The reports of the abandonment of Port
Arthur continue to arouse the bitterest re-

marks:
Let other countries be fed on such tales,

disturbed by such falsehoods. The official
kilograms are believed and trusted by
every one"
The government is building some armored
trains, for use on the Manchurian railroad
after the model of those used by the Brit
fish in South Africa. They will not be en-
ployed so much on account of fear that the
Japanese may cut the road as for their
moral effect on the Chinese robber bands,
who may become emboldened by the war.

Officials Confer Regarding Payments
on Mail Routes

Officials of The Treasury and Post Office
Departments have had conference on the
question whether or not contractors on

mail messengers may not be paid monthly
instead of quarterly. An investigation of
the question disclosed the fact that the
vouchers of these employees of the Post Of

different hands before the employees receive
their compensation. 1t is the idea of the
officials that this matter could be greatly
simplified, and as the compensation of
many Of these employees is small the delay
in payment sometimes results in hardship
