The preamble to the agreement re- cites that theatrical interests in all large cities have suffered as a result of the indiscriminate “booking” of at- tractions, necessitating some agree- ment between the interests whereby long “jumps’ would be avoided and tours so arranged that there would be no conflict of similar attractions in the same city. The list of theaters an- nounced as under the control of the parties to the agreement and which was to be supplemented by any theater subsequently passing under control of any of the parties in the next five vears, include the Columbia Theater in San Francisco. [ The many theaters named, the agree- ment says, “shall be booked with at- tractions in conjunction with each other; that is to say, no attractions shall be booked in any of the said thea- ters or plaees of amusement (or in any which may be hereafter acquired as aforesaid) which will insist on playing at an opposition theater or place of amusement in any of the cities named (or any which may hereafter come un- der this agreement) unless the party hereto- having the theater or place of amusement in said competitive point shall give his or their consent in writ- ing to permit said attraction to play in the opposition theater or place of amusement.” An agreement to pool all profits is set t forth in the fourth ciause of the instru- ment, and of the net profits it is stipu- lated that Hayman, Frohman, Klaw and Erlanger shall receive 75 per cent and the firm of Nixon & Zimrherman 25 per cent from all the theaters enume- rated.

Shepard declared that Hendricks had refused his client a hearing when the mutualization pnlan was under consideration, although at the same time he was in conference with the attorneys for the soclety’s officers.

He opened a con- versation with Kratz and told him that he was waiting for a man whom he had loaned $100. He said: “1 have just come from Minot, North Dakota, and met this gentleman In Portland. He knew all my people in It geems that his cousin had just died and he was short of ready money to gend the body home. 1 gave him $100 and he promised to be here at eleven o'clock and pay me."” The knowing Kratz at once informed the stranger from Minot that he had been bunkoed. The Minot man, how- ever, offered to bet $50 that his friend was straight. Kratz snapped up the bet. A moment before the stroke of eleven in rushed the man ‘with the bor- rowed $100. Kratz paid the $50 and soon aftérward realized on whom the bunco game had been played. | —————— KANSAS FARMERS VIOLATE THE ANTI-TRUST LAWS Attorney General Renders an Opinion After Making an Investigation - of Case.

The mystery of Vice Admiral Rojest- | vensky’s whereabouts is still unsolved, and speculation on the possibilities is of the keenest.

The Daily Telegraph’s Singapore cor- respondent, cabling under date of April 11, says: “All reports, to the contrary notwith- standing, only one battleship, the Sissoi Veliky, passed here Saturday.

It is a| providential change, ds otherwise the iroops tenting in the mud probably would soon have been subject to sick- ness, even in epidemic form. It is steadily becoming more evident that first calculations as to the Russian losses in the battle of Mukden were ex- aggerated.

According to the same sources 30,000 Japanese landed at Dalny on March 28, and it is reported that six additional divisions are form- ing in Japan to operate against Vladi- vostok and Saghalien. The Manchurian Chinese have adopt- ed an attitude of positive hostility to the Russians. A body of 500 native horsemen fired upon Russian troops at the village of Chendi. and Manchurian militia is said to be taking the field on the side of the Japanese on the Hun | River. The leader, Fulingb, has been | appointed commander of the militia at Kaiyuan, but a force of Chinese regu- lars is stationed along the border of Mongolia with the object of preserving neutrality. The Japanese now occupy the line of Sylzyatji, Changtufu and Katpan- gomu, and the impression prevails here that the direct advance from the south has halted for the present at that line. There were a number of skirmishes last week hetween Russian and Japa- ' nese scouting parties, but no action of serious consequence.

TOKIO, April 1l.—Japan is meet- ing the Russian plan of reorganization and reinforcement of its Manchurian armies with an extensive expedition from its own military .organization. The details;and figures of what seems to be a plan to double the present army units are ecarefully concealed. but it is reliably estimated that by autumn next the total military organ- ization will exceed a million men ac- tually employed in the field. . The new fighting force is roughly estimated at 700,000 men, with dncreases largely in the infantry and artillery, although an enlargement in the cavalry branch also is contemplated. ey e 0 FORMOSAN PORT CLOSED. | | i | | | | Togo May Use Kelung’s Harbor as His Naval Base, | WASHINGTON, April- 11.—Minis- ,ter Griscom at Tokio has cabled the State Department that he has been adviséd of the closing of Kelung to foreign ships until further notice. Ke- ung is a port on the north end of the island of Formosa. It is believed here that the action of the Japanese Government in closing Kelung indi- ‘cates that this port will be used by Admiral Togo as a base for his fleet. e IN PHILIPPINE WATERS. MANILA, April 11.—The British -steamship Empire, just arrived here from Australia, reports that on the night of April 9 she sighted a large war vessel in Basllan Strait, between the islands of Mindanao and ' Basi- lan, which approached close and then disappeared down the coast of Min- danao.

