Military Board OF the claims OF Holman & Co..
merchants. OF uoilo. for damage to and destruc-
ton OF property during the period OF appease-
rnent which findings have been approved by

against recompensing for similar property losses

the Manila and Dagupan Railroad. which are

SUPPLEMENTARY SPANISH TREATY.
RATIFIED BY THE SENATE. But WITHOUT
VOTE TO SPARE.

Washington, Jan 22-The Senate to-day in
executive session ratified the treaty with Spain
for the acquisition OF the islands Of Sibutu and
Cagayan OF the Philippine group, at a cost of
100000. There was no vote 10 spare, two
thirds vote being needed. and the voting stand
ing 3S TO -. In the debate preceding the rati-
fioation a number Of Senators manifested dis
position TO oppose the further acquisition OF
Oriental territory. Senators Lodge and Chand-
Ter spoke IN behalf OF the treaty and Senators
Bacon, Money and Pettigrew in opposition.
Senator Lodge, speaking for the Committee
on Foreign Relations, said that the treaty was
made necessary by the failure to include the
islands OF Sibutu and Cagayan in the original
negotiation by which the Philippines were ac-
quired and that it was necessary 10 acquire
of them. Their acquisition by any foreign
Power. he said. would be awkward circum-
stance for the United States. and should be pre-
vented before IT was too late.
The opposition Senators replied that the land
worthless TO the United States, and added
that as there no harbors on the coast of any
OF them there could be no object in any
other country taking them They also charged
that the islands IN the Sulu group, their
population is polygamous, and also that slavery
exists on the islands. Senator Pettigrew said
the new acquisitions We're nearer the island Of
Borneo than any of the other Of the islands
of the Pacific group. and he argued that IL
we are TO purchase Cagayan and Sibutu for the
defence Of our existing possessions we might
chasing Borneo for the protection Of Cagayan
and Sibutu.

FINDING fsUlI WITH JURORS.

Is it proper for a Judge 10 scold grand jury from the bench for refusing to indict person. whom the Judge thinks ought to be indicted?
 This question is suggested by an oe- currence op Tuesday in the court of Quarter Sessions of Hudson county, New Jersey. In his charging the grand jury, Judge John A. Blair said:
 "The whole court has examined the testimony taken before you in the Sul- livan case, and it is the unanimous and unqualified opinion Of the Court that the evidence was such. and sufficient for you to have founded an indictment. To take no notice of such negligent or wilfal disregard of duty on your part, and to permit you to depart with the thanks of the public from the Court would be equivalent to an acknowledg- ment of an agreement between the grand jury and the Court not to prose cute and punish manifest violations of law.n
 It seems that the jurors thus ad dressed constituted the third grand jury which had refused to find an iu- dictment against the person mentioned by Judge Blair. The foreman asked the Judge for leave to say a word in re sponse to the rebuke from the bench but this favor was peremptorily refused
 Now, it IS to be noted that the Con stitution and the laws of those states, in which the grand jnry system is pre- served, do not leave it to the Judges to SO say who shali be indicted. That function is conferred upon the grand jury.
 Of course, if a grand jury is induced by corruption, or friendship, or cow ardice, to ignore an accusation where they ought to find an indictment, they are properly censurable by somebody; but should they be reprimanded pub liciy by the Judge of the court in which they are serving, simply because the evidence which he has read in a cer- ta n case convinces him that they should have indicted person against whom no indictment has been found? <hAN SdNA a IdfS bCtA followed by refusal to permit any ex plantation from the foreman? Might it not well be that testimony which reads like the truth seemed unworthy of credit when heard from the mouths of the witnesses before the grand jury?
 It should be borne in mind that ju- ries, whether grand juries or trial iu- ries, are intended to be as independ; ent in their sphere of action as are Judges in theirs; and, except in cases of manifest misconduct, so plain as to be beyond question, Judge has really no more right to scold a jury, or i'm pugn their motives, or hold them up to public contempt, from his place on the beuch, than they have to crilicise the Jodge from their places in the jury box

