THE SICK MAN SLOW
In Paying for Damages Done to Mis-
 sionary Property

Washington, April 15-It is learned on undoubted authority that the negotions for the payment of indemnity demanded for the destruction of American mission ary property in Turkey during the Ar menian massacrees in 1895 have reached their logical conclusion. Minister Strauss secured the promise of the sultan that in- demnity amounting to about s90.000 should be paid, and that promise having been twice renewed the last time previous to Mir. Strauss departure from Constantinb- pie it was understood by the minister as well as by the state department, that pay ment would be forthcoming. Sixteen months have passed since the promise was made and it has not yet been fulfilled, and the question presents itself, what action will this government take to enforce it's grievances? Meanwhile the president has refused to accept the resignation O. &.!is- ter Strauss, and has indefinitely extended his leave of absence.

SECRETARY LONG RETURNS
But Has Not Yet Determined Aliens
 Successor

Washington, April 15.-Secretary Long returned to Washington yesterday from Colorado. He did not come to the navy department, but sent for his mail and spent the afternoon in reading it and in consulting with Assistant Secretary Allen He has accepted the presidents action in selecting his right hand" MT. Allen, for the governorship of Porto Rico but regrets the necessity for a change at this time. So far he has not indicated any choice in the matter of successor to MT. Allen as assistant secretary of the navy. The names mentioned as eligibles includes some that appeared two years ago when MT. Allen was chosen. Perhaps the most prominent is the name of Henry w. Raymond of Germantown, Pa, formerly secretary to Secretary Tracy, and now en- gagged in newspaper publication. There also is talk of ex-Representative Robin son of Pennsylvania, John Thompson of Staten Island. and MT Elliott of Indiana, a graduate of Annapolis. Harvey Fnney, at present private secretary to Secretary Long, is in the list.
 It has been arranged that General Davis shall remain indefinitely in Porto Rico as military commander of the department of Porto Rico, which is to be continued.

kz COMPARISON OF
 MORTALITY RATE In the Spanish and South Afri- can Wars. AMERICANS SUFFERED LESS The Conditions, Both Military and Cli- matie. Under Which Campaigns Were Carried on Make Com
 parisons Difficult
AMERICANS SUFFERED LESS

Washington, April 15-The war depapt- mcnt has prepared an instructive state ment, comparing the mortality figures in the Spanish American war with those of the first six months of the present South African war, the purpose being to show that the casualties suffered by the Amer1- can troops at the time of their occurrence (which regarded in some quarters as excessive and the basis of much critieism) were actually very much less in number approximately than those suffered by the British army up to date. As to the Brit ish showing, the statement covers the re- turns from October Il to April I, nearly six months. There were 309 officers and 3,994 men killed in action, by accident or by wounds and disease. There were set down as missing and prisoners 1S6 officers and 3,72 men, and 2SS officers and 3,934 men were inyalided home, making the total British losses, exclusive of sick and wound e 1 in the hospitals in South Africa, 765 officers and 12600 men. It is estimated that nearly ten thousand officers and men are SICK and wounded in the hospitals, show ing loss in effective strength since the DC ginning of the war of about 230 men. The number of wounded is not stated
 During the war with Spain the American army lost by death 107 officers and 20S0 men. There were wounded 113 officers and 1464 men. Only F per cent of the Ameri- can death rate resulted from wounds or occurred in battle while the correspond ing rate for the British army was 63. 13 per cent.
 The war department statement reads as follows:
 The conditions, both military and eli matic, under which the campaigns were carried on, were so different that it is diff fcult to make any comparisons. The American campaigns were carried on in the tropis in midsummer; the most unfa- Yorable season of the year. The disease most prevalent were tropical levers The climate in the theater of operations in South Africa is remarkably healthy. There was much sickness d Ladysmith, but that was due to siege conditions and not to climatic. In the American campaigns the clothing worn was as light as possible Lord Roberts has sent from Bloemfontein for warmer clothing, on account of the threatened prevalence of pneumonia z

JUDGE BROWNS OPINION
With Reference to Attorney General
 Griggs' Criticism

New York, April 15.-Judge Addison Brown of the United States district court, with reference to Attorney General Griggs criticism of his recent opinion, and which accompanied a draft of a bill, sent to congress Friday for the pur- pose of strengthening out matters in the case of Gaynor Brothers and Benjamin D. Greene, arrested here on an indictment against them obtained in Georgia for al- legged frauds against the government, said yesterday:
 '"Tne law as explained in the recent case of Gaynor and in that of Dana five years ago is in conformity with that which was laid down by Justice Curtis nearly fifty years ago.
 "So far as I know, the government has never failed to secure the removal of ac- cused persons under the law it stands without serious difficulty. In the Gaynor case the government attempted to remove the accused without any competent proof of criminality.
 ''If the people of the country desire that citizens should be removed from their homes to distant parts of the country to stand trial on the mere finding of a distant grand jury, acting in secret and not know ing any circumstances showing probable cause that an offense has been committed a change must be made in the existing law, and the passage of a bill like that is the way to do it.
 '1 should, however, regard so sweeping a change as inexpedient unreasonable and oppressive and in practice unnecessary This bill goes far beyond the provisions of interstate extraditon, which limited to fugitives from justice
 ''The depositions of witnesses taken at preliminary hearing before a magistrate may be used on the trial in case the ac- cuSed is committed nrOyi1Pd the at the time of the trial are not within this state; that the alleged hardships of producing witnesses twice over is much less than fancied."
