FRAUDS AT MANILA.
An Investigation of the Quartermas-
tersDepartment.

Washington, Aug. 1S-That the Uni
ted States has been defraude1. of thous-
ands of dollars by willy Filipino water
men, who, with lighters, urIoad all the
transports and large vesseis which en-
ter Manila. is evident from an investi-
cation begun by the auditor for the war
department. Just where the fault lies
is not yet evident, but collusion is sus-
pected upon the part Of army oHcers

have the work in charge. There. has
been much carelessness in the depart
ment. The general method OF the sWln-
die seems to have been for the owners
of lighters to register them IN the Gus
toms offices as carrying more than their
real capacity. and then obtain pay on
the basis of the fraudulent registration.
The officials of the auditors office are
working on accounts turned over to
them by the chief of the bureau of in
sular affairs.
In the transfers of supplies from the
transports lying at anchor in the harbor
to the quartermaster's storehouse in the
city about IA different kinds of boats
are employed, including cascoes, bancas.

craft. While the business of lightering

of two firms. there are nearly as pany
owners as boats. Registers of these
vessels are kept in duplicate books. one
of which is retained at Manila, the other
in Washington. This registry includes.
not only the names of owners and gross
and net tonnage of each boat, but the
name of the previous owner and the
name of the owner in April. 1899, the

displacement and it's speed capacity.
The facts already in possession of the
auditor show apparent discrepancies be-
tween the insular affairs abstracts and
between the lighter register and the
quartermaster's accounts. Boats work
ing through a certain number of hours
and between given points are credited
with more trips than their speed would
permit and with more tonnage than
their actual capacity. The register
shows an extreme variation in the price
paid for lightering, some running from,
seven cents to several dollars ton, ac-
cording to distance and character of
cargo.
It has been suddenly realized that the
bonding system for quartermaSters is
inadequate. Men handling stores to the
value of millions of dollars are required
to furnish bonds of $4,000 or less. The
statement is also made in army circles
that most. If not all, of such quarter
m asters' bonds are worthless. Promo
ton in rank partly explains this condf-
ton. One case is cited in which a ma
jor was promoted to be a lieutenant
colonel more than year ago. and since
then to a colonel, and he has not fur
nished a new bond since 1898.

due time he reached the conclusion
that there ought to be An investixat

named himself as such committee and
started out to discover:

the Peasant. "and you'll probably need
