The Rev. Burkhardt, Popular Pastor at Connersville, Is Sustained. TROUBLE WITH ATTORNEY. Conmrsnlle, lnd.. Feh. 1'!). The official board of the Christian church published ;i statement in tlic local papers denying a street runior to the effect that, tho board bad asked for the resignation of the lt;v. James C. liurkZiardt, pastor of the church. Mr. Burkhardt has been very agsresfcive in- temperance work and the rumor that ho had been asked to resign followed a sensational case in Just ice t'ates's court in which 1 he minister was ti.e prosecuting witness. A few nights ago, .Mr. HurKhardt, with several others, obtained a search warrant, anfl went to the McCann saloon, whore they suspected a poker a.ine w;ui in operation on ttie second floor. On reaching the door that h-ads tiistairH from the saloon the crusaders encountered Lou Connor, a well known local lawyer. Connor is McCann's attorney and he declared the search warrant illal and refused to lft Mr. Burkhardt go up tho stairs. Attorney Held the Fort. , crowd gathered in tho saloon, where the minister and his friends remained for more than an hour, during whih several nltcmpls were made to force an entrance to tin; stairway, but without success. It was alleged that Connor attempted to provoke the minister by usiiiK vile language and threats. Connor was prosecuted this week and the trial was bitterly contested. There was an attendance of ."iOo people who apparent H enjoyed the sharp rhetoric used hy the opposing counsel. A jury of twelve business men heard the case, and they asreeil on a verdict 1 in less than ten minutes, acquitting Connor. Mr. l'urkiiardt is one of Ihe best Jinown ministers of the Christian denomination in this part of the state. During his pastorate congregation has more than doubled and it is now the largest, in the city.

CHINESE MISTER DENIES

JAPANESE Representative of Celestial People Talks of Prospects Of Conflict. San Francisco. Feb. 2!. Wu Ting Fang, for the second time appointed Chinese minister to this country, arrived Friday afternoon on the Pacific mail liner Siberia, with a large retinue of secretaries and legation consulate attaches, numbering seventy persons, tie brought with him new consuls for Mexico, Havana, New York and San Francisco, besides three nephews and three secretaries and seven other attaches for the Chinese Legation at Washington, and twenty-four young students, who will enter various schools and colleges in this country. Minister Wu denied ttie report that he was the bearer of an appeal to Washington asking this country to assist in preserving t he interests of China in Manchuria and protesting against the alleged aggrandizement of Japan in that province, but admitted "there was some local friction." "I have no such documents here," said Minister Wu. placing his hand to his breast pocket: "neither am I the bearer of such an appeal to President Roosevelt. I am giving you no eaI sive answer. I am not that kind of a man. If I was bringing stun a note of protest I would rather frankly tell you so. or else would decline to talk about it. "The relations between Japan an 1 China are cordial. There may be some friction, but it is local. That may occur in any coutury. So far as my knowledge goes Japan has not violated the Portsmouth treaty with reference to the 'open door' policy in Manchuria.'' Asked whether he would endeavor to secure some modification of the exclusion law, Minister Wu said that he had no particular instruction from his government with reference to that. "But I am going to see that my countrymen and their interests are properly protected." he declared. He said that according to representations made to him at Honolulu, from the highet-t to tlie lowest of the white population You Will Have to Hurry Ihose desiring contracts lor pressing of men's clothes will positively close MARCH 1.

The outrage is not believed to have any politkal significance.. Recently there has been political unrest in Argentina owing to the issuance, Jan. Jx of an executive decree closing the extraordinary sessions of the congress and putting into effect for tne current financial year the budget of 17. This extreme measure wa made necessary by the obstruction tactics of a majority in the senate which made impossible the passage of the budget or other legislation, leaving the government powerless to meet ordinary expenses.

WAR STORIES there the situation iullawaii was unanimous for a inondification of the exclusion laws which would permit more Chinese to come to that territory, where they were much needed and wanted. Asked if he though Japan was preparing for war, Wu Tins Fang declared most emphatically that it was not. "I do not believe there will be war between Japan and this country or with any other country.' he said. "1 am positive that Japan is not seeking war. but wishes to maintain peace. I cannot believe otherwise or see what it would gain by war."' n The Jumping Off Place. "Consumption had me in its grasp; and I had almost reached the jumping off place when 1 was advised to try Dr. King's New Discovery; and I want to say right now, it saved my life.
