The Suiu Islands.

1t is only within a few days that
the Sulu islands have figured in the
dispatches relating. to the peace nego-
tlat1ons at Paris. and it is due to this
fact that the mistaken renort arose that
the United States had Increased it's de-
mands upon Spain. The truth is that
there has been no change. but that
from the first the boundaries of the
fhiiipplhes We're so defined by latitude
and longitude in the propositions
which we made that the cession of the
Sulu group was included with the
Philippines.
The Sulu archipelago stretches
southwest from the southern coast of
Mindanao, the most southern of the
Philippine group proper toward
Borneo. 1t is variously spelled.
Mariners used to know it as the Sooloo
group, and it figures also as the Jolo
south by the Jolo or Sulu sea, on the
| northeast by Mindanao, and on the
west and southwest by Borneo. There
| are about 100 islands altogether, but
they have a total area of only $50
square miles. and are credited with a
population of $4,000. The larger islands
are thickly wooded. The chief island,
which gives it's name to the archi-
pelago, has a Spanish garrison, and the
Governor resides in the old capital.
which is fortified. The population of
the islands is mostly Mohammedan.
and is said to be tractable and indus
trious. Formerly the group consti-
tuted an independent state, in connec-
ton With Northern Borneo.
The islands are of no great value in
themselves. but they are of import
ance from their position geographical
ly. They are very wisely included in
the demands Of the United States, for
it would be impracticable for Spain to
maintain her sovereignty over them.
and extremely inconvenient for us to
have them pass into the hands of some
unpleasant and over-ambitious neigh

1t is easy to criticise the dead cap
tain of the Portland for going to sea
right in the teeth of a heavy gale, of
which due warning had been given.
But it must be conceded that a steam
er which sometimes, carries several
hundred passengers over a distance of
more than a hundred miles of open
ocean ought to be capable of outlivins
any gale that blows. Such steame r
the Portland was supposed to be. 1t is,
we think, fact that no regular vessel
of the present steam lines to the coast
of Maine has ever succumbed to sheer
stress of weather in the more than half
century during which this service
has been maintained. That one of the
latest, largest and most powerful of
these steamers should now be over
whelmed with the loss of all on board,
is evident of the tremendous power of
the storm.

1t is, doubtless, owing to the imita-
tive instinct of human nature that
since the cuhious case of candy poison
ing, traced to San Francisco, several
attempts at murder have been made
by drugged packages of eatables OF
drinkables sent to the proposed vic
Tins. An exercise of ordinary sense
should suffice to protect those at
tackled from these dangerous anony-
nous attentions, but, apparently. il
does not. The serious fact, however, is
that one attempt out of the ordinary
means of committing murder seems tl
have strange suggestive power, that
is quickly shown in train of similar
attempts.
