HAVEMEYER IS
DISCUSSED
His Position on the Tariff
Criticised.

NEW, YORK, June 16.-The Herald
says: Opinions widely different are
being expressed in this city in regard
to the statment of Henry o. Have
meyer, president of the American
Sugar Company, before the industrial
commission at Washington recently.
Senator Thomas c. Platt said:- -"Mr.
Havemeyer expressed the views of a
democrat and his statement was in the
interest of the democratic party"
Edward M. Shepard, a leading at
tornes for large corporations said. 81
thoroughly agree with the proposition
that che serious evil of so-called trusts
and monopolies are evils arising from
the tariff system. This general
doctrine was very we'll put by Angus
tus Van Wyck,> in his speech at the
Democratic dinner in April. What
ever excuse there may have been in
the past for the maintenance of infant
industries, it is certain the United
States has grown far beyond the use.
fulness, if there ever were any useful
ness, of the extreme protective system
under which We now live. The true
warfare against monopolias ought not
to be waged by undemocratic inter-
ference with the liberty of business,
but by dealing with sthe system of
special privileges created by the ex-
listing tariff"
Former Representative John De
Witt Warner, one of the leading
mem hers of the Reform Club, said: "If
Mr.. Havemeyer imagines he can elude
pursuit by crying stop thiefH he is not
the first man who has made that mis-
take, although the accuracy of his
statements as to other peoples sins,
make one query as TO wether, with a
some what further developemeut of
yeracity, he may not turn out to be
new Saul among the prophets.
"Should he once become converted
his courage would make him invalu-
able. In the face of the facts, his own
conduct and the course of sugar stock
prices, his suggestion that he is pro-
tected by only one-eight of one per
cent, is simply heroic. IL is true,
that since Doscher and
have been producing, he has
realized but little more than
to which he owns up."

NO LIGHTS FOR SALEM.

Counellmen Bave Faith in the Moon and
Stars in Summer.
SALEM, June 10 There is good
prospect that Salem streets will con-
tinue without lights during the sum-
mer months. The members of the
city council do not say what the plan
is, but, by statements made by one or
two, it is certain that some course is
under consideration. The city has
been two weeks without lights, and
the city treasury Is better off by about
1920 as result. One member of the
council says that during the summer
months it does not get dark until late.
and that street lights are nothing but
luxury for those who stay out late.
He says it is not improbable that when
the bids for street lights are opened
the council will clay action until the
days get shorter before entering into
a contract. The expense Of street
lighting has been $3.50 per month. and
that amount will be saved this month
by reason of the lapsing of the light
ing contract.

CANNIBALISM IN ALASKA.
Terrible Fate of three Prospectors in the
Frozen North

Terrible Fate of three Prospectors in tn,
Frozen North.
CIRCLE CITY, Alaska, May 29.-Via
San Francisco, June ia story o.
possible cannibalism and death on the
Yukon trail has just reached here
| Three men who left Dahl river on
December 5, for Jimtown, were not
heard of again and they were supposed
to haye been lost. Nothing was heard
of them here till the steamer Rideout,
which arrived today, brought a ter
rible tale of suffering and horror.
The tnsa were Michael DAILY, Victor
Edair and M Provost. They were
from Providence, R l., Wonsocket,
r. l., and Brockton, Mass, respective
ly. They were discovered II miles
from the mouth of Old Man creek,
they having lost the trail and become
bewildered. Having left Dahl river
with only three weeks food. but which
was amply sufficient for the $50 miles
to Jimtown, the poor fellows were soon
reduced to starvation.
Daly's body was found. partly eaten,
in a tent, and on a stove, just as it
was left when death overlook the
others were found some scraps of
moose hide and rnoccasins of which
they were endeavoring to make a
stew.
Daly's body was identified by the
clothes. The other two men were
found dead five miles away from the
tent. The fact of the tent flaps being
shut down when found would preclude
the possibility of Daiy's body having
been eaten by animals. The other
men doubtless were driven by hunger
to the awful extremity of canni-
balism. Four hundred dollars were
found on the bodies.

powers desiring to have recourse to
the tribunal for the peaceful settle
mept of differences, shall give notice
of its desire to the secretary at the
central Office, and afterward select
from the list of members of the tri-

NEW YORK, June 19.-The Wash

says prominent cabinet officer made
the following statement: "The slight
est intimation from General Otis that
he wants more troops will be followed

will be no further parleying with
Aguina do and his followers, and no
let up in the aggressive campaign
which General Otis is conducting.
"The president stands ready to call
for as many volunteers as may be
necessary to subdue the Filipinos, and
there is every reason to believe that
he can secure, without delay, all the
volunteers he may call for. This is the
true situation so far as the admiuistra
tion is concerned. and it is unfair and
unjust to charge the president with
the want of ageressiveness in. dealing
with this subject"
