Special to The st. Paul Globe.
WASHINGTON, D. c.. March 2S-Quite a
number Of prominent st. Paul lawyers and
bankers are lowering around the department
OF justice and the war department and there
are many reports out about some startling
developments In the now famous Southall
case
Among those who have been at the depart
ments today are Gen. John B. Sanborn,
Judge Lusk, A. G. Anderson, Senator Davis
and one two others.
1t is limited here that Southalis certificates
were not altogether floated by him during the
past three months. 1t Is said that after
certain large holders of the worthless checks
became satisfied that the paper was no good
they began to unload the same on unsuspect-
ing people.
One thing is assured. the government will
fight every proposition to pay a cent to
the Southall victims.
A. G. Anderson president Of the st. Paul
National bank, said tonight II suppose the
fact that l happened to be in Washington
just now has led people to think that our
bank was one of the institutions that was
caught. We have not dollar Of the paper,
or at least we had not just before ! left
home some three weeks ago. Before | left
the national bank examiner came around.
He asked me If had any Of Southall's
checks, and he was given access to all our
books. Since coming here to spend few

Southall business than ever before

Mr.. Southall still occupies a place In
the boys ward at the county Jail. He
IS not looking much the worse for wear.
He looks very much better than he did
when he was first incarcerated and he
says that he feels better
The constant thought that I might
at any time be brought here was very
much more wearing than the fact of
being here is, he explained in answer
to q comment on how we'll he looked.
The prisoner has quit making efforts
to get bail, if he ever sincerely made
any. He has come to the conclusion
that if he should be liberated on these
charges he would be re-arrested on
others, and it isn't worth while to go
to the trouble of asking his friends to
sign his bail bond. Perhaps he could
not get them to do it If he should ask
Them.
a change has come over the en-
gineer's department and Mr.. Du Shane
yesterday concluded that he might talk
a little about the SouthaI affair. as
several other people had been talking
about his being in the office when they
did business with Southall. He does
not think that there have been any
time checks issued from the chief en-
gineer's office since 1890. He was asked
how II came about that Southall was
permitted to remain in the office after
lie IdQ DSSIl lSl Oul VI lIlS SCl VIC. liz
said:
Il had no authority to fire him out, so
long as Col. King allowed him to remain
here l had nothing to say about 1t. 1t Is
true that Southall had an interview with
Lieut.. Keller and myself the lieutenant hav
ing been sent on by Col. King. He was
penitent; he showed all the signs of a man
full of penitence and ready to bring forth
good works to demonstrate good faith in
the future. He destroyed $4,000 worth of
his checks in our presence, and was allowed
to remain IN the office until such time as
he could settle his wrong doing and make
restitution. We supposed that that was
what he was doing. 1t was not for me to
say that he should get out. 1t was sup
posed that within a few months he would
clear up his shortage and retire. never
dreamed that he was doing anything else.'
But they say that your desk was near

ing. I do not think it such an extraordinary
thing that he was allowed time to make
good his speculations. 1t has often been
done. We could not advertise it to the
world, when the man seemed bent on max

Of waiting, as was at first supposed, in

to Spantsh-American war, Is really
intended as a practical display Of
American sympathy with Great Brit
aims Chinese policy.
The American and British admirals,
the dispatch says, have had frequent
interviews.
LONDON, March 2S.-A statement
has been obtained in g. competent
quarter respecting British intentions in
China, in view Of the naval movements
On the far East. It is admitted that
the British policy Of maintaining the
integrity of China and the equal COM
mercial status Of ali nations has been
abandoned, owing to the concessions
made to Russia and Germany. It Is
added:
THE only course left Great Britain
is to follow suit, obtain equal advan-
tages with the other powers and Sc
cure adequate compensation In her own
interests. This explains the British
naval activity at Hong Kong and else
where. Therefore q movement upon
the part Of Great Britain may be an
ticipated in the near future.
''It Is deemed improbable that Japan,
single-handed. or still less in conjunc-
ton with China, will combat the pol
icy of the European powers. She will
probably rest content with compro-
mise satisfactory to her pride and Sc
curing the position due her as the fruit
of her victories over China"

Chinese, who regard the concessions to
Russia as the beginning Of the end.
There are many complaints Of the at
titude Of Ii Hung Chang. 1t is as
serted by those knowing inner Chinese
affairs that since his visit to st. Peters,

A high Chinese official, whose patriot
ism is unquestioned, describes Ii Hung
Chang as a traitor. AS yet Japan has
made no protest.
