ENGLAND SECURES
 MORE TERRITORY
100000 Square Miles to
 Northern Nigeria Added
RESULT OF ENGAGEMENT I
The FuIanis Charged With Fanatcal Bravery and Rushed at the British Over Heaps of Dead and
 Dying Soldiers.

London, May 12.-Colonial Secretary Chamberlain announced in the house of commons today that as result of the British military operations in the Sokito and Kano districts, ending with the capt. ure of the Emir of Kano, 100000 square miles of territory had been added to Northern Nigeria and would be admlnis- tered by the government of that territory Interesting details have been received here of the capture of sokito March II by the British column, commanded by Colo nel Morlam.
 The engagement lasted two and half hours. The British numbered about five hundred men with four quiek-firing guns and four maxims. The enemies horse and footmen were estimated at some 5000 men, their rifiemen being armed with modern rifles and using smokeless pow der The British camped during the night of March 13 one and one-half miles from Sokto, after a hard march of one hun dred miles from Kaura, with but little water and having passed through a diff- cult country At daybreak. March H. the British moved out in. square forma- tion towards the valley In which Sokto lies. Immediately after the British ap- peared over a ridge the Fulanis charged with fanatical bravery, undeterred by a whitening maxim and rifle fire.
 They had no proper leadership but the isolated bands continued to advance over heaps of dead and dying, often only in- dividuals reaching within yard of the square. where, refusing quarter they were shot down while shouting Allah with their last breath The main body of the natives was finally routed, leaving a remnant of -bout thirty chiefs around the emirs great white flag. These chiefs were defiant to the last, and their corpses were found hedging the standard when the British entered the city, which con- sisted mostly of thached houses. Its semi ruined walls extended seven miles around the place and were pierced by eight gates.
 A few days later the populace returned and the Fulanis rendered their submis- sion to Commissioner Lugard, who ar rived March 19 and installed a new emir. The British then retired towards the coast, leaving a garrison of two com panies of infantry.

NO RURAL DELIVERY
 ROUTES FOR AWHILE
PAYNE DISCOVERS THAT HIS DE- APARTMENT WILL HAVE A SERl- GUS DEFICIT AS RESULT OF THE RECENT INVESTIGATION.

Washington, May 12.-Postmaster Gen. eral Payne today announced that there would be no more establishments of rural free delivery postal service until the be- ginning of the next fiscal year. This is one result of the investigation of post office affairs and one of the discovery that at the present rate of increase in the number of routes there would be deficit of $20,000 in the rural free delivery service by the end of the fiscal year. Instructions have been given to Fourth Assistant Postmaster General Bristow to curtail expenditures by discontinuing the daily establishing of routes. and it Is ex- pected that the threatened deficit will be averted. It Is not intended. however, that the investigation of proposed routes shall be suspended, and the field work, therefore, will continue.
 MT. Payne estimated that the total mum. Der of routes fairly entitled to be cstab- lished in the entire country would be 3S,0O0 and that at the present rate of increase this would be reached two years hence Mir Payne said tonight that he had asked the civil service commission to have it's representatives make an investigation O. the Washington postoffice in addition to the investigation already made by post office inspectors. He said this action was taken on account of charges of violations of the civil service law in that office. The civil service men, he said, will make their report tomorrow

POLICE TRACING
 DYNAMITE CASE
MUCH OF THE MYSTERY SUR- ROUNDING THE PLACING OF AN INTERNAL MACHINE ON CUNARD PIER IS CLEARED UP.

New York, May 12-Much of the mys- fernal machine on the pier or the Cunard company was cleared up today, and an arrest may be made at any moment The police have learned that the box was taken to the pier from a boarding house on West Thirty-first street, known as the Currie house, and patronized princi- pally by theatrical folk. The police also box from the house and have a good de- scription of him. Who this man Is, how ever, Inspector McCluskey declines to say. and the proprietress of the estab lishment on being questioned by reporters regarding her boarder would say noth- ing except that he engaged a room about a week ago, and that his effects were still in the house. To the police 1t Is said she has furnished full information.
 When asked the motive for placing the internal machine on the pier Inspector McCluskey contented himself with the mysterious reply, that it was obvious.'' The tracing of the box was brought about by the voluntary statement of Jo- seph Rooner, a Ninth avenue express man, who went to the Cunard pier today accompanied by one of his drivers Peter Bathe, who declared himself to be the driver of the wagon which delivered the box containing the internal machine at the pier. Rooney and Bathe afterwards went to police headquarters and made detailed statement Bathe said that on Thursday afternoon he was accosted on his stand on Ninth avenue by a man who asked him to cart box from the Currie house to the Cunard pier. The man paid him 25 cents and he went to the house, where woman helped him to carry down the box from the second floor He then drove to the pier.
 Inspector McCluskey was satisfied that the men were innocent of any complicity in the plot and dismissed them after get ting a full description of the man who paid Bathe to cart the box. The man Is described as being an American, of medium height. with dark hair tinged with gray, and we'll dressed in light clothing.
 Detectives are keeping a watch on the house tonight, evidently In the ex- pectation that the man may return He has not been seen there since Saturday morning the day on which the box was discovered on the pier.
 One peculiar fact is that no one in the house remembers having seen the box brought in.
