3Iuch on Contracts.
PHILADELPHIA. Aug. 14. Investiga
tion of clothing and other contracts at the
Sohuylklll arsenal, one of .the supply de
pots of the United States Army, which
was begun last week by Major Frederick
Strong, of the Inspector-General's depart-
ment. was continued today.
There has been considerable trouble at
the arsenal lor some time, and frequent
charges have been made that the Govern
"ment was being defrauded out of thou
sands of dollars through the furnishing
of inferior goods by certain contractors
fr th inmilrv has been confined to I
the contracts for furs.
Among those examined by Major Strong
today were Robert Charlton and E. C.
Beckett, assistant inspectors at the ar-
senal. Charlton testified that he never
passed goods that were not up to tho
RnoPlfirat niu. He snld that no naa Deen i
offered bribes several times by contrac
tors, but had refused them.
Beckett said he had frequently put his
stamp of approval on goods which he
knew should have been marked inferior.
He did this, he said, by orders of his su
periors. TERMS ON THREE POINTS

reading has produced here. If they are
not modified, especially in the matters of
indemnity and territorial concessions,
peace, it is though-t, is impossible and
the continuance of the negotiations use
loss. Russia is honestly and sincerely
desirous of securing an honorable and
lasting peace and to this -end has sent
her plenipotentiaries to Portsmouth. They
did not journey thither merely to learn
the Japanese demands the nature of their
credentials proves that but they went in
an oarnest endeavor to do everything pos
sible to terminate the war in a manner
compatible with the dignity of a great
nation.
"The Japanoee terms are regarded in
Russia as demands which might be made
upon an utterly crushed and powerless
enemy, but it is absurd to propose them
to a power like Russia, which has half
a million men in' the field facing the en
omy. This army is in good condition and
eager for action. It possesses many ad
vantages of position and the Winter is
coming on. when naval operations woiiM
Te impossible. Vladivostok 4s also splen
didly fortified and supplied. Japan, as
well as the world at large, has persistent
ly under-estimated Russia's strength in
the field and her financial resources at
home.
"The 'more hopeful feollng which is
noticeable here can be traced to the con
viction that Mr. Wltte. who is thoroughly
cognizant of the viewsof the Russian
government, would not continue negotia
tions at Portsmouth unless he had reason
to believe that Japan would reduce her
demands sufficiently to render them ac
ceptable to Russia, The Russian envoys
wont to Portsmouth ready to make rea
sonable and honorable concessions. and, if
peace is to result, Japan is expected to
show a spirit of reasonableness and sin
cerity in hor protestations for peace. Rus-
sla believes that the world will recognize J
that the fault, in the case of failure, will I
not rest with Russia."
WHY
JAPAN IS SECRETIVE
Russian- Says Its Her Nature, Oth
ers Say It Is Caution.
PORTSMOUTH, N. H., Aug. 14. M.
Pokotlloff, the Russian, Minister to
China, who, it is understood, . has been
brought here to consult relative to the
Manchurian situation, feels a contempt
for the Japanese that he makes no at
tempt to hide.
"I don't take any Stock," he said, "in
the notion that the Japanose are se-
oretive because they want to conceal
their plans. They are & secretive peo-
pie and they were secretive In dealing
n-lth the outside world all through the
-war. If they are uncommunicative
now about their proposals, it is not, I
believe, due to any special reason, but
only to the general reason."
"What, then," he was asked, "do you
think of the opinion that Mr. Wltte
has uttered on- the subject of Japan's
' making Corca a Chinese -province, for
example."
We.". replied M. Pokotlloff, "I have

ENVOYS LOADED WITH ADVICE
Peace Advocates and Cranks of All
jations u rite Letters.
PORTSMOUTH. Aug. 14.-The peace
plenipotentiaries have been fairly deluged
with mall from all parts of the United
States, and now letters are beginning to
arrive from other hemispheres. Letters
K,. n Th- OM of .r.
rfRrintion,-frlendlv tenders of ad-lr r-
gardlng the negotiations, with requests for
autographs and photographs, words of
welcome, of praise, advertisements and
invitations to various cities of the United
States.
The majority, so far as the negotiations
are concerned, only express the hopes of
the world for peace. Numerous are the
letters from pastors of churches, tolling
of prayers for peace. Then there are the
usual crank letters. No threat of a seri
ous nature has been received either by
Baron Komura or M. Wltte.
While at the hotel. Baron Rosen ls tho
only one of the envoys who mingles freely
with the hotel guests, although ho knows
few of them. The Ambassador selects a

