Washington, Sept. 13.-General Henry
G. Corbin, commanding the army in
took a decided stand against young
army officers marrying unless they had
incomes other than their salaries, has
now preached a little sermon to his
enlisted men on the virtue of frugality.
It is contained in an order issued to his
men and which has just reached Wash
ington. Commenting on the deplorable
fact that most of the men who have
served out their terms Of enlistment find
themselves without funds, he says:
EThis is a lesson that should not be
lost sight Of by those remaining in the
service.
every employee should resolve and
make good the resolution from this time
on, to deposit at the end of each month,
at least 10 per cent Of his pay with a
savings bank. Had the men now dis
charged and in want saved one-half of
one per cent they would have much
more than enough to take them to their
homes, or, better yet, perhaps, to allow
them to live here in comfort until other
employment could be obtained.

he ended his wretched life was in a

eight miles from the nearest farmhouse
and in a locality which had never be-

New York, Sept. 13.-The dissolution
yesterday Of the flour pool of the Kan

existence for several months, accord
ing to all reports, is considered a great
victory from the export standpoint by
the Millers' National Federation. Sec
rotary A. L. Goetzmann is now in this
city and says that from present indica-
lions it is certain that flour millers are
going to make a hard fight this season
for profitable export business.
Millegs brought the Kansas City stu
alton to the attention of the Interstate
commerce commission, as a violation Of
the Elkins law and the Sherman anti
trust act, n the railroads decided to
investigation, so it was said here.
On account Of the poor wheat crop

any. export business of moment, and I'M
der the present favorable conditions
naturally they are looking for large
business this year, an dpropose to exer-
else all powers at their command to that
end. .

it is the danger that the American
railroads will give a lower rate to wheat
than to flower, and thereby enable for

price than can overcome American COM

Imposed on Him.

in truth the report of an interview
with him regarding the terms of peace
between Russia and Japan published
today in the Petit Parisien of Paris,
and cabled to America and published
here this morning.

the following telegram:

Inc president directs me to say to you
that the alleged interview with him, pub
lished in this mornings paper is not only
an absolute fabrication wholly without
basis OF truth. but that your conduct
IN obtaining permission to see him under
false pretenses is thoroly dishonorable.
When you came to see the president,
you informed him tha you were the
grandson of Marshal Augereau; that you
a been at the battle of Mukden with
the Russian army and with the Japanese
army afterwards: and that you understoon
thoroly that o could have no interview
of any kind and hat you simply wished
to pay a respect to him.
Under these circumstances the president
received you and listened to your account
of your experiences with the japanese and
Russians and spoke to you also of the
deeds of Marshal Augereau and of other
generals.
- arH 7- -h
The president had no conversation with
you about the terms of peace and your
account of you alleged interview with
him is a fabrication from beginning to end
without any foundation in fact; and both
your untruthfulness and your obtaining
permission to see him under false pre-
lenses the president considers highly dis
honorable. -
