The Colored Race In New York

New York Correspondent Detroit Journal
The colored population of New York has
been decreasing for fifteen years. There
was a large increase of the blacks immed-
lately after the war. They were happy and
prosperous for a decade or more, and were
doing as well as the negroes anywhere in
the country. Then. there came the objec-
ton to their employment In frst-class
hotels and as servants generally. White
help was preferred. This caused the MI
grafton from the South to cease The birth
rate of the blacks y New York is not
equal to the death rata The mortality
among children Is very high, the statis-
tics showing about 80 per cent. excess over
the whites
The blacks formerly bad their habitat

population moved Up the colored folks had

The Net Shirt waist

From the st. Louis Republic.
The net waist girl is dividing the atten-
ton of critics of dress with the shirt waist
man.
In fact, she threatens to eclipse him al

For, be 1t known, the critical public and
the sensitive critic alike take the net waist
girl seriously, while they regard the shirt
waist man as more or less of joke.

TALKS ON HAWAII.


Former West virginian Who Ez.i-
grated to the Island, Gives Inter
esting Account Of the Conditions
Existing Natives Arc Dem
ocrnts,
Special Dispatch to tho Intslllgeneer.
PARRERsBURG, w. Va, May A.
James McCandless, formerly of Volca-
no, near here. who, together with his
brothers John and Lincoln, emigrated
to Hawaii about twenty years ago, ar
rived here on Saturday en- route to the
Paris exposition. In an Interview, he
said: business on the island, which
was paraiyzad by the bubonIc plague,
Is now Frightening up and we look for
very prosperous future. Politically
the island is divided between the two
great political parties. the new element
being Republicans and the natives, ale
most to. man, being Democrats. The
chief reason for the afiiliatlon OF the
natives with the Democratic party Is
that they remember the friendly offices
of Mr.. Cleveland in ordering the Amer
lean nag hauled down by his personal
commissioner, Mr.. Blount.
The administration Of President Dole
has been fairly satisfactory. My bro
Their John, who served In many high po-
sItlons under the late republic, was
rendered the portfolio Of minister Of
the interior, which he was obliged to
decline because OF his large business
interests. My brothers and myself
originally went to Hawaii for the pur-
pose OF drilling arteslan wells, and
while we are stIll engaged in that busl-
ness, we are also extensively interested
In the raising OF sugar beets, which
has become one of the leading Indus
tries and has greatly added to the
prosperity of the island. Our latest
venture Is the publication Of a daily
morning paper at Honolulu called the
Republican" 1t is our intention to At
up our office with the latest style Of
printing machinery, including a bat
terry of linotype machines.
Our paper is not only Republican in
name, but also politically andwe hope to
make 1t power in the new territory.
The natives, while friendly to the Uni
ted States, rather resent Americans
having charge of their affairs and we
shall endeavor to show them that We
are not their enemies and that their In
-tergsts and those OF Americans are
Identical, whether the latter be Dem
ocrats or Republicans"
Mr.. McCandless, who is the guest Of
his sister, will remain here several
days. visiting relatives and acquaint-
ances and when he goes TO Europe, will
take his niece with him on a pleasure
trip.

GERMANY WILL HEED
The Warnings Given by Secretary
Root and Senator Lodge.

Root and Senator Lodge
NEW YORK, May IA special to
the Herald from Washington, says:
1t is the belief OF well informed de-
partment officials here that Germany
will heed the warnings given her by
SECRETARY Root and Senator Lodge, by
more strongly urging the passage Of the
bill providing for the increase Of the
navy desired by the German emperor.
II Is understood that the admInistra-
ton expects Germany to try to block
automatically, every plan which may
strengthen the position of the United
States as In the case OF the Danish
West indies, but 1t is not supposed for
a moment that she will go to the extent
OF hostilRles.
Continue to Colonize the Americas.
It rs thought to be her policy to con-
tinue tho colonization Of Central ana
South America to get a pteponderance
OF German influence in those states, 80
that IN ease OF war with the United
States. these German communities
might have an important bearing upon
the degree OF neutrality the southern
republics would enforce.
Embassy officials say there are too
mnny Germans In the fatherland, that
they must emIgrate somewhere and
that they have selected Central aud
South America and Asia Minor becauae
they are undeveloped places in which
immigrants may live without restric,
tlons.
