Che Foo, July 13.-The situation IN
Tien Tsin is desperate. The command.

possible that they can be sent. Germany

The Secretary Of the Navy today ap-
proved the findings and sentence Of the
court-martial which tried First Lieut..
James W. Lynch. United States Marine
Corps. at Cavite Philippine Island. on
the charge Of drunkenness and other
charges growing out Of the alleged forci-
bic entrance with two enlisted men into
the house Of a Filipino citizen. On his
own statement Lieutenant Lynch was
convicted Of the charge of drunkenness.
but was acquitted Of the other charges.
He was sentenced to lose ten numbers
i'm his grade. and by the action Of the
Secretary this sentence stands.
The attorneys for Lieutenant Lynch
raised the point that as the Philippine Isl
ands were territory of the United States
the trial was contrary to the statute which
provides that naval COUrts-martial shall
not be ordered in the waters or in the ter
ritory Of the United States except by di-
recuon Of the President or by a comman-

THE DISTRICT ESTIMATES.

An Early Report by the House Ap-
preparations Committee Expected.
The District Appropriations Committee
Of the House is at work on the estimates
and recommendations presented 10 them
by the Commissioners. and it is under
stood that their report viii soon be ready.
Commissioner Wight stated to a Times
reporter this morning that he expected
the report would be ready within a day NJ
two. Meantime, he said the Commission
ers we're going ahead as though all the
money they wanted had been apprcpria-
ted
II is understood at tho District Building
that it is the intention Of the House Com
mittee 20 treat the estimates fairly and
not enter upon process Of sea ing them
down extensively.
The hope is held cut also that the big
deficit which was figured out some time
ago may be made not 10 appear by holding
over the work on certain street extensions
until the beginning OF the next fiscal year.
For instance the work authorized on the
Sixteenth STREET extension if undertaken
now would consume a sum about equal to
the threatened shortage. Hence. by de-
laying this Improvement until July the
cost would not be chargeable against the
revenues Of the present fiscal year. By
some such plan, and with liberal appro-
priations for the fiscal year ending in 1901
the District could pun through without as
suming a floating debt
It is expected that the estimates OF the
Commissioners may be reduced somewhat
at certain points. This is usually what oc-
ours in the framing OF appropriation bills
but il is not expected that they will be
reduced TO anything like the volume Of the
deficit which was anticipated. few days
ago.
