whatever means he considered necessary to bring about an ameliora- ton Of Nichols condition. Ambassa- dor Wilsan says he will gain his re- lease even if it is necessary to land marines from the United States cruiser Des Moines, nof at Tampico.
 The American ambassador regards the treatment accorded Nichols by the Mexican authorities as persecution. and has so stated in his message to the governor. In support of this be- lief, he points to the fact that Mex ican has confessed in court to being the slayer of Caallos. This comics sion was disregarded by the court. The Mexican was not arrested, and the process against Nichols was continued on an appeal from the sentence of eight years i'm mprisonment. The ap- peal is being heard before the court at Cuidad Victoria, the state capiatl.
 The jail in which Nichols is confined is filthy and overcrowded. Ambassa- dor Wilson hsa been treating with the matter for several months diplomat icaiiy, but has accomplished little. In his note to the governor. the ambassa- dor reminded him that his essage was not official, but that it was to be con sidered none the less authoritative. He deanded that Nichols be placed lin surroundings more sanitary and in keeping with the usage of civilized countries" pending proceedings against him, which Ambassador will son suggested be hastened.
 The killing of Caballos occurred near Tampico. Nichols had been vest ed with authority to arrest the des- perado which he did. He was taking him to Tampico on a train when in the confusion at crowded station the captive escaped. Nichols and big crowd pursued him. Nichols admits firing but the evidence showed that he fired in the air. The body of Caballos was found later several hun dred yards from the spot with bull let through the heart.

Va, Sept. 21.-The conference of West Virginia business men, coal operators and miners call ed for today. by Governor GlasscocS to discuss conditions in the Kanawha coal fields, now under martial law because of the strike of miners, ad- journed late today without anything being accomplished.
 The meeting was called to devise means of ending the strike and plan legislation aiming at better control of the region. John F. While, interna- tional president of the United Mine Werkers of America, objected early in the day because actual strike con- ditions were not to be discussed.

 The meeting was twice postponed today to allow further time for for mutation of a plan of procedure, and when finally it was called to order by Governor Glasscock, he announced the minimum wage, high cost of liv- ing, and settlement of future labor troubles by arbitration, would be dis cussed
 Soon after the question as to who should sit in the conference had been brought, statement was presented by coal operators of the state that their presence in this conference is not to be taken as recognition of the United Mine Workers of America" finally ere. ated such confusion that a motion to adjourn prevailed.

sue in the campaign that we have not met with fearlessness from the tariff to the trusts. He says that every day we seek new, issus and shift the ground of debate
 This is not again in accordance with the facts. Every issue he has raised have met; and I have met it fairly by quoting his position, by stating it exactly and then by answering it. ] nave shifted the ground of debate only when he has shifted The trouble has been that as soon as l have gotten on his ground he realizes that he cannot meet me, and hastily jumps to my position'
 In the case of great corporations like the Standard Oil Colonel Roose- welt said he believed the control of tn government should be supreme.
 As long as the Standard Oil com pany behaved itself" he continued, no interference whatever would be had with it. But if the Standard Oil company consistently misbehaved it. self, the government authorities should appoint a receiver and run the con cern until they received practical as- surance that the directions of the gov ernment thereafter would be complied wiht; and if any man high up in the Standard Oil company behaved afetr the manner of Morse, the banker, the government would treat him as it treated Morse-and if were ill power, would not pardon him afterwards.
 MT. Wilson's position as regards the trusts and all industrial questions is precisely like that of MT. Buchanan in 1860 towards the dissolution of the Union
 "Mr. Buchanan said that the union ought to be preserved. and then added that there was not any way to pre- serve it. He stated that secession was unconstitutional but also all methods for putting down secession were unconstitutional. MT. Wilson says that it is good to have fine pur- poses for helping labor and regulating the trusts, but he is against every practical expedient toward that end. Mir Wilson is the Buchanan of the present industrial situation in the United States
 At Ottawa. Colonel Roosevelt said that W. H. Thompson, democratis can didate for United States senator from Kansas. had uttered a deliberate falsehood" in saying that the Roose- welt campaign fund in 1904 amounted to $l6,000000.
 J. R. Burton, formerly a republican United States senator, Colonel Roose- welt said he had been informed. was democratic candidate for state sen ator. He said that under his direc- ton the department of justice had prosecuted Mir Burton fin connection. l think, with a get-rich-quick scheme, and that he had been sent to prison.
 Mir. Burton Is now running on the democratic ticket for reform" he adj- ed, ''in support of Mir. Wilson I like to see the company they gather to- gether."
 Colonel Roosevelt left tonight for Emporia, Kas.. where he will spend Sunday with Wm. Allen White, pro- gressiye national committeeman.

 Taken Until Monday Morning.

opened the controversy when he made
 a motion for delay until Monday
 before beginning the taking of ey- idence, and said,
 We want to expedite this matter all We possibly can, but we want to pro ceed in seeming manner. l wish to say this, that there is not the least doubt that we will not be able to
 conclude this hearing today. Further
 more, wish to say that the district attorney of New York county. nor his
 associate, have conferred with me
 about this matter in any way concern ing the time set for this hearing. Since arriving here Mir. Commissioner | have ascertained that there are one or more material witnesses in this mat ter who are not here, and are not in reach of this court room, but suppose l may call them this afternoon or ! evening. I realize the order, or com
 mission, does not authorize the taking i of any witnesses not in the commits sion except upon stipulation with the district attorney. but it seems to me
 that stipulation should be entered into authorizing the examination of 1 the other witnesses an dtheir testi- 1. mony be returned with this commits sion. Now. if the district attorney is willing to stipulate that these witness es be examined and included in the commission, l am perfectly willing to be ready at an early day. We can begin in the morning and We can finish in one day, or proceed into the even
 ing until same is completed. If the
 district attorney is unwilling to agree to this stipulation and we will then have to prepare papers for another commission, and we can mafie tham so strong that no judge would be justi- fled in denying same. 1 suggest that this hearing be set for one day next week, we shall be ready by Monday or Tuesday Monday morning and we shall really save time by it"
 Mir. Whitman answered.:
 ''Mr. Commissioner before wish ta consider entering into any such agree ment with regard to his witnesses. shall require that he file proper affidavit |. have not the slightest doubt about his making it plenty strong. But all of the witnesses are here, and the presence of counsel is unnecessary. It Is the duty of she NOuiutSSlOuA tO cAolithc thr httHN@'r es'
 MT. Hart: T am surprised that the district attorney should say that .ne presence of counsel Is unnecessary. considering the fact that he and his able deputies have been sojourning in this state so long and so pleasantly.
