ASKS REMOVAL OF
 CHINESE MINISTER
MANcHU SOLDIER CHARGES THAT WU TING FANG RETAINED $so,ooo OF THE TEEN TSlN SILVER FOR REPAIRS.

Pekin, March 10-A prominent Manchu soIdierHhas memoralized the throne for the removal of Wu Ting Fang, the Chinese minister to the United States.
 The accusation says that Wing Ting corruptly retained, ostensibIy for repairs to the Chinese legation in Washington, ssO 900 of the Tien Tsin silver refunded by the American government.
 According to a dispatch from Washing ton, dated January 2S. Secretary Hay that day handed to Minister Wu Ting Fang a draft or the United States treas ury for S376,600, the value of the silver bullion captured by American marines at Tien Tsin.
 The Washington dispatch continued that as Minister Wu was charged with the payment of salaries of the Chinese rsuls in the United States and with defraying the expenses of the Chinese le- gations in Washington, Lima and Mad rid, it was believed the money would be applied to those purposes.
 Wu Makes Statement.
 Washington, March 10.-Mr. Wu said tonight that he promptly informed his government as soon as the United States turned over to him the Tien Tsin silver fund and the money was placed at its disposal. An acknowledgment was re- ceived by telegraph. Not one cent of the fund, MT. Wu said, could be misap- propriated, and if any portion of it were to be used for any purpose whatever, this could be done only by the sanction of the Chinese government The minister has not heard officially of the presenta- tion of the memorial for his removal, but he treats the matter lightly. There Is, he says. no foundation for the state ment that he retained $S0,O0O of the fund for repairs to the legation at Washing ton. He thinks the presentation of the memorial to have been the work of some person acting under a misapprehension or on some transformation.

MOVEMENT TO FIGHT
 CUBAN RECIPROCITY
Members of New Orleans Cotton Ex- change Send Letters Out In Effort
 to Defeat Proposed Action.

New Orleans. March 10.-Believing that great injury to Louisiana, as we'll as to the country at large, would result from any reductsn in the tariff on Cuban sugars, the New Orleans Cotton Ex- change has addressed to each of the sister exchanges throughout the United States a letter requesting their official co-opera- tion towards defeating the proposed meas ure now being agitated in Congress.
 The main points advanced are:
 That the matter is not one of politics but solely commercial.
 That Cuba has already quadrupled her crop since the war and is therefore in no need of help.
 That to destroy or injure an already established interstate commerce of S9O, 100000 annually for mere sentiment would be suicidal.
 And that to strangle a fast growing industry beet sugar. that promises within ten years to be able to supply all our needs, and to distribute s1S0, ,0O0. 900 yearly through the various channels of trade. would be a grievious commercial mistake.

ASHINGTON, March 10.-rhe kME third change in the cabinet of EW President Roosevelt occurred when Secretary Long submitted his resig- nation in a graceful letter, it being ac- cepted in one equally felicitious by the President. The change was made complete by the selection of Representative Wm. Henry Moody of the Sixth Congressional district of Massachusetts as Mir. Longs successor in the navy department eff fective May 1.
 This change has been expected for a long time. MT. Long had intended to re- tire at the beginning of the late President McI<inley's second term, but he consent ed to remain until certain lines of policy in which he were involved were more sat isfactorily arranged. Then when Presi- dent Roosevelt succeeded, though anx- ious to return to private life, for Secreta- " Long\will never again enter public life, a strong feeling of loyalty toward MT. Roosevelt induced the secretary to defer his retirement until it was convenient for the President to make change. When MT. Long entered the cabinet originally he was an active member of the firm of Hemingway & Long we'll known legal firm of Boston. He always has maintain ed silent connection with the concern and will again become an active partner.
 The news that Representative Moody of Massachusetts had been offered and had accepted the navy portfolio reached the capitol shortly after noon and MT. Moody, who was on the floor of the house was showered with hearty congratulations from Democrats as well as republicans.
 MT. Moody began to rise to prominence

 Sketch of MT. Long.
 John Davis Long was born ir Maine October 27, 1888. At an early age he mani fested a great deal of precocity and re- moved to Massachusetts. Entered Har- yard at IA years of age, graduated second in his class, and was the commencement poet. This did not prove a bar, however, to his further advancement He filled sue cessfully the position of legislator and Governor, twice defeating Benjamin F. Butler for the latter position.

Was made secretary of the navy by President Mckinley in March, 1897. and has served continuously ever since. Has been ac- cused of being unfriendly to Admiral Schley and is known to be the author of a translation of Virgils Aeniad.

these little evidences of appreciation
come along there is no doubt about the

The above suggestion will not only ap-
