Causes That Led Up to Trouble
at West Point.
WANTED TO RUN ACADEMY
DisEraeed Students Resented Action Of Supes.
IHtendent TO Enforce Law Forbid.
dlsg HaIIng Colonel Mills
Action Upheld.

WASHINGTON, May 22.--The report
Of Colonel Mills, superintendent OF West
Point military academy, upon which
was based the action Of the secretary
OF war dismissing five cadets and sus-
pending six others for the year. says:
"on April is last large lumber OF
cadets become engaged in an insubordi-
nate demonstration directed at the SUI
perintendent Of the military academy.
THE actual cause OF the demonstra-
ton was the resentment Of a group OF
insubOrdlnate cadets OF the second class
at the measures taken by the superin-
tendent to enforce the law forbiddIng
haZing.
The academy cannot afford TO have
any repetition Of hazlnng or other out
breaks"
The ability Of Colonel Mills was high
ly prIised by department officials to-
day and It was made very plain chat
the department means to stand by the
colonel in dealing with the trouble. The
contest at West Point was declared 10
be between two systems, one was the
determination Of the cadets to run the
academy and establish a code Of NOR
ais and conduct OF their own The 9TH
er was the determination Of the au-
thorities to regulate the conduct OF the

OUR TRADE INCREASING.
Interesting Figures Regarding the
Hemp Trade From Yucatan.

NEW YORK, May 22.-Menalio Mar
in. Of Progreso, Yucatan. who is on a
visit TO this country for the purpose
Of placing various contracts for mach
inery gives some interesting figures re-
garding the sisal hemp trade in Yucca
tan.
Mr.. Marin Is manager for a firm at
Progreso. According to figures COM
piled by him the exports OF "Kene-
quen," last year aggregated 4s9,s2s
bales. equivalent TO some $1,000 tons.
or this amount 22.7OO bales were ship
ped to New York. 13S,7I5 TO Boston, 49,
3s5 to New Orleans. $3.50 to Havana.
21O) to Liverpool: $50 TO London; s16
to Hamburg. and 775 to Barcelona
Close on TO 1000 tons Of binder twine
were shipped to various ports Of the
United States in 1900 Some 200 vessels
were employed for transporting the
hemp. comprising 1O2 Norwegian. IS
English. 30 American. IA German and
two Spanish ships. The value Of these
shipments aggregated over s10.O00.0O0.
In the course Of conversation. Mr..
Marin said:
The Compania del CARL Muelle y
Almacenes del Commerce. de Progreso
(the railroad. wharf and warehouse
company Of Progreso) has just opened
their three warehouses, having a capa-
city for 10000 bales. The company Is
about 10 construct narrow giage road
from Merida to Progreso so that freight
can be handled more rapidly than now
under the existing conditions. Merida
Is the center Of the hemp district and
is situated "a miles from Progreso."
Mr.. Marin says he does not fear the
competition Of Manila hemp. He says
that the product in his country can be
cultivated cheaper than in the Philip
pines. Mr.. Marin says also that the
present tendency OF the Yucatans is
to purchase almost everything from
America. France and England used to
be the largest exporters to Yucatan
but now only Wines come from the
former country while Great Britain
ships only a small quantity Of ma
chinery.

CHINESE INDEMNITY PROBLEM
Meeting OF President and Cabinet Held
At San Francisco.

SALT LAKE CITY. May ga spec
ia to the Tribune from San Francisco
says:
An Importu meeting Of the president
and his cabinet was held here today
at which messages from Commissioner
ROckhill were considered and the Chi
ness indemnity problem discussed. The
total demand OF the powers amounts
to E67.0O00 900. OF which the American
demand constitutes s25.OOO.0OO.
Word was sent TO Commissioner
Rockhill 20 do his utmost TO reduce
the demands Of the powers and TO show
the good faith OF this country TO offer
to cut the American indemnity one-half.
The powers are demanding bonds bear
ing six per cent interest. The Unl!etd
States through the president and his
cabinet has instructed Commissioner
Rockhill to accept bonds bearing three
per cent interest with no commission
to agents for negotiating the bonds.
Thers is some question as to the form
OF guaranty for the bonds. Some OF
the powers are demanding customs
security.

FIRST LIEN BONDS DEPOSITED
Collateral Security Of Union Pacific said
to Have Been Deposited by
Hartman Syndicate.

NEW YORK, May 22.-The Tribune
says:
Bankers affiliated with the Hartman
syndicate say that collateral for the
entire s1Oo,OO0,OOO Union Pacific first
lien convertible four per cent gold
bonds OF l0l recently authorized appli-
cation for listing which has been posted
at the stock exchange has already been
deposited by the Union Pacific, but the
exact nature Of this collateral cannot
be learned.
II is understood that the $4,000 900
Of Southern Pacific stock purchased in
February with the proceeds OF $40, ,000.-
600 of the bonds represents part of it,,
and 1t Is assumed that the Northern
Pacific stock recently boy0ht aggregat-
ing at least s7S,OO0,OOO par value, ac-
cording to the statements OF Union Pa
cihc interests, also was deposited as
collateral security. No estimate can be
formed OF the total amount paid by
Kuhn. Loeb & Company for their
Northern Pacific holdings, although 1t
Is believed on good authority that they
secured most Of their preferred stock at
well under par
A provision exists, 1t IS said, by which
a substitution OF collateral may be eff
fected; so that 4 the whole amount
OF Northern Pacific stock bought shall
be turned in as collateral. part Of the
company's property Originally covered
by the mortgage may be withdrawn
from that obligation.
1t is the opinion in the street chat
the $6,OOO,OO0 bonds II sold at par as
were the 10000, 900. which were disposed
Of at the time OF the Southern Pacific
purchase would not meet the cost of
the Northern Pacific shares bought by
Kuhn. Loeb & Company. The sugges-
ton is therefore heard that possibly
some arrangement may have been made
for the sale Of part Of those stock
holders in the St. Paul and the North
western, the safeguarding OF the in
terests OF which was declared to be
partly the object Of Mr.. Hartman and
his associates in buying for control of
the Northern Pacific.