HONOLULU, April 11.—Two hundred and forty Hilo Japanese are looking for the Japanese who advertised the com- ing here of the steamship Centennial to take Japanese laborers to the Pacific Coast. He collected a deposit from each as part of their passage to San Francisco or Seattle, and now they cannot find him nor can they get any information as to when the Centennial is coming. The Centennial was advertised in all the local Japanese papers. She was to have left Hilo on or about April 1, tak- ing Japanese laborers at $25 a head. The agent established himself at Hilo and proceeded to hustle for business, with the result that he soon had a list of 240 Japanese who were anxious to 80 to the coast. CHINESE TAKE WAITES' PLACES Special Dispatch to The Call SPOKANE, April 11.—Despite the presence of the whole male population of Salmo River Valley at the railway station, thirty-two Chinese and Jap- anese, who - heretofore have been afraid to work in the sawmill at Sal- mo, B. C., were safely taken to the plant and are now operating the ma- chines which white men had been run- ning. Their presence means the de- parture of as many white families. Further trouble with the Orientals is feared, as the population is in an ugly mood, the women being particularly savage in denunciation. The Orientals were brought from Nelson, B. C., in charge of two magis- trates and eight or ten provincial po- lice. The array of ‘“bobbies” was enough to awe the white men and the aliens went peaceably to the mill, where. after a slight disturbance, the sole remaining white employe . was kicked out. DISPUTE OVER RICHTS OF WaT SANTA CRUZ, April 11.—Right-of- Way Agent Wilson of the Southern Pacific and a party of surveyors headed by John Rogers. a constructing engineer of repute who is said to be backed by the Western Pacific, are en- gaged in a hot fight for rights of way for a line between Santa Cruz and Pescadero. The Southern Pacific and Rogers’ survey cover practically the same ground, leaving this city near Vue de I'Eau and following the coast line to Waddell Creek. thence over Ben Lomond Mountain into Pescadero. Rogers’ syndicate claims the rights of way from San Francisco south to Pescadero and. maintains that con- struction was begun this summer. 3 Wilson, on the other hand, declares the Southern Pacific will build the coast lfne itself and that Rogers’ syfdicate is only speculating.

REDDING, April 11.—A fire started in the rear of Negley & Auble's black- smith shop in Alturas, Modoc County, yesterday, completely destroyed the shop and two other large buildings, the property of Colonel ompson, editor and proprietor of the Alturas Plain- dealer. The entire stock and fixtures of the newspapef office were completely destroyed, the loss reaching $7000. Neg- ley & Auble suffered a loss of $9000.

Although Venezuelan | legation officials say the text of the dispatch was not included in the mail reaching the legation to-day, and which left Caracas after the answer was de- livered to Bowen, it has become noised amoRg the diplomats that the answer was undiplomatic and almost threaten- ing in wording. The knowledge pos- sessed by certain diplomats here on the | subject indicates clearly that the char- acter, if not the exact text, of the an-| swer has been known for some time to the diplomatic corps in Caracas, and there is reason to believe that several foreign governments already have been advised of Its text. ‘While diplomats who have inquired at the State Department have been in- | formed that’ practically no action will | be taken regarding Venezuela until| President Roosevelt returns from his | Western trip, they also have received | the intimation that if the exact text of | Castro’s answer comprises an insult to | the American Minister it will not pass unnoticed. .

With the skeleton was a semi-petrified wooden gibbet. . Captain Hicks, with his fleet, craised about the Carolina coast, ven- turing sOmetimes as far north as the end of Long Island, preying on New York shippers.

Bristow, special investigator for the President on the future of railway rates, by reason of Government own- ership of the Panama railroad, con- ferred to-day with the Secretary of War. Bristow is reported to hold that Gov- ernment ownership of a steamship line from Colon to New York is an effect ive check on railways and steamship lines doing business with either San Francisco and New York, or with both It can also be said that the Govern- ment proposes to hold on to the steamship line on the East coast is now inclined to equip a line for th West coast. It is contended, however that this is a matter which can scarcely be handled by the Isthmian Canal Commission and that it will put up squarely to the President his return. It developed to-day from a high | source that the apparent competion between the Pacific Mail Steamship Company and lines from the South t Panama was really neot competitive and that, in fact, the lines constituted a trust. Investigation has shown that there was a sameness in the charges which could be explained by no other thecry than that of a trust. paciaboy e FIVE THOUSAND MEN AT WORK.

The work of installing an American plant at Culebra was going forward as fast as the machinery and supplies could be secured on the isthmus. and when Wallace left six American steam shovels were at work in the Culebra excavaticns and arrangements had been made to install aditional machines at the rate of two a month. The health of the young Americans on the isthmus is particularly good. There has been very little sickness and mparatively few fatalities have re- sulted. Those that have occurred gen- erally have been of persons who have led improper lives or who have been affected with some functional disorder. The employes from the States have been remarkably free from fever. e PEORIA. L.
