years in missionary work in the Congo

Farris was very severe in his denuncia-
ton of the Belgian Government, which
administers affairs in the Congo, claiming
that the Government was corrupt from
top to bottom He had seen natives shot
for failing to turn in their per capita tax
on rubber, even when they lived in dis
trictS which produced none of that COM
modify. Furthermore, Government Off
cials did everything in their power, un-
officially, to hinder the missionaries in
their work.
The treasurer's report showed receipts
during the year amounting to S171,S8S, a
decrease compared with the collections of
a year ago.
President Mclean said that Mark Twain
was directly responsible for the falling

Cz0LGOSz DOES
NOT FEAR DEATH
But Few Spectators to
Be Admitted to the
ElectrocutiOn.

ALBANY, n. Y. Oct. 14.-Superintend-
ent G. Y. Collins will send a request to
Secretary of State Hay to designate an
official representative of the Government
to be present at the electrocution of Leon
F. Czolgosz, the murderer of President
Mckinley. Only twenty-six witnesses
will be present in the chamber of death
when the sentence is executed. Warden
Meade of Auburn Prison has sent to Sup
erintendent Collins the requests he has
received for permission TO attend the
electrocution, over 1000 in all. The law
will limit the number of witnesses and
the superintendent will decide who the
witnesses shall be-
1t was stated at the State Department
of Prisons to-day that statements to the
effect that CZoigosZ is III a continuous
state of collapse and that he breaks down
and weeps every time anything is said
to him concerning the electrOcution are
false. Superintendent Collins had a talk
with the condemned man some days ago
and at that time he said he knew he had
to Gle. He expressed no fear as to the
electrocution, but said that he would not
care to go outside of the prison, for he
believed that the people would kill him.
Since his confinement in Auburn prison
several thousand letters have been re-
ceived for him at the prison as well as a
large number of express packages, COLI
tanning flowers and fruits. The letters,
flowers and fruit have never reached the
condemned man. The flowers and fruits,
it is learned, have been sent by Christian
societies. as have number OF letters con-
soling him in his last moments. Other
letters have come from cranks who have
written about the species of torture to
which they would put him If they had the
execution of Justice in his case. 1t is
stated however that it would be matter
of surprise if the names of senders of
fruit and flowers were made public The
State Prison Department has pursued a
uniform policy in regard to CzoigoSz. An
>effort has been made to prevent the muir
derer from gaining any notoriety while
awaiting death and to surround him by
as perfect an isolation from the world as

unconscious. Both Fitzgerald and Ander-
son deny that they are the men wanted.

MUSICAL TREAT
At PRESS CLUB
The Royal Italian Band
Tenders a Classical
Concert.

Men of the professions crowded the
rooms of the Press Club, on Ellis street.
last night, the occasion being a concert
rendered the club by the Royal Italian
Band, following that organizations ap-
pearance at the Alhambra Theater.
Preceding the concert Congressman Ju-
Illus Kahn, wh0 recently returned from
the Philippines, entertained the gathering
with an interesting talk on his expert
ences in the newly acquired possessions.
He gave "a humorous sketch of Filipino
traits of character, and said that prac-
ucally all that was left of the insurrec-
tionary movement was embodied in the
person of Malvar, whose force, haunting
ing the American troops. Yesterday
dispatches had shown that Malvar, fol-
lowing the late encounter with Maccabebe
scouts. had retreated further into the
mountains. The Congressman believed
the iHsurgent chief would soon lay down
his arms.
Mr. Kahn said that he enjoyed the ques-
tionable distinction of being one Amer
can citizen who had no Fourth of July
this year.
II want to lodge a protest against the
action of the captain of our transport,
said he. you are all familiar with the
fact that in crossing to the Orient a day
is lost somewhere out on the Pacific. Ia
the hurry and hustle of life one would
overlook this, but the captain of our ship
had so timed the voyage that the day thaC
was taken from US was the day of all
Gays Tor Americans we Sklppeu TlSDl
along from July to July 5. and were
cheated out of our holiday.
The Royal Italian Band, composed OF
fifty-four pieces, rendered a number OF
classical selections that were enthusiast
cally received. The acoustic properties
of the clubs jinks hall are admirable for
the soft-toned instruments with which the
strangers from sunny Italy deal out mel

CUSTOMS LAWS
IN PHILIPPINES
sticeBrown May Write
Opinion in Diamond
Rings Case.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

CALL BUREAU. 1905 @ STREET, N
w, WASHINGTON, Oct. 14.-Justice
Brown will probably write the opinion in
the fourteen diamond rongs case. which is
TO decide the status of the Philippines in
relation TO customs laws of the United
States. There mas been considerable spec
ulation as to what the decision of the
court viii be on this case. but the best
information obtainable here is that the
court has not yet reached a final agree
ment. Chief Justice Fuller and Justices
Harlan. Brewer and Peckham are op-
posed to the Government contention that
the Philippines are not q part of the
United States within the meaning of the
customs laws and Justices White, Shiras,
ment contention. This was the division
Of the court on the Downs case, relating
10 Porto Rico. II is not known what po-
sition Justice Brown will take. He de-
cided both he Downs and the De Lima
cases last spring, in the former case writ
ing the opinion sustaining the Govern
ment, and in the latter case writing the
opinion against tire Government
Philippines Case Differs.
The Philippines case is different from
Doth these case. The court will recognize
the Philippines as territory belonging TO
the United States, but II may hno that
pscificat tiOn there is not sufnclent to take
them out Of Lhe war power OF the Presl-
dent. In the first Dooley case the court
held that the President had power to fix
duties. as Porto Rico was foreign terri
tory held by the war power.
Representatives Of the Government be-
IjeVe thar the court will take this view
Of the Philippines case and decide that the
islands ale nOI yet sufficiently paclfed
70 come within the meaning Of the treaty
IS domestic territory. waiting for the ac-
zion of Congress. The McEnery resolu-
tion adopted by the Senate at the time
the treaty was under consideration, de-
claring il was not the purpose of the
United States TO incorporate the Philip
pine Islands or their people into the
United States. Is regarded as having some
weight with the court. though that joint
resolution was never adopted by the
House Of Representatives or signed by
The President. and cannot be presented as
having fierce Of law.
Unlike Porto Rico.
It is claimed. however. that the resolu-
ton represents the sentiment of part
Of the treaty making power, and
IS q pledge that the treaty should not be
interpreted as incorporating the Philip
pines as q Territory within the same
meaning as Porto Rico. No opinion on
this case will be handed down for sew
era1 weeks, however, because Justice
Brown has not given any intimation to
his associates as to which view he will
take The court may not hand down an
opiuion until after Congress meets, and
then some action may be taken that will
clear up the position Of the Government
toward the Philippines.
