AFFECTS GOVERNMENT WORK.
War and Navy Departments Appre-
hensiNc as to the Eject of the
Macbinists' strike

Washington, May 22.-Both the navy
and war departments are apprehen-
siye as TO the effects of the machin-
lists strike on government work now
in progress. The navy department re.
ceived word, yesterday, that the
strike had spread to large private
yards on the Pacific coast where a
number of war ships are under con.
struction and it is expected that
eastern yards having naval ships to
build also will be affected.
1he war department was informed
that ,he strike was likely to stop
work on the two naval transports Egg
bert and Rosecrans, now repairing on
the Pacific coast. Secretary Root
asked the navy department to assist
in forwarding the work pending the
tie-up, and Acting Secretary Hackett
of the navy ordered that the two
transports be taken to the navy yard
at Bremmertcn. on Puget sound, for
the completion of their repairs.

CHARGED WITH FORGERY.
one-Time ship Captain and Life
Saver Under Ugly
Charges.

New York, May 22.-Wm. II. Thomp.
son, who was at one time captain OF
an ocean liner, and who is now a
member of the Flower-Thompson Co..
a medicine concern, was arrested YES.
terday, charged with forgery. The
complainant was Elizabeth II. Reed
of the Bronx, who claims that over
year ago she purchased one $1,000
gold debenture bond of the Flower
Thompson Co, from r. o. Flower, on
which was signed the name of John
S. Nugent, as treasurer of the Flow
er-Thompson Co.
1t is alleged in the complaint that
Thompson, at one time received a
check from John S. Nugent, and
that he took this check to a
h-hograph firm and had the name
of Nugent placed in the companys
bond as treasurer. This is the alleged
forgery complained of. Thompson
was held in $1,000 bond.
In 1872 Thompson received a gold
watch from President Grant for his
services in saving two lives on board
a steamship.

BEHAVED LIKE A WINNER.
The Cup Defender, on Her BuiIder.'
Trini, in Every Respect
Equals Expectations.

Bristol, II. l., May 22.-Up and down
NarraganFett bay, yesterday, the cup
defender Constitution was put on her
hrst PAGES, and acquitted herself, as
Mr.. Duncan. her manager, said, most
satisfactorily.
Starting out yesterday forenoon in
a dylng-out westerly breeze, she
showed herself an excellent drifter.
while in the afternoon a fine south
wester sent her scudding about the
bay in lively fashion, with little fuss
and scarcely any fathery foam under
her smooth bow or in her clean wake.
Every point of sailing was tried. She
was hauled fiat on the wind, thrown
about half dozen times, given a good
broad reach and finally sent home be-
fore the wind her boom off to port,
and at no time did she act listless or
show any lack of speed.
1t was a builders trial and confined
entirely to six or seven miles of deep
water below Bristol harbor, no at
tempt being made to show her off to
the Newport colony, but merely to
give her designer a chance to see that
she was all that he meant her to be,
and in every respect she equalled his
expectations.

EX-CoNGRESSMAN BOUTELLE.
The Distinguished Statesman and
Retired Naval Captain Dies
of Pneumonia.

Boston, May 22.-Former Congress-
man Charles y. Bcutelle, OF Bangor,
Me-, died, yesterday, at the Mclean
asylum, Waverly, where he had been
confined for a year with brain troub-
lie. Death was due primarily to pneu-
mcnia, which developed last Sunday.
Mr.. Boutelle's daughter Grace. who
has been al the head of the household
since her mothers death in 1892. was
at the bedside.
Mr. Boutelle was 62 years of age,
and on his retirement from congress
last winter. was placed on the retired
list of the navy as a captain, an Of
tce to which he was eligible by rea-
son of civil war and congressional
committee services.
Mr.. Boutelle's illness dates from
December y, 1899, when he was seized
by fit OF Inconsistencies while at a
hotel in this city. He was carried TO
his room, and later became delirious.
At midnight it was announced that
Mr.. Boutelle was suffering from an at
tack o. congestion of the brain,
which ii was hoped would be only
temporary. Later Mr.. Boutelle was
taken TO bis home in Bangor. but i'm
mediately returned to Mclean asy-
lum, where he has since remained. His
mental condition, il is said. had i'm
proved considerably.

NUMBER As.
THE CHINESE INDEMNITY.
Pending Proposition for Settle
meut with China.

Washington, May 22.-The state de-
partmeaU has been made fully ac-
quainted. by Mr. Rockhill, with the
character of the propositions relative
to the floating of the indemnity loan
unfolded at Pekin. While grave OBJ
jections are perceived to the Russian
project Of a joint guarantee of tie
loan, because of the immense difficult
ty of securing the assent of congress
to an agreement which would en-
tangle the United States with foreign
nations foY more than a quarter of u
century, Mt least. there is nothing in
Mr.. Rockhill's instructions that would
cause him to antagonize the British
proposition, provided it is fully deyel-
oped so as to secure the safety of the
loan, while assuring the integrity Of
China. 1t is suggested that these OBJ
jects can be best secured by causing
China to deliver to each nation bonds
bearing four per cent. interest to the
face value of that nations indemnity
claim. The nation holding the bonds
could dispose of them at its pleasure.
~ tOuiu dIlA lls own guarantee ana
sell The bonds in the open market.
The claim for the collection and dis
tribution OF interest contains the
germ of the guarantee of Chinese in
tegrity. Il is proposed that an inter-
est board of financiers collect period
ically from China the amount of in
come which the ministers at Pekin
have decided can be extracted without
running the country, this money TO be
divided between the powers in The
shape of interest in exact proportion
10 the bonds held by them. In case
of default by China, each nation will
lose in proportion, and a special cove
nant viii bind each power TO refrain
from individual action against China
to secure the payment of the arrears.
or to seize territory in lieu Of inter-
est i'm default. IL is calculated that
thus each power would find it to its
interest to prevent n division of China.

