"Taking the value of the raw cano neces sary to mnko the 100 pounds of refined , 1. o. , $3.17 , the duty of 40 per cent amounts to $ l.2C8. The refined , costing J3.37 per 100 pounds , at 40 per cent , pays a duty of $1.348 , nnd consequently leaves the American re finer 8 cents per 100 pounds protection aa a result of the straight ad valorem rate on raw and refined sugars. Adding to this tbo one-eighth of a cent per pound gives a total of 20'/4 ' cents per 100 pounds protection under the senate bill , against one-fifth of a cent a pound , or 20 cents per 100 pounds as now proponed. " INDIAN HGIlOOli SCANDAL. Itov. Burner , Former Superintendent of the I'errln School , n Fugitive. WASHINGTON , Aug. 4. The Investigation of the Perrls Indian school In California has resulted In charges of gross rascality and frauds perpetrated on the government by Rev. M. H. Savage , a former superintendent. The charges are made In the reports of Gen eral Frank Armstrong , assistant commis sioner of Indian affairs , and of Special Agent Bholby , who have Just completed the In vestigation. "Sufficient facts have been shown , " says General Armstrong In his report , "to land Savage In the state prison. This should bo done It he can bo caught. I think ho has escaped to Mexico , and ho should bo followed -up nnd an , example made of him , If he can be extradited. From the first transaction three or four years ago to the day ho left ho was In some way defrauding the govern ment. Ho stole at least one-third of all the money reported by him as disbursed for the school. " The Investlcatlon was commenced some time ago , but the charges wore not made publlo until today. In some way Savage obtained knowledge of the action of the bureau , and he left on Juno 13 for parts un known. It Is thought , however , that ho Is In Mexico , and a search Is being made , and If caught , efforts will bo made by the De partment of Justice for his extradition. The Treasury department has been notified that Savage's accounts for two years back have been Incorrect. Investigation will also probably be made of the Fort Shaw and Chlllocco schools , care ful examination by an Inspector and special agent having been suggested In an official report. General Armstrong In making his report recommends that every open market purchase be carefully looked Into and traced and that clerks for nil bonded schools bo appointed by the Indian office and that no superintendent be allowed to employ as clerk any member of his family. He asserts that he Is convinced that there Is moro rascality In bonded schools than In any other branch of the Indian service , and that very few bonded schools are free from fraud and cor ruption. WILL 0 TO TUB COURTS. Efforts Will Ho Muclo to Tihor.tt General Kzota on Huhens Corpus. WASHINGTON , Aug. 4. Ex-Governor Campbell of Ohio has left Washington , hav ing surrendered his position as counsel for General Antonio Ezeta and staff , the Salva dorean refugees now aboard the United States steamship Bennlngton enroute to San Francisco. It Is expected counsel will be engaged at San Francisco to sue out a writ of habeas corpus as soon as the vessel ar rives within the Jurisdiction of the courts. Doubtless Dr. Guzman , the new Salvadorean minister , also will have counsel on hand to serve the extradition warrants , for which application has been made to the State de partment , and thus the matter will bo set tled judicially on Its merits , to the relief" of the State and Navy departments , which have found Ezeta to bo a white elephant on their hands. The charge upon which special reliance will bo placed by the Salvadorean government In Us application for Ezeta's * extradition Is that he robbed banks , but aa. the general will contend the money was taken as a "forced loan , " well known In Central American practice , and was applied to meet war expenses , It probably will beheld hold that the offense was political and there fore that Ezeta Is not subject to extradition. This has been the attitude of the State department - > partment towards this question , and at pres ent It would rather welcome a judicial de termination of the case. SENT HACK TO CONFKKKNCE.

