Treasury opened its doors Thursday.
A year ago the deficit was $13. 200. 900,

The increased deficit in October was
due to the fact that the receipts for

TROOPS OUT Of CONTROL

vicinity Of Hankow, stating that the
imperial forces burned the native city
lof Hankow, and confirming the report
to the Chinese war board that the i'm
lperial troops massacred men. women
and children during several days.
fighting.
Letters from correspondent at
ISin-Yang- Chow, declared that General
Yin Tchang's troops were beyond CON
Itrol They are described as insub-
IOrdinate, and as having looted the vii
|lages north of Hankow.
The imperials had the advantage in
troops, but they were poorly pro-
visioned. No prisoners were taken.
Rebels captured alive were shot or
lldecapitated. 1t is learned that the
most barbarous outrages were per-
IpetTated on innocent persons in the
villages. An officer of Yin-Tchang's
staff explained that the outrages were
committed by only 40 men OF the HUI
Peh division.
Gen. Ying-Tchang refused permis-
sion to the correspondents to proceed
to the front and placed them under
the strictest surveillance. At head
quarters all kilograms undergo the
Istrictest censorship.
The star officers, says the corre-
spondents, are quartered in an ex-
press train, with engine attached for
immediate service. The chief of stat,
Colonel Yih, is now at the front di-
Irecting operations.
The general staff consists mostly of
German and Japanese trained men,
but the campaign does not reflect
much credit upon them. as they are
seemingly ignorant of the country.
The soldiers are not bothered by their
officers and do as they please. Com
ing from the northern provinces they
have no sympathy with the rebels.
