MANY APPLICATIONS

coming to the Secretary Of the
Treasury from Banks Which De-
sire to Become Depositories on De-
posit of United States Bonds as
Security, But They Are Urged Not
to Go Into the Market to Buy
Bonds.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. 1s,-The
secretary of the treasury up to noon
to-day had received a considerable
number of applications from national
banks for deposits of public funds un-
der the secretary's announcement OF
last night. The larger number of these
applications come from New York and
other eastern cities, although some
have been received from the large cit
les Of the middle west. Under the Sec
retarys offer, cash will be transferred
to national banks on deposits Of United
states bonds to their par value, except
on IS, on which 95 per cent will be al
lowed. and 2s, on which 80 per cent Will
be allowed. This Is an old rule, and Is
expected to secure the government
from possible loss by reason OF tempo
rary excess Of cash on hand on bonds
on deposit.
AS the receipts from internal reve-
nue. do not average quite u million dol
lars q day, It is expected that the eff
feet of the new order will be felt for
some days to come. 1t Is said that in
making allotments Of funds the. de-
partment will discourage the purchase
Of bonds on the part OF banks seeking
deposits, for the reason that II the
banks should go into the market for
this purpose 1t probably would put up
the price. which would be against the
interests Of the government, which IS
itself in the market for the purchase OF
about $5,00O.00O now remaining unoHer-
ed under the secretarys recent PROPOSE
ton to purchase $25,O0O,0OO.
At the close Of business to-day, the
amount OF bonds which had been Of
fered by national banks as security for
public deposits was about Sl5,OOOOOO.
These applications came from all
parts OF the country.

Charles Squire. OF New York, with a
bribc OF 100000 II he would permit the
cases pending against the Standard OIL
Company to go by default. II was
claimed that Mr.. Squire was the repre-
sentative Of +. b. Squire. secretary OF
the Standard OIL Company. Frank Has
kell and Frank Rockefeller, son Of the
president Of the company.
The decision diBmiSses the case on
the ground that the information does
not connect the Standard OIL Company
with the attempt at bribery stated
therein.
The court holds that 'the paper filed
in the clerks office should not be
passed on for the reason that the
charges are not presented in any rec
ognized form, requiring the action OF
this court, and for the further reason.
that no charge is made directly or In
directly, against the Standard Oil COM
pany Of attempting to bribe the attor-
ney general or any officer OF this court,
In the discharge of his duties in the
proceedings now pending In this court,
charging that company with contempt
IN not obeying the former order and
judgment Of this court. An attempt to
brlbe the attorney general in any mat
ter not pending In this court Is not
within its Jurisdiction in the first In
stance. Proceedings by Indictment
would be the proper course In such
cases. thnt the party may have trial by
fury II demanded"

: GENERAL IAWToN's DEATH
Dstailed-Like a Hero he Was Lad
ing His Non.


MANILA. Dec. 10. II p. m.-General
Lawton left home Monday night. hay-
ing returned from his northern opera.
tions Saturday to lead an expedition
through Maruulna valley. which has
been an insurgent stronghold through
out the war. The valley has several
times been invaded. but never held by
the Americans. General Geronimo was
supposed to have there the largest or
ganized force north of Manila and Gen.
Otis wished to garrison Mariqulna.
The night was one Of the worst Of
the season. A terrific rain had begun
and Is still continuing.
San Matco was attacked at o'clock
and a three hours fight ensued. This
resulted in but few casualties on the
American side apart from the death OF
General LGwton, but the attack was
difficult because OF the natural de-
fenses of the town.
General uawton was walking along
the firing line within three hundred
yards of a aharpshoOter's trench, oon-
spIcuous in the big white helmet he al-
ways wore, and a light yellow rain
coat. He was also easily distinguish
able because of his commanding stat
ure.
The sharpshooters directed several
close shots which clipped the grass
nearby. His stan officers called Gem
eral Lawton's attention to the danger
he was in, but he only laughed with his
usual contempt for bullets.
Suddenly he exclaimed:
II am shot!" clenched his hands in
desperate effort to stand erect, and fell
into the arms of n stan officer. Order
lies rushed across the field for surgeons
who dashed up Immediately. but their
efforts were useless. The body was
taken to a clump OF bushes and laid
upon stretcher, the familiar white he'll
met covering the face OF the dead gem
eral. Almost at this moment the cheers
Of the American troops rushing into
San Mateo were mIngling with the rihe
volleys. After the fight six stalwart
cavalrymen forded the river to the
town, carrying the litter on their sheul-
ders, the stan preceding with the colorS
and a cavalry escort following.
The troops filed bare-headed through
the building where the body was laid.
and many tear fell from the eyes Of
men who had long followed the intrepid
Lawton. The entire personal command
was stricken with grief, as though each
man had suffered personal loss. ow-
Ing 10 the condition Of the country,
which is impRssable so far rs vehicles
are concerned. the remains could not be
brought to Manila to-day. Mrs. Law
ton and the children are living In a gov
ernment residence, formerly occupied
by Spanish general.
