the Philippine Tariff act will be a rusT

THE PHILIPPINE TARIFF

Congress has lost no time in putting
mp the bars which the Supreme Court
put down in the Philippines, and the
Committee on ways and means had
drafted bill which will re-enact the
duties upon goods coming from the
Philippines to the mainland, and will
prevent flood of European goods from
being run ito the Union, duty free, via
our latest possession. What most peo-
pie have lost sight of is the clause in
the Spanish Treaty which for a period
OF hve years allows Spanish trade in
the Philippines exactly the same status
as American trade. With the Philippine
tariff down, the bars are also down for
Spain, and through Spain for every Eu-
ropean country. In this lay the real
danger.
The bill which will go in will be
fought out nearly on strict party lines
though here and there they may be a
weak brother, The Democrats will on
pose the bill and the Republicans will
carry it. Either there must be one
policy or the other. The policy of the
United States is protection, and under
that policy there has been the most
marvellous commercial growth. The
policy Of free trade has had a very Sc
rious black eye, even in the country
which was the home of the doctrine.
The tendency of Great Britain is now
clearly away from free trade. Theoreti-
cally free trade is admirable, but it does
not work out well in practice, as the
British manufacturer has been finding
out to his cost. To let conditions go on in
the Philippines as the Supreme Court
left them would be stutifying the policy
OF the United States and of the repubIi-
can party. To allow the condition of
things to hang in the air was impossible
and therefore Congress has faced the
question without hesitation. and will no
doubt act very quickly upon IT.
The powers Of Congress in dealing
with such questions is really enhanced
by the Supreme Court decision. That
is TO say the power has always been
there, but the Supreme Court decision
makes an opportunity for its being ex-
ercised upon a scale which will COM
mand the consideration of the world.
and will make it understand the i'm
mense latent power in that body.

The land law which Delegate Wilcox
has put before Congress will certainly
not be for the interest of the Hawaiian
who will find himself thrust to the wall
if it ever goes through. There is how
ever one provision which will have an
evil effect upon Delegate Wilcox s
hopes, and that is the easy way in
which he proposes to deal with Federal
funds. With that provision its fate is
sealed, so we need not worry about
Delegate Wilcox's land bill. There may
be others, however.

no means as bright from the Cuban
point of view, as it was a little while

majority Of voters, and they have to
be considered, and are considered by

When this fact sinks into the minds Of
some of our investors here, we shall
begin TO see a rise in our sugar stocks,

The Home Rule party is gradually
working up to a grand blow up. There
is no true party allegiance in the body,
and the only bond of sympathy is per-
sonal hatred and a greed for office.
Neither of these bonds is very strong,
and each is easily loosed. There are
constant personal quarrels between the
various members, and before election
time, the party will be looking four
ways for Sunday

PHILADELPHIA FOR PANAMA
Cruiser Will Start for the Isthmus
Some Time Next Week.

The battleshiD Wisconsin and the cruis-
er Philadelphia are both expected here
next week. The former, with Rear Ad-
miral Casey aboard, is coming from Puget
Sound, while the cruiser is returning
after having taken the San Diego Naval
Militia out for a practice cruise. On his
arrival here Rear Admiral Casey will
transfer his flag to the Philadelphia and
will start for Panama. AT the isthmus
he will again transfer his flag to the
Iowa and will go TO Pago Page in that
vessel. Admiral Casey will be head of
the court appointed 10 try Commander

Commander Iilley is now in the United
States, but will return to Pago PagO on
the naval transport Solace, which is
scheduled to sail from here on the 18th
inst. II he does not go on the Solace
he will be a passenger on the mail steam
ship Sonoma, which sails on the oath inst.
The Solace will take down to Page Page

stores to the naval station. These We're
to have gone on the schooner Julia z.

eminent countermanded the order and

More OVerdue Vessels.

