LUCKY REAL ESTATE AGENTS
NOT SUBJECT TO SPECIAL TAX IN
LESS THEY ARE BROKERS'.
Important Ruling by the Commits
to BE Allotted This Week.

WASHINGTON, July 23.-Representative
Dingley of Maine, who has been in the city
as one of the members of the Canadian
American commission, when asked to-day,
What do you think will be the solving or
the Philippine problemg' replied: mo one
can 4ell at this time. Events adjust them
selves and sometimes In a sudden ana I'M
expected manner. The situation Will I'M
doubtedly be taken care of as it arises, ana
L would not like to venture an opinion IN
advance of what will be done. l feel sure,
however that there is no foundation Tor the
talk of alleged interference in whatever pro-
gramme this government may adopt for the
Philippines / believe the rumored protests
of the powers of Europe will be found 10
be merely unauthorized reports, and will not
materialize into anything definite. The con-
duct of the Germans at Manila is subject TO
criticism, but their action, l believe, Will
not go beyond bounds.
Il do not pay any attention to the alleged
attitude of Europe protesting against the
sending of Commodore Watson's fleet to the
coast of Spain Such a position would be
untenable. This government is at war with
Spain, and we have a right to strike her
where and when we please. 1t remains Tor
us alone to say whether we will send a fleet
to Spain OF course. if we contemplated
Selling and holding Spanish territory on the
continent of Europe, it. might cause dis
ouietude among the powers for fear that
the balance of power might pc olstuIpetp'
ject to the harassing OF the coast ana coIn-
merce by fleet.

Way TO Surrender.
HIS. ARMY FORCED TO RETREAT
WITH Loss OF FORTY-ONE SLAIN
-. AND MANY WOUNDED.
Doubt Cast on the Authenticity of the
Letter Received by shafter and
Signed with Garcia's Name.

WASHINGTON, July 23.-Doubt is cast
on reports OF recent exciting events among
the Cubans at or near Santiago owing to
TIE failure of General Shafter to make any
report on them, and, inasmuch as he has
made less important subjects matter for
dtspatehes,xit is hard to understand why he
SHOULD fail to mention an event of such i'm
portance as the reported attack by Garcia
on Spanish troops on their way to
Surrender to Shafter. The War De-
p.lrtment is now, while keeping a
), close eye on General MiIess expedition
looking with interest for detailed mail re-
ports from General Shafter telling of the
engagement preceding and leading up TO the
surrender of Santiago. 1t was reported to-
Day that Colonel j. j. Astor, of Skaters
staff. was due in Washington bringing with
him the full capitulations signed by the
commissioners, and it was expected that
SKATERS preceding reports would accom-
pl!ny them. However, up to the close of Of
efi5e hours, which, to-day, to the relief of the
hard worked clerks was o'clock, for the
fist time in many months, the officer did
nDt appear, and the department does not
Know where he is. The only word that has
ceme from Shafter over night was the state
nsent that General Duffield left Santiago for
home yesterday and that General Corbin's
son, who was reported to be better, would
leave for home as soon as he could be trans
ported safely He and General Duffield are
said to have suffered the only pronounced
cases of ye1owNfeFer in tue. American camp.
1t is stated. pasttiveiy at the War Depart
ment that the letter which General Garcia
Isl represented to have addressed to General
SCATTER, announcing his withdrawal from
further cooperation with the American
troops. has not vet. reached the War Depart
ment. The officers are inclined to believe
that If the letter really exists, and of that
1keS. have little doubt. it will reach Wash

