War Taxes.

Representative Grosyenor of Oh'' reacheo
Washington this morning for the session
and has taken quarters at the Dewey Ho-
tel. General Grosxenor called upon Speaker
Henderson duringtthe forenoon and met
number of his colleagues who had dropped
in to pay their respects to Mr.. HENDERSON.
In conversation with a Star reporter VINO
saw him at the Normandie. General Gros-
venor gave his views upon some OF the SUBJ
jects which are occupying the attention OF
memers Of the House at this time
Il fail to see that we are under obiiga-
tions to shower benefits upon the Cubans at
the expense of our own people, he said IN
response to a request for his opinion upon
proposed Cuban reciprocity. AFTER Cuba
has organized a government Wnlcn Is ma
tional In scope and responsible am Wiling
to do whatever may be wise in the way OF
helping the Cubans, IL In SO doing no Amer
lean industry now protected by our Iann
policy Is harmed. l am ana WIN De Ia the
future a supporter Of the national policy
Of the administration. But speaking for
the present, and independently, l see no
reason to hasten to aid Cuba's commerce
We have certainly done great deal Tor
the Cubans and do not see that we owe
them anything. We released them from
their oppressor and they have shown them
selves to be absolutely ungratefui Iney
have manifested no spirit OF appreciation.
1t would seem that the old spanish hostatt-
ty to us still prevails.
81 certainly am not in favor OF doing
anything In the line requested by the Gu
bans IL 1t will hurt the American beet SUI
gar industry. Last year We produced one
third of the beet sugar that enters into our
consumption OF sugars of all kinds. and
there is every reason to believe that IL the
industry is still further protected we viii
eventually raise all the beet sugar sold in
the United States"
what do you think OF war tax reduc-
tion?" he was asked
We'll, as you know. 1 was in favor last
session, in committee, OF wiping out the
whole one hundred millions of the tax. If
We had done SO the question would not be
up at this time to bother u.s.
You are still in favor of such action?"
Yes, unless something has arisen of
which am not apprised that would rem
der the legislation iradyisable'
You refer to possible heavy expenses OF
the government ,"
Eyes, expenses-or appropriations. The
construction of Nicaragua canal for in
stance could hardly be called an expense of
conducting the government, in the usual
sense of the word
do you think, then, that this Congress
will authorize the commencement of the
canal?'

PREFERS THE SHIPS CANTEEN.
Surgeon Ames Recommends That the
BumbOat Be Prohibited.

The "bumboat' of romance and Piuafore
is the subject Of attack by Surgeon How
ard E. Ames, attached to the battle ship
Massachusetts That officer has made a
report to the surgeon general of the navy
in regard to the naval ration, in which he
says:
THE ration of the navy, such as 1t is, is
of the best in quantity and quality and is
superior to that of any navy in the world.
1t Is badly prepared in many cases and its
value and attractiyeness destroyed through
lack of knowledge greatly to the dietary.
One of the chief difficulties in this question
has often been dwelt upon, notwithstand-
ing little or nothing has been done to i'm
prove it. 1 believe the ships cook should
be fully and carefully taught in some of
the numerous cooking schools that now eX-
list throughout our country. We have such
schools where the full value of the food
is taught, how to prepare it to secure its
full! dynamic value. not only in variety
of ways, but in an attractive and palatable
manner. Variety can be secured by the
stoppage of a certain number of rations.
This ration money If judiciouSly used
would add greatly to the dietary. One of
the chief difficulties in, the way of accom-
plishing this is the low pay of the ships
cook l feel that his pay should be double
what it now is.
IF. however. the present standard of
cooks is to be maintained, the present pay
is sufficient Another source from which
the condition of the messes can be i'm
proved Is in the profits derived from a
properly conducted ships canteen. If this
canteen should be established through de-
partmental orders I firmly believe that the
greatest good would follow.
1T is time that the bumboat was pro-
hibited. 1t has always been a nuisance to
the ships and an annoyance to the execu-
tive officers. My experience and observa-
ton on the properly managed ships can
teen impressed me with its value; the
profits are large, the articles furnished bet
ter, cheaper and greater in variety than
any bumboat can ever furnish. AS it is
an affair in which every member OF the
crew is an interested party, and as all its
profit goes to their improvement, / think it
should be established and protected by
the Navy Department. Anything that will
add to the contentment Of the crew is
worth encouragement. This feel is one of
them"

CAME FROM TURKISH SOURCES.
The RumOr of the Death of Miss Stone
and Her Communion,

