Formal notices of ratification have been exchanged. President Roosevelt was first informed. Moteraoutchi, minister of war, has issued an order instructing the Jap anese army in the field to abstain from criticizing the terms of peace, on the grounds that the declaration of peace and of war are entirely the outcome of sovereign power. His order forbids thecriticism of either subject, especial ly by those engaged in military ser vice. He advises, the soldiers to utilize the opportunities of peace, after the dls bandment of their regiments, by en gaging In their respective occupations, Norway and Sweden Take Formal and Final Adieu of Each Other Stockholm, Oct 16.

CalhoW, The Mikado's Rescript Tokio, Oct. 16. The emperor today issued a rescript in reference to the conclusion of peace. It begins: "We have always deemed it a funda mental principle of our internal policy to maintain peace in the east and to assure the security of our empire. The promotion of these high objects have been our constant aim, but last year reason dictated the necessities of self preservation and we were unfortunate ly forced into hostilities with Russia." His majesty records the glorious suc cess achieved by the army and navy, the diligent performance of their du ties by the civil officials and the cheer ful manner in which the nation has borne the heavy burden of expendi ture, and adds: "The result is in a great measure due to the benlsrn spirit of our ancestors as well as to the de votion of the civil and mi'itary offi cials and the self-denying- patriotism of our people. After twenty months of war, the position of the empire has Washington, Oct. 16. The president, ttjday, through the state department, promulgated an executive order of im portance to every employee in the civil service of the United.EtAtes. . No ex planation of the underlying reasons for its issue is ffiven. The order is as follows : "No officer or employe of the gov ernment shall directly ir indirectly in struct or be concerned in any manner in the instruction of any person or classes of persons with a view to their special preparation for the examina tion of the United States civil service commission. ' - "The fact that any officer or employe is found so engaged shall be considered sufficient cause for his removal from the service. "(Signed) "THEODORE ROOSEVELT. 'Pet. 16, 1905." i The executive order issued today, which makes liable to dismissal from tho service any government employe who aids any person or classes of per sons in preparing for civil service ex aminations, caused much comment. No reason for the order is made public, but it is supposed that it has been discovered that government employes who are familiar with the examina tions have aided candidates. The new ruling will probably hit some of the schools where candidates are prepared and in which government em ployes are interested. Washington, Oct. 16. Secretary Shaw will probably recommend to congress in his annual report that an issue of $60,000,000 of Panama canal bonds De authorized, in addition to the $130,000, 000 already provided for in the Spooner law. . Mr. Shaw's idea is that the expense of the canal construction should be dis- ! tributedl over a long term of years in stead of being met largely by citizens of the present generation. The issue of $60,000,000 more bonds would re imburse the treasury for the amount already paid out of .current funds on account of the purchase from the French company ."'the payment to the republic of Panama and the $10,000,000 appropriation for beginning work on the waterway. . It is expected that there will be strong opposition to the plan, and the Republican majority in congress might hesitate, for political reasons, if for no other, to authorize the additional issue of bonds. The charge would probably be made by the opposition that the proposed issue was in reality a scheme for bor rowing money for ordinary expenses of the government at a time when the current expenditures of the govern ment tire exceeding the receipts. - Shot at Baptizing and Now Dead Charlotte.

New York, Oct. 16. James H. Hyda returned to town tonight and is at hla hime, 9 East Fortieth street. This is the first time Mr. Hyde hat appeared in New York state, at least publicly, since last July, when the in surance investigating committee began ' to send out subpoenas. Mr. Hyde has been in Newport the greater part of the time, although frequently he ran up to Boston. He came to town from that city tonight. There were no subpoena servers wait ing for Mr. Hyde at his home. Ho will not be subpoenaed by the Armstrong-committee, as he has promised to appear before the committee when ever his presence is wanted and tell , freely all that he knows -about ques tionable transactions in the Equitable. The committee probably will not call upon Mr. Hyde until next week at th earliest, as it is expected that the af; fairs of the? Mutual will engage th committee's time for several days. Mr Hyde is a much desired witness. Without him there are many things in the Equitable tangle that would never be cleared up. Mr. Hyde is deter mined, when he appears on the stand, to put himself before the public in aa favorable a light as possible and to demonstrate that he is not responsible for many of the irregularities" in th Equitable ' management the blame for which has been laid at his door. Mr. Hyde will explain In detail his relations to the $50,000,000 Union Pacifla "blind pool," and his statements in re gard to this transaction are sure ta furnish food for though to both Jacob H. Schiff and Edward H, Harriman. Not only will Mr. Hyde tell the com mittee all that he . knows, but William H.
