SECRETARY ALGER.s STATEMENT.
Mt. Longs Remark Merely an Ex.
preston of Personal Opinion.

Mt. Longs Remark Merely an Ex-
preston Of Personal Opinion.
Secretary Alger has made the following
statement in regard to the attitude OF the
administration on the Maine disaster:
1.-The statement of Secretary Long that
Spafns official participation in the disaster
to the Maine had been practically eiimi-
mated was merely an expression of personal
OPT 1ion on his part. 1t is an injustice to
him, as well as to the administration, to
give an official significance to his express
sion when he was particular at the time TO
emphasize the fact that he was speaking
simply as an individual. In the absence OF
official facts-and I can repeat what has
been said heretofore, that the public IN
equally as well Informed an the government
no member Of the administration can, OF
course, make an official declaration touch
ing Spain's responsibility. moral or other
wise. There Is not an iota of Information
AZ to the cause or origin of the explosion
upon which the government can at this
time form a conclusion or base q decision.
The verdict of the court OF inquiry on that
point must be patiently awaited
Secretary Alger also authorized the state
ment that no Official Information was being
withheld from the public: that the admin
fstration was adhering strictly to the pol
icy adopted by Secretary Long, with the
approval of the President, at the start, 10
give the fullest possible publicity to al
facts coming officially to the departments
bearing upon the loss OF the Maine.

Accomplished Through Diplomacy.

are yet not without valuable results. A
perfect understanding covering the whole
question involved was arrived at between
the United States, Russia and Japan. The
terms of this understanding contain the
very highest idea of comfy between ma
tons, and enforce lesson upon the entire
civilized world Of commercial wisdom and
foresight. 1t cannot be gainsaid that the
protection Of the seal herds, independent Of
all selfish consideration, is Of the utmost
Importance as d question in economy.
The British government declined to at
tend a conference with the other countries
interested in fur seal hunting, and subse-
quently declined to accede to the conven-
ton signed by Russia, Japan and the
United States. Yet 1t may be safely said
that the efforts Of the United States have
laid the foundation for a future under
standing which will lead to a cooperation
for the protection Of the seal herds and
the maintenance of the commercial inter-
ests which depend upon that preservation.
The position taken by the United States
respecting the seal herds has the indorse-
ment of the conscience of the civilized and
Intelligent nations of the world; and that
this Endorsement will in the near future
be carried out as the proper policy be-
tween nations can admit of little doubt.
Thus 1t may be said that the work accom-
plished by the United States in this connec-
ton has laid the foundation for success
and that 1t only remains for time to add
the details.
The work of reciprocity under the Dingley
tartn act. looking to commercial arrange
ments with foreign countries upon a basis
OF just and equitable methods Of interna-
tional business, was promptly inaugurated
by the present administration. and is pro-
crossing as rapidly as could be expected
The success already achieved augurs well
for the future, and gives the assurance that
arrangements Of the utmost value to our
commercial interests will be perfected
within a reasonable time. The Intelligent
and wise course laid down by the McKin-
ley administration for the prosecution Of
this work will assuredly work out the prob
lem Of reciprocity; and when 1t IL once fully
developed and understood by our people,
and its far-reaching effects are felt, as
they assuredly will be. by the people Of our
country, and other countries, then the wis
dom OF the reciprocity provisions Of the
Dingley bill, cordially fostered by the pres
emit administration, win be duly acknowi-
edged.
The Bimetallic Commission.
To meet the demands Of the people of the
United States, and to carry out pledges
made by. the party which placed the pres
emit administration In power, bimetallic
commission was appointed by President
Mckinley and sent upon It's mission to
bring about, II possible, an understanding
between the great m0neyed nations OF Eu-
| rope and our own. that would establish ir-
| ternational bimetallism. The work of the
commission was pushed with Intelligent
learnestness and great perseverance,, and

If Hawaii runs President Nc.
Kinley out of his job who will
then get his position We would
suggest this problem for discus.
sion by those trying to discover
whether Mr.. Dole is Presi-
dent, or governor, or chief
executive. Mr.. Dole has been
officially recognized by Pre-
sident Mckinley. He is the chief
executive head and that's the end
of it. The work of the COM
mission presents enough impor-
tant matters to keep all the active
brains of Hawaii busy without
wasting any gray brain fibre on a
matter of names. Saw wood gen
tlemen; don't stop to bubble.
Nothing ever was and nothing
ever will be gained by living in a
disgrunlted past.

this is an instruction given by

ley will undoubtedly not object to
having the job of nominating
pound keepers taken off his
hands.

