He recalled the railroad wreck in Michigan last week, in which a large number of émigrants were killed, and as- #erted that these cmigrants were no doubt under contract to work in California, to which state they were enroute when their lives were erushed out. Speaking of the Chinese exclusion act Mr Mefwesney sald the Japanese should also be excluded from the United States, because they are more undesirable than are the Chinamen. 1In conclusion he said that the immigration laws should be revised and re- constructed from the beginning by experts.

Mase., Dec. 6.—Mise Jane Toppan of Lowell stood up in the superior courtroom and heard the judges’ indlotment charging her with murdering three persons whom she had been engaged to nurse back to health, but who had died under her charge and, according to, the indictment, by her hand. There are three fndictments, one charging her with the death of Mrs. Mary Gibbs, a second with tho death of A. P. Davis, both of Cataumet, and the third with that of Mrs. Genevieve Gordon of Chi- cago. All allege that the cause was the administration of polsonous drugs, ten grains of morphine or atropine or mor- phine and atropine together, or by some polson unknown to the jury For ten minutes the woman stood tightly clutehing the rail while the clerk read the indictment charging her with the murder ot Mrs. Gibbs. At langth Miss Toppan's coun- sel spared her further embarrassment by walving the reading and all that remalned wus for her to plead. Three times she was asked If she was gullty of the murder and three times she replied in low voice, “Not gullty.” After the woman had entered her plea counsel asked that the state appoint coun- sl for her, and Chief Justice Mason, who presided, sald ho would take the matter under wdvisement. Miss Toppan was then led away to her cell, where she will re- main until some time early next spring, when she will be given a trial by jury. MOLINEUX STILL INDICTED Made by Attor- the Court Denles Motion neys to Dism! Charge. NEW YORK, Dec. 6.—Judge Newberger, in the court of general sessions this after- moon, handed down a decision denying a motion to dismiss the indictment for mur- der against Roland B. Molineux. The mo- tion was to quash the indictment, or, as an alternative, for leave to inspect the minutes of the grand jury. Both applications were denled. The attorneys for Molineux maintain that the evidence adduced before the grand jury from what is known as the Barnett letters was Improper under the decision of the court of appeals setting aside the convic- tion of Molineux. The judge, in denying the motlon, sald tho court of appeals had power to direct & final judgment and that it had exercised this power by directing that a mew trial should take place. As to the application for an Inspection of the minutes, Judge Newberger held that that branch of the motion had been dis- posed of adversely by Judge Blanchard on the application made befofe him by the defendant. No leave having been obtained to remew the motion, and no new facts having been stated, it could not be en- tertained at this time.

It calls for a less rigid in- spection of horses Intended for the govern- ment and suggests the appointment of a committee of four army men and elght horse breeders to act as judges at shows where horses shall be exhibited for army service, In speaking of the resolution Mr. Patter- son declared that the unneceasary severity of government inspectors in selecting horses s shown in the fact that England bas bought 13,000 horses and mules for use in South Africa, while the United States, having advertised for 33,000 animals, ha been able to get only 3,000 head. The re- port of the retiring executive committee, in which the work of the officers of the as- soclation Is praised, and which calls for an Increase In assessments of members of cents for every 1,000 head of live stock rep- resented, was adopted unanimously. An interesting feature of the forenoon session was the impromptu speech of Sec- rétary Maxwell of the irrigation congresa. He sald water was the very root of success- ful cattle raising and told of ways of get- ting water. Chairman Springer followed with a description of how he secured an abundance of water on a ranch, the previ- ous owners of which were reputed to have starved owing to their inability to get drink for their cattle. A. H. Dawson sald he was from the bad lands of South Dakota and dwelt on the necessity of not crowding too much stock on the ranges.

CATTLE BREEDERS' TROUBLE Temporary Injunction Issned Awalnst Kxecutive Committee of Awnocia be announced to- CHICAGO, Dec. 6.—A temporary injunc- tion was {ssued by Judge Thrill today, re- straluing Charles Gudgell, W. B. Clough and Thomas Clark, members of the execu- tive committee of the American Hereford Cattle Breeders' association, from exercising and performing acts Inctdent (o the trans- action of the business of the association. The fojunction was granted upon a pe- tition filed in the court by T. F. B. Sotham of Chillicothe, Mo., and Charles H. Smith of Fayette, Mo., both members of the as- soclgtion, who allege that the executive committee has illegally usurped the powers of the board of directors of the assoclation and has conducted its affairs to suit them- selves. The complainants declare Gudgell has re- fused to permit the inspection of the books of the association and has permitted vouch- ers representing the expenditure c. large sums of money pald out by the treasurer during the last two years to be destroyed, so that it is now impossible to determine whether the books of the assoclation show that its money has been honestly accounted for. The tnjunction proceedings are sald to be the outgrowth of a disagreement in the assoclation in which thero have been two prominent factions, the one headed by Gudgell and the second by Sotham. The latter, it 18 claimed, are opponents of Frank Rockefeller, former president of the assoclation. Rockefeller fs a brother of John D. Rockefeller.

