RUSSIA’S CONTRACT WITH COREA.
Reinarknhle Document Under \Vhich
the Czar Seized the Finances.
Tacoma, ‘Vash., Dec. 29.—The pecu-
liar and remarkable contract under
which- Russia seized the Corean
finances and customs, and thereby
forced out McLeavy Brown, the repre-
sentative of English interestsflhas been
translated. It is as follows:
“In accordance with the commands
of the Emperor of Corea, the Core-an
Minister Plenipotentiary in Russ-la,
M‘In Yong Hwan, having requested the
imperial Russian Government to send
to Corea an official versed in finance,
whose functions would be to transact
all the fin’ancal business in Corea and
to takegharge at the same time of he!
customs, the Russian Government ac-
ceded to the request and directed Mr.
Alexieff (described as “member of the
Great Council”) to proceed to Seoul,
where he recently arrived.
. “Now, therefore, the Corean Minister
of Foreign Affairs and the“ Russian
Minister, acting on behalf of their re-
spective governments, have consulted
as to the duties to be henceforth un-
dertaken by Mr. Alexieff, and have
agreed as follows:
“Mr. Alexieff is appointed as advisor
to the Corean Finance Department and
as Superintendent of Customs. The va-
rious departments and offices of Corea
shall conduct the financial affairs ap-
pertaining to them in accordance with
the recommendations and directions of
the financial advisor, and shall supply
him- with whatever documentary as-
sistance or aid of any other kind he
may require. The financial advisor
shall specially provide a suitable per-
son to superintend the Core-an customs
in lieu of the present occupant of that
post. The Superintendent of Customs
shall report to him all expenditures
and receipts. Should the financial ad-
visor have occasion to leave his post
he shall previously select a. competent
locum tenens, and shall make him dis-
charge his duties during his absence.
The person so selected must be ap-.;.
proved by the Corean Government and
the Russian Government. In the event-
of the financial advisor returning to
Russia he shall not leave Corea until
a. successor has arrived to discharge
his duties. The period of this engage-
ment is unlimited.”
It is dated Oct. 5. It will be seen that
Russia not only seizes the finances and
customs of Corea, but proposes to for-
ever hold the same, notwithstanding
that in her treaty with Japan after the
ChinaoJapan war she specifically
agreed to join Japan in maintaining
the independence of Corea, and not to
do any act that would jeopardize
Japan’s influence there.
ENGLAND NOT IN IT.
' She Declines to Become a Party 10
the Seal Agreement.
London. Dec. 29.—-Lord Salisbury, the
Premier, has-written to United State:-
Ambassador Hay in response to Agra-r.
im’s latest pmposals in the Behring
Sen controversy, requesting that Great
Brush: would enter into an agree-
ment. with the United States, Russia
and Japan to stop sealing.
Great Britain declined to enter into
such an agreement. Lord Salisbury
says, in substance, that he has com-
municated with the Canadian Govern-
ment, which has the foremost interest
in the sealing question, and than Cana-
da is unwilling to become a party H
such an arrangement as is proposed
by the United States. Therefore Eng-
land, continues Lord Salisbury, whose
interest is but slight, would not be jus-
tified in acceding to the proposals.
Lord Saflsbury’s answer emphasize:
the policy of Great Britain not to in-
torture in Canada’s form- relations.

