GUARANTEEING.
Several Papers Read at the Convention
in Mobile, Ala.
Resolutions introduced for the Establish
menU of a Uniform System OF Quarantine
and Health Laws - Line Between
State and National Quarantine.

MOBILE, Ala, Feb. 1I-There was
added attendance at the quarantine
convention Thursday. The first paper
read was on Quarantine as it Affects
Personal Rights" by Prof G. ID. Sands,
of the law department, University of
Mississippi. He defined to what ex-
tent quarantine law can go without
coming in conflict with constitutional
rights of citizens; the action of such
law if extremely limited. The paper
was discussed by Judge H. A.
Austill, of Mobile, A. L. Nc
Leod, of Mobile. DIR. w. H. Sanders,
state health officer of Alabama, read
paper upon National, State and Local
Quarantines, How Best to Adjust Their
Differences. He held that there must
be harmony between the national,
state and local quarantine, and har-
mOny would be promoted by making
the state supreme in its own borders,
the function of general government
being to aid and to cooperate with
state authorities. The system
he advocated is a national bu-
reau of public health, in
which all states would have voice
and all states have equal rights in
making rules and regulations. Under
such regulations a complete system of
local quarantine can be organized.
DR.. Sanders outlined details of his
plan, and in conclusion expressed
his strong objection to placing
all power in officers directed by
a central head far removed from
the scene of action. Discussion
of this subject followed. Mr.. Farrer,
of New Orleans, introduced a resolu-
ton calling for national marine
quarantine, assisting state maritime
quarantine; second, for an interstate
compact establishing a uniform sys-
TEN of quarantine and health laws;
third, for the ceSSiOn to United States
auth critics over localities where placed
the national quarantine station;
fourth, for definition for d line be-
tween state and national quarantine.
Referred to the committee on resolu-
tionS.'
The committee on resolutions report
ed at the aftern Don session a reSOlu-
ton approving the passage by congress
of an anti-vivisection law. After some
discussion a motion to table was lost
and the res OlutiOn was adopted.

New YORK, Feb IA dispatch to
the World from Madrid says:
A formal statement of regret at and
censure of Dupuy De Lome's conduct,

treaty, will be made by Foreign Minis
ter Gullon Immediately following the
gazetting of the royal decree accepting
Senior De LOme's resignation and APP
pointing his successor as Spain's
representative at Washington.
On the other hand, the Washington
correspondent of the World says that
Spain has not disavOwed responsibility
for the utterances of Senior De LONE
and does not consider that any dis
claimer of that character Is necessary.
From SPANS point of view the incl
dent is closed, not only as to De LOme's
reflections upon the president and the
American people, but as to his declara-
ton that autonomy is a mOckery and

WASHINGTON, Feb 12.-The war de-
partment Friday made public the adj
vices received from Capt. P. H. Ray, of
the Eighth infantry, who was sent to
Alaska to report on the conditions in
the mining country. The reports en-
brace period running from October
8 to November and are dated from
Circle City and Fort Yukon. They
show very serious state of affairs,
that trouble is threatened at various
PAebOOo oL4O CAAcLO C11CIC ID SGT1OuS OdnOGT
at some points of lack of food
owing in large measure to the failure
of the transportation companies to get
in sufficient supplies. In a report
dated Circle City, October 3, Capt Ray
recommends, should the department
decide to establish post on the Upper
river, that the mouth of Mission or
American creek be chosen as the site
with sub-pOst if necessary at Circle
City. The best interests of the service.
he says, requires permanent garrisons
to be located well away from mining
towns, so that the troops if required
to act will not be biased by local in
huence.

WASHINGTON, Feb. IA number of
members of the senate committee on
foreign relations favorable to the
Hawaiian annexation treaty held an
informal meeting IN Senator Frye's
committee room Friday for the pur-
pose of considering the future course
to be pursued with reference to the
treaty. The meeting resulted from Sena-
tor TellerS suggestion made in eXecu-
tive session few days since that the
treaty should be abandoned, as much
because of the lack of votes to pass it,
and that annexation be accomplished
through the means of direct legisla-
ton. There was a thorough discussion
of the situation at Fridays meeting,
the result of which was a decision to
find an early method of determining
the strength of the annexation senti-
ment. Accordingly Senator Davis will
make an effort to get the treaty up in
the senate next week with the view OF
exhausting the speeches as soon as
possible. He will then attempt to Sc
cure test which will reveal the vOt.
ing strength of the friends of the
measure and locate the senators now

stormy passage from Key West to Ha-
vana, says the Havana correspondent

nailed the Maine for medical assist
ance All efforts to resuscitate En-
sign Breckenridge were futile. The
body was sent by the Cushing to Key
West Saturday.
The Cushing left Key West Friday
morning with stores for the Maine.
She pitched heavily in a fearful sea.
She slowed engines at one o'clock in
sight of the coast of Cuba. Immedi-
ately afterward Ensign Breckenridge,
who was stationed forward was car
ried off his feet by heavy sea. He
clutched the lifeline as. he was swept
aft. The line parted. however, and
Ensign Breckenridge went overheard.
Seamen Everett and Coppage started
to go to the rescue in lifebOat, but it
was swamped in lowering and the men
we're thrown into the water.
Ensign Brecllenridge's strength was
fast failing, as he was encountered
with heavy oilsl1in boots. The Cush
ing was running through the sea del
uged from stem to stern. As BreclIen
ridge was going under the cook, Dam
iel ASlzins, went overheard to the res
cue. The Cushing finally obeyed her
helm and swung around and manOu-
Yered near the men in the water At
kins, Coppage and Everett were res
cued by lines, and Ensign Beecken-
ridge was taken on board in the same
manner, Atkins fastening the line to
him.
On the arrival in Havana the Names
surgeon was ashore. A message was
sent DR.. Burgess, Burgess said it was
doubtful if medical aid, if available,
could have saved the ensign. Lieut..
Gleaver, commander of the Cushing, is
heartbrozen.
Breckenridge's father is inspector
general of the army in Washington.
The chief officer of the customs has
asked the general government if he
has the right to collect customs duties
on the provisions brought by the Cush-
ing to the Maine.

WATER MAINS BREAK.

There were two breaks in the water
pipe near Luakaha. Nuuanu, last
night, due to the heavy rains. The
force of the flow in the pipes had n
tendency to straighten them at the
curves, the ground Offering no resist
ance to this force. On account of this
it was found necessary to shut down
portion of the flow through the
pipes for fear of more serious breaks.
This made it necessary to shut down
portion of the electric light plant,
as the water is used for power before
it goes into the mains.
