PAY OF ARMY FOR ONE YEAR Paymaster Genmeral Reports That Regulars and Vol teers Re. celved $36,054,600, WASHINGTON, Oct. 26.—Paymaster Gen- eral Bates reports to the secretary of war that during the year ending June 30, lie has paid to the army, regular and vol- inteers, $36.656,600; on the emergency fund disband the Cuban army,” $1,642,650. everal minor recommendations concerning of the army are contained in this 1300, ort. A compagison of the expenditures of the st fiscal year with those of the flscal car of 1899 shows a net decrease of $33 182,147 The mileage provisions under the act of May last have applied satisfactorily to the army, gvn the single exception of what are knoWn as “‘agreement road” de- ductions. The expense, time and labor involved in the multiplicity of time and distance tables required under the ever changing conditions of the railroads mak- ing these deductions is found to offset cempletely any saving to the government through their use in the transportation of troops and supplies. General Bates there- fore recosmends that this clause be stricken out of the mileage provisions. The paymaster gemeral calls particular attention to the 10 and 20 per eent extra ray allowance provided by congress for tha troops serving in the island possessions and Alaska, which unfortunately deprives the troops serving in China from a share of this bonus, the disturbances in the Chi- nese empire not having assumed a threat- ening aspect when this law was passed in the latter part of May. He recommends that this extra allowance be extended to officers and men serving in all countries beyond the limits of the United States proper and that the time of this foreign service shall be computed from May 26 1900, the day the act became & law FUSION SLANDER IS ABSURD Ridiculo ry About Col sing the Bryan Ward Langhed at ia Lrnco) LINCOLN, Oct. 26.—(Special Talegram.)— The story printed in the Omaha popocratic organ charging the republicans with “colo- nizing Bryan's ward” is on its face so ri- dlculously absurd that even fusionists here in Linceln do not vouch for its truthful- ness “Cap”’ Carder, the man who claims he was paid $480 to make the ward go r publican, is a disappointed office seeker who left the party several vears ago when fused to support him.

HASTINGS, —(Special Tele- | gram.)—Am!d the blare of trumpets, the eat of drums, the popping of fireworks and the blazing of red and green fire, hun- dreds of people paraded the streets tonight cheering various republican candidates Regardless of the threatening weather the republican rally was a fine demonstration of republican enthusiasm Attorney James introduced Mr. W. . Morlan to a large au- dience in the Kerr opera house Mr. Morlan asked his hearers to take Bryan's speeches made in 159 and compare them with what he is saying today and note how he changes his tune. He then began to explain the necessity of the republicans of electing the legislative ticket this yvear as thers were two United States senators 10 be elected, and for the good of Hastings and the people of Nebraska these senators must be republicans, He also spoke a& word for himself by saying that it was equally as important that the republican candidates for congress should be elected for the same good reasons. The speaker said that there were times whan everybody should stand by the coustry by standing by the administration, and if there were any differences about the war they would be settled after the election. He compared the democratic and republican parties and showed the necessity of supporting the re- publican ticket from top to bettom at the coming election. Mr. Morlan then read a clipping of Bryan's speech wherein he said n Virginia, in answer to a question about 18 to 1, that it was the paramount issue in 1896, but on account of the many obstacles the republicans had brought forth that it vas no lcoger the paramount issue. This the speakel explained was the slippery way an and his followers had of dodging the Mr. Morlan then gave a brief history of the United States, telling how this country bad acquired territory from time to time as occasior demanded it, and as fate had put the Philippines under the care of Uncle Sam it was the duty of Americans to see to t that these lslands were protected under the safeguard of the American army until such time as they could properly take care of themselves.

I[n the first place, Mr. Hine sald, Alvord had worked steadily and without suspicion until the afternoon of the | 1#th inst. By the merest accident a clerk |saw him make certain erasures im the clearing house sheet and while he thought this unusual said nothing about it to any body until shortly after 4 o'clock. By that time Alvord had gome, but it was ex pected that he would return, as he ha some work to finish When Alvord failed to return the clerk who had seen him make the erasures made casual mention of the matter to Assistant Cashier Backus. The latter, without sus- pecting that any thing was wrong, looked over Alvord's balance and soon found sev eral discrepancies. He was of leaving matters for on the point Alvord's adjust- ment when he decided to make a further examination and soon found that magy | items had been deliberately falsified. By | this time the suspicions of the assistant cashier had become very much aroused. { All the high officials of the bank had gone for the day, but gathering a number of clerks Mr. Backus wemt hurriedly over the note teller's books and in a few moments had overwheiming proof of Alvord's guilt Mr. Hine did not say how Alvord learned |(Lnx, he was under suspicion, but he con- firmed the report that the note teller re turned to the bank early om Thursday ev | 1ag and, seeing others at work books, realized that he had | ered. | Alvora had mot been under surveillance up to that time, although it was sald he was suspected as early as the 16th inst The Bank officials are convinced that he did not o to his home the night of the 15th and they are also convinced that he | bas not been there since the morning of that date. Alvord's erime came to light exactly three days after the national bank examiners completed their examination | While the First National bank officials ad- | mit Alvord's wrong-doing is in no degree | the result of any laxity on the part of | the examiners, yet they seem somewhat annoyed at what they regard as misrepre- sentations on the part of those attached | to the ofice of the comptroller of the cur- | rency at Washington. —— | Takes Admiral W Place.