Four cOal-laden vessels bound for this
port were yesterday added to the over
due feet. One Of them is the well-known
four-masted bark Atom Alaw. She is now
152 days out from Swansea, and the under
writer's are paying s per cent to reinsure
their risks. Captain Thomas has been COM
ing TO this port for years and never met
with a miShap, so his friends are not Wor-
rying. He was master of the bark Meri-
onette when she made the record run of
ninety-seven days from Swansea, but he
has never been able to make a quick pas
sage in the Atom Alaw.
The French barks La Tour d Auvergne,
lag days out from Swansea; Edward De-
Uaille, Isl days our from Cardiff, and the
Anne de Bretaigne, 142 days out from Car
diff, are also quoted at per cent. Fears
are also entertained for the Chilean bark
mainus. 3. c, for AntOfOgasta,; for the
little schooner Helen, now out eighty-five
days from San Diego, for Alaska, and the
ship Indiana, now out forty-three days
from Bristol Bay for San Francisco.
What makes IL look bad for the Antoi-
nette is the fact that the schooner Fred J.
Wood, which left Chemainus over two
months after her, arrived at Antofogasta
yesterday.
The Helen was built at Sausalito to take
party Of gold hunters to Nome. AS
soon Is the boat got outside a storm came
up and she was driven down the coast.
She made San Diego leaking and after be-
ing repaired, made another start, from
which time nothing has been heard Of her.
The Indiana Is a doubtful quantity. s lie
is supposed to have sailed from Bristol
Bay forty-three days ago, but something

AD|EUS MUST
END At MOLE
Only Ticket Holders Can
Ride on Overland
Trains.
Privilege of Going to Six
teenth Street Is Abol-
ished.

There will be wailing and gnashing Of
teeth over a new order of the Southern
Pacific Company which went into effect
yesterday. In the futre only those with
transportation will be allowed on over
land trains.
1t has been the custom of friends Of
those going East to make the trip to the
Oakland mole and ride on the overland
trains as far as the Sixteenth-street sta
ton with them. In the same way 1t Is
the custom to go to the same depot and
ride with friends coming from the East
to the mole on their return trip.
Superintendent Frazier issued an order,
which went into effect yesterday, allow
ing only those who carry overland tickets
to ride on overland trains, and in the fu-
ture friends of travellers will have to be
satisfied with saying a farewell at the
Oakland mole.
A prominent railroad official, in speak
ing. of the new order, said:
1T is a wonder that the Southern Pa
cif1c Company has not made this rule be-
fore. In the East none but those pur-
chasing overland tickets are allowed to
board the train Many people complain
about the Southern Pacific Company, but
coming right down to bare facts 1t Is one
of the most lenient roads in America

TN another week or so there will I've
an amalgamation of shipping inter-
ests that will be the strongest ever
IN known in the history of the port.
The Steamship Managers Associa-
ton, the Shipowners' Association and the
steam schooner owners are now pracu-
cally one concern and in future will gov
ern all matters pertaining to the shipping
and paying off of ships crews.
The formation of the Shipowners' AS
sociation dates back to the big strike OF
sailors several years ago. Since that time
the members of the association have
shipped and paid off their men in the
Office of the association. The Steamship
months ago as the result of certain de-
mands made by the Sailors Union. The
steam schooner owners are the LATEST ad-
dition to the compact.
Members of the three different bodies
held informal talks, and finally a meeting
was called for last Wednesday. There
were present 1T II J. r. Hanify of j. R.
Hanify & Co. ana c. A. Hooper of c. A
Hooper & Co.. representing the steam
Gcodall, Perkins & Co. and E. R. Dr.
mond of Williams, Dimond & Co., repre-
senting the Steamship Managers Asso-
citation. and Henry Z. Pennen of the
Simpson Lumber Company and Captain
senting the Shipowners' Association.
After considerable discussion the steam
schooner owners decided to join the
Steamship Managers Association but for
through the Shipowners' Association.
That is as far as the matter has gone at
present, but on the 18th inst, when an
other meeting is to be held, the chances
are that all three concerns will amalga-
mate and form large central assocla-