THE CONSTITUTION MAKERS.
Minority Report Withdrawn and ola
Report >ubstituted-The init
ed states Justified

Havana, May 22.-At yesterdays
session OF the Cuban constitutional
convention Seuors Guilberto Gomez
and Silva withdrew the minority re-
port Of the committee on relations.
and substituted for it the old ma iori-
ty report OF the committee which was
drawn up before the commission went
to Washington, and was signed by
Senores Guilberto Gomez, Silva and
Nilluendas, but was never acted upon
by the convention, because it was 4
rejection of the Platt amendment,
particularly in respect of the right
of intervention, and the coaling sta.
tions.
This action of Senor Gomez is at
tributed to the bitter attack made
upon him Sunday by the radicals for
having accepted portions of the Platt
amendment.
Senior Nilluendas asked that hi,
name be stricken OFF the old report.
thus making it the report of the mi
nority, ana declared that he now ia
vored the majority report already be-
fore the convention
Senior Sanguilly made a bitter at
tack upon Senior Gomez and the radi-
Gals, asserting that the United States
had always been fair and honorable
in their dealings with Cuba, that the
policy of the Washington governments
was to establish the republic and that
the concessions asked by the United
States were necessary to maintain the
republic. He spoke for nearly two
hours.
The convention adjourned without
coming to vote.

We have read with much interest the
report Of Mrs M. E. Denham, presi-
dent of the Vicksburg Chapter U. d. G.,
to the recent annual meeting of the
Daughters in Meridian. Her report re.
lates mainly to the Veterans Hospital
Annex, which was opened for patients
on the 10Th of January-the birthday
OF Robert E. Lee. Toward the erection
OF the hospital the ladies raised ono
thousand dollars, and the State appro-
priated two thousand dollars. Generous
friends furnished the eight rooms. The
charity hospital trustees and physician
furnish maintenance and medical at
tention.
Since the opening of the Annex
twelve patients have been admitted,
mostly Mississippi veterans. One left
because he didn't like the rules, and
another, after two days, departed be-
cause he objected to a woman nurse.
The others are grateful for the shelter
and tender care they receive. Only one
complaint has been expressed by them
the sameness of hospital diet"
When this writer was recently in Vicks-
burg, the good DR.. Sproles asked US to
suggest to the Daughters throughout
the State to assist their Wick sburg sis.
ters in their patriotic and charitable
work by securing such articles of food
as will relieve the sameness-pickles,
jellies, preserves, etc. The express
companies, if requested, will send such
contributions free, and the old vets
will be made to feel that they are re-
membered by the good women of good
old Mississippi.

REFUSED TO SWEAR TO IT.
After Consulting n Lawyer, Mrs
Bonine Refuses to Make Oath
to Her Confession.

Washington, May 22.--The type.
written copy of her confession was
taken to Mrs. Bonine, yesterday, for
the purpose of having her swear to it,
as she was not under oath when she
made the statement Monday.
Mrs. Boninc, after making the con-
fession, had consulted lawyer, and
he advised her to avoid anything in
the nature of assisting the prosecr-
ton. When the confession was pre-
sented to her she positively refused 10
make the desired affidavit. After the
coroner's jury had rendered the yer.
dict Mrs. Bonine was removed to the
city jail.

In the second plans . dairy commissioner
IL needed to 90 about the various cream
cries and teach them the art OF butter

butter does not stand 80 high as Canadian

Gilbert thinks the dairy commissioner
would be wonderful help. ana would
really be dirt cheap at $500 per annum,

good many times over by enhancing the
price OF our butter. On the same page

what MIR. Gilbert claims an agricultural
commissioner has neen--an agriculture
commissioner tco, under the management
and direction of the Board of Agricul-
ture, which is the same body that is to
manage and direct the proposed dairy
commissioner. According to Mr. Gilbert,
this commissioner or teacher OF agricul-
ture has been spending only half the
money given him for instructing the
farmers, Tor that purpose, ara given no
account OF the remainder; has been en-
joying free board and lunches at tbs ex-
pense OF the farmers. and then charging
the state for them; has been paying
cream and butter testers extravaga n t
rewards; has kept back awards for
months, and has expanded cron bulletin
into journal or agrioultuIe-and ell
these things hs has done while servant

Tins passage OF the apportionment bill
by the House without any provision for
reduction OF representatives In those
states that have abridged the suffrage
pnts an end to all chance Of the enforce
ment of the Fourteenth Amendment for
ten years, at least. Fear Of that amend
ment has held back some OF the South
ern states from amending their oonstitu-
tions so as to cut the negro out OF the
suffrage, but now that this has bean re-
moved all the states that have large
colored population will proceed to elimi-
nate 1t from the suffrage. Within year
there will be hardlysa negro voting In
