REBATE AT MUKDEN
AMERICAN SHIPPERS COM
PLAIN OF DISCRIMINATION.

MUkDEN, July s-American shippers
in Mukden have made formal complaint
to their consul here Of the fact that the
Japanese railroad in Manchuria is dis
eliminating against them.
This discriminate is carried on by
means of rebate system under which
foreign shippers are excluded from using
the lines under the minimum cargo regu-
lation, and that they are not allowed to
combine their cargoes as are the Japan
csc. The viceroy of Mukdep has issued
proclamation ordering that German
trade to Feng- Hwang- Cheng be treated
on an equality with Japanese trade to
the same point.
The customs authorities at Kiran are al
legged to be discriminating in favor Of Jap.
anese importers of arms.
The present condition Of affairs is an
outcome of the fact that the various ma
tons concerned have made use OF CO.
ercion, each one independently in the in
terests of its own trade. The local vice.
roy is weak and they have succeeded in
making him do as they want. The foreign
consuls have to wage a constant warfare
for the protection of foreign trade.
Japan has proposed certain special con-
ditions in the new regulations to govern
the residence Of foreigners in Manchuria
She does not want to admit the right OF
the Chinese authorities to tax foreigners
and she desires to prevent the mortgaging
of Chinese property to foreigners. Some
other nations are at one with Japan In
wanting to put a stop to this mortgagins
business

BUYS FIJI COLLECTION
NEW YORK MUSEUM EVADES
BRITISH OPPOSITION.

NEW YORK, July S.-British opposi-
ton to the removal from the Fiji Islands

ing themselves of the difference in time
between here and the antipodes.
This Waters collection is the last great
assemblage in existence of objects illus
trating the Polynesian life 1t was gath
cred for forty years and consists of 1000
rare specimens.
Mr.. Waters, who assembled the collec-
ton, had given a special study to the
chronological development of the Fijian
arts and crafts. The collection was there
fore especially adapted for educational
purposes.
Negotiations were opened with him sew
eral months ago. The agent Of the
American Museum paid him a deposit and
thereby gained an option which was to
have expired June so.
Meanwhile the fact that the sale had
been so nearly made came to the notice
Of the British governor of the island and
to the council new law was drafted
providing that no such collections should
In the future be sent out Of the islands
without the consent of the authorities
Mr.. Waters was notified that in the event
OF the American Museum failing to re-
spond with the purchase price June 80 he
was expected to turn over the collection
to the British authorities at the same
figure. The dispatch providing for .ne
balance of the purchase money was sent
last Tuesday week. Owing to the ten
hours advantage In time 1t arrived within
the stipulated period.
The collection will be shipped from Su.
via, on VIII Levi Island, to Australia and
from there to London, where it will be
| transferred to a vessel bound for this coun-
try.

Lord Rosebery's character sketch of
Lord Kelvin was fine and felt What
most struck me was his tenacity.
his righteousness. his indefatigable
humility. In him was visible none
of the superciliousness and scorn
which sometimes embarrasses the strong
est intellects Without condescension he
placed himself at once on a level with his
companion. That has seemed to me char
acterist!c of such great men of science as
/ have met"
We have often wondered how it is that
while the great men Of science-the OAR

men. the men who have never originated
anything. but have merely tried to suck
In the ideas of the masters, SO often are
impatient spiteful, Jealous, assertive, i'm
pressed as profoundly by their own supe-
riority as by the stupidity of nine-tenths
of humanity. That this is the attitude of
the lesser fry of science. its stickleba cks
and tadpoles. no one will deny. The little
scientist is almost invariably too clever
by half. He hangs up PICTURES of Darwin
in his study. His talk Is of Darwin. Yet
he has as little of the heart as he has of
the brain of that great master.

died June IS. after drinking poisoned ale

progress has been made in the case since

The person who sent the bottle of ale
to the doctor has effectualIy covered his

about him is an imperfect description of
the man furnished by the expressman
who handled the express package and an
employe in A type foundry who sold a
letter "S'' to the supposed murderer. The
letter was used in stamping the label on

|BRITlSH NAVAL DISSENSI0NS
OPPOSITION TO ADMIRAL
BEREsFoRD GROWS SERIOUS.
Government Must Interfere Soon to
Abate What Portends a
Public Scandal.

