 Bad Weather Delays Road Work.
 Continued bad weather is playing havoc with the plan of the street builders to advance their work in Put nam. The impossible weather con- ditions of Monday again completely tied up the working force and noth- ing could be done during the day. One of the men connected with the work said that 30 to 40 per cent more than has been done would have been ac- complished by this time if it were not for the many bad days since the contract commenced

JAPANESE
PREMIER
RESIGNS

TOXIC, FEB. 11.-FOrced by
renewal of the fierce rioting OF
yesterday in which six persons
were killed and scores wounded.
Prince Katsura formally resigned
today the premiership of Japan.
Katsura's formal resignation
today is the greatest blow ever
dealt to the prestige of the mikado
by the ever-growing republican
sentiment of Japan.
The withdrawal of the premier
came in response to turbulent
conditions which followed an epi-
sode without parallel in the his
tory of the country. Katsura
practically was forced to resign
some days ago when the constitu-
tional party, headed by Marquis
Saonjji, forced a vote of lack of
confidence in the government by
the diet.
More than 200 agitators were
arrested today after hot fighting
in the streets with the police ana
soldiers.
1t is expected that now that
Katsura has admitted defeat and
has formally handed in the resig-
nation of his cabinet. the people
will be satisfied with their victory
and that the rioting will cease
unless some government measure
is taken which again stirs the pop-
ulace to resort to mob law.

Manager Bean Makes No Offer.
Manager Bean said he had no
proposition to offer. He said 1t
was generally conceded that street
railway facilities were needed on
the flats and that the company
had long been studying the matter
but that it was not an attractive
proposition at present from a
street railway standpoint as 1t
meant big crows twice day with
little business between times. He
said as the city owned the bridge
and the tracks on it it was up to
the city to say whether they want
ed to let the company go over
and if so on what terms. He said
II the city would make a proposi-
tion the company would be glad
to consider it.
CITIZENS TALK.
Then the citizens began to talk.
George Petty said the city
should grant no franchise but
build the line and then lease it to
all roads that anted to go over
IL.
Frank Ross said the city should
keep control of this new outlet
from the city. He urged straight
municipal ownership and the
crowd cheered. eve want NUM-
cipal lined owned and operated
between Tacoma and Seattle and
owned by the two Cities" said
Ross as he showed how 80 mile
line can be constructed to make
the trip of 45 minutes from city
to city.
Frank Meredith, owning prop
erty around Dash Point, said the
residents would give the city a
fine bonus If they would build
over there and open up that ter
ritory.
A. H. Garretson was for
straight municipal ownership of
the line. He said the city could
raise the money If they had to go
to the people with the securities.
He agreed to take 500 worth of
tickets himself.
G. Sem said he would take
bonds from the city without in
terest until the road paid profit.
DIR. J. F. Libby wanted the city
to build and operate the road. He
wanted no more to do with the
cid company but desired the city
to get ready to take over other
franchises as we'll. He thought
the city could afford to operate
the line at loss for a few years
If necessary.
Mayor Seymour was for build
ing the line and leasing it to the
company for operation. Mills
rather leaned this way also.
Manager Bean said If possible
the company might change it's in
terurban and come in over the
bridge If the city allowed it to do
SO. He said that was the ideal
way of entering the city.
The temper of both the citizens
present and the commissioners
themselves was such that it was
seen 1t would be useless to talk
about granting franchise to the
Stone-Webster company. The
commissioners accordingly got to-
gether and decided they would
build the line themselves.
AS to the question of operation
the general talk of both commits
sioners and citizens was that the
city would demand at least cent
a passenger for going over the
bridge

LONDON, Feb. I1.-With
death staring him in the face,
with no possible suCCor at hand,
Captain Robert +. scott, British
polar explorer who perished after
reaching his goal on Jan. fS,
1912, wrote with dying hand the
story of his quest into the White
Antarctic that all the world
might know. Found beside his
stiffened corpse when rescue
came too late, Scott's story was
cabled here today from New Zea-
land and given to the world un-
der his laconic title, Message to
the Public"
THE MESSAGE
"The causes of this disaster
are not due to faulty organiza-
tion, but to misfortune in all the
risks that had to be undertaken.
First. the loss of pony trans
port in March, 1911, Obliged me
to start later than | had intend
ed and Obliged limits of stuff
transported to be narrowed.
Second, the weather through
out the outward journey, espe-
cially long gale in SO degrees
south, stopped us, and the soft
snow encountered in the lower
reaches of Beardmore glacier
again reduced our pace.
