ONLY ONE PROPOSAL IS SUBMITTED Berond Advertisement for Often Urine * but Ono AiiMvcrnnd tlmt U tlio Siiino \Vlilcli UK * IJcforo Itcjoctcd WASHINGTON , Nov. 7. ( Special Tele gram. ) Only ono contractor submitted n bid for the construction for a set of bachelor officers' quartern for eight officers nnd ono barrack wine for four companies nt Fort Crook. This bid was received at the offlce of the quartermaster general today. The name of this otic bidder would not be given out at the War department today , but It Is stated that ho Is the same bidder who sent In the only bid the last time- proposals were asked for. It will bo recalled that this contractor's proposal was rejected formerly on the ground of being excessive. This time he submits a bid similar to his former one and asking the same price for the work , so that the officials In the quartermaster general's offlce are someuhat In a quandary ns to what should bo dona In the matter. Quartermaster General Hatcheldor IB at present absent from the city and will not return till Friday next. It Is usually * the case to have such matters settled by the quartermaster gen eral himself , but It Is not Improbable that In this case the opinion of Depot Quarter master General Weeks will bo asked for and acted upon without waiting for the return of the quartermaster general. Captain Miller of the quartermaster gen eral's ' office today said : "It Is very remark able that such should bo the case. I cannot assign any reason why there should not have been more than ono bid received for this work. There are always nearly a score of contractors willing to propose for work of this kind at other posts. It Is also singu lar that this bid should come from the same contractor , who sent In a solitary bid bo- fore. I cannot say for sure whether or not similar action will bo taken this time and his bid rejected as being excessive. " If the matter Is not settled by Colonel Weeks It must await for the return of General Hatcheldor , and In that case It IB riot likely that an early settlement will bo had , COST OF nESUnVEYING.

Mr. UOWCPJ said that after a more critical examination of the bids had been made the contracts would be awarded. It Is the usual custom to award such contracts to various contractors In order that the work can be done more cxpcilltlously and there Is a possi bility that there will b ? ns many as seven different sarveys being made at the game time In th.s ca&e , one for each class of the work. work.ASKING ASKING FOU FtmNITURE BIDS.

WASHINGTON , Nov. 7.-The Associated press announcement that the German au thorities may conclude to determine the possibilities of the Introduction of Texas r fever Into the empire from expert opinions of American- veterinarians , which nre now being translated , was received with great Interest by Secretary Morton , whose ad vocacy of retaliation by requiring a strict Inspection of German wines nnd liquors hns been told In the dispatches. The secretary has lnvc9Usntecl the question and finds that authority to entirely exclude German prod ucts In retaliation for discrimination ngulnat American goods Is vested In the president by cxUtlnj ? laws , which have been heretofore overlooked In the discussion of tlio question. Secretary Morton had a con ference with the president and laid the law before him. It Is In the I'nlted States Statute at LntE ? , Vol. D , Fifty first congrtsa , pace 414 , chapter UK : "An act provid ing for an Inspection of mcnts for exporta tion ami prohibiting the importation aof adulterated articles of food or drink nnd authorizing the president to make n proclamation In certain cases and for other purposes. " Section 4 , to which the- secretary called the particular attention of both the United States authorities nnd those of the German empire , reads : "That whenever the presi dent Is sattBtled there Is good reason to believe any Importation la being made or IH about to beimida Into the United States from any county of any articles used for human food or drink that Is adulterated , he ( the president ) may Issue his proclamation prohibiting the Importation of ouch articles from Btirli country for such period of time as he may think necessary. " Section & says ; "When the president shall bo satisfied that unjust discriminations are made by or under the authority of any such government against the Importation Into ami sale of any product of the United States , he ( the president ) may direct that such products or such foreign Htatea , for discriminating auslnnt any product of the United States , na he shall deem proper , shall bo excluded from Importation Into the United Statee , and In such case ho ( the president ) shall make proclamation of his direction In the premises and therein name the time when nuch direction ngalnal Impor : > tation shall take effect , and after such ( lute the Importation of the articles named In such proclamation shall bo unlawful. The president may at any time revoke , modify , ) rrnlnate or renew any such direction as. In hlsopinion ( , the public Interest may re- The secretary believes this law Is life key to the situation , rurnfftTilntr this government with full power lo retaliate upon Germany 'for the exclusion of our cntUe. either by the policy , which he first i > ugtested. of requir ing a strict Inspection of their wines or by stronger measures. He said : "If neither Ger many nor Frnnre will take American porker or beef except with a government certlfln- cntlon nfl to Its wholesompnesi' , why should the United States take edibles or beverages from them without requiring likewise gov ernment certification of their absolute purity ami wholesomenesB ? " At the State department the attitude of the German government respecting our cat tle li regnnled tit the natural and proper outcome of ( he ntrong representations made by Minister Hunyon. The negotiations had reached n , point where each government was content to rest Its contentions upon questions of fact ; first , whether or not there were genuine cases of Texas fever among the cattle Imimrted Into Germany from the United States , nnd second , whether or not the illnense can be communi cated to German cattle. If , as stated In the dispatch , the German government hns so far receded from Its first pisltlon Justlly- Ing absolute exclusion of American cattle without reasonable proof upon these Im portant points then the State department olllclnls feel that our cattle shippers have little to fear nnd that the Gorman gnvern- mcn has nsaumcd a very liberal attitude and one which li likely lo cpeedlly result In the removal of the embargo.

