THE DOMINICAN TREAn
Nothing Was to Be Done Without the
 Senate'S Consent.

Washington, March 9.-The secreta- ny of state in conversing with press representative today made a state ment as to the facts regarding the ne gotiations with Santo Domingo. He denied that the department of state had known of the existence of the agreement of January 21. prior to its announcement in the public press that such an instrument had been signed at Santo Domingo City. This agree ment was signed at that time for the purpose of meeting the requirements of certain political conditions at San to Domingo. to avert further disorders and bloodshed.
 The action of our representative in this respect was approved. No purpose of putting either the agreement of Jan. 21 or the proctocol now before the sen ate into practical operation without submitting it to the senate for approv- al was ever entertained, considered or discussed.

Indefinite Reports From
 the MdnChurian War
THE RUSSIANS BEATEN
But It Is Yet Uncertain Whether the Defeat May Be Called a Disaster. The Desperation and Doegedness With Which the Fight Goes On.

Mukden at noon yesterday was still occupied by the Russians. Flu pass, twelve miles to the eastward and on the Hun river. a vital point for Gener- al kuroDatkin in the retreat of his eastern wing, was bombarded by the Japanese for an hour early in the day. the Russian artillery replying vigor Ously. The outcome at this point seems to be in doubt. A windstorm of hur- ricane fury was in progress during the day.
 No reports from the commander-in- chief later than Wednesday have been given out at St. Petersburg. Associat- ed Press dispatches from Mukden in dicate that considerable Japanese forces are well north of the city of Mukden and that the railway upon which de- pends so much for t,,e Russian army is seriously threatened, if indeed it has not already been cut.

A STANDARD AGREEMENT
Disclosed by a Former Employe of
 the Company.

Topeka, Kan, March 9.-fn the hearing of the rebate suit against the Santa Fe former Attorney General Monett of Ohio introduced a letter purporting to come from former em- ploye of the Standard Oil company at Joplin, Mo. The missive alleges that upon the completion of the Standard Oil company's pipe lines an agreement was entered into between the Standard and the Santa Fe the Missouri Pacific, the NJ. K. & T. railway and possibly others, whereby the tariff for the transportation oil over these railroad lines should be placed at an exorbitant and prohibitive figure.
 The railways are to profit from this transaction through the distribution among the railways of ten cents on every barrel of oil run through the Standards pipe line. This made it inn possible for independent company's to ship oil and had the effect of elimina- ting competition with the Standard oil company. The theory is that the Standard made the producer stand this expense by reducing the price of crude petroleum by a corresponding amount.

THE COMMERCIAL WORLD
Revival Of Speculative Enthusiasm
 in the Stock Market.

New York. March 9.-There was distinct revival in speculative enthusi- asm in stocks today and a considerable expansion in the volume of the market was an accompaniment. The most eff fective factor in sentiment was an awakened strength in a group of rail- road stocks, which have figured in the most industriously circulated of rum ors in regard to combinations and mer- gers. The entire quiescence of this group ever since the announcement of the Northern Securities decision had dampening effect upon the speculative spirit as plans concerning these prop critics were supposed to be waiting for that decision to be promulgated. There was no authoritative news regarding the plans today but the demand for the stock rescued the market from one of the oppressive influences due to their lethargy.

DREADFUL INDIAN PLAGUE
The Number of Deaths in a Single
 Week 34,OOO.

Calcutta, March 9-Deaths from the plague last week numbered 94,O0O. Statistics show that deaths from the bubonic plague in India within a few years has reached nearly 3,000,000. In 1900 the mortality in India from the plague alone was S5O.OOO. The number of deaths recorded last week is not un- precedented.
 The infection recently spread to Burmah where it is making rapid strides. This season of the year al- ways favors it's spread. The Indian government is making every effort to eradicate it, destroying by burning whole sections of towns and segregat- ing the inhabitants. But owing to the climate and sanitary conditions in the outlying districts and native sections of the towns it is difficult to cope with an epidemic which breaks out contin- ually at fresh points. The deaths are said to be ninety per cent of those in fected. As a result of the plague, the labor supply for manufacturing cen ters is seriously depreciated.

Populated by the National
 Labor Leaders
THE LOCALS Al FAULT
The Hen Must Return to Work or Be Expelled Says Grand Chief Stone of the Brotherhood of Locomotive En- gineerS.

New York, March 9.-The most in teresting development in the subway and elevated railway strike in New York was the stand taken by some of the national labor leaders in repudiat- ing the action of the local leaders who ordered and are conducting the strike. The first intimatiOn the public had that the strike was not endorsed by the na- tional unions came in a statement from Grand Chief Warren Stone of the Bro therhood of Locomotive Engineers to which the motOrmen belonged. MT. Stone insisted that the strike was violation of the laws of the national union, the men having broken their contract with the Interborough com pany. He ordered the men to report for duty, failing which expulsion from the organization is threatened
 Following is the statement of Grand Chief Stone of the Brotherhood of Lo~ comOtive Engineers: "The Brother hood of Locomotive Engineers has no differences between it's organization and the Interborough company at the present time that could not be adjust ed in a proper manner.
 ''The present strike now going on by men claiming to represent the Broth erhood of Locomotive Engineers is in direct violation of our laws It is not recognized nor will it be supported by ed into in September. 1904, between

NO DUAL GOVERNMENT
Though Lord ROsebery FavOrs Irish
 Reforms.

