lEkRY's HEoRlc MEASURES.
rrsars ON Guam Who Resisted Laws
Given Free Transportation.

WASHINGTON, Oct 80, 1Sss.-The Navy
Department has received a report from
e,antain Leary. the naval governor of the
island of Guam, in the Ladrones, which
has excited a good deal of interest among
the officials to whom 1t has been exhibited.
The President himself has read the re-
port. his interest being particularly at
tracted by the disclosure of the fact that
the FIRST American governor of the Islands
hos already been obliged to adopt heroic
measures to ensure a proper administra-
ton of affairs there.
Captain Leary, soon learned that his
authority as Governor was being Sub
verted an devery one Of the measures of
the reform which he proposed was being
defeated by the hostile influence of the
friars They resisted every decree no
matter Of what character. from spirit
~ ferse conversation, and a belief that
ANY disturbance of the order of things
vs,ich had governed the island for so
y, y, INV Years would cause them to lose
their hold upon the natives.
fter exhausting all other means TO
oyereome this influence, Captain Leary
rfports.t that he was obliged to notifw hal1
fflf f5nzen of the friars that they might
have free transportation away from
fs11arn and he should expect them to avail
fheT,, selves of the offer. That left but one
sria,s IN tl1e island, and he was a man
whose character and reputation was such
as to convince Captain Leary OF his Mt
ness to remain.
