Claims of the Prisoners.

"0Aey waived extradition and returned
Volt ntarily to Sacramento. To Assistant
District Attorney r. +. Atkinson, of
Sacramento; William johnson and Al
thur D. Ryan, of the detective force OF
Sacramento, they admitted the foregoing
facts. but they all claimed that their pur-
pose was not an immoral one and that
. there had been no Illicit carnal inter-
Il course among any of them on the trip or
after arrival at Reno.
1T appears that the young men claimed
TO be unhappy in their marital relations;
they had become attached 10 these girls.
and as their intimacy had become known
in Sacramento and as one of the papers
was about to print a 'scandalous story
they decided that 1t would be best for ali
concerned to leave the country for time,
until the affair had blown over; that
after residing for the statutory period
(six months) required by the Nevada
law they would secure divorces from
their wives and marry these girls.
The girls were Intercepted at con-
siderable length by Mr.. Atkinson. but in
sisted that there had never been anything
that was improper though there had
been much that was imprudent, in their
relations with the young men. Some of
Miss Warringtons clothes were found in
the room occupied 10y Digs and some of
Miss Norris clothes were in Caminetti's
room.
eff the story of the girls is true. II is
indeed an exceptional state of affairs.
"Caminetti is the son Of a State Sena-
tor. and all of the four are prominent in
q
deal Of publicity was gwen the affair.
and the friends OF the wives, as well as
those of the two girls were greatly in
censed against the young men.
.Informations were filed against Can't
netti and Diggs charging them with vio-
lating the white slave traffic act. There
will be a hearing before the United States
Commissioner the latter part of this week
unless defendants waive extradition, and
the matter will be presented TO the grand
Jury by the United States attorney. who
requests the assistance OF this ONCE in
investigating the matter, and, unless
otherwise advised. ] will give the matter
attention.

YOUNG EDISON AN INVENTOR.
He Designs Bomb For Hostile Ships,
but II Acts shabby.

Theodore Edison. The fourteen-year
old son OF Thomas A. Edison. was ex-
p%erimentng with explosives recently
in an effort TO invent a bomb that
would Goat abont on the water and ex'
plode with tremendous effect whenever
1t happened to be touched by a hos
tile vessel. Friendly vessels would. Of
course, avoid touching the bomb.
10 Thcodore'S mind the best way TO
shape up the device would be 70 in
close it in an air tight bottle and put
the bottle in n casing Of cork. so that
1t would be sure not TO sink. He Ind
proceeded US far us mixing the explo-
sive aud depositing it IN the glass bot
tie when the explosive went of. The
odore had the bottle in his hand. and
the pieces Of glass penetrated the hand.
The hoy is not going to suffer per-
manently from his wounds. but Mrs.
Edison has decreed that bis future ex
perimenta With explosives shall DO un
der the supervision OF his father.

rae cHINEsE REpueLIc.

The Cleveland Plain Dealer has
the following to say of the announce
ment last week by Secretary Bryan
of xthe intention of the United states
government to recognize the lew
Chinese Republic:
Secretary Bryan's definite an
nouncement to the diplomatic repre-
sentatiyes that the United States will
formally recognize the Chinese repub-
Iicaanext Tuesday makes certain an
act.of international justice which has
been expected ever since the repud-
iation of dollar diplomacy in China
and Americas withdrawal from the
CONCERT of exploiting powers. BY max
ing the announcements in advance
and by inviting the other powers to
gfSe recognition at the same time the
American government precludes the
possibility of any charge Of precipi.
fancy or Of endeavoring to gain I'm.
der, advantage.
HILNtt3 GOAihlttit AAlOji VI IAN BihS
has. demanded the recognition OF the
Chinese republic by the civilized GOV
ernments. Even TO the blindest il
has long been apparent that the re-
public has come to stay, that Chinese
Imperialism il dead beyond any hope
of resuscitation. But Il has pleased
the poyers maintain the action that
esaepublic is only . makeshift, tenn
porary affair, They have protested
fear of its inability TO provide a stable
administration. SO they have declin-
ed TO recognize il at all. and have
found in this policy an excellent aid
to spoliation. Robbing China OF ter
ritpry and forcing loans upon her
could not be accomplished with SO
brazen a pretense Of b%eneyolence
were her government recognized as
even a theoretical equal among equals.
at has long been clear that China
has two alternatives republic or
anarchy. Even with this apparent
the powers have withheld d strength
enjhg hand from the republic. aud
have, indeed. sought to weaken it.
The, policy of he powers has been
dictated by callous s~elfishness, and
has, been m~itigated by no honest re-
gatH for the welfare of China and the
Chinese. 1t is less than shamefu1
that the United States was so long
a partner. sA@
THE withdrawal OF this ;tntry
from the international syndicate OF
usW;ers was merely the prelude to
formal recognition. 1t is to the cred.
it OF the Wilson administrator that
no,time has been lost, that the grayest
mistake of the frequently admirable
for9ign policy of the preceding admin.
istisltion has been recitifed in the
most thorough manner.
without doubt the effect on China
viii be Immediately beneficial, Yuan
Shh Kai, oeasing to be provisional
president and assuming The more sol.
id dignity of constitutional head OF
the. republic, will find himself meas
urably strengthened by the recogni-
ton of even one great power, and by
the greater consideration which must
be grud iingly accorded by the other
governments"
