CURED IS WEEK BT CUTICURA Report Thai Ihe Jnpanesa Ara Very Severely Punishing Looting. Chsfu, Jan. 22. Twenty-eeven men and women, comprising the first party gees from Port Arthur, arrived here in a ii ii tit-day. They slated that twenty two other junka bearing over 60) uon- combatants were alao on the way, Heverai launches left with the idea of aasiatiog the junks in rcachJttg Chfu.

These refugees, including men, women ami children, had been waiting for steamer at I'igextn Hay. They went with out tthelter and were obliged to sleep on tint mtnd. The expected ateamer failing to arrive permission waa secured for thera to use junks. The refugees state that aince the first few days following the surrender of Port Arthur there has been practically no loot ing, the Japanese officers dealing sternly with all offenders. The Chinese were more culpable than the Japanese, who generally confined themselves to taking small art cles, which they probably wanted chiefly as souvenirs.

The concensus of opinion is that the soldiers behaved with remarkable self- restraint, compared with the conduct rf others in similar situations in the history ot wars. Itoughly estmated, 200 civilians lost their lives (luring the siege. The refugee generally exhibit no signs of ill health flora their subsistence on a restricted diet. ONE CENT A DAY FOR FOOD TurKish Officials Not Particularly Gener. ous lo Starving Christians.

Washington, Jan. 22. The State De partment ban made public portions of an important report recently made by Dr. Thomas II. Norton, American consul at Ilarpilt, Turkey, on the results of a tour of investigation made by him through the vilayets ot itrtlls and Van, which were the twenes during several months hist summer of repented attacks upon and mas sacres of Armenian Christiana.

The principal object of the visit was for the belter protection of American interests there, aud the timely arrival ot Itr. Nor ton, it is stated, contributed to a peaceful termination. No Americans were known to Jiavn been injured. Itr. Norton estimates that In the Sassun district lives were lost in last sum mer'a massacres, including 2,771 children.

Several thousand refugees who tied to Mush were forced to return to their ruined villages, where the Yktlyet author! ties made an aillowance of one cent a day prronprt-a for food. The question for the moment, Jie says, is what is to be done to save the surviving population of Sansun, numbering 1OC0I) or more, from the results of InsutllcietU protection aim food.

Mr. Howells on Marriage. Writing in the Kditor'a Easy Choir, in Harper's Magazine for February, Mr. Howells considers various aspects of the tuurriage relation, and remarks that the women who assail marriage, in nuy debate upon it, "must have the greater courage because they know that they will have to meet the condemnation of their own sex, whose social safety is so bound up with marriaga that whatever threat-vis it threatt-ns the well-being of the whole sex. Leaving love, and all its sweet allures, out of the tiuestion, and comiug down to business, there is nothing else for most wotneu but the risks and chances of.

monogumic marriage, with its tacit nioditica'-i-ms, and its limitations by divorce. They must believe in It, for any other way madness lies.

State Hid Not Bring Them Here Special Dispatch to Democrat and Chronicle. ALBANY, January 22. In view of the recent report of Frank P. Wargent, Luited States commissioner- general or immigration, showing many canes of dependant aliens in the public in stitutkms of this state, Hubert II 4mrd, secretary of the Board Charities, was asked yesterday about the situation. Haobard said: "Mr.

Sargent, in hia recently published report to tlie Secretary of Commerce and Lathor for the hseaP year ending June 30, 11XM, presents many interesting and use fill atatiistica with relation to dependent aliens in charitable and penul institutions In the United 'States. In this tsate, ac cording to the CommrssioneMJeneral's re port, dependent aliens, including men, women njid children, were found in the charitable Institutions, and 2,283 the penal institutions, including the re formatories for women and girls and also for younger clhlklren. "These statistics -were first brought to the hoard's atentiou try reports in the newspapers, end the subject was at once referred to the Committee on State and Alien I'ooir for investigation The committee aought to Obtain from lite Conunis sioirer-tieueral of Immigration the details of the cases reported and at the same time offered to co-operate so fur as prac ticable in the removal of such dependent aliens as were not transportable under the law.s of hhe United States, 'lite clerical force at the service of the Commissioner not toeing siillicient to enable him to furnish this detailed information the com- mitee, with bra permission, employed clerk to nvakn a copy of euch records. Tlie facts disclosed are now receiving careful consideration, with the view of securing the removal to Uieir native countries all dnpemlent aliens within the jurisdiction of the board whom should 'be so dealt with "In so far as aliens are in temporary need because of xume acute trouble re quiring treatment in hospital, perhaps. or some other form of casual aid, which appears to be the case in a large number of instances, it wiil readily be apparent that there exists no just cause tor their removal.