Blackmon, Oswego, Montana, had a con- clusive experience in the effects of' coffee on her eyes. She says, “I have used coftes since a child, but a short time ago my eyes began to grow weak, and the least exertion, such as reading or sewing would cause shooting paine and wavy lines of light so that I could see but little else for minutes at & time “This alarmed me and I earnestly sought the cause of the trouble. Someone told me that coffee sometimes affected the eyes. 1 at once decided to quit it and see if 1 would be benefited, but I must have some- thing to take the place of coffee, for I wanted to modify, as much as possible, the sacrifice of glving It up. “So I decided to try Postum for myself.

Committes URGES SPEEDY ACTION BY THE SENATE Says Matter Requires Immedinte At- tention and Hope Expressed that it Wil De Passed On in This Session. WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.—The senate com- mittee on foreign relations today voted to report favorably the new Hay-Pauncefote treaty, providing for the construction of an isthmian canal. The committee was in session nearly two hours and went over In detall the pro- visions of the convention. No votes wero cast against it, but it was criticised very sharply by Senators Money and Bacon, who found in it many of the objections which they urged against the old treaty. They took especial exception to the provision continuing n force the neutrality provision of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty and also made abjection to the clause specially authorizing the United States to police the canal as placing a limitation upon the power of this country to absolutely control it. Object to Neutrality Clause, The contention was made that the effect of the treaty as sent to the senate would be to deprive the United States of control of the canal in case of war. Especial at- tention was called to the provision in the preamble of the pending treaty, reserving Article 1" of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty from the repeal provision of the new treaty. The portion of this article of the old treaty, to which especial objection was made, reads as follows “In granting, however, their joint protec- tion (o any such canals or rallways as are by this article specified, It 18 always uader- stood by the United States and Great Britain that the parties constructing or owning the same shall impose no other changes or conditions of trafic than the aforesaid governments shall approve of as Just and equitable, and that the same canals or rallways, being open to the citizens and subjects of the United States and Great Britain on equal terms, shall also be open on like terms to the citizens and subjects of every other etate which is willing to grant thereto such protection as the United States and Great Britain engage to afford.” Did Not Vote Againat Report. Senators Money and Bacon did not go to the extent of voting against the report of the treaty and they acknowledge that they are anxious to see it ratified, because of thelr great desire to have the canal bullt. Still, they Insisted that the treaty as It now stands is very objectionable in case of the contingency of war. Semator Frye presided over the meeting and authorized Senator Lodge to report the treaty to the senate on Monday next, In case there should be an executive session on that day. It also was the sense of the committee that the consideration of the treaty should be pressed as epeedily as possible In the sen- ate, some senators expressing the hope that the action might be secured before the ad- journment of the holidays. The committes also voted to recommend that the injunc- tlon of secrecy be removed from the treaty.

NEVER IN HIS TRUE LIGHT Rabhi re mon Saya the Jew Has Been Misrepresented. “Literature, by no means the least of the forces of civillzation, has been very unfai to the Jew," sald Rabbl Abram Simon in a lecturo at Temple Israel last night. “It has wielded power agalnst us as has no other force. - It may be true, as Emerson says, that to be great is to be misunder stood, but while not aMrming that tho % were necessarily great, 1 do maintain that those of the middle ages were mis understood. And history, as the mirror of | the times, reflocts those impressions that prevalled in those ages when all the black plagues were laid at the door of the Jew. To plays and in novels the Jew has fig ured, but never in his true light. Shylock 1s no more the typical Jew as to avarice than is Nathan the typical Jew as to wie- dom, and Zangwill In his Ghetto stories h misse] correct portrayal of the modern J as far as has Emily Wolf of San Francisco, herself a Jowess. “But {n Willlam Ludlow, himself a Chris- tian, I feel that there has now arlsen one who has given us In ‘Deborah,’ in the novel of that name, a Jewish heroine cor- rectly portrayed and one, the first, of whom we may be really proud. And in Judas, of the same book, a hero whom we may ap- prove with equal freedom.” Dr. Simon (hen outlined the story of the Jewess who loved and was won by Dion leader of the Greeks at that period, 165 B. C., when the struggle was bitterest be- tween the remnant of the original Jews and those who had allled themselves with the Greeks and adopted the customs and drees of the latter. Judas, commander of the Jews, loved Deborah, but gave her up to Dion after the latter had pledged loyalty and submission to Judas, even though Judas as king could take Deborah for his royal consort Dr. Simon then sald: “What {s the moral? It is that Jew and Christian, still separated in hatred when they should be united in love can only be reconcilod when all Christians will be like Dion, all Jews like Judas and all Jewesses like Deborah, each recognizing in those to- ward whom they have so long cherlshed ill- feeling the virtues that each certainly pos- sesses.” LIFE IN Walter €.

He declared that the Island possessions. of the | United States have the finest climate in the world and stated that in seven years residence in Honolulu he had never known the thermometer to rise about 89 degrees and bad never known it to fall below 56 degrecs. “I have lived under ernments In Honolulu," sald Mr. Weedon. “I have been Intimately associated with the persons who have ruled the island.

At the recent election the home rule party was in the majority. “In & yeaf Honolulu has grown from a city of 39,000 to a city of 45,000 people,” sald the speaker. “The increase of popu- lation throughout the Islands has been nearly 42 per cent.