Ihe HumOr OF the Death of Miss Stone
and Her Companion.
The rumor of the death Of Miss Stone
and her attendant, Madame Tsilka, which
reached the State Department yesterday.
came from Turkish sources. the first in
formant being the Vail of Salonica The
two women. 1t Is said, were held captives
at Vvesnej and Myejrjoza, two towns Sup
posed to be on the Bulgarian frontier but
which have not SO far been located in the
aliases The fact that both Mr.. Eddy and
Consul General Dickinson emphatically dis
credit the report of Miss Stones death is
regarded here as indicating their purpose
to continue without relaxation their efforts
to secure her release.
1t Is said that the negotiations for the
release of Miss Stone are hampered by the
refusal of the brigands to accept less than
their original demand of $4,000 for her
release. So far the fund collected for her
benefit amounts to only SOS ZOO, and that
Is all Consul General Dickinson has been
authorized to pay for her release The
attitude of the brigands in holding out. for
the additional $4,000 Is said to be the
cause of the consul generals return 10
Constantfnopie. An effort will probahiv
be made to secure more money, either nv
voluntary contributions or possibly through
congressional appropriation.

gate Thomas j. Moncure of King George
and Stafford has presented new suffrage
plan to the conventiof=-the latest and
briefest of the session. ashe plan in full is

value of at least 800 or a Virginia regis
tered state bond of at least 500.

the provisions of this article"
An amendment was adopted striking out
tlA
at Richmond. The proposition to empower
the directors to expend the revenues for i'm
proving and enlarging the penitentiary has
precipitated bitter fight.
The contention is that the matter has no
place in the constitution, but is one for the
general assembly. Mr.. Portlock of Nor
folk is fayoring the report while Mr. HIM
ton OF Fauquier wants the section eIimi-

Employees other Than Carriers to Be
Classified.

The President has signed an order CLASH
flying the rural free delivery service The
order becomes Immediately effective, so far
the clerks. special agents and route in
spectors of that service are concerned, but
provides that until regulations are formu-
lated for the appointment of carriers, such
employees shall moi, be treated as within the
classified service. Vacancies other than
those Of carriers will be filled by appoint
ments from eligible registers of the COM
mission. .sy... s.
For the position Of rural carrier no scho-
lastic examination will be held, but the ap-
pointments will be made from persons liv-
ing in and familiar with the neighborhood
to be served. They must, of course, be
able to read and write, and it will be neces-
sary for them to furnish their own horses
and conyeyances. 1t is me intention to al
low the people living in the neighborhood to
be served to nominate three or more per-
sons and selection is to be made upon the
showing made as the result Of registration
tests. Appointments will be made wholly
for fitness and irrespective of political or
personal considerations.

Action on Charge Against Thos, H

~ III
PfckfOrd in Montgomery County,
Special Dispatch to The Evening Star
ROCKVILLE, Md, November 2s.-State's
Attorney H. Maurice Talbot yesterday. in
the circuit court for Montgomery county.
entered a nolle prosequi in: the case of
Thomas H. Pickford of Washington, d. c.,
under indictment for malicious burning, the
property destroyed being an untenanted
dwelling house at Four Corners, this coun-
ty The decisive action of the prosecuting
ohlc1al was taken only after the court
Judges Henderson and Motter being on
the bench, had declined to grant con-
tinuance in the case
In considering the notion submitted by
the states attorney, that the trial be con-
tinued, Judge Motter. speaking for the
court, remarked that it is usual for persons
accused of crime to endeavor to evade
trial. But Mr.. Pickford, who could not
be compelled to answer at the bar Of the
Rockville court for the crime for which
he had been indicted. voluntarily came for
ward and asked for trial-for that purpose
he was present in court with his wit
nesses.
IAN Indictment, even of an innocent per-
son, is a serious thing to keep hanging
over his head, and this one ought not to
stand on the showing made commented
the court
say whether or not, if the trial should be
postponed for few days, he could produce
any evidence on which he would be willing
II ask conviction. Mr.. Talbot replied
that he was by no means certain that he
could. and the court thereupon denied the
motion for continuance. The entering of
the nole prosequi followed.
1t will be recalled that last March the
grand jury for Montgomery county reported
an indictment for malicious burning against
Thomas H. Pickford, John H. Walter, Aa-
ron Bradshaw and Granville c. Shaw, all of
Washington. The building DESTROYED by fire
was the property of Messrs Pickford and
Walter AS soon as he heard of the action
of the grand jury Mr.. Pickford came here,
acknowledged service and gave bond for his
appearance at the present term of the court
to answer to the charge. The local authori-
ties took the necessary steps to induce the
governor of Maryland to issue a reuuisition
directed to the chief justice of the Supreme
Court of the District of Columbia request
ing that Messrs. Walter, Bradshaw and
shaw De surrendered to an agent of the
state The three men were arrested upon
receipt of the requisition in Washington,
blu. were promptly discharged from custody
after hearing before one Of the justices
OF the District Supreme Court.