Misfortunes of this nature read ily happen to the families of citizens and there is no reason to expect that aliens will not also suffer from them. 'The cases requiring the most serious cotwideriitioii, so far as this 'board is eon cerned, must necessarily be those belong aug to the chronic pauper class, such, for example, lis tire to be found in the almshouse- and other like public institutions of charity. An examination of the record obtained from the ottb-e of the Commissioner-General shows that a huge major ity of the alien inmates of the almshouses are men and women of advanced age who have oeen in this country manv years and were orbliged to seek pinblie relief be cause of chronic need A careful exam Illation of the records shows such cases, it ut. of these, feH are women, who seldom take out citizena' papers. Out of the total number reported from all parts of the state, 015 were over ii years out, but seventy-five bad tieen lu this country less than ten years, while olit had been here over ten years.

The records further show that most of these dependent aliens bad 'been in this country for long periods before commitment, indicating very clear ly that they do not belong to tlie class known as 'astrmted A large proportion of these dependent alliens in the almshouses had apparently been to almost all intents and purposes citizens of this country "This, it must he admitted, is gratifying to our board which has removed many de- iepdeut aliens to their homes in -oilier countries. It must not be assumed, how ever, that necessity does not exist for the use of the utmost cituliou in dealing with tho cases of dependent aliens. The list of cases obtained from the Commissioner-(Jenernl of Immigration is much appre ciated and will be put to useful service ill the inquiry being conducted by the board through its Committee on State and Alien I'oor. "In returning dependent aliens to their homes in other countries, the humanitarian side of the qutstiou is one for primary consideration. Doubtless some may be found who are willing to return and whose transportation would be proper nnd expedi ent, tubers again will be found whom it would be improper to return, ev-m though tney might be persuaded to go.

Si ill others would not consent to be transported under any condition that the slnte could osi'er and tinder existing laws will to be permitted to remain here, dependent though they be. "In the opinion of our board the deportation of aliens should be duty imposed by law upon the I'nited States government. The regulation of immigration, includiug the deportation of undesirable immigrants, is a function of government which might at any time give rise to questions of international importance. With such questions the individual states are not in a position to deal. "Harmonious relations exist between the olticersj of our board and the doled States Bureau ot Immigration.

Their cooperation ha sheen of service to Ihe state. It is believed, however, that the power of the United States government to remove deptndent and delinquent aliens shoutd be extended by low so as to permit the te-moval of all such persons within five yet-rs of their arrival in this country where such course seemed desirable. "Meantime the I'nited States Bureau of Immigration should encourage and assist the deportation of dependent aud oeliii-quent aliens to the fullest extent possible under the present laws. The rule, adopted by the bureau do not exhaust the powers grunted to it under the immigration laws and do, to some extent, tlie work of the state. The United States government will not pty the railroad transportation of aliens who have become de pendent from causes arising subsequent to their lauding within one year after their arrival in this country, nlthiugh it furnishes transportation from the port of landing to the alien's native country, "Kveu in the case of aliens whose dependence is due to causes arising prior to their arrival, the United States government assumes but half the cost of inland transportation, thus placing nh inequitable burden upon the slato which had no ion-trol over the binding of the iniiii tiits" $70,000 Fire Loss in New YorK.

New Y'ork. Jan. 22-- Mre at an early hour to-day oouipletHly destroyed the Interior of MINERAL BULLETIN. Method of Assaying Gold Telluried Ores. Mining men in certain districts of the United States will be interested in Bulletin No.

of the United States Geological Survey, in which the subject of inquiry is the accuracy tlie crucible assay method for telluride gold ores. The main point definitely established is the fact that the doubts -which have been entertained as to the accuracy of the dry method are not well founded. It is clearly determined that tlie tire assay by crucible for gold telluride ores gives results which are quite equal to those obtained by the wet method, provided due corrections are made for slag and cupel losses. The gold loss in the slag is very small, hut the cupel losses are very appreciable. The cupellation loss of gold by volatilization is generally slight as compared with that by absonrtion.

