was occupied In agreeing upon a basis on
which to advance lumber rates and ar

ing at which a larger attendance is ex-
pected, to advance iron rates and arrange
divisions preliminary TO the general adj

general freight agents in attendance were
much in earnest. apparently, to place
freight rates, which have got down to such
a low level. on a higher basis. which will
leave something to the roads above actual
cost OF hauling. Every freight official con-
versed with spoke of business being limited

possibly with the close Of navigation cars
in considerable numbers would be sent west

in service between Buffalo and other lake
points and Eastern export points.

NO ROOM FOR COMPLAINT
INDIANAPOLIS SHIPPERS HAVE su-
PERIOR ADVANTAGES.
Presidents May Defer the Rate Meet
fng-McetiDg I'm This City to Adj
vance Lumber and Iron Rates.

Recently a large shipper of indianapolis
remarked that local business men do not
appreciate how much better off they are
matter Of getting cars to load. At Indian
apolis If a man wants ten cars he is sure
to get five or eight within a reasonable
time, while at even quite important way
stations shippers are not able TO get one
car where they could load ten. A freight
official said he feared this neglect Of way
stations was an unwise policy, as when
business is dull these stations are really
urged to load cars. At eight out of ten
way stations If a shipper gets a car to
load his grain or stock once or twice a
there are 100 to 80 loaded cars carrying
higher-class freight received daily, and so
great Is the demand for cars that an agent
at this point would not listen to sending
one car to a way station to be loaded.
The agents platforms are loaded with de-
layed freight much of the time and how to
distribute cars to keep shippers In good
humor is his chief employment. Business
or rate is of little Importance, so eager
are shippers for cars. There are some lines
of business in which it is much more inn
portant than others that cars be furnished.
A manufacturer of cans for fruit had
urgent orders for IAN n he wanted TO
load ten cars in one day, but with the
greatest exertion only five could be fur
nished. There are other lines of trade in
which the matter Of getting cars promptly
is of great Importance in a fnancia way.

question of regulating the dress Of sew
afal millions of Filipinos. who do not
wear trousers. While the Gag will
cpver them in a certain metaphorical
sense, and sufficiently so to permit the
professional orators to declare that
those heather are clothed in the Stars
and Stripes, there will still remain the
fact of physical nakedness, which no
figure of speech will cover. An arbi-
trary decree that two millions of peo-
pie must assume trousers in the pre-
sence of the Goddess of Liberty, may
invite distressing question as to con-
stitutional rights. II member of the
wild tribes Is imprisoned for refusing
to wear trousers, the Supreme Court
of the United States may be able to add
another brilliant and learned decision
to its Reports, on the Rights of Man.
The imprisoned heather will find
warm sympathizers in these Islands,
who will urge that in coming under
the flag, no man enters into a penal
contract to wear breeches.

THE GALlClANS RELEASED.

Under the circumstances, the en-
ployers Of the Galicians, who have been
imprisoned for refusing to observe
their contracts, should have released
them long ago. 1t is useless to COM
ment on the conduct OF Congress in
approving and making our municipal
laws, which enforce penal labor con-
tracts, the laws Of the United States
governing this Territory. The employ
ers of the Galicians were at fault in
importing these undesirable laborers,
and the loss that results from 1t, is
merely the damage which comes from
their own error, although 1t was unin-
territorial and almost unavoidable.
The release of the Galicians will pre-
vent the occurrence of a thrilling his
torical incident in the room of the
Supreme Court Of the United States, in
which Counsellor Gear proposed to
make that court face about on the Con-
stitutional question. At the same time,
he will have leisure to call on the
President and make him face about on
the same question.
The Hawaiian gazette., 1899-09-05
DlSLOYAL REPUBLICANS.

