BOGUS SECRET DOCUMENTS.
Statement that Russia FOmented
Trouble in China Is Denied.

Correspondence Of the Associated Press.
ST PETERSBURG, Jan. 1O.-An English
newspaper a few days ago printed series
of alleged secret documents communicated
by certain DR.. Alexander Ular which, if
STA instigated the Boxer movement in
China for political purposes and that the
pending treaty concerning Manchura or
rather the first draft of it, giving Russia
extensive exclusive rights in Mongolia and
Turkistan well, prepared by Ii
Hung Chang and the Russians before the
Boxer outbreak The documents make lib
eral use of the name of Prince Oukhtomsky
and that of Mr.. Won Grote, who has been
engaged in gold mining in Mongolia with
the aid of St. Petersburg capital and Amer
lean miners and mining machinery
The correspondent of the Associated Press
showed the articles to Prince Oukhtomsky.
He promptly declared them a ''humburg"
and said that eight of nine months previous
to the Boxer outbreak he was quietly in
St. Petersburg or in Paris engaged in pre-
pairing the Siberian exhibit. He positively
said that he was during this period wholly
In the dark in regard to Chinese affairs and
denied that he had any correspondence
mentioned in the articles. Moreover, he
serted that Mr.. Won Grote far from being
an agent of the Russian government, was
not even connected with the Russo-Chinese
bank. Mr.. Won Grote was a heavy loser
by the Chinese troubles machinery valued
at half a million roubles being destroyed.
1T is a pure humbug and lie from begin
ming to end as far as it concerns myself"
declared Prince Oukhtomsky. Further
more, the UMPIRE paredness of Russia and the
losses she sustained do not indicate the
Russian government was better informed
about the Boxers than other powers"

TRACTION CONSOLIDATION.
All Lines i'm Philadelphia May BE
Controlled by One Company.

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 25.-The Evening
Bulletin to-day publishes the following
President John 3. Parsons, of the Union
Traction, to-day sent out notices to the
directors TO meet him at o'clock on Mon
day afternoon. The notice was not written,
but delivered verbally to each director in
order to insure it reaching them. The OBJ
ject of the meeting is to consider a propo-
sition Of a company composed of New York
and Philadelphia capitalists to take over
the Union Traction Company in it's entirety,
with underlying companies, franchises, cor
porate privileges and all of its real and
personal property. President Parsons has
been acting on behalf of the company for
several weeks on the preliminaries leading
up to the proposed sale, but SO far has not
made known the terms suggested, waiting
to secure more favorable ones. This ne sue
ceeded in obtaining to-day and promptly
sent out notices for the directors to meet
him on Monday. The principal object of
the new company is to change it's stock for
that of the Union Traction Company, but
just on what basis cannot be ascertained
in advance of the meeting
If the proposed deal is successfully negO-
tiated 1t will result in the consolidation of
the Union Traction Company, which con-
trolls all the street-raiway lines in the city
and the recently organized company, head
ed by Congressman Foerderer and John M
Mack, millionaire contractor of Philadel-
phia, which has been awarded every fran
chise for all streets not occupied by car
lines.

WRATH IN AUSTRALASIA
BRITAIN ACCUSED OF NEGLECTING
HER PARKWAY COLONY.
Giving Meat Contracts to Argentina
When Australasia Has More Beef
than Customers.

SIDNEY, n. S. w, Jan. 25.-The placing
of contracts in Argentina by the British
War Office to supply meats and other prod
ucts for the troops in South Africa has
engendered extreme irritation throughout
Australasia. The action of the imperial
authorities is regarded as evidence of rep
rehensible indifference to the claims of the
colonies, as ill according with the express
sions of imperial solidarity, as poor repay
ment for the sacrifices of the colonies,
and generally as grave injustice. Most OF
the premiers of Australasia and the pre-
mier of New Zealand have cabled to the
imperial government strong protests in
practically identical terms, saying that the
two colonies are able 10 supply the War
Office requirements in South Africa three
times over. Both colonies it is pointed
out, have more meat than customers, and
while they are doing all in their power to
build up and strengthen the empire it is
incomprehensible that trade is given to for
eigners, especially Argentina, thus bringing
into the field a keen competitor with the
people of Australasia. The premiers fur
Their declare that they feel such action is
wrong and unfriendly, and that the blunder
should be promptly retrieved.

The awe-inspiring force of this voltage
may be best appreciated when it is remem-
bered that only 500 volts are employed for
driving trains on railway Yet the pa

ence is that in very bad cases of consump-

nightsweats have disappeared, the appetite

Dutch Prisoners Not Released.

THE HAGUE, Jan. 25.-The minister of
foreign affairs, Melvin Van Lyndon, reply
ing, to-day, to an Interpolation in the
first chamber of the states generate, said
he had done his utmost to secure the re-
lease of the Dutch members of the Red
Cross Society who are held as prisoners
in Ceylon, but was forced to admit that
these persons had placed themselves in an
almost indefensible position by carrying
Boer letters The fact that the documents
were of no Importance did not alter the
violation of strict neutrality. The case,
the minister said, was bound to have an
important bearing on the question as to
what service a neutral ambulance corps
might render in future wars.
