SAVING BANKS CLAIMS.

Washington. March 5.-The supreme
e0urt of the United States today heard
arguments in the case of Charles Davis
~. the Nlmira Savings bank. The case
X owes questions as 10 whether claimsof
eavings banks shall have preference over
cther claims. 1t appears that at the time
when this case was in he court of appeals
in May last there was more than S1S,-
100000 of savings banks deposits in
New York alone.
There are in charge of the comptroller
fCf the currency the assets of more than

|other states upon preferential statutes
land more are threatened. The money
|realized from the assets of failed nationals
is in the trea sury awaiting distribution
iby the comptroller to the creditors of the
banks and the United States is credi-
ltor. Decision in the present case will
determine what shall be done in all other
cases with such moneys and will not only
affect the savings banks, but the deposi-
tors of the failed national banks as well.
There is apparently a conflict between
the state law Of New York and the con-
Gressional statute bearing on the question.
The supreme court of New York and the
court of appeals Of that state have held
in the case now before the supreme court
of the United States that the state law
Twas valid and that the savings banks
were entitled to preference in the settle

ARMY BUDGET DEBATE.

Paris, March 5.-During the discussion
of the army budget in the chamber of
deputies today Nj. Roche. reporter of the
committee, said that France tried to place
her army. upon parity with those of
other nations, but, he added, since 1887
the military expenditures of Germany had
exceeded those of France. The German
military force, the speaker claimed, was
based upon numerical strength, and Ger
many now possessed an army ready to
fight at any moment.
Nj. Roche then proceeded to maintain
the superiority of the offensive system.
when he was interrupted by an offensive
remark from Socialist member. A great
uproar followed and some minutes elapsed
before NJ: Roche was able to proceed
He said that $4,000 men ought to be
serving in the French army, but as fact
only 404,0OO were serving. He then de-
manded that the French army should be
as well organized as the German army.
claiming that the economizing of n few
million francs might mean defeat in the
event of war; (Applause.)
Nj. Cayaignac, minister of war, re-
preached nj. Roche for exaggerating the
gravity of the situation, maintaining that
the French army only numbered about
10000 less than the German army. The
debate was then adjourned

rebels belonging to the Marco band have
yielded. Yageuy, the chief of the power
tul band of brigands which had been oper-
ating in the province of Matanzas has
yielded his commission. This, it is add
ed, puts an end to the uprising in that
province, which was the most formidable
on the whole island. General lie
Chambre has commenced operations
against the town of Baire, which is occu-
pied by the insurgents. In the province
of GuantanmO only four rebel bands, num-
bering in all about 1S0 men, now exist.
In the chamber of deputies today the
minister of war, General Dominguez, de-
MED the truth of the report that General
LeChambre had been killed. He also
said there was no truth in the rumors of
insurgents successes in Cuba.
Several corps of volunteers in Cuba
have offered to assist the governor general
against the rebels.

Ii HUNG CHANGES stTCcEss

London, March 5.-Dispatches to the
Times from Pekin confirm previous dis
patches outlining the success of Ii Hung
Chang at the Chinese capital. They say
that after tedious teegraphing through
the United tSates minister, Mr.. Charles
Denby, the text of Ii Hung Chang's
credentials as peace envoy have been ac-
cepted by the Japanese. Ii Hung Chang
was given. an audience by the dowager
empress of Chan yesterday in the pres
ence of the privy council, who heartily
supported the mission upon which the
vicerOy is engaged.
Prlnce kung, president of the Chinese
forelgn office, and uncle of the emperor
OF China, silenced all opposition by pre-
sentlng papers showing that the failure
OF the Chinese to repulse the Japanese
was due to the backward policy for which
they themselves were to blame. and ex-
onerating Ii Hung Chang, who spoke
freely about the condition of the empire.
Ihe powers of Ii Hung Chang to negoti-

and the actual commission being signed,
he left for Tien Tsn today, where the,
Japanese require him to trans-ship for
Hiroshima.
Mr.. John W. Foster the American ad-
wiser of the Chinese, will join the viceroy

WHISKY TRUST AFFAIRS
A Meeting of the Executive Committee
Price of Spirits Will Go Up.

Chicago, March 5.-The executive com.
mittee of the whisky trust met at the
office of General John McNulta, one of
the receivers, here today to consider
various matters of interest to stock.
holders. The committee was in session
all the afternoon and the only information
given to the public was that the executive
committee has been assured by the re-
organization committee that funds will
be ready to meet all rebate vouchers as
soon as such vouchers have been allowed
by the courts.
There is no doubt that the price of
spirits will be again advanced, probably
from IL to l cent per gallon. 1t is also
expected that an effort will be made to
meet the demands of the distributors who
are asking for the profit allowed them
under the Greenhut regime. The distribu-
tors, who were formerly allowed a 2-cent
reduction, have made a strong appeal for
a return to the old system. The receiv-
ers have so far declined to acceed to the
demands, but promise shortly to reach an
amicabe adjustment of the matter. The
amicable adjustment, it is believed, will
be reached by persistent lifting of prices
until a basis is reached on which the
trust will be justified in allowing the re-
bates demanded. Other important action
is also tADpcLeu at lOudJ
The troubles between the receivers of
the Whiskey Trust and the distributors
of their product has been averted. AT
the conference this afternoon it was de-
cided to allow the men who handle the
spirits cent gallon on car loads. This
was entirely satisfactory to both parties.
The members of the stockholders reor-
ganization and their attorneys will meet
in New York tomorrow:
1t is expected that the fact. that no as
sessment is levied on the stock will cause
something of a sensation. Jochati Ia
kamine, the president of the. Takamine
Fermenting company, has filed petition
in the United States court against the
receivers of the whisky trust. Takamine
alleges that in 1891 he entered into
contract with the trust for his ferment
ing process; he was to receive 20 per cent
of the amount saved. In July last the
company was satisfied that the new pro
cess was an improvement over the ole
process. When the receivers were ap
pointed they caused the distilleries to b.
changed back to the. old process. Th'
petitioner asks that the receivers eithel
be compelled to carry out their contract Of
release the petitioner. Counsel for re
ceivers were served with notices to an
swer the petition within the next 10 days

reichstag today the question of the al
legged abuses in the army arose, and Herr
Bebel and Volmar, Socialists. vigorously
denounced the regulations respecting the
lodging OF complaints made by soldiers.
of the illtreatment of soldiers by officers
and demanded reform in the procedure
of trying military cases. TIE minister
of war, General Won Schellendorff, in
reply said he must protest emphatically
against the allegations that the emperor
was opposed to reform in the procedure
of trying military cases in which military
men were involved. Continuing, the gen.
eral remarked that there had been a
marked decrease in the number of cases
of maltreatment and he was convinced
that the liking for the army and zeal for
the service were not diminished.

county and provides for a joint committee

cry and report its finding to the gen

Chicago council has bartered valuable
franchises to individuals and corpora
tions without the least regard to public
welfare and that the police department
is corrupt, and grants immunities to
criminals and shields the unlawful ele-
ment. The resolution is sweeping in its
charges and alleges crookedness in all
quarters.
