ASK JUDICIAL ADVICE
NEW YORK GRAND JURY MAKES
PERTINENT INQUIRIES IN
REPORT TO COURT.
AFTER OFFICERS OF CORPORATIONS
EVIDENCE SUBMITTED SHOWING
CONTRIBUTIONS TO POLIT-
IcAL CAMPAIGNS.
AFTER OFFICERS OF CORPORATIONS

New York, March THE New York
county grand jury during the day
made presentment reciting that the
grand jury had been informed by the
district attorney that there Is reason
able grounds to believe that within
the statute of limitations officers or
trustees of large corporations have
contributed money to political cam
paign funds.
The jury asks advice Of Justice
O'Sullivan of the court Of general ses,
sions, to whom the presentment was
made, as to the future course to be
pursued by the jury. The present
ment is accompanied by long state
ment of facts setting forth that 1t can
be shown by lawful evidence beyond a
reasonable doubt that such payments
Of money have been made.
The grand jury finds itself in doubt
as to whether the making of these
payments constitutes crime and it is
upon this point especially that the ad'
vice of Justice O'Sullivan is asked,
the grand jury not being willing to
give further time to investigation
along these lines unless the acts that
can be proved to have been committed
were against the law.
The jury asks whether the facts
stated IN It's presentment show that
grand larceny has been committed or
II the officials making contributions
have not committed larceny whether
they have committed any other crime.
Another question is whether author,
ization of the contributions by the di-
rectors, trustees, stockholders or pol
icyholders would constitute ground
for declaring the acts not to be lar
ceny.
Justice O'Sullivan, after hearing the
presentment, replied that he would
advise the grand jury in few days.

SENATOR HALE SAYS INTENTION
OF GENERAL STAFF MEANS
DECLARATION OF WAR.
las FAITH IN SECRETARY OF STATE
WITH THAT OFFICIAL SITTING ON
THE LID FEAR OF HoSTIL-
TIES Is LESSENED.

Washington, March when the
bill to provide for the increase of the
efficiency of the medical department
of the army was called up in the sen.
ate Mr.. Hale spoke In opposition to 1t.
In the course of his remarks he said
that the general staff had prepared
plans for the invasion of China by an
American army, but he added that he
did not mean to go into that subject,
for the secretary of state is sitting on
the lid and do not believe we are
likely to have war"
Mr.. Hale said it was the purpose OF
the general staff to invade China,
which would be a declaration Of war.
Mr.. Hale was replying to question
of Mr.. Tillman, who asked how many
troops had been sent to the Philip
pines with view to their being sent
to China, and Mr.. Hale said:
Il do not know how many troops
have been sent there, but think sew
eral thousand. The purpose of the
general staff is that they may be used
to invade China, If any emergency
arises, which, OF course, would be a
declaration of war while congress is
In session"
Mr.. Warren called attention to the
fact that even with the increase per-
mitted by this bill the medical corps
of the army would still be smaller
than that of the navy, but Mr.. Hale
contended that there was no analogy
between the two branches Of the serv-
ice. The army was not, he said, In
creasing as the navy was and he ar
gued that there was no necessity for
any increase In this time of profound
peace. He thought the navy had need
for a larger medical corps than the
army and believed the contract sur
geon system better for the army than
an ironclad list of medical officers.

American Military Preparations Par

ticulariy Annoying.
Peking, March 1.-THE Chinese gov
ernment Is greatly perturbed by the
reports of anti-foreign movements
printed in the American and European
press and particularly by the dis
patches announcing Americas prep
arations for military expedition In
case Of need. These reports, 1t Is al
legged, tend to embarrass the foreign
ministers and create strained rela-
tions between them and the officials
here.
A long edict published in the Off
cial Gazette, after referring to the
warlike reports, declares that they
are circulated by traitors who wish to
separate China from her friends. The
edict points out the great difficulties
which confront China at present and
the strong need for maintaining friend
ly relations with the powers. 1t re.
proves the Chinese students for
meddling with politics and charges
the officials. high and low, to thor
oughly protect the lives and property
OF foreigners, specifying the missions.

ment.
A strong force of the troops Of Yuan
Shi Kai has been sent to the southern
part OF the province of Chilli, where
the people have been threatening the
Christians.

LITTLE HOPE OF AGREEMENT
FRENCH AND GERMAN POSITIONS
FULLY SET FORTH IN OPEN
CONFERENCE.

Algeciras, Spain, March THE po-
sitions as defined before the confer
ence show that the Franco-German
deadlock is practically the same IN
open conference as 1t was during the
private exchanges of views. Herr Won
Radowitz, head of the German delega'
tion, In speech at the morning ses-
sion of the conference concluded as
follows:
"The powers being equally interest
ed in the police organization should
equally participate in It,"
France specifically declines equality
in the organization of the police, claim
ing that it Is a mere ruse to under
mine Frances legitimate special posi-
tion In Morocco. The text of the
speech of M. Revolt. chief of the
French mission, reads:
"The Observation-Disclosures OF the po-
lice would give no guarantee OF order
and presents grave difficulties. We
ask for recognition Of the Legitimate
power In North Africa and our spe.
cial interest in the maintenance OF
order In Morocco"
M. Revoil's speech also gave
frances first exact plan for the police.
showing that the rank and file should
consist of 1000 Moroccans under six
teen French and Spanish officers. Ger.

bodies officered by Frenchmen would
be stationed at four OF the great Mo-
roccan ports on the Atlantic, thus Civ.
ing France a dominating influence on
the Atlantic coast. The positions OF
France and Germany are SO dlamet-
rically opposed that the delegates see
little hope OF reconciling them unless

Grand Duke Frederick Francis was
sazetted during the day, placing his
uncle, Duke Paul Frederick, and the
latter's wife, the Princess Marie OF
Winsch-Graetz, under guardianship.
Only paragraph 6 of the laws of the
empire is mentioned as the ground for
this action. Mental weakness, drunk
enness and spendthriftness are re-
cited by the paragraph as sufficient
reasons for placing adults under guar

travagance is the cause in this case.

A FIRE AIarm snake story.

The following story taken from
the New Albany, Ind, Tribune
speaks for itself. And we doubt
not the truth of the story could
be proven if one had witnesses.
The first snake story of the
season. has been received from
Martinsburg on the Paoli pike
north of this city. Several morn
ings ago the whistle at the -four
min began blowing shrin blasts
at a furious rate causing great
excitement among the inhabi-
tants as they hurried to the
building.
Upon Investigation by the en-
gineer, Ira Durnill, he found a
large house snake entwined
around the whistle rope the
weight of the reptile having been
sufficient TO open the salve and
cause the loud blasts which is
the signal for FIRE in the little
burg. Ii is supposed his snake
ship had sought the boiler room
for warmth and whe.n the heat
became too strong started 70