ARMISTICE TACITLY EXISTS
Should Peace Negotiations Pail, Bat
tle Would Immediately Follow.
PORTSMOUTH. N. H-. Aug. 14. It
seems to bo taken for granted among the
attaches of both the Japanese and Rus
sian missions that there will be .no gen
eral battle in Manchuria, while the peace
negotiations are on. Oyama is prepared
to strike the moment the negotiations
fall and here may be more or less out
post engagements while the troops are
getting in position, but it is admitted on
each side that if either Oyama or Linie
vitch should deliberately bring on a gen
oral engagement which might cost oO.OOD
or 100,000 lives, his country would be 'ac
cused of bad faith in the negotiations
hore and would Inevitably lose prestige
in the eyes of the world.
In the larger sense, therefore. It can be
said that an armistice already exists In
Manchuria. Should the negotiations be
vainly prolonged and It become evident
that they were to be fruitless, the ad
vance of Oyama or Unlevitch might be
the signal for the final rupture. The un
expected attack on Port Arthur might be
repoatcd below Harbin.
JAPANESE 3IONROE DOCTRINE
Correspondents From Nippon Confi
dent of Result of Conference.
"A treaty of peace will be signed and
a Japanese Monroe doctrine will be es-
laWlshed in the Far East."
This is hc opinion expressed today by
Kaju Nakamura. editor of the New York
Japanese - American Commercial Weekly.
Exactly similar conclusions have been
reached by M. Fukutomi. correspondent
of the Osaki Asahi Shimbun. the most in-
-"m"1"-
roura and Mr. Fukutomi consider the
Japanese terms, so far as they are known,
very moderate, and belleva that Russia
will eventually agree to them. They ad
mit that the Japanese may make some
concessions, but insist that these will be
comparatively unimportant.'

TYPHOID IN WASHINGTON
Many New Cases and Rapid Spread
Due to Bad Water. .
WASHINGTON. . Aug. 14. Twenty
nine new oases of typhoid fever and
two deaths from the disoase were re
ported to the health officers today. The
outbreak has passed In severity that
of 1108, when the greatest number of
porsons under treatmont for the dis
ease at any one time was 224, and It
had spread rapidly. Health officials arc
bonding every effort to fight the dls-
ease, including a house-to-house in-
spoction of back yards and cellars with
a view to remedying unsanitary con-
ditions.
One bedv of the new filtration plant
will be opened probably tomorrow,
thus reducing to that extent the dan
ger from typhoid fever and other dis
ease germs which. It is believed, comes
from drinking unfllterod water.

NEW YORK. Aug. 14. The care, of
2.O0O employes to work upon the Pan
ama Canal was declared by Chairman
Shonts. of the Panama Canal Commis
sion, who arrived on the stcamor Mex
ico today from Colon, to be of the first
importance and to have precedence
over the actual work of digging.
Mr. Shonts said that there was in
reality no yellow fever scare to speak
of at the Isthmus, and that the total
number of cases In Panama during-August
up to the time of his sailing was
only 3ft. 31 r. Shonts was accompanied on
his return by Oswald H. Ernest, also of

hold of the canal every effort was dl
rected toward making the dirt fly. I
think this was a mistake. Time should
have been given toward preparing for
the task by making- arrangements to
take care of omploye. It is true also
that the laborers were not promptly
paid and that matters were becoming
congested on the railways and steam
ers. "The people of the Isthmus are not
forehanded, and with the large addition
to the population caused by the Influx
of canal laborers the supplies ior iiv
ing were exhausted. This caused prices!
to rise, and soon the laboring ciass
found that they could not earn enough
to support themselves. To offset this
sub-commissary stations were estab
lished to feed the laborers
"I made an arrangement with the
President of Panama. that unless
prlcos became normal on the Isthmus,
to continue this system of supplying
the laborers. At Colon a large re
frigerating plant is now being estab
lished, from which all supplies will
be issued promptly, so that shortly all
American employos will be able to ob
tain the same fare as they would at
home.
"Of course. I found the freight con
gestion causing considerable trouble,
but soon found that by applying thouo
practical, up-to-date railroad metnods

trouble would be eliminated. There is

that cannot be done at present, even if
necessary, but as the work of getting

CORDIAL jNVITATION
ADDRESSED TO WORKING GIRLS
Mis3 Borrows Tells How Mrs. Pink
ham's Advico Helps "Working: Girls
Girls who worlc

and she is often the bread-winner of
the family. Whether she is sick or
well, whether it rains or shines, she
must pet to her place of employment,
perform the duties exacted of her
jimue and be agreeable.
Among- this class the symptoms of
female diseases are early manifest by
weak and aching- backs, pain in the
lower limbs and lower part of tho
stomach. In consequence of frequent
wetting of the feet, monthly periods
become painful and irregular, and fre
quently there are faint and dizzy spells,
with loss of appetite, until lffe is a
burden. All of these symptoms point
to a derangement of the female organ
Ism which can bo easily and promptly
cured by Lydia B. Pinkham's Vegeta
ble Compound.
Miss Abby P. Barrows, Nelsonville,
Athens Co., Ohio, tells what this great
medicine did for her. She writes :
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:
"I feel It my duty to tell you the good
Lydia R. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
and Blood Purifier have done for me. Before
I took them I was very nervous, had dull
headaches, pains in back, and monthlies were
irregular, I had been to several doctors, and
fcheydid me no good.
"Your medicine has made me well and
itrong. I can do most any kind of work
without complaint, and my periods are all
right.
"I am in better health than I ever was,
ind I know it is all due to your remedies. I
recommend your advice and medicine to all
who suffer."
It is to such girls that Mrs. Pink
hnm holds out a helping hand and ex
tends a cordial invitatio to correspond
with her. Her long record of success
in treating woman's ills makes her let
ters of advice of untold value to every
ailing working girl, and from her wide
sxperience and skill she quickly points
the way to health. Her advice is free,
and all letters are held by her ia
the strictest confidence. Address, Mrs.
