STRIKE BOTHERS RAILROADS,

Omcers Of Both Systems Say That Con.

ST. PAUL, Mimi, Aug. s.-The strike OF
telegraphers on the Northern Pacific and
Great Northern railroads continued to-day,
but the executive officers Of both the sys
TENS affected by the strike declared that
conditions are improving rapidly. The
railroad mon pointed in proof to the fact
that they were accepting shipments OF
perishable freight which we're refused yes
terday.
President Perham OF the telegraphers'
union declares that the roads have not felt
and will not feel the full effects Of the strike
for four or five days. He says the passen-
ger business is crippled on both roads and
that the freight business is practically at
q standsill. President Perham asserts
that stories Of operators returning to work
are false, and that they are being discern
mated by the railroads.
On the Wilmar and Sioux Falls divisions
OF The Great Northern trains are being
operated either by telephone or are running
without orders. General Manager Horn
Of the Northern Pacific at noon asserted
that there were 20 trains blockaded 90 the

CHINESE HELD UP FOR FEES.
Natives Guilty Of II and Not Omcers OF
the Marine Hospital Service in China.

Natives Guilty Of II and Not Omcers OF
the Marine Hospital Service in China.
WASHINGTON, Aug. s.-Ohloial oonfrma-
ton was given to-day to the reports that
charges involving officers Of the Marine
Hospital Service on duty in China had
been made to the Secretary Of the Treasury.
At the same time it was explained that an
investigation, just completed, cleared the
accused men Of any wrongdoing. Super
vising Surgeon-General Wyman OF the
Marine Hospital Service has received a
report on the subject from W. j. White,
Passed Assistant Surgeon, stationed at
Hong Kong.
DR.. White advises the Department that
he has looked into the matter and secured
a great deal Of evidence. but that none OF
1t taints the record Of any hospital surgeon
in the service OF the United States. He
reports that Chinese immigrants are held up
for fees. ran ging from SIS to SIPS, but that
natives are responsible for the holdups.
and that in prosecuting their Illicit traffic
thew have used the names Of the American
surgeons.
One specific case OF alleged holdup was
run down by DR.. White. John P. Irish
the customs naval officer on duty at San
Francisco, informed the Department that
q Chinaman formerly in his employ as
q cook had written him that the American
doctors" would not let him return to this
country unless he paid them 500. DR..
White sought this particular individual,
and when confronted he denied that he
had made such charge.
1t appears from DR.. Whites report that
firm OF Chinese with agencies at Hongkong
and other places in the empire from which
emiRrants embark sell certificates to
Chinese with the guaranty that they will
be landed without trouble on arrival in the
United States. One Of these certificates
was recently forwarded to Washington.
When translated II was found to be . receipt
for the payment Of $50 on the part Of Lee
Wing, the statement being made that the
money had been received for the -Ameri-
can doctors" 1t is believed at the De-
partment that the surgeons OF the Marine
Hospital Service have been confused with
an American physician practising in Hong.
kong who has treated large number CT
Chinese for trachoma and other diseases.
1t was reported that John W. Wilkie,
chief of the Secret Service, has been sent to
China to inquire into the charges against
the marine hospital surgeons. Chief WilkIe
said that he had looked into the matter
while in China. but that he had not been
sent there for that purpose.

WASHINGTON, Aug. s.-Secretary Of the
Treasury Shaw will stand by the Marine
Hospital Service surgeons In their clash
with Gov. Blanchard OF Louisiana In con-
nection with The yellow fever epidemic

ground that the act OF Congress approved

thority on the representatives OF the
Federal Government In cases like the present

GERMANY WANTS RECIPROCITY.
Negotiations Put or Until the Senate
Shows . Disposition to RatlTy Treaty.

Shows Disp0sitien to RetlHy Treaty.
WARRINGTON, Aug. s.-The negotiations
between Germany and the United STATES
for reciprocity treaty are at a standstill,
and unless the outlook changes consider
ably 1t Is probable that on March next,
whom the new German tariff laws 60 into
effect, the manufacturers Of this country
viii begin to suffer. Germany is worry
anxious for treaty with the United States,
and through its Ambassador here, Baron
Spock Won Sternburg. has so intimAtsd
many times. Germany wants a treaty
drawn up under Section Nv. OF the Dinghy
act. but time limitation OF the clause ex-
pired five years ago, and the State Depart
ment cannot proceed under 1t.
The Department has informed Germany,
however. that q general reciprocity treaty
drawn under tho treaty-making powers
Of The President might be negotiated. but
at the Same time the Department points
out the futility Of presenting treaty to
tho Senate for ratification. Unless the
Senate displays different attitude on th4
subject Of reciprocity treaties 1t is not
likely that the State Department will make
any effort to negotiate a treaty with Ger
many. There are nearly dozen treaties
before tho Senate now awaiting action,
and tllsir chances Of ratification are re-
garded az hopeless. Naturally the State
Department has no desire to add to this
list.
While 1t Is said at the State Department
that nothing is being done at present on Q
treaty, 1t is quite certain that a good deal
has already been accomplished, and II the
favorable moment arrives for presenting .
treaty for ratification there Is no doubt
that 1t can be quickly negotiated. A
prominent Government officer said to-day
that Il the proper time ever came a treaty
could be negotiated within three weeks.
This would indicate that much Of the Pre-
liminary work has already been done.