REMEMBER The MAINE

Thing to know is that we are
gas and electrical engineers and
that we are here for business. We
install complete gas and electric
plants with all the fixtures, ETC.,
ready to run.
We handle all kinds of ELEC-
TRICAL GOODS, gas and cleo.
trio fixtures.
We are also sole agents for the
Columbia Photograph Co. and
American Battery Co. "makers of
the best storage batteries in the
world"
We have already installed the
following Aceytelene gas plants
complete with all fixtures which
are giving entire satisfaction.
Government Light House in har-
hor, Hawaiian Tramways Co, Mr..
W. Hits residence, Oahu Rail
way and Land Co. and the new
residence of Hon. G. W. Macfar-
lane at the Peninsula.
The light is absolutely reliable
and will not go out as long as any
gas remains in the generator.
The cost based on candle power
is from ] to J as cheap as electric
lights at the present rates.
Several of the plants already
installed are equipped with cleo
trio gas-lighting burners which
make the use of gas as convenient
as electric lights at about one half
the cost. A plant placed in your
house makes you independent of
lighting companies.
Our generator has received the
unqualified approval of the Homo
lulu Board of Underwriters which
does away with any increased rate
of insurance. Call in and examine
goods and get our prices. We
want only fair profit.
Remember that all our work,
big or little is absolutely guarsn-
teed and we replace and repair all
material and labor which is de.
fective within six months: Give
Us a trial order.

MATTER OF GAMBLING LAW.
Deputy Marshal ChiIiinR,vorth Raises a
Point on Che Fa.

Point on Che Fa.
The matter of the construction
of Section 3, Act 81 of the Session
Laws, San act to prohibit gamb-
ling and gaming" was brought up
by Attorney Chillingworth in the
police court this morning.
Section 3 read as follows:
every person who sells or buys,
gives or receives, has in posses
sion or in any manner whatever
deals with any ticket, chance,
share or interest, or any paper,
certificate or instrument purport.
ing or understood to be or to re
present any ticket, chance, share
or interest in or depending upon
the event of any lottery, is guilty
of misdemeanor."
Attorney Chillingworth holds,
in the case of che ia, for instance,
that it must be proven by the pro-
secution that a bank is in exist.
ence when the tickets are secured
by the officers of the law or these
cannot be said to depend upon
the event of any lottery" In this
view, it is understood, he is up
held by some of the highest In the
Department of the Attorney GEES,
eral.
Attorney Chillingworth already
has a case in the Circuit Court of
this very nature and the decision
in this case will of course be
given in the one that called up the
point again this morning.
Deputy Marshal Hitchcock
holds that it is not necessary to
prove the existence of a bank. II
is sufficient that che ia tickets be
proven by an expert to be under.
stood to be or to represent any
ticket, ETC." If it should be neces
sary each time case of the kind
happened to be before the court tc
prove the existence of bank, the
law might as well be stricken out

FOR EXTRA SESSION
Pop Caucus Votes That Way
in Topeka.
CALL TO BE ISSUED
Today BY Governor Leedy for
Next Tuesday.

After caucusing for forty-eight hours
the Pop leaders in Topeka last night de-
cided TO call a special session OF the leg
islature. 1t IS the purpose Of Governor
Leedy to issue the call today or tomorrow
and 1t will probably be tomorrow.
Senator Forney of Belle Plaine, who
went through mere Tuesday night on his
way 20 Topeka, said the call would be
issued on the 10Th, this being the date
named in tsle letter he had received from
the Pop state chairman. This statement
was made by Forney before the final vote
of the caucus, which was not reached
until nearly l o'clock last night.
The dispatches from Topeka, however.
say that Governor Leedy will Issue the
call today.
The Populist leaders responsible for the
issuing Of the call desire 10 enact several
Populist measures into law before the in
auguration of the Republican legislature
elected IN November. The Populist pro-
gram includes more stringent legislation
for the contro! of railroad rates, the crea-
ton of a system Of state fire insurance,
the creation of a guarantee fund to Sc
cure depositors IN state bands and the i'm
posing of a tax upon charters granted to
corporations. A majority of the members
OF the present legislature are believed to
have pledged their support of these mea-
sures, or at least part of them.

GOV. BARNES ON STATEHOOD
lie Does Not Think it Is Very Fear as
Vet

Governor Cassius NJ. Barnes was in the
city yesterday. To a reporter for the
Eagle who asked him in regard TO the
noarness of statehood, he said:
Il do not believe that statehood is very
near. IN my opinion congress will not
consider the question until the Indian
Territory is ready to go into the Union
with US, and both as one state. And the
Indian Territory will not be ready until
the Dawes commission finishes its task"
Reminded that the Dawes commission
was taking its time. he said:
But they viii complete their work in
time and the two territories Will be con-
sidered IN one statehood proposition"
What do you think there is in the plan
to admit Oklahoma az a state and attach
10 Oklahoma from time to time the In
dian nations as each arrives at condi-
ton warranting it?"
IN a former legislature" he replied.
~ Introduced a resolution TO that effect.
memOrializing congress- but the legisla-
ture did nothing with it. I now believe
that when we do become state it will be
with the Indian Territory"
Asked about the reported purpose OF
Mr.. Bliss, secretary of the interior, to re-
sign, Mr.. Barnes said:
II hope that the report is not true,
although 1t may be. hope that Mr.. Bliss
viii remain in the office. II is vastly TO
our advantage to have man there who
has had two years experience with the
great west still under territorial form
Of government, and II you viii look at
the map you viii see that that portion of
The country makes up = considerable
area"
Asked If he had any idea as to Mr.. Bliss
successor, he said:
None at all; though I read in the
newspapers that the president is consid-
ering western man.
How would a Kansas man do? Some
of The Kansans might accept it,
IF ii comes to that" retorted Cover
nor Barnes. we have a few in Oklahoma
who wouldn't object themselves"
