COMMISSARY FRAUD.
Macarthur Said They Were BEING
Investigated and Not Sufficiently
Grave to Cause Concern.

Washington, April 4.--The follow.
ing cablegram was received Wednes.
day at the war department from Gen.
eral Macarthur at Manila:
"Brigadier General Robert p.
Hughes reports the surrender at Ban
ga, Northwest Panay, March 81, 30
officers, 1856 men, los rifles. General
kobbe reports 21 men and 21 guns
surrendered March 81, Northern Min.
danao.
"Commissary frauds being investi-
gated; not sufficient gravity to cause
cern; apparently due irregularity
sales savings. Press reports inexact
and misleading. Macarthur"
General MacArthurs dispatch, as
well as other information received
concerning the frauds, leave consid-
cradle doubt as to the exact charac-
ter of these alleged peculations. Gen.
eral Macarthur speaks of sales"
These sales consist of savings by sol
diers on the regular rations issued,
which they are allowed to dispose Of
for their own benefit. Generally the
savings are made q company matter,
and are disposed of in bulk to the
highest bidder. They may be re-
turned to the commissary department
and bought in by the government at
cost price, but there Is no reason why
they should not be sold elsewhere IL
the managers of the company fund
should SO desire. AS army rations do
not pay the usual duty imposed on
similar goods used for private con-
sumption, the soldiers could make
quite a prifit on their savings IL they
were of considerable amount. Sales
from commissary stores, not includ,
ed in the regular ration, are made to
officers and men, but only upon a GER
tif1cate or declaration that they are
for the personal use of the purchaser.
1t Is said that no amount Of such sales
could be used by any person or per-
sons without detection. Officers Oh
men purchasing such stores and re-
selling them would be guilty of yio-
lating the army regulations and would
be subject to court martial. AS to
the other savings they are upon the
regular rations issued to each com
pany. They might be in flour. meat.
sugar or any number Of staple articles
included in the ration. The money
procured for the sale of such savings
Is usually devoted to the purchase of
such supplies as are not included in
the ration and many delicacies anil
varieties of food are thus secured by
the men in garrison or camp.

CHINA HAS
DECLINED
Rejected Manchurian
Treaty With Russia
CAR IS NOTIFIED
The Chinese Govern ment Could
Not Afford to Alternate Their
Sympathies For One
>s' Friendly Nation.

Pekin, April 4.-The Chinese gov
ernnent formally notified Russia that
China, owing tu-~the attitude of the
powers, is not able to sign the Man.
churian convention. a,S
"It is China's DESIRE" says the for
NAL notification, to keep on friendly
terms with all nations. At present
she is going through a period which Is
the most perilous in the empires his
tory and 1t is necessary that she should
have the friendship of all.
However much she might be will
ing to grant any special privilege to
one power, when others object, 1t Is
impossible that, for the sake of max
ing one nation friendly she should
ALLEVIATE the sympathies Of all others.
Ii Hung Chang says this letter set
ties the matter definitely and that
Russia was informally notified to the
same effect March 29.
Prince Ching asserted that every
Chinaman except LII Hung Chang was
against signing the convention.
Pekin, April 4.-As soon as the gen
erals of the powers notify the minis
ters as to what disposition Is desired
of articles 8 and Of the protocol
everything will be practically con
cluded except the indemnities, tbs

mans say they can be ready in two

they can be ready at moments

can be filed until May IA.

favor Of making general claim as

in, making allowances for few thou

CAN TON
MARKETS
Local Rates Not Affe cted
by Speculation.
The CHICAGO BEARS
Force Down Prices on Wheat
Egg Market IL Reported
Firm and Prices Will
Not Go Lower.

There was great deal Of excitement
and speculation in the grain pits at
Chicago Wednesday. Speculator Phil.
lips bad got corner on grain, and the
bears went after him in such a way
that, he was compelled to unload at
considerable loss, 1t is said The bears
continue to force the price of wheat
and other grains down, but while Phil.
lips got rid of lot of his wheat hold
ings he held on to his corn and oats,
The reduction was purely speculative
and had no effect upon the actual trans
actions in wheat. The general ten
dency, however, of grain, Is toward
slightly lower prices, owing to the large
visible supply and the general good con-
dition of growing wheat.
In Canton the grain markets remain
unchanged. Dealers still continue to
pay rs cents bushel for wheat, and
oats and corn are bringing the same
prices that have ruled all winter.
1t is thought by some dealers that
the bottom has been reached in egg
prices. In the larger cities there has
been a slight advance within the last
day or two. The demand Is large and
consumes about all that Is offered.

Ponce, Porto Rico March 23.-An-

emigrants sailed for New Orleans on
the steamer Californian, Captain
Dyer, from Guanica, yesterday. There
were S99 in the party.
The expedition was composed CT tn ,

The number OF persons to family

gone to Hawaii over 65 Fer cent have

Before the first boat load Of emf

about 1000 people congregated on
the beach and two priests celebrated
mass in the open air. Two weddings
and two christenings were also per-
formed.
While on their way to New Orleans
