ORCHARD ADMITS HE HAD NO MERCY FOR BRADELY FAMILY SECRETARY WILL VISIT COAST TO STUDY JAPANESE Straus Proposes to Gather More Information at First Hand SITUATION CRITICAL Japanese Hope to Secure Repeal of Present Ex clusion Treaty ATTACK ON MINISTRY Disgust Expressed Over Stand Taken by Tokyo Government SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CAIJ, WASHINGTON, June 10.— The Japanese agitation may lead Sec retary Straus of the department of commerce and labor to visit San Francisco soon for the purpose of gathering information at first hand as to just what the attitude of the Pacific coast is toward the Japanese, how they are treated and what basis there may be for the complaints lodged by 5 Jap^n that its citizens arc not safe in California. Secretary Straus is debating the question whether he had not better extend" his journey to Honolulu in order, to study the effect of immigration on the Questions. If he' can find' time to <5o so. he "will visit Hawaii. The relations of this country with .1 f.pan are sot at all satisfactory. In rpite off the repeated assurances of diplomats on both sides that "every thing: Is lovely. JCo progress -what ever has been made toward the pro posed new treaty with f Japan, provid ing 1 for the exclusion of Japanese la borers. . * ' . Judging- from the statement of Am bassador : Aokl, made public today, the Japanete not only do not in tend to enter into such a treaty, but after the presidential cam paign will try to secure .t he repeal of the present exclusion law. The Japan ese ministry is greatly embarrassed by the attacks of the opposition upon its action In acquiescing in the exclusion ef laborers by the United States. The opposition desires to brand this as an official admission that the Japanese are not the equal of other nations, and is still engaged In inflaming the Japanese people with this statement. ATEGOTIATIOXS AT STANDSTILL. State department authorities are now ronvlnced that the negotiation of an ex clusion treaty Is. not^ to.be thought M»f. Notwithstanding the Japanese protests, the United States Is not at all satisfied with the' exclusion amendment for. the reason' that It does not effectually\ex . dofle the Japanese.

Haywood for the murder of ex- Goverhor ; Stennenberg, continued all day. And when court adjourned "Attorney"* Richardson not completed his line of questioning about the attempt " to-. murder f Fred Bradley in San Francisco in the fall ) of 1904. At the rate *at -which he is ' proceeding he will not_ conclude his examination of (Orchard for another two days^ After that 'there, will be a considerable redirect .examination, so that Orchard is likely to be on the stand for the remainder of the week. • , a noticeable change in Orchard's manner today. Heretofore he-had maintained an attitude of unresisting meeknes3 under any and all of '•• Richardson's . assaults, ; but ". today *he was rather testy, and several \u25a0 tirae^ he replied with, some^-spirit to' the"; insinuations and assertions of the lawyer. He adhered unshakably,. however," to^ the course that he*had mapped out for himself, i andldid : not . hesitate to . admit his guilt of any offense that RFch ardson-might'charge, no matter how* trivial or", how infamous, provided only that itwas part of the story that. he had to telL ,v, v 'Thus the. witness confessed -having sold short weight: cheeses as hfs first crime, arid without a shiver he \went through the details of the fiendish attempt s to poison the Bradley, family by putting strychnine in the milk. •But^when". the "lawyer questioned him ;about other things, crimes or pec cadillos, .-which- were not included in:the history of his life, as he had Cold it, his Tdenial was \u25a0 instant ; and emphatic. -_'". ASSERTS THAT ONLY STANDARD IS THE TRUTH ';'(\u25a0,' ; Orchard , makes. it perfectly clear .that no consideration of its infamy leads'himlto deny participation; in "any- event or undertaking. There is no "moral abyss* that he 1 -will jiot. admit shaving/ sounded if it -is .connected with hisownJnarratiye.^But he -will not admit a single thing outside thatnarritiviß. . and v'eSrery.^such \? accusarion'c or ;-• insinuation vv h c promptly rejects as untrue.
