that Here They Mast Become ..
American C'ltlsens.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 21. The Canadian
Doukhobors have sought a home in this
country, but have been officially notified
that they cannot settle on government do
main. The community, represented by Ivan Pon
omareft and others, wrote to the presi
dent asking for a refuge in the United
States. The letter wss referred to the
Interior department and now the assist
ant commissioner of the general land office
has forwarded a reply announcing that they
cannot locate on the public lands ot the
United 8tates.
Mr. Richards says: ,
Tou say your community numbers mors
than 7.000 and that In 1898 and 1SH9 you
emigrated from Russia to Canada because
the Russian government would not permit
you to liva according to the dictates of
your religion. You have discovered that
although In Canada there Is religious free
dom, still It is not what you were In search
of; that you yield obedience only to the
commands of the spirit of QuU In your
hearts, and cannot submit to any human
lawa or become the subjects of any sov
ereign; that you are not compelled to bear
arms or perform military service In Can
ada, but must become subjects of Great
Britain, and therefore you cannot obtain
land on which to live without obeying
all the institutions and lawa of Canada.
You therefore ask that you may be given
refuge In this country or on land under
the jurisdiction of this government where
you may live by the labor of your hands
and where you shall not be forced to obey
human ordinances or be asked to become
subjects of anyone except the good God.
You atate that yon use no meat or milk,
but only vegetables and fruit; that you
have no domestic animals and all your
work la done by your own labor, and axle
only for ao much land aa you can cultivate
by msftual labor without the assistance of
animals.
In reply I have to advise you that the
public lands of the United Statea are dis
posed of only to citizens of the United
States or those who have declared their
intention to become citizens.
MAKE A SWEEPING DENIAL
Answers ot Anthracite Roads to the
Petition Filed by William
R. Hearst.
WASHINGTON, Nor. II. The answers of
the Delaware ft Hudson, New York. Sus
quehanna Western, tha Erie and the
Lehigh Valley railroads to the complaint
of William R. Hearst of New York against
the anthracite coal-carrying roads were
Sled today with the Interstate Commerce
commission.
All the answers deny that the interstate
commerce law has been violated. They
deny that any unjust or discriminative
rates have been exacted on anthracite as
compared to bituminous or other carload
freight traffic, and deny that the petitioner
or any other persons or other independent
purchasers have sustained any injury by
reason of the anthracite transportation
tans.
The Erie, In Its answer, says the peti
tioner has no authority "to present the
petition la behalf of the so-called inde
pendent producers ot ev.hiacite eoal or
others;" denies that during certain yeara
named In the complaint it haa ec.ered into
any agreement to pool freight or freight
traffic in anthracite coal ot for propor
tionate division of coal traffic or division
of aggregate proceeds of earnings from
cnthraclte coal transportation.
The Erie company says that any tint
formlty of rates for anthracite coal trans
portation by the various carriers has been
the "natural and Inevitable result of com
petitive conditions, which require In the
case of anthracite coal, as with other com
modities, that traffic of the aame character
from the same or competing localities be
carried at substantially the same rates by
competing carriers," .
The Lehigh Valley' and tha New York,
Susquehanna A Western" answers are pre-
semea along similar lines.
WORK OF INSULAR BUREAU
Colonel Edwards, the Chief, Submits
His Annual Report to the
War Department.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 21. The annual re
port of Colonel Charles It. Edwards, chief
of the ' Bureau of Insular Affairs of the
War department, shows that office, In re.
sponse to the demands of congress and ot
the public, has performed a vast amount of
work and has collected and prepared, for
the general information of the public, a
large volume of facta regarding the insular
possessions ot the United Statea.
The demands on the bureau have been so
great that Colonel Edwards found It neces
sary to recommend an Increase In the cleri
cal force. In addition to the many other
Important duties which the War depart
ment has assigned to the bureau, it haa
charged it with the labor in tha United
States incident to tho selection of appoint
ees on the certification ot the United States
Civil Service commission, and the arrange
ment tor their transportation to the Philippines.
The report shows that great care has been
taken in the selection - of those who are
to take positions in the Philippines.
The bureau is accumulating a library ot
Insular documents, so that the record ot the
work performed by this bureau is segre
gated from the War department and will
furnish ths only official library of the Phil
ippines, Porto Rico and Cuba extant.
Recently the bureau has undertaken map
work. The Philippine insurgent records
and captured documents have been brought
to Washington recently and loaned to the
bureau for preparation tor possible publica
tion.
In conclusion the report saya:
A review of the work performed by this
bureau would be Incomplete without refer
ence to the large amount of work per
formed In examining. Investigating and

