Tho I'ckln cor respondent of Tlio Times explains that his statement of Thursdny ns to the concession to Russia of a 25 year lease of Ta-Llen-AV'an ns nn open port should havo read as nn Ice free port. lie Bdds: "At tho tsunfr-ll-yamen (Chinese foreign ollloo) further conditions were agreed upon respecting the Ta-Llen-Won leaso. Russia agrees that the port shall he open to ships and the i commerce of the whole world, with a customs tariff similar to that of a Chinese treaty port, although Its ad ministration and collection will be the same ns at any other Ilusslan port. China having represented that Tn- Uen-Wan Is certain to supplant Nlu Chwang as tho chief port of Man churia and cause a loss In the Imperial customs revenue, Russia undertaking to contribute to the Chinese govern ment tho balance of the customs col lected at Ta-Llen-Wan, after payment of expenses. 'Though this arrangement Is obvi ously temporary, the Chinese are much flattered by the concessions. The con ditions generally are cleverly designed to conciliate the trading nations while Kussta will consolidate her power and strengthen her base prior to the ab sorption of Manchuria. Russia has no tified China that Japan has withdrawn opposition to Russian action as to the Leao-Tong ports In consideration of Russia's withdrawal from Corea." The Russians, according to a speclnl dispatch from Shanghai, having order ed tho Chinese to leave Port Arthur, the mandarins and soldiers are bolt ing pell mell, with their baggage, to Che Foo, Nlu Chwang and Ta Ku.

Many people sutler from piles, because after trying the many lotions, salves and ointments without relief or cure, have come to the conclusion that a surgical operation is the only tiling left to try and rather than submit to the shock and risk to life of an op eration, prefer to suffer on.

In the Kings county criminal court In Hrooklyn ye terday nine Indictments were handed down by the frrnnd Jury nRnlnat former city olllclula nnd contractors of Hrook lyn. The Indicted men tire: Former City Works Commissioner Theodore II. Willis, ex-I'ollce Commissioner W. IS. Phillips, Itobort W. Fielding, former deputy of city works commissioner; Oscar Knnpp, former water purveyor; Fred Milne, Inspector; former Alder man William J. I,eaycraft, former Al derman Joseph R. Clarke, A. L. Jnnsen, a clerk In Controller Palmer's offlce; W. II. Goft, former superintendent of sewers. The Indictments charge tho former officeholders with having, by means of fraudulent contracts for public work, made away with $50,000 of the fundi they found In the treasury of the city of Brooklyn when they took olllce. Tho athdavlts secured by the district at- troney and by him laid before the Brand Jury allege that the accused made It a practice to meet at the resi dence of William K. Phillips, where plans were discussed and agreed upon for securing contracts upon conditions of peculiar advantage to those Inter ested. It Is alleged that Contractor Daniel Doody supplied the foundation for ' whole Investigation by practically tu lng state's evidence after Comptro Coler and his assistants had disc -ered that $80,000 In cash was missing from the Brooklyn water fund, and that there were evidences of other grave frauds and defalcations. The records charge the J80.000 In question to "emergency work." The law required that all work the cost of which was to exceed $2,000 should bo awarded by contracts, upon adver tisement for the reirular time. To evade this law. It Is alleged, tho of ficers of tho Brooklyn city works de partment had been In the habit of ordering work and paying for It In sums of $2,000 or less. Further search In tho records brought out the fact that most of these small Jobs and the money for them had fallen Into the hands of a firm that ap peared upon tho books as Thomas Frazler & Co. Mr. Color was at first Inclined to believe that the firm was a myth, but a little detective work dis closed the fact that Contractor Doody was really Thomas Frazler & Co. All the bills for this "emergency work" had to receive the "O K" ot Water Purveyor Knapp, be certified as correct by Deputy City Works Com missioner Fielding, passed by Auditor Sutton, thence through the hands of Comptroller Palmer and were finally paid by City Treasurer Taylor. The Indictment of Mr. Clarke was for accepting a consideration for the performance of an official act while In the board of aldermen. It Is sur mised from this that the grand Jury took up the action of the board of al dermen In connection with the grant ing of trolley franchises and exten sions.
