PUBLIC EXAMINER
MAKES DISCOVERY

Another clue that may lead that thu
discovery of batch of frauds in the
Ramsey county auditors Office, perpe-
trated in the winter of 1899, has been
discovered by the state public examiner
A tract of land in the Minnesota Trans
fer district was in process of sale for
$1,000 cash. The property was subject to
a tax-title held by the state on which
was due $1,217.50, and to clear this the
owner had only one lawflG method to
pursue. To pay to the Ramsey county
treasurer the full amount of $1,N7.50
While negotiations for the final transfer
of the property were in progress, there
appeared on the scene a well known tax
adjusteri having pull in the Ramsey
county auditors office and possessed Of
hypnotic powers over the county COM
missioners. He volunteered to adjust
the states claim Of $1,217.5O by cutting it
down to $500 for a compensation of $500
to be paid to him for his lob
AT the request of the tax adjuster the
purchaser signed a written memorandum
offering to the state $500 for it's tax-title
on the property. This offer was filed with
the Ramsey county auditor, who, together
with the county commissioners, promptly
recommended the state auditor to accept
the offer. Relying on the recommended
tions of the Ramsey county auditor and
county commissioners, the state auditor
approved the deal
The taX-tjtle being thus approved, the
next legal step would have been the ex-
ecution of tax-deed by the Ramsey
county auditor to the purchaser. This
was never done. The procedure adopted

lose no opportunity to secure reduction
Of the claim, but it has never signified a
disposition to refuse to accept the full
amount Of our indemnity, regardless Of
the action of the other powers
SITUATION AT PEKIN.
PEKIN, June 6.-The ministers have
ceased to hold meetings while making
inquiries as to the desires of their re-
spective governments. The majority Of
the ministers hold that Germany should
have told the Chinese that all the pow
ers would agree to an indemnity of 49,
100000 taels at 4 per cent interest. They
also think that the withdrawal of Count
Won Waldersee and the German troops
show desire to force the powers to ac-
quiesce to Germany's demand, which
they are not inclined to do. Trouble be-
tween BrtEsh and French soldiers at Tien
Tsin continues. Brig. Gen. Lorne Camp
bell in command Of the British troops,
and the French commander, will use their
utmost endeavors to prevent further fric-
tion.
REPORT FROM WALDERsEE.
BERLIN, June 6.-The war office has
received the following dispatch from
Count Won Waldersee, dated Tien Tsin,
Tuesday, June 4:
"I have now resigned the functions of
commander-in-chief and today am leav-
ing China by way of Taku. Strict meas
ureS have been taken here to avoid COL
hsiOns between the different contingents.
In company with large German de-
tachments [ attended the funeral of the
French soldiers killed in the recent at

UNDER MILITARY Rule
GOVERNMENT OF THE PHILIPPINES
Is To BE OWL In NAME
ONLY
WAR DEPARTMENT SUPREME
CIVIL GOVERNOR AND COMMAND
ING GENERAL BOTH UNDER
SECRETARY OF WAR
PHILIPPINE TRADE FIGURES

WASHINGTON. June 6.-The new civil
government to be established in the Phil
lpplnes is receiving the consideration of
the president and the secretary of war
1t will differ very little from what was
hrSt intended, as there will be a governor
for the archipelago and a.legislative coun-
Gil and other officers. This government
will have control of all the civil affairs.
but will be under the war power to the
extent of being directed by the secretary
of war. There will be z. nice distinction
as to the authority of the general COM
mandng the troops in the Philippines and
the governor to be appointed under the
civil government. No Official declaration
has been made as to which will be the
supreme authority, but it is known that
the secretary Of war will be supreme
While it is not the intention to conduct
the government of the Philippines under
the Spooner law that law will be taken
as sanctioning what iszto be done The
new government will be similar to that
which existed for a short time In the
early days of New Mexico. There was a
civil governor appointed by the president
and a commanding general of the army.
Both had their functions in preserving
the peace and controlling the affairs Of
the territory.
PHILIPPINE TRADE.
Philippine islands for the first three quar-
ters showed an increase of $65S, ,321, OF 72
per cent over the amount for the same
period Of 1899, according to statement
made public by the division of insular
affairs of the war department today.
During the period stated of 1900, merchan-
disc to, the value Of $1,571,972 came into
the Philippines from the United States,
while in 1899 the figures were 1913 651.
The total value of merchandise imported
from all countries from January to Oc-
tober of 1900 was $17,1S7,991, as against
SD, ,163,242 during the same period Of the
preceding year. This shows an increase
Of ,729, or 21 per cent. European and
Asiatic countries combined sent over
$15, 100000 worth of the total importation
in 1900. An interesting fact is noted in
the shape Of an import trade worth So, ,D03
from Africa in 1900 as against an entire
absence Of this trade the preceding year.
The above figures relative to the imports
from the United States represent direct
shipments only and do not include mer-
chandise from the United States invoiced
to Hongkong and. thence re-shipped to
Manila. The comparative figures as to
exports to the rest of fhas world show
an increase double that noted in the i'm
port trade The merchandise exported
from the Philippines to ot3ier countries in
1900 was valued at $7,SS5.2e0. for 1899 1t
was valued at $11, ,993 oil, thus showing an
increase of IS, 800 1S9, or 49 per cent. The
exports to the United States, however,
compared with the same period of 1899,

POWERS AGREE ASTO
CHINESE INDEMNITY
Payment Of Bonds to Be Guaranteed
by Each Government AS to
Its Own Share.

