Troubles of Asphalt Companies Are
 Being Investigated.

Being Investigated.
 Philadelphia. Mrach 2.--Committees rep resenting the bondholders of the National Asphalt Company and the Asphalt Com pany of America. which recently went into the hands of receiver, met sepa- of the Audit Company of New York which has been examining the books of the companies for 1900 and 1901.
 At the conclusion of the meetings Hen ry W. Riddle of the American company issued statement in which 1t is shown ization aggregating $5S,000,000 and nxed charges Of s2150,00O a year, the actual net earnings of the companies for the past two years have averaged only $SsO00 a year.
 The condition is in part explained by the statement that extraordinary ex- penses have been met in Venezuela ana that one of the underlying compantea, the National Contracting Company, has made heavy losses.
 Continuins, the statement says: "The results of the earnings of the combineb companies for the two years are so en- tirely unsatisfactory and are so meaTe in comparison with the baeis of capitafi- zation of the American and National companies. that the committee will con tinue to press It's investigations. which Is meant to be thorough in all respects, as the causes and reasons for such ap- parent over-capitalization." :.
 1t is thought that the affairs or the National Contracting Company. whose losses in three years on sewer and other work in New Orleans and elsewhere amounted to s5000, 900, will be wound up. Some of the members of the committee hold the opinion that the companlss' selves to asphalt and not carry. on a business so widely different as that of the National Contracting Company.

ate Committee on Philippines. represent ing them as endorsing his speech.
 Mir. Patterson said 1t was evident that General Funstons speech was to be used for campaign purposes. and he thought. therefore. that two things ought to be brought calmly and dispassionately to the attention of the country-hrst, Gen eral F'unstons own statement of the char acter of Ag,1inaldo, made in a magazine article last October, and second, the rules of civilized warfare regarding deception of the enemy.
 MT. Patterson then read at length the provisions of warfare relating to spies and the use of deception. and read ex- teusively from General Funston's maga- zine article. his point being that General Funston had violated the articles of war fare in deceiving the F1ljpinos at the time he captured Aguinaldo despite his state ment now that he had not done SO.
 In conclusion, Mir. Patterson said that all authorities upon international law and the articles of civilized warfare de- clared that the use of the enemy's uni- form was not warranted and that man in an enemy's uniform who killed another man was guilty of assassination and out side the pale of protection.
 When MT, Patterson had concluded, the Senate, at o'clock, went into executive session and soon afterward adjourned un- til Monday.

MIR. TsILKA IS HONEST.
Miss Stone Says lie is Incapable of
 an Ignoble Act.

Vienna. March 27.r-Miss Ellen M. Stone, the American missionary. passed through Vienna tonight on her way to London
 Miss Stone appeared to have recovered fro nr the effects of her captivity better than was expected 3y those who saw he:' at the time of her release. She said to a representative of the Associated Press:
 q have daily become better since l was liberated. This I owe mainly 10 the fact that for many years l have been 4 .customed to the air and food Of the locality Where was prisoner. The brie ands treated me and Mime. Tsilka as well as they could. They told us 1t was 10 their interess to keep us in as good health as possible. IS nobody would pay ransom for us if We were dead. Indeed, they did the best they could.
 My compar rion Mme. Tsilka, bore all the hardships brdvely. an only say the best about her as well as about her husband. whose reported arrest Tor com pli ,itv in our abducting Is quite absurd: The Rev. MT Tsilka is an honest ana int .lligcnt man. He was educated in America and speaks six languages. He s' nnitc incapable of a dishonest act. The American Minister at constaltinople, Mr i.eishman, says the same thing Of M Tsilka and tells me it is my duty to nrnclatm this openly and loudly.

London. March 2s.-In dispatch from Moscow the correspondent of The Daily Graphic gives an interview with a Rus sian staff officer who has returned from Amur. Siberia. The officer is quoted as saying that the Anglo-Japanese alliance has sealed the political destiny of Man churia which, says the officer, Will never pass out of Russia's possession.
 The brigandage rampant there will be used as justification for the retention of d >r wer -ul Russian army. After the brigaLds have been suppressed the Rus slams will remain In Manchuria to pro- feet their railway and secure peace in Northern China.

 The Association will be a national or gunization. I. will have its headquarters In Louisville and will be supported by a fund to which the distiliing and liquor jobbing interests of the entire country are expected to contribute.
 It Is understood that the organization will have unlimited financial backing, for representatives of the trade everywhere are taking a deep interest in the move- fment and have already authorized the promoters of the organization to call on them for funds The money will be used in employing speakers to conduct cam paigns in states where prohibitionists are strong; in distributing printed matter; in employing statisticians and writers on economic subjects and apti-prohibition arguments particularly.

We want to show these people. with speakers and literature. that in passing prohibition measures they only reduce their revenue and do not benefit their States.
