VIOLATED RULES
Women W. Admitted
to Offc5 rs Club.
Charges Made Against Captain Paul
Smith Not Fully ubStanttared
by investigation.

\ prominent member of the Officers
Club. in speaking of an article relative
to Captain Paul Smith which appeared
yesterday in an afternoon paper, said:
Colonel Soper called my attention
the other day TO a rule of the club
which prohibits women from entering
the club quarters except upon certain
evenings. which are set aside as La
dies Nights The Colonel stated he
that on the night before
Captain Smith sailed for Manila some
one possessing keys to the club en-
frances had been there with a crowd
of officers, including a number of wom-
en-, and expressed himself as quite in
dignant that a member should have so
violated the rules. Since then other
charges against Captain Smith have
been brought up. There is nothing
discovered as yet to substantiate the
charges"
The manner in which women were
found to have visited the club in the
wee sma' hours" of the morning was
by the discovery of one of the club
charge cards which was picked up
from the floor of one of the rooms the
morning of the day the Captain sailed
for Manila, which bore the superscrip-
ton OF a well-known actress. Since
this episode other stories have been
circulated, but nothing whatever has
been discovered to SubStantiate them,
except, perhaps, lack of system in
keeping the club accounts, which have
been left in a rather deplorable state.
Captain Smith left the combination of
the safe with one of the house commit
tee and also turned over his club keys,
which included a key to the outside
door and one to his private locker. In
this locker was a tin box in which the
Captain kept his club memorandum
and books, which also contained $40
cash. Captain Smith merely continued
the lack of a system of bookkeeping
which his predecessors had passed
down to him and this accounts for the
lack of confidence which some club
members have in him.
AS to the charge that Captain Smith
has given away valuable Kalakaua
relics, it is stated that there never
nave been IN the CLUB quarters any
valuable relics except, perhaps, the
heavy pieces of royal furniture. All
the members have been in the habit
of giving as souvenirs to the visiting
army officers the blank invitation
cards and stationery which formerly
belonged to Kalakaua. In clearing out
a cupboard some time ago, Captain
Smith secured a large amount of this
and gave it away promiscu-
ously to the club visitors.
Some prominent members feel that
the charges against Captain Smith are
as yet unsubstantiated and there is
consequently no call for censuring him.
except in the matter of allowing wom-
en- to invade the quarters after the
club was supposed to have been locked
up for the night.

A GLOOMY HOLIDAY
England Has Other Things Than
 Festivities on Hand
A Feeling of Grief and Disappoint- ment That Prevails the Length Breadth of the Land" Which British Grit Cannot Overcome.

London, Dec. 21.-The social festivi- ties which usually mark this season of the year in London have never been so few. Gayeties are quite unable to dis pei the gloom overhanging all classes of persons. The brave show kept up by the majority of the persons that voice public opinion is merely an in stance of the grit of the British race. But that grit is powerless to allay the ment that prevades the length and breadth of the land. That grief and that disappointment are not confined to the expressing of regrets.
 The pent-up criticism of the mili- tary authorities is finding vent in quarters that heretofore have studious- ly avoided, as premature. any stric- lures on either the war office or the generals in the field. Unless some striking change for the better soon marks the course of the British arms there bids fair to break over the head of the government a storm of indigna- tion such as has not been since the war in the CTimea. That such a move ment is not without cause is shown by the fact that the authorities have all ready decided that a reorganization of the war office is absolutely necessary, and that it will not be delayed a day longer than can be avoided. It can scarcely be done, however, until hos tilities cease.
 The St. James Gazette, this week, commenting on the Canadian contin- gent. says: "They have shown that their long home training and colonial campaigning experience have not been lost on them, and they are get ting their reward in being pushed to the front We should like to see a lit tie more notice of this taken in the London press. The colonists are in- tensely loyal, but they are a little sensitive. and appropriate notice of the work they are doing would be good imperial cement"
 General Montgomery Moore, formerly in command in Canada, has been se- Iected to succeed General Kelly-Kenny at Aldershot, where the latter has been in charge of the mobilization.

