FACES CHARGE OF
PERJURY.
STAGE FRATERNITY REJOICEs Al
THE AcQUITTAL OF RAY
MoND HITCHCOCK.

New York, Mar. 17.-FIora Winston,

At the office of the Gerry society,
Superintendent Jenkins said he had
nothing to say concerning the charges
made by the girl against one of the
society's agents, to the effect that the
agent had instructed her to testify
against Hitchcock, and that any state
ment regarding them must come from
the district attorneys office.
When the news of the verdict ac-
quitting Hitchcock reached Broadway
there was rejoicing among the actors
friends, and dozens of congratulatory
messages were sent to him, and to the
Office of Henry w Savage, his man
ager. At Mr.. Savage's office It was
said that no definite arrangement had
been made for Hitchcock's future but
that his company might be called to-
gether in the near future and resume

PAID REPORTERS
TO BOOST BOATS
ELECTRIC COMPANY, HOWEVER,
CLAIMS PUBLICITY WORK
WAS ONLY PROPER.

Washington, D. c., Mar. 17.-Admis-
sion was made yesterday, before the
special house committee investigating
the charges of Representative Lilley
of Connecticut, regarding the legis-
latiYe methods of the Electric Boat
company, that money had been paid
by the company to certain newspaper
men to prepare and distribute news
COncernig submarine beats. This tes-
timony was given by Charles 5. Nc
Neir Of this city, an attorney for the
boat company. McNeir, however, en-
tered a general denial that his COM
pany had ever paid for dissemination
of news with the purpose of intuenc-
ing legislation or for creating a wrong
impression in the public mind. He
also denied that a general press bur
eau was maintained by the company
or that as far as he knew the company
had never spent money for the enter
tainment of congressman Of others
who might exert influence in securing
contracts with the government for its
boats. A number of other witnesses
were examined during the day and
they entered general denials to Mr..
LiIley's charges.

BIG SLASH IN
FORTS MEASURE
HOUSE COMMITTEES REDUCES
PROPOSED ALLOWANCE FROM
SO TO 8 MILLIONS.
CUT is ASSURANCE TO JAPAN
THAT UNITED STATES HAS
NO WAR PLAN.

Washington, d. c. March 1.-THE
Notifications bill, carrying $8,21O,611,
instead of $3S,643,945 asked for by
the war department, was reported yes.
terday to the house committee on ap-
preparations by the subcommittee. The
subcommittee felt, aside from other
considerations, that to recommend an
appropriation of $38,OO0,OO0 for fortifi-
cations at this time would be action
which might be very reasonably con-
Strued by Japan as an official decla-
ration that the United States was. pre-
pairing against a war with that nation
The amount recommended by the
committee is larger than any which
has been annually appropriated since
the Spanish-AmeriCan war. The cut
ting down Of the departments esti-
mates by $30,233, 1874 means, among
other things, that the committee has
recommended practically nothing for
continental United States and has ap-
propriated mainly for the Hawaiian
and Philippine islands. The commit
lCt ItGto lut uCu uOWh eIllII6ly the uS-
partment's proposals for the fortifica-
ton of Manila harbor by the cOnstruc-
ton and fortification of an artificial
island, and nothing is carried for Su-
big bay. But provision is made for
the fertilization of the Caraba0 island
in Manila bay.
The only points in continental
United States appropriated for in the
bill as revised by the committee are
Deception Pass, Puget Sound; at
Charleston, S. c.; Pensacola, Fla;
Mabile, Ala, and various points where
expenditures are required for installa-
ton Of range-fnding apparatus.
For the Hawaiian islands practic-
ally everything is allowed that was
recommended by the Taft board, ex-
cepting the fortification of Pearl har-
Dor.

state treasury and showed that the
cost of building the capitol was more
