For some weeks past two special de-
tectives acting under instructions from
Superintendent of Police Day have been
quietly engaged in securing evidence
against the keepers Of speakeasies In
various parts Of the city. Last night
the first trap was sprung when five OF
them were arrested, given a hearing
and fined all in the space Of an hour.
The places raided are all located In
South Scranton and the raids were
made under the personal supervision Of
Superintendent Day, who had Captain
Williams, Lieutenant Zang and big
squad of patrolmen with him. Two men
were sent to each place. and the pris-
oners were all brought to the Alder
street station house where Magistrate
Storrs was in waiting to give them
hearings.
Mrs. Gibbons, of 2124 Pittston ave-
nue., who runs bar-room behind an
innocent looking candy shop. was ar
rested as we'll as Patrick Langan. of
1877 Fig street; Joseph Kramer Of 927
Prospect avenue; Matthew Pfaff, of
1101 Meadow avenue and Robert Schu-
mer Of 1901 Blucher avenue.
The two policemen who went to ar
rest Schumer couldn't find him in the
house and as they were standing in the
dark outside he drove up in a wagon.
Want to get a drink. boys?" he
called out. "Just wait q minute If you
do. I've just been down buying some
bottled beer and other stuff. I've got 1t
here on the wagon with me-"
Schulner was SO startled when he
learned who the officers We're that he
let go the reins and the horse nearly
ran away. Magistrate Storrs conduct
ed hearings in all the cases in the sta
tion house. The two special detectives
testified to having purchased intoXi-
cants in all the places at various times.
The magistrate fined each Of the pris-
oners $50 and $500 costs. All paid be-
fore midnight. Pfaff protested that he
had bottler's license but it was point
ed out that this gives him no authority
to sell at retail.
The police announced last night that
more raids will follow at once.

CAPT. ROSBaILL BOWS
70 JAPANESE RIGHTS
No Trouble Over Occupation
of Marcus Island.
Report of Count Matsu, of Local Lega-
tion, to the State De-
partment.

Count Mutsu. secretary of the Jap
anese legation, yesterday informed the
State Department that Captain RosehilI
has left Marcus Island. and that there
was no friction between him and the
Japanese government during his stay.
On arriving at the island. Captain
Rosehill was given the letter from
United States Minister Buck. which had
been Dro.sh. by Japanese cruiser. and
which informed him that the United
States Government recognized the claim
of the Japanese government to sover-
eighty over the island. He remained
there about week and chen departed.
Captain RoschiIl claimed the island
by right of discovery, but failed to file
his claim with the State Department for
some years Meanwhile some Japanese
went there and began working the
guano deposits. Hearing OF this, Captain
Rosehill started with sloop 70 take
possession. and il was reported that
he was going to make war on the Japs.
The presence of the Japanese gunboat.
and the letter from the United States
telling him he would not
be backed up, made him change his
mind.

returned not long ago from Copenhagen,
where she had been to inspect the work
of Mr.. Sinding.
When Mr.. Rohl-Smith died two years
ago, leaving the Sherman statue in an
unfinished state, new contract was
made by his widow with the War De-
partment, under which she agreed to
take charge and supervise the compile

modelled elaborate designs on a smah
scale for every part of it. He had also
finished the models for three of the four
soldiers for the corners of the base, and
had completed the bronze bas-reliefs
for the four sides of the granite pedes-
tal. The designs and models for the
figures of War" and Peace as al
ready stated. were finished
Upon assuming the responsibility for
the completion cf the monument Mrs.
Rohl- Smith searched for American art
lists to take up the work and complete
il according to the detailed plans laid
down by her husband. But those Ameri-
can artists who were possessed of suffi
cient capability were either too busy, or
made excuses, possibly feeling that the
statue should have been awarded TO an
American at first.

