CALLS JAPAN UNFAIR
T. S. Childs Severe in. Criti
cism of Trials in Korea.
JUSTICE FOR THE ACCUSED
Hopes Secretary Knox's Visit to
Island Empire Will Be
sult in Good.
To tho Editor of The Star:
Tt is to be hoped that the visit of Sec
eretary Knox to Japan, besides its honor
to the dead emperor, -will result In se
curing Justice for the Americans accused
of conspiracy against the Korean gov
ernnrient.
Statements have appeared recently, evi
dently intended to influence public opin
ion here, that are not sustained by the
facts. Japan has been represented as
not only absolutely just, hut; even lenient
in Its treatment of the Koreans. Of the
Koreans as a nation the writer in ques
tion says: "They are born intriguers
with a most degrading religion and need
ins no provocation to evil doing of any
kind."
It is some twenty-five years since tlie
present writer was first brought in con
tact with Koreans. As far as they were
representative of their race they were
the most absolute contradiction of the
above statement. They were intelligent
gentlemen. Since then numbers of young
Koreans, like Chinese and Japanese, have
come to this country for an education
and have returned to assist in the eleva
tion of their countrymen. It Is not neces
sary to defend the Korean religion or to
deny its evils. It Is the very thing that
American missionaries have gone out to
save thena from, as thousanus have been
saved and orought to a higher and purer
life.
Missionaries Taught Loyalty.
When Japan had effected the subjuga
tion of Korea?and this testimony is of
great importance in view of subsequent
events?"the missionaries, pastors and
the church leaders there were unanimous
in their teachings of submission and
loyalty to t lie governing (Japanese)
power."
In spite of this from 100 to 200 of the
Korean Christians are charged with con
spiracy to assassinate the Japanese head
of the Korean government. In this con
spiracy it was claimed that the Ameri
can missionaries were involved. To ob
tain evidence against these missionaries
the report that shocked the civilized
world was that the most inhuman tor
tures were inflicted upon the Korean con
verts. The case was considered of such
importance that the New York Herald
arranged for a personal investigation.
There was great difficulty in securing the
(acts, but enough trickled through to In
dicate the character of the tortures.
'?One man testified that he endured the
torture for more than a month, and only
when his body broke down he assented to
the false statement demanded of him."
Others, in detailing the methods employ
ed, described how they had been beaten
into insensibility, how they had been tied
up for hours, their hands trussed behind
their backs, and then raised to a tiptoe in
a manner scientifically designed. physi
cians say, to put every muscle of the body
under the severest possible strain; how
they had been fried by hot irons held
close to the body in such a way as to pro
duce the sensations of being roasted alive
without leaving a scar on the skin. "I
would not have had a chance to testify
to my innocense if I had not admitted
complicity when tortured, for I would
have died," said another. Another man
told how he was forced to admit having
pistols in his possession. 1 was tortured
and told What to say. How many died
under tlie tortures will never be known.
Japanese Chief Justice Removed.
As the trial drew near both Koreans
and Americans expressed entire satisfac
tion that it was to be before the Japanese
chief justice, Watanabe, in whose judi
cial fairness they had perfect confidence.
Here came the sinister and astounding
fact in tlie case. Judge W atanabe waa
removed and a man of entirely different
character was appointed in his place. The
Japanese explanation of this removal?
that it was in reference to a promotion
and had been in contemplation for two
years?is hardly satisfactory. If the pro
motion could wait unannounced for two
years, it surely could have waited a little
longer for the trial of these ea.ses.
When the trail came on, a correspond
ent writes, "the new judge, throughout
not only did not attempt to ascertain
from the defendants the manner and
means or the agents of torture, but every
effort was made to prevent the giving of
testimony on this point. This testimony
was wedged in by the defendants between
the constant efforts of the judge and the I
interpreters to make them stop."
From another source we learn that the
attorneys for the defense attempted to
put the policemen on the witness stand,
but were forbidden to do so by the judge.
They also attempted to put the mission
aries on the stand in their own defense,
but here again they were refused the
privilege. The court's decisions were so
evidently unfair and unjust that the at
torneys for the accused stopped the trial
by an appeal. It is the new trial that at
the last advices was under way. The re?
suit will be watched with intense interest.
In thes crises of her history Japan has
had the overwhelming sympathy of this ,
country. It is to be hoped that she will 1
justify that sympathy by her treatment
not only or American citizens, but of a
conquered and helpless nation.

PARADE IN CHRIAND
CONCLUDES NOME WEEK
Fireworks Display on Night
Previous Big Feature of
Exercises.
