THE PRESIDENT REFUSES TO SHOW CLEMENCY
IN THE FAMOUS CONTEMPLATING CASE.
Washington. June 2s.-The President has refused
TO pardon ex-District Attorney EIery p. Ingham
and ex-Assistant District Attorney Harvey K
hewitt, OF Pennsylvania. who were convicted and
sentenced TO two and a half years imprisonment
for connection with the famous Jacobs counter
feiting case in Pennsylvania several years ago.
They already have served two years OF their SEN
fences. When the papers were sent to the Presi-
dent they accompanied, at his request, by a
from the Attorney General. in the course
of which he says
II will be observed that aside from the qualified
reasseron OF their plea Of not guilty the petition

Certainly it is true that the acts OF Congress do
not provide for the disbarment OF an attorney who

its own system OF rewards and punshments.
The petitioners disbarment, therefore, was no
act Of the Pennsylvania courts to purge its bar OF
those who had brought discredit and shame upon
This is a matter solely for the courts which re-
jected them.
All the consequences of crime are disagreeabie
and distressing. These petitioners were lawyers.
They well knew the high ideals OF their profession
and that no self-respecting court in law-respect
ing community would tolerate upon it's roll and
thereby hold out TO the world as worthy of conf

the high traditions Of their profession and entered

The suggestion that the high-minded judge who
imposed the merciful sentence in this case could
not have considered the possibility OF their disbar-

no reason why the petition should be granted and
I therefore recommend that ii be denied.

Washington, June 28.-Brigadier- General Hey
wood. commandant of the marine corps, has
made a formal protest to the Navy Department
against the injustice to his command in the
sweeping order of Commander Schroeder pub
Hshed in The Tribune this morning, and has
thus brought the matter to point where the
Governor of Guam will be compelled to offer
a satisfactory explanation of his conduct
Acting Secretary Hackett to-day declined TO
discuss the case beyond declaring with emphasis
that the usual course would be followed which
in view of the extraordinary admissions in the
order that the Governor could longer COM
mand respect or maintain discipline, is taken to
mean Commander Schroeders speedy relief and
transfer to other duty.
The naval authorities are perplexed over Com
mander Schroeder's unaCcotntable neglect to
report FUZZY the occurrences at Guam in the
last few months. and fear that his health has
been affected by the climate.

Washington. June 28.-The board on construction.
which for the last two months has had plain SAIL
ing the subject Of the comprehensive battIeship
designs demanded by Congress, has last struck
a serious through a revival of the old
versy over superposed turrets. which had been ap-
parently settled year ago. Admirals Melville
ONei and BOwles have decided that while de-
tracing in nowise from the double turret principle
a return to the inclined front elliptica balanced
turret is advisable temporarily until the double
turret ships in commission have thor

In other words. they think it discreet not to equip

Admiral Bradford and Captain Sigsbee. who claim

as retrograde conservatism. They Will make
strong minority report, and Will probably appeal 10

concentration of fire from four guns. But for this
hitch IT is understood. the board would have been
in thorough harmony TO all essential features of
the designs.

PAYING MORE THAN IS ASKED.
CURIOUS DISCREPANCY DEVELOPS OVER
THE CHINESE INDEMNITY.

CURIOUS DISCREPANCY DEVELOPS OVER
THE CHINESE INDEMNITY.
Washington, June 2S.-A curious discrepancy
concerning the amount Of the Chinese tndemni-
ties has developed, by which IL appears that
China has agreed 10 pay about 35o0O,OoO taels,
or S24 500 900. more than the united demands OF
all the mowers. Just how this occurred is not
clear TO officials but It appears to have been an
error Of calculation at Picking. IN the first place
tv those making UP the indemnities. and later
by the Chinese in their hasty acceptance Of the
total AS finally made up, this total was
45OOOoOOO taels, but the present calculation
after taking in all Of the demands that are
known makes the total only 415OoOOoO taels.
IN the mean time. China has agreed to pay the
larger amount so that the question now arises,
What VIII become OF the excess OF 35IooO,ooO
saels?
The Chinese Minister, who at the State
DEPARTMENT to-day, said he was not aware that
The total indemnity was less by 35.oO0OoO taels
than the amount China had agreed 20 pay. and
for the present he was not prepared TO say
whether China would ask TO be allowed 10 re-
tain this amount. It is believed that the United
States would decline TO take any part OF the
excess. and that II would favor all the Powers
RENTING this amount TO China.
Another question which has arisen is as 10 the
amount Of bonds which shall be issued TO Japan,
as that country has drawn attention 10 the fact
that its share OF indemnity cannot be negotiated
favorable terms as some or the other
powers can make. It is understood that the
matter has been considered OF sufficient impor-
tance TO bring 10 the attention Of the President,
with a view TO learning the general attitude or
this government on the matter.