At a temperature which allows the formation of abundant feather litharge the volatilization is negligible, or is perhaps compensated by retention of lead. The case is otherwise, however, at high temperatures, as the volatilization may then average one-half of that by absorption in the case of a quartation alloy. The loss of gold by absorption is very important, nnd is influenced, far more thau is generally supposed, by slight changes in temperature. It is greater with pure gold nnd alloys poor in silver than with alloys rich in silver. The experiments of YV.

F. Hil-lebrand and E. T. Allen, the authors of the bulletin, tailed absolutely to show the need of a higher temperature at the end of cupellation with gold beads than with those of silver. The most exact results were obtained when feather litharge was still abundant ot the time of brightening.

Furthermore, It is altogether Unnecessary to have gold beads in the muffle for some time after brightening in order to remove the last of the lead, for there is no loss in weight from so doing, but if anything a very slight tendency to increase. Ihe re sults on absorption, as influenced by the amount of lead used in cupellation, were inconclusive. Tlie error caused by the re tention of lead in the beads is serious, if the results of two careful tests are to be depended on. which show Jill and .37 per cent, of lend. The amount of this reten tion is not lessened by leaving the beads in the inutile for some time after brightening.

Silver can be completely extracted from quartation alloys by nitric acid, but more than two repetitions of the acid treatment and subsequent washing are called for, if any certainly of complete extraction is to 'be expected. Tests made with mixtures of pure nitrous and nitric acids show that tlie solvent action of the nitric add is so slight, if indeed there is any at -all, that it need not be considered as a possible disturbing factor in parting. It was similarly shown that the losses in parting with pure nitric acid, whether tracer of gold really dissolve or not, may be Ig nored, in an ore assay, at least. This bulletin, which is entitled "Com parison or a wet ami crucuue-ure memuos for the assay of gold telluride' ores, with notes on the errors occurring in the opera lions of fire assay and purling," is among the survey's free publications. It may be obtained on application to the director ot the United States Geological Survey Washington, I.

C. Changed in Transmission. Harper's Weekly. At the beginning of the past summer a ertnin well known literary woman in the West repaired to the shores of one of the lakes of Michigan, there to prepare her cottage for occupancy during the heated term. Before going she hud arranged with her husband to cause a lot of house hold goods to be packed and forwarded by steamer.

Pursuant to instructions, the jusliand personally supervised the packing of the various effects needed for tlie cottage Michigan, even going down to the dock to sec that they were duly conveyed on board the steamer. Moreover, as requested by his wife, ho telegraphed what he hail done. "Lares and peu.iies on board," wired he; "will arrive to-morrow uioruing."

WOMAN TO SUCCEED HIM Child Labor Committee ofStW York Hetleted to Futjor the Appoint' ment of Mrs. Kelly, Who Hoi 'Been Prominent In Corrective Work Special Dlapatch to Itemocnit and Chronicle. ALBANY, January 22.

Notwithstanding the fact that Conimta- aloner Jutm McMai-klu, at the State Labor Di-partmrut, explained to Governor Higgles rra-ently that New York hna the lowest per centaife of children employed In any ot the iiianufnctiirlnfr atatea, there Is a irrow Injf liellef that when Ills four years' term of office eiplres on March th next he will not iM reappolntcil, as a result of the saltation wltlch la rx-IuK wscd aj(alnt him by child labor organizations throiiKhonit tlie state because of the CouiiolHsloner'a al-letted failure to enforce the ctitld labor laws. C'ouimlsRtoner McMackln atlributm the attack made upon him relative to the failure to enfrce the clilld labor laws In New York city to be the cries of reformers who have no real knowledge of conditions, and he tbaa so told (lovernor Illgglns. So far as the employment of children In factories In the large cities Is concerned," aays onimlKsmner McMackln, It Is as much the duty of the- board of Education of New York city to enforce the compulsory education Inw aa It Is our Insjtectors to aee that the laws governing the employment of children are enforced. New York city ha aeventy-lhroe truant officers whose duty It la to see that children are sent to ihnol. Why don't they aeo to It that this Is done 1 Our department has only thirty-seven ln- lectors.

