SECRETARY HAY is BETTER.
Is Now in Paris-He Must Take Z
Iona Rest.


Long Rest.
Bad Nauheim.-Se Secretary Hay has
finished the course of baths here and
will meet Mrs. Hay in Paris Pro
fessor Groedel is quite satisfied with
the effects the taking of the baths has
had on Mr.. Hay. but he has advised
him to abstain from all official bust
ness for several months, such a course
being usually necessary after this
course of treatment. Secretary Hay
expects, therefore, to spend the sum-
mer at his country home and to re-
main there until the autumn.
Emperor William invited Mr.. Hay
to come to Wiesbaden and visit him,
but the secretary declined under the
advice of his physician. King Ed
ward also invited Mr. Hay to an audi
ence, but this invitation also was de-
clined.
During his visits to London and
Paris Secretary Hay will remain very
quiet, and will make no formal official
calls. The call of King Leopold of
Belgium upon him Thursday took the
secretary completely by surprise, as
the visit was not announced before
hand.

PAST WEEK OF THE WAR.
Expected Big Land Battle Failed to
Occur.

Contrary to expectations, the en-
gagement Of land forces in Manchuria
did not bring as important results last
week as was expected. 1t was believ-
ed last Sunday that a great battle
was imminent. Field Marshal Oyama,
after a long period of preparations,
was prepared to renew the aggressive
movement that had been suspended
shortly after the battle at Mukden.
General Linevitch, with old troops
rested and many new troops added to
his fighting force, was prepared for
the attack, and the general expecta-
ton was that a conflict similar to that
at Liaoyang and Mukden was at hand.
The developments of the week did
not sustain the predictions. There was
fighting, but no important results
have followed, so far as the outside
world is able to Judge. 1t was re-
ported that Oyama had advanced from
right, left and center. but which
movement was a feint and which was
merely a demonstration could not be
determined The advance of the Jap
anese was promptly met by the Rus
SLAMS and there were several minor
engagements of a more or less san
culinary character. News came that
small detachment of Japanese had
swung around to the Russian rear and
there was a report, afterward denied,
that Vladivostock had been cut of
Rennenkampf, who had been doing
brilliant cavalry service for the Rus
slams, made an expedition around
Oyama's left, but seems to have been
nothing more than a reconnaissance
that resulted in considerable losses.
Saturday it was announced that a
pause seems to have occurred in the
land operations, the idea being, seem
ingly, to suspend the aggressive move
ment until the sea fight had taker
place and there were assurances that
communications between Japan anC
the mainland would not be interrupt
ed. Apparently, the Japanese were
yielding at certain points, but there
was evidently an attempt at a turn
ing movement on the Russian left will
view to shielding Kawamura' effor
to advance on the extreme east ant
cut toward Vladivostock. Both sides
are doubtless ready for a titanic strug
gle. but it is not likely to take place
until the mastery of the sea has beer
decided.

TO PREVENT FORGERY.
What the Washington State Bankers
Association is Doinu.

While 1t is not generally known, the
Washington State Bankers associa-
ton has a special committee of nine
members. whose names are kept Sc
cret so as not to hamper them in their
work. who are trying earnestly to pre-
vent the swindling Of bankers and
others by forged checks, raised checks
and other means.
The work is along somewhat similar
lines to that OF the National Bankers
association. At the recent meeting of
the executive committee at Seattle
the report of the committee was in
formally submitted.
That there is much Of this crime
was shown by the report that during
1904 there were rs convictions secur-
ed in that state of such cases alone,
and this year there may be as many
more.
AS the committee is becoming more
familiar with the work, 1t is securing a
greater proportion of convictions in
the cases brought.
The committee does not appear pub
licly in the matter at all. In every
case where it is learned that a bank or
any bank patron has been swindled
by forged or raised checks or drafts
the committee makes every effort to
secure the arrest of the criminal by
the proper officials, and then gathers
the evidence together, irrespective OF
the expense, and places 1t IN the hands
of the prosecution. Every assistance
is given the officers of the law in the
apprehension and trial of the Grim
inal.
The policy of the association is to
make check raising and forging al
most certainly punished, to the end
that that branch of criminal industry
shall be wiped out in the state.
When such criminals learn that all
the bankers of the state are banded
together to prevent such crimes, or tC
run down and punish the guilty ones
when such forgeries occur, there will
be less attempts to thus defraud the
banks and their patrons.
/ The association has as yet made nc
regular appropriation for the purpose
but all the banks have voluntarily con
tributed to a fund which is expended
for the purposes intended by the spe
cial committee of nine.