For some reason the passenger train passed the siding. The mall car was reduced to kindling wood. Only the heavy vestibules of the passenger cars saved them from a similar fate. Fully a dozen cattle cars weru piled up on the track , killing anil maiming many of the Onmh biutes.

( Per steamer Del- glc , via San Francisco , Nov. 7. ) Since the sailing of the last American steamer the war has been devoid of exciting Incident In Japan. Public attention has been absorbed In the proceedings of the extra session of Parliament , which closed two days ago after passing legislation sanctioning the war , ex horting the government to spare no effort for the realization of the nation's hopes , and pledging the cordial support of the army and navy. The Nlchlnl , newspaper , scml- cinclal , announces on authority that the emperor has sanctioned a. wr expenditure of 44,292,497 yen for the army and 16,704,467 yen for the navy. The government has made use of 23,388,836 yen , leaving nearly 37,000,000 yen yet available. English newspapers In Japan have published a statement that the Japanese government has tendered an apology to Great Britain on account of the Kow Shlng affair , and promised to pay an In demnity of $75,000. The correspondent of the Associated press Is authorized to give an absolute denial to the story. Most of the Chinese prisoners captured at Phyong-Yanj ; have been brought to Japan and distributed In various parts of the country. Most of the prisoners were conducted to the lied Cross society hos pitals. They had expected to be tortured nnd butchered. Instead , they were thor oughly washed , greatly to the astonishment of the majority , given clean apparel and sup plied with wholesome food , on receiving which they shed tears profusely. After three days of good treatment In the hospitals many of them could scarcely bo recognized as the same beings , and the majority of them are now anxious to bo allowed to remain In Japan. Reports from China state that the remnants of Admiral Ting's fleet have been patched up and are nearly ready to try their fate again with the sea , but ominous mes sages are going to and from Port Arthur to the effect that If they venture forth It must be without proper provision of shot and shell for the big guns. So great has been the ras cality of high officials that the vast quan- titles of ammunition which were supposed - to be stored at the naval stations have about given out. Definite news Is at last received concerning the two Japanese students who were ar- rested as spies In Shanghai and surrendered to the Chinese by the consul general of the United States In obedience to Instructions from Secretary Grcsham. On October 8 they were decapitated at Nankin by order of the viceroy In the presence of all the high officials of that city and of a mob , which kept shrieking "Kill the foreign devils" from the moment the condemned men ap peared upon the execution ground until their heads fell. That the native authorities of Shanghai ere disposed to repeat these pro ceedings as often as they can Is ehown In attempts to get possession of Japanese trav- clers on the same pretext. Toward the end of last month they sent a body of guards on board an English ship and without a warrant seized a passenger on his way home to Yokohama , alleging that they acted with the knowledge and consent of the British consul general an assertion which has not been denied , and which gains some color from the Indifference of the , British local offi cials to the fact that t\vo other steamers under their Hag have been unlawfully boirded by Chinese soldiers and their Japanese nese- passengers brutally maltreated. These outrages occurred many weeks ago. and so far as Is known no reparation has been ex acted. In the case now referred to , the Intended victim a hurmloss t.ittslonaij escapsJ through the exertions oi t forelfin superintendent of police , who was deter mined to prevent the recurrence of an Ini quity like that which cost the two studim * thtlr lives.

The massive gilded cof fin containing the remains of Czar Alexander III was removed to the Byzantine church yesterday. There the body of the lats- czar will 1 lie In state unt.l tomorrow. At 0 o'clock In the evening the Cossacks , who had been acting ns the Imperial body guard , at tired In their long tunics with gold facings , took ( up their positions along the cypres- strewn route from the palace , all carrying 1 ghted torches , making a weird scene. The procession of white-robed clergy then emerged fiom the church and formed In line across the road. The bells began to ring soon after ward. The sound of children singing hymns was heard In the distance. Then through the darkness the glare of the torches carried by thu guards marching on cither side of the coffin could be perceived. A than ) word of command , "present arms , " broke the solemn silence , and amid the muffled rolling of many drums , the procession entered the church path , headed by sailors carrying lanterns end banners and followed by the choir of children , dressed In white surplices. They were followed by the clergy and then came the coffin , surmounted by the Imperial crown and borne by Cossacks. Behind tlo ) cofQn' were the czar and czarina , who was deeply veiled ; the Grand Dukes Serglus and Vladimir , the queen of Greece and Princess Allx of Hesse , the princess of Wales and the duchess of Saxe-Coburg Gotha , the children belonging to the Imperial and royal families and the high court and military . otflcers. The Cossacks placed the coffin In front of the church ns the military band played "How Great and Glorious IB God In Zlon , " all present standing with uncovered heads. After the hymn the coffin was borne Into the church and laid on the bier. When the mourners were arranged nround the bier the b shop of Simferopol celebrated mass , after which the party left the church and1 returned to the palace In carriages. righting for Amor Iran Cuttle.