When you draw a bucket of water, and he squeaks for it, he will get mad if you don't get him a drink. He will lay it up for you. He is not at all a vicious elephant. After he finished with me he got right down on his knees and whimpered to his keeper Johnston, when he ran up. What made him angry was that a grizzly bear was put next to his platform and boards were laid across connecting it. He took offense at the bear and was in bad temper"

 There is no extradition treaty be- tween the sultan of Morocco and the United States government, but Consul General Gummere made inquiry as to whether the sultan would consent. as an act of grace, to surrender Hunter if the evidence was sufficient. and it is understood that a favorable response was given.

10 STUDY STATEHOOD
Distinguished Visitors Coming
 to Arizona
Governor Murphy Left Washington For Phoenix Last Night Accom- panied By Members of the Senate and House and Other Officials.

Washington, Dec. 21.-(Specia!)-A distinguished party left this evening to visit the territories of Arizona and New Mexico. It included Senator shoup, of Idaho, chairman of the com mittees on territories; Senator Clark of Wyoming. Chairman Hull, of the house committee on military affairs; Com missioner Herman, Of the land office; Governor Murphy, of Arizona, and Governor Otero of New Mexico.
 Governor Murphy thought it would be helpful to the chances of the statehood bills if some of the members of the house and senate visited the territories and inves- tigated the actual conditions existing in them. The governor said today:
 "The bills which have been intro duced this session for the admission of the two territories as states should not meet the slightest difficulty in being passed We have repeatedly come to congress asking state rights, but in the last, it must be admitted, We were bas- ing our claims on facts that could scarcely be considered satisfactory. But in the past year, due to unprece- dented business prosperity Arizona, and may include New Mexico as well, has made wonderful advancement in manufacturing, mining and agricultu- raI industries and population has grown accordingly"
 When asked how the admission Of these two territories would affect polit- icaI conditions, Governor Murphy said: NO difference will be produced in the house or senate, for the representa- tion for New Mexico is democratic and Arizona is safely republican. It will simply give an equal gain to both par ties"

WOULDN'T RECEIVE SANTOS SHIP

New Orleans, Dec. 21.-The British barkentine c. w. James. from Santos, has arrived at Ship Island, off Biloxi, Miss. The James was sixty-three days out from Santos, and all on board are in good health, but the health au- thorities would not allow her to enter Biloxi because of the prevalence of the bubonic plague at Santos. The mayor and board of aldermen of Biloxi ap- pealed to the secretary of the treasury to order all vessels from Santos and other ports infected with the bubonic plague and bound to gulf ports to the Dry Tortugas, Fla, for treatment.
 The health officers of Harrison coun- ty and the Mississippi state board of health join in this request. The Louis- jana board of health will be requested to join in it.

AMENABLE TO STATE LAW
Internal Revenue Stamp Is No Pro-
 lection From Prosecution.

Washington, Dec. 1-Commissioner Wilson of the internal revenue bureau, has reafirmed his former ruling to the effect that persons who engage in the sale of alcoholic liquor. even though such business is in violation of the law of their state, are nevertheless. re- quired to pay a special tax under the internal revenue laws of the United States. The stamp, however, issued to them is not a license, and does not protect them from prosecution, con- viction and sentence under the state law.
 Where a brewer ships bottled beer marked for delivery to persons who had ordered it, but cOnsigns and way bills the beer in general terms to his agent. instead of shipping it to the persons. the commissioner of internal revenue has held that the sale is made at the time and place of the actual de- livery of this beer by the agent to these customers, and that the special tax must be paid by the brewer at that place.

zoLA ON MOB IMPRESSIONS.

