Secretary Wilson Postpones His “An- nual Vacation. ‘Washington, Aug. 5.—Secretary Wil- son has determined not to .take his annual vacation during the progress of the investigation he is: conducting in the department of agriculture. He had intended to leave Washington on Aug. 1 to accompany Chief Forester Gifford Pinchot on a tour of the West- ern forest reserves, This work will now be left to Mr. Pinchot. “If any person has any reason to suspect the integrity of any of my employes now is the time for him to speak,” said the sécretary. “I am in the inspecting business now and want to get at the bottom of any rumors or facts that may be brought to the department. I am making inquiries on my own kook, but at the same time I will bring the searchlight to bear on any employes whose actions may be the subject of the suspicions of outsiders. Let them bring in their hints of wrongdoing and we will find out whether there is foundation for them.” | GBEs 5 me > Tirs.

N i John Barrett’s Opinion of the Chinese Boycott. San Francisco, Aug. 5.~—John Bar- rett, the newly appointed minister to Colombia, is here in connection with the commercial relations existing be- tween the United States and China, particularly as regards the boycott in- augurated by the Chinese guilds N against American products. He insists, however, that his mis- sion is not of an official character, but simply to acquaint himself with the feeling of the people of the coast as to the boycott and interview some of the merchants who are engaged in the Oriental trade. . Minister Barrett,” while conceding that the Chinese guilds are all power- ful in their country, is of the opinion that the present alarm shown by the people of this country over the action of the Chinese is unnecessarily exag- gerated. He firmly believes that what- ever grievances the Chinese guilds have will soon be dispelled when they are made to realize that our gov- ernment is disposed to act fairly with them in the matter of immigration. OVERVALUATION SUSPECTED. Experts Will Inspect Real Estate Holdings of Equitable Life. New York, Aug. 5—Two experts have been appointed by President Paul Morton to value every piece of real estate in which the Equitable Life Assurance society has an idter- est, says the Tribune. He is stated to have taken this action when he re- ceived the reports of expert account- ants. These reports, it is alleged, in- dicate the possibility of overvaluatiou. The society owns in this country and abroad real estate valued at approxi- mately $36,000,000. According to the Tribune it/ is thought possible that this amount will have to be reduced, while the valuation on parcels on which loans are outstanding ‘ymay have to be reduced by at least 10 per cent. The last report to the state insurance department gave the value of real estate owned by the society at $36,895,647. ° CEASES ON MARCH 4 NEXT. Government Aid for' Certain [ndian Tribal Schools. Washington, Aug. 5.—Acting Secre- tary of Interior Ryan has decided that appropriations for the main- tenance of Indian tribal schools in Indian Territory must cease March 4 next, when tribal government for the Five Civilized tribes ceases. The de- cision is announced in a letter to the commissioner of Indian affairs in re- spense to a letter from that officer asking to be advised as to the length of time for which contracts should be made with Choctaw boarding schools.

Saved From' Disaster by Coupling Pin Breaking., New York, Aug, 6.—Engineer Will- iam Money rolled with his engine. down a steep embankment at:Bay- onne, N. J., into Newark bay and was drowned. The engine plunged out of sight into deep water. A crowded excursion train on the Central Railroad of New Jersey was |left marooned and with passengers panic stricken on a trestle above the bay, saved from the same fatal dive only by a breaking coupling pin and the bravery of the lost engineer, who went to his death while in the act of swinging the emergency brakes. The train was running from Atlantic City end had just passed over a bridge at moderate speed when the gpgine ran into an open switch and was derailed, along with thé tender and two bag- gage cars. At this point the rails are laid on a steep embankment which forms the bridge approach and the engine and tender toppled over the embankment. The coupling pin be- tween the tender and the first car snapped, leaving the coaches, which fortunately stopped still, on the em- bankment, = SEETRRGIRMS- ~ o SECOND JURY DISAGREES.
