The Island of Guam.


Mr.. Hackett calls attention to the
annual report of Commander Seatoon
Schroeder. governor of Guam. which
shows that the sum raised by taxation
during last year was S53,356. gain
over the preceding year of sll,5o3.
The money is applied TO the building
of roads. the repair of bridges and
the support of schools. Commander
Schroeder calls the attention of the
department to the fact that if the
supreme court decides that duties
may not be levied upon articles ex-
ported from any state, the loss of in
come to Guam will total about S12,-
762. and he asks an allotment from an
emergency fund to meet such posi-
bility. The three projects of primary
importance to Guam, says Comman-

roads and a better water supply. In

that revenue of 81 500 was raised

Mr.. Hackett announces that Com
maner Uriel Sebree is to assume COM
mand of the naval station at Tutuila
in place of Capt. Tilley.
The Naval Militia.
Notwithstanding the lack OF inter
est displayed by some states having
naval militia, Mr.. Hackett strongly
urges a continuance OF the organiza-
