PAY OF THE TROOPS.
Paymaster General Dodge Urges New
Rules Regarding Deposit Books.

General Dodge, paymaster general of the
army, in his annual report says that
31, >95l was expended during the year
on account of pay of the army The de-
posts by enlisted men during the year
amounted to sl5s5, GST making the total
deposits to date s24 1896.
"All officers in immediate command of
troops says General Dodge, agree that
the law is of great benefit to the army in
affording soldiers absolutely safe means
of accommodating their savings.
Legislation, however. is recommended, IL
practicable, to the end that soldiers de-
post book shall not be sold, pledged. assign
ed or transferred except after discharge
and when accompanied by the soldiers final
statements; that such pledging, etc, shall
be made a military offense for which the
soldier may be retained in the service for
trial by court-martial and that the possess
sion thereof by any person as security for
a loan to the soldier during the period of
his service shall work a forfeiture of such
deposits. Much complaint has been made
by company commanders of the pernicious
practice of money lenders, especially in San
Francisco, who. ii is believed, not only loan
enlisted men money on the security of their
deposit books. but lie in wait for them
when discharged. and practically confscate
or eXtort a large percentage of what is due
them from the government The evil is q
crying one, and clearly akin to that which
exists in any large seaport, where seamen
are stripped Oh tiieIF naru earnings Dy
boarding-hous runners and touts. If the
deposit book can be made utterly without
value in of such use it will be of
benefit to the service as well as to the
soldier
Legislation is recommended increasing the
allowance to expert rif1emen, Sharpshooters
and marksmen at the rate, respectively, of
Sd, 81 and 81 per month during each year
they qualify. An increase in the allowance
for Communication for quarters is recon-
mended While the revision of the regula-
tons now in progress in some measure
tends to prevent this by more stringent
rules, it is recommended that the law au-
Ihorizing allotments be so amended as to
prohibit allotments except for the benefit of
the soldiers families and dependent rela-

VICTIMS OF WOOD ALCOHOL.
Sixteen Dead in New York Saloon
Mobbed and Later Guarded

dispatch from New York last night
says: When Herman Sachs died tonight in
Roosevelt Hospital, twenty minutes after
he had been admitted, another deat was
added to the long list of deaths which Cor
oner Scholer believes We're caused by the
use of wood alcohol in the whisky sold in
the saloon of Rudolph Fritsche. There are
now sixteen deaths on this list. Sachs was
seized with violent abdominal pains this af-
ternoon Coroner Scholer was notified,
and hurried investigation showed that
the stricken man had been drinking whisky
bought at Fritsche's saloon just before the
police took possession of the place.
Fritsches saloon in 10th avenue which
has been guarded by policeman since it
was closed yesterday afternoon was at
tackled tonight by a mob of a hundred and
fifty residents of the neighborhood They
hurled bricks and stones at it, sunashing in
the door and windows
The federal government has taken a hand
in the investigation of the alleged poisoned
whisky case. Following the arrest of a
saloonkeeper by the local police and visits
to all the saloons in the vicinity for the
purpose of securing samples of the liquor
sold there, all the revenue officers of the
second and third districts began an investi
cation. All the saloons We're again visited,
and more samples of the liquor were taken
for analysis
Coroner Scholer said today that an ex-
animation of the contents of the stomachs
of two Of the persons who died suddenly
under mysterious conditions disclosed
traces of wood alcohol. In addition to the
local police and to federal Authorities, rep
resentatives of several Insurance compa
MES have begun an investigation of the
many recent deaths In this section of the
city.

THE GOVERNMENTS PROGRAM
Secretary Hitchcock's Statement Re-
garding Judge Lacombe's Decision

Yesterday afternoon Secretary Hitchcock
made the following statement in connec
ton with the disposition of the Benson land
frauds case in New York:
The action of Judge Lacembe yester-
day in refusing to grant a rehearing upon
his original decision in the Benson case
does not materially effect the position or in
terests of the government in the California
land fraud cases. After Judge Iacombe
rendered his original decision dlscharging
Benson upon habeas corpus upon the
ground that the facts narrated in the IN
dlctment do not constitute an offense
against the United States, under section
544O of the Revised Statutes of the United
States, the United States district court of
the northern district of California Mr.. John
]. DeHaven presiding, after full argument
upon the question, and with Judge La
combe's opinion before 1t, decided that the
facts referred to by Judge Lacombe and
narrated In the same indictment do consti-
tute an offense against the United States
under that statute, and granted warrant
of removal as against Bensons co-defend-
ants Hyde and Dimond, who had been ar
rested In San Francisco. Immediately there
after the defendants Hyde and Dimond
sued out writ Of habeas corpus before
the circuit court of the ninth circuit of the
United States, Mr.. w. w. Morrow presiding
with the opinions of Judge Lacombe and
Judge DeHaven before it, held that the
facts referred to by Judge LacOmbe and
narrated In the same Indictment do consti-
tute an offense against the United States
under that statute, and refused to discharge
the prisoners, and the defendants, Hyde and
Dimond thereupon perfected an appeal to
the Supreme Court of the United States,
and that appeal is now pending
Judge Lacombe had not yet entered his
order discharging Benson and the govern
ment thereupon concluded to petition for a
rehearing in that case, and Judge La
combe simply declined to grant the rehear-
ing. and adhered to his original opinion with
the suggestion that the best way to settle
the difference of views between himself and
the two United States judges In California
Is to permit the appellate court to determine
the question
1.-The government viii Immediately per-
feet an appeal In the Benson case, and, un-
der the order of Judge Lacombe, Benson
will be held under bail to await the result
of the appeal.
1.-THE appeal in the Hyde-Dimond case will
be pressed to hearing by the government
at the earliest date possible, before the
Supreme Court of the United States, and the
decision of that court will be conclusive in
both cases.
1.-The questions decided in the Benson case
and in the Hyde-Dimond case are not in
yolved in the Oregon land fraud cases, and
these decisions, therefore, have no bearing
whatever upon them"
