THE MORNING OREGONIAN, THURSDAY. MARCH 2S, 1901:
MO SHOW OF ARMED FORCE
MOROCCO INDICATES AXXIETY TO
. SETTLE THE AMERICAN CLAIM.
Consul-General- Gnnpere "Will Hot
. Take His Trip on the afew I'orlc,
"Wliicli Goes to Manila.
WASHINGTON, March ?7.-Secretary
Long: today cabled an order to Admiral
"Rogers, on board the cruiser New York
at Tangier, to proceed at once -with that
vessel to Manila. This is an abandon
ment of the plan to have the New Tork
convey United States Consul-General Gun
nere from Tangier to Mazagan. in the at
tempt to collect American claims. It Is
the purpose of the State Department to
endeavor to adjust these claims and other
outside issues against Morocco without
any show of force, and in the ordinary
I practice of diplomacy.
It is said that the United States Consul
General, who "had conceived that obsta
cles were purposely placed In the way of
his access to the court, has received as
surances that the actual reason for the
departure of the court from Morocc6 was
to pay a long-due visit to another section
of the country. It also was promised that
the court would return within a month
or six weeks, and would receive Mr. Gun
nere, probably even at Mazagan, thus ob
viating the necessity on his part for an
overland journey to the capital. In this
view of the case, and the New York being
badly needed in the East to take the place
of the Newark, it .was decided to let the
vessel proceed at once on her voyage.
Mr. Gunnere probably will now enter into
fresh communication with the Mo6rish
Government to secure another appoints
ment for a meeting.
WAR TAX DECISIONS.
Relating to Racket Shop Sales, Le
aclcii and Samples. '
"WASHINGTON, March 27". The Com
missioner of Internal Revenue has pro
mulgated the recent decision of the
United States Circuit Court of Appeals,
the third circuit, which held that no
stamp tax accrues on a presumptive 're
sale of stock where bucket-shop transac
tions are settled by payment of differ
ences. This decision will be followed by
the internal revenue officials in dispos
ing of all similar questions. The Com
missioner has alw held that there Is noth
ing In paragraph 3 of schedule A, act of
March 2, 1901, which implies that a pur
chase or sale of stocks must be pre
sumed and written memorandum deliv
ered when a transaction is closed or ter
minated. On the other hand, the act
presupposes that transactions are closed
without such memorandum of purchase or
sale, because they are made with the in
tent that they may be closed, adjusted or
settled according to or with reference to
the public market quotations, or with
the intent that they shall be deemed
closed or terminated when the public mar
ket quotations shall reaclf a certain figure.
It is only original transactions, either by
pretended purchase or sale, that require a
written stamped memorandum to be de
livered to the other party under said para
graph. He also provides that. the provis
ion in regard to keeping books applies
to all persons who do -any such business
as described in said paragraph, whether
such persons are also engaged in business
other than that of a bucket shop or not,
The Commissioner of Internal Revenue
Bias held that a legacy for literary, char
itable or educational uses, on which tax
has not been paid prior to March 1, 1901,
is exempt from taxation. The decision
was made in the case of a legacy to the
Philadelphia School of Design for "Women.
" The Commissioner has accepted the rul
Jng of the United -States Court of Appeals
for the ninth circuit to the effect- that
"goods are offered for sale" at the places
where they are kept for sale, and where a
sale may be effected. They are not of
fered for sale elsewhere by sending abroad
en agent with samples or by establishing
an office for the purpose of taking orders.

FAVORS AN INCOME TAX.
Report by an Expert of the Indus
trial Commission.
WASHINGTON, March 27. The Indus
trial Commission has made public a re
port on taxation of corporations, prepared
by its expert agent, George Clapperton.
The report makes a volume of 178 pages.
Mr. Clapperton says that he found the
general property tax system prevailing In
all the states, but that there are distinct
ive features in the various states which
are especially marked In the taxation of
corporate property. He does not indorse
the system of levying a fixed rate upon
net earnings, which is In vogue in Dela
ware and "Virginia, finding that while the
system is theoretically satisfactory, it
"does not meet the varied business de
velopments of corporations." He also
finds the general property tax unsatisfac
tory. Upon the whole, Mr. Clapperton
concludes that an Income tax is the most
equitable, saying:
"There is a growing class of citizens
who receive large incomes or salaries and
enjoy all the advantages of society and
good government, who, though possessed
of abundant ability to pay 'taxes, are,
under existing systems, practically ex
empt from taxation or inadequately taxed.
This class is receiving and must continue
to receive especial attention in the re
vision or reformation of taxing systems
in the several states.,, The. deaif a, lim
ited supplementary state income tax is
growing in favor and coming to be more
generally regarded as a practical meas
ure under state supervision."
