YAMAGACnrS CHUM MAY HAVE MISLED POLICE Dispatch to The SANTA ROSA. Aiy.

The arrest of Japanese in Oakland this afternoon who says his name is Mayada, but who acknowledges that the picture on which he was identified and arrested is his, has caused a curious muddle. The picture sent to the Oakland police in the center of three Japanese was positively identified here by Harry Misawa as Henry Yamagachi, the man who is beinp sought for the murders. Saturday morning a Japanese will go To' Oakland for this city who can identify the man. Misawa is the closest personal friend had In this section and in the presence of Assistant District Attorney G. W.

Hoyle, Chief of Police John M. Boyes and newspaper representatives Thursday afternoon. Misawa picked out the picture as that of the jnuch wanted Yamagachi. Misawa was one of the group of three Japanese in the picture. The third man in the picture Is Myeda.

Either Misawa's identification is correct or he has purposely misled the officers and thrown them off the trail. It is thought here "that he was honest In his identification. An interesting light was thrown on the case today by. the etory which F. F.

Carlisle told' to Hoyle. He said the man whose picture has been printed as that of Yamagachi rushed into the railroad office at Cazadero Sunday following the disappearance of the Ken- dalls. Carlisle was the agent of the raJlroad company at that time and is now employed by the company here. It was a few minutes alter the departure of the early afternoon train and the Japanese was frightened and desirous of getting away instantly. He betrayed himself by extreme nervoUsness and asked opportunity he would have "to reach San Francisco that afternoon.

Carlisle told him there was another train to leave at 4:35. a little more than two hours later. This information was decidedly pleasing to the Japanese and he seemed greatly relieved. During his wait for the train the Japanese, who has been identified as Yamagachi. occupied one of the remotest pcrrtions of the waiting room.

He was kept busy by the collie dog be iiad taken from the Starbuck ranch, for the animal persisted in tryinjsr to set away." Just as Yamag-achi boardinsr tlie train the dog escaped and before the Japanese could capture him the train was moving. Yamagachi had difficulty in catching: the train and ETvlngring- aboard. The man had 'a bundle of clothing and bedding and a small bundle of tools. His was checked to Santa Rosa, and he remained here over night. Carlisle is positive that there were no marks, on the face of the as if he had been beaten, as stated by Mrs.

Starbuck. He talked with the maji at intervals for two hours and declared that if Yamagrachi's face had been cut he could not have failed to notice it. Harry Misawa and Yoshio Yoshida also say with' equal that YamagachJ's features bore no marks. Chairman H. Austin and the other members of the board of supervisors, together with a number of the county officials, joined in a petition this afternoon to Governor James N.

Gillett. In -this the governor is requested to offer r'a suitable reward for the apprehension coriviction of the murderer of, the Kendalls. This evening Governor lett was reached over the telephone by Assistant District Attorney at Bohemian Gillett promised to take the matter up Monday. He gaVe his particular reason for postpon. ing action at this- time that he was not familiar with the amount of money on hand In the fund for such purpose.

That a reward will be offered if the Oakland suspect proves to be the wrong man Is felt certain. Another interesting development of the day here was the report made.Fri,-* day regarding three Japanese who came from the direction of Cazadero the day, after the date the crime Is thought to have been' committed. -These men entered a Guerneville barber shop and each had his mustache shaved off and his hair trimmed closely. have been done as a disguise. is a common belief here that If the Kendall family -was murdered Japanese, which is.

the only theory in" the case, that several members of that race were guilty of the crime. Tit is not believed that one Japanese could have slain three members of the family alone. For this reason much importance Is attached, td the tsory of the having their mustaches, and they may have concerned in the crime. This matter is. being, carefully Investigated, and-Jt is said the officers have some promising clews.

Some Japanese who formerly spent considerable time in the vicinity of Cazadero have not been, seen for many days. past. TOM KENDALL A DANCE NIGHT OF JULY 23 That Tom Kendall was alive up to 11 p. m. July 23 is testified to.by Edward Mohrig, of the Mohrig vulcanizing company at 543 Van Ness avenue.

With Senator Thomas P.

Gore reasserting his charge that he had been offered a bribe of $25,000 or to influence his action in. congress and with Jake L. accused by the senator of having offered the bribe, denying he had ever done any such thing, the investigation of the Oklahoma Indian lands by a committee of the house of representatives today simmered down to a mass of denials. For four hours iHamon, former chairman of the Oklahoma republican state entered a continuous series of denials as to his alleged relation with what are Known as the McMurray contracts, by. which, according to Senator Gore, $3,000,000 or J10 -per cent of $30,000,000 to be realized from the sale of Indian lands to a New York syndicate, was to be diverted from the Indians in the shape or "attorneys- fees." HAMOX'S TESTIMONY Hamon testified: was down here, in Oklahoma attending to.

SAYS GORB WASTED MOXEV "That's beyond my power, to conjecture," replied Hamon. "I never had one penny's worth of interest in the McMurray contracts and never offered a bribe to any one. "It is barely possible that I did see Senator Gore on May last, when he says the offer of a bribe was made.

I saw him frequently, but at this time I believe he took me up Into the library of the senate and closed the door, He wanted to talk over with-me his coming campaign, and see how I could help him out financially." i "You and Senator Gore had been good friends, had you not?" asked Chairman "Yes.

Aug. lt is officially announced that the manifestation scheduled to be held at San Sebastian Sunday has been abandoned. The Catholic newspapers will publish manifestos explaining the decision. Alarmed by fears that the proposed demonstration of the clerical forces at San Sebastian, the summer capital, would assume the character of an uprising, the government today began to rush troops into San Sebastian. 1 A regiment of hussars left Madrid this morning, followed by another regiment of cavalry and two battalions of chasseurs.

A regiment of Infantry also was ordered from Vittoria. WEYJLER IX COMMA.YD Both Captain General Weyler. the captain general of and Count Sagasta. the minister of the Interior, will "to Sebastian to be in immediate charge in case of disorder. The government believes the Carllsts and the members of the legious orders, which are numerous In northern Spain, are openly inciting their followers to violence.

The governors' of tfce Basque provinces and the adjoining provinces of Navarra today issued orders to the mayors of all the municipalities in these proinces i to warn the Roman Catholics against essembling or entering the city of San Sebastian with arms and that the most energetic measures would be taken to repress any attempt at a manifestation. Simultaneous with the rubbing of troops to San Sebastian to- cope with an- uprising which, the' government feared might grow out of the proposed demonstration of the clerical fortes in protest against the government's stand in its dispute with the Vatican. Premier Canalejas today issued a statement outlining his policy. EXPLVIXS Senor Canalejas declared the demonstration would have been permitted elsewhere than at San Sebastian or Bilbao, in fact that he desires It to be held in order that Its strength may be shown. The demonstration, however, has been abandoned since the Premier's statement came out.

The statement of the premier follows: "I would have allowed the manifestation if it had been 'announced to have been held elsewhere than at Bilbao, where a strike of coal 13 in progress, or at San Sebastian, which, is crowded with visitors on Sundays. "I know that priests are distributing arms, and also that the manlfestants intend to bring women and children with them in order to prevent military intervention. But 1 am determined to enforce respect for the law. Troops will be distributed at strategic points and the railroad will be held for reinforcements. If my adversaries want a lesson, they shall have it.

They will responsible for whatever happens." PROSECUTOR FLEES PRISONER IN AUTO Takes Alleged Embezzler Out Court's Jurisdiction SAN DIEGO. Aug. With Geor.c- H. Lambert in an automobile. A.