Add to Expenditure nnd Resort to
Desperate Measures to Make
I p Shortage.
BERLIN, Nov. 11. In the Reichstag to
day the secretary of the treasury. Baron
von Thlelmann, announced that the deficit
ta the Imperial budget for 1903, was esti
mated at $37,600,000. The budget, he added
would be submitted In two or three weeks.
The deficit tor 1902, was $14,750,000.
It would not do to be always providing
for deficits by loans, neither could the con
tributions of the federated states be In
creased. Nevertheless, it was probable that
the states would have to bear the loss.
What ought to be done was to Increase the
Imperial revenues so as to balance the ex
penditures. Looking around for suitable
objects for Increased taxation he saw beer
and tobacco and he begged the members
of the house to keep those in view.
Old-Aare Pensions Promised.
The government Intended, as soon as
practicable, to propose pensions for widows
and orphans. He was quite unable to say
how much such penslonswould be an ex
tension ot the state Insurance laws and
treasury burdens, but the suggestion was
made that $25 per annum waa lnsuflVient.
Assuming that $50 was enough, it would
take $40,000,000 to foot the bill.
It was Impossible to say how much the
government tariff bill would yield, but a
mere mechanical estimate, based on the
present imports showed the customs re
ceipts would increase $20,600,000. While
supporters of the tariff schedules thought
$126,000,000 would be derived.
The hint that the government wss
meditating pensions for widows and or
phans caused a stir among members, be
cause It Is one of the things advocated by the
socialists.
The deficit Is the result of the financial
depression, which etlll effects almcst every
form of business. While there have been
no large failures recently various symp
toms ot continued hard times appear. At
the Krupp works 60,000 laborers have bad
their time reduced two hours dally and

WASHINGTON, Nov. II. Secretary
Moody today directed that the Nero sur
roundings be turned over to the Paclfia
Cable company.
These soundings represent more than a
year s work and an expenditure ot abou
$100,000.
As a result of the secretin's lt

the number employed is much the same as

The Increased taxation on beer and to

chancellor Is holding frequent conferences
with representative parties, seeking to
break the oppoaitlon to the government's
tariff schedules but so far without decisive
results. i ,

MADRID, Nov. 21. The uproar in the
Chamber of Deputies yesterday, which was
caused by the attack of Senor Romero Rob
ledo on Premier Sagasta, continued
throughout the . evening and the premier
withdrew from the chamber.
The president of the house closed the
sitting amid protests from the members ot
the opposition and cries ot "There Is no
government."
The tioublo grew out of a speech by
Premier Sagaata In which be expressed sur
prise at the interpretation which had been
given to the recent ministerial crisis.
Senor Romero Robledo reproached the
premier with his political antecedents. He
declared that Senor Sagasta was not the
leader of a party, but the favorite of the
king, a statement which occasioned an
angry debate.

CRUISER CINCINNATI IS THE WINNER
Contest of Speed Between Ships of the
Navy on Trip from Virginia
Coast to San Juan,
Porto Kloe, .
SAN JTJAN, Porto Rico, Nov. 21. Carry
ing a great white bone In Its toeth, and
with phosphorescent spray dashing high
MP on its sharp bows, the cruiser Cincin
nati forged abreast ot Culebra light at
midnight last night, a winner in the great
st ocean race of war ships ever run on tho
North Atlantic seaboard.
Nearly two miles astern of tha cruiser
flashed the white searchlight of the battle
ship Alabama. It bad distanced all its
rivals ot the heavyweight class and had
ihown Ita quality by putting up a hammer
and tongs struggle all the way from Hamp
ton Roads with the fleet-footed cruiser.
One by one it hsd left behind the little
gunboat Machlas, the Indiana of Santiago
fame, the new battleship Kearsarge, Ita
own particular rival, and last of all, the
plucky Massacbuseets, sister ship of the
Oregon.
That the comparatively old Massachusetts
was a stronger competitor than the Kear
sarge Is one of the surprises of the race.
That the Alabama came in so close a
second to the fast commerce destroyer Cin
cinnati,' even though the cruiser hsd been
handicapped thirty-five miles at the start.
Is a superb performance for a ilrst-class
battleship heavily armed.
First Long Dlatnnce Race.
This Is the first time in history that the
ships of the North Atlantic aquadron have
engaged In such a long distance speed con.
teet in the open sea. As a component part
of the fleet now assembled for the winter
saval maneuvers under command of Ad
miral Dewey, the North Atlantic squadron
was ordered, after assembling at Hampton
Roads, to proceed to the nsval rendezvous
oft Culebra light, the teacon that gleams
from the pinnacle of a rocky little island
off San Juan point.
Here was a tuperb opportunity to test
the actual relative speed ot the ships of
the fleet In competition snd under thor
oughly practical conditions. Five of the
ships lined up for the start at noon, on
Saturday, the Alabama, the Kearsarge, the
Massachusetts, the Indiana and the Ma
chlas, baby of the fleet. The last named
Is a gunboat only 190 feet long and of 1,000
tons displacement. The other four are
battleships.
The Massachusetts and Indiana are sister
vessels, launched in 1803, and with the
Oregon, not entered In this contest, they
mark the earlier type ot first-class battle
ships of the new navy.
The Kearsarge and the Alabama repre
sented later types of sea fighters.
Thirty-five miles behind the line of bat
tleships aa they passed the 'Virginia capes
came the protected cruiser Cincinnati. By
reason ot its speedier and lighter type
this wss regarded as a fair handicap for
the greyhound of the fleet, which, to do Its
destined work, should early cutclass them
all In cruising qualities.
