FORCIBLY SEARCH
AN AMERICAN ship
United States Steamer XeaIandia is
Ransacked by Party From Eng
lish Cruiser.

Washington, D. C., Nov. 1O.-The
American steamer Zealandia was fore
foly searched by a party from Brit
ish cruiser last week while lying in the
port of Progreso, Mexico. The Ameri-
can consul there reports the cruiser
now is outside, presumably awaiting
to seize the ship.
On the face Of such a report as the
consul sent, even though incomplete
the official conclusion here is that the
British naval authorities not only vio-
lated Mexican neutrality but far ex-
ceeded their rights in forcibIy search
ing an American ship in neutral port
What the searchers of the steamer
found the American consul did not re-
port but inasmuch as he reported a
British cruiser lying in wait it was
supposed here they found something
which they believed would justify
further action when the Zealandia puts
to sea.
The forcible searching of an Ameri-
can ship in a neutral port probably
would constitute one of the most SER
ious issues TO arise between the Unit
ed States and Great Britain in the
controversy now on over the British
nayy's conduct toward American ship
ping.

T0JapParty

Shanghai, China, Nov. l0.--Admiral
Using Juicheng. governor of the
Shanghai district, who was assassi-
mated early today, while motoring to
the Japanese consulate to attend the

who headed the Chinese naval commits
sion on visit to the United States in
the summer of 1910.
The admiral was in fun uniform.
When the automobile in which, he was
riding slowed down. owing to a couges-
ton of traffic, one assassin threw a
bomb half-heartedly at the machine,
evidently fearing to iniure the large
crowd of foreigners watching the pro-
cession of carriages and motor cars
going toward the consulate. The bomb
missed its mark.
The admirals assailant was then
joined by another man and both ran
after the automobile and jumping the
.footboards, emptied the magazines of
their reyolvers at the governor and his
secretary.
The admiral received Is wounds, in
Guiding five in the neck. Both legs
were broken. He died soon after reach
ing the hospital. The automobile was
riddled with bullets.
After a violent struggle two police
| inspectors arrested the assassins, who
were carrying 200 rounds of ammuui-
ton.

JAPAN EMPEROR
is CONSECRATED
Yeshihit0 Enthr0ned as Head of Far
Eastern Empire--Americans See
Coronation.

Kioto, Japan, Nov 10, (7:32 p, nh
In Kioto the ancient capital of Japan,
Yoshihito was consecrated emperor
today.
For days the weather had been wet
and gloomy. At the moment Yoshi-
hito bowed down before the ancestral
sun goddess today, the rays of the
sun flashed over the mountain, dissi-
pating the clouds. According to legend
the sun goddess in prehistoric ages
emerged from her rocky cave and filled
the whole universe with glory. The
appearance of the sun today is inter
preted by the people of Japan as a
good omen Of an suspicious reign of
the new emperor and Of the destiny
of the empire.
This afternoon when Yoshihito was
enthroned, foreigners who witnessed
the coronation were deeply impressed.
American women were particularly in
terested in the Japanese noblewomen,
In ancient caste robes. The American
ambassador. George ". Guthrie, ex-
pressed himself as moved by the sol
Iemnity of the occasion.
While the emperor was speaking this
afternoon. Rear Admiral Winterhalter
was seized WITH dizziness and forced TO
retire. His Illness was not serious.
Premier Okuma. who is old and in
firm. was assisted by three retainers
as he mounted TO his place before the
throne to respond to the emperor's
address.

Bryan Clasps
Surprise At
Use of Bible

Washington. Nov 10.--Former Sec
rotary Bryan today added a chapter
to his disagreement with President
Wilson over the question of national
defense by issuing a formal statement
in comment on the presidents recent
quotation from the scriptures in sup
port of his advocacy of military pre-
paredness, The same quotation had
been used by Mr. Roosevelt in a recent
published article.
1T is not surprising that Mr. Roose-
welt should consult the old testament
rather than the new" said Mr. Bry-
ans statement, because he classes
Christ with the mollycoddles, but why
should the president, Presbyterian
elder, pass over the new gospel, in
which love is the chief cornerstone,
and build his defense on 4 passage in
the old testament, written at time
when the children of Israel were sur
rounded by enemies?
1T is all right for Mr. Roosevelt to
sound the trumpet, because all colors
are red to him. He sees armies march
ing against us from every direction,
but the president is a man of peace
and he is In a position to know that
no one is threatening to attack us. It
is surprising, first, that in looking up
bible authority he should ignore the
teachings of Christ, and second, that
he should select a passage that re-
fers, not TO preparation against mag
mary dangers, but immediate action
to meet an attack actually made
What the world needs today is Pen
tecust, not an Armageddon.
