KITCHENER STILL IN FAVOR.
He viii Maintain Command White
Salisbury Is Premier.

LONDON, March 14-Rumor mongers
are profting by the lack of detailed in
formation respecting the military situa-
ton in the Transvaal. They are repeat
ing stories about the recall of Kitchener,
the return of Lord Roberts to South
Africa and the promotion of French as
commander in South Africa.
These reports are dismissed with con-
tempt by officials and military men as
even more preposterous than the assump-
ton that Delarey will re- establish the
siege Of Mafeking or make a dash for
Johannesburg.
Lord Salisbury has decisive influence
in determining the selection Of the com
mander of the forces in South Africa
and Lord Kitchener has been his favolite
general from the outset 1t was Lord
Salisbury who suggested the appointment
of Gen. Kitchener as Lord RoDerts
chief Of staff, when Gen. Buffers cam
pa1gn went wrong after C0lenSo, and
there is no evidence that the prime MIN
lister is dissatisfied with the results Of
recent operations.
Information is required respecting the
column which Lord Methuen expected to
join when he set out from Vryberg, but
otherwise there has been no appreneII-
sion on the part of the military authori-
ties of serious results from the recent
defeat. which was mainly due to a panic
among the unseasoned yeOmanry. It
seems probable, however, that the num-
Der of Beers under Dewet, who succeed
ed in breaking through the British block
mouse lines, was considerably larger ths n
official reports intimate, and that q con-
junction may have been effected with
Delarey.
The newspapers are puzzled to account
for the release of Gen. Methuen, but
they generally give credit to Delarey for
acting with great moderation, courtesy
and tact The Daily Mail expects to see
either Gen. Cronje or Gen ViIjoen re-
turned to the Beers in exchange for the
British general

the members after the meeting said that
the prospects for an agreement were good
but that the form of the agreement was
still in doubt. no one plan yet having
shown it's advantages over the others.
There were no votes taken at the meet
ing today.
FOrdney Has New Plan.
Members of the ways and means COM
mittee stated with poSitiVeneSs today
that the conferences now in progress
would result in a compromise agreement
on the Cuban reciprocity issue, probably
on lines of 20 per cent concession for one
or two years.
On the other hand some Of the confer
ees representing the element opposed to
the ways and means stated that while an
amicable adjustment undoubtedly would
be reached there would be no consent to
any plan involving a reduction of tariff.
Representative F'Ordney, of Michigan, one
of the conferees, takes this view and has
favored the conclusion of plan by which
there shall be reduction of 20 per cent
on United States goods going into Cuba
and in return the payment to Cuba out Of
the United States treasury of an amount
equal to 20 per cent of the duties on
Cuban goods coming here.
Mr.. FOrdney holds that this will give
the desired relief without involving a re-
duction of duty. The plan is somewhat
similar to the rebate proposition, hereto
fore presented, except that this payment
is to go direct to Cuba instead of the
planters

the necessity Of eliminating ones inter

MADE STRONG STATEMENT.
Chief Ames Thinks Certain Police
Officers Got s'Hush Money"

1t Is claimed that Chief Of Police
Ames made the following statement yes
terday: Il believe that there have been
instances during the past few months
in which officers of the police depart
ment have received hush money There
have been to my knowledge several
cases where criminals have been appre-
hended, and yet have been permitted to
leave the city before there was an OPP
portunity for trial. 1 myself am certain
that some Of the officers who have had
these cases received money from the
crooks. Yet l have not the positive
proof, and what can l do?'
The offenses of the department to
which the chef bore witness have been
so palpable as to cause considerab BILE
comment among officers OF the municipal
court who have had their attention
drawn to cases by the non-appearance
of criminals known to have been in the
custody of certain police officers.
These conditions in the past have been
the subject of much criticism, and the
above statement of the chief will no
doubt cause another TRADE among those
who are opposed to present methods.

