INDUSTRIAL COMMISSION.
Listens to a Statement of Opera.
tions OF Tobacco Workers.

WASHINGTON. Sept. %. - The In
dustrial Commission to-day listened to
a statement concerning the operations
of the Tobacco Workers. Union
from E. c. Evans of Louisville, KY,
founder of the order, and its Secretary
and Treasurer.
He said that about so per cent. of the
tobacco manufactured in the United
States was produced by the two COM
blnes known as the American and Con-
tinental Tobacco Companies, and he
expressed the opinion that such COM
binations were not beneficial to labor.
He cited one instance in which three
manufactures had been absorbed by
the American Company, resulting in
throwing between 800 and 600 employees
out of work. In another case wages
had been reduced from $3.50 to 81. %
per day after the consolidation
Mr.. Evans said that women stood on
the same footing as men in the union,
voting and holding office, and drawing
the same wages. He considered the
indifference of the negro to regular
hours or to systematic scale of wages
the greatest obstacle in the way of or
ganization in the Southern States
The commission will not meet again
to take testimony until October 9th.

CHINESE AND PHILIPPINES.
General Otis Reports the Situation
to the War Department.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 25.-Secretary
Root has received a cable message
from General Otis regarding the Chin
ese situation in the Philippines& He
says that the shipload Of 700 can be
landed without serious interference
with military operations.
General Otis discusses at consider
able length the subject of Chinese in
the Philippine Islands, and the dispatch
was referred to the State Department,
where it was made the subject OF
conference between Acting Secretary
Hill and the Chinese Minister
A settlemnt Of the general issue be-
tween the two Governments respecting
the admission of the Chinese to the
Philippines was not attained through
this particular incident which was con-
sidered disposed Of solely on it's own
merits.
The Chinese will be landed, but with
out recognizing the right of the Chin
ese Government to demand this. On
the other hand, the Chinese Govern
ment, while permitting the men to land
do not in any manner concede our right
to apply the Chinese Exclusion Act
to the Philippines, and stand by the
principles enunciated in the. formal
protest which was made last week by
the Chinese Minister here against Cen
eral Otis action.
The result of the conference between
Acting Secretary Hill, with whom the
War Department had rested the re-
sponsibility for the decision, and Min
lister WI, is set out in the following Of
fetal statement:
1.-The Chinese from Annoy on the
steamers Esmeralda and Salvadora.
about one-half of them being previous
residents of the Philippines, have been
permitted to land, owing to the special
circumstances of the case, on the prom
ise of the Chinese Consul General at
Manila that no more Chinese will leave
Chinese ports for the Philippines unless
qualified to land under the War De-
partment regulations
1t was stated that the Chinese Min
lister was satisfied with this action in
this particular case, although, as al
ready stated, he does not concede the
right of exclusion generally. The War
Department regulations referred to in
the above statement are supposed 70
be contained in the order made by Cen
raj Otis a year ago, declaring the Chin
ese exclusion laws to be in force in the
Philippines.
