MAJOR MOORE WILL REMAIN
No Change Contemplated in the superinten-
dency Of Police.
A New Head of the Detective Force
May Be Named Within
O Week.

There Is no doubt that the police force
will be reorganized to some extent within
a short time, but Major Moore will retain
his position. Commissioners Wight has be-
come satisfied that the poor showing made
not been due to Major Moore. He has
found out for himself the. many obstacles
that have been put in the. way of the
major, and has set about to remove them.
Commissioner Wight took the occasion
this morning to send for Major Moore and
assure him Of his friendship, and convince
him he had not considered q change in his
office.
Commissioner Wight says he doesS not
believe Major Moore has had a fair chance
to demonstrate his ability to- govern a
police force. 1t Is his purpose and desire
to reorganize the force in accordance with
the wishes of the major, and when, at
length, the reorganization is complete, to
turn Its management over to him and give
him the opportunity Of showing what he
could do If permitted to dictate changes,
which he has always thought necessary for
the good of the service.
The 1ull which usually follows storm IS
the condition that is beginning to pervade
the police force, after the accounts of pro-
posed changes. .,.ar f..
From all appearances, there will be a
new head OF the detective department with
in week. At first it was thought the
place would be filled by an outside man.
but Commissioner Wight has found a DO
!iceman on the force whom every one be-
neves would make an ideal chief of de-
tectlves. He has the strongest indorse-
ments as to ability and integrity, and it is
believed he will make q capital mead of this
important department.

IF annexation is defeated Hawaii will
put her foot down. She will then be ready
to negotiate with Japan, England or any
other country. About one-fourth of the

THE McCoRD CLAIM.
Its Settlement Again Being Pressed
Upon Peru.

Its Settlement Again Being Pressed
Upon Peru.
With the arrival in this country of the
new Peruvian minister our government has
begun to press again for q settlement of
the old McCord claim against Peru, which
has been standing for nearly twelve years.
Mr.. McCord is an American railroad en-
gfneer and superintendent. He is from
Pennsylvania. and is still living In Peru.
During one Of The periodic revolutions In
that country he was imprisoned by she
revolutionists, brought out before file
CT soldiers to he shot. and his execution
only prevented by the action of the foreign
consuls In raising subscription to pay a
McCord. The revolutionists coming into
possession Of the government. assumed
all liability for suoh injuries to foreign
residents. but this claim of McCord has
been pending twelve years without an end.
Last December Secretary Olney sent an
urgent dispatch to the United States min
ister at Lima for presentation to the Pc
ruvian government demanding the payment
of the indemnity of $4,000. Probably this
was one Of the reasons why the Peruvian
government sent minister to Washing
ten after allowing the country to be with
out representation here for a long time.
The last phase Of the case is the preseuta-
ton to this minister OF another note reiter-
ating the demand for a settlement Of the
claim. In courteous, but decided language.
which does not permit Of argument on the
merits Of the case at all.

A SUPREME COURT RUMOR.

Justice Fields Retirement and At
tOrney General Mckennn's Promotion
A ripple was created upon the summer
days stagnation in official circles today
by the RI NOR that Associate Justice Field
of the United States Supreme Court would
retire in few weeks. and that Attorney
General McKenna would be appointed his
successor, with Mr.. Henry Hitchcock of
st. Louis. president of the American Bar
Association, to succeed him. No official
confirmation could be obtained of any
branch of this triple-headed rumor.
The report of Justice Fields retirement
is periodical in its appearance, but this
trip it is a little ahead of time. This
is due to the fact. it is thought, that Jus
tice Field will complete upon August 1G
the longest term of service Of any member
of the Supreme Court He will exceed the
record of Chief Justice Marshall by one
day. 1t is known that Justice Field has
long cherished the ambition to roll up the
by any man who sat upon the Supreme
berch.
1t is possible, therefore, that the ap-
proach of the date upon which this am
bition is to be realized has caused the
ancient rumor of his retirement to appear
again with a fresh train of intended cor
roborative circumstances. Like the an
nouncement of the positively last appear
revivified rumor of the great jurist's retire
ment is received with caution, especially
in his absence from the city.
In well informed circles the statement
that Attorney General McKenna is to be
appointed to fill the vacancy on the ST.
prene bench, If it occurs is received with
a grain of salt also. The assumption
that because Justice Field represents the
Pacific coast in The Supreme Court his
successor shall be selected from the same
section is said to be a violent one and con-
trary to President Mckinleys expressed
opinion. 1t is reported that the President
has said that since the creation of the
Circuit Court of Appeals the majority of
California's cases are settled before they
get to the Supreme Court and therefore
the state has not such an interest in the
Supreme Court in former years.
Attorney General McKenna who is still
in the city, although he expects to visit
the President next week, processes to be
unaware of either the intention of Justice
Field to retire of his own promotion i'm
the event of the creation Of a vacancy.
In some quarters today the gossips held
that Judge Day, assistant secretary of
state. would be at the head of tile list of
persons whom the President would take
under consideration in the event that oc-
casion should arise to fill any vacancies
In high positions.

