LOOMS ENUMERATED
HERBERT W. BOWEN DISMISSED
FROM HIS POST.
President Roosevelt Approves Secre.
tary Taft's Report on Controversy
and scathingly Arraiens Former
United States Minister to Venezuela

Washington, June 2i.-The dis.
missal of Herbert w. Bowen, for some
years United States minister to Nene
Zuela, and the eXOneration of Assist
ant Secretary of State Francis b. Loo
mis- of the allegations brought against
him by Mr.. Bowen, are the outcome OF
the LOOmis-Bowen controversy, which
has attracted wide attention for many
months past. This disposition of the
case is made by President Roosevelt
in a letter addressed to Secretary
Taft, approving Mr.. Taft's report on
his findings and conclusions in the
case. The president ~scathingly ar.
raigns Minister Bowen, declaring that
his conduct is "cspCCially ~rcprChCnsi.
ble;' that Mr.. Bowen asked one Of
his witnesses to enter the employ of
a certain company for the purpose,
"in plain words, Of stealing" dOCu.
ments which he hoped might inCrim.
mate Mr.. LOOMS and that Mr.. Bowen
has "evidontly for many months, in.
deed for the last two years, devoted
himself" to hunting up scandal and
gossip until it became a monOmania
and caused him "tO show complete dis.
loyalty" to the country he represent
ed. The president says he had hoped
TO promote Mr.. Bowen, as during much
of his service he had done good work.
but that his usefulness in the diplo
matte service is now at an end. The
president adds that he would direct
that Mr.. Bowen's resignation be re
Quested, but for his statement that
he would consider that resignation ar
admission of misconduct and the dis
missal is therefore ordered. The let
ter quotes correspondence and tests
The president states that it appears
that Mr.. Bowen, while minister. Sc
cured the publication Of attacks OF
Mr.. Loomis and furnished to the press
documents pending before the STATE
department for approval and that hi
ronduct is iNeXcusable and shows hi
"entire u%nfitness" for the service
Even if Mr.. LOomis had been guilty
says the president, Mr.. Bowen's cor
UUCl WOulu Dc uupdiuoi"'''' Wv
ter quotes certain correspondence an
testimony. The report of Secretar
Taft on the case, on which the pres
dents action is based, is a voluminou
document, reviewing the charges an
the evidence AIKEN.
In his report Secretary Taft say
that there was nothing dishonorabl
in the transaction in which Mr.. Lo'
mis- figured, but that he was not oil
Greet. This report says that Mr.. Lo'
mis- was not justified in becoming pc
s~onally interested in any OF tn
schemes either with a mere nomin'
interest or substantial interest. +
holds, however, that Mr.. Loomis hs
been most cruelty ~slandered,' cor
mands him for the self restraint vii
which he has met the charges ar
points out that Mr.. Loomis' bitter e
~perience in this case makes 1t unne
essary to point out the moral that
minister cannot afford in the count
TO which he is accredited to make pc
sonal investments, etc.

A lack of money, friends or influence does not

BROPHY'S LICENSES.
Constable Lunny Didn't Get Them
 When He Made Attachment.

. It now transpires that what Consta- ble Lunny attached in John ], Bro phys two saloons some time ago were not his liquor licenses but merely cop ies. and that the attachments in con sequence were of no material value as far as the licenses were concerned. Attorney !. J. O'Neill, counsel for MT Brophy's creditors, has been granted an order to sell the licenses mt the town post on Friday afternoon at . o'clock. But Constable Lunny has n" licenses to sell. He has. however, i'll his possession the papers under which Mir Brophy was doing business and whether they are as good as tbe H. censes is q question. Where Mir Bro phy conducted a saloon on Baldwin street, r. w. Connor is now doing bus. mess. and in his old place on Dublin street MT Brophy is tending bar for Patrick Kennedy. There is good deal of interest manifested In the out come of this matter and 1t would not surprise some attorneys if Attorney !. !. O'Neill brought Mir Brnphy before the court 10 testify regarding the li- censes. NIr O'Neill. however. says hc has the licenses and that they will be sold Friday at the time appointed by the district court.

INTERNAL TROUBLES.
Russian Officers are

Army Officers Refer to Rus- sia's Long Expected War Vessels as The Fright ened Fleet '-St0essel Bit. terly Criticised.

Paris, Feb 1j.-French special cor respondents sent to meet the French steamer Austraien, from Japan via Shanghai, Colombo and Aden having on board General Stuessel and others Of the survivors of Port Arthur, for ward detailed accounts of discord among the Russian officers. The army officers are particularly hostile 10 the fleet. habitually calling it the fright ened heet" Admiral Lockinsky. who was commander of the torpedo de lenses at Port Arthur. is quoted as malin. | bitter criticism of General Stoessel. Admiral AlexieH and others. The Matin quotes Lockinsky as char Gcteriziug Vice-Admiral Stark and Rear Admiral Withoeft as bed chamber ad- ties and seasick whenever afloat.' The admiral added that Vice Admira Skrydloff prudently established himself ashore at Vladivostok notwithstanding his opportunity to break the ineffective blockade of Port Arthur. Lockinsky declared he would denounce Stoessel, Skrydloff and AleXietf before the court martial, as he did not intend to let himself be made a scapegoat like Rear Admiral Ouktomsky, who now trcm- hles with fear in a Chinese hospital Lockinsky cited many instances of the unpreparedness of the land and naval detenses, frequent conflicts of authorl, ty and demoralization during critical engagements.
 Substantially the same account is given by four French newspapers which describe General Stoessel and Admiral Lockinsky as refusing tc speak to or salute each other. The papers say the discord among the off cers foreshadows grave scenes before the court martial.
 The Petit Parisien quotes Genera Stoessel as sarcastically saying: "Rojestensky had better not estat, fish too secure base along the route OF like the naval officers at Port Ar thur it will be impossible to let then venture seaward.'
 The correspondent of the Peti Parlsien adds:
 ! General Stoessel cannot pardon tn
 navy's failure to succor him, while tn
 navy fully returns his hatred" The French special correspondent
 conclude that the fortress fell largel because of the regfettable quarrel
 among the officers.

Raisinger was not officially pronounced dead until ten minutes later When the rope sep arated Constable Funny and others quickly caught the cord and lifted the body clear of the ground. but quick examination by nr Sites showed thai the neck was hroi:an and il was there fore not necessary to raise the body again to the scaffold.
 A shudder ran through those who ing as the rope parted and RaisingeS > body fell to the ground. Nearly every one present tur,ed his head from the gruesone sight.
 Sheriff Dement, said after the hanS. ing that he was unable to account for the snappinc Of the cord as it had been tested with 4 weight more than 10o porr'ds heavier than RaisinCer's body.