London, March 9.-The question of home rule for Ireland was the principal feature of a speech made by Lord Rosebery before the City of London Liberal club tonight His lordship said that while the liberal party sym pathized with Ireland and was willing to proceed along lines of reform there is one thing to which no wise states man ever will expose the country, namely, the curse of dual government. "We have sufficient warning" said he. 'in the examples of Norway and Sweden, Austria and Hungary to avoid the peril ofh aving a vulture gnawing at our very vitals"
 Lord Rosebery said that after the British ships had been ordered from Port Arthur by Russia and sent to Venezuela at the behest of Germany. the Britons had little further humili- ation to expect at the hands of the lib- eral government. If the liberal gov ernment were called upon to renew the Anglo-Japanese alliance he had little doubt that it would gladly sign it.

With every fresh fianking movement the iron band closes nearer the railroad and under this menace the first and third armies were forced last night to abandon mighty fortifications on the Shakhe river, give up the inn pregnable Poutiloff hill and retire to the line of the Hun river Today the Japanese are pushing their columns north and northeast bombarding the villages which are keys of defense and hurling men, some of them veter- ans of a year of campaign and others middle aged reserves, fresh from Japan. against Russian positions. Often they are repulsed and sometimes they mas ter the advanced line, but at an enor- nous cost.
 Individuals and small parties have reached the railroad, cut the telegraph wires and dislodged a few trains but the damages were quickly repaired and the perpetrators usually killed or wounded.

Shorts and commission houses were active buyers of May Small receipts in the northwest had considerable influence on initial trad ing. Shortly after the opening the buying orders suddenly dwindled and q severe break in prices occurred. May dropped to SLIPS while July sold off to 93ss. On the theory that the new crop may yet be seriously damaged by frosts, commission houses turned ac- tive buyers, causing a quick rally to 94b cents. Final quotations on May were $1.13B @114.

Russian Military Activity

AGAINST AFGHANSTAN
Is the Russian Explanation but It Is a Significant Fact That Enslishnsn Are not Permitted to Penetrate Into the Region of Operations.

St. Petersburg. March g. 11.55 P. m- Russia is steadily reinforcing her military strength both in men and guns in the direction of the Indian frontier

TEN AWFUL DAYS.
The Result Depends at Last on Human
 Endurance.

Mukden, March 9, a. m.-Midnight closed the tenth day of the struggle for the possession of Mukden and the mas tery of a great empire. the tenth day of unceasing conflict under exploding shrapnel, the roar of cannon and the whistling of bullets. the tenth day without sleep and without food. The combat is fast reaching the point where it is a question not so much of turn ing columns, tactics and strategy as. whose strength, energy and cartridges will last the longest.
 Gray coated Russians, patient, un- complaining. strong of soul, chung dog gedly to positions against an enemy whose attacks go to the very point of insanity and desperation. For forty eight hours the Japanese have not eat en. They are starving and exhausted, but Field Marshal Oyama himself has told them that the city will fall and the slaughter stop on Friday and their confidence in their leader increased their strength tenfold.
 On Wednesday when the Russians took Ushuntun, a few dozen Japanese clung to the thick walled temple and refused all overtures of surrender. Cannon were brought up and preached the walls but the courage of the de- lenders continued under fire and finally when defense was hopeless they blew themselves s6ywards with the ruins of the temple. One survivor rather than surrender threw himself into a stone well and perished. And yet rank and file and inferior leaders, stern in their sense of duty, are as unsparfng of themselves as of the men whom they

the InterbOrough company and the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, we recognize to be as binding today as it was when signed. and loyal mem bers of the Brotherhood of Locomo- tive Engineers are instructed and au thorized 10 report for duty and comply with tke terms of the agreement. Mem bers refusing to GO so will be expelled from membership in our organization.
 It has been reported to me that many of our members have been misled in the statement that the grand off, cers had given consent to this strike. This is not correct. No request was made nor granted, nor were the officers of the Brotherhood of Locomotive En- gineers consulted in the present situa- ton. This is the first time in the his tory of the brotherhood that our mem bers have repudiated their agreement with any railroad.
 Labor organizations must keep their agreements inviolable if they expect to succeed. Had our laws been compiled with conditions as they now appear could not exist on tie lines of the In- terborOugh company"
 w. D. Mahon. president of the Amalgamated Association of Street and Electric railway employees and 1Iilotlly I1tsll6y, pIeSlucll Ol lile 4ii- ternational Brotherhood of Bremen and Stationary Bremen also issued statements of 2 similar tenor.
 William C. Jencks, head of the local Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, declared that he did not recognize Stones statement as having any influ- ence upon him or upon the strike
 "Stone connot dictate to me-" said Jencks. Shall he tell whether we shall have supper or not? The men were ordered out and will stay out un- til the strike. is won. Things are going beautifully and the prospects were nev- CT brighter for us since the strike was begun" Jenc1s made this statement in the midst of a group of strikers who cheered him loudly when they heard his words.
 Harry Johnson, secretary of the local union Of Locomotive Engineers, in an interview, supported Jencks, saying the men would not go back to work until they had won their point, the To- cal union having sufficient money to carry on the strike without aid from the national union. So far, he said. none Of the strikers had deserted, while dozens of the strike breakers had quit
