RTLES NOR hGGO PBIZES
Carnegie Commission Will Make No
Awards Until Jan. I8, 1905.
. cAaEs uMoEa CONSIDERATION

Heroic Acts VIII ee Investigated ee-
fore the Awards Are Made - The
Medal Of Honor to Be Of Bronze Or
Silver.
Pittsburg, Pa. Oct 2o.-At a meeting
Of the Carnegie hero fund commission
II was decided that no awards OF
medals or benefits will be made by the
Carnegie hero fund commission before
the next meeting of the commission,
which has been fixed for January is,
1905. At that time the executive COM
mittee Of the organization is expected
to report upon the SO cases now under
consideration, and medals and benefits
will probably be awarded at the coming
meeting Tho report of the Organiza-
ton committee. Thomas Lynch, chair
man. follows:
THE scope Of the fund shall be con-
fined within the following limitations.
First--To acts on which conclusive evil
dence may be obtained showing that
the person performihs me ACT yolan-
tarily risked his own life in saving or
attempting to save the life of a fellow
being. or who voluntarily has sacrificed
himself in an heroic manner for the
benefit Of others.
Second Such acts must have been
performed by persons the nature Of
whose duties in following their regular
vocation does not necessarily require
them IN nerfOrm such acts.
Third Such acts must have been
performed I'm the United States of
America. the Dominion Of Canada, the
colony of New Foundland and the wa
ters thereof
"Fourth-Such acts must have been
performed on or after April 15, 1904
Fifth Heroic acts may be brought
to the attention of the commission by
direct application or through the pub
Tic press" -
The report ofthe financial commit
tee submitted by John B. Jackson,
chairmapS showed that the s5,OOO,OOO
worthTof gold per cent interest bear
ing first mortgage bonds Of the United
States Steel Corporation were regis
/ tered in the name OF the commission
May 10 last. About $4,000 interest has
already accrued on these bonds.
The medal Of honor to be selected by
the commission will .Vobably be of
bronze or silver It is not the desire of
the commission to have gold medals
on account of their intrinsic value 1t
is argued that the medal is a symbol
to commemorate the deed and if II is
OF small value it Will be priced all the
more by the recipient.
Seven cases have been investigated
by the officers of the commission, and
80 additional ones are now under inves-
tigation. OF the seven cases investi-
gated, one has been found which will
not come under the scope of the fund
One of the remaining six the eXecu
tive committee will likely recommend
for medal and probably the other five.
II has been decided that representa-
tives Of the commission will visit thi
places where all the acts of ALLEGED
heroism have been performed anC
make reports of their findings before
any award shall be made by the com
mission.

JAPAN Will PROTEST
Russian soldiero Disguised AS Chinese
Attacked Oyama's Forces.

Attacked Oyama's Forces.
Toxic, Oct 20.-The Japanese gov
ornment has decided to draw the atten-
tion of the Russian government to the
unlawful action of Russian troops in
using Chinese costumes. The notice
will be served through the American
state department, which will transmit
IL through the American embassy at
St. Petersburg.
A memorandum issued by the foreign
Office says that on October 4 a body of
infantry belonging to the Russian
third regiment of sharp shooters, wear
ing Chinese costumes, attacked the
japanese forces on the Mukden road,
and that Russians similarly clad ap-
preached the Japanese lines and at
tempted surprises Different reports re-
coived. it is charged. indicate that the
Russians are purchasing enormous
quantities of Chinese costumes.
The memorandum points out that
combatants not properly uniformed are
liable to punishment as offenders
against the laws of war, and that par
ticipation in fighting without uniform
is q violation OF international usage,
an unlawful act and contrary to the
meaning of article % of the supple
mentary rules Of the convention gov
erning the laws and customs Of war on
land.
II Is pointed out further that this
action Of Russian troops will prove a
source Of great calamity to innocent
Chinese, who win thereby be exposed
TO danger owing to their inability from
distances TO distinguish tho Russian
soldiers from real Chinese.
