while President Kruger supports it.

spondent of the Daily Mail, President
kruger's resignation is regarded as q
cute move to create crisis for the
purpose of tiding over the interval un-

the penSioning of President Kruger in
order to allow the seizure of the cOun-
try.

billiards with Walston H. Brown his
son-in-law, and c. P Farrell his
brother-in-law and private secretary.
He seemed to be in better health and
spirits when he retired than he had
been for several days.
This morning he arose at the usual

IN a rocking chair. He leaned his
mead upon his hand, which rested on
the back of the chair. Mrs. Ingersoll
asked him how he was feeling and he
replied, 'tOh, better"
These were his last words. A second
after they were uttered he was dead.
The only sign noticed by Mrs. Inger-
soil was that the whites of his eyes
suddenly showed. There was not even
a sigh or a groan as death came Doc

ID. A. Ray Will Personally InveS-
tioate Profit Sharing Systems.

D. A. Ray, who is here on a special
mission to investigate the labor cOndi-
tions of the Islands, will leave for Ha-
waii next Tuesday. One of his object
i've points will be the Kona plantation,
where he will make a thorough study
of the proft-sharing system which is
there in operation. He was very much
pleased with the result of his investi-
cations on his Kauai trip. In his opin
ion there is a quite general desire,
more or less pronounced, among the
planters to do away with Japanese and
Chinese labor, if possible. This feeling
he thinks will result in gradual but
satisfactory solution of the labor prob
lem.
