GREENE-GAYNOR GUILTY.
Contractors Must Pay Huge sum and
Pass FOur NeFrs i'm Prison

Pass FOur y eE in Prison.
At Savannah. Ga. Benjamin D. Greene
and John T. Gaynor. the two contractors
charged with defraudng the government
of S1.5O000O in harbOr contracts, were
fined S5T5.G49 each and sentenced to four
years in the penitentary. The charge
against the two men was embezziement of
United States government funds in con-
nection with the Savannah harbor con-
tracts. the work for frauds in which
Capt. Oberlin NJ. Carter served a sentence
in LeavenwOrth prison.
1t was in 1900 that Carter. formerly
captain in the corps of engineers. [. S.
A., was convicted of having swindled the
government out of $2,500,OO0 while he
had charge of the harbor improvements
at Savannah Ga. The department of
justice secured information which, it is
said, incriminates a number of prosperous
men as having had share of the steal
ings. 4 sworn statement has been made
by Carter to the effect that he had only
S772 O0O and that if $2.5OO,OO0 was TAX
en- the balance must be in the hands of
outsiders who were interested in the OPP
erations.
The two contractors were brought TO
trial only after most vigorous efforts on
the part of the United States government.
They were indicted in Savannah and put
under $4,000 bail each. but Jumped
their bonds in 1901 and fed to Canada.
Both fugitives were traced after long
search and were arrested in Quebec by
United States secret service officers. Here
they kept up long legal battle. Finally
the Canadian court of last resort ruled
Greene and Gaynor should be extradited.
Both men were then brought to Savannah.
Their trial lasted two months.

more favorable TO peace. however. At
the conference between the operator,
and miners last week President Mitch
ell submitted Il plan whereby the diff
ferences between the opposing parties
might be settled by arbitration. In
their reply TO the proposal of the an
thracite miners the operators in the
anthracite districts made a counter pro
pOsal limiting the issues to be arbitrat-
ed TO the question of wages and the
adjustment of complaints They fur
ther limited the scope of investigation
by STIMULATING that the arbiters should
determine only whether, since the
award of the last strike commission.
there has been any change of conditions
that would require a change OF the
award. The operators stand firmly
on the principles" enuDciated in that
award. declaring that ANY arbitration
that does not permanently settle such
questions is farce"
The anthracite miners now meet this
reply with another proposal in which
the terms of their original demand are
considerably modified. They do not ask
for an agreement with the United Mine
Workers of America. but only with the
anthracite miners. They consent to
eliminate some of the pending issues

not narrow the scope of the inveStiga-

operators. but it is thought the latter
cannot afford to insist that there be no
modification of the award fixed in 1902
Conditions have changed materially
since then and it is claimed to be only
fair that the proposed strike commits

change and go into the broader aspects

A million people are starving to death
In Japan, a million at the very lowest
estimate The first official reports last
December stated that 100000 people
were i'll restitution, but, far from get
ting better conditions have become
worse. and after careful investigations
1t has been found that at least 1,OO0,-
900 are reduced to the last extremity.
The Japanese are coming nobly to
the rescue of their suffering country
men, but with all their efforts only a
very small part of the suffering can be
reached. The government has project
ed and is carrying out millions of dol
lars worth of public works that every
day give employment to thousands of
poor people, and thousands of Japan
csc are making contributions in sums
ranging from 10000 yen given by the
