Secretary Wilson spoke of the great com
mercial significance OF the open door
concert Of the powers respecting China yes
! terday, and said that but for this action
| The United States would have been shut
out from trade advantages in any province
which other nations might see fit to take
possession Of. He said in part:
Anything produced In the United stat es
will now find its way into all parts of the
Celestial Empire. our trade relations there
in the future are secured The work OF
Secretary Hay In this regard supplements
and compliments the work of our Army
and Navy.
"A year ago no nation would have lis
tened to a proposition of this kind, but the
whole world listens to the United States
now. Some idea OF the vastness OF the in
terests involved may be gained from the
fact that while ten years ago our exports

gregated s26. 600. 900. and FIVE years ago
Si2, 900 900, the steady increase in Pacific
Coast exports had raised the aggregate to

The question of Alaskas future was
again before the Cabinet for discussion
yesterday. The Secretary Of War reported
that he was arranging TO establish mill
tary department in Alaska. with troops at
various points. the whole TO be under n
! competen: officer. whose duty it shall be
to sec that American interests are pro-
tected. The Secretary did not state the
number OF troops that would be sent to
the Territory or who would be given
charge of the department
The members of the Cabinet stated that
the establishment of military department
in Alaska did not Indicate that this coun-
try anticipated any trouble with Great
Britain. 1t is generally understood how
ever. that 'he Administration has thought
1t best 10 haze n large military force in
Alaska in order that this country shall be
prepared in the event of any trouble over
the boundary dispute between this country
and Canada.
The President is greatly interested in
Alaska, and while he will probably not
send message TO Congress on the subject.
he has been informed that some of the
leaders in Congress would bring up the
question: OF ESTABLISHING q better judiciary
department there and in many other ways
improving the condition of that country.
The Secretary of the Navy reported the
raising of the American flag on the Island
of Schultz by men from the gunboat Alloy
The Secretary of War also reported the re-
leasing of large number of American
prisoners from the insurgents near Vigan,
and expressed the belief that the insur-
rection in the Philippines was being rapid
ly crushed out by General Otis.
The question of this country intervening
in the war in the Transvaal was not dis
cussed by the Cabinet. One OF the mem
bers said that there was no doubt but that
the policy that had prevailed since the
outbreak of hostilities in South Africa
would be maintained by this country, that
is. that no proposition for this country to
intervene would be listened to unless it
came from both Great Britain and the Boer
Government.
The Secretary of State reported that
Italy had agreed 10 the policy OF main
tanning the open door" in China, and that
Ell the countries interested had now given
their assent to this oountry's requests and
the matter would soon be put in formal
shape.

INDIAN MISSION SCHOOLS.
Jones EuIoeixes Theil
Work in His Report.

". A. Jones, Commissioner of Indian AZ
fairs, pays a high tribute in his last re-
port 10 the manner in which the mission
schools in the West are conducted by re-
ligious bodies, without any financial as
sistanee whatever from the Government.
There are a large number Of these schools
throughout the Indian country maintained
in this way. which. together with the phi
lanthropic institutions, furnish teachers,
food, clothing, etc, to the pupils. When
the school is located on Government res
eryation It is the recipient Of assistance in
the shape Of supplies, but these are few il
number.
Since the act OF Congress in 1895 pro-
yiding for the annual reduction in the
number Of contract schools the attendance
upon the schools has very largely in
creased. In 1894. the year prior to the
passage OF the act, there were fifteen pu
pills attending these institutions. In 1895
the number had increased to 7Ji, and IN
1898 there were enrolled 1851 pupils in
these mission schools. OF these cared for
only very small percentage are day pu-
pills.
in many cases the schools are connected
with churches and missionary stations
which are engaged In religiously instruct
ing the Indians. To these workers in the
Christian faith the school is as necessary
as the mission itself, as they are enabled
TO administer the moral and educational
work Of the Indian youth simultaneously.
The labors which are done by these
schools and churches" says the Commits
sioner Of Indian Affairs, ARE of inestimasle
value for civilizing these people and while
The heavy burden must, as II should rest
upon the shoulders OF the Government. yet
these little Institutions Of learning, with
their faithful Christian workers, are i'm
portant adjuncts. AT ail times this office
extends to them a helping hand in every
way possible for their success"

THINGS THEATRICAL.

There are several players, principally in
musical comedy, who are enabled, either
by chance or superior merit, to remain
through their seasons in New York, and
who, consequently, are seen but rare'F in

individuals is James 7. Powers, who comes
to the Columbia next week with "a Run
away Girl" During the past FIVE years Mr.
Powers has spent so large portion OF his
time with successful attractions that he has
been kept on Broadway continually. First.
THE Circus Girl enlisted his attention for
a number OF months, and when Augustin

Mr.. Powers was sent here with the Offering

back TO this city. He has not been forgot
ten in his absence however, and the aud
fences at the Luckett & Dryer house
doubtless will laugh at his quaint humor
even more heartily than they might have
done had his visits been less OF a rarity.