cIares, Is Safe.
Special to The Globe.
WASHINGTON, March 14-Representa-
tive Fletcher said tonight that there was
unnecessary feeling in Minnesota about
the attitude of Minnesota congressman
on the sugar beet question. He said that
there was practically a conviction among
business men that the Minnesota con-
gressmen by opposing reciprocity were
closing the market to Minneapolis -four
and Northwestern agricultural products.
He claims that even now Cuba is using
only American flour, and that there are
few products which are being imported
which do not come from the United
States. He says that this year Cuba
will not use fifty barrels Of flour which
do not come from this country.
How will we increase the American
market IL a country where We already
seh all goods of the lines I mentioned"
said Mr.. Fletcher. "a few powerful men
have jumped on a new industry in the
United States and are trying to crush it.
If there is anything in the protection the
DRY 1t is to build up newindustries. Old
ones take care Of themselves.
IF left alone. | am told by the depart
ment of agriculture, growers Of the sugar
beet in comparatively few years will
supply the United States with all the
sugar it consumes. Let US go ahead
and give the farmer a chance with his
new product. Other people have had lots
of protection. Give the farmer some.
1t will harm no other American product
to give it this chance, and Cuba can even
tually supply other parts Of the world.
How ridiculous it is to talk of of let
ting the reduction take place for two
years. That is the compromise offer,
but as q fact it is now that industry needs
protection. Later on it can get along on
it's own accounts

NEW OFFICE BUILDING.
Plans for $4,000 Structure Now
Under Way.

Under Way.
An Office building to cost $50 600 will be
built this summer on the southwest cor
ner of Second avenue south and Fourth
street.
The interested parties are E. G.. Wal
ton, of Minneapolis; Luther Cushing St
Paul, and the Chicago real estate firm,
Adds & NOrthcote.
This improvement has been talked
about more or less during the past three
years. For various reasons it has not
been considered advisable to carry out
the plans up 10 the present time, but
now the interested people have decided
that the opportunities for an office
building in this part of the business dis
trict are excellent.
The building will be 60 by 1873 feet and
three stories high. 1t will be built very
heavy and every provision made for ad-
d11tonaI stories in the future 1t is eX-
pected that most of the ground floor will
be used by grain men with general offices
on the other two floors.
The plans will be rushed by the archi-
tect in whose hands the matter will be
placed today. Work will commence by
May l.
The corner upon which the building is
to be erected has never been improved.
1t will consequently mean ag reat deal
to this aprt of the business district.

no concern, but stand against PROPOSE
ton which theoretically would harm New
England knit goods"
Mr.. Stevens says he has drawn a bill
embracing the principal articles included
in the French treaty. On the day the
ways and means leaders introduce their
bill for reciprocity with Cuba, should that
day come, he will introduce his bill for
reciprocity with France.
If we can ignore the senate in the case
of Cuba and get reciprocity by legisla-
tion, we can get reciprocity with France
in the same way says Mr.. Stevens.

owing to an injury to bad wrist. Her

and GOODNESS in continuing their strong

MAY GET AUDITORIUM.
Commercial Club and National
Guard May Unite on Plans.

The desire of the people of Minneapo-
lis for an auditorium may at last be
satisfied, if the Commercial club and the
National Guard will get together on some
proposition that will be feasible.
The plan is a feasible one under the
recent law passed by the legislature au-
thorizing cities to issue bonds for armo-
ries. Mr.. Paul, of the Commercial club
said that they had received several sug-
gestions along this line but as yet they
had formed no definite conclusions as to
what would be the best way to go about
it. He said Minneapolis needs cOnven-
ton hall and an armory the worst way,
but whether the two could be combined
under the same roof is somewhat of a
problem
The plan will be carefully considered
by the citizens and members of the
National Guard, and 1T is expected that
some scheme may be evolved and a
line Of action agreed upon that may re-
suit in the Combination Of interests.

his actions were approved by former