Special Dispatch to "Hie Star.
CUMBERLAND, Md., September 7.?
With the exception of the mardi gras
and masque parade tonight, tlie home
week exercises practically ended last
night with the greatest display of fire
works ever seen in this city. The pieces
were unusual in number and attractive
ness. The portraits of Mayor George
G. Young: and Chairman Footer of the
executive committee were true, and the
features of the two Cumberland citizens
were easily recognizable by the thou
sands that lined the river banks. The
fantastic parade started at 8 o'clock.
I^ast night a home-coming dance was
given at the Daisy Academy, and was
the most largely attended ever held in
the hall.
Since Monday morning nearly 5.000
people visited the white car containing
the exhibit of the Maryland Society for
the Prevention of Tuberculosis. The
car will remain here until next Thurs
day morning.
Girls Draw Float in Parade.
A feature of the trades display and
automobile parade yesterday was a float
drawn by fourteen little girls in white.
It was in charge of George Rossworm.
With white ribbon cords the little
misses were strung out a distance of
about forty feet from the car. The chil
dren trudged bravely three miles over
the streets.
The last day of the international shoot,
under the auspices of the Cumberland
CJun Club, held in connection with the
sxercises. closed with much enthusiasm.
The highest average among professional
shots was scored by L^ester German,
ivho. shooting twenty-two yards, broke
297 clay pigeons out of 300.
Lose on Running' Meet.
Seven thousand dollars was lost in the
home-coming running meet of the Cum
berland Jockey Club, which was promoted
by John S. Berger. This was officially
announced from the judges' stand today,
the fifth and closing day. The horsemen
mere about to strike and it looked as if
there would be no races. However, they
agreed to go on for purses of JluO. Two
races were run when a thunderstorm
converted the track into a sea of mud.
The people refused to go to the race
:rack during the week, the carnivals keep
ng them on the streets. The home
coming celebration in itself was a success
socially and otherwise. Twelve citizens v
if Cumberland put up $50u each or $6,out)
to get the race*. The sate receipt? did
not pay the purses.
Betting- Is Permitted.
Thursday and Friday the purses were
cut $25 each. The losses were In face of
the fact that betting was permitted and
that the money wheel was kept going.
Wednesday, the sheriff stopped it, hut it
started up Thursday, and there was no
further interference.
The executive committee in charge of
the home-coming celebration, which wan
independent of the races, also will tlnd
a deficit. While gambling was permitted
at the race track, it was not allowed in
the city.
The committee sold concessions for
$1,8(15, hut a petition was gotten up by
(ieorge C. Frey, protesting against the
issuing of six-day licenses, and this fell
through. The finance committee got lit
tle support from the saloons, they giving
on an average of $3.50 each toward the
celebration. The three largest contribu
tions to the fund were city of Cumber
land, F. Mertens Sons, $500, and
Thomas Footer, $i!00
Thousands of poodle dogs were sold
during the celebration by dealers. The
concession men all had a rich harvest.
PRIZES FOE INTENTIONS.
Two Army Medical Officers Receive
Red Cross Awards.
For their inventions for alleviating
human suffering. MaJ. Paul S. Halloran
and Capt. Henry L. Brown, both of the
Medical Corps; 1'nited States Army, were
yesterday sent checks each for $505.06
as the prizes awarded to them by the
Ninth International Red Cross Confer
ence recently held here.
The former officer entered a folding lit
ter. and the latter a portable laboratory.
The prizes are a part of the fund donated
for such purposes by the Empress Marie
Feodorovna of Russia. The money has
just been transmitted through the Amer
ican Red Cross by the central committee
of the Russian Red Cross Society. M;iJ.
'.Halloran is stationed at the Walter
Reed General Hospital here, and Capt.
Brown is at Fort Slocum, New York.
MOVE NAVAL DISPENSARY.
Larger Quarters and More Extensive
Equipment to Be Provided.
The dispensary connected with the bu
reau of medicine and surgery of the
Navy Department Is to he moved from
its present location in the Mills building
to 703 17th street. Larger quarters have
been leased at that location, and the dis
pensary is to have more extensive equip
ments.
One of the most important changes that
will be made in the dispensary will be
the arrangement by which specialists will
be in attendance on certain days to treat
patients. These specialists will come
from the Naval Medical School, and will
give naval officers and their families an
opportunity to take advantage of the
service.
The room now occupied by the dis
pensary will be used for the record* of
the division of naval pension*.
