ADMITS OFFICERS WERE BAD.

Gadgeyandana., Manchuria, May 14. -
Gen. Kouropatkin, in conversation on
Friday, criticized the system of moboli-
=Hon, saying that when the Seven -
teenth corps arived in Manchuria it had
but a third of the proper compliment of
offieers, and that many of these were
undesirable, having apparently been
shipped of as it riddance.
The General said further that unat-
tached troops should be embodied into
the units already in the field, in accord-
ance with the experience of officers who
had seen the most service.
This course, he added, would effect a
great avine in transportation, as a
corps of 25,000 men, with its baggage,
and trains, required the same number
of cars as 100.000 men to fill the rauks
of corps already in Manchuria.
ACCEPTS FRANCE'S PLEA.
Japan Will Not Force Crisis for Violation
of Neutrality.
Londou, May 14. -The grave fear of
the spread of the war to the European
powers, which alarmed al classes early
in the week, has considerably mitigat-
ed. The situation, although still deli-
cate, seems to justify the optimistic view
expressed in these despatches on May
8 that apan will not exercise her right
to punish violations of neutrality, except
as it last resort.
The reasons why she should restrain
her resentment unless her existence
were at stake are overwhelming. More-
over, most diplomatists, including prob-
ably those of Japan, are convinced. of
the good faith of the French Govern-
ment. This does not imply that there
have been no violations of the neutral-
ity laws by the Franck authorities. On
the contrary, the French offences of this
nature have undoubtedly been flagrant.
The offences, have, however, been com-
mitted in disobedience of instructions
front the French Government.
It is not desired to bring wholesale
charges of bribery against French
functionaries in 'various parts of the
world, but it is well known that Rus-
sian money .has been spent lavishly and
unscrupulously to secure illegithnate pri-
vileges and supplies. The official commu-
nications between Admiral Rojestvensky
and the French authorities have been
strictly in accordance with the laws of
neutrality, but the process has been a
mere farce in effect.
The week's agitation has been most
salutary. It has awakened the French
clovernment and people to the extreme
gravity of the situation, and has re-
sulted in instructions being sent to the
Far East, and only gross insubordina-
tion can prevent the removal of Japan's
just cause of complaint.

aCieueral Coxey,". and in au effort to
bring their grievances directly before the
officers of the Government, 115 men, rep-
resenting the army bootmakers, who
have been on strike for several weeks
at Nottingham, arrived at the Marble
Arch this afternoon at 3.50, after their
march of 108 miles. They halted at the
Marble Arch because of a notCtsittion
from the police that they would Lot be
allowed to aproach nearer than a mile
from the Houses of Parliament. A depu-
tation of ten men therefore drove to the
House of (-ominous, where they made an
attempt to interview Mr. Arnold -For-
ster, the Secretary of War. Meanwhile
the others rested in Hyde Park and held
at meetings
The deputation did not see Mr. Ara -
old -Forster, who was abseut. ahey con-
ferred with sympathizing members of
Parliament, who agreed to try to move
an adjournment of the Henke of Com-
mons in order to discuss the bootmak-
ers' grievances. Meanwhile Mr. Gribble,
the strike leader, and his companions,
were allowed in the Strangers' Gallery
of the House. After listening impatient-
ly to a long debate on woman suffrage,
Gribble rose and shouted excitedly, call-
ing attention to the object of the strik-
ers' visit. It is a heinous o•ffence against
the rules of the House to speak in the
strangers' gallery. Oribble was immedi-
ately led out by attendants. He lost las
temper, and when he was brought into
the central lobby be made a rush and nt-
tempted to force his way into the House.
Two doorkeepers stopped him. Griblale
s.truggled, and polieemen hurried to the
scene. It took half it dozen of them to
control and .eject him. There was great
excitement in the lobbies. The Govern-
ment will send an eminent lawyer to
Northampton to investigate the boot -
makers' grievances.

