AMERICAN CONSUL IS OBSTINATE Hefases to Accept It stasia's Right to Dictate In nrtari o Maa. 1 rharlaa -Territory Mw Dvrtlop mrntt. ST. PETERSBURG. March 31.-The Rus sian government In disturbed by the atti tude sss-imed , by KrH D.. Fisher, the American coniiut at Harbin, In the matter of recognising (he Jurisdiction at Rumla In Manchuria. Mri Klsher Insists that Chinese., -sovereignty ,ln Manchuria la supreme, and, furthermore, he has sup ported the protests of China sgalnst the establishment by Russia ot municipalities In the railroad cone at Uaibin and Challar Independent of the ClUneae government, ' and his attitude In this Russo-Chlnese dif ficulty has prompted Russia to seek an eiplanatlon of his course both at the American embassy hcreand lnVashlng- . ton. Mr. Fisher Is accredited to China, and , since his arrival In Harbin In January, 117, he has consistently refused to recog nise or admit that he should have any thing to do with the Russian administra tion of the, territory. He has been firm In Ills assumption that, he was accredited solely to Cfctna. and he has declined to act on the suggestion conveyed to him by an official of the Russian railroad adminis tration that he should secure the permis sion of General Horvath.' the Russian gov ernor of Harbin, before -'opening his con tulate or raising the American flag over She building. Vnder the treaty of ISM, Russia claims exclusive control over ,the railroad son In Manchuria, as Well as' the right to' or ganise Independent .self-governing munici palities. The taotal of Harbin protested against this, to the" Russian governor and , to the consuls of the United States and Japan. The Japanese, who are now co operating In the friendliest manner with the Russlsns In Manchuria, rejected this protest, but Mr." Fisher supported It. j The foreign office here expresses the be lief that It would be decidedly to the in terest of the I'nlted States to recognise Russian administration of Manchuria, In asmuch as foreign residents share In the privileges of this administration. Already "object of Inquiry. WASHINGTON, March 31. It Is admitted t the State department that the status of the American consul at Harbin has been made the subject ..of representations to Washington by the Russian government, but while negotiations are pending the of ficials are loath to discuss It. The Im portant fact la developed, however, that the American consul. Mr. Fisher. Is not tctlng on his own Initiative In declining to seek the permission of Russia to exer rlse his consular functions. Oft the con trsry. It Is understood thst he Is simply executing a carefully considered plan of the" State department to bring about through proper means a recognition not only by Russia, but by other nations In terested In Msnchurla, pf the Integrity of Chinese possessions. It was long ago per ceived that to admit the right of political control of either Russia or Japan over the so-called "railroad gone" In Manchuria, Including as they do the principal com mercial depots, and capable as they are of Indefinite expansion of boundaries at the whim ofy . holders, would soon com pletely' tfyLjin HayV dream of -the open door'.'.Jjtrtchurla. Therefore. IVciulte definite policy has been adopted by the State department, the very foundation of which waa the appli cation of American consuls In that province for Chinese executors. This was by no means pleasing to Japan, but It Is believed that America- Is supported fylly therein by the great cororrierclal nations of Europe, which have large trade Inter ests In the orient. ' -.

In conse quenre of the vote of lack of confidence In It carried on March 28. the Finnish Senate has decide to resign. This vote passed the Diet by 71 to 47 and was the work of the socialists.

INDEPENDENTS PLAN CAMPAIGN Permanent Headauariera Opened by Telephone Mem In Chicago for Aggressive Action. CHICAGO, March 31. Fcrmanent head quarters of the International Independent Telephone association were opened today In Chicago with the purpose of Inaugurat ing a policy of aggressiveness that the or ganization expects will put a hew com plexion on the telephone situation In Amer ica.

The cry of duplication and waste is a familiar one In all branches and Industries, but recent utterances of the candidate for me hlKhe.it office In the land on cummer. clal and Industrial liberty and competition as sgalnst monopoly, provide all the de fense the Independent telephone Industry mify need.

Vital Statistics Lacking. MITCH ELI S. D., March 31. (Special.) Doane Robinson, superintendent of vital statistics. Is making a round of the coun ties of the state, looking Into the reasons for the lack of reports concerning the births and deaths which have occurred. ' Mr. Rob inson's books at Pierre show that a num ber of counties are somewhat short on this Information and It Is for the purpose of stirring them up to their duties that the superintendent Is making his investigation It. Is the intent of the law to1 put the bur den of these reports on the persons most interested In making them to the clerks of courts, whose duty it Is to make report to the superintendent. By this system there snould be on record at Pierre the name of every child born In the state from the time that the law went Into effect, and also the name of every person that died; while a siate record Is also kept of the marriages and -"Ivorces that are granted. In the years to come these records are going to be very valuable and the superintendent wants to impress on the people right now that they must not overlook this duty. Yoana- Woman Takes Homestead.

