LONDON, April 8.—A special order was issued to-day to the customs staffs of all the ports of the United Kingdom forbid- ding them to issue the usual order for entry to all vessels carrying free goods. This applies not only to timber, but to all cargoes at present free of duty. The customs authorities In London are very reticent on the subject of this com- prehensive regulation, but the general character of the order is believed to be intended to insure secrecy regarding the intention of the Chancellor of the ExX- chequer, Sir Michael Hicks-Beach. That h's budget proposzis wil: be unusually im- portant is indicated by the fact, an- | nounced in the House of Commons this ofterncon by the Government leader, A. J. Balfour, that the budget will occupy | the House both Thursday and Friday. | Usually one day has been sufficient for | the introduction of the statement of the Chancellor of the Exchequer. All kinds of rumors are afloat, but ac- cording to the best opinions the Chancel- lor of the Exchequer will not depart from his traditional free trade policy. The war -xpenditure is estimated at £40,000,000, as ainst £60,000,000 last year, while the grant to the new South African colonies is only £1,800,000, as against £6,500,000 last | year. Altogether, Sir Michael Hicks- | Peach has to meet an estimated expendi- | turc of £171,000,000, as against £17,000,000 | last year. g 1t is expected that the Chancellor will endeavor to raise £6,000,000 by additional | taxation, bringing the revenue, roughly speaking, up to £150,000,000. and that he Will provide the remainder by a loan, for | the interest on which he may possibly tap the resources of the Transvaal. A per- stent rumor is current here that iron re will also be taxed. | 1 Consolidating ;i Offices.

Manchurian Convention Is Signed by Diplomats in Peking. TIENTSIN, April 8—Three Chinese troops and a number of Krupp guns have been dispatched to Southern Mongolia, where the people are in revolt against the severe indemnity taxation. Several vil- lages have been strongly fortified and their inhabitants are determined to fight. They say they are assured of the assist- ance or 30,000 disaffected persons. PEKING, April 8—The Manchurian convention was signed to-day. The rati- fication will take place three months from date. The Russians undertake to restore the Nieuchwang and Shanhaikwan Railroad to the Chinese when the British relin- quish control of the railway in_ Chili province. Sir Ernest Satow, the British Minister here, is, however, negotiating to secure a large preponderance of British administrative control in the latter rail- way after it is handed over to the Chi- nese. B e e e e ol COSTLY PACIFIC TRANSPORT SERVICE Continued from Page One. Y cessive and material inferior.” Prices paid for material were often strikingly in excess of the then current ! | market prices for the same articles of| like quality, and supplies were purchased in the open market without advertising. It is further stated in General Young's summary that ‘‘preference seems to have been shown special firms to the extent of ordering from them articles out of their line of business, these firms at the same time charging exorbitant prices, to the extent in a few instances of 100 per cent in excess of ruling market rates.” Upon these facts developed by the in- vestigation General Young relates that under the pressure of necessity of mov- ing large bodles of troops at short no- tice, lack of methods and forms to safe-| guard the Government occurred. Lieutenant Colonel Chamberlain speci- fles in detall the feautres summarized by General Young. He refers to the report of the ““Bates board” that much of the work done on the Logan was defective, also that the amounts spent on the Hancock, $547,016, were excessive, and were for lux- urious fittings. Lengthy descriptions are given of furnishings, etc., of inferior qual- ity, placed on various transports. Chamberlain says that one of the most notable abuses has been the use of great quantities of high-priced disinfectants. The transport Thomas, he says, on five trips used $9295 worth. He says there also has been an excessive use of high- priced patent cleaning and polishing mat- ter, the Thomas using $3243 worth in five s iy trips. He adds that this abuse has been ; remedied.

BRUSSELS, April 8.—Following a so- clalist meeting held here to-day, at which the speakers urged force to come to the aid of reason in obtaining universal suf- frage, 1500 demonstrators paraded the streets of the city- and came in collision with the police. As a result some of the rioters and the policemen were wounded. Some of the mob then tried to make a demonstration in front of the palace of Prince Albert of Belgium. Here they were charged by the police and three were ‘wounded. Minor suffrage disorders have occurred also at Ghent, Antwerp, La Louvine and other towns. FIGHT MAY OCCUR HERE. Indications.That Jeffries and Fitz~ simmons Will Select This City. NEW YORK, April 8.—As the prospects for the fight in Charleston are not very promising, it is more than likely that the heavy-weight championship battle be- tween Jeffries and _Fitzsimmons will eventually be pulled off in California. The announcement of Governor McSweeney’'s refusal to permit any fight to take place in South' Carolina, while not altogether a surprise, is disappointing to Fitzsimmons and his manager, Percy Willlams, who were in hopes that the Charleston pro- moters would secure the;permission. Man- ager Willlams received a telegram from J. C. Jaudon, manager of the Charleston Athletic Club, yesterday, stating that he would wire him definite information to- morrow. ‘Williams, however, has little hopes of a contest taking place at Charleston now, and he believes that San Francisco will be the battle-ground, providing the Cen- tury Club of Los Angeles is out of the field for good. “Of course we would like to see contest take place at Charleston,” said Williams, “but it looks as though the Governor would put a stop to it. If this is the case, then I suppose we will have to go to California. At present I don't know of any other place where we- could pull off the match Takes Ballot From Aliens. VICTORIA, B.

He says the service has survived the period when it was most sub- ject to criticism and attack and that mis- trust has given way to confldence since its methods and means have acquired the sanction of success. The report says it is not admitted that prefercnce was shown to particular firms: as to high prices paid for disinfectants the prices are aeclared to have been the same as those charged merchant ships. Other alleged irregularities occurred during an emergency war period. The numerous_ other reports inclosed, from Colonels Maus and Sanger, and from a great number of subordinate officers, give the most minute details of transport ser- vice, in some cases irregularities being shown and criticism expressed. All of the reports seem to agree that the abuse: were the result of lack of method on the part of subordinates.