How an Anderson Man Got Into the
Insurgent Army.
Special to the indianapolis Journal.
ANDERSON. Ind, July 2s.-General
Charles Chatham. OF this city, an American
in command of Cuban troops and one of the
members of the Cuban Cabinet, was heard
from to-day for the first time in a year.
1t was reported that he had been killed.
He states that 1t has been impossible for
him to communicate with his people be-
cause he has been in the interior for the
past six months fighting Spaniards. He
says the reports of the destruction of the
poor half-starved ard ragged Cubans were
wild with JOY. He feared that there would
be q clash between the United States au-
thoritfeS and Cuban buShwhackerS, whom,
he says, Gomez cannot control. He says he
recently had talk with Gomez, who stated
that the Cuban army now numbers about
nifty thousand armed men. Chatham was
as an expert. The Spanish government
owned and controlled all of the railroads on
the island and his work was so satisfactory
that he was appointed to the military office
Of captain and put in charge of transporta-
ton. When the war came on he was a
Cuban sympathizer, but was forced into
Spanish service and placed in charge of
transportation He formed COM
bnation with Maceo and turned
over to him many carloads of
supplies. At last he ran a big trainload
of ammunition into MaceO'S hands and had
to escape to save his life He came home,
got passports which are entered here and
then returned to Maceo, who sent him to
and he was later made member of the
Cuban Cabinet

CONVICT SPAULDING WEEDS.
The Bride Was the Embexz1er's Sec
rotary, Sarah Ervine.

CHICAGO, July 23.-Charles Warren
Spaulding, the convicted ex-president of the
Globe Savings Bank, and Sarah Louise Err
vine his former stenographer, were married
here to-day. The ceremony was performed
by a clergyman, whose name the parties
interested will not divulge. Spaulding is
serving an indeterminate sentence in the
Joliet penitentiary for wrecking the Globe
Savings Bank, but for two weeks has been
in the Cook county Jail. where he was
brought on a writ of habeas corpus in
order to act as a witness in suit growing
out of the banks affairs. Miss IRVINE is
the young woman upon whom Spaulding
lavished money and property before the
collapse of the bank, and they have been
anxious to marry ever since Spaulding s
former wife secured a divorce. The jail
authorities refused to permit the ceremony
without the permission of Warden Nc
Claughey, of the penitentiary. After con-
sulting the Governor, Major McClaughey
gave his consent and SpauIding to-day pro-
cured the license The place where the
marriage occurred cannot be learned. Two
Young men from the office of Spauldng' S
attorneys were the witnesses.
An hour after the ceremony the ex-banker
was back in his cell in Jail and the bride
had gone away with her father. In the
license Spaulding's age is given as fifty
five and that of Miss Ervine as thirty.

VICTORIA, B c., July 23.-The steamer

passengers brought down close to one mil
lion dollars, but talk with the passengers
leads to the belief that this amount is exag-
gerated. Most of the passengers came down
the Yukon on the steamer Seattle, No. IL.
They complain bitterly of the monopolistic
tendencies of certain trading corpora tions
doing business in the Northwest, and say
that the corporations are trespassng on the
rights and privileges of individuals to such
an extent that some decisive action will
have to be taken by the authorities at
Washington. Nothing of the alleged priva-
teer was seen by the passengers of the Gar
rome.
The most conservative estimate places the
amount of gold brought by the Garonne' 5
passengers at half million dollars. DR..

NOT SUBJECT TO SPECIAL TAX.
Ruling of Interest to Dealers i'm Real
Estate.

WASHINGTON, July 2S-In a decision
made to-day the commissioner of internal
revenue holds that there is no pro-
vision in the new revenue act under which
special tax can be held to be imposed on
real estate agents, or any person or firm for
simply buying or selling real estate on com
mission, either for themselves or for others;
also that the law is aimed at a class of men
known generally in the community as brok-
ers. who, whether this is their sole occupa-
ton or is merely business done by them in
connection with their other business), nego-
tiate purchases or sales of stocks. bonds.
notes, etc, either for themselves or
for others. The decision holds that
fair construction of the law does
not make any man a broker
necessarily who invests his surplus earn
ings in stocks, bonds, notes, etc, but does
not negotiate purchases or sales thereof
"A man is a broker under this act" it con-
cluoes, who negotiates purchases or sales
of stocks, bonds, notes, ETC., in the course of
business, and this applies to real estate
agents, insurance agents, attorneys or per-
sons, or firms who, IN connection with their
profession or occupation, make it a regular
part of their business to negotiate purchases
of stocks, bonds, notes, ETC., either for
themselves or Others"
