Germany is Contented..

The Foreign Office, replying to an
inquiry of the Associated Press as to
whether the report that Great Britain
and Germany were pressing Sanso Do
mingo for a settlement Of the claims
of British and German subjects, said
the German government was satisfied
to leave Santo Domingo and her OBJ
legations to foreigners entirely in the
hands Of the United States, and that,
consequently, Germany was not press
ing Santo Domingo for the payment of
debts due to Germany.
The protests of the Belgian govern
ment and of the French and Belgian
bondholders of Santo Domingo are
said to be due to Santo Domingo S non
observance of the agreement con-
cluded with the bondholders June 8
1901, to pay towards the service of the
public debt $4,000 monthly in the
customs receipts Of She port Of Santo
Domingo.
The largest Of the foreign debts of
Santo Domingo is that represented by
the bonds of the new unified loan of
1897 held in Europe, principally in
France and Belgium, consisting Of two
issues bearing, respectively, 2, 3-4 per
cent and 4 per cent interest and
amounting to about $21 ,250,0O0. Both
n
toms, duties and specially assigned
revenues. Default in the payment of
interest was made April /, 1899, since
which time several arrangements have
been attempted to provide for the in
terest payments. Belgians hold about
1000, 900 of Dominican demands.

The United States government,
through the Surgeon General of the
Public Health and Marine Hospital
Service, is to make a study of the
transmission, cause and treatment of
leprosy. These Investigations will be
conducted in Hawaii as soon as the
territorial government Of that terri
tory shall cede to the United States a
suitable tract of land, at least one mile
square on the leper reservation at
Molokai. At the last session Of con-
gress an appropriation Of 100000
was male for the purpose of erecting
upon the proposed reservation a hos
pital station and laboratory to be used
as leprosarium. The institution is
to be under the direction of the Sur
geon General Of the Public Health and
Marine Hospital Service, who is au-
thorized under the Federal act to re-
ceiye at such station patients afflicted
with leprosy as may be committed to
his care under legal authorization of
the territory. Not more than forty of
these patients are to be under treat
ment at any one time, these patients
to remain under the Jurisdiction OF
the Surgeon General until returned
to the proper authorities at Hawaii.

At the headquarters of the commits
sion here, there is doubt as to what
shall be done after reorganization. 1t
has been stated that the work Of the
commission will be performed in Pan
anna and not here, but there will still
be the necessity for materials con-
tracted for in the United States, and
competent officials must attend to this
business. Some Of Major Harrod S
friends are complaining that he will
be left without a position, which
seems to be somewhat unfair. The
president took him from the Missis-
sippi River Commission, they say,
where his duties were agreeable and
continuous, and he should find some
other employment for him, as he did
for Mr.. Wynne and Mr.. Bristow.

rived mainly from the new hotels and other
large buildings completed last year and
from the greater values OF property along
tho line Of the subway.

have had a stan of more than fifty men at
work sending out notices to persons as
sessed on personal property. More than
100 900 such notices have been mailed.

swear of will be expedited by reason of
the addition, under the act passed last

partment.