LONDON, July S.-The campaign now
being waged by the newspapers agains,
Admiral Lord Charles Beresford has
reached a point where 1t seems inevitable
that the government must interfere If
some way to abate what is becoming a
public scandal. It is difficult to arrive
at the true facts in the case. but ever
since the notorious signal incident No.
yember 2, 1907, strained relations have
existed between Lord Beresford and
Rear Admiral Sir Percy Scott.
Lord Beresford also has declined te
continue his friendship with Sir Johr
Fisher. first lord of the admiralty. or
account of his disagreement with the
admiralty policy. This feeling has beer
so open that Lord Beresford. at one OF
the kings levees. held recently. dehb-
erately cut Sir John in the presence
NJ many naval and military officers.
Several of the influential London news
nanars onenIy clamOr for the resignation
or removal of Lord Beres1orn from inc
command of the channel Meet on the
ground that he cannot agree e..ner WIZ
that naval dissensions of such nature
are a national danger.
Other papers contend that Lord Beres-
ford is the victim of an unfair press
campaign. The Standard TINS morning
asserts that Lord Beresford signaled tc
Sir Percy Scott that he was quite right
in disobeying signal which the admiral
had sent up during the recent maneuvers
of the channel fleet. for an evolution
which. If obeyed. would have brought
the cruisers Argyll and Good Hope into
collision. and this incident. says the Stand
ard is helping toward the restoration OF
friendly relations between the two Of
ficers.
Subject of Question in Commons.
The dissensicns between the admlrais
was the subject of question in the house
of commons this afternoon. Replying,
Premier Asquith declared that apart from
certain unverified rumors the government
had RIO knowledge of the existence of any
trouble.
"If." he added, 1.-The government found
reasons to believe that state OF things
existed In any way detrimental 10 me
discipline and smooth working of the meet
it would not hesitate to take prompt anu
efficient action"
The premier repudated the suggestion
that the antagonism between the three OF
f1cers had originated from the recent
changes in the methods of naval admin
fstratton but he lent some color TO the
stories afloat by adding general warn
ing to all naval officers in active service
to the effect that it was not part OF their
business to discuss or cr1ticlse the naVai
policy of the government. but to carry IL
out Loyalty to their superiors in harmony
with one another. and with q single eye
10 the efficiency of the service.

TO REMAIN IN COURTHOUSE.
Office of Recorder Of Deeds Independ
ent Of District Government.

The recorder of deeds having received
a number of inquiries as to when his Of
flee will remove to the new District build
ing. Recorder Dancy says that the propo-
sition to remove the recorders Office there
was settled by Congress four years ago
last April, when 1t was decided that the
Offices of the recorder of deeds and OF
the register of wills should remain. in
the old City Hall building. or the United
States Courthouse, as 1t is officially
known.
1t is generally supposed that the re.
corders Office is a part of the District
government, whereas 1t is an Independent,
office. not subject in any manner to the
jurisdiction of the local municipal gov
eminent. The unexoended revenues OF
the office. however are deposited at the
end of each fiscal year in the Treasury
and then are placed to the credit of the
District, the same being true of the I'M
expended revenues of the Office of the
register of wills.

self-Denial of Scotch Student

From the LUhuOn SATURDAY Review.
Even the praise of academic poverty
must have a limit. and Lord Rosebery
seems to have reached 1t when he gave as
an illustration Of the Scottish student s
life the father of DIR. Robertson Nicoll.
when he was at Aberdeen University in
1880. He had at his command f12, OF
which fS went in fees. This left 81 ($2J)
for a season of twenty weeks His lodg-
ings cost him shilling a week. his food
was bread and cheese. his drink treacle
and water. and he had to face the lone
Aberdeen winter without fuel. Lord Rose
berry remarked, with his usual humor
that he was not recommending a diet. but
a character. Nor ought he, we should
think. to recommend 1t as an ideal OF
university life for young man.