CINCINNATI. Ohio. August A special
to the Cincinnati Enquirer from Massillon.
Ohio, says:
The Hawaiian government decided on

dence permits to Chinese. This practical
exclusion following the lines of American
legislation means much to American Ia
borers. The foregoing fact. obtained from
indisputable authority by Watson H. Wy
man and mailed to San Francisco. was
telegraphed to this city last night. Mr..
Wyman also sends the following impor-
tant and exclusive Information from Hon
olulu:
To Import Negro Labor.
II am able to state that there is in con-
temptation a plan for stocking the islands
with colored laoorers from the cane plan
tations of the United States. No white
lab3rer can stand the canefield work, nor
the work on the rice plantations. nor the
humid climate here. 1t speaks volumes for
the patriotism of the islands that they are
ready to make "a contract today. when an

result in the gradual diminution of Japan

PLAYING DIPLOMACY.
Japanexe Trying to Best This Conn.,

Japanese Trying to BEST This Couu-
try I'm the Hawaiian Matter.
The japanese are playing diplomacy with
all their skill in an effort to get the best
Of this country in the Hawaiian matter.
1t was announced some days ago that
Japan would accept the proposition of
Hawaii to submit to arbitration the ques-
tion in dispute between those two coun-
tries as to the landing of Japanese immi-
grants. 1t appears now that the Japan
ese are trying to so shift this matter as
to have arbitration conducted with the
sanction of the United States, thereby
fixing an implied obligation upon this coun-
try to fulfill after annexation any condi-
tions that might as a result Of the arbitra-
ton be imposed upon Hawaii.
The State Department, however, is not
goirg to place this country in such a posi-
ticn. and whatever settlement is effected
between Hawaii and Japan, il any, must
be without any sort of relation to the
question of annexation and cannot put
any obligation upon this country.

YELLOW FEVER.
A Probable Rapid Increase Among
the Spanish Sailors.

the Spanish Sailors.
In his last report to the surgeon general
OF the marine hospital service, Dr. Bruner.
sanitary inspector for the service at Ha-
vana, dwells upon the probability of a
rapid increase of yellow fever among the
Spanish sailors. He says that up to recent
date there were no cases among the SAIL
ors OF the Spanish navy, but that lately
several have appeared. He attributes this
to the fact that some of the war ships have
gone to the navy yard. which is in close
proximity to the military hospital and the
Iallapiedra wharf, which is In bad condi-
tion There are" he says. seven or eight
war vessels now in the harbor, and their
complement must aggregate 1900 men,
many of whom, learn, are not acclimated.
This being true they Will be doubly exposed
to the danger. of contracting the disease,
being in close proximity to the worst in
fected wharves Of the city," He adds that
the report from the military hospitals show
that yellow fever is decreasing. DR.. Ca
1ninero, inspector at Santiago. says there
are 2.OOO Spanish soldiers sick there of
various diseases.

PRINTING OFFICE CHANGES.
What Capt. Brian Says About tn
Proof Readers.

According to Capt. Henry T. Brian Of
the government printing office, there is no
truth in the report that nine proof readers
in the Record Office have been removed
on account Of partisanship. They were
ordered to report to him as foreman this
morning. but simply because the work in
the Record office has been finished. and he
stated this alone necessitated the change.
Work in the Record Office" Capt Brian
said, always ceases soon after Congress
adjourns. There was simply no work for
the proof readers. and they have been as
signed to general work.
Instead of their being all democrats. I
an certain that they are not. Any report
that the change has been made on account
OF partissnship is a misstatement."
I, those who were ordered to report to
Capt. Brian this morning are:

A Most Important Announcement.
"Of far greater consequence than the
Inclusion of new classes Is the virtual an
nouncement the President makes that the
existing classification viii remain practf-
cally unimpaired. During the past FIVE
months the demand for modifying order
has been clamoroua and unremittirg.
Probably on no other executive has so
great an amount Of pressure been brought
In the hope of accomplishing single OBJ
ject. How well the pressure has been re-
sisted Is now quite apparent. Finally, by way
of answer, we have the order Of July q
The President fulfIl1s his pledges literally.
He declares that he will maintain the law
rather than weaken it, and that instead
OF limiting Its operation he VIII extend It
where extension is practical. The sug-
gestion that Mr. Mckinley settled on this
policy only after he had noticed the popu-
lar disapproval with which reports Of mis-
intention to do otherwise had been re-
ceived is quite unfair to him. I have
on this subject during the past few
months. On the "a day. Of July, week
before these reports were published, he
assured me positively that no changes of
serious character would be made. and that
the exceptions other than those recon-
mended by the civil service commission
would be confined to isolated cases in
which, owing to peculiar circumstances,
an exception might seem necessary: When
again saw him on then24th he spoke in
the same encouraging way, adding that he
would seek to improve and extend the
system rather than to restrict it.
II do not believe that at any time since
the 4th Of March the President has intend
ed to do anything but what he now has
done. I believe, moreover, that with the
order Of July 27 as an earnest OF Mr.. Nc
Kirleys disposition and purposes, it is
to be expected that this administration will
carry the reform of the civil service very
near to completion, and that for that ac-
complishment it will be- remembered his
