TOKYO, Friday. September /, pm (de-

settlement. The radicals and hot-heads
continue to urge various expedents to Cx-

creased. The police are carefully watching
the developments of the situation, and the
force will be doubled should any violence
occur. If it does its speedy suppression is
assured.
The government continues silent. The
conservative element predict that the coun-

REFRIGERATOR CAR CHARGES.
Statements Of Railways to the Inter
state Commission.

The Armour Car Lines Company has been
granted by the interstate commerce COM
mission an extension until September 10 in
which to file its answer to the inquiry con-
corning relations between refrigerator lines
and railroads. Several railroads have been
granted extensions ranging up to September

originally expired yesterday, and the replies
which came in were made public today.
The Southern railway, the Atlantic Coast
Line. the Central of Georgia, the Atchison,
Topeka and Santa Fe and the Pennsylvania
have filed their answers. All except the two
last mentioned declare that they are in no
way responsible for the charges made by
the Armour car lines. and although they do
not publish refrigeration charges they state
expressly that their tariff rates do not in
clude refrigeration. The Atchison, Topeka
and Santa Fe makes the same disclaimer
concerning its business relations with the
Santa Fe Refrigerator Dispatch. The Penn

ground that none of the business mentioned
In the inquiry originates on it's lines, and
AYERS further that 1t does not publish re-
frigeration charges for the reason that 1t is

Notwithstanding that the fever is now in

there is not a single one from the original

are hundreds of non-immunes in the dis
trct. Superhuman work in the matter of
disinfection and the eradication of mos
qutoes has been done in this section, and
while the infection has not been entirely
wiped out a days freedom from new cases
indicates that the disease has been shorn of
much of its power.

Russian Cruiser Lena to Sail From
Port Saturday.

VALLEJO, Cal, September 8.-The Rus
sian cruiser Lena which has been interned
at the Mare Island navy yard for nearly
year, will leave for San Francisco next Sat-
urday, where she will go into the dry dock.
Permission has been received and orders are
now awaited for the Lena to depart for
Vladivostok and It is expected that she will
sail for that port about September 20
About three months ago. after confer
ence between State Department and Navy
Department officials, permission was grant
ed to the interned Russian ship Lena to go

States respecting the interned ships of the

tho time Of the arrival OF Admiral Bnquist's
squadron at Manila the policy was laid
down that time could not be given for the
repair OF injuries received in battle and that
IN as much as the injuries TO the Russian
ships did not appear to have been caused
BY storm or sea the Russian commander
was required TO put to sea at once or have
his vessels lnterued
In the case of the Lena her injuries had
not been inflicted in battle. Certain repairs
TO her boilers were necessary in order to
make her seaworthy. Acting upon the
quest OF the commander OF the Lena, who
asked permission to make needful repairs
after disarmament the Lena was interned.
Thus a distinction is pointed out between
the status of the Lena and the ships at
Manila, which had put into that port after
conflict with the enemy.
The Navy Department awaits an official
notification from the State Department of
the conclusion OF peace between the two
warning nations together with the condi-
tions so far as intcrned warships are con-
cerned, before sending instructions to the
naval commanders who have been charged
with the custody OF hostile ships which
have been detained in American ports. Upon
receipt of information from the State De-
partment It Is expected that the Navy De-
partment will promptly inform Admiral
Train at Manila and Admiral McCalla at
Mare Island that peace has been concluded
and that the interned Russian ships are free
to depart.

FRANCE EXPECTED TO ACT.
Crisis Apparently Reached in the Con-
troversy With Venezuela

Mr. Russell, the American minister at
Caracas, cabled the State Department to-
day as follows:
The Venezuelan government has closed
the French cable at Caracas and other
points Obliged to use land wires from Car
acas to La Guira. and government collects
20 cents per word for this service Ia dis
tance Of twelve miles,"
There Is some expectation at the State
Department that t>as matters have reached
a crisis so far as the French Cable Com
pany is concerned. some drastic action may
be taken by the French government. The
cable company's property was seized by the
Venezuelan government under a decree OF
the high court on the ground that Ii had
failed to meet it's obligations under the con-
cessions in the matter of supplying proper
cable connection. Another suit brought by
the government against the cable company
is for heavy DANA ges on account Of alleged
aid extended by the company to the revo-
lutonists during the Matos insurrection.

FURTHER STEPS UNwARRANTED
Decision in the Case Of Arthur L..
Evans Of the Pension Bureau

The acting Secretary Of the Interior has
returned to the commissioner Of pensions
the papers in the case Of Arthur L. Evans,
a clerk in the stationery division of that
bureau, with the statement that after con-
sulting the assistant attorney general for
the Interior Department 1t is his opinion that
there is insufficient evidence to warrant any
further steps being taken in the premises
The Evans case has attracted attention
in the pension bureau because of its pecu-
liar circumstances. Some months ago
man was arragned in the local Police
Court charged with stealing a quantity Of
stationery from Mr.. Evans. During the
hearing Of the case It was developed that
the stationery was similar to that used in
the Interior Department and that some of 1t
had the Interior Department letter heads
stamped upon it. An investigation was
started to discover how Evans became
possessed of official stationery, and the re-
port of this investigation was sent to the
acting secretary for his approval. The act
ing secretary referred the report to the as
sistant attorney general for opinion and
his attitude in the premises determined the
action Of the department. Evans claims to
have bought the paper several years ago.
The documents in the case were returned to
the commissioner of pensions.