Kvery child In the factories that cannot produce a certlllcato must quit work. But the difficulty to prove that a clilld apparently under the age of 14 la actually under the age prescribed by law, for they all hold certitlcntes to the effect that they are of autllcli-nt years to be nualllled by law to earn a livelihood, in many rases there or no certitlcntes of birth olrtalnable and I have already detailed two Inspectors to Kills Is land to report as to the nge of children of lin uilgru nta who are dally being brought to this country." CommlHsionor McMackln Is not Inclined to comment much on conditions In New York lty flnd vicinity, but refers his to Thomas A. Keith, of the New York of- The Commissioner, however. Is prepar ing a slatemcnt In reply to the recent pet! tlon presented to (luvomor Tllgglns by Sec rotary Ilobert Hunter, of the New Y'ork Child Labor Committee, which will ho glveu out probably this week. The Commissioner points out In his last report that the percentage of children employed In factorlivi In this stale Is much less than In other manufacturing states.

In Illinois It is 3.H: Massachusetts. 8.3: Penn sylvania. 4.H: Ithode Island, B.7: Ohio, 85 and New Y'ork 2 1. The report of the Bureau of fjtbnr Issued at Washington last yvar on the percentage of children under 10 years of age, em ployed In textile establishments shows the following: In New York, 4.3; Masaaebn- sefta, 2: Kbode Island, 6.0; New Jersey, 10.2; Pennsylvania, ltl.tl; North Carolina 24.0: Maryland, 17.0: Bout Carolina, 20.7: OeoTgla, 17.4: Alabama, 27 2. While the New York city Child Labor Committee declares that It Is not advancing the candidacy of anyone for the place, many of the charitable organisations throughout the state are trying to bring about the np polntment of Mrs.

Florence Kelly and that she should succeed Mr. McMackln la In the range of possibilities. There seems to he a likelihood of such a move, unless Governor Illgglns decides In the eveut of re fusing to reappoint Mr. McMackln, to put In an organisation man. Whether politics will be allowed to play a part Til the sltuntlou time alone will tell.

Certain It Is that there seems to be a general Inclination to lop off Mr. MeMnckln'a official head on the part of child labor agitators. District-Attorney Jerome, during a recent conversation with liovernor Illgglns, told the Coventor that It was his belief that the laws were not being enforced. When It was suggested to liovernor Hlg gins that tin- appointment of a woman to bead a (date department would be a decided Innovation, be smiled nnd replied: "Well we are progressing." The Governor further said that be was looking up the law lu the matter and bad found nothing to prevent htin from appointing woman for the place should be care to do so. He has given no intimation, however, that be Intends to do so.

Mrs. Kelly's frtends declare that her appointment would mean a strict enforcement of the labor laws of the state so far as It lays In her power to bring It about. She has had wide experience in labor mutters and Is well known throughout the country. Mrs. Kelly Is 45 years old and the daugbter of William It.

Fournlel made his first public appearance at Maurice Daly's nuuiy years ago when he played Tom Gallagher, the Chicago shortstop, to 1.400, at 14. Inch balk-line. He won the match by 79 points. In a return match. In which Gallagher received l.Soo to 3.000, Gallagher won by 711.

This game almost, broke up a a row because Gallagher took Fourulel's blue chalk, which he had brought from Paris wllh hltn, and threw It out of the window. Four, nlcl did not see It done, but he accused Gal. higher of stealing his chalk, ami It was wltlj great difficulty that the referee and specta-tors settled the dispute. Louis Cure, another French plaver. stands near the head of his profession In" that country.

He Is 35 years old. being much, younger than either Fournlel or Vlgnaux. He has a peculiar style and is the only Bret-class left, handed player In the world He developed his game In the academies at Paris and was comparatively unknown until 18117, at which time he won matches from the best billiard players lu France and was balled as champion.

His first match was at Toronto, January 27, The game was at straight rail, and Sutton beat his opponent, Joseph Capron, by a score of 700 to 2tltt. Maurice Vlgnaux. the old Frenchman, la conceded by all billlardlsts to be the greatest player In the world.

Although sixty yean of age he plays as well now as he did ten years ago, and he has defeated every billiard player of note of recent years the exception of Frank Ives, whom he never met. Vlgnaux played numerous threecall carrom tournaments, winning the championship from Gamier, Ialy, Slosson. the two idons, Hu- dolphc and IWntels.
