THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, JULY 8, 1897. APANESE WANT WAR Very Hostile Tone of the Chrysanthemum Press. WOoULD TAKE HONOLULU RIGHT AWAY, Then Overrun Hawaiian Isles Vith an Army of 100,000 Fighting Men. DOLE MAKES FIRM REPLY TO TOKIC’S DEMANDS. Minister Shimamura Astonished at the Attitude of the Senate. HONOLULU, Hawair, June 3 ter Cooper sent his iast and final answer to the Japanese demands two days ago. In his communication the Minister went caretully over the ground, waking up the demands and inquiries of the Japanese Government and giving substantial rea- sons wby he cannot view them in the same light as the authorities at Tokio. Ihe Minisier quotes abundant authori- precedents of other Governmen y the United States, in supporto! on, and concludes with a state to the effect tnat hisdelay in ma answer was caused by the large of time required to gather tLe in- formation Chinese immigration and raneous matters asked for by the se Minister. The fullest information s given on all these matters on the main questions at issue, viz : indemnity and the assurance that uno further rejec- tion of Japanese shatl take place on sim lar grounds, Minister Cooper reiterates his refusal to entertain them in polite, but exceedinzly firm, language. He does not expect to hear from Minister Shimamura again until bis answer has been submitted to Tokio. . Minister Shimamura says the answer is extremely unsatisfactory, so unsatisfac- 1at nothing remained for him but tosend it to his Government and await structions. [t isnow announced that Counselor na, who came here on the Naniwa h such a fourish of trumpets wilt ve for Japan on the Rio Janeiro, sailing v 3, and that be will take with him the 1 answer of Hawail. On his arrival eannounced his intention of remaining in Honolulu until the negotiations were completed. But Mmister Cooper’s an- on othe Japa tory t swer has unmistakably eltered his plans. He announces his intention of returaing Lere on the Coptic of August 15, but bis depend upon the action of the the effect of anexation anese demauds against t derstruck 4t the sudtien: which the matier had been the United States Senate, that he was entirely ata loss to ecture what the effect would be. He hoped that the news of the proposed with ion was not true, and that it would be delayed until the Japanese de- mands against Hawaii should Lave been settled. Hethought the Japanese shouid have been notified by the United States of ther intentions regarding annexation. Minister Shimamura also gives out that the Naniwa will relieved by other vessels, or until the ne- gotiations are completed. bad blood exists between the cre e Naniwa and thos: of the American here. Several imminent between them. The afew at a time and seem to be under orders to avoid American sailors and re- fuse to enter saloons. This doas not pre- their countrymen and get- y bumptious in consequence. The vapers received from Japan by to- day’s steamer show that tha cat is at last ut of the Japanese bag. Japan wants to annex the isiands herself. The Japan Herald is warlike and intends to annex the 1siands whether the United States likes it ornot. Itsays: There is nothing to prevent Japan from landing 100,000 men on the Sandwich Isiands i thirty or forty days, when they decide to do so, end unless the Government of President Dole makes the proper amends, that is pre- cisely what will be most likely to happen.

POLICE CCURT ACT DECLARED INVALID Judge Budd Creates a Small Sensation at Stockton. Says the Tribunal Created to Try Petty Offenders Is Unconstitutional. Supreme Court WIIl Declde the Question In a Friendiy Test Case. STOCKTON, Car, July 7.—Judge Budd created a sensation this morning by up- holding A, L. Levinsky in his contention tbat such a thing asa Police Court does not exist in the city of Stockton. The surprise came in the habeas corpus pro- ceeding in the case of the people vs. L. Giambonini, who was convicted by Judge Rendon, sitting as a city Police Judge, of selling liquor to & minor. He was ten- tence. to pay a fine of §100 or to serve 100 daysin ja A. L, Levinsky advised his client to sur- render himself into cu:tody in order that the constitutionality of the Police Court might be determined, and Giambondni was nominally incarcerated, being re- leased after a few minutes. While Judge Budd to-day in his deci- sion gave it as his opinion that the Police Court was unconstitutional he did not render a decision to that effect, inasmuch as if he had done so there wou!d be no appeal to the Supreme Court. Judge Budd suggested that the attorneys pre. pare to bring the matter before the Su- preme Court. The vrisoner was not di charged, and in order to have the Ap- pellate Court pass upon the case Judge Budd will make an order denying the writ and remanding the prisoner tothe custody of the Sheriff. That ac:ion will be done against the court’s better judgment, but in the interest of all parties, The act of 1891 establishing police courts is Leld to be unconstitutional for the rea- son that it makes a classification different to that made in the genersl law of 1883 in reference to municipal incorporations. The classification of 1891, inasmuch as it does no! apply to all cities, is held b Judze Budd to be special legislation, whicn, of course, is unconstitutional. The court referred to decisions of the Supreme Court in similar cases upholiing that view of the law. Ev'n under that act the court maintained that Stockton did not bave a police court, for under the last gen- eral census this city did not have a popu- Iation of 15,000 peovle, and the act of 1891, upon which this police court was estab- lished, ap-lied only to cities having a population of between 15,000 and 18,000, Mr. Levinsky wiil go 10 San Francisco to-night to take out a writ in the Suprema Court. Should the Supreme Court sus- tain Judge Budd tne city will be in a retty fix. Judgs Rendon hasbeen acting in a dual capacity, as City Justice ana as Police Judge. The ciiy has teen paying him a salary of $2000as City Justice, al- though that is a county office. While he was paid as City Jusiice the city received the benefit of his service as Police Juage, | and the money collected by him as fines for misdemeanor cases was collecied as Police Judge and went into the city treas- | {f the Police Court is knocked out | | Admi's Hs Identiy and Says an Aa-‘ ury. he will still receive his $2000 salaty a« City Justice, which will come out of the city's pocket. but ail the fines collected by him in that capacity will go into the county treasury. UKIAH'S MAYOR WEDS. Themas L' Corothers and Mrs. L. Isabella Reeves United in Mar- rage. UKIAH, Car, July 7.—Mrs, L. Isabelle Reeves of this city was married this morn- ing to Hon. Thomas L. Carothers, Mayor of Ukiah, by Rev. O. L. Barnum. The ceremony took place in the beautiful home of the bride, in the western part of the city. The social prominence of the prin- cipals and the extensive acquaintance and political prominence of Mr. Carothers made the wedding one of the most note- wortny held here for some time. house was garlanded with roses and car- nations, and the decorations were beauti- ful and tasty. After Rev. Mr. Barnum had read the marriage service, all repaired to the wed- ding breakfast, which had been spread in honor of the event. Few had been invited and only immediate relatives were pres- ent. ‘Ihe bride was attired in a gray travel- ing costum+, while the groom wore the custcmary biack. The maids of honor were Miss Edna Reeves and Miss Safa Paine, who were pecomingly attired in pink crepe. The dresses wera low cut, with long lace sleeves and collars of creme lace. Some little romance attaches to the mar- riage of Mr. Carothers and Mrs. Reeves. Up to the time of ihe death of Tapping Reeves, the extensive lumber merchant of this county, Mr. Carothers was his at- torney and confidential adviser, and after Mr. Reeves’ death he continued to act in Ll The rela- tions which began ir a business way grew into the tender feelings which culminated in to-day's wedding. Mr. and Mrs. Carothers left for San Francisco, en route to Salt Lake City, where they will attend the Trans-Missis- sippi Commercial Congress, to which Mr. Carothers has been elected a delegate by the Supervisors of this county. —_— Suicide at Sonorn.

