was surrounded by friends, who over

her husbands recovery, to which she
snilingly responded.
At first the audience seemed TO be

AN OBJECTION.

IL is to be hoped that our authori-
ties will lay before President McKin-
ley the intense objection that the ter
ritory would have to garrison of ne
gro troops. The Hawaiians are GER
tainly averse to the idea, and every
one in the territory has an objection.
1t may be prejudice. but even prejudice
should be considered.
There are places where the negro is
liked, where he is understood. BY the
Hawaiian he is not liked and he is not
understood. In Porto Rico and in Cuba
there is no such objection as there is
here. The population of those Islands
is in part negro and mixed with negro
The Hawaiian has no affinity with the
negro in the slightest degree, and he
would regard it as a slur upon himself
to have the Islands garrisoned with
colored troops.
OF course the United States authori-
ties will do as they like, but the peo-
pie at the head of our affairs and
those who are in touch with President
Mckinley, should lay the matter be-
fore him as it appears to us here. Pres
ident Dole's views on the rumored pro-
posal have been publicly stated. He is
opposed to the use of negro troops for
the Islands

Miss Blanche Bates has made great
hit in New York, First she made a
success in the Great Ruby" where
she played the adventures, and she
has followed it by an even greater
success as Miladi in an adaptation of
Dumas Three Musketeers." When
Miss Bates was here with the Frawley
company, some of the city's great crit
les used to belittle Miss Bates work,
and regard her as a very third rate
actress. 1t is evident that those great
critics are not in accord with the best
taste of New York, for in the piece in
which she is now playing, it is Miss
Bates every one is going to see, her
acting having thrown the other char
acters in the shade, just as Sothern's
Dundreary became in his hands the
main character in a piece in which
Brother Sam was meant for the lead.

ADULTERATION.

If there is as much adulteration Of
food here as is claimed, why does not
the Beard of Health act? 1t has DOW
ers which can set the machinery of the
law in motion and the penalties run
from fine to Imprisonment. 1t seems
very little use paying for a food in
spector if we are to get nothing from
his services but a set of reports which
are read over before the Board of
Health and are then solemnly pigeon
holcd for future refer ence. That adul-
terated articles were sold we all know.
That their sale ought to be stopped
was conceded by every one, because if
they are deliterious they are a cheat
and should no more be permitted than
picking pockets or forgery.
The subject was we'll thrashed out
during the last session of the Legisla-
ture. Facts were there stated as to
the amount of adulteratlon not only
in food but also in liquors and drugs.
Some of the facts were found in COM
mites, but charges were made on the
floor of the house and remained uncon-
tradicted. The result of it all was that
an act was passed enabling the author
tiles to deal with the evil.
In consequence of the passage of
that act food inspector was appoint
ed He is a capable man, and has de
voted scientific care to the examination
of food both liquid and solid He has
reported unfavorably, but not a step
has been taken in the way of acting
upon his reports. Oleomargarine comes
in and is sold as butter, coffee has va
rious substances mixed with it, pepper
is adulterated and milk is watered. AS
the act reads the food inspector can
make no move towards prosecution,
unless the Boardfof Health authorizes
him. Why does not the Board. of Health
go ahead and authorize it's inspector
TO go ahead. Does it distrust its in
spectcr? If so it. had better get rid of
him. Or 10 it that it is afraid to pro-
coed, lest there might be unpleasant
entanglements? There ought to be
some action taken. The law should
not become a dead letter.

SAMOA.

1t is somewhat amusing to read the
kilograms about Samoan affairs in the
light which we now have upon them.
1t is evident that the instructions upon
which Admiral Kautz acted have been
kept very secret, and that the so called
information" is a series of guesses
founded upon probabilities. That there
should have been decisive action almost
as soon as the admiral arrived, is what
very few of the correspondents guess
ed. Even as late as March 20 the Ber-
lin correspondent of the Morning Post
says;
II am informed that Germany re-
CARDS the withdrawal of Chief Justice
Chambers from Samoa as imperative,
and that refusal on the part of the
United States to call him home would
be equivalent to the abandonment of
negotiations concerning Samoa"
What will they think when they find
that Chief Justice Chambers action
has been upheld, not only diplomatical-
ly, but by force of arms.

Tue chances of rapid transit are now
looking up. When the meeting of the
stockholders of the company has been
held and the information has been full
ly laid before them, it is probable that
steps will be taken to give US a prop
er system of transport shortly. The
mere fact that the rapid transit peo-
pie mean business has spurred up the
old tramways company. There are
more frequent cars, and the town near

new car appeared upon the rails. Rit
the service has been so bad that how :

MONDAY, APRIL 3, 1899.

