AMERICA WILL CLAIM
 WHAT IT HAS TAKEN
Special Cable to The Age Herald Copyright
 ed by w. w. Hearst.

London. Aug. 4.-Congressman Grosvenor, of Ohio, said today that, while there was a wide variety of opinion in the United States over the conditions of peace he was sure the American flag would never be hauled down from any place where it had once been hoisted in conquest.
 II do not mean," he said, "that because it will eventually be hoisted at Manila. it will necessarily remain over the whole of the Philippines. I believe the question as to how much territory we may need there can well be trusted to commission. I am doubtful about the ability of the Cuban patriots to establish that stability of gov ernment that we promised, and which the world will expect of us.
 T am hopeful that the better element of Cubans, under a provisional government, which the United States will establish for them, will seek annexation. Thus, with Cuba and Porto Rico, we would be able to control that corner of the world.''

His is the Most Expensive Southern
 Court.
A SEARCHING INVESTIGATION

Special Dispatch to the ACe-Herald.
 Washington, Aug. 1.-The department of justice Eis eefpin having trouble with some of the .-yyzyhdssioners in north Alabama appointed by . o5ge John Bruce.
 Commissioner c. D. Alexander of Attal- la, whose accounts re~somet.me ago suspended for apparent frauds against the government, has recently been investigated by department Of justice examiners, whose report, announced today, alleges that Commissioner Alexander has, by ev- cry system that couold be resorted to, faI- siied his accounts, thereby defrauding the government.
 Suggests Retiring the Judge
 One of his methods, says the report, was to give to witnesses before his court larger certificates for mileage and per diem than they were entitled to, and then buy tie certificates at large discount. His prac- tice was to buy all the witness certificates for sale; to adjourn his court from day to day, when he could have disposed of the case or cases in one day, for the above stated purpose and to get an extra per diem for himself for holding court.
 Most Expensive in south
 Heretofore when United States mar shas and district attorneys, as well IS the clerks of the courts, got fees in lieu of salaries, crooked commissioners were necessary to hunt up cases that the above officers could make their maximum fees: but now, as none but clerks of the courts get fees, this system ought to have ini- proved by the appointment of good men as commissioners, and the courts presided over by Judge Bruce could and wou q have been no longer classed the most expensive courts in the south.
 Stuffed Mileage Certificates
 The system of opening and holding the courts under Judge Bruce has been such as to give the clerks their maximum fe1s. The clerks and judge, says the report, have grown very rich since Judge Bruce went on the bench in Alabama One con- gressional investigation has been had into these matters in Alabama. and a more searching investigation will be asked.
 If nothing better can be done," the report concludes, Judge Bruce should be put upon the retired list"
