Resident Guatemalans mere state
that the whole country is ripe for the
overthrow of Cabrera. The season of

Castillo had his forces. and from the

The revolution is the most widely
spread of any in the history of that
country. Foreign planters nave been
waiting for months for General Barillas

REFUSE TO BE
IINSULTED BY DONNA
Gar and Ministry to Take No Notice
of Lower Houses Demands, but
Continue to Be Conciiiatory.

ST. Petersburg, May 31.-Ae fore
Swallowed in the Associated Press dis
patches last night, the government has
decided on it's course of action with
reference to the vote of the lack of con-
idence of the lower house and it's de-
mand for the resignation of the min
iStry.
1t will swallow parliament's affront
and treat its resolution simply as a
declaration beyond its competency and
monarch. In other words the govern
ment has decided to ignore the demand
of the lower house and the ministry
will not resign, but neither will parlia-
mest be dissolved
Moreover, instead of treating the ac-
ton of the lower house as cause for
offense the ministry will continue its
conciliatory attitude in the hope the
storm will subside, INC unless parlia-
ment takes some revolutionary action
the original plan for ~prolongation Of
the session until it is time for the
will be carried out. In the meantime
the government will offer its own prof.
ects for solution of the agrarian ques-
ton, ETC., n if they are rejected the
lower house will be allowed to elabor-
ate it's oWn projects.
No amnesty will be granted, but po-
litical prisoners will be released as rap
idly as possible. The ministry is evil
IDENTIFY strongly convinced it's agrarian
program will win the support of the
conservative interests Of the country.
which naturally are frightened 1T the
universal scheme for the appropriation
of land proposed by the lower house.
Both the ministry and Count Carnarilla
are understood TO have joined in a de-
cision to adopt the above tactics.
The spirit Of the lower house is much
callner today. At the opening Of the
session a communication from the
premier was read, announcing hat an
Interpolation regarding the death sem
tence imposed by court martial at Riga
on eight workmen accused Of political
murder and robbery had been trans
.mitted to War Minister Radfger.

New York, May 31.-The report Of the
expert accountants who have been ex-
amining the New York Life Insurance
company under direction of the Fowler

1t stated hat on December 81, 1905, the
New York Life had a balance available

ceeds that claimed by the company in

I'VE find" say the accountants, that
or December 81. 1905. the total assets
amounted to $43s, 1856. Ole. 39. and fully
worth hat sum.

ment is sound, its methods and system
of collecting premiums are effective and
economical and its books and records

s2o,Ooo,0o0 MISSED
in GOVT AUDIT
Congress Likely to Investigate
Discrepancy Reported by
Census Bureau.
BOOKKEEPING SUSPECTED
No Records to Prove Whether or Not
There Is a Shortase-Fis-
ures Are Three Years
Behind.

+; Washington, May 31-A discrepancy
OF $4,000 600 between the reports OF
the auditors of the various departments
and the report Of the director OF the
census on appropriations and eXpendi-
lures of the government for the year
1909 has been brought to the
of the appropriations committee of the
houses of congress, and Will lead TO a
congressional Investigation.
The auditor 9 reports show all expend-
itures which have passed under their
vision. The director of the census shows
the actual expenditures, and, less there
has been an error somewhere, $40, 600
was expended in 1903 which cannot be
accounted fT.
Expenditures are always less than the
appropriations, and the law requires
that un~expended balances shall be
turned into the general fund of the
treasury, to be r-eappropriated, if neces-
sary by the mex congress.
In the reports submitted to the APP
propriations committee there is Moth
ing to show that the sum in question
was ever turned n h treasury. 1t
is believed ~ will be found there, but
will be asked to authorize an investiga-
ton.
Provide FOR Investigation.
Chairman Tawney, Of the house
committee on appropriations, expects
to offer a resolution providing for a
.JOllll fCOIllIilkLt6G Ol lIlE0e SENATORS ana
three members Of the house, with au-
thority to sit during the recess of
congress and Investigate expenditures.
If public money a be wasted with
out an accounting, congress wan to
know it, or if the system of bookkeep-
ing in the departments is such that
an apparent loss of $20,0 10000 is
show when no loss has occurred, then
a new and better system should be de-
Nised.
The director IF the census is required
by law to make a compilation of the
actual expenditures of the govern
ment, as shown by the reports of the
auditors and figures furnished him by
the treasury department.
This is intended to be a permanent
record and lot a check upon the re-
sponsible financial agents of the gov
eminent.
1t therefore happens that the census
figures are three years behind, and but
for the discovery of the manner in
which they differ from the total ex-
p~enditures as shown by the reports
OF the auditors, they would % have
been considered by the appropriations
committees.
AS it is, they cen to point to some
thing radically wrong in the whole
system of government bookkeeping,
and a congressional Investigation has
been decided upon as the only method
OF aSCertaininE what it is.

in his home early in the evening.

Washington, ID. c., May 431.-At a.
two hours session of the conferees on
the railroad rate bill yesterday a num-
der of undisputed amendments were
agreed to tentatively.
All the disputed points were passed
over n considerable time devoted to
the discussion OF the SO called Jim

has given the republican conferees
some concern, because of complaints

ration of the races.
Tiunan announced he would
not consent to any change in the sem
ate provision.

the day every amendment in the bill
had been gone over. Twenty-Five of
n hfty-three amendments have been
disposed OF. either by acceptance or
rejection, the indication being that
most have been accepted.
The important amendments are still
subjects OF consideration and the midi
cations are that a speedy agreement
cannot be hoped for The express COM
.pany amendment is still disagreed to;
the pipe line amendment is also one
OF those unsettled; likewise the amend
.ment forbidding common carriers own
1ership In producing properties; the
Jim crow" car amendment is also in
dispute. also the pass amendment and
that relative to the size OF the commits
sion.

icussing the amendment requiring i've
days notice, before the issuance of an

doubtless be modified. Severa counter
propositions have been made. one MAX
ing h time two, another one, and an
other three days. and still another to

cersre..manJ Shirley Says Display Of
Wsalthy at Forsisn Capitals
Should Cease.

Washington, d. c.. May 31.-During
She consideration OF the diplomatic and
consular bill in the house an interest,"
ing ebate was had on the amendment
proposed by Mr.. L~ongworth, Of Ohio,
to appropriate 81, oo0. 900 for the acquisi-
buildings for the embassies n lega-
tious of the United States for the resi-
dences of ambassadors and ministers
to foreign countries.
Mr.. Longworth in urging his
amendment, which went out on a point
of order, insisted hat by providing
residences for our ambassadors the
question of rent woul be eliminated.
He said this was now the largest neces-
sary expense. With a residence provid-
ed by the government a man of moder-
ate means could live in a dignified way
on his salary.
Mr.. Shirley. of Kentucky, discussed
"the wasteful extravaganza. the out
rageous and un-American method of
some of u representatives abroad"
He spoke of the representative OF
America to the court OF st. James,
paying $4O,0 900 q year for house rent
in london and remarked that he
was not representing, but misrepre-
senting, h country hat honors
him.
There is a dignity that demands
a proper dwelling place" said Mr.
Shirley. that demands a decent liv-
ing; an opportunity to entertain prop
erly the representatives of other gov
ernments and American citizens who
be abroad, but that dignity is
violated the moment you step across
the line and get into display. No
worse example can be given the people
of America than this display when a
mar has to be a nulti1nillioraire, or
some member of his family one. in
order that he may accept post at
London, at Paris, at Berlin or at st.