AIRPS’li'HlI Relief. Not Intervention.
lie Says, and Defends Spain.
l‘x'ashington, Dec. 29,—Mr. Dupuy de
Lorne, the Spanish Minister, expreSSes
strong disapproval of reports that the
relief measures adopted by the United
States and co-operated in by Spain are
a step toward intervention by this
Government in the affairs of, Cuba.
The Minister characterizes such re-
ports as an effort to mix politics with
charity.
"This talk of intervention in certain
quarters,” he said, "has no other pun»
pose than to embitter both countries
and to divert the original essential pur-
pose of alms-giving. The extension of
aid to the sufferers in Cuba is no more
MINISTER DE LOME.
intervention than was the action of all
the nations of the world, including
Spain. to extend help to Chicago after
the big fire.”
Turning to a dispatch just received
fi‘om Dr. Congosta, Secretary—General
at Havana, the . Minister proceeded.
quoting in part from the dispatch:
"It is not true that the Spanish au-
thorities in Cuba are not equal to the
situation. Succor is being given abun—
dantly, and relief committees are in
regular operatic’m. In two of the prov-
inces—Puerto Principe and Santiago——
there has been no concentration. Forty
plantations are grinding sugar. Many
of the reconcentrados who are reported
to be suffering are in such condition
through an unwillingness to work. The
energy with which relief measures are
being conducted in Havana is shown
by a glance at the Havana papers
every day, where there are long lists
of charitable donations from private
parties. The Spanish Government has
remitted all duties on relief supplies
sent to Cuba. so that for every dollar
of supplies entering Cuba Spain adds a
considerable percentage.
“American help will be received with
the spirit in which it is given, and the
American Government, as Secretary
Sherman expressed in his recent letter,
offers the well-known generosity of the
American people in the same spirit
that they have accepted foreign help
in cases of public calamity.” ‘
TO DINE SECRETARY BLISS.
Protective Tariff League Will Honor
Its Retiring ‘President.
\Vashington, Dec. 29.——Appraiser ‘Wil-
bur F. \Vakeman has been in “'ash-
ington making the final arrangements
for a. notable banquet which the Ameri-
can Protective Tariff League will give
to Cornelius N. Bliss, Secretary of the
Interior, and the retiring president of
the Organization. _
The Waldorf—Astoria, in New York,
has been engaged for the banquet,
which will be one of the most remarka-
ble affairs of the kind ever given in this
country. It has been arranged -.that the
dinner shall be purely and distinctively
American. American music will be
provided, the bill of fare—not menu—
will be printed in plain English, and on
it will be found canvas-back duck, ter-
rapin and all peculiarly American
dishes. The wines and cigars will be
of American production, and the at-
tendance will be limited to patriotic
Americans. It is expected that the en-
tire Cabinet will be present, and pos-
sibly, the President. ‘
Mr. Bliss was one of the organizers
of the American Protective Tariff
League and served as chairman of its
Executive Committee until 1891, when
he was elected president, which posi-
tion he has occupied ever since. Mr.
Blifi feels that, as Secretary of the In-
terior, he cannot consistently continue
as president of the Tariff League, and
has decided to resign that position. It
is in recognition of his services to the
cause of protection that this dinner will
be given.
Speedy Trial for Eli Shaw.
Camden, N. J., -Dec. 29.—Supreme
Court Justice Garrison has ordered the
Camden County Grand Jury to return
the indictment against Eli Shaw at
once, in order that he may have a
speedy trial, and fixed Jan. 3 as the
date of the trial. Prosecutor Jenkins,
when informed of the action of the
Court, protested against such an early
date being set for the trial. He wanted
a delay of at least a month in order to
perfect his case.

The Comptroller Says Voluntary
l Liquidationlls Possible. '
, MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
If Creditors Accept the Plan and the
Directors 50' Vote. the Expense
and Delay of a Receivershlp \Vill
Be Avoided. -
Washington. Dec. 29.—Comptioiler
Eckels says, relative to the placing of
the Chestnut Street National Bank in
voluntary liquidation. in case the cred-
itors of the bank accepted the plan
proposed by the committee having it
in charge:
“I. have instructed» the DeputyHComp-
troller, George M. Cofiin, to at once call
a. meeting of thedirectors of the Chest-
nut Street National Bank to pass the
necessary resolution and issue notice
to the shareholders for a meeting to
vote to go into voluntary liquidation.
In addition, I have requested him to
have the directors obtain at once the
. signatures of. representatives holding
two-thirds of the bank’s stock. agree-
lng to vote for liquidation when the
matter is preSented at the meeting to
be called. Having done this, I have
stated that the Comptroller would then
I permit the bank to go‘ into voluntary
'3 liquidation, after the vote is had, on .
evidence being furnished that the cred-
itors of the bank have accepted the-
the committee in ’
plan proposed by
place of evidence of indebtedness from
the bank. By having this arranged be-
fore voting it will enable the public to
understand that immediately upon the
consent of the creditors being obtained
the bank will avoid the appointment of
a receiver and the expenses and delay
attendant upon a receivership avoided.
“I have studied the plan submitted
with care, and am of the opinion that
the creditors of the bank, the Trust
Company and Mr. Singerly will be bet-
ter cared for than by any method
which can be devised in which all the
assets represented by his various in-
terests are handled under different
agencies. Such a division of responsi-
bility and of assets would necessarily
entail disputes and result in expensive
litigation as to the rights of this or
that one in the property interests rep-
resented by him. It would also jeop-
ardize the value of the asset which is
the most to be looked for for the pay-
ment of the obligations due from the
institutions with which, he was con-
nected and from himseli". The impor-
tance of whatever action the creditors
take being quickly determined arises
from the wisdom of not permitting any
asset to be unnecessarily dissipated. or
any of the good will of any valuable
property in‘which Mr. Singerly' is ir-
terested lost. ' .
“The situation is now in the hands
of the creditors, and I believe that in
following the plan outlined the end will
fully justify their relying on the con-
servative management of those who
have heretofore been successful in un-
dertaking large financial matters.”
INTERSTATE COMMISSIONER.
Appointment 0.! Judge Paxson Not
Definitely Determined l'pon.
“'ashington, Dec. 29.-—The announce-
ment of Judge Paxson's selection as
Inter-State Commerce Commissioner,
seems to have been rather premature.
There are several applicants for the po-
sition from Illinois, and the announce-
ment which was made, with every in-
.dication of being reliable, has not de-
‘ terred them in the least from actively
pushing their claims. .
From what can be learned at the
White House it is not thought the ap-
pointment of Judge Paxson, of Penn-
sylvania, has been definitely deter-
mined upon, but that the question is
still open.
the leading candidate for the position
seems to be Judge Littler, of Illinois,
who has the indorsement of both Sena-
tors from Illinois.
Senator Mason was seen yesterday,
and he said that from what he could
gather from his visit to the Y‘Vhite
House he thought the appointment
would not be definitely settled until
next week. The friends of Judge Pax-
son. however, still maintain that he
will be Col. Morrison’s successor.
()ne of the Murderers Arrested.
Norristown, Pa., ‘Dec. 29.——-Martin
Conne-rs was arrested at Ardmore yes-
terday, charged with being one of the
gang that murdered Conductor Gallo-
way on his car on_Sunday night. He
was identified by the motorman and by
the three women who were in the car
at the time. He denied having been in
the neighborhood on the night of the
murder. He put questions to the wit-
nesses and endeavored to convince
them that they were mistaken. He was
committed for trial. Additional re-
wards have been ofiered for the detec-
tion of the mnrdererof Conductor Gal-
loway. The total amount is now $725.
Horton Law Violated.
Buffalo, N. Y., ' Dec. 29,—Jus-tice
Woodward, in the Supreme Court, has
handed down a decision on the legality
of iboxing as prescribed by the Horton
law. The Justice holds that the spirit
and intent of the law has been vio-
lated, and on the strength of such a
conviction holds the boxers who were
arrested in $100 bonds to keep the
peace for one year. The attorney for
the defense at once applied for an ap-
peal. The decision was the result of
the issue of warrants for the arrest of
three boxers who were about to engage
in a. contest by a,committee of minis-
ters.

