CHICAGO, May 6.-Four meetings will
be held in this city tomorrow to express
approval of the policy of the government
in dealing with the situation in the Philip
pine islands. 1t was the original inten-
ton there should be but, one meeting, in

necessary to make arrangements for

tons are that there will be large at

the four meetings includes: Congress-

HAWAIIAN LABOR PROBLEM
Population of the Island VIII Soon
BE Largely AsIaffc.

AOPHAdtAOh Oh the Island VIII Soon
BE Largely AsInffc.
WASHINGTON, May 6.-Joshua X
Brown, United States Chinese inspector
at Hawaii, has made a report to the
commissioner general of immigration re-
lating to the introduction of Asiatic labor
into the islands. In the course of the
report he says that the executive council
is now earnestly considering the question
both with reference to the present needs
of the islands in their rapidly increasing
agricultural development, and as to the
erect that any attempt to meet the in
creasing demands for labor may have
upon their future relations to the home
government. This resulted In a notice
to the planters association that some
policy must be adopted looking to the
restriction of the present influx of as
sisted Asiatic laborers. The public Mr.
Brown asserts, is thoroughly imbued with
the idea that the large number of Japa-
nese laborerS brought to the islands since
annexation has already aroused antago-
nism in the United States, and that a.
continuance of the policy will result In a
colonial rather than a territorial form of
government for the islands, while, on the
other hand, it is admitted that the ma
terial prosperity of the country will be
seriously hindered IL foreign labor can
not be obtained for the large areas of
the lana now DeinS rapidly brought under
cultivation.
The whole number of japanese laborers
admitted to the islands since annexation.
Mr.. Brown says. is u, $50. OF this number
1,l91 were free, the only requirement be-
ing that each individual shall be the
possessor of $50 In gold, or its equivalent
The remaining 1888 were contract labor
ers. These contracts are simply that the
laborers shall work for the contractor
three years, on stipulated terms. At the
end of that period he is at liberty to re-
main in the country or leave it, at his
own pleasure.
About half of the poulation, Mr. Brown
saws, is Asiatic, and of this number the
Japanese exceed the Chinese by about
10000. He predicts that before the end of
the present year the Asiatic population
Of the islands will largely exceed all other
nationaHties combined and that the OK
cess of Japanese over Chinese will be
fully double what 1t is now.

All the large clothing stores and fur
nishing establishments in St. Paul have
put in an unusually large stock of straw
hats this year. Although the season has
been considerably backward all the local
merchants are looking forward to large
trade in this class of summer goods
well known local buyer in this de-
partment of haberdashery is authority
for the statement that 20 per cent more
straw hats have been manufactured in
the United States than heretofore.
The hats this year have been mostly
manufactured from braids OF Chinese
and Japanese straw.
In picking out a straw hat one always
consults the seasons styles, as the deli
cate material used in its construction
makes it necessary TO purchase a new
one each year. AS heretofore, braided
rough straw and smooth split will be
the material used IN this season shapes.
Fa.ncy ribbon bands of a great variety
will be worn almost universally.
The most popular model In mems hats
is the rough braided straw with a three
inch crown and two and half inch
brim, finished in a patent square corner,
selling at 50 per dozen. There are many
different styles, the crown varying In
height from "a to 81, and the brim ranges
in width from "a to 2N.
The blocks this year are conspicuous
for the extreme scantlness of materia
used and the "dinky' effect which has
been brought out
Colored straws are very unpopular
Mackinaws are fast going out of styla
he hos md fnrrc 70 IN hot rih
has been for blue and black, although
black and white effects are commanding
attention.
A much greater variety is shown In
ladies' straw hats The ever-popular
sailor, with a tip crown, l. E., the crown
which is about %-inch higher in front
than in back, is all the vogue. Coarse
and rough braid is most desirable
A very attractive sailor has the brial
turned up about half an inch, in coarse
straw, with plaid silk ribbon and pearl
buckle
The walking shape, resembling the AL
pine hat, is destined TO command great
attention from a large class of women
This model is seen in a multiplicity OF
combinations. These ladies' walkers, as
they are called, are made in cornflower
blue, maize and ciel, sometimes with q
white crown and a cOlored brim, and
again the relations are reversed. Ninety
per cent of the goods on the market this
year are plain; occasionally a feather Is
gracefully inserted under the band.
Spanish turbans basket shaped turbans
and all manner of odd shapes are seen,
but a majority OF American girls will
wear a plain sailor this summer
This season all will wear straw hats
with low crown, which rests on the tor
of the head and blows off at every gust OF
wind, unless the swaziland fits unusually
and painfully snug. The brim is very
stiff and narrow. The straw Is very white
and is braided into fancy and plain
rough braids of considerable width The
band is very wide-nearly as wide as the
1 height of the croWn-and any color OIL
pattern in plain or fancy ribbons will be
accepted as 1.-The proper thing"
