ROME, April 3O.-Signor Imbriani, in

girls, who had been taken from their
former owners under the pretext of
rescuing them from slavery, had been
distributed among a number of Italian
officers serving with the Italian army
in Africa
Marquis di Rudini, replying for the
government, protested against such
accusations being made without abso-
lutte proof of their truth having first
been obtained.
Amidst cries of cts a lier' with

SENSITIVE CELESTIAJS.

Minister Blair Will Not BE Received BY
the Chinese Government
WASHINGTON, April s9.-The state
department announces that the Chinese
government has notified this govern
ment of its unwillingness to receive ex-
Senator Henry w. Blair as minister to
China This was all the information
obtainable last night Secretary Blaine
would not talk upon the subject, and
the Chinese minister sent down word
to callers that he had retired and his in
terpreter was not in the house. Mr.
Blair's SON expressed surprise when in
formed of the action of the Chinese gov
ernment- 1t was, he said. the first that
any of the family had heard Of It His
father, he felt sure, was not aware of
the situation.
1t Is well understood here that the
objection to Mr.. Blair was based upon
his utterances concerning the Chinese
question and that the republication of
extracts from his speeches produced
deep impression upon the minds of
prominent Chinese officials, which final
" resulted in the notification received
by the state department last evening.
The objection caused no excitement
here as this government recognizes the
right of a foreign power to express its
unwillingness to receive a minister who
is not entirely acceptable.

ROBBED The BANK.

The Ninth National Bank OF New York
Robbed of 100000 BY Hts Late Presi-
dent, Nov Deceased.
New YORK. April s0.-Rumors were
af1oat in Wall street yesterday after
noon of q defalcation in the Ninth ma
tional bank. which does business at 400
Broadway. 1t was said that the sur
plus of $500. 600 had entirely disappeared
and that the discovery was made through
the death of some one who had held
position of trust
A visit to the bank found the directors
In session. Soon after Bank Examiner
Hepburn arrived and was closeted with
them The directors were still Ia ses-
sion at a late hour yesterday afternoon
and nothing official could be learned,
but 1t was said that the loss was
through the operations of ]. T. Hill.
the late president of the bank, who died
about a month ago 1t was alleged that
the amount was about 500, 900. but that
the bank would not lose it all, being
secured in part by real estate. 1t was
reported that the solvency of the bank
was in no way impaired The banks
capital is $3.50, 900.
Late last night National Bank Ex-
aminer Hepburn reported: IAN ex-
animation of the Ninth national bank
reveals a defalcation of Si00, 900 charge
able to its former president While the
loss is serious it does not impair the
banks solvency or its ability to take
care of its customers. Its assets besides
the loss mentioned are of good charac-
ter, its discounts of exceptionally good
character. The bank has owned for
period of fifteen years eighty-fve acres
of land in the Twenty-third and
Twenty-forth wards of this city AS
national banks are not allowed TO
own real estate for other than bank
ing purposes, and when taken
for debt not longer than five
years, this real estate was charged OF
and has not appeared in the assets of
the bank for may years, during which
period it has largely appreciated in
value. That is now restored at valua-
ton of $500. and competent ap-
praisers value it much higher As EVIL
dence that the bank valuation is fully
warranted and within the limits, the
directors have executed an agreement
to take the property at said valuation.
This bank has been unfortunate but il
is perfectly sound and is entitled to and
should receive the support of its depos-
itOrS and the public"
