The sanitary condition of llava-

American military authorities
which will prove exceedingly diff
fcult to solve. The death rate is
enormous, and thus far all that

city seems to have been of little

1t is probable that during all the
years of its occupation by the
Spaniards-in other words, since
the foundation of the city-Iava.

governments of countries like
Spain to pay little attention to
matters of this kind--matters
which receive in countries under
Saxon rule the closest scrutiny.

sanitation. Consequently the city

OUR NAVIGATION LAWS

Republic.
Recently a Philadelphia paper
contained the statement that 1000
tons of cas-: iron pipe had been
shipped from that city to London
in a British vessel. Why was it
not shipped in an American vessel!
Questions like this are being ask
cd all over the country. Their rep
etition will aid in directing public
attention to the hurt done by Re
publican legislation to the shipping
interests of the country.
American shipyards have turn
ed out some of the best war yes
sells in the world. The reason
they do not turn out the Lest mer-
chant vessels is due to the fact
that they have not been forced to
do it by the pressure of competi-
ton.
We are leading the world in
the manufacture of iron and steel.
A modern ship is simply Il manu-
facture of iron and steel. We
can manufacture it on this side of
the Atlantic more cheaply than on
the other. But we never shall az
long as the navigation laws which
hamper American shipbuilding
are continued by the party of class
legislation now in power.
The ship building companies are
basing all their business calcula-
tions upon these hampering stat
utes which provide that Americans
shall neither own nor operate ships
which Americans have not built.
If these restrictions were repeal.
ed; if American individuals or
companies were allowed to 90
abroad and buy ships wherever
they couldget them best and cheap,
est; if they were allowed to reg,
lister and operate them under our
shipping laws as vessels Of the
United States, the millions that
now so to enrich the ship owners
of England for carrying our ex.
ports and imports would find thcil
way into the pockets of American
citizens. The same impulses that
are forcing our iron and stccI
fabrics into every form of mann
factured utility all over the world
would take hold of the shipbuild.
ing industry, and it would forge tc
the front, defying Old WorlC
competition as successfully as have
so many other lines of American
manufactures. There is no sount
economic reason, with the shac;
les of archaic laws removed. VIII,
we should not be selling American
ships abroad at a profit as well a

might arise if strict compliance
with civil laws were requisite.
1t is understood that the medical
department of the army will CO.
operate with the other military
forces, and that sanitary measures
will thus be enforced in accordance
with recognized medical standards.
Gen. Greene, who is in command,
seems to be a capable officer, able
to enforce orders which his good
sense will show to be necessary to
put the city in good sanitary
condition.
But for permanent relief from
existing evils, it will be requisite
to construct an extensive sewer
system. This will require time
and the expenditure Of large sum
of money. But it will be worth,
in the greater healthfulness of the
place, all that the work will cost.
American occupation will be a
blessing to Cuba and indirectly to
the gulf cities of the United States
if it leads to complete renovation
Of Havana and the adoption of
permanently valuable sanitary re-
forms.

DISTRIBUTION OF SCHOOL FUNDS.
opinion From Solicitor General Regarding
Section 1913, Compiled Laws
of 1897.

Santa Fc, n. NJ, Dec 8, 1898.
Hon. NJ. G. de Baca, superin-
tendeut of public instruction, city:
Dear sir--Your favor of this date
asking a construction of section
80, chapter %, session laws, 1891,
"School Law" rs amended by
chapter 50, session laws of 1898,
compiled as section 1913, Compil-
ed Laws, 1897, with regard to the
disposition Of "tcmporary funds
for common school purposes"
with reference to whether the
money collected in any one school
district under these sections shall
be distributed among all the school
districts in the precinct, has had
my attention, and in reply would
say, the section referred to was
construed by our supreme court
in the case of the Board of Educa-
ton VS.. Tafoya, 6 New Mexico
292. in August, 1891, before it
was amended by chapter 56, laws
OF 1898, in which it was held that
all of the license money collected
in the town of Las Vegas should
60 to the public schools of thai
town, and the reasoning of the
court in that case would apply to
the one suggested by you. 1t will
be noticed that the original section
35, in the last paragraph, express
ly provided that if there were
more than one school district in
any precinct, the amount should
be divided among the several
school districts, pro rata, while
chapter 50 of the laws Of 1898,
amending that section leaves out
that provision. This was evident
Iy done with the deliberate intent
to change that portion of the law
so as tc give the school district
within which the ''temporary fund.-
arose the full benefit Of twothirds
of that sum, without having to
share it with any other school dis
trict within the precinct where the
fund originated.
| would, therefore say that two
thirds of the money collected un-
der any of the provisions for II
''temporary" school fund should
be distributed to the district in
which the same originated and that
the other school districts in the
precinct are not entitled to share
therein.

Damages for Death.

Eli Tucker, of Hartford county,
who was convicted of manslaughter
for shooting and killing Uriah
johnson on April 1, 1898, is prac-
tically on trial again for the homi-
eide in the Court Of Common Pleas,
of Baltimore. Evidence as to the
killing is being heard in suit for
$15, 900 damages brought against
Mr.. Tucker by the widow and six
children of Mr.. johnson.
The shooting occurred at Bynum
Station, and johnson died two days
afterward. 1t grew out of a diff
ficulty between johnson and An
drew Reynolds, assistant station
agent and brother-in-law of Tucker,
over the payment by Johnson of
demurrage on four carloads of tin
cans,
The suit for damages was insti-
tuted after Tucker had been con-
victed and sentenced to six months
in Jail and to pay the costs of his
prosecution. 1t is said to be the
first case of its kind in Maryland,
although similar cases have arisen
in other States. The suit is under
what is known as Lord Campbell's
act, an old English statute, which
became incorporated in the Mary
land law in 1872, in what is known
as the general statute of negligence.
This statute permits actions for
damages for the killing of persons
through negligence or any wanton,
wilful and unlawful act. Under it
railway companies are sued for the
killing of persons by the cars.
Prior to its passage the law was that
when man died all the rights de-
pendent on him died with him.
