GEN. WOOD IS INNOCENT
SECRETARY ROOT SAYS RATHBONE's
CHARGES ARE GROUNDLEss.
No Action Will Be Taken in Regard
to the Allegations OF the Ex-Df-
rector of Cuban Posts.

WASHINGTON, March 23.-Secretary
Root to-day took official action on the
charges made by e. G. Rathbone against
Brig. Gen. Leonard Wood. He made an
Endorsement on the papers, saying that no
answer to the charges was required from
General Wood and no action will be taken
thereon, that 1t was known to the secretary
of war that the charges in every respect
were without just foundation. The secre-
tary refers to the part taken by the military
governor in the postofice cases in which
Rathbone was a defendant, saying that
General Wood at every step had the ap-
prevail Of the secretary of war and exercised
only such control as was necessary as mill
tary governor. He refers to the game of
Jai Alai and declares that the gift accepted
by General Wood had no relation whatever
to any official action of his, but was part
of the expression of gratitude of the Cuban
people toward the representative Of the
United States. To have refused the gift
would have been discourteous and unjusti-
fable The actions of the customs officials
in reference to the gift. the secretary says.
was strictly in accordance with law and
official propriety. The Endorsement closes
as follows: There is no foundation for
the charges"

Party Committeeman.

To the Editor Of the Indianapolis Journal:
find this strong and truthful sentiment
at the close Of your excellent editorial this
morning:
committeeman to his normal functions-the
cease to be the manipulation or boss of pre-
cinct or ward and become what his name
fmplies-a committee-a man charged with
duty to the whole party"
AS an outsider make no claim to inter-
fere with the local affairs of Indianapolis
AS a charter member of the Republican
party give hearty assent to the above
statement of principle and policy and it
ought to stand in capital letters at the
head Of the editorial column of every Re-
publican paper in the State. Some one said
a party, but Rome has no party" This
statement may be applied to present con-
ditions in this State. Jones has a party
and Smith has a machine and Brown has
his lieutenants all working for their men,
and in the scramble the country and the
party are forgotten.
The politics of the State has been wrested
from the people by the place hunter The
people are patient and long suffering, but
there comes point when endurance ceases
to be a virtue. When the people move no
power can stop them. No party can long
exist when the masses discover they are
being cheated out of their rights by those
who see nothing in politics outside of their
own preferment. WILL CUMBACK.

ST. PETERSBURG, March 2s.-Letters

scribe the riots which occurred there
March 8. About seventy students attended
a local court in connection with Islander
case and on leaving were surrounded by the
police. The students broke through the
Gordon and marched past the university
shouting: Down with the autocracyi" The
number of those taking part in'the demon
stration was increased to some three thou
sand persons, and the situation became so
alarming that the chief of police barricaded
the bridge and summoned reinforcements.
The Governor, Prince Viasemsky, arrived
on the scene and ordered the rioters to be
attacked. Some of them were beaten, and
the whole body of rioters were finally over
come. Seventy-six men were confined In
the courtyard of the police station, where,
1t is claimed, they were much abused. DR..
Schletchter and a lawyer of the name of
Voznesensky, who demonstrated with the

May Cross Border to Suppress Dis
order II Quiet In Not Restored.
PARIS, March 23.-It Is said at the For
eign Office that official reports show that
there is a growing state of disorder in
southern China, particularly along the bor-
der of French Indo-China. chiefly due to
the operations of bands Of Chinese
brigands. French interests have received
reasonable protection until lately through
the vigilance of Mandarin Su ST, but since
he has been superseded there has been
much lawlessness and many depredations.
Although the French authorities have not
yet taken definite action the officials here
confirm the reports from Shanghai to the
effect that a continuance Of the disorder
will undoubtedly lead to the sending OF
French troops across the border TO sup
press the brigands and insure protection of
French interests. The Foreign ONCE has
no advice regarding the published report
that the French commander at Tien-Tsin
has demanded $1,5O0.000 compensation and
new barracks before he will evacuate the
arsenal there. 1t is said that such re-
quest would necessarily be made through
the French minister at Picking, who has
not asked for authority to make repre-
sensations on the subject to the Chinese
government
