exploits Of NJ. s. Kim, a Korean pris-
oner at the county jail, yesterday a.
ternoon. T. Suzumoto was preparing
an affidavit In which he charges the
Korean with fraud and mIsrepresenta-

a half interest In his pig ranch at
Moiliii, and 1t Is in order to avoid
any claim the latter may make on
this interest that the affidavit was
sworn to and recorded in the bureau

to Suzumoto, Kim told him II he
would sign the instrument be could
obtain his parole, and that he would
tnereupon invest $1,000 IN the ranch.
The instrument was signed Dec. II,
1912, and recited that Kim had obtain
ed his interest In the ranch March
2, 1908, for consideration Of s400.
The affidavit filed yesterday after
noon states that the reason It is made
is to give notice that Kim has no In

WASHINGTON, d. c., Sept. IA
fight before the caucus OF Democrat
ic senators In opposition to placing
sugar on the free list was made by
senator Newlands, of Nevada. 1t was
hopeless from the outset, and prose
cuted simply to save the face OF
the Senator with his constituents at
home. A special caucus was held to
permit the fight Before entering, 1t
Mr.. Newlands announced that he
would support the pending tariff bill
without reference to the outcome OF
his contest This preliminary state
ment removed all interest from the
proceedings.
Just before the caucus assembled.
Senator Newlands gave out an author
lied interview indicating his opinions
and outlining the lines on which he
would make bis address to the caucus
in proclaiming his attitude, Senator
Newlands said:
"As to sugar, my views are un-
changed. None Of our insular posses
sions can compete with Cuba in su-
gar production. We should therefore,
stop short of such a reduction as will
bring disaster in Hawaii. Porto Rico
and the philippines. We ,can ac-
complish this by maintaining mod.
crate revenue duty. So also, with the
beet sugar industry of the west. The
production of alfalfa and beets will
be the main industries of our irrigated
regions, where the success of the gov
ernment irrigation projects depends
largely upon beet growing as form
Of intensive cultivation necessary to
the development of the soil by rota-
tion of crops. No contention is made
for any high protective duty; the ulti-
mate duty should not exceed one-half
cent pound-the duty which prevails
in England. France and Germany. 1t
will be productive Of revenue and at
the same time would save an import
ant western industry from injury and
our insular possessions from prostra-
ton.
Il can not see why we should fix
duty of one-half cent pound on
rice and deny it on sugar, nor why
we should impose duty upon wheat,
rice, barley, oats, eggs and chickens,
and refuse a moderate revenue duty
on sugar. Sugar is to be placed on
the sacrificial altar because of the
crimes of the sugar refiners, known
as the Sugar Trust Their operations
have disgusted the country and make
the very name of sugar detested; but

PROSECUTIONS
WITNESS AIDS
THE Defense

Jumping up and down on the court
room floor and finally falling down,
sprawling on her back just as she de-
clared she had done more than
year ago when she was carrying, her
baby sister. little Man Pau, an IL
year-old Chinese girl, gave graphic
recital andl dldemonstration in the pres
ence of Circuit Judge Robinson and
the jury this morning, in the case of
her father and mother, who are ac-
cused of numbering the infant.
Chun Kim Sut and his wife, Chun
wong Shee, were indicted on charge
of infiicting wounds on their two
months-old baby on July 29, 1912,
that resulted in the child's death at
the hospital two days later
In the examination at the hospital
and at the inquest a number of se-
we're bruises were found on the in
fant's face and body, and so far as
known no witnesses were found to
say that they had seen the parents in
flict abuse or punishment on the baby.
The parents at first professed ignor-
ance of the cause of the bruises, but
eventually made the defense, that the
child had received them by falling
from the sofa and by being dropped
by the little sister in the yard while
she was carrying it around. The case
aroused considerable interest at the
time, because of the apparent mys-
terry shrouding the actual cause OF
death.
Though called to the witness chair
by the prosecution, Man Pau, the girl
who had helped care for the baby,
proved a remarkably strong witness
for the defense. She spoke quite
freely through the interpreter, giving
a frank, conerent, straightforward
narrative of the accidents which she
said her baby sister had experienced
the few days prior to her death.
According to her story, Man Pau's
childish playfulness probably was
the cause of many of the bruises
found on the body of her little sister.
She said that on Sunday evening, a
few days before the baby died, she
was carrying the infant on her back
Chinese fashion while playing with
some other children on a wooden
bridge near her home, and that while
she was jumping up and down she
fell twice, dropping backward a dis
tance of about three feet onto some
stones strewn over the ground.
After the first fall she said the baby
began crying, and she Immediately be-
gan jumping up and down to quiet 1t,
and in doing this she stumbled and
fell again, in much the same manner
as before. In both instances. she as
serted, the infant received the brunt

JULIUS ASCH
in LINEFOR
A REPRIMAND

City and County Jailer Julius Asch
Is to be given a reprimand by the
civil service commission, which is also
the police commission.
A meeting of the commission last
night was followed by the statement
this morning that the members are
going to look into the circumstances
surrounding the borrowing OF $3.50
by the jailer from one OF his own
prisoners, w. s. Kim. Asch admitted
the transaction on the witness stand
in district court yesterday during
kim's hearing,
The commission apparently does
not believe that Asch realized what
he was doing in accepting money
from prisoner who was known to
be receiving special favors from the
head of the Jail. But the commission
thinks reprimand is distinctly in
order and it is stated that Asch will
get It
Chairman Wirtz of the commission,
when asked this morning about the
commissions proposed action, con-
firmed the report.
He also said Lnat one Of the rules
adopted by the commission last night
prevents prisoners from borrowing
money from members Of the police
department, but that It had not been
thought necessary to prevent jailers
borrowing from the prisoners. such
an act is unheard of-or was until
Jailer Asch's statement" said the
chairman.

OF the blow, as she fell on her back
and the baby was between her and the
ground. She did not notice whether
the child was bruised.
She said she did not tell her par.
ents of this, fearing reprimand, and
kept the secret of the accident until
after her father, following the death,
had been released from Jail. Then,
on his urgent pleading and promise
of immunity from punishment, she
said she told him the story.
Man Pau also averred that few
days after the accidents at the bridge,
the baby had fallen from the sofa
while she was supposed to be tending
it. She said she. did not see it fall
because she was playing. but heard
It's cries and then picked it up.
Other witnesses who testified to-
day were DR.. Chu Fong, who attend
ed the infant at the hospital; Chung
Hee, son of the accused parents:

and Deputy Sheriff Charles H. Rose.
