BOSTON, April "A mass meeting
under the auspices of the Anti-Imperialist
league was held in fremont Temple to-
night and was attended by a large and
enthusiastic audience. The principal
speaker was ex-Secretary Of the Treasury
George S. Boutwell,. He said: 81 have
narshalled a portion of the evidence that
Is at my command, which proves, or tends
to prove that the president has entered
Systematically upon a colonial policy in
Imitation of the colonial policy of Great
Britain. Four great points for which the
president is responsible for are reconcile.
BILE upon one theory and all tend to one
contention-an American colonial system.
First, 1 mention the protocol Of Aug. u.
1893; second, the treaty of Paris, Dee. 10.
1898; then the proclamation to the Philin-
pines of Jan. S, 1899, and finally, the Plhlip

sponsibility and without special authority

Filed n Claim for Half the AMOUNT

New York Tribune. -nr
Not long ago a Pittsburg life insurance
agent persuaded a Chinaman to take out
a policy of s., 900. The latter had no clear
idea of the trarsac tion, but understood
that on paying the premiums promptly
he would be entitled to 5000 some time
He began bothering the agent for the
money after a couple of weeks had
passed. and the agent tried to explain to
him that he would have to die before he
could get it. The Chinaman fell down a
cellarway on Grant street and was badly
hurt. His friends tried to attend to him
without calling in a doctor. When they
did call one in two days later the doctor
was angry.
why din't you call me sooner?" he
asked. This man Is half dead now"
Next day the injured mans brother
was at the insurance office with claim
for $500.
You are not entitled to anything on
this said the insurance agent. until
the man is dead
''Doctel say him half died." answered
the brother. why no glet lat half?"

WEARING MEMS GLOVES.
They Are Very Ugly and Coarse, hut
Mannish.

Girls are becoming more and more
manish in attire. in speech, in desire for
amusement and in the sort of amuse
ment they desire. The latest masculine
wrinkle which the girls affect is mascu-
line gloves. not gloves made in mannish
style and fitting the feminine hand, but
gloves that are cut on masculine lines,
designed for masculine wearing and but
toned with the single button that holds
together the abbreviated kid wrist.
The gloves are short and square, are
made of heavy dogskin and stitched
markedly In white. The fingers are big
and clumsy and the entire glove Is almost
twice the size which the girl ordinarily
affects. The bigger the glove the more
stylish the result, and the ladies' hands
seen on State street or at the dog show
recall the children who play at being
grown-up ladies and gentlemen with
grown-up gloves covering diminutlve
palms and fingers. The masculine glove
is entirely in keeping with the stubby,
ugly masculine shoe.

Asks for Trust LegisIntIon

state Legislation Has Failed.
He points 20 previous trust legislation
and its Effectiveness, and also calls at
tention to the legislation enacted by the
various states in the following words:
The state legislation to which President
Cleveland looked for relief from the evils
OF trusts has failed to accomplish fully
that object This is probably due TO a
great extent TO the fact that different
states take different views a 8 to the pronS
way TO discriminate between evil and
injurious combinations and those associa-
tions which ire beneficial and necessary TO
the business prosperity Of the country
The great diversity OF treatment In differ
ent states arising from this cause and the
intlmate rslatlons OF al parts Of The coun-
try 10 each other without regarding state
lines in the conduct OF business have made
the enforcement of state laws difficult
II IS apparent that uniformity OF leeisla
ton upon this subject in the several states
Is much TO be desired IL is TO be hoped that
such uniformity, founded in a wise md tust
discrimination between what is Injurious
and what Is useful and necessary in bust
ness operations, may be obtained and that
means may be found for the congress
within the limitations OF its constitutional
power, 50 to supplement effective code