SOLONS DIFFER ONLY AS TO METHODS All Agreed They Should No Longer He Allowed to Come In lllvcr nnd Harbor 11111 Stnt Hack to Conference to Cor rect Errors In Kngrosslng. WASHINGTON , Aug. 4. The senate held a short session , the conference report on the river and harbor bill , for the considera tion of which It met today , having been temporarily withdrawn. In lieu of this private pension bills on the calendar were called up and thirty-seven passed , Including ono Increasing to $100 a month the pension paid the widow of General Abnor Doubleday - day , and another granting a pension to the widow of the Arctic explorer , Lieutenant Frederick Schwatka. Several other bills were passed , the two principal being a senate bill to amend the quarantine regulations so far as they apply to vessels plying between United States ports and foreign ports on or near the frontier , and a house bill to subject to state taxation national bank notes and United States notes. The bill for the exclusion nnd deportation of anarchists was taken up nnd discussed nnd then went over until Monday. The conference report on the river and harbor bill , which was presented by Mr. Dolph Just before adjournment , yesterday , was withdrawn at Mr. Dolph's request and the bill sent back to conference to correct errors In the engrossment of the bill. The bill to subject to state taxation na tional bank notes and United States treasury notes was taken up and after amendment was passed. As passed the bill provides that circulated notes of national banking associa tions and United States legal tender notes and other notes and certificates of the United States payable on demand and cir culating or Intended to circulate as cur rency , and gold and sliver or other coin shall bo subject to taxation as money on hand or on deposit under the laws of any state or territory , provided that any such taxation shall be exercised In the same man ner and at the same rate that any such state or territory shall tax money or paper circulated as money within Its jurisdiction. The provisions of this act are not to be deemed or held to change existing laws In respect of the taxation of national banking associations. . An amicable arrangement was then en tered Into by which ono hour was to bo given to consideration of pension cases , after which the bill of Mr. Hill to prevent the admittance of anarchists should bo consid ered , but Mr. Allen threw a temporary wet blanket on the arrangement by Insist ing on the regular ordsr. The senate finally proceeded to consider pension cases. Among the private bills passed was a senate bill granting a pension of $100 a month to the widow of General Abner Doubleday. House bills were passed , making the city of Oakland , Cal. , a subport of entry , for the relief of the estate of Walter S. McLean , ssnate bill for the relief of George H. Plant , house bill for the relief of Benjamin Alvord and senate resolution for the relief of W. D. Mack. t BILL TO EXCLUDE ANARCHISTS. In accordance with the agreement reached the bill reported yesterday by Mr. Hill of New York providing for the Inspection of Immigrants by United States consuls and for the exclusion of anarchists was taken up. Mr. Peffer , while unwilling to raise the point of no quorum against the bill , thought such an Important measure should have a full senate and ho therefore suggested It go over until Monday. Mr. Hill , however , asked that It bo considered today , though a veto need not bo taken on It and this was agreed to. Mr. Chandler favored the house bill rather than the senate substitute , because It was simpler and smaller and yet made the ex hibition of certificate of a United States consul by every Immigrant obligatory. If he had his way , he would pass the house bill today and send It to the president for his signature , although It had arrayed against It all the steamship companies carrying Immi grants and the secretaries of state and treas ury , as well as the commissioner of Immi gration.The 'houso plan , he thought , which provided for consuls' certificates , was much to bo preferred to the senate plan for plac ing treasury Inspectors on the European docks to Inspect Intending Immigrants. Moreover , he was convinced that such treas ury agents would have no status on European docks except on the Invitation of the European governments , though this diffi culty might be obviated by making them of ficials of the State department. He thought the four sections of the bill against anarchy could be passed without objection and he suggested that these four sections providing for the exclusion of anarchists , but admit ting the section relative to the appointment of immigrant Inspectors , If drafted into a bill , would pass both houses this" session. lie accordingly offered such a bill as a sub- stltuto and had It go over until Monday. Mr. Hill , who had charge of the. bill , did not wish to reply today , but reserved his speech until Monday. At 2:15 o'clock the senate went Into exec utive session and five minutes later ad journed. