San Francisco.-The Rev. Henry G.
Mabie. general secretary Of the Am

turned from the Orient Thursday on
the steamship Korea. He has been on
four months tour of the Orient, in
specting the mission stations. He
gave careful study to the Japanese
question and says that Americans
should be warned against underesti-
mating Japan's strength.
"They have a standing army Of a
million men," he said, "and their drill
work is not the performance of per-
functory evolutions. They go at it In
the greatest earnestness. Every day
of their lives they are put through
the jiu jitsu exercises and the result
Is stocky, straight set-up soldier, as
square cut and trim as the English
Tommy Atkins ever was. No nation

Or takes the greyhound for try.

Must close his gay bazoo.

SANTA FE ROAD is INDICTED
Charged with Granting Rebates
Amounting TO $4,000 to Kan
sas Sugar Company.

CHICAGO, July 10.-An indictment
charging the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe
railroad with granting rebates amounting
10 $4,000 to the American Sugar and Land
company Of Garden City, Kan, was re-
turned TO the grand jury in the United
States district court. The indictment con-
tains sixty-hve counts. each one relating
to an alleged infringement OF the law and
the company, II convicted, is subject to a
maximum fine of $4,000. or a minimum
of $500
The rebates are said to have been
granted by the Santa Fe railroad while
the sugar refinery was being erected at
Garden City In 1896 and 1906, on shipments
of building material. the freight on which
amounted 10 $4,000. II is alleged that the
railroad had agreed to return $4,000 of the
$4,000 but that no less than $1,000 had
been paid when complaints were heard
from other shippers and the government
commenced an investigation. 1t is claimed
by the government officials that the on
cials OF the railroad have admitted that
Sl2COO was paid, but 1t is maintained by
the railroad that the money constituted a
bonus to encourage the building of the
sugar refinery on a site adjoining the rail-
road and was not given as rebate nor
as a discrimination against other shippers
