HONOR CONFEDERATE DEAD
Bids Opened For Monument to Mark
Their Resting Place.

Washington, June 21.-At the war
department today bids were opened
for the erection of monument to the
Confederate dead who are buried in
the Firms Point National cemetery at
Salem, N. j.
The monument, which Is to cost
about $500, viii be erected by the
United States government to mark the
resting place of 2.460 officers and men
of the Confederate army and navy
who died as prisoners of war at Fort
Delaware between 1862 and 1865.
The adoption of a general monu-
ment for the purpose is due to the
fact that 1t has been found impossible
because of imperfect records to place
distinctive headstone at each indi-
vidual grave, as contemplated by the
act of congress.
The commissioner for marking the
graves of Confederate soldiers is Gen
eral Edwin M. Coates, retired

tENATE ADDS A PRovIso
Meets Canada's Plan to Prohibit Ex-
portation of Logs.

Washington, June 21.-This coun-
try will be prepared to meet the move
made by Canada looking to the prohi-
5ition of the expectation of her logs
into the United States If the amend
ment suggested by the committee on
finance to the wood pulp paragraph of
the tariff bill shall be agreed to. As
soon as the senate had for the time
disposed of the income tax question,
Senator Aldrich presented the COM
mittee's amendment on pulp. The
house bill provides graduated scale
of duty for the various kinds of pulp
when imported from countries max
ing an export charge, but admits free
of duty mechanically ground pulp
coming from country in which no
such charge is made. The senate sub
stitute accepts the house provision.
but adds proviso intended to be a
response to the recently announced
decision of Canada not to permit the
further expectation of logs from that
country, the evident intention being
to compel the manufacture of such
logs in the region of their origin.

of One of the OrientaIs.
New York, June 21.-Messages have
been sent by the police to Colon and
Panama to hold up the party of Chi
nese who left this city a week ago
en- route to Vancouver, B. c., in the
hope of arresting I.eong Lee Lin,
alias William H. Leon, who occupied
the room in Eighth avenue in which
was found the trunk containing the
body of Miss Elsie Sigel, missionary
among the local Chinese, and grand
daughter of the famous general, Franz
Sigel.
The police discovered that Leong
Lee Lin started for Vancouver, via

restaurant. In the party for Van
couver is said to be also Ii Chung,
VINO occupied the room adjoining that
which revealed the gruesome tragedy
and In which was found some of the
murdered girls clothing. Orders were
issued to arrest him also. From the
condition of the body and other facts
II is believed the crime was commit
ted at least week before the body
was found.
From Mrs. Margaret Todd, mis-
sionary who first introduced Miss
Sigel into the work of converting the
residents of Chinatown to Christian
ity, the police learned that while the

time learned to love her.

sionary work among the Chinese of
this city for a few years, having be-
come interested therein by the ac-
tivity of her mother In behalf of the
Christianization of the Orientals. The
young woman was about twenty years
old.
Mrs. Florence Todd, one of the mis-
sionary workers In the Chinese Sec
ton, who identified Miss Sigel's body,
told the police that the girl and Leon
had been thrown much together for a
few years and that Leon was greatly
enamoured of the girl; that he was
intensely jealous of her and disliked
her to receive the attentions of other
men. This had caused Miss Sigel to
fear Leon, Mrs. Todd said
That Leon had other correspondents
than Miss Sigel was discovered when
between 1,500 and 1000 letters, main
ly from various women in New York
and other cities, were found In his

In one letter.