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ HAWAIIAN HECOUMTION SKT A&IUK. Jloiitelle'8 ItcBolutlou Curried Over Until Next Thursday. WASHINGTON , Aug. 4.The resolution for the recognition of the Hawaiian republic Introduced In the house by Mr. Boutello was sidetracked by the committee on foreign affairs today. After a two hours' discus sion of the question the democrats carried a motion to adjourn by a party vote , ex cept for the position taken by Mr. Geary of California , who -again stood with the re publicans in favor of recognition. The ad journment carries the question over to the next regular meeting next Thursday. Mr. Geary furnished the most Interesting passage of the discussion today , as he did' at the first meeting. Ho Informed his democratic colleagues frankly that Mr. Boutello had Introduced the resolution hoping nnd expecting'the democrats would reject It. For one , he did hot propose to further Mr , Boutelle's scheme- furnish the repub licans with campaign material. "Wo might as well admit the democratic party has blundered In Us treatment of this Hawaiian question , " said Mr. Geary , "and wo cannot afford to make another blunder. " He de clared the democratic record upon the ques tion was exceedingly unpopular In his state , that the people were all opposed to the presi dent's course , and 4bat it was a very hard question for democratic congressmen from California to"mect nnd explain. Ho would refuse to be a party to another blunder. When he hnd finished , Mr. Van Voorhls of Now York , who had made the motion to report the resolution , rose to say ho en dorsed what Mr. Geary had said about demo cratic blunders , and supposed another blun der would bo made by tabling the resolu tion. UUKIN : I.II.IUOKAI.AM HNDIIIIHD. Her L'onimUsloner * In Washington Not ICou- ogntzod by Seerutury ( ironlniin. WASHINGTON , Aug. 4. H. A. Wldeman , ono of the three Hawaiian royalist commis sioners now In Washington , called at the State department today and had a half-hour Interview with Secretary Oresham. The call was purely Informal , In fact' It could not have been otherwise , aa the commis sioners , being unprovided with credentials from any recognized government , can have no formal standing before the State de partment. The secretary questioned the commissioner closely as to the authority by which ho appeared , what the commission was doing hero and as to Hawaiian affairs generally. To nil of these questions Mr. Wtdeman responded freely and among other things disabused the secretary's mind of the Impression that the commission was seeking to Influence congress In the ex- queen's favor. The Interview wns character- lied by the , best of feeling , but when the commissioner left It waa not known whether he would call again , and as ho had been given to understand that the commission cannot be dealt with officially by the de partment there Is ground for the presump tion that the mission Is at an end.

Midi Till ! rnANCO-l'llCSSlAN WAIl. tlupnn'g Action nn Kzpcdlcut to Henl / > li- Brnslon ut Home. CHICAGO , Aug. 4. Prof. E. Warren Clark , who went from Albany , N. Y. , to Japan at the Invitation of Katsu , the admiral of the Japanese navy , to establish two scientific schools on the American plan , has some Interesting Ideas regarding the China-Japan war. Prof , Clark says the war , so far as Japan Is concerned , Is a counterpart of the Franco-Prussian war ; Napoleon III. was a long whllo seeking some cause of war with Germany as a device for healing the internal dissensions of his own country , which at last reached an acute stage and demanded a foreign war as the only possible means of unifying once moro the French people. It Is precisely for the same reason and with the same Intent the Japanese emperor Is promoting with all his might a war with China over Corea. The traditional and In veterate hatred of the Japanese for the Chinese has been Invoked to euro a most dangerous movement at home. This dangerous dissensions In Japan concerns the foreigner. There has been going on In the country for several years a growing reaction against the progresslvcncss of Its rulers. There never was a country In tlio world but Japan which has undertaken and carried through so many radical reformations In such a short space of time. The drastic character of the reforms and the endless number of them have been a source of deepest misery to the masses and they have been carried out only by the most merciless application of brute force. The reaction has reached a stage where the stability of the govern ment Is threatened. Under the circum stances there Is nothing left the Japanese emperor but the Napoleonic expedient. KMTKItOU IbSUKS AN UUICT. All Chinese Forrcn I'hiccd Under the Au thority of LI HUMP Chung. LONDON , Aug. 4. A dispatch to the Times from Tlen-Tsln , dated August 2 (11:45 ( : n. m ) , says : The preamble of nn Imperial edict , Just Issued , recites China's claims In Corea ; Its hundreds of years suzerainty of that country , and the constant assistance It has rendered the vassal king to subdue rebellions. China , It continues , recently sent forces to Coreaf with this object In view. Japan , without right , also sent troops and refused to withdraw them. She has , further , sunk a transport carrying Chinese soldiers and her action has been condemned by other powers. The emperor places all the military authorities under Viceroy LI Hung Chang , who will protect the rights of the empire. He also orders the capture nnd destruction of Japanese ships wherever found. It Is probable that a copy of the edict will be communicated to the representatives of foreign powers today. KNQI.AND SKNIHNG MUNITIONS OF WAIt I.IUTB of Neutrality Flagrantly Ilrokon In Splto of Orders to the Contrary. LONDON , Aug , 4. In spite of the In structions sent to Admiral Sir E. R. Fre- mantle. In command of the China station , not to allow British ships to carry war ma terial to either China or Japan It Is known that the Chinese minister Is busy here with the Armstrong-people of England , and. the Krupp concern of Germany. All parties having good , bad or Indifferent war material for sale are In negotiation with both the Chinese and Japanese representatives , and both coun tries are known to be placing large or ders. The Japanese , for Instance , expect to be able to dispatch a steamship full of war material from" England for Japan next week. It Is stated that this furnishing of muni tions of war to Japan and China Is a clear violation of the laws of neutrality. \ muTisu riusoNKits TO DE GIVEN ur.

