CRUELTY is UNSURPASSED
white Says History Has No Parallel
10 ROumnnian Treatment
of Jews.

BERLIN. Nov. 25.-A private letter writ
ten by Ambassador White. on the treat
mept Of Hebrews in Roemania. appears
in the Frankfurter Zeitune today.
The letter which YVES not intended for
present publication. is in part:
The Roumanian atrocities are simply
monstrous and startie the civilized world.
I have Just received the Rsta.alllsn bulletin.
No document equals IL in cruelty since the
series Of laws with which Louis XIV per-
secuted the Huguenots. But even those
which have been regarded as the acme Of
cruelty are exceeded by those in the. Bull
letin.
Il cannot believe that right thinking
Roumanians of the civilized powers can
allow this condition to continue, il appears
open defiance to laws, justice and human
decency."

MEXICAN SILVER TAKES DROP
Nearly Three silver Dollars Now
Needed TO Buy One
of Gold.

MEXICO CITY. Nov. S5.-The premium on
New York exchange continues TO advance
and today il was 1S5-that is. Sass Mexican
silver is required to buy one American gold
dollar. Farmers and planters say they do
not care II the dollar falls 10 30 cents,
only the city merchants and importers want
gold. They urge that deprecated silver
keeps the dollars in the country and makes
business good.
Importers take another view and are gen.
orally refusing to make prices on machin-
cry and supplies except in gold. Bankers
realize that payments coming due will be
made in dollars worth considerably less
than when the money was loaned. The gov
ernment has the matter under advisement
and sdvices regarding the adoption Of a
gold standard from Europe and the United
States are being constantly received.

Of its apprentices being Cubans. The COM

ployes.

FEWER TAXES REDUCE CASH
slump in Internal
Receipts.

WASHINGTON Nov. 25.-The commits
sionsr OF internal revenue, in his report
for the fiscal year ended June 30, says by
the acts Rbolishing the war taxes, internal
revenue taxes have been reduced about
800 .0O0. 600. There has been, however. an
increase OF revenue from taxes laid on
distilled spirits and other objects not
affected by war revenue legislation.
The receipts Of the bureau for 1901 were
SsOs ST.. .s6s and for 1902. S271 SCI. $50.
Congress having provided for taxes paid
on legacies and bequests TO religious, char
liable or educational institutions 10 be
refunded. claims on this account amount
ing 10 t4S5 900 have been allowed, and It
is believed the total will amount 70 some
$40 900. Rebates on original and unbroken
factory packages Of tobacco. snuf and
cigars amounting TO sS.lOs,5ll have also
been paid.
In addition 10 the claims for refund or
rebate presented there have been filed dur
ing 1899, 4.74S claims for abatement of
taxes assessed. OF these. s.s57 were al
lowed. amounting TO S4.1s7. .ss1. and 40.
amounting to s44s .2S4 were rejected.
In 1901 the total production OF spirits
was l2S. .5ss .2oi gallons; in 1909. 1s2.s43. .so2
gallons In 1901. in round numbers. 100.
OOO.OOO gallons OF tAx-paid spirits were
withdrawn; in 1902. 10000. 900.
The percentage OF cost Of collection for
1909 is $40. an increase Of Is cents on
each 800. as compared with the preceding
year. This increased percentage is due
largely TO expenses attending changes in
the revenue laws the cost Of handling re-
bate claims on tobacco, the redemption Of
stamps and the decrease in total revenue
collected.
II is estimated that the receipts from
all sources OF internal revenue for 1908 will
aggregate 422o. .O00, 900.
During the year revenue agents seized
and destroyed l.0s4 Illicit stills and ar
rested ! .0S6 persons for violations OF the
revenue laws. During that time one Agen'

WASHINGTON. Nov. 25.-EIceptional in
terest was displayed in today's meeting
Of the cabinet. in view Of the near ap-
proach Of the short congressional session.
The president presented his annual mes
sage TO congress in completed form Most
Of the features we're familiar 10 the mem
bers Of the cabinet and only such parts
as had not been considered previously were
read in full. All the members were present
except Secretary Root.
Secretary Hay, in presenting the canal
negotiations said they had come TO dead
stop and while no such thing az an ulti-
mstum had passed. the Colombian minister
had informed the State department that be
could not accept the last proposition OF the
United States as q basis Of a treaty. The
State department had already let IL be
known that it had come to the end Of its
concessions. so the chance Of a renewal
Of the negotiations in the near future we're
not bright.
This state OF affairs would IT was be-
lieved stimulate the negotiations with
Nicaragua and Costa Rica for the alternate
route but Il now appeared that those coun-
tries we're not disposed to allow themselves
TO be used for the purpose Of coercing Col
ombia, and were deEirous Of remaining
IN the background until it was certain no
treaty would be made between the United
States and Colombia
The original Panama concessions would
expire in 1904, and it had been suggested
that the Colombian government had that
fact in mind and was disposed to daily
now in the expectation that the franchise
would relapse and enable It to build the
canal itself or sell a new concession. Such
a course would raise a serious question
between the Colombian government. the
Panama company. the French government
and the government Of the United States
as to whether a supplementary decree ex-
tending the concession ten years from IeoI
WAS valid.

DISCOVERED
Method by Which Starch Food

r. Anderson, curator of the herbarium
at Columbia University, has discov-
cred method by means of which
starch granulesas well as starchy seeds

broken up without the use Of water
DR., Anderson says:
THE only difference between starch
paste or starchy food products pre-
pared by the ordinary method of boil

method OF expanding them is that the
resulting products expanded when dry
can be kept indefinitely in their dry
condition, while the products prepared
with water easily spoil and ferment
when not aftcrward sterilzed and
kept in closed vessels. Their digesti-
bility is greatly heightened by sub
