PASSPORTS FOR FILIpINos.
The Request of Two Natives Wishins
10 Travel in Russia
IL Granted.

Washington, June 3.--In answer to
his application for instructions, Sec
rotary Hay has directed Ambassador
Choate, at London. to issue passports
to the two Filipinos who appeared
at the embassy Friday "as residents
OF the Philippine islands. and as such
entitled to the protection OF the
United States"
The decision upon this point is OF
Importance, as having perhaps some
bearing upon the status of the peo-
pie of the Philippines. Porto Rico and
Guam. A year ago the decision was
reached to regard the Porto Ricans as
entitled to the protection conveyed
by an American passport. but for
NAL decision of the test case was
prevented through the withdrawal
of the application. The Foraker act
determined the right of the Porto
Ricans as "citizens of Porto Rico"
to the protection of the United
States government. 1t is now held
that the Spooner law conveys the
same privilege to the inhabitants OF
the Philippines.
The United States statutes prohibit
the issue of passport to any but
American citizens. But these later
acts, the Foraker act and the Spoon
err act, impose obligations in their
turn which may be regarded as quail
flying the original act, and may en-
able the government to avoid deci-
sion upon the question of the Amer
lean citizenship of the islanders. At
any rate the circular instructions
now in formulation, which will be
sent out to all United States diplo-
matte and consular Representatives,
will direct them to issue, not certif-
icates, but genuine American pass
ports to the islanders.

Over 10 Lives Lost I'm Fires which
Destroyed Plantations on Is
land of Tehuantepec

Oaxaca, Mex, June 3.-Further de-
tails of the great fire which ragged on
the Isthmus of Tehuantepec for sever
al days have been received here. Over
20 people were unable to escape the
rapid progress of the flames and were
burned to death. The fire started on a
coffee plantation, and owing to the
dryness of the vegetation it was soon
beyond control and wrought great
destruction to growing crops. Many
thousands Of acres of coffee trees,
bananas, orange trees. and other trop-
ical products were destroyed. A num-
Der of plantation buildings were de-
stroyed. Those who met death
in the flames were all fam
lilies of plantation lsborcrs, who,
being unable to escape the fire, per-
ished in their huts. The fire burned
for ten days and was finally qucnched
by heavy tropical rain.

LOOMS VIII Not Return.

Washington, June lit is official
ly admitted that Minister Loomis will
not return to Venezuela. There are
two reasons for this decision. In the
first place, Mr.. LOOMS has suffered
in health at his uncongenial post, and
in the second place the president is
not disposed to expose him again to
the merciless attacks he has suffered
in Venezuela as a result of the exc
cution of the orders of the state de-
partment.

DEALING WITH CRIMES IN
CANADA.

From the Chcago-Tlmes Herald on jan
uary 18th. 1901.
The citizens of the Dominion OF
Canada have just cause to be proud
of their record as law-abiding people.
The annual report of the criminal
statistics of the Dominion, which has
a population of over G,000,000 shows
that there were only twenty-five in
dictments for murder in 1899, of
which only two were left without
final action. Eleven of those indicted
were hanged, nine acquitted and
three confined as insane.
Canada is country of vast proper
tons. Its people are scattered over
a wide stretch of territory, making
police surveillance particularly diff
cult and in many districts impossi-
BILE. Yet a city like New York or
Chicago alone furnishes a far greater
criminal list every year than the
whole vast stretch of territory from
Quebec to Vancouver.
THE Canadians ascribe their i'm.
munity from crime to the prompt
ness with which punishment is
meted out to offenders. When a man
is caught red-handed in the act of
robbing another he is not released on
straw bail by some justice of the
peace from the slums. to go out and
repeat the offense. Sharp and sure
justice is melted out to criminals of
all kinds, the result being that when
the guardians of the public peace
succeed in bringing a thug to the bar
they are seldom called upon to hunt
him a second time.
Furthermore there are few court
delays in Canada when a criminal is
brought to book. They have no
Dreyer cases over there. There are
no methods whereby Canadian Grim
inals can have the proceedings stayed
from month to month and from year
to year or after being convicted, APP
peal from one court to another until
witnesses die of old age or opportun-
ities for corruption can be found
Nor does this swift method of
treating with wrong-doers in Canada
leave the innocent unable to proper
" defend themselves. They have all
the opportunities and privileges that
our own laws extend to them. The
extent TO shield the guilty is lacking
that is all"
The above taken from the editorial
column of the Times Herald gives
some idea of the immunity from
crime that exists in Canada, and this
is one OF the many inducements held
out for Americans to settle in the
district known as Western Canada.
The season of 1901 will see a few sec
tions of the country opened up for
settlement. They are attractive in
every respect. 1t is understood that
one of the best Indian Reserves in
the famous Valley of the Saskat-
chewan will be opened up this year,
/ and an invitation is extended to those
| desiring homes to make inquiries.
! The price of the land is said TO be
/ nominal. Besides these lands. the
several railway companies have lands
to sell: also the Government. For
particulars write to the Agent of the
Government, whose advertisement