SENSITION
AT NEWMARKET.
T. H. Lloyd, a Prominent Bar.
rister, Was Arrested,
Asserted That Bogus Mort-
gage Figures in Case.
Many Creditors Said to be
on the List.
A Newmarket report: "That Thomas
Hiram Lloyd did receive $1,512.25 in
trust money and that he has refused
to aeount for same" is the charge con-
tained in it warrant issued last night
against T. Hiram Lloyd, of this towa,
one of the best known barristers north
of Toronto. Mr. Lloyd was arrested
by Chief Constable Anderson ai he
came from Toronto, and. was prompt-
ly taken bolero the 1Sfagistrate, Col-
onel Lloyd, and T. 3. 'Woodcock, and
arraigned. He was not asked to plead
or elect, and a,t his .own request was
remanded till Monday at 2 o'clock. Per-
sonal bail of $1,000 was given as well
as a bend for a like amount by the de-
fendant's father, Mr. David LloYd, Re-
gistrar of North York.
Farmers all over this section are in-
terested in the prosecution which is in-
tended to make Mr. Lloyd account for
the specific sum of over fifteen hun-
dred dollars. The defendant went
down to the city to -day, leaving be-
hind a lot of clients who have become
alarmed over the safety of their money.
The Crown officers here who are keep-
ing everything to themselves, were in
consultation to -day with half a dozen
widows and farmers who were clients
of Lloyd and had heard of his arrest.
One of these was Mr. Silas Toole, the
wealthy farmer who was gold-brieked
out of $5,000 only a few years ago
by it slick gentleman from Toronto, who
came out to buy his property at a
very high figure. Mr. Harry West,
the owner of the Willis farm up Yonge
street, stated to -night that he held
Mr. Lloyd's two receipts for $300 eaeh,
money which was supposed to have
been paid to an heir of the late Mr.
Willis. West said that he had seen
the person in question, who claims that
she did not receive the money. One
of the Crown officers, in speaking of
the arrest to -night, was of the opin-
ion, after consulting with everybody,
that Lloyd would have between $30,000
and $40,000 of trust money to account
for.
Barrister T. 3. Robertson, an ex -
Mayor of the town, is acting for the
A. Weddell estate, the executors
of which preferred the charge against
Lloyd. The charge arises out of money
advanced to Lloyd six years ago by the
executors of the estate, Benjamin
Fairbairn, and Robert II. Belfaey. The
money was supposed to halve been loan-
ed to a resident of Toronto, who, it was
said, gave a mortgage to Lloyd on pro-
perty in East Toronto and in the city.
Rumors have been rife recently that
all was not right, and it is said that
the executors went down to Toronto
and found out that no such mortgage
existed. It is true they received the
interest for the past six years from the
defendant. Mr. Lloyd was met on his
return from Toronto on Thursday night
by Chief Constable Anderson and the
solicitors for the executors, and his
inability to settle the claim resulted
in his arrest. On his appearance be-
fore the Magistrate he asked for time
to settle the matter. If given until
the fall he said he could realize on his
property and pay everybody who pre-
sented claims. Mr. Lloyd is the own-
er of the Sovereign Bank building here,
a forty acre farm, and a number of
houses, rented at good figuresh.o:Iebaylsao
claims to be entitled to a large sum
of money front property now
fraternal insurance society. The defen-
arit is about 35 years of age, and has
a wife and one child, He has been
practising here about twelve years, and
bas handled thousands upon thousands
of dollars for clients, who had the ut-
most confidence in his honesty and. in-
tegrity. Ile was a. very estinutble
young man and well known to the legal
profession all over the Province.
Mr. Lloyd is probably best known,
outside of Newmarket. in Toronto, where
he conaucted many cases in the courts
for his clients. He is a member of
the National Club there. His friends
say that if there had been any wrong-
doing he has got bebind in his ac-
counts owing to heavy losses sustained
by dealing extensivery in Le Roi and
War Eagle mining stocks, which turned
out the worst kind of investinents for
him. Mr. Lloyd took his arrest coolly,
and warned the executors of the Wed, -
dell estate in court that if he was com-
mitted for trial he would not pay one
cent. He did not admit any liability.
Crown Attorney Drayton, of Toronto, is
expected to conduct the prosecution in
t•ite Magistrate Court on ?Monday.