The ChronlclO says : Although tlm claim of the United Stales against 'the Lelaml Stanford estate for $16,000,000Uoca not Income duo" until January 1C , 1895 , there la every reason lo bellovo that proceedings In the state courts to collect the alleged Indebtedness will be commenced at a much earlier date. The suit has put a cloud on the title of every portion of the valuable estate , therd to remain until the legality of the claim has been passed upon by the court , or until the time for commencing an action for en forcing Its collection has passed , and the right for such suit lost. When a few days ago Mrs , Stanford , by her attorneys , notified the government that the claim against the estate had been re jected , It was generally believed that no further action would bo taken until the first bonds of the Central 1'acttlc company had become due. Until that tlmo the govern ment would have no legal right to enforce Us claims. Since that tlmo , however , It Is said that Mrs. Stanford has submitted to the United States , through Its representative , District Attorney Charles A. Garter , a propo sition for a friendly suit. The government is asked to bring Its suit without waiting until January 16 , 1S05 , when a portion of the claim will be due. In the event of this proposition being found agreeable , the administrators of the estate will waive the right to objection on the grounds that the claim Is not due. This will bo to all Intents and' purposes a suit to quiet title. The administrators arc exceed ingly nnxlous to have the matter cleared up. Mrs. Stanford and her attorneys are confi dent that the government's claim Is wholly unfounded , and that a Judgment In Its favor will never be granted. Therefore , the pros pect for a long delay In the settlement and distribution of the dead senator's estate Is not Inviting , and will bo prevented If such a thing Is possible. The sequestration of an amount sufficient to meet the government's claim would mean the swallowing upof the entire estate , and will be fought vigorously. The distribution of the estate cannot take placa until all the Claims against It have been settled and It has been determined whether there Is a sufficiency to meet all claims. SECOND ATTEMPT FAILS.

