RUSSIA MAKES THREATS.
Talks of Breaking on Diplomatic

Powers has conveyed a distinct and un-

This is little short of an ultimatum that
China must sign or take the consequence

were developed yesterday by the arrest

have been issued that no guilty man es-
cape. The number of men implicated in
the frauds is undetermined, and high
rank will not suffice to shield delinquents.
Col. Woodruff, the chief commissary at
Manila, said to the representative of the

were exaggerated, and that the troops
were always well supplied with stores

CUBANS IN SECRET SESSION.
All Reports on Relations TabIed-A
Move to Send Delegation to
WaShiu m

Havana, April IA secret session of
the Cuban Constitutional Convention was
held to-day and attended by twenty-five
delegates. Among the absentees were
Senor Giberga, Senor Quilas and Gen.
Sanguilly, strong supporters of the Platt
amendment.
The first matter considered was a reso-
luton recommending that the convention
accept the Platt amendment with a pro-
viso that the United States government
should make a reduction of so per cent.
on the duty of Cuban products or at least
make preference in their favor over
similar products from other countries.
The resolution was tabled without dis
cussion.
The majority report of the committee
on relations, signed by Senors Gomez, Sill
va and Villuendas, was read, but after a
discussion which showed that a majority
of the delegates were opposed 10 it a reso-
luton to lay it on the table was carried.
A similar disposition was made of reports
from Senors de Quesada, Tamayo, Nunez
and Giberga.
A motion by Senor Monteagudo to ap-
point a commission to go to Washington
was defeated by vote of 13 TO II.
1t was finally decided 10 hold a public
session of the convention tomorrow,
when an attempt will probably be made
to reconsider the action on the Monteagu-
do motion.

SENATOR M'LAURiN'S SCHEME.
ernment's Buffalo Exhibit
Transferred TO Charleston.

Washington. April 1.-There is a possi
bility that the government will be repre-
sented at the Charleston Exposition, not
withstandlng the failure of Congress to
pass the Tillman bill providing for an
appropriation of $25O,OOO. Senator McLau-
rim has hit upon a practical scheme to
have the government exhibit, which Is
now being prepared for the Buffalo EX-
position, also displayed at Charleston.
Senator McLaurin has been at work on
this project for some time past, and to-
day he called at the White House, ac-
companied by Senator Hanna and Sena-
tor Prltchard, of North Carolina, and
presented the case to the President in an
attractive form. The proposition is that,
although no special appropriation for the
Charleston Exposition has been made for
a government exhibit, it may be feasible
Under existing circumstances TO secure
by executive order, or otherwise, author
ity to have the government exhibits now
being prepAred by the Agricultural and
Interior Departments for the Buffalo en-
terprise, transferred to Charleston at the
conclusion of the Buffalo Exposition.
Senator McLaurin urged that the Buff
falo Exposition will have ended before
the Charleston Exposition opens. Instead
of having these exhibits Immediately re-
turned to Washington they may be ship
ped to Charleston and displayed there,
while the latter exposition continues. The
proposition appeared to favorably im-
press the President and Senator McLau-
rims statements were reinforced by Sen
ators Hanna and Pritchard. a
Al the conclusion of the interview the
President expressed a friendly disposition
towards the Charleston enterprise, and
stated that he would take pleasure in hav-
ing the subject thoroughly investigated,
so that if it is possible to find in the law,
rules regulations or practice, anything
to justify or permit transferring the ex-
hibit to Charleston it will cheerfully be
done. The President added that he would
take particular pains 10 bring the matter
to the attention of Secretaries Wilson and
Hitchcock at to-morrow's cabinet meet
ing, and he expressed the hope that the
way may be opened 40 grant Senator Nc
Laurin's appeal.
1t is we'll known that Secretary Wilson
earnestly desired to have an imposing
governmental exhibit at the Charleston
Exposition and he exerted himself in be-
half of the Tillman bill, while the sub
5ect was under consideration in Congress.
II there is any way by which the ex-
pense of the transfer and the care of 1t
while in Charleston can be provided for
under existing law, it is safe to assume
that Secretary Wilson can be relied upon
to lend his valuable aid. Senator Nc
Laurin is conscious of having made the
effort, at any rate, and it was to give
additional force to his request that he
invited Senators Hanna and Pritchard to
accompany him to the White House.

lent Precautions Taken by Ma
rinc Hospital Service

Havana, April 1.-For the first time IN
the history of Havana the month of April
begins without a single case of yellow fe-
yer in the city. Maj. w. C. Gorgas. chief
sanitary officer, is confident that, with the
sanitary measures now being enforced and
the valuable information gained during
the recent investigations of the yellow
fever commission there will be but few
cases during the coming season.
The marine hospital service is also TAX
ing precautions against bringing into Ha-
vana infected persons or baggage from
Mexican or other ports. DR.. Glennon,
chief surgeon, has issued orders for
quarantine against these ports beginning
April 10. 1t is thought that many cases

Vera Cruz which is only two days' sail
from Havana. Hereafter passengers from
vera Cruz will be Obliged to remain in
quarantine for three days Immigrants
are now kept isolated until employment Is
secured for them and then they are ship

OF yellow fevr cases in Havana has de
creased wonderfully since these precau.
tlons were taken.

NEW JERSEYS FEE S22o,ooo.
The United States Steel Corporation
increases Its Capital Stock to
$I.IO0, ,OO0,0 600.

Trenton. N. j., April 1.-The United
States Steel Corporation this afternoon
filed with the Secretary of State articles
amending its charter and increasing it's
capital stock to $l1OO,OOOOOO. The state
fee for the filing of the paper was $220.-
600. The original articles filed some time
ago were only amended in one particu-
lar This amendment was made for the
purpose of taking advantage of an act
passed by the recent Legislature Orig
inally the corporation could not mortgage
or pledge its real property or any of the
stock of any other company, except by
the affirmative vote of the owners of two
thirds of the capital stock. Under the
amended charter it is necessary to have
only the affirmative vote of two-thirds of
the stock represented in person or by
proxy at any meeting of the corporation
The reason for the change is the fear that
the stock will become so scattered that
1t would be impossible to get two-thirds
of the entire stock represented at meet
ing.