The Secretary of War has promulgat,

Where He Reviewed His Army.
On the day of the great review OF his
army at the close of the civil war, Sher-
man, who had ridden at the head of his
troops down the broad stretch of Penn
sylvania Avenue, suddenly rened in his
horse when he reached the space south
of the Treasury Building, and from his
saddle regarded the serried legions as
they swept past him. 1t is almost on
this spot that lis monument viii stand
The attitude of the figure is that of
a general who sits erect to look proudly
at the army which has followed him to
victory He has removed his hat in
response TO the applause OF the peo-
PIE. but the pose suggests the exal-
tation that comes from knowledge of
work well done, rather than vanity re-
suitant of the plaudits OF the crowd.
The hand which holds the reirs is firm,
and the fingers of the other are sunken
in the> felt Of the doffed hat. 1t is
picture OF one whose thoughts are of
his soldiers, and not of any scheme to
set the great wind of applause which
greets him to the filing of the sails of
his own political bark.

Plaster Cast, Full Size, Set
Up at South Front
of the Treasury.
ATTRACTS A LARGE CROWD
General Miles Invited to Inspect It, But
Was Out of the City-Work of Com
pleting Rohl- Smiths Task Creditably
Done by Lauritz Jensen.

The plaster model of the equestrian
statue of General Sherman, which is to
occupy the site south of the Treasury
Department, WIS set up and exhibited
for several hours yesterday, that being
the first time the sections have been put
together outside of the studio.
Mrs. Carl Rohl-Smith. the widow of
the sculptor, and Mr.. Lauritz Jensen,
the sculptor, who was selected by Mrs.
Rohl-Smith to complete the work from
the point it was dropped at the death
of her husband. superintended the work
of fitting together the sections of the
plaster cast.
The model was placed on a wooden
stand about fifty yards to the west Of
the pedestal of granite on which the
completed bronze figure of the general
will stand. and directly in front of the
studio where the whole was designed and
executed. 1t was the intention of the
late Mr.. Rohl-Smith to have a track
built leading from the door Of the studio
into the space in front, SO that when
completed the model might be moved
to the open without the necessity of TAX
ing it to pieces and setting it up again.
The object in erecting the model out
of doors was that Mrs. Rohl-Smith and
Mr.. Jensen wished to be perfectly satis-
fed that there was no detail that needed
changing before the statue was cast in
to bronze. The War Department made
no request to be permitted to view the
statue out of the studio, that action be-
ing taken to satisfy those in charge of
the work that it was all it should be
more. than for any other reason.
An invitation was sent to General
Miles to view the model yesterday. but
he was out of the city, and his aide. Col
onel Whitney, and several other Of
fcials of the War Department went in
stead.
Ready for Casting.
The model was only left on exhibition
throughout the afternoon. 1t was then
taken down, and the sections made
ready for shipment tomorrow morning
to the Gorham Manufacturing Company's
works at Providence, R. l., where it will
be cast into bronze.
The models for the figures of War,
and Peace" which are to stand on the
cast and west sides of the stone base of
the monument. are expected to arrive
fn America some time this week. The
models have been cast in plaster by Mr..
Stephen Sinding,s a noted sculptor of
Copenhagen. Mr.. Sinding will accom-
pany the models TO this country, and
before they are cast into bronze try
their effect in the places which they are
designed TO occupy. The figures were |
modelled by Mr. Sinding from the smal |

STATUS OF PAY CLERKS.
Comptroller of the Treasury Reverses
Mr., Maynard's Decision.

The Comptroller of the Treasury yes
terday rendered decision relative to
longevity pay of army officers. which
is of considerable interest in both army
and navy circles. He said. in part:
"The status Of paymaster's clerk In
the army is about the same as pay
masters clerk in the navy. and in view
of decisions both of the courts and of
the accounting officers. l think it must
be held that paymaster's clerk in the
army is in service in the army within
the meaning of the act of February "a.
1881 and that therefore the time OF such
service must be counted in computing
his longevity in subsequent service as
commissioned officer.
This view is contrary to the decision
of Second Comptroller Maynard, which
must be overruled, but it is in harmony
with the decisions of the courts and of
this Office in cases analogous and where
the same principle is involved"
The decision was rendered in answer
to request from Capt. James Candy.