ARE PUTTING MEN TO WORK Packing House Mnnrgors Have Emplojcd Forces Sent from Lincoln , COMPARATIVELY FEW HIRED AS YET Tomorrow the I.nut Day When Strllter § Miiy Itotlirn to Their Vlncon-Iloth Hlileit StiiiiilliiK Finn Kvonln of Vtstcnluy. The largest crowd that has been on the streets of Soulh Omaha since the strike began was out last night. There were one or two scraps , but the police did not ntako any ar rests. Mayor Johnston arrived homo last evening and the first order ho gave to Chief Brun- imn was to sco that all the saloons were closed today , Recently a resolution was adopted , recommending that the major close all of the saloons until after the strike Is over. Mr. J. H. Van Dusen was Instructed to submit the proposition. Mayor Johnston , In speaking of the matter , said ho would cer tainly close them on Sunday , and , If there proved to bo any necessity for It , ho would close them on week days also. The executive committee met again last night , but the members said they had done nothing to glvo out. Another meeting wjll be held at 2 o'clock tomorrow. "You can safely say that none of the beet butchers will go back to work at the old scale , " said a member of that union. "Wo have been getting 40 cents nn hour and have struck for 45. Kansas City ami St. Louis beef butchers will come out. If that scale Is not paid. " There was talk last night that some of the men In the other departments Intended going to work Monday morning , but that the boot butchers would not do another tap of work until tholr demands were acceded to. The gang that came from Lincoln was escorted from the B , & M. tracks to the packing house by regular nnd special policemen. The train stopped to let them off out near the Heine of the Good Shepherd. None of the strikers knew they were hero until after they had gone to work. Quite a number of new men are now comfortably quartered In the different houses , where they will sleep and board until after the excitement dies away. Some anticipate trouble on Monday , but ample arrangements huvo been made for police protection. Fifty men left Lincoln at 2:20 : o'clock U take the places of the striking butchers at South Omaha and others will bo sent there If the men who are now out do not agree to return to work on Monday morning. A iihort notice In the local papers at Lin coln signed by M. D. Welsh , becretary of the Western Manufacturing company , asked for fitly able-bodied men who were willing to work for $ l.riO a day to meet him at the Young Men's Christian association building at S o'clock yesterday morning. Two hundred men responded and the fifty were selected In twenty-five minutes. These men are to take the places of the strikers In South Oninlm. Mr. Welsh was In Soutl Omaha Friday and Is recruiting the mei In response to the request of the packers Ho Is now waiting for a reply to a telegram to the packers as to the number of iricn they want. A detachment of fifty or moro left at 2:30 : o'clock yesterday and reachei South Omaha about 4. Others will betaken taken down as the packers want them am they will be on the ground ready to go to work providing the strike Is not settled by Monday morning. Mr. Welsh says ho can furnish all the men they want. EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEETS. The executive committee held a mectinp again yesterday. Word was recelve < from St. Louis to the effect that the butchers there were to g > out at noon , nnd at Kansas City the men were ready to go out at a moment's notice. This word was sent b > the special committee sent from South Omaha to Invnstlgate the situation. ' The butchers also held a meeting , but when they were througl they said they had nothing to give out for publication. It was learned that the prin cipal subject discussed was whether the men should go back to work or allow others to tnke their places. A meeting has been called for nil the men who went out at the Cudahy plant. Inas much as Cudahy docs not kill any cattle In Chicago , some of the butchers think It Is working an Injustice here to force- the Cud ahy men cut Six hundred men were taken Into the Federated Labor union Friday. All the laborers ask for an Increase In pay of 20 par cent. The majority of them were get ting ? l.fiO a day when they walked out. They claim that 20 per cent was knocked off UK.-lr pay last fall , and they want It put back now. Paul Martin , the saloon keeper , has been taken off the committee work , as he Is no longer In the packing house business. Mar tin Is president of the hog butchers union , but has not worked at the business for some time. The men claim that It Injuredlhelr cause to have a saloon keeper doing com mittee work. There arc all sorts of rumors afloat as to what Jhe' ; men and packers will do. Both are firm In their expressions as to what they Intend doing. The butchers say they will never go to work until they get what they want. On the other hand the packers have Issued a proclamation stating that nil men who do not report for duty Monday morning will be discharged , nnd that new men will bo given their places , Already , the packers have quite a force of new men In their houses. Arrangements have been made for them to sleep In the building , and the strikers would perhaps be surprised to sco the small army of workmen who arc accumu lating at the different plants. Adjutant General Qago was down yesterday morning looking over the situation. Ho did not say what he proposed to do In regard to calling out the mllltlu. While he was there the situation was extremely quiet. "I feel more encouraged today than nt any time since the strike began , " said Manager Tallaferro of the Omaha house. "A good many of our unskilled workmen have gene back to work , 'and wo are killing the same as usual today , I think that l > y Monday morning the majority of ( he old men will show up for work. " At Cudahy's they killed both cattle nnd hogs. The situation at Swift's and llnm- mends was about the uamn as Friday. Both hogs and cattle were killed In both houses. The receipts of hogs and cattle were light at the yards , but the market was nctlvo and higher. Notlru l > y the O , H. Iliininioml Company.