London, Dec. 21.-The Paris cor respondent of the Morning Post tele- graphs the substance of an interview with Emile Zola, explaining why French opinion is on the side of the Boers. NJ. Zola, while expressing sen timents friendly to Great Britain, said:
 "The great mass of the French peo- pie are unacquainted with the details, of the more or less complicated dispute which eliminated in war. Fl the eyes of the unreasoning mob, Q powerful nation is assailing a small, weak peo- pie. The impulses of the mob, al though unreasoning, are frequently generous Herein is the explanation of public opinion in France, Germany and Russia. I am sorry to say that the same condition exists even in the Unit ed States"

HURLED BY AN ELEPHANT.
Jolly of the Hagenback Show Throws a
 Man Through an Open Door.

Baltimore, Md, Dec. 21.-John Myers, general utility man at the Zoo in the Cyclorama building, was fired through an open door today by Jolly, the Hagen back elephant, and is now at the city hospital with a broken collar bone and other injuries. Only yesterday Myers was attacked by the baby leopard. He endeavored to move it when the ami nal fastened it's teeth and claws in his hand and tore it open. Myers had the wound dressed and fearing hydro phobia arranged this afternoon to take the Pasteur treatment. The elephant, however, hurried matters a little. My CTS tried to pass the elephant while carrying bucket of water when, with out warning, the elephant lifted him bodily and hurled him through the door, Myers said subsequently,:

NO NEWS BAD NEWS.

London, Dec. 21.-There was no news from South Africa today other than fragments and disconnected stories of past events. This silence is having the natural effect of creating forebodings. The duke of Marlborough, who is a lieutenant in the Oxfordshire Yeo- manry and who has volunteered for service in South Africa, will take with him fifteen men and horses of his troop. He will personally furnish the equipment for these men. The earl and ViscoUnt Galway are among the other members of the aristocracy who have paign against the Boers.

Republican Campaign to
 Open at Once
IA NEW COMMITTEE
Philadelphia's Contribution to Be the First Money Expended = Chair man Hanna Will Not Cause the Hat to Be Passed This Winter. Plan for the Distribution of Campaign Literature.

Washington, Dec. 21.- Chairman Hanna has decided to begin the cam paign of 1900 at once He has selected a committee consisting of Controller Charles G. Dawes. First Assistant Post master-General P. s. Heath, Secretary Dick and others, who will have in charge the distribution of campaign literature this. winter. The subscrip- tion of S10e00O received from Philadel- phia is to be expended by that com mittee. Throughout the negotiations with the representatives of different cities which desired to obtain the na- tional convention, Chairman Hanna and the leaders insisted on a subscrip- ton of considerable size as a pre- requisite.
 Mir. Hanna announced that he should not pass the hat" this winter but that it is absolutely essential that some money should be forthcoming in order to at once start the campaign of educa- tion and organization.
 The vote which turned the scale for Philadelphia in the national committee was that of Richard C. Kerens from Missouri.
 The first republican convention held in Philadelphia was in 1856, when the party had its birth as a national or ganization. In 1872 Grant was renomi- mated there for president by accIama- ton, and Henry Wilson was nominated for vice-president after a sharp con- test with Schuyler Colfax. The remem- brance of the Grant case had, it is said, something to do with MT. Keren's de- ond republican president to be nomi- mated by exclamation should go before the people with the indorsement of a convention held in Philadelphia.
 It is fortunate that the coming na- tional convention is likely to be devoid of excitement. The hotel accommoda- tions in Philadelphia are meager and hardly sufficient to accommodate or dinary transient traffic. If the con- vention we're to last week, as is some times the case, the hotels would not only be packed to suffocation, but hundreds of delegates would be obliged to seek such accommodations as they could find outside. Realizing that, the Philadelphia delegation has offered the national committee free transporta- tion for all delegates to Atlantic City, which is only fifty minutes by rail. If that proposition is carried out it may be expected that the great seaside re- sort will take almost the overflow from the city hotels and the convention will practically be transferred nightly from Philadelphia to the sea.