WILL REOPEN RAILWAY FIGHT toart s He Has night to Pass I'pon Reasonableness of Rates, Incladlagr the Two-Cent Fare Law. KANSAS CITY, Mo.. March 31. Jtldge Smith Mcpherson In the federal court here today decided that he has full Jurisdiction over both the maximum freight rate and the I-cent passenger fare cases In Misseur) In other words, ha holds In favor of the railroads and against the state In the question of Jurisdiction. Last year tho legislature passed the 2- cer.t law and a minimum freight law. re, ducing existing freight rates about 15 per cent. All of t.ie main line railroads In Missouri Joined in an application for an injunction last June from the federal court at Kansas City to prevent the state offl elaJs from enforcing the laws. Meantime a truce was arranged between the railroads and the attorney general under which the roads were to put the 2-cent law In force. The freight rate law waa first passed In 1906 and fixed rates on many commodities in car load lots on a cent-a-mlle basis The enforcement of that law was tied up by the federal court and a master took testimony to determine the fairness of the rate. In 190T, with the case still pending, the leglslautre passed a new law with more reasonable rata schedules for live stock. The railroads went Into court with an amendment to their first bill, enjoining the enforcement of the old law. They asked the court to enjoin the new freight rate because the passenger earnings are In volved In the same cIrbs with freight earnings. In making up the total receipts. Attorney General Hadley fought the amendment, denying the right of the fed eral court to enjoin him or Interfere with the enforcement of tho criminal statute The railroads agreed to give the J-cent law a test for three months and asked Judge Mc-Pherson to give them that much time to see how the law would affect their revenues. For seven months the railroads have sold tickets at 2 cents. Now comes the court with a decision, holding that In enjoining the state officers he is not enjoining the state itself; that he has a perfect right to go Into the question of whether the rates fixed by the statutes are remunerative. Frank Hagerman, attorney for the rail roads, said today afterr the decision was rendered that he did not know what the next steps of the railroads would be. DEATH RECORD. James S. Knowles. James B.

Johnson pursued In Omaha his preliminary training course to a term In the penitentiary. Johnson, who also went under the names of Harry Martin and C. F. Jones, was ar rested in Nebraska City Monday, brought back to Omulia and Tuesday was -bound over to the district court under $300 bond after ho had nonchalantly pleaded guilty to forgery. Detectives Dunn and Ferris had been working on the case since John son disappeared frcm Omaha last Friday, leaving several citizens poorer, but wiser. Johnson first made his appearance at the I'allu Moving Tlcture theater, lately ppened et Fourteenth and Douglas streets. To R. O. Grayson, the manager, he presented his card, reading, "J. C. Johnson, Statg-Build ing Inspector.'! Manager Grayson conducted the building Inspector over his establishment. The in spector examined everything Carefully. He was no man to slight his duties, this In spector, for did not the lives of little chll- Aren and women depend upon It? However, he was gratified to fine that the aisles of the theater were seven inches wider than the law demanded. He took occasion to commend Manager Grayson upon the lib- eraI spirit with which he had complied with the state law. He went further and wrote a letter of commendation and signed his name to it with his full title, "state build'iig Inspector." As he was about to leave he found him self in need of a little cash. He had a check for $25. Would Mr. Grayson cash It? Well, rather. And the Inspector departed Government Itevenne Inspector. The same afternoon he went into the saloon of George Hyte, 302 North Sixteenth street. He Introduced 'himself as a gov ernment revenue Inspector. He allowed his badge and Mr. Hyte immediately placed himself at the disposal of Uncle Sam's truBty man. Together they went through the establishment from one end to the Other. Tim rovi.nna Insnitn. .

Y.. and Cap tain Shields of South Omaha has secured the necessary papers to bring him back to Nebraska and will go for him at once. In the complaint it Is Bet forth that Anna Offermann is ,an old woman easily in fluenced. She (ays the professor told her there was $30,000 burled on her farm and he could locate the pile for her. To make, his charm, however, the professor told ills victim, she must deposit $2,000 in a box in which he had a mariner's compass. This was done. Then the box was secured around the top with cement and dropped into a jbucke.tlof water into which some colors had becrl dissolved. The victim then placed the boxi in the safety deposit vault for sate keeping. The professor was to call the next morning and the box was to be opened. If the charm worked the com pass would be sufficiently "galvanized'' to locate the mondy when taken to the farm. The woman dlnl-overed the next morning, when the profcsior failed to show up, that he had swltcheo' boxes on her and her $J,Ouo was gone.
