A MATTER OF MONEY
Was at the Bottom of BaIlington
Booths Dismissal
CONSTANT DRAIN ON AMERICAN FUNDS
To Bolster Up Other Sections Of the
Army Threa.sned to Cripple the
Work in This County. So Bal
lington Called a Halt.

EEw YORK, March 0.-It is stated on
the authority of Ballington Booth that
the immediate cause OF his dismissal
was His refusal to contribute further
to the support of the Salvation army In
foreign countries.
Dufing the commanders term OF Of
fee he sent 10 Tndis s4.l0o; to the IN
ternational headquarters in London
s37, $40; to France, slO,6s7; to Ianada,
rs a loan, $1,000, and to Europe, iof
various other purposes, including trade
baiauees and the Darkest England
army scheme, ss4 ,55o, making total
sum of sli3,477.
III January Gen. Booth csbled for
additional finds. and Commander
Booth replied that he could not grant
the request. He also informed inter-
national headquarters that the Amer
lean branch must refuse in future to
part with funds raised in this country,
as the drain on the New York treasury
threatened to cripple the work OF saliva
tion here.
This declaration, coupled with the
remuneration by the Booths of ther
British citizenship, caused great stil
| in London.
Gen. Booth, TO whom the matter wa.
referred, issued the order of recall
without waiting for detailed state
ment from Ballington Booth.
The general acted, 1t is stated, large
ly on evidence furnished by Conimandei
Booths military secretary, Col. Eadie
who reported that Ballington was
Americanizing the American army.
Now the ARMY Of this country is spill
in twain, and the revolt has spread te
Canada, which is under the jurisdic
tion OF Herbert Booth. Herbert is OF al
arbitrary disposition, and harsh Is hi
methods. A bulky pamphlet has beer
published in Toronto by ex-Brigadiel
p. W. Philpott and ex-Adjutant A. w
Roffe, giving an exhaustive account o
the Salvationist troubles In Canads
and Herbert Booths tyrannical meth
ods. They say that no less than l,20'
officers have resigned; that over l0
corps, posts and stations have beel
broken up, and that the entire Cana
dian force Is on steady decline.

Enlist the Naval Militia, Etc.
WASHINGTON, March "a mistaken

Senator German will make on his mo-
ton to reconsider the bill that re-
Gently passed the senate authorizing
the president, in case 1t becomes
necessary, to enlist the naval
militia and charter ships for trans
ports, is abroad. MIR. German
says that he does not intend to discuss
the subject of the revenue of the gov
ernment In connection with his mo-
ton. lie places his opposition on en-
tirely different grounds. He looks
upon the power granted in the bill as
unusual and uncalled for under exist
ing conditions. For that reason only
does he think the senate should recon-
slider its action and refuse to pass the
bill.
