OF the main aims of Mr.. Coopers trip here
is to acquaint the administration with the
actual situation in Hawaii In his confer
ence with Secretary Wilson he emphasized
the seriousness of the labor problem. The
natives are dying off rapidly. the mortality
being in the neighborhood of forty deaths
10 the thousand, and foreign laborers are
setung out OF the country much more rap
ioIy than they are coming in.
1ne encouragement of Chinese labor he
sald, is regarded as the most promising So
luton, and he said the territorial govern
ment is anxious that large numbers of Ia
borers shall come in from China The
sugar cane crop, that should have been har-
vested at the beginning of July he said. is
not yet of the field, and will not be mar
vested before next month. The natives
generally will not work. The coffee indus
Try is languishing and many things that
should be raised there have to be bought
outside the islands
Secretary Wilson informed Mr.. Cooper Of
report from the superintendent of the
agricultural station in Honolulu showing
among other things, that it costs S26 an
acre to fertilize the cane crop in Hawaii
and pointed out the big farm wage which
mad to be paid to farm laborers, viz, $40
a month, including board, which is approx
imately, $40 more than in this country
Mr. Cooper suggested that the average
1arm wage might be even greater
Secretary Wilson told Mr.. Cooper of the
plans the department was making for Ha-
vail, and said that he intended to build up
the coffee, spice and rubber and other in
dustries and to help to diversity the Ha-
Wa1lan industries No attention will be
PAID to the sugar industry there, as Mr.
Wilson contends that that already is de-
veloped to the limit. The department IN
tends. said Mr.. Wilson, to make all these
islands within the United States raise what
to furnish everything that is needed among
themselves.

Forty Men Entombed in Rapid Tran
sit Tunnel in New York,
-FOUR DEAD ALREADY TAKEN OUT
Fate of Balance in Doubt, With
Chances Against Them.
NAMES OF THE VICTIMS

NEW YORK, October 1s,-Fifty tons of
rock caved in in the Rapid Transit tunnel
at 10th street and Broadway today, carry
ing death to an undetermined number of the
forty men who were at work far down be-
low the surface in the burrow. The known
dead are:
Peter O'Hara, aged siXty-five.
Daniel Kelleher, aged sixty.
Luigi Dahise, aged twenty-five.
Patrick Madden foreman.
Foreman Madden was found pinned down
by tons Of broken rock, only the feet being
clear of the mass of debris. Many Of the
other workmen were imprisoned in small
chamber of the excavation and their fate
will not be known until the rescuers who
are digging toward them reach the point
where they are entombed. They are 600
feet south of the great shaft, at the inter-
section Of 1G7th street and Broadway, and
110 feet underground.
Air Enough for Few Hours.
1t was estimated by some of the engineers
that there was air enough in the cavern
to keep ,the imprisoned men alive for sew
eral hours. The engineers decided that the
only way to get to the cavern was to tun-
mel around the rock which had fallen. This
would necessitate a small tunnel through
the dirt, the length of which would not be
estimated just as that time.
The contractors, McCabe Brothers, are
unable to explain the disaster. They said
1t was the west side of the tunnel work
that had collapsed, and that it had seemed
on inspection to have consisted of solid rock
and to have been very firm. The cave did
not extend to the surface.

Land at Manila.
MANILA, October 1S.-Fiske Warren, the
first man to take the oath Of allegiance re-
quired under the recent act of the Philip
pine commission of all suspects attempting
to land, has been closely identified with
Sixto Lopez. Many reasonable and infiam-
matory proclamations were found in his
baggage. Regarding these he said he had
only one copy of each, having retained these
as souvenirs. 1t is known also that he was
intimate with the members of the junta in
Hong Kong. He at first objected to taking
the oath. saying that he was a loyal citi-
zen. but he signed 1t when notified that on
no other condition would he be allowed to
land.
Some of his fellow-passengers told Civil
Governor Taft that Warren and Lopez
shook hands and retired for consultation
upon hearing of President McKinley's as
sassination.
Gov. Taft considers the action Of the
commission in requiring all suspects to
swear allegiance perfectly justified.