Chilean Claims Rejected.
WASHINGTON, March 27. The Chilean-
Claims "Commission promises to
break all records in the rejection of
claims. In all there were 18 claims pre
sented. 16 by the United States and two
by Chile, aggregating something over $3,
000.000. Of these, eight have been decided,
and the total allowances are $5000 against
Chile and $3000 against the United States.
One of the chief cases against Chile ln-
volved upward of $1,000,000. and its disal
lowance in toto makes an important re-
ductlpn in, the aggregate. The allowance
in-favor of the United States was that
for an American citizen arrested in Chile'
some 50 years ago. The allowance In fa
vor of Chile grew out of complications
,in one of the consular offices.
The most Important case is that of the
ship Itata, which, during1 the Chilean
troubles some years ago, left San Diego,
Cal., with alleged arms and contraband
goods on board. Chile has made a large
claim for this alleged breach of neutral
ity. The case will be about the last one
disposed of. It Is expected that two
months more will complete the work, and
that the final report and adjournment of
the commission will occur about May 27.
Census Frauds in Maryland.
WASHINGTON, March 27. Director
Merriam, of the Census Bureau, has re
ceived information of the arrest of three
additional persons In St. Mary's County,
Maryland, who, it is alleged, are impli
cated In the census frauds recently dis
covered in that county. Two of these
persons Joseph Chlng, a lawyer of 'Leon
ardstown, and an enumerator named Goy
ter were brought to Baltimore this morn
ing. The- charge against the former is that
of aiding and abetting enumerators to
make fictitious returns of the population,
while that against the latter is padding
returns. The Investigation, the Director
says, shows that Goyter had returned 198
more persons than were In his district.
The two men were released on $1500 ball
each. Another enumerator, Bowles, was
arrested in St. Mary's County, but appar
ently has not yet been brought to Balti
more. Yellow Fever in Cuba and Mexico.
WASHINGTON, March 27. The Marine
Hospital Service has advices from Vera
Cruz, Mex., showing that yellow fever is
reported on the Isthmus of Tehuantcpec
Chief Sanitary Officer Gorgas reports to
the War Department that the death rate
in Cuba is steadily decreasing. The
deaths in February were very much few
er than during any February since 1E90,
and actually less than any month of the
preceding 12 years. The last February of
Spanish rule, 1S9S, showed a death rate
of over S2 to every 1000 people. The death
rate for February, 1901, is over 19. This,
the report says, places Havana In the
class of healthy cities of the world.
Many of the cities of the United States
and Europe have a higher mortality rate.
There were eight new cases of yellow
fever, against 17 in the previous February.
Spanish War Claims.
WASHINGTON, March 27. The Spanish
War Claims Commission, of which ex
Senator Chandler Is -president, has re
ceived from the State Department a full
list of the claims against Spain growing
out of the Insurrection in Cuba, which
were filed In the department up to the
13th of the present month. These claims
are all those of American citizens, for un
der the treaty of Paris the Governments
of the United States and Spain undertook
to adjust claims of their own citizens. The
grand total of these claims is about $30,
000.000, and Included in the list are five
claims in excess of $1,000,000. The largest
single claim is that of John W. Brock,
on account of property losses, estimated
at $2,162,514. Mrs. Ruiz, widow of the
dentist who was killed In a Havana prison,
is a claimant for $75,000.
Navy-Yard Employes Organize.
NEW YORK, March 27. A co-operative
organization of navy-yard employes has
been formed at the Brooklyn navy-yard,
which its promoters believe will extend
to other navy-yards and become a power
for securing work for yard employes In
the future. The organization, which has
been named the Society of Ship and Ma
rine. Engine Builders, was formed at a
meftlngof the navy-yard employes' asso
ciation. The primary object of the new
organization, which it is aimed to make a
National one, is to influence Congress to
provide that some of the Navy's ship
building be done at the navy-yards. The
formation of the new organization prac
tically does away with the local asso
ciation, the objects of which were very
much the same.

that the only complaint he had to make
was that the Americans were not follow
ing ihe treaty wholly. One particular In
stance which he cited was the trying of
natives arrested for piracy by Americans,
these cases having been sent to a Judge
or military officer, while In other crim
inal cases the defendants had been sent
to the Datos or the Sultan for trial. The
commission directed the Sultan to make a
complaint In writing. The Sultan really
has no system of government, though he
maintains the form and ceremony of one.
The Sultan collects fines and assess
ments, but the Datos, who arc hereditary
officials, more nearly control the people.
The public places are crowded with
Americans, natives and other. Orientals,
and native and Chinese performances are
given In honor of the commission. The
Sultan will not appear at any of the
performances, and Is apparently backward
In taking part in ceremonies in honor of
the Commissioners. Military officials here
say that It would be better If the treaty
with the Sultan of Sulu should define his
rights In detail.

