I WASHINQTOy, Oct. 26.-Viscount Aokl, the Japanese avibaxsador, at a conference ! with Secretary Hoot at the State depart j (nent today, made the request on behalf j of his j-overnment, that the t'nlted States I aee that Japanese subjects In California i were accorded their full rights under the treaty of Including the right of ctitl- , dren to freely attend the publlo schools of : San Francisco. Secretary Root will take Ithe matter up with the president, and It la likely that representations will be made ade with the authorities of California. The ambassador said the exclusion ot ; Japanese children ' from Saa Francisco auliools was the chief cause of the critic ism of the United States. . Ha was Inclined I to . discount other " causes given for the faenttment against this country. No formal protest was lodged by the am bassador with Mr. Root, but In a friendly way Viscount Aokl discussed the situation "with- the "secretary and expressed regret that Japanese children should be dlscrtm- Jnated against.

"There Is much misunderstanding In Japan concerning the true situation. Of eourse, the Japanese government fully .realises that the action against the Japa ivtese children Is local and not general In this country, but all the Japanese people do not understand the conditions in this eountry,' and an unfriendly attitude to . "ward Japan la regarded as a national taction" The action against the Japanese children ts regarded as extremely serious by Vls tfount Aokl and he made no attempt to dis count Its Importance. "After all the years mt friendship between the two nations It PMmi too bad .'that poor, Innooent little Japanese school children should be subject to' ouch indignities," said the ambassador.

MII,TARD, Neb.. Oct. JO.-(Speclal Tele gram.) Last night a man named Thomas Coffey, recently employed by Contractor Fltigerald on the railroad grade, came to the town marshal and asked permission to sleep In the Jail. Thia was granted and the door was left open so he could leave when he was ready.

This morning, when the marshal un locked the door, the body of Coffey found hanging from the top of one of th cells, to which It was attached by hi suspenders. The top of the cell Is so low It permitted his foet to touch the floor and he had bent his knees to produce strangula tion. Little Is known of the man around here.

Ayers committed suicide by shooting thla morn in, dvlna- this afternoon. It was found that the bullet, which was from a 23-callber, long barreled, target pistol, had entered the brain. The cause of the deed was given In a letter addressed to his son, Charles Ayers, which had been writen at various times. Heading the letter Is the following: "Don't let thla be seen. Tell all that I killed myself rather than become a sot and disgrace to myself and family through the vice of morphine." Mr. Ayers wsa born In Ashtabula, O., In 183 and served In the war. with Company I, Forty-eighth Indiana Infantry. He lost his left arm In battle In 1863, and drew a pension.

Storm Does No Damaare. GORDON. Neb., Oct. 25. (Special.) This section of Nebraska was visited by the worst snowstorm that has ever been known to occur here at this time of the year. It began' to rain and snow last Friday after noon and the storm continued to grow worse until Tuesday night, when the wind went down, and Wednesday morning all vii lovely again.' The snow Is from one to two feet deep on the level and In many places Is drifted several feet deep. Trains are delayed and telephone wires are down Up to this writing no serious losses to stockmen are reported. Today the snow Is rapidly meJtlng and Indications now are that northwest Nebraska will yet hava Its accustomed eight weeks of sunshine from November 1 to New Tears. Nearly all the farmers have their potatoes dug and in the pit and what few are yet undug are said to be uninjured by the snowstorm, ss the weather was not cold and the ground re mains unfroaen under its coat of snow. Many fields of grain are yet In the stack awaiting thrtr turn In threshing. The fre quent heavy rains of September caused farmers to be from two to three weeks behind in their fall work.

At this time, the cream is tested in a machine which Redfern said was made to test milk, and as cream Is much lighter the test Is not a good one.

Is to be cleaned up and the occu pants of the houses made to move out. This morning a suit was riled against Rose Klrkwood, who Is charged with conduct ing , such a house half a block from O street, on Ninth. The suit was filed by Charles Selfert, who conducts a bicycle store. He alleges m this house occur fights and disturbances every night and that the women who live there conduct themselves In a very unseemly manner, that they go out In the street-more or less Intoxicated and dressed less. All this, he alleges, has depreciated the value of prop erty tn this neighborhood and he wants the house used for other purposes If it is used at all. ' ' ' ' - ' Boys Promise to Be Geod.

The democrats of Lincoln pulled off a big rally here tonight, with A. C. fihallenberger, candidate for governor, the drawing card, in a mighty effort to tear down the stone wall of republicanism which encloses Lan caster county. The affulr was held .In the Oliver theater, and ' the Havelock band, with the big "B. & M." sign, significant at least tn this Instance, painted on the bass drum, was a pleasing feature of the affair. In the audience were a number of repub licans, including officials of the republican state committee, while the absence from the stage of Oeorge W. Berge and the ab sence from the audience of populists was conspicuous enough to attract notice. The democratic candidate was given an enthu siastic reception when he wus Introduced and he was cheered frequently. His speech was carefully prepared, and happy stories at opportune times kept it from being aiy and uninteresting. He spoke of the sec tions of the democratic platform in detail and promised profusely to carry out its pledges If elected governor. He asserted It was more apedflc than the republican plat form, and he dwelt at length upon the plank promising a law to compel a 2-cent passenger rate. Hla time spent on this sec tion was In the nature of an apology. In that he explained thoroughly that tho rail roads would make money by the change. He assured the audience Nebruvka needed no more new laws, but needed enforcement of the prfsent laws, especially the maxi mum freight rate law, which he failed to explain became a dead letter when the State Board of Transportation was declared unconstitutional. He denounced the republican party for passing a revenue law In which the precinct assessor was cut out and the power of as sessment placed In the hands of the county assessor, with the state board, a board of review, with final power to Increase or de crease the assessment. Ilu told in detail of the trrf.it 'Increase in the assessment of property other than the railroad property, for which he de nounced the state board, but said nothing about the Increased railroad assessment.

Burkett addressed a large and enthusiastic audience at the court house last evening. He spoke at length on the national Issues and paid his compli ments to W. J. Bryan In an amusing and effective way. He reviewed republican poli cies and explained how and why they had brought such unexampled prosperity to ' the American people. The hard times of '4, '96 and '96 and the discontent so widespread at that , time was contrasted with conditions at the present time when everyone is prosperous, contented and happy. He called attention especially to the ne cessity of republicans voting a straight ticket and electing a republican legislature who would have the election of United States senator. Hon. M. R. Hopewell of Tekamah, candi date for lieutenant governor, also spoke giving attention principally to the state Issues. S. C.

It Is lie lieved by some that thla is u scheme uon the part of some of the real estate agents to Inflate values, but it is the opinion of most of the poople that the Burlington will enter North Platte at no far distant date. The contracts already made have been at good prices: In fact, at amounts a little above tholr selling value, and thev are made on a ash payment of ijO. the balance to tie paid at the end of thirty days. This precludes the possibility of the sales being a scheme of real estate dealers, as It would hardly lie possible for them to sell the real estate st the prices contracted for within thirty days.
