Fairbanks in Indiana.

From Michigan City to Lafayette, Senator
Fairbanks special train yesterday stopped
at thirteen different points. In his first
speech of the day at Michigan City the
Senator referred pointedly to the charges
against Chairman CorteIyou, contained in
the recent speeches of Judge Parker. All of
the Senator's addresses were warmly ap-
plauded. At Logansport Secretary Shaw
Joined the party, and afterward Senator
Fairbanks addressed the evening meeting
at Lafayette. In the course of his address
Senator Fairbanks said.
The democratic party in all its past has

ATKINSON ANSWERS CRITICISMS.
Reiterates That His Figures Are True
Blames Officials,

Edward Atkinson gave out a statement
in Boston yesterday in which he says:
"Since Judge Parker cited accounts COM
piled by me as worthy of credence, which
have since been pronounced incorrect. and
since / have been charged by cabinet
officer with compiling them for the pur-
pose of misleading the public it is fit for
me now to submit absolute proofs that
this charge is false and that the figures
which Judge Parker cited are true and
that they are symbols of facts" Refer
ring to his compilation of statistics, he
says:
1T is not an absolutely true account,
because the present system of bookkeep-
ing is out of date and should be reformed.
Large expenditures for public buildings
that have no connection with the mill
tary service are listed under that title;
the cost of the lighthouse service, and, 1
believe, of the fish commission, are listed
under the head of naval service.
Secretary Shaw was In error when ne
said that l had included 5000, 000, 900 ex-
pended for the Panama purchase and for
postal service. He did not comprehend
the official reports made in his own name
in his last treasury report for 1903 His
assertion. If made. had no foundation In
fact; it is not true.
Secretary Taft is reported to have said
that the cost of eighteen battle ships not
yet ordered was included by me. This as
sertion, if made, had no foundation in
fact; it is not true.
Secretary Hay is reported to have said
that If the future expenditures should be
again reduced to the normal rate of So
per head, less the reduction of the inter-
est and pension charge of over so cents
per head, or to the normal rate of $3.50
per head as proposed by Judge Parker,
not in detail, but in fact, it would be
necessary to nearly disband the army and
to lay up the naval vessels in the dock
yards. Such statement if made. has
no foundation in fact: it is not true

Heavy Fog on River.

Another thick and heavy fog covered the
river about the city and for many miles
down the Potomac this morning from be-
fore daylight until almost the middle of the
day. Above Alexandria the fog is said to
have been so thick that objects but few
feet away could hardly be discerned
through the blanket of mist. While the
fog did not cause any of the steamers to
lay up, 1t made them move with extreme
caution to avoid accident. The fogs which
occur almost every morning are giving the
rivermen much trouble.

FACTS ABOUT JEWS IN INDIA.

The Blue Book, on India, for 1904, is
sued by the home government, in Lon
don, shows that there are to-day 1925
Jews in England's Indian possessions.
Since the census of 1881, therefore, the
increase of the Jewish population in In
dia has been only 1,O34. The Blue Book
gives much interesting information In
Cochin, the history by the Jews dates
back to the ninth century. In Kolaba, in
the Province of Bombay, there are two
branches of the Jewish people, the white
and the black. The black Jews, it is
claimed, are descendants of mixed mar
riages Of white Jews and natives The
whites will not associate with the blacks,
nor marry them, considering them of
much lower caste. This much is certain,

There are in the city Of Poltava 1876
Jewish families whose supporters are
now fighting in the armies Of the Gar
in the far East. Most of these families
live in utter destitution. The munich
pality pays 2 roubles month to each
family toward house rental and the coun-
ty pays not more than roubles to each
family monthly. The Jewish societies.
realizing that it is impossible for any
family to live on such sum, decided to
add to the support of each family 5
roubles per month. To defray the ex-'
penses that will be incurred by this addi-
ton, it was further decided to increase
the price for the ritual slaughtering of
fowls by one kopeke.
The poverty and distress caused by
the war among the Jews of Russia is in
describable. The newspapers are full of
incidents of horror and wretchedness
that exist among the dwellers of the Pale.
The result Of the imperial ambitions is
mostly felt by the poor and detected
classes of the Jews.