WASHINGTON, June 6-The ambassa-
dors from most Of the European coun-
tres were in conference with Secretary
Hay today, mainly because it was diplo-
matte day, which afforded an opportunity
for discussing the state Of the Chinese
negotiations. 1t is understood that the
middle ground, or modus vivendi, as 1t is
being referred to, concerning the form
of paying the indemnity, is likely to be
settled by a joint and several guaranty.
This will be in complete accord with the
American view that there should be no
joint guaranty in the sense of binding
each government to secure the payment
of the entire 1881, 900, 600. It will be joint,
however, in the formal aspect of being
executed by all of the powers jointly,
at the same time and probably by the
same instrument. This instrument doubt
less will include a provision by which
each government is to assume no liability
beyond the amount of it's own share of
the indemnity, which in the case of the
United States is limited to $25, COO, ,00e.
In answer to his inquiry, Special Com
missioner Rockhiu at Pekin has been
Informed that the United States govern
ment has not taken any steps recently
looking toward the abatement Of it's
claims for indemnity against China, by
one-half, regardless Of the action Of the
other powers. Some time ago the govern
ment proposed through Mr.. Rockhill that
all of the powers scale down their
claims 50 per cent so as to bring the to-
tai Of their indemnities within China 9
ability to pay Though this proposition
failed of acceptance, our government
left Mr.. Rockhill under instructions to

to thus cheat the county out of S7OO23
was abandoned, and an entirely new un-
lawful and braZen method was chosen
to cut the tax down to $500.
The county auditor issued what Is call
ed a Delinquent Property Tax State
ment," purporting to show that there
were delinquent taxes on the property
amounting to S50005 directing the Ramsey
county treasurer to receive $5O0.05 and re-
ceipt for it in full payment, concealing
the fact that the state was entitled to
$1,217.50 The purchaser paid only S50003
and received a receipt IN full payment
from the county treasurer
When the business was fully completed
a certificate was delivered to the owner
of the property, executed by the county
auditor, showing that the taxes upon the
property had been lawfully reduced and
abated, from the legal amount Of 81, ,217.50
to $500 .03. The state public examiner re-
ports the county auditors certificate to
be false, and should have been known to
him to be false, when he signed it.
A summary Of the transaction may thus
be made:
The county treasurer was ent tied
to .......... ........... .......... 81, ,217. so

The county lost Observation-Disclosures. 77 %
After the state was thus cheated out of
s717.23, a deed of the property from the
owner to the purchaser for the cons!dera-
ton of $1,000 cash, was delivered. The
state bank examiner is said to have
made his report of this transaction and
turned it over to the county attorney to
be presented to the grand jury.

THAT ARMY BILL.
The annual grafton on medicine by DR..
N. s. Davis, Jr., of Chicago. which was
read at the close of the sessk) was an
exhaustive review of the advance Of med
iclne during the past century.
Before the section of suomatoIogy yes-
terday afternoon a most interesting and
valuable paper was submitted by John
5. Marshall, president of the examining
board Of dental surgeons for the United
States army. The title of the paper was,
Military Dental Practice IT'S Modihca-
tions and Limitations" It follows in
part:
THE passage of the army reorganiza-
ton bill, with its section creating a
corps Of dental surgeons for the United
states army, makes an epoch In the his
tory OF modern dental surgery which has
never had its counterpart before in the
history of the world, the influence OF
which is destined to be far reaching in
Its benefcent results and OF great i'm
portance In the elevation of our educa-
tional and professional standards
when we take into consideration the
fact that modern dentistry covers In it's
growth and development a period less
than the lifetime of many individuals we
have good reason to be proud of its
achievements Sixty years ago there was
no such thing in existence as a dental
college; dental journal had not been
thought of, or a scientific society organ
lied. The practice of dentistry at this
time was, with few exceptions in the
hands of BARRIERS and blacksmiths
I'VE have special reason for congrat-
ulation also in the fact that the congress
OF these United States was the first iegIs-
lative body in the world to formally rec
ogniZe the value and need of the BEN
efcent services Of our speciality as a de-
partment of military medical practice
that we have been given an opportunity
to prove the wisdom of It's action to our
country and the world.
The whole question, however, Of plac-
ing dental surgeons in the army was
looked upon by many of our national leg
tslators in somewhat Of the light Of an
experiment and in a certain measure
this was true of the war department and
OF the surgeon general. For this reason,