ANARCHY WILL RESULT.
Congressman Warner Opposed to
Withdrawing From Cuba.
NEW YORK, March 27. Representative
Vespasian Warner, of Illinois, who has
just returned from an extended tour
through Cuba, believes that the constitu
tional convention will accept the Piatt
amendment, says a Washington special
to the World. Continuing, Mr. Warner
said:
"Wo must, of course, turn the Island
over to the Cubans, but It Is a crime
against humanity to withdraw at this
time. When our troops leave the island
you will witness a reign of lawlessness
that will startle the world and compel
us. In the name of justice, to take mat
ters Into our own hands. The Cubans
will sign anything or do anything to get
us away from their property, and when
they have the reins In their own hands,
you can expect the worst. From what I
can learn, -they will assess everybody
with any money and have a division of
the spoils. They will drive all Spaniards
and American sympathizers from the Isl
and, and for a brief period will revel In
loot. Law and order will become a mock
ery, and a state of anarchy will reign.
It is foolishness to talk of the Cubans
governing themselves at this time, or for
years to come.The Island must become
ours eventually, and It seems a shame
to undo all the progress made In two
years. As It will be, we shall have to In
tervene within 90 days and set up a pro
tectorate again to begin the work of re
construction anew."

The Well-Known Kansas Statesman Cured of
Catarrh of the Stomach by Pe-ru-na
AFTER TWENTY -FIVE YEARS' SUFFERING 7
More Evidence of Interest to the Millions of Catarrh
Sufferers in the United States.
HON. J. D. BOTKIH, C0NGRES5MAN-AT-LARQE FROM KANSAS.
In a recent letter to Dr. Hartman, C ongressman Botkln, of Wlnfleld, Kan.,
whose fame Is a national one, says oX Pe runa:
My Dear Doctor "It gives me pleasure to certify te the excellent curative
qualities of your medicines Peruna and Vlanalln. I have bsen afflicted more
or less for a quarter of a century with catarrh of the stomach and constipation.
Aresldence In Washington has Increased these troubles. A few bottles of your
medicine have rjlvcn me almost complete relief, and I am sure that a continua
tion of them will effect a permanent cure. Peruna Is surely a. wonderful rem
edy for catarrhal affections." J. D. Botkln, Congressman-at-Large.
Congressman Botkin s one ofthe most
Influential ' ana best-known men" In the
State of Kansas. Whatever he 'may say
on any subject "will be accepted by the
people as the truth. So famous a rem
edy as Peruna could not have well es
caped the attention of so famous a man.
He not only has heard of the remedy,
but he has used it, and was relieved of an
affliction of 25 years standing. Peruna Is
the one Internal remedy that cures chron
ic catarrh. It cures catarrh wherever
located. This is a faqt that the people
are rapidly finding out, but there are
still a large multitude who need to know
it.
Mr. Frank Rlchter, of Winona, Minn.,
says in a letter to The Peruna Medicine
Company:
"As a remedy for catarrh I take plea
sure In recommending Peruna for catarrh
of the stomach. I know what' It Is to be
afflicted with this awful disease and con
sider it my duty to say a word In be
half of the remedy which gave me such
relief. Peruna cured me. and T know It
will cure any one else who suffers from
this disease. It gives me great pleasure
to testify to the curative effects of this
medicine. Peruna Is a well-tested and
frequently used remedy, and for catarrh
of the stomach it Is unsurpassed.
"My catarrh was principally located in
my head and stomach. I tried many
remedies without success. I tried soverar
doctors but they were unable to cure me.
I read of Peruna In the papers and Ave
bottles cured me." Frank Rlchter.
The gastric juice Is secreted by the mu
cous follicles of the stomach. When this 1
julce Is normal It digests (dissolves) the
food without producing any disturbance
whatever. If, however, the gastric juice
Is not normal, digestion causes many dis
agreeable symptoms. This condition Is
known as indigestion. Peruna will uure
this.
cerned, Is no more. Governor Odell last
night signed the bill changing the name
from Sing Sing to Ossinlng. The name
Sing Sing had become synonymous with
the prison, and the outelde world looked
upon the village as merely a penal colony.
Manufacturers could not be Induced to go
there, owing to the fact that the im
pression had become general that all
goqds manufactured at Sing Sing we're
"prison-made goods." Other villages In
Westchester County, during the last 10
years, have shown the largest Increase
In the history of the census bureau, but t
Sing Sing village showed a decrease of
1313. These conditions aroused the people
and resulted in the petition to the Legis
lature for the change of name.