The disloyalty of many Republican
journals to the Republican President OF
the United States Is not gratifying as
pect of a republican form Of govern
ment. The brigadiers Of these journals
insist on running the Philippine cam
paign instead Of leaving 1t to the Presi-
dent, his Cabinet, and the trained men
OF the army and navy departments.
Gen. Otis Is declared to be an incom-
petent general by these brigadiers in
ink strategy, but the President refuses
to listen to their advice and orders, just
as President Lincoln refused time and
again to obey the orders OF the briga-
diers of the press in 1868. They are
grieved.
Mr.. Schurman, one OF the commits
sioners dispatched by the President to
negotiate with Aguinaldo, says: 1T Is
well to bear in mind that the President
understands the situation better than
any one else can possibly do, inasmuch
as he is in the receipt Of information
from a variety Of sources, civil and
military, and has the judgment Of ex-
perts upon the facts reported
But these several hundred brigadiers
in newspaper strategy, 40 not propose
to be put aside by any such apparently
reasonable views. They claim to be
the representatives Of the people, and
the people rule. There Is no consider
alton shown to the President who Is
held responsible for the acts OF his
subordinates.
Congress failed to give the President
ample power and means for crushing
the rebellion in the Philippines, and
plainly intimated to him that he must
be satisfied with what they had chosen
to give him.
He cannot tell the newspaper briga-
diers the truth about the campaign, be-
cause they will publish it at once, and
Aguinaldo will have the advantage
OF 1t.
However, the President will be sus-
tanned by the people. and he will sue
coed In his management OF the whole
affair. He will keep Gen. Otis in com.
mand until he is satisfied that some
other arrangement is desirable. The
loyal Republicans will trust the Presi-
dent, even II he does not show that
marvellous hind sight" that the briga-
diers possess.

TRUSTS AND STRIKES.

The Trusts and the labor strikes are
educating the people, and, in the end,
there will be an adjustment OF these
conflicts. The Trusts boycott the small
merchants and traders. The recent
railway strike in Cleveland, boycotted
the same class Of men, by forcing them
to abandon travel in the street cars.
Both Trusts and strikes operate on the
same principle. Both prevent men
from using freedom Of trade. The
strikers who boycott the merchants,
complain because the Trusts boycott
the small merchants. No theories or
book-learning will teach us how to live
and let live. Only the lesson Of ex-
perience. which forces man to think
out some way of preventing these un-
reasonable methods OF adjusting diff
culties, will bring order out of this
Industrial conflict.

THE ASSOCIATED CHARITIES.

Al the tramps increase in numbers
and the impositions on those who are
willing to aid the needy increase, the
usefulness Of the Associated Charities
IL clearly seen. Everyone who is APP
oiled to for aid should refer the appli-
cants, II strangers, to Mrs. Berger, who
resides on Hotel street, near DR.. Gross
mans Office. Her telephone number Is
6S7 and her address is postoffice
box 649.
The symptoms of the tramp move
ment are increasing, and the commun-
ny. In self-protection, should educate
itself into the proper ways of acting
promptly in the matter. The Society,
Of course, expects that generous people
will contribute to the local and church
aid societies, as heretofore, but will
take prompt measures to see that char
ity il not wasted on the undeserving.

WEARING TROUSERS.

One OF the grievances OF the YaQuis
Indians is the order of the Mexican
government, which requires the men to
wear trousers. when they appear In
the Mexican villages. 1t was a similar
request made by the early missionaries
in these Islands, that created in the
mind OF the native the belief that re-
ligion and trousers had an intimate
connection. DIR. Lindley, the noted
African missionary, often declared the
existence Of this belief.
One Of the American generals, sta
toned on the Rio Grande after the
Ciyil War. was invited with his stan
To banquet and ball In Mexican

SNORING CORRESPONDENTS.

1t is a rule in the proceedings of
courts martial in France that the ses-
sions of the courts shall begin at 6
o'clock in the morning. In the DreyfHs
case, this rule is strictly followed.
Ninety per cent. of the spectators in
the court room are newspaper cores
pondents. As these persons are engag-
ed in taking the evidence during the
day and In sending correspondence of
at an early moment, they are generally
busy until after midnight. Having in
sufficient sleep, they fall OF to sleep,
whenever there Is a suspension in the
taking OF testimony. A special dis
patch to q New York journal says that
whenever this incident occurs, or
whenever a witness Is inaudible. the
snoring begins, and a witness some
times testifles in a chorus of SHORES.
On one occasion, two journalists, while
asleep, dropped their heavy canes
which fell with a crashing sound on
the floor. The noise startled the
audience and the court who suspected
that it was connected with some dew
ilish plot, for a demonstration of some
kind was suspected.
The gendarmes, after this incident,
forbid the introduction OF canes and
umbrellas into the court room.
1t certainly detracts from the solemn
grandeur of the trial OF Dreyfus, which
the world is watching with the closest
attention. when chorus OF snores fills
the room, and the spectators Of the
most eventful trial known to history
cannot keep their eyes open. In the

When he offered this note in payment

1t was then taken to the United States

statement as to where 1t was OBJ
