Francisco, M a y 15.— A special
order has been issued by Adm iral
Thomas directed to the fleet captains
directing them to take every precaution
to prevent any etrangers from gaining
access to ths engine or fireroome o f
their ships.
The issuance o f the order has caused
a great deni of comment among the of­
ficers o f the fleet, as a general order is
already in force prohibiting strangers
from visiting the engine rooms.
That the government is in possession
o f information directly connected with
the issuance of the order ie the general
belief o f the officers. A feature o f the
fleet’s visit to this port /which hi
passed without notice until the present
order w ss issued ie the fact that not a
single Japanese has been aboard one of
tho ships sines the arrival ox thy fleet
here.
Taken in connection with tod ay’s or­
der, the sentiment is openly expressed
by a number o f the offieere that the
leaders o f the local Japanese colony,
knowing that the government w as ia
pomeeeion of information lending to the
belief that an attempt might be made
to injure some o f the ships, advised
their countrymen to keep aw ay from
the ships.

ance o f the order exeept that it is a
natural precautionary measure is given

Decatur, 111., M ay 16.— City authori­

Comptroller Bobbin« “ confessed” that
'he had been holding out on the city
revenue« for eieht years, and now has
$100,000 in a bank to the credit of the
city. N o one knew his secret but the
mayors who' have served in that time.
Robbins said he knew the aldermen
would spend the money if they bad it,
and he took it upon himself to save it
for a rainy day in the e ity ’s affairs,
or perhaps for a new city hall. The
aldermen, instead of being pleased, are
furious.
