DECISION AS TO DEPOSIT BY
CHINESE MINISTER.
Eight Years Ago He Paid an As
sessment for Widening
10th Street.

r. II. Thomas, corporation counsel. has
given as his opinion that 81. 1877 45 deposit
ed with the District by Writing Fang
eight years ago in connection with an as
sessment for widening 10Th street, on
which the Chinese legation is located,
can be turned over from it's present rest
Ing place in the miscellaneous trust funds
to the regular revenues Of the District.
When the Chinese government bought
the property for legation purposes it was
sold subject to an assessment, so 1t is said
In the ONCE of the collector of taxes
When the assessment of 81 1877 45 was paid
by check by Minister WI no one knew
what to do with the money, and a board
meeting was necessary before the Com
missioners could set the matter tempo
rarily Alright. DIR. Tindall, secretary of
the board, sent out an order dated April
10. 1902 that the amount due on the lot
when transferred from the original owner
to the Chinese government would be re-
ceived as full payment of all general
taxes. 1t was ordered. of course. that the
collector should withhold this property
should be held Sin escrow until the
courts should decide the question of
whether the widening of 10th street and
the subsequent assessments were legal
For five years that check was held In an
envelope in the Districts vault and Au-
gust IA. 1907, was cashed and the amount
deposited with the other miscellaneous
funds Auditor Tweedale discovered the
amount hiding in the treasury a few days
ago and sent the papers to Mr. Thomas,
who reports that the courts have decided
so that the District can have the money.

Bet Officers.

The report Of the court of inquiry which
Investigated the controversy between Gen.
Elliott, commandant of the Marine Corps.
and Col. Lauchheimer. adjutant and IN
spector of that corps. has been submitted
TO the Secretary of the Navy. The record
OF the court. including all the testimony
and arguments OF counsel, covers about
1900 typewriter pages.
Although the proceedings were conduct
ed secretly and the findings OF the court
are carefully guarded from public knowl-
edge. II is a matter of gossip In naval
and marine circles that the investigation
showed the existence OF considerable bad
feeling and friction among certain high
ranking officers of the Marine Corps sta
toned In this city. In the absence of pos
tive information much speculation is rife
regarding the probable result of the in
ouiry. 1t is intimated that two or more
officsrs may be subjected to court-martial
proceedings, or at least reprimanded.

DEMOCRATIC DEFEAT
WITH EASE PREDICTED
Taft Will Welcome the Participation
of His Predecessor in State
Campaign.
RELIES ON LONG FRIENDSHIP
Not at All Apprehensive That
Former President Will At
tack the Attitude of the
Administration.

Intimation in Washington from a re-
Eponsible source is that ex-President
Roosevelt will be the successor of Chaun-
cey NJ MDepew In the United States Senate If
he can carry New York state for the re-
publicans next fall. In spite of the po-
lftical outlook there, republicans say that
the ex-President, with the known proba-
bility that he may want the senatorship,
will defeat the democrats with ease.
President Taft will welcome the active
participation of Col Roosevelt in the
New York campaign. believing that it
will be Of great benefit to the party. He
realizes the tremendous force of the for
mer President. as well as his shrewd
political management. Great impetus
would be given to the republican cam
paign In all parts of the country with
the ex-President leading the republican
forces in New York. Hand-in-hand with
the Taft administration, republicans pre-
dict that the two would be unbeatable.
Would Delight the President.
Mr.. Taft would also be delighted, it is
believed, to see Col. Roosevelt In the
Senate after next March. Throughout the
troublous times of the last year Mr.. Taft
has found great comfort In the presence
I'm the Senate of Elhu Root, whose broad
craftsmanship and sage advice constant
" have been at the service OF the Presi-
dent. 1t is declared that with Roosevelt
in the Senate New York would have the
greatest pair of senator's any state ever
had Ina the United States Senate, and
would bring together In harmonious ac-
ton the three men who were foremost
in the last administration.
Mr. Taft. 1t is positively known. has not
t,se east apprehension that the ex-Presi-
cent will tn n upon him or his administra-
on. He will not admit that his con-
fderce is based upon information already
in his possession, but there Is growing
belief In well-informed circles that this is
true. Therefore, the President would find
great pleasure in the presence in the SEN
ate. where his advice would be freely
sought, of the former President.
Roosevelt's Friends Ready.
Intimate friends of Col. Roosevelt in
New York are prepared to push the sena-
toria! boom and some Of them do not pro-
pose to let up until they have forced a
popular demand in New York. They de-
clare that IL Roosevelt wins for the re-
publicans in New York this year the
fruits of the victory will belong TO him.
and they believe that victory Is all the
more certain with a widespread belief that
the former President will accept the SEN
atorship.
Mr.. Roosevelt has in the past expressed
himself as averse to the Senate. but 1t is
pointed out today that there is no other
place in public life. except the White
measures he favors. His great influence,
aided from the White House. would al
most certainly mean success for such leg
islation as he advocated.

PARIS, April 27.-Col. Roosevelt this
morning saw a portion of the garrison
of Paris perform war operations on the
field Of Vincennes. outside the gates o.
that town.
Accompanied by Gen Dalstein, military
governor of Paris, American Ambassador
Bacon, NJ. Jusserand, French ambassador
at Washington, and Maj T. Bentley Mott,
military attache at Paris, he drove in an

Here the party. with the exception OF
NJ. Jusserand. mounted horses. Escorted
by a platoon of lancers, they rode out to
the maneuvering field. an open space one
and a half miles long lying between the
chateau and the forest Of Vincennes.
There a series Of evolutions were exc
cuted rapidly under service conditions In
order to give Mr.. Roosevelt an oppor-
tunity to observe the technical methods
of the French army. The manelVers
simulated an attacking army, consisting

Roosevelt Likes Dash and Go.
AS the rear guard Of the retreating
army fed before the charge of the
dragons. the spectacle was thrilling.
Col Roosevelt warmly congratulated
Gen. Dalstein upon the dash and go
displayed by the troops and the ad-
mirable fashion in which the opera
tiOns were executed.

Rayner addressed himself to the general
aspects Of the administration railroad
bill. while that measure was under con-
sideration for amendments.
Mr.. Rayner gave special consideration
70 the sections relating to the issuance
Of stocks and bonds by railroad corpo-
rations and to the financial organization
OF such corporations, which provisions,
he contended. were no part OF the regu-
lation OF coznmerce. But assuming that
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1910-04-27

they do not constitute such a regulation,
he claimed that in so far as the state
charters to railroads were concerned the
provisions were still contrary to the
Constitution.
He asserted that Congress would have
as much right to lower the salaries or
the officers Of road or to decrease the
wages OF its employees as it would have
to regulate its issuance OF stocks ana
bonds.
