PROMINENT IN GRAFT FIGHT Prisoner Is Hustled Into Auto and Driven Twenty-five Miles Outside of City, Where He Is Put on Board ‘Train for Los Angeles, San Francisco,. 2"~ .. Fremont Older, managing editor of the Bulletin and ‘prominently connected with fihe graft prosecution, was arrested in thlg clty on warrants fssued in los An- {geles und sworn to by Luther Brown, who charges Older with criminal libel. Older was arrested on the street and taken in an automobile to Redwood City, twenty-five miles sonth, where a connection was made with a south- bound train for Los Angeles, on which he was placed in charge of officers from that city. The attempt to take Older to Los Angeles and the methods employed have created a tremendous sensation here on account of Older’s connection with the graft prosecution. Older has been working with Heney, Spreckels, Langdon and Burns in the prosecu- tlon of bribers and bribe takers and through the .vigorous course of his paper has incurred the enmity of all the indicted ones. Luther Brown, who swore to the llbel charge, is a Los Angeles lawyer and detective and has been engaged in the defense of Tirey L. Ford, general counsel of the United Rallroads company, who is now on trial for bribery. Porter Ashe, who is sald to have accompanied the ar- resting party on the train, is also one of Ford’s attorneys, OLD MISTRUST EVIDENT. Colombian Statesman Disc s the Peace Conference. New York ” . av.—General Rafael Uribe-Urive, Colombian soldler, lawyer and diplomat, has arrived in this city from South America. where he has been on a diplomatic mission from Colombia to Ecuador, Peru, Brazil, Ar- gentina and Chile. He was one of the Colombian dele- gates to the Pan-American congress at Rio Janeiro and he said in reply to a question as to the opinion in South America of The Hague conference: “It is, in general, pessimistic. Re- serving my own way of thinking, I will confine myself to the opinions of the Brazilian and Argentine press. It is believed there that the good effec’ . of Mr. Root's trip, regarded as ge - erous and friendly, have been coun- teracted, if not nullified, by the poli- tics of the North American delegation at The Hague and that, following the sentiments inspired by that emirent statesman, there is erident again the { old mistrust. This was caused espe- clally by the ‘bossy manner’ in which | the delegation presented the Drago | doctrine, particularly in its second form. “The United States, they consider, has placed itself at the side of the { great powers of Europe in the project of a permanent tribunal for arbitra- { tion, leaving aside in a certain way { the weak nations of America that thought of counting on the protection of the United States, under whose ! patronage thcy went to the confer- ence.” Grand Duke of Baden Dead. Constance, Grand Duchy of Baden, ~.~ <7 -Grand Duke Frederick of Baden is dead of intestinal inflamma- tion. He was unconscious for many hours before his death.

Portland, Ore,, ~ ¢ _..—"But there Is no regulation barring the entry of eny alien not having a passport from his home government. If such a reg- ulation exists I am not aware of it.” This statement was made by Judge C. E. Wolverton of the United States district court in deciding the case of Captais Haurice Hemet of the French bark St. Louis, who was fined recent- ly by the United States commissioner on & charge of violating the immigra- tion law prohibiting masiers of ves- sels from landing aliens and forbid- ding their admission to this country. The case grew out of the escape of two Japanese sailors from the St. Louis who had signed at Kobe, Japan, for the round trip. Hemet's defense was that the Japanese had no inten- tion of coming to tbis country when they signed for the trip. Captain He- met also asserted that the order is- sued by President Roosevelt last May excluding Japanese and Koreans from this country was in excess of his authority. Judge Wolverton upheld President Roosevelt's order. The court, how- ever, takes exception to section C of rule 21, issued by the commissioner general of immigration, which says if a Japanese or Korean laborer applies for admission (to the contiguous ter- ritory of the United States) and pre- sents no papers it shall be presumed, first, that he did not have any when he left Japan or Korea entitling him to enter the United States, and, sec- ond, that he did have a passport lim- iting to Mexico, Hawaii or Canada. Judge Wolverton ruled that the Jap- anese sallors were not improperly in this country and discharged the de- fendant.
