BUYING HORSES.
Charge of Corruption Among British
Officers in the Matter

LON. IN, June After a long and
somewhat bitter discussion of the pol
icy of the War Office in buying horses
for use in South Africa the House of
Commons tonight, by a vote of 1853 to
co. voted the sum of e15,779,0O0 for
transports and remounts.
Sir Blundel Maple, Conservative, as
serted that British officers who had
been sent to Hungary and Austria had
purchased broken-down animals at ex-
travagant prices and divided with the
sellers the price charged the British
Government above the actual cost. He
demanded the appointment of a COM
mittee of inquiry.
Lord Stanley, Financial Secretary of
the War Office. said an inquiry would
be made into the matter and he be-
lieved the accusations of corruption
brought against British officers would
be disproved.
Brodrick, the War Secretary, said the
G42, in Canada go and in Australia
the United States and Hungary $40 to
90. Later in the discussion Brodrick
said a telegram had just reached him
from Lord Kitchener announcing that
between $4,000 and 10000 troops were
now suitably mounted. The War Sec
rotary defended the good quality of the
horses bought abroad.
LONDON, June 1T is understood
that the charges made by Sir Blundel
Maple are of a serious nature. 1t is
said that in one case an officer netted
100000 in the purchase of horses in
Hungary. Dissatisfaction is said to
have existed i'm the colonies because
the Government has been buying horses
on the Continent when colonial ami
mails are available.

INTERESTING DECISION.

HILO, June 1.-THE case of H. Hack
reid IL Company, Ltd, VS.. Grossman
Brothers was heard by Judge Little
sitting in chancery on Thursday and
FRIDAY of last week. Decision was
rendered by the court on Monday in ia
Vor of defendants.
Ihis was suit to foreclose a mort
gage given by Grossman Brothers to
plalntiH. The right to foreclOse was
claimed on the ground that the con-
tract which had been entered into at
the time mortgage was given, and upon
which mortgage was based, had been
broken. According to this contract
plaintiff was to advance Grossman
Brothers certain amount of money in
such sums as defendants should re-
quire from time to time, the total with
interest not to become due until Nav
1907, provided the terms of the contract
were maintained by the defendants.
otherwise all money advanced was to
be due and payable at once upon breach
of the terms by the defendant, and the
mortgage given to secure such adj
Vances might be foreclosed Among
the terms of the contract was the one
that Grossman Brothers should culti-
Vate the coffee on their plantation
which the mortgage covered, to the sat
isfaction of the mortgage. The case
turned upon the Interpretation and APP
pllcation of the word satisfaction"
Plaintiff claimed that the method en-
ployed by the defendants was not to
their satisfaction. Defendant claimed
and brought forward expert testimony
Irove that the method they employ
ed was the best method and therefore
should be satisfactory.
The decision for defendant was based
on the unreality of the dissatisfaction.
Plaintiff has given notice of an appeal
and the matter will come on at the July
sitting of the Supreme Court In Homo

EXCLUDES SECRET SOCIETIES.
United Presbyterian Assembly Votes
to Bar Lodge Members.

~ 0oi .odSS NOiIlCISs
Des Moines, May 29.-By a vote of
80 to SO the general assembly of the
United Presbyterian church at 2:30 p.
m. adopted the report of the judiciary
committee upon the change of creed
with regard to article XIV. This ac-
ton is interpreted to mean that it for
bids the admission of members of Sc
cret societies to the church, and ac-
cording to some of the delegates ex-
pels those belonging to the church
who are now members of secret or.
ders.
Some members OF the assembly
who are most violently opposed to Sc.
cret orders, objected to the section of
the report of the committee which re
moved the ban of the church from or.
ganizations which "do not inculcate a
Christless religion"
r. e. Campbell. who moved to strike
out the section of the report which said
the testimony does not include such
orders. held that labor unions should
not be approved by the church This
idea was strongly opposed.

