CHINA CANT COMPLY.
Cabinet officials Opinion of
Demand to Execute II.
DIR. MORRISON OF SAME OPINION.
Both say That the Government, as Vow
Constituted. Is Unable to FuIhu This
Demand--some London Papers Criti-
CHE Our Attitude.

Washington, Nov. lit was stated
by one member of hte cabinet, after
the meeting, that there were no adj
vices in the hands Of this government
tending to confirm the story cabled by
DIR. Morrison to the London Times to
the effect that the ministers had form
ulated demands on the Chinese govern
II high officials, the razing Of the Raku
forts and the prohibition of the future
importation of war material into the
empire. Another member, discussing
this dispatch, said that previous adj
vices to this government indicated
that DR. Morrison's dispatch was a
very fair exposition of the demands
that had been formulated by the minis
tiers. He said, however. that there
was considerable doubt as to the abil-
ity of the Chinese government as now
constituted to enforce the execution of
the IL powerful officials indicated in
the dispatch.
London, Nov. 14.-The London morn.

Cabinet Members Gave Forecasts of Re-
ports-War Tax to BE Reduced.
Washington, Nov. 1.-THE cabinet
meeting was devoted largely to the
discussion between the president and
his advisers of the forthcoming mes
sage to congress. Each of the mem
bers furnished a forecast of his an
nual report, but none of the reports
were in shape for formal presentation.
1t was practically decided that the
recommendation in the message on the
subject of the war revenue taxes will
advocate small reduction, scaling
down the total revenue about $15,000,-
600. Just where the decrease will be
made has not been determined
Considerable attention will be de-
voted to the Nicaraguan canal in the
message, but the presidents recon-
mendations are not yet clearly formu-
lated

COMPLIMENT TO CABINET.
President Asked Them to Remain Tn
ofice-All Responded Favornbly.
Root Not Present

Washington. Nov. 14.-President Nc
Kinley announced clearly and force
fully to the members of his cabinet
his desire that they should all remain
with him during the four years of his
coming administration. His wishes
were made known in an extended
speech ait the cabinet meeting in the
white house Responses We're made
by all of the mo-.bers present. and
while there were no definite pledges
from any of them that they would
accept the portfolios thus rendered
afresh there was on the other hand
no definite declnation.
1t is understood generally that there
is but one doubtful factor in the
homogenity of the present cabinet
That factor is Attorney General
Griggs. as he holds his present posi-
ton at a great financial sacrifice
Still, Mr.. Griggs replied in terms of
warm appreciation to. the compliment
airy remarks of the president, and
voiced no intention of retiring from
his present position.
Secretary Root was the only absent
member from the meeting, having left
for Cuba to look over railway af-
fairs there and, at the same time.
to try to recuperate from his long and
serious Illness. The list of responses.
therefore, was all but complete 1t is
known that Secretary Root is in much
the same position as Attorney General
Griggs, holding his position at eonsid-
cradle sacrifice, but willing at the
same time to sacrifice a good deal
to comply with the expressed wish of
the president.
In the course of his speech he said
that if the result of the recent cleo
ton was an endorsement of his ad-
ministration. ii was no less an endorse
ment of the men who had stood by
him in the time of stress and neces-
sity. The credit for success, he said
lay with the heads of his various de-
partments

1t is understood the District Commission
ers have directed the health officer, Dr.
VIM. c. Woodward. who is charged with
the matter, to proceed this week with the
prosecution of certain persons who have
been reported to them as violating what is
known the smoke law. An act of Con-
gress, which as heretofore explained, pro-
hibits the emission from the chimney or
stack used in connection with any station
airy engine, steam boiler or furnace OF dense
black or gray smoke or cinders. Ii is stated
that about six persons or firms will be pros
ecuted this week. and it is understood that
the parties to be prosecuted are those who
some months ago were warned that they
were violating the law. but were given a
reasonable time in which to so equip their
plants to prevent any violation OF this
law. 1883
After the Court of Appeals last spring
sustained the validity of the smoke law the
Commissioners announced that they would
give all persons who had been or should be
reported to them as vioiators of The law

that which the law declares to be public
nuisance and unlawful In the cases about

still violating the law, and in view of the
time given them to equip their plants the

Plea OF Abatement FILED Attacking
Validity of Indictment. ..
Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
LA PLATA. Md, November 19.-The
November term of the Charles county court
convened at La Plata this morning, with
Judge Merrick the bench. After the
grand jury had been sworn and the dockets
called L. Allison Wilmer. states attorney
for the court. asked that Mr.. w. NJ Lew
ms, states attorney for Prince Georges
county. be assigned to assist in the prose-
cution in the case of the state Of Maryland
against Edward T. Shea, sheriff of Prince
Georges county; w. T. Fox, w. Shea. Her.
bert Boteler and Leo Smith, charged with
committing felonious assault upon Lucy
Hart near Betsville, in Prince Georges
county, in September last. which case had
been removed to Charles county because Of
the affidavits of the accused parties that
they did not believe they could secure a
fair and impartial trial in Prince George s
county. .----
Attorney Wilmer then asked that Monday
next. the 26th instant, be fixed for the day
of trial Judge Merrck said he would not
then set a day.
Representative s. f. Mudd had his ap-
pearance entered as one of the counsel for
the accused.
The prisoners. through their counsel. Mr..
Mudd. F. Beall ]. c. Rogers and {, H.
raises the question to the legality of
the grand jury that found the indictment
against the traversers. The plea sets
forth that the grand jury never consisted
of more than twenty-five jurors, and that
the case of the state against Vincent, where
the party was indicted by a grand Jury
which consisted Of only twenty-five men,
was carried to the Court of Appeals from
Prince Georges county, and that court de-
cided Thursday last that such a body Of
men does not and cannot constitute such a
grand jury can find a valid Indictment.
The court will likely hear argument on
the plea next Wednesday, and 1t Is the
general opinion among lawyers that it will
be sustained and the Indictment quashed,
While counsel for defense express absolute
confidence in the Innocence and final az
quittal of their clients. they resolved to
take advantage Of all legal rights they are
entitled to.
The friends of the accused are much
gra tified because of the successful efforts
in securing Representative Mudd for the
defense. All of them are hopeful Of a ver-
diet of acquittal.
The prisoners are still in the Prince
Georges county Jail, where it is likely
they will remain until after the question
raised in the plea of abatement Is settled
by decision of the court.