The DOWN A CHIMNEY CAME A BEAR CUB Seattle Wbman Badly Scared by a Strange Visitor. Her Bedchamber Invaded at Night by a Youngster’s Pet Bruin. | Escaping From Its Master, It Falls | Througn a Stovepipe Hole Upon Her Bed. SEATTLE, Wask., July 7.—Shrieks of “help, murder, fire, police,”” and similar cries at about 2 o’ctock this morning, ut- | tered in the shrill voice of a terrified | woman, aroused the policeman ou the Pike-street beat and awakened scores of sleeping citizens in the vicinity of Union | street and Third avenue. The officer ; finally located the eries and ran down Un- | ion street to a lodging-nouse which fronts on Taird avenue, where a woman was | standing in the middle of the sidewalk, yelling at the top of her voice. She was | in rather thin garments, having just arisen from her couch. Her hair was in two braids down ber back and the night- robs she wore wasa decided contrast to the blackness of a rainy Seattle morning, On top of the house from which the | woman had just emerged was a small boy, | while perched on one of the chimneyvs jusu out of the lad’s reach was a bear cub. The blue coat, with the help of the neigh- | bors who found sufficient courage to go | out of doors where such terrib e things | were haopening, finally got the boy and woman together and heard their stories, | The woman stated that she was sound | asleep in room 13 of the lodging-house when a tin covering overa hole wherea ) stove-pipe was once connected with the chimney Wwas suddenly kicked out of place and fell down on the bed, followed by two bricks and a dirty litile ball of far, which the did not at the time recog- | nize as a bear. Bruin brought soot galore and frighiened the woman half out of her wits. A3 soon asthe little bear saw the woman and heard ber shrieks he climbed into the Lole again and went back up the chimney. The boy says the bpear got loose from his bacz vard snd he was awakened by hearing the cub climbing up the side of the house. He put on his clothes and fol- lowed. The bear gained the roof of the lodging-bouse and climbed to the top of the chimney. The boy grabbed at iim and the frightened cub fell into the hole | and fell out at the bottom, his weight | pushing out the tir covering opening in | room 13 i The cub next found himself in company with a varrel of soot and a few brickson a | bed, while beneath him rose a noize and { commotion that left him no choice but to | escape by the way he entered. This the | bear did, climbing up the chimney again. { At the top he perched between two dilem- mas—the boy grabbing for him and the woman yelling below. | " The woman is going to have damages ‘for the 1njury to her bedclothes, which | were once white, and the shock to her nervous system, which has made ber ill. FORSYTHE LIV.NG AT TACOMA. meaa Official Advised the S ealing or Hs Chud. TACOMA, Wasw, July 7.—Professor | Ciarence Chester, spiritualist medium, no longer denies that heis W. G.

He says he will have no | difficuity in showing, 1f it becomes neces- | sary, that the mother is not a proper | person to have the care of the child; and | generaly and circumstantially, contro- verts the statement made by her. Heis now at the Bostwick Hotel and declaims all intention of avoiding any one who| wishes to inquireinto his right to have | control of the boy. Forsythe denies that he agreed to give | | { | up the boy if his wife would not ask for | \alimony in her suit for divorce ana claims | she has no legal ground to obtain a| | divorce from him, though he believes | she will allege desertion in a suit the| papers for which were drawn when he came away. He deciares that, instead, | he repeatedly urged her to join him in | Los Angeles, but she r-fused. He claims that after he returned to San Francisco her conduct became such that he could not live with her. The **horsewhipping” incident occurred, he says, when t ey were driving to San | Francisco Bav, where he was io catch a | steamer for the City. His horse balked | badly and, he says, his wife laughed re- peatedly at him, exasperating him so that he struck her oace with the whip. Lo Grass Fire Near Mill Valley.
