The crime for which John D. Smith,
the man arrested in this city last Fri
day, is said to be wanted by the au-
thorities Of Clancy, Mont, is cruelty to
his nine-year-old sen. A reporter on
The G l o e learned from a railroad
man that Smith had had some trouble
with the authorities about one of his
children, and that he understood the
authorities deemed 1t justiiable to
charge the lads death to Smith.
Chief Schweitzer has received a re-
quest from the Montana authorities to
hold Smith pending the arrival Of ex-
tradition papers in the possession of a
deputy sheriff, who is expected in ST.
Paul today.
Smith has claimed ever since his ar
rest that he never had any trouble with
any one in Montana out of which a
murder charge could arise. When con-
fronted yesterday with the foregoing
information Smith made an explana-
ton which throws some light on the
situation. Said he:
IF my boy is dead the authorities of
Clancy are the ones responsible for his
death. They came and dragged him
away from his mother when he was
sick in bed, under the pretense that
he was not getting proper care, and
instead Of taking the boy to a hospital.

RUSSIA AND FRANCE WANT MORE.
Their Greed for Oriental Territory
Still Unsatisfied.

PEKIN March 6.-on Friday last, Yano
Fumio, the Japanese minister to China, de-
manded official signed assurances Of the
payment of the indemnity due next May.
The Chinese government instructed Yang
Yu, the Chinese minister at st. Petersburg,
to urge Russia to evacuate Port Arthur.
Russia deferred a decision, alleging that tho
presence Of Russian warships at Port Ar
thur was beneficial to China and favorable q
peace in the Orient.
Russia is now opposing the Anglo German
loan. Nj. Pavloff the Russian charge daft
faires, lodged formal protest last Thurs
day and demanded a quid pro quo. The
details of the Russian demand are not yet
made public, but Russia's attitude is re-
garded as inimeal to peace in the far East.
On Friday, NJ. Gerar. the French minister
to China made similar complaint, with
corresponding demands for compensation in
the South. England and Germany are now
regarded as having obtained their legitimate
aspirations and Russia and France desire to
secure theirs.
The Chinese acknowledge that the British
late loan negotiations were disinterested, and
calculated to advance China's welfare and to
maintain her independence.

WASHINGTON, March 6.-The Span
1sh situation developed two new phases
today WHEEL it became known that the
Spanish government had formally re-
Lee from his post at Havana, with
which request the United States had
courteously, but firmly, refused to COM
ply; also that the Spanish government
had suggested the improperly of send
ing relief supplies to the Cuban recon-
centrados on the cruiser Montgomery
and the gunboat Nashville, to which
suggestion the United States had given
a like answer in the negative.
The first intimation of these steps
came in brief and explicit cable dis
patch from Madrid. Prior to its re-
ceipt, however, the authorities here had
been fully conversant with the facts,
although no intimation had been al
lowed to get to the public on either
subject. The disclosures from Madrid
left no further ground for reticence in
Washington, and after a conference at
the White house between the president.
Assistant Secretary Day, of the state
department, and Secretary Long, of
the navy department, the following au-
thorized statement was handed to the
Associated Press by Judge Day as
comprising everything that was to be
said by the administration on the sub
ject:
Judge Day Confirms.
AS to the Associated Press dispatch
of March s, received this morning, the
state department authorizes the follow
Ing statement:
The president will not consider the re-
call Of Gen. Lee He has borne himself
throughout this crisis with judgment, idel-
ity and courage, to the presidents entire
satisfaction.
As to the supplies for the relief of the
Cuban people all arrangements have been
made to carry consignment this week from
Key West by one of the naval vessels.
whichever may be best adapted and most
available for the purpose, to Matanzas and
Sagua.
Although the officials here are non-com-
the request for Gen. Lees recall was made
at least day two ago, and that the
Spanish government, after receiving the
reply of the state department, has not in
sisted either upon Lees recall or upon its
contention that the relief supplies should
not be sent to Cuba in naval vessels.
Beyond the foregoing those who had
participated in the conference at the
White house would not discuss the
subject, and it was stated positively
that the authorized statement COM
prised everything that would be given
to any one.
The advices from Madrid, together
with the authoritative statement here,
left no room for doubt as to what had
occurred. The request for Gen. Lees
recall is understood to have come with
in the last few days, and doubtless

Monitors to BE Tested.


PHILADELPHIA, Pa, March 8-To-
day was repetition of last Sunday in
the general activity at League island
navy yard. WOrkmen We're busily en-
gagged upon the cruiser Minneapolis, the
monitor Miantonomah and the ram
katahd1n. In addition, work was go
ing on In the mould loft, and several
forges were in operation in the black
smith shop. The utmost reticence pre-
vailed among the officers, sailors and
Workmen at the yard, and it was i'm
possible to obtain any official informa-
t1on as to the detail of the work going
on. 1t was evident, however, that all
work was being pushed as rapidly as
possible
The work on the Minneapolis and
M1antonomah was all below decks, and
was said to consist OF repairs and in
spect1on OF the machinery. In the
Katahdin the standards for the rapid
firing guns were being erected, and
some small repairs were going on be-
low. The work in the mould loft con-
sisted OF attention to small boats and
spars.
The immense crowds which f1ocked To
the naval station last Sunday were
largely increased today, but no one was
allowed to get close to the warships
Sentries were posted at the entrance
to the Wharves, and only workmen and
those on business were allowed inside
the lines
The old single turret monitors in the
back channels, relics of the late war,
were an attraction to thousands, and
their decks were crowded all day.
1t was reported that five of these will
be taken out of their berths as soon as
possible and tested with modern guns
aboard. Those now in the turrets are

formation as to the trial of these boats
came from one of the caretakers and
was not official. The boats which 1t is
said will be tried are the Montauk. Ia
son, Manhattan, Lehigh and Canonicus.
The purpose of the trial with modern
guns is to determine whether they will
maintain their center of gravity suffi-
GENTLY well enough to be available for
use in an emergency.
1t was also reported today that the
cruiser Columbia, now in dry dock, had
received orders to sail for Key West
as soon as possible. This could not re-
