LONG SESSION TO-DAY. ‘ Alfred Lilienfeld ® Co. MORE EVIDENCE ACAINST HOGLAN Believed to Be the Man Who Assassinated Ex-Governor of Idaho by Means of Bomb DETAINED AT CALDWELL Fish Lines in His Room Are Similar to Pieces Found at Scene of the Tragedy ki SRRl CALDWELL, Idaho, Jan. 1.—The offi- cers believe they have one of the men respohsible for the assassination of ex- Governor Steunenberg. He is of those who have been under suspicion. This man registered at the Saratoga Ho- tel three weeks ago as M. J. Hoglan, giving Denver as his address. A year ago he stopped at the Pacific Hotel, register- ing as Thomas Hoglan. A search of his room at the Saratoga resulted in the find- ing of an old overcoat and‘some other rough clothes, also soms fish lines simi- lar to the pieces found at the scene of one the explosion, supposed to be part of the | string with which the trigger of the in- ternal mgchine was pulled. Tn his grip was a lot of white pawder believed to be a Thigh explosive. There was also some- thing that looked like® brown wrappiug paper, but it would not burn. The con- tents of the grip are in the hands of chemist It is stated_that Angas Sutherland, for- mer Sheriff of Shoshone County, who is on the ground, has recognized this man as one who was in the famous bull pen after the Coeur d'Alene riots 1899, This story has not yet been confirmed. The officers thought of taking Heglan to Boise this evening. as the jail her a very poor affair and affords no oppor- tunity to keep suspects apart After a gonference, however, it was determined to keep him here, since it was feared his remova) would be construed as evidence of fear’ of mob vialence. Hoglan has been a rather mysterious character. The officers believe he .was carefully laying the plans for the crime 1 expected to’ escape suspltion by r maining in his quarter: a convenient opportunity should be pre- sented to take his departure. The funeral of Governor Steunenberg wil! take place to-morrow morning at 11 o'clock. The services will be conducted by Rev. W. J. Boone, presideiit of the College of Idahu, a Presbyterian church. W. E. Borah will also deliver an addres on the occasion. —ee————— WOULD DRIVE PESTS FROM THE BAY STATE Ellwood Cooper of California Makes Proposition to Massachusetts. Special Dispatch to The Call.

CHAMBERLAIN OPENS ATTACK Deseribes the Liberal Minis- try as a “Home Rule-Lit- tle England” Government R I LLONDON, Jan. 1.—Joseph Chamberlain published his election manifesto to-day. After vigorously attacking the new Gov- ernment, wh he describes as being es- sentially a_‘“home rule-little England"” Government, depending for its existence on Imish votes, he devotes himself entirely to an exposition of his fiscal policy, espe- cially to_the subject of colonial prefer- ence, which he speaks of as the first item in the constructive programme of the Unionist party, the second item, closely connected with the first, being the policy of retalation. Chamberlain declares that the colonies will not wait indefinitely, but will be forced to enter inte arrangements with strangers. He points out that the scheme of eolonial preference will inciude a pro- vision for a small tax on foreign wheat, | but says that as both home grown and and former | colenial wheat, will be free and the sup- ply from the colonies unlimited, the price of bread will not be increased in the slightest degree. Chamberlain declares that hé believes the Unionist party to be absolutely agreed regarding these aims, though he admits that there may be some differences of | opinion when the time comes to discuss | caolie the methods by which they are to be ac- complished. He says, however, that these differences of oninion probubiy are exag- gerated snd thatsthey are matters more of verbal distinction than of practical im- portance. 4 B CHAMPIONS COOLIE LABOR. Balfour Says Exclusion Would Destroy Transvaal Mining Industry. LONDONg Jan. 2—Owing to the brief period intervening before the elections the campaign has now been opened in deadly carnest and speeches and manifestoes fol- | low one another in the utmost profusion. Balfour devoted his speech at Leaming- ton, Warwickshire, vesterday whoily to | the Chinese labor question. He declared that the fate of the South African colo- | nies was involved in the success of the mining indu¥try and that the Transvaal would become bankrupt if that industry were destroyed, as experience had shown that the situation Wwas saved only by Jabor. Balfour characterized as foolish and atrocious falsehoods the Lib- eral representations that the status of ihe coolies was one of slavery, and expressed the conviction that the Liberal Govern- ment never contemplated the insane at- tempt to drive out the Chinese. He said that the whole outery was nothing but an electioneering maneuver. The Conservative papers in their edi- torials this morning appear to be pleased with the moderation of Chamberlain’s manifesto and to be somewhat relieved that it reveals no hostility toward Bal- four. They note as. the chief peint of dif- ference that Balfour gives the first place to retaliation, while Chamberlain places colonial preference in the forefront. The Standard instances this as an indi- cation that an important rapprochement has been effected, and congratulates Chamberlain on the loyalty he displays toward his leader. ‘3 3 The Daily Telegraph expresses equal satisfaction. It says that Chamberiain’s manifesto is a ‘“‘document to which all Unionists can heartily and sincerely sub- scribe. It proves that Mr. Chamberlain has turned a deaf ear to those ad- trouble yet threatened is the attitude of the labor party, especiaily the section op- posed to the elevation of John Burns to the Ministry. The section insists in fore- ing three-cornered contests, which almost, inevitably result in giving seats to the Unionists. BECOMES BRIDE ON FIRST DAY OF NEW YEAR Spectal Dispatch to The Call.

He adds, though, that he was told by a Japanese officer that had 208 Meter Hill been forti- fied, the port of Port Arthur would have been impregnable. According to this offi- cer, the Japanese were astonished at the absence of fortifications, as they had been given to understand that the hill had been heavily fortified with most modern armament.
