IN DEBT TO GOVERNMENT
Army Officers Surprised as Result of
Court Decisions.

Washington, Oct. 2.-Scattered
throughout the United States and its
insular possessions are a number of
officers of the army who are said to
be talking just now about the unlucky
star under which they were born.
It all arises from asking the govern
ment to send them longevity pay.
which the supreme court OF the Unit
ed States declared recently they were
entitled to. Back came reply from
Auditor Harper, for the war depart
ment. that they were in debt to the
government ard that on account of
the condition of the treasury they
should pay up right away or words
to that effect.
Upon receipt of the claims of these
officers an examination was made OF
their accounts. IL was found that
many of them were in debt to the
government according to another de
c:s.on Of the supreme court, rendered

.PEkRY TAKES PART
IN NAVAL PARADE
Explorer Given Ovation In hud-
sOn-FuItOn Celebration.

New York, Oct. with Command
er Robert E. Peary and every mem
ber of the crew that accompanied him
on his quest of the North pole aboard
the steamer Roosevelt, just back from
the region of eternal Ice, was a silent
feature of the naval parade up the
lower Hudson to meet the Half Moon
and Clermont at Newbnrgh.
This naval parade was the prin.
cipla incident of the celebration SO far
as Manhattan was concerned. In
Brooklyn the historical pageant OF
last Tuesday was repeated and there
was everywhere the usual expectation
of aeroplane flights, but the great ma
jority of sightseers flocked to the
banks of the Hudson. There they
saw, in addition to Peary's vessel, a
great fleet of excursion steamers
tugs, yachts, motor boats and othei
craft which fell into line for the fifty
mile Journey to Newburgh.
The Roosevelt's programme from
Quarantine to her dock at the foot oi
West Forty-second street was marked
by a continuous blast of whistles and
when she came off Riverside drive
where the crowd was gathered, and
started on her way up the river the
salute was taken up by thousands ol
cheering voices.

DECLINES TO

Action Taken by National
Geographic Society.
AWAITS OFFICIAL RECORDS

Before the Society Can Accept athe
Claim of Commander Peary or Or.
Cook That the North Pole Has
Been Attained II viii Be Necessary
That the Papers of Each Explorer
Be Carefully Examined.
Washington, Oct Pin view of the
polar controversy the board of d.
rectors of the National Geographic So
ciety held a special meeting to de-
termine the attitude the board should
assume toward DR.. Frederick A. Cook
upon the occasion of mis- visit here
next Sunday, when he will deliver a
lecture on his Arctic experiences.
The decision was reached that DR..
Cook under the circumstances could
not be recognized in an official way,
The conclusions of the board were
stated In an announcement by Pro-
fessor Willis l.. Moore, president OF
the society, who urged that both
Commander Peary and DR.. Cook lose
no time in submitting their observa
tions, notes and data to a competent
scientific commission in the United
States. The announcement states:
Before the society can accept the
conclusion of either Commander
Peary or Dr. Cook that the North pole
has been attai1ed 1T will be necessary
that the scientific records and data
of each explorer be carefully exam
ined by its committee on research OF
by somebody or commission accept
able to the board. The society takes
this position not from any distrust o.
the personal integrity OF either ex
plorer, but because Of the many cal
culations that enter into the deter
mination Of the pole. The National
Geographic society urges Commander
Peary and DR.. Cook speedily to sub
NIT all thei~ observations, notes. ant

few statesmen who do not smoke He
never had the habit. Not only does he
refuse to smoke but he has a great
and positive distaste for tobacco in
any form. The odor ie offensive to
him. and out of Difference to him sena-
tors who have been in service long
enough to know his aversion do not
smoke in committee meetings he at
tends. This is one of the reasons why
the veteran senator is so regular in
his seat The cloak room, where the
official smoking is done, not only has
no joys to him but is a place of tor
ment.
There has long been a rule better
recognized in the breach than in the
observance. that no smoking was al
lowed in elevators and corridors of The
senate wing. Senator Allison was a
great smoker, and nobody took the rule
seriously while he was the head of the
scheme of things. But when Hale sue
ceeded him, the senatorial help. with
out the need of being told began to
enforce the rules. They knew the
Maine mans attitude of mind about
smoking. and nowadays the luckless
person who strolls thru a corridor
smoking, or perchance softly whistling,
is pretty likely to be stopped by an of
ficer and told that he.wil have to OBJ
serve the rules or be elected.

promises to be mainly the result OF
the decisions of Representatives
Gaines of West Virginia and Crum-
| packer of Indiana.
There are twelve republicans on the
ways and means committee, which is
now engaged in framing the republi-
can measure. These have so divided
on questions of fundamental policy
that they are commonly set down
thus:
Standpatters, who favor the closest
possible adherence to the present
schedue-Dalzell. Bonynge. Needham
Fordney and Calderhead
Advocates of distinct downward re-
vision = Payne. Mccall, Hill, Boutell
and Longworth.
This is an even division on essen
tials, and leaves Gaines and Crum-
packer to decide knotty questions.
They have shown disposition to go
some times one way. some times an
other; but their votes are commonly
cast together. and very generally have
been decisive.
The committee is taking utmost pre-
cautions to prevent leaks of informa-
ton about the rates that are being
adoped. in order to prevent specula-
tive importation or other interference
with the natural course of business.
There has been fear that If the I'M
preston got out that considerable re-
auctions in duties were to be made.
dealers would quit importing articles
on which reductions were expected.
and the result would be a big falling
off of revenues just at the time when
the government, with a deficit already
on its hands, needs the money. The
failure of revenues to improve in the
last few months is regarded, indeed, as
in large part due to the tendency Of
revision. The improvement in other
lines of business has been vastly out
of proportion to that in importations
which would be indicated by mere sur
lace COHSlucIitlOll vi tIlS SuStOlIlS ASSS
enues This is always the experience
in tariff revision times. Stocks are
allowed to go down to the minimum
if reduction of duties is expected, as
now; they are filled up by speculative
in1portations in vast quantities, if in
creases are looked for. After the new
law takes effect, the reverse of this
condition ensues; in the present case
there is every rason to anticipate
healthy imports and revenues immed-
lately after the new law takes effect.