Camden, N.~’J., Dec. 28.—Young Eli

of his mother and of his grandmother,
the Grand Jury yesterday indicting
him. Two new and heretofofe un-
known witnesses testified in support of
the State's case. .
When the investigation of the trag-
edy was resumed by the Grand Jurors
this morning James Dunn and his
wife. Sarah, who live at 238 Line
street. two doors below the Zane home,
were examined. Both swore to having
pistol shots fired on the
morning or the murder. They say that
the second shot followed the first by
at least six minutes. and that it was
fully five minutes after the second shot
when they heard Eli Shaw’s shouts.
This testimdny contradicts Shaw‘s
statements both as to the time and ,the
number 01' shots.

”Washington Dec. 28,—The State De-
partment is maintaining a passive at-
titude while the European govern—
ments are squabbling over China but
.t is quietly getting a. number of ships
in readiness for trouble. Admiral Mc-

NO SENATE SILVER BILL. t.__
;s lNorth Dakota Senator Does Not Believe
the Upper House Can Pass One.
Washington, Dec. 27.——During an in—
terview Senator Henry C. Hans-brough.
of North Dakota, Who ~has always
been counted as a. free silver man,
said: -
“There is no danger of the passage of
any 16 to 1 legislation by the Senate. I
am quite sure t'hatvthereris not a 16 to
1 majority in that body. W'ith the
present bright prospects for interna-
tional bimetallism the majority of the
Americanpeople are opposed to inde-
pendent'ac'tion on tit 16 to 1 or any
other revolutionary basis:
know 'of anything that would‘ drive
this country into financial revolution
unless it be. the narrow, radical and
pig-headed policy of the silver stand—
ard advocates.
“Secretary Gage’s radical declaration
_in faVor of the gold standard is not in
line with the platformof the Repub-
lican party.“ A special train carried a
gold standard contingent to St. Louis
The object of those gen-
tlemen was to force their peculiar
financial views upon the party. They
failed to do it, because they met there
the combined Republican wisdom of
the country and better counsels pre-
‘vailed. Had they succeeded in their
purpose Mr. Gage would not now be
Secretary of the Treashry.
“The President has earnestly en-
deavored to comply with, the mandates
of the convention which nominated
him. He will not cease to urge other
nations to join us in an international
agreement, and the great mass of Re-
publican voters will sustain him. The
Wolcott Commission has done remark—
ably well. The Republican party un—
der a solemn pledge to promote inter-
national bimetallism has been in power
a little over eight months, and yet one
of the great European nations has pos-
itively agreed to co-operate with us,
while the great Bank of England met
our commissioners half way. The con-
ditions in Europe are ripe for a con-
tinuation of further effort on our part.
To stop now would be suicidal. It
would be almost criminal."
