REACHED A DECISION.
Statement Given Ous by Interstate Com
1nerce Commission as 1o Grain Export,

1norcc Commission as 10 Grain Export
The Interstate Commerce Commits
sion, in session at Washington yester-
| gay announced its decision in a case
involving relative rates on export and
domestic traffic in grain and grain pro-
ducts. The commission holds that, in
the absence of some justifying reason
1T would not be right for American rail
roads to permanently transact business
tor foreigners at q less rate than that
Tor which they render corresponding
service to Aneican citizens 7
AS to rates on export and domestic
shipments of grain, the commission de-
cides as follows:
Market conditions sometimes in case
of wheat. but seldom in case of corn.
may justify an export rate through the
port of New York somewhat lower than
the domestic rate. and Philadelphia,
Baltimore, Norfolk and Newport News
usually take rates which are certain
ul1ferentials below the New York rate
on both domestic and export traffic.
during the period of closed lake nayi-
cation the export and domestic grain
rates TO New York and the other ports
mentioned should ordinarily be the
Same.
Rates to other ports. including Bos-
ton and ports on the Atlantic north Of
Boston and Galveston, New Orleans
and other Gulf ports, may, perhaps. be
properly made lower on export than on
domestic traffic to enable them to COM
pete for The export business. Such an
adjustment OF rates would be 10 the
advantage of the carrier and just alike
to the American consumer and the
American producer.
AS the problem is primarily one for
the carriers rather than this COMMITS
sion, no order is made in relation to
TINS branch of the case. But export
grain rates Should not he less to the
seaboard from any point than from any
intermediate point on the same lire
AS to the rates on export flour. as
compared With export wheat, the COM
mission holds that public, policy and
good railway policy alike seem to re-
quire the same rate on export wheat
and export flour, but, in view Of all the
conditions shown in the investiga ton,
a somewhat higher rate on export flour
| than on export wheat is not in viola
ton Of that statute. The published dit
terence in rates is TOO wide and the
rate on flour for export Should not ex-
coed that upon export wheat by more
than cents per 100 pounds

EFFECTS OF THE STORM.

During the Hurricane.

How the People At Capo Hatteras Farad
During the Hurricane.
The people on Cape Hatteras, like the
Porto Ricans, We're rendered destitute
by the hurricane which swept the West
Indies and the Atlantic two weeks ago.
Most Of the residents of Hatteras are
homeless and unless something is done
Immediately to relieve them the distress
ON the little island will be almost as
great as it is in Porto Rico.
III The people Of Baltimore have taken
up the matter Of relief for these unfor-
tunate beings and it is probable that
a small ship load of supplies and snug
sum- OF cash will be sent to Eatteras
by the BaEtimoreans. The movement
TO relieve the distress there once start
ed. it is probable that other cities in
this vicinity will give assistance.

teras is, fully explained by a letter to

sPANIARDs SLAUGHTERED

LABUAN, British Borneo, January
24.-'fhe steamer Labuan, Captain
Pfort, whicB has arrived here, came
from the Island of Balabac, thirty
miles south of Palawan, Philippine Is
lands, and not from Palawan, as pre-
viously reported. The murder of Span
ish officers which she reported occurred
at Balabac. The Laubuan brought
siXtY-five women and children here.
They had been robbed of everything,
nut otherwise had not been i'll treated.
The Sulus assisted the Balabacs in
killing the Spanish officers. The Span
iardS left Palawan, where the natives
were fearful of the Sulus. Stores had
been looted, business was at a stand
still and the natives were armed and
ready for mischief.
a dispatch from Madrid on January
3rd said General Rios, the Spanish
commander of the Philippines, had ca
bled from Manila confirming the re-
port that all the Spaniards at Balabac
had been massacred with the exception
of the women, whose release was be-
ing asked for.
The Madrid correspondent of the
Daily Mail of London telegraphed
from Madrid the same day that in the
rebellion at Balabac, Naval Lieutenant
rebels had also murdered a doctor and
several other Europeans. A gunboat
was also said to have fired on the reb-
els. Its commander was unable to eff
feet the release of the women.

MIR. SMITHS CEMETERY SITE is
APPROVED.
Meeting of the Board of Health, Cabi-
net and Cemetery Association on the
Subject Yesterday.

There was an important meeting in
President Dole's office at o'clock yes
terday afternoon on the subject OF
new cemetery site. Present were the
members of the cabinet, members of
the board of health, and David Day
ton, representing the Oahu Cemetery
Association.
President Smith of the board of
health introduced the subject. 1t was
a disappointment that so many men,
bers of the cemetery association were
out of town and could not be present.
The Halawa site was presented in all
its details. 1t had the advantage of
being a good distance from town, and
the board of health had decided that
its general sanitary advantages COM
mended it as the most desirable site to
be chosen. A map of the site was pre-
sented and looked over.
The necessity for immediate action
in the matter was presented by Mr..
Smith. Nuuanu, Makiki and the Cath
olic cemetery on King street were be-
coming so crowded that they must pos
itively be closed before long, except to
persons owning lots there.
Although no conclusion was reach
ed the discussion was favorable to ths
project urged by W. O. Smith of hav-
ing the new cemetery at Halawa. Sat
isfactory arrangements have been
made with the Oahu Railway to trans
port funeral parties to and from that
place at a rate really below the cost ol
reaching Nuuanu cemetery
The board of health is particularly
unanimous in the Halawa idea and the
cabinet concurs. The one member OF
the cemetery association present alsc
agreed that it was the most tangible
and wise proposal yet presented
The next meeting of the three bodies
for the further consideration of the
scheme will probably be held next
