THE CHURCH IN HAWAII.

The Diocesan Synod OF the Anglican Church
in Hawaii took an important step on December
looking to the incorporation of that Church
with the Protestant Episcopal Church of the
United States. Ever since the annexation of
Hawaii the necessity of such action has been
apparent. but many difficulties stood in the way.
one OF which was said 10 be the antagonistic at
titude of DIR. Willis. the Bishop of Honolulu.
But harmonious understanding appears
finally to have been reached. and the Bishop
announced TO the Synod his readiness to agree
to any action that might be taken.
Two resolutions were adopted. The first, after
recitng the necessity of changing the status of
the Church owing to the annexation of the
islands declared that A union with the Prot
estant Episcopal Church would in no respect
contravene any doctrines of the Church. and
would not. therefore, be forbidden By the Funda-
mental Provisions of the Anglican Church in
Hawaii. For these reasons 1t was provided that
such changes should be made in the Prayer Book
would be rendered necessary by incorpora-
ton with the American Church The second
resolution instructed the trustees of the Angli-
can Church in Hawaii to obtain the consent of
the civil authority of Hawaii to such changes
and amendments in the charter of the Church
would enable the corporation to hold all its
property missionary diocese of the Amer1-
Church. After adopting these resolutions,

NORE COMMISSIONERS.

The selection of q physician TO be Street

actly in line with what is expected from the
profession. One is now brigadier general of
the United States Army. Another has just been
made Adjurant General of New-York. and DR..

ability combined with a scientific knowledge
which peculiarly fits him for the extremely diff
cult post which he will fill in Mr.. Lows admin
istration.
DR. Woodbury. was division surgeon in the
army during the Spanish war. and there at
tracted attention for remarkable capacity in a
line quite apart from his regular work. The
rapidity and precision with which he unloaded
transports ard moved wagon trains attracted
the favorable comment OF foreign critics, who
thought it one Of the wonders of American
ways that an army doctor should not only have
such task but perform il in a manner that
seemed TO them more than usually admirable.
Later he was sanitary inspector of Porto Rico,
organized the Health Board of Ponce and
cleaned the town, and since then has studied
the drainage and garbage disposition systems
of the cities of Europe. Just that talent which
he showed in the war is what will be needed in

lord ROSEBERY AND THE RADICALS

The most pertinent comment upon Lord Rose
bery's fine speech of Monday night was made
nearly fortnight before it. The National
Liberal Federation met at Derby two weeks
ago to-day, under the leadership Of Mr. Leh-
man. Mr. Birrell Mr.. Lloyd George, DR. Spence
Watson and others of their type of Liberalism.
and after prolonged discussion adopted set OF
resolutions bearing upon the salient issues of
the day and especially upon the Boer war,
which is. after all. the one paramount issue,
whether between the government and the oppo-
s;tion or between the factions of the opposition.
Between those resolutions and Lord RoSeberys
profession of faith there is dametric and
irreconcilable difference. In that fact the stu
alton is summed up.
Thus Lord Rosebery declared Lord Miner to
be particularly deserving of confidence, and
deprecated any thought of sending another
commissioner 10 supersede him But at Derby
the one speaker who ventured to say a word
in Lord Miners behalf was promptly howled
down, and a resolution was adopted demanding
the sending of another commissioner 70 South
Africa 10 negotiate peace. Again, Lord Rose
berry maintained that the two Beer States must
he irrevocably and absolutely incorporated into
the British Empire while the Derby resolutions
called for what 1.-The London Daily Chronicle
tersely describes as another Majuba settle
ment' We need not specify further. These
two utterances demonstrate strikingly the vast
gulf which separates Lord Rosebery from that
militant Radical wing Of the Liberal party
whose support is necessary to successful
leadership.
Lord Rosebery eloquenty exposed and con-
demned the weaknesses of the present govern
ment In that he was largely in accord with

TIE POINT ,JrDITH REFUGE.

The agreeable announcement was mace on
Saturday that the much needed harbor of refuge
at the Delaware Breakwater. at the entrance to
Delaware Bay was finished, a fortnight ahead
of contract time Some statistics were also
given showing the great utility of that work to
shipping There can be no question Of the value
Of such refugees. In certain places they are sim
ply Indispensable.
The completion of this Delaware refuge is,
however an apt reminder of the urgent need Of
CARRYING to completion the similar work which
has long Jagged unfinished at Point Judith,
Rhode Island, at the eastern entrance to Long
Island Sound. Point Judith has from time i'm
memorial been noted for its dangers to the
mariner And it lies upon one of the great
est of all our routes of coaStwise commerce.
Whether for the perils of the place or for the
number of vessels which traverse those waters
there is no spot on the whole Atlantic Coast at
which efficient harbor Of refuge is more
needed than at Point Judith
In a storm of few weeks ago a fatal dis
aster occurred AT Point Judith which need not
have occurred, and in all probability would not
have occurred, had the refuge been completed.
Congress will do we'll speedily TO provide for
the completion Of the work, for the sake Of the
scores of thousands Of vessels which each year
pass that dreaded point.

CUBAN TRADE MOFEMENTS.

Simple but significant are the latest statistics
of Cuban commerce. They cover the last two
fiscal years ending with June 80. 1900 and
1901, respectively They indicate in general
that the trade conditions of the island are i'm
proving, but that United States trade with the
island is ominously declining.
Imports into Cuba were 90 per cent less in
1901 than in 1900, indicating probably that the
island is being industrially rehabtated and
thus made able 10 supply more fully its own
needs. Exports from Cuba, the other hand,
were 39.5 per cent more in 1901 than in 1900
indicating a rehabilitation of the sugar and to-
bacco industries. Imports decreasing and ex-
ports increasing. until now the latter almost
equal the former and may next year surpass
them. may be regarded as a salutary state Of
affairs for Cuba.
What is OF especial significance to this coun-
try is, however the direction of trade-the
source of the imports and the destination of the
exports. It appears that imports into Cuba
from the United States were 81 per cent less in
1901 than in 1900. while those from Germany
were 294 more And at the same time. while
Cuban exports to the United States increased
31.4 per cent those to Germany increased 1926
per cent Figures for the other countries have
no especial significance and need not be re-
viewed in detail, save TO say that imports from
all save Germany showed a decrease, and eX-
ports to all except Spain showed An increase
The salient facts of the are that the United
States is selling less and less. and Germany is
selling more and more, to Cuba year after year
At the present time Cuba buys considerably
less than half--only 43 per cent-of her supplies
in the United States. and the amount is growing
less every year.
These are facts not only for statesmen and
philanthropists, but for practical business men
of all classes to consider. 1t seems easy for
some to get excited over rumors of German de-
signs upon South American naval stations. Is
it not worth while TO concern ourselves with
the fact that Germany is getting the markets of
Cuba away from us? The Monroe Doctrine is
a fine thing TO talk about in resounding abstrac-
tons But the concrete fact is that in the mar
kets of the Latin-American State nearest to us
of all. save one, European nations outsell the
United States; and content with only
$4,000 900 worth of goods, while other coun-
tries contribute nearly S37000.000. Is it not
worth while for the farmers and manufacturers
and merchants of this country to try to get a
share of that S37 100000 which now goes to
other lands? Especially since that can be done
through a simple act, which is prescribed by ma
tional honor and morality. and which-as we
have it on nnimpeachable authOrity-will not
materially injurc any United States industry?