will appear in a Benefit Performance in aid of the building fund for the Bis bee Woman's Club of Bisbee. This company is acknowledged to be one of the finest and best concert companies now on a tour through the south. west The company consists of the following: Miss Gretchen Bernett, who is ac- knUwledged to be one Of Caiifornia's most prominent contralto singers. Miss Bernett possesses voice of un- usual range, quality and richness Of tone and can only be chased wish such singers as the noted Emma Nevada.
 Miss Mahle Richardson is beyond all doubt the most pleasing reader that ever graduated from the famous Boston School O. Expression. Her voice be- ing clear and distinct and her gestures graceful Her lecture on Woman's Rights and Aux Italiens,' is one of the features of the evenings enter tainment. Miss Richsrdson's charm ing manner and excellent work never fails win her audience.
 Mir. Julius A. Haug is without doubt one of America s greatest violin solois Mr. Haug is a graduate from both the Vienna, Austria. and Lipesic conserv- atory of music of Paris. He is musi- elan of rare ability and is cocsidered one of America's greatest vIolinist for his age. Although quite young MT. Haug was the first director of the Vii enna Elite orchestra of Vienna, Aus tria. He has travelled extensively in Europe and has frequently played for royalty and was highly honored by gifts of their appreciation. While a violinist of rare ability Mir. Haug is a pianist of great ability, noted particu- larly for his technique and stacca etude by Rubenstein will give his audience great treat.
 Mir. Geo. L. Miller, the faI,ous Balti- more baritone singer, neye, fails to caplivate his audience with L magnif- icent voice, which is noted for it's rich silvery tone, excellent range and quail ty and the manner in which he handles it. Mir. Krommiller will appear twice during the program and bis solos will be highly appreciated.
 The concert closes with musical sketch of home life entitled 'Jang- iings." Admission S1.00 and s1.50.

THE payment of sl4,00o into the county treasury this week by the Cop per Queen company win in measure relieve the unsettled conditions re- garding the public schools throughout the county. deserves to show also that the Copper Queen company is not en- deavoriug to evade it's just burden of taxation, but the company no doubt feels that it has been unjustly discrim- mated against when other like prop erty in the territory has escaped.

DIFFICULTIES or TIE CONTRACT LABOR PROBLEM.

In his speech before the American Federation of Labor Edward F. Me- Sweeny, deputy commissioner of inn migration at the port of New York, de- ciared that the spirit of the cortrac. labor law was being violated by whole sale. It is to be presumed that he learned that this was so while ne was in the pursuance of his official duties, and if deputy commissioner of his sympathies and interests permits the violations to occur it must be because there are great practical obstacles to a thorough enforcement of the law.
 The subject is touched upon in the presidents message, where protection against laborers brought over by con tract is commended. But the principle aud an effective means of carrying it out are not the same thing, and il is doubtful if complete prohibition will ever be possible. because any conceiv- able law except race exclusion act can be easily evsded.
 All that Is necessary is to devise some method of agreement between the immigrant and the contractor which can be kept secret, and the mu- tual interest of the parties and the de- pendence of the one upon the other make this feasible. No break is likely to come before the immediate object of both has been accomplished, and after that the reopebing of an investigation is not probable or profitable. The off, cials have 100 much to do in attending to the current stream of newcomers.
 Race exclusion is, of course, iupos- sible except against the orientals, and as immigration runs now the orientals are a small factor in the general labor problem. Europe's contribution to the Unites States during the first nine months of the present year was 3s5, ,2sI; Asia's 10,514.

.- RETURNING witnesses from Tomb stone bring the intelligence that Judge Davis will probably render his decision in the tax cases before the adjourn ment of the present term of court. It is to be hoped that the decision of the court will be forthcoming at the earli- est pcssible date. This is much to be desired by both the company and the county The case has gone to the court on its Uerits. In event of either de- eision the case will probably go to the supreme court of the U. s.
