MORE MONEY NEEDED.
Rear Admiral Harris Makes Reconr
 mendations for Supplies.

Washington, November S.-Urgeni recommendation is made by Rear Ad. miral H. r. Harris in his first annual re- port as paymaster general of the navy for an increase in the naval supply fund to enable the bureau of supplies and ac- counts to respond promptly to the num- erous emergency calls which it received from the navy. The present fund of s. 700,0 000 the paymaster general declares, is totally inadequate to fulhll the purpose for which it was authorized, and he recommends that it be increased to S4. 000000. To further augment the fund he asks that the proceeds of all condemned and obsolete supplies, with a few excep- tions be carired to it's credit
 To relieve the stringency of officers in the pay corps, Rear Admiral Harris recommends that the vacancies existing in the grade of assistant paymaster be filled at once. Only young men of good standing and education should be select ed for these positions, and 1 cannot too strongly urge that bushes experience should also be prerequisite to appoint ment"

PRIVATE HOLDINGS
 SHOULD BE BOUGHT
CAPT. YOUNG MAKES RECOMMEND DATIONS CONCERNING NATION AL ARkS IN CALIFORNIA. STARVATION THREATENS GAME

Washington, November S.-In his an- ing superintendent of Sequoia and Gen. eral Grant national parks of California, in which many giant trees are located, urges the acquisition by the government of the land in the parks which is owned by private individuals. In Sequoia park there are many large tracts thus owned and after waiting in vain for years for the government to purchase their prop erty. the owners are beginning to sell off the large timber.
 Many of them are tired of waiting" he says. "and where these big trees grew close to the county road the owners have gut them by the wholesale and put the lumber on the market so that where once was a fine forest of these magnif- cent giants, there is now nothing but devastation and ruin in the shape of stumps and sawdust piles on either side of the highroad. It is but just to the owners and for the best interest of the patented lands within the park limits be authorized by congress, if the parks are to be continued"
 He says the land can be secured for reasonable price. Captain l oung says game is increasing.
 Major John Pitchers report on Yellow stone park is devoted largely to the con- dition of the game in that preserve. He recommends that provision be made for feeding game in the park in the winter. The danger of loss by starving. he says, is increasing yearly owing to the fact that the country around the park is settling up. thus limiting the range. He thinks it would not be a difficult matter to feed the antelope and sheep, as their winter range is close to Fort Yellow stone. He places the number of ante- lnne in the park at about 1n0O

TOXIC WAITING.
Reply fror1 Russia Is Expected at Any
 Moment

Yokohama, November S.-It is said in official circles at Tokio that the rumor that negotiations between the Russian and Japanese governments had come to the verge of final settlement is mis- leading, but that Tokio is now awaiting Russia s&reply, which is due at any mo- ment, but which will only advance the question in the far eastern difficulty to another stage.
 The reports of the resignation of Vice. roy Alexieff. his change of headquarters from Port Arthur to Vladivostock and the dismantling of the fort at Yongam- pho, are all believed to indicate a tenn porary weakening of the Russian war party, but those incidents will also fur ther delay final settlement.
 The new tonnage dues promulgated by Viceroy Alexieff provides that non-Rus- sians must pay twelve times the dues charged to Russian vessels.