Havana, May 29.-The Platt amend
ment was accepted by the Cuban CON

vote of Is to IA. The actual vote was
on accepting the majority report of the
committee on relations, which embod-
led the amendment, with explanations
of certain clauses. The radicals made
hard fight at the last moment and
Portuondo, Gomez and Tamayo bitter
ly arraigned the conservatives. Senor
Tamayo was particularly vindictive
and declared that everybody who voted
in favor of the Platt amendment was
traitor to his country. The conyen-
tion compelled him to retract this
statement. On several occasions per-
sonal encounters seemed imminent.
Gomez spoke for more than an hour

pealed to the patriotism of delegates

Several conservatives arose and re.
quested Gomez to retract, but he re.

Minton. after having been in session

tion OF the Decisions.
Washington, May 2S.-Solicitor Gen
eral Richards of the department of
justice, who had charge of the insular
cases before the supreme court, made
the following statement containing
his Interpretation of the decisions of
the court:
"The important question involved in
these cases was whether the cession
of territory contained in the treaty of
Paris made Porto Rico and the Philip
pines integral part of the United
States within the meaning of that pro-
vision of the constitution requiring
all duties, imposts and eXcises to be
uniform throughout the United States
The court held that the cesson simply
made Porto Rico and the Philippines
domestic territory of the United States.
subject to the full control of congress,
which control could be exercised with
out reference to those limitations.
This limitation, the court held was
intended to apply to the states of the
union and does not apply to acquired
territory unless by treaty and by sub
SequeuI dcC Ol congress II is lnCOTpO-
rated within and becomes an integral
part of the United States. The de-
cisions are consequently a victory for
the government. They sustain to the
fullest extent the so-called insular
policy of the administration The gov
ernment now has the sanction of the
supreme court for governing these
islands as their peadc ronuira Tho
court holds that the constitution did
not of it's own force at once apply to
those ceded territories"

TWENTY-ONE DEAD.
TERRIFIC EXPLOSION OF COAL
DUST IN TENNESSEE MINE.

Flames Ignite Accumulation of Dust
and Unfortunates Are Caught In
Fiery Furnace-onIy Four Escape
Without injuries.
Dayton, Tenn, May 2S.-At the
Richland mine two miles from here,
yesterday, terrific explosion of coal
dust resulted in the death of 81 men,
all white, and most of them married
and with families.
At 4:30 p. m. a dynamite cartridge
was placed in position in one of the
rooms for blast and the miners started
for the mouth of the mine. The blast
did not explode as intended, but in
stead long flame shot out of the blast
hole and ignited the accumulation of
dust. Instantly terrific explosion oc.
Cured and seething mass of fame
shot to the mouth of the mine and
extended 300 feet into the open air,
scorching the leaves from the nearby
trees.
There were 81 men in the mine at
the time. Four of these escaped with
slight injuries. Twenty-one were
killed and nine terribly bunred, most
of them fatally. The force of the ex-
plosion caused great masses of coal
and slate to cave in from the roof of
the mine and many of the Inflated
miners were completely buried.
Word quickly reached Dayton and
rescue forces were at once organized
and proceeded to the mine. One by
one the blackened and horribly dis.
figured bodies were taken from the de.
bris and carried to the mouth of the
mine, where they were put on loco
motive and taken to Dayton. Scores
of relatives and friends gathered al
the mouth of the mine and the shrieks
of anguish as the bodies were remoevd
were heartrending.

At Sidney, Neb., the president and

OPPOSE RAISING CUSTOMS.
United States Will Stand Out Against

Revenue Proposal.
Pehing, May 2S.-It seems probable
that Great Britain's position limiting
the indemnity to be demanded from
China to 45O,O0O,OO0 taels will be
agreed to by the end of the week.
United States Special Commissioner
Rockhill thinks this may be considered
an American victory. Though his
proposition limiting indemnity to
310,000,000 taels was not accepted,
still it was the cause of the other
powers considering the idea. The
only point likely to cause further delay
in decision by all the powers except
! America is that regarding the raising
| o. G.e ,4s.eign customs per cent
Mr.. Rockhill told the ministers at a
recent meeting that rather than take
this step America would relinquish all
claims to indemnity and even make
money present to China, as American
commercial interests would suffer far
more thereby than those of any other
power, with possibly one exception.