There was no lack of investors for
government bonds, and this at time
when so much money is being put into
sugar stocks. When three people are
ready to take up each 100000 worth
of bonds, the market must be in a very
comfortable condition for the Minister
of Finance. 1t is quite easy to see why
small investors did not bid for the
$1,000; there is too much for them to
do with their money and they are all
looking for quick returns. But the
time will come when they will only be
too glad to seek a steady investment of
this kind. Government bonds are as
safe an investment as a man can make.

held by Aguinaldo as prisoners is a
very delicate one. The Spanish au-
thorities are willing to pay Aguinaldo
for their release. General Otis objects
TO any payment being made, because
as he justly points out, the funds so
obtained would be only so much fuel
to keep the insurgents fighting against
the United States. War is no respecter
of persons and once it is engaged in,
the question of ransoming prisoners
sinks into the background, when the
crushing of foe is concerned. 1t is
a difficult position to be placed in, but
there can be no doubt that General
Otis is right

There is a sign on the old boiler shop
of the Dickson Manufacturing COM
pany. on Penn avenue at Olive street,
stating that the property is for sale,
but the notice can at any time now be
removed The property will not be
sold, but will be used in a way which
will be of a decided advantage to this
city and the company.
It has been decided by the company
to fit up the old building for the pur-
poses of constructing machinery for
sugar plants. for which the company
has many orders, so many in fact that
the present quarters of the Cliff works
are far too limited.
For several days past workmen have
been engaged in cleaning out the old
building and putting it in shape for
the new machinery, which is now on
the way and will arrive in few days.
George w. Major. formerly super
intendent of the A. 3. Farquhar COM
pany, of York, this state, who has
been with the Dickson company
month, will be superintendent of the
new shop, and is now busily engaged
in arranging the details preparatory
TO commencing operations there.
To a Tribune man yesterday Mr..
Major stated that he will employ fully
eighty men at the outset who are eX-
perienced in the work. He has lines
out now for this number of men, whom
he expects to get from Harrisburg,
Lebanon, York and other towns.
When the new shop is in operation
the several shops which compose the
Cliff works will be used for boiler work
altogether. This change will not ef-
feet the large force now engaged there.

Iron and Steel Trade

Among the contingencies that affect
the international iron and steel situa-
tion, a high authority in the trade
mentions the possibility that our own
makers should find it wise policy to
make sacrifice sales abroad in order
to hold customers captured at a heavy
cost and to relieve our own markets
of a moderate surplus. Present in
dications, however do not seem 10
warrant this. But when prices began
to rise and the foreign market was a
little less important to our own makers
than it had been they were urged to
sell abroad, even if they had to take
less than at home, lest they should
lose the foothold in foreign markets
which had cost them a good deal Of
effort and which they would want the
next time the domestic demand weak
ened.
The German manufacturers are keen
ly alive to holding their export trade
at any cost. The Hagen Chamber Of
Commerce report for 1898 says: THE
Wire Tack Trust, which was organized
last fall, has begun its activity by ad-
vancing the prices for domestic con-
sumption. The orders from abroad
are carried out at sacrifcial prices,
but the sacrifice is borne by the COM
bine instead of by individual competi-
tors, as was the case formerly. The
syndicates in coal, pig iron and half
finished goods allow a bounty on all
kinds Of wire and wire tacks exported
which helps the manufacturers to COM
pete in the international markets"

More Changes.

Two more changes in the Delaware,
LaCkawanna and Western shops at
Kingston have been announced. Will
liam Dryden, who has been connected
with the shops since 1865, has been
transferred to the Scranton shops. Tr.
Dryden is one of the most experienced
machinists in this vicinity and was
foreman of the machine shops for
many years, both while Charles Gra-
ham, sr.. and Charles Graham, jr., were
master mechanics. During that time
he had charge of the construction of
nearly all the engines in use on the
Bloomsbury division and many IF
those on the main line. He will leave
Wednesday to begin his new duties.
Oliver Johnson, who has been
draughtsman at Kingston for a num-
Der of years, has also been transferred
to Scranton. Mr.. Johnson. in addition
to being one of the best draughtsmen
in the company's employ, is an ex-
pert machinist, and has acted as fore
man for some time. Mr.. johnson
learned his trade in Sweden and is
a thorough mechanic. He has made
the plans for many of the finest en-
gines on the entire Lackawanna sys-
TEN and is spoken of in the highest
terms by all his associates. Both
Mr.. Dryden and Mr.. Johnson have
many friends in Kingston who are
sorry to learn of their departure

bright avenue, who was arrested at the
instance of her husband. Albert Hen
derson, on a warrant issued by AL
derman John Lentes last Friday night.
charging her with assault and battery,
surety Of the peace and using prOfane
language, went before Alderman Howe
and waived a hearing and entered bail
on the first two charges.
Alderman Lentes fined her so on the
third charge. and yesterday her attor-
ney, b. F. Tinkham, secured permis-
sion from Judge Archibald to appeal the
case to the next term of quarter ses-
SiOns.
Mrs. Henderson claims her arrest
was due to spite on the part of her
husband, whom she had arrested on
August 15 for abuse, and when he was
released from the county Jail on Au-
gust !, he caused the warrants to be
issued.

The preliminary hearing in the in
junction case of the Scranton Railway
company against the city of Scranton
relative to the Company's right to con-
struct their tracks on Mulberry street
and Arthur avenue i'm forming a loop
in and out of Nay Aug Park, was to
have been held yesterday, but when
Everett Warren, who represents the
company, and City Solicitor Vosburg
met, Judge Gunster suggested that a
preliminary hearing be done away
with and the final hearing be held next
Monday
This proposition was agreed to by
both attorneys in view of the fact that
the public would be greatly inconven-
fenced If the matter was acted upon at
this time. The final hearing will deter
mine the legality of the company's
right to operate their cars on the
streets in question, and finally settle
the matter one way or the other.
