THE CONVICTION OF GLEyyoE.

With Bissert in States prison under five
years sentence, after exhausting all the means
of delay which the law affords: with Diamond
convicted, fined and dismissed from the force;
with Cannon, Shells and Dwyer under indict-
ment. and finally, with Glennon convicted, Mr..
Philbin may retire to his private practice with
q feeling of satisfaction in his achievements
and in the verdict of his fellow citizens that he
has been eminently a district attorney who
does things
The conviction of Glennon means even more
than that of either Bissert or Diamond. Glen
non was far more important cog in the engine
of police corruption, blackmail and extortion
than any captain in the department. He was
recognized Devery's confidential agent and
he had habit of walking into precinct stations
and giving his orders to commanders with an
assurance born Of knowledge that they had to
be obeyed. In the circumstances therefore his
conviction was all the harder to secure, for the
malign and subtle influences Of the Police De-
partment were employed in his behalf TO far
greater degree than for Diamond, Bissert or
any Of the others.
Glennon has represented the Devery system
more truly than any other man on the force,
and when a jury finds him guilty, it puts the
stamp of its condemnation on Deveryism and
al that the term signifies.

RECIPROCITY WITH CUBA.

The Tribune's special Washington correspond
ence this morning contains an extended and
detailed discussion Of the question Of reel
1rocity with Cuba which We commend for
thoughtful perusal TO all who are not yet fully
convinced OF the wisdom and desirability OF
establishing with that island such relations as
President Roosevelt has well described as de-
manded by both national morality and national
interest. Our correspondent takes no extreme
view of the case. aud ignores no essential fac
tor. Small as is the production of sugar in the
United States. he recognizes in II an industry
worthy of protection. But he shows, as we
think oonvincngly. that it would be possible TO
adopt a measure of reciprocity which would
give Cuba adequate relief, and would at the
same tina give adequate protection 10 our
domestic sugar industry.
AT the present time our domestic sugar indus
try enjoys a protection of between 30 and 75
per cent ad Talerem- That is a very high rate
II is far higher than most Of our protected
industries enjoy. Under lower rates other in
dustries have in a few years grown 10 proper
tions so vast SIS 10 supply the major part of
our demand. But despite this exceptionally
high protection our domestic sugar interests
make practically no progress toward supplying
the demand. They are increasing their produc
tion from year to year, but they are not keep
ing pace with the increase of consumption, so
that in spite of the increase IN domestic pro-
duction the amount Of sugar necessarily i'm
ported from foreign countries is also and more
rapidly increasing. At the present time between
50 and so per cent Of cur sugar supply comes
from outside the United States. And reckon
ing as domestic the sugar of Hawaii and Porto
Rico, and supposing the productive powers Of
those islands 10 be fully developed. there would
still be an enormous deficit 10 be filled from
foreign lands. The Agricultural Department at
Washington is most friendly TO the beet sugar
enterprise, yet one Of its best informed special
agents estimates that, over and above all the
increase OF beet sugar production. and over and
shove all the sugar shall get from our insu-
lar dependencies, this country viii have to
import considerable sugar for generations to
come" That expert estimate is TO be COM
mended TO the consideration of those en-
xhusiasts who have been predicting vast a

THAT COPPER REPORT.

| Tho statement made by the directors ol tle
Ama1eamated Copper Company is curious
| contribution to the meagre informauoh respect
ing the inside workings of that great colpoi d
tion The public have not to any large extent
| heen taken into the confidence OF lhe hdnaSe-
| rpent. The statement lifts only the mere euse
of the mystery that enshrouds the Amaiga-
| mated's methods of business
| After a scant review Of the trade conol'lohs
| which have led to the present state OF the
uorld,s conner markets the directors apparent
" seek to cast a large part OF the blame upon
tho other great producers of the metal, who
have refused TO join hands with the Amalsa-
mated in keeping copper at an artihcially high
| price The directors then assure the stock
| holders that Notwithstanding these condi-
| tions' within a month the company has dis
| Dosed of one hundred million pounds of the
metal for future delivery. but neglect to state
at what price 1t seems, however, a shrewd
guess that such sale must have been made
with the guarantee of rebate II copper sold
lower at any date between the sale and de-
livery Copper to the consumer has been cut
four cents pound in the last few days. ana the
end is not yet. Every cent down on this mass
of metal would mean rebate of S1,0OOooo
so that if this copper was sold on these terms
the margin of the Amalgamateds pfohts must
have already been heavily cut into, IL not
wiped out altogether. The statement then
holds out a promise that the company will be
able to produce copper in the future at a cost
that can successfully compete with any copper
producer in the world. but declares that the
future prosperity of the copper business Will
depend largely upon such revival of foreign
trade as will bring the total consumption OF
copper nearer 10 the production than is the
case at present
1t is certainly an ingenious, but scarcely an
ingenious, report. SO little light does it shed
that it may be said still further to deepen the
heavy shadow that already rests on the future
outlook Of the Amalgamated 1t would seem,
however that the management has been trying
to controvert natures law of supply and de-
mand, with results that have been far disas-
trous for the company's finances and unfortu-
nate stockholders. This statement only serves
to emphasize again that companies of blind
pool nature should not be permitted to exist.
Their securities should not be dealt in
Change TO the injury of the innocent. An in
dustriaI corporation, such this one, should
make reports at stated intervals Of its gross
and net receipts, and give other Information
of its doings, prescribed by law, and
in manner similar TO that followed by the
railroads. The wrongs done in the past 1t Is
made against a repetition of such wrongs in
the future, by making an end of blind pool
companies by legal enactment

A GIGANTIC CONSPIRACY.
It Is Said to Contemplate tho Erection cs New Republic Out of tho
 Northwest Territory.

San Francisco, Nov. 1S.-The Can prints an unconfirmed story from Skagway, Alaska, under date of No- venber 6, telling of the discovery of what is alleged to be huge con spiracy existing in Dawson, and rami- flying to Skagway, Victoria, Vancouver and Seattle, for the overthrow of the local government of the Northwest Territory and the establishment of republic with Dawson as it's capital
 According to the details of the story, arms, ammunition and provi- sions have been taken in over the rail- road and cached at stragetic points.
 Prominent American residents of Skagway are said to be ringleaders in the conspiracy. Miners to the number of 5000 are said to await the summon to arms, ready to fight for the independence from Dominion rule of the gold fields, camps and towns.
 The plan is to overpower the mount. ed police, arrest the civil authorities and take the government into their own hands. The rigors of the Arctic winters would give the insurgents six months immunity from attack by Ca nadian or British troops, and the at!- venturous arch-conspirators hope for intervention or outside assistance by the time the melting of ice and snow will permit the invasion of their iso lated republic.
 It is further related that hur- ried conference until midnight was held at Skagway November 5, at which were present Capt. Corrigan of the Northwest mounted police. who had arrived from across the Canadian: border late that evening; Judge Brown, of the United States district court; United States Marshal Shoupe; United States Attorney Frederick and Maj. Hovey, commanding the United States troops at Skagway.
 This was the last of several nasty consultations between the civil and military authorities of the two DOW CTS in relation to the mysterious transportation of supplies into the interior and rumors of a conspiracy to lead the miners in a revolt against Canadian government in the North west Territory. Those present main- tained subsequently the strictest si- fence concerning the new evidence laid before them, and their evident anxiety helped to confirm the rumors of conspiracy.
 Capt. Corrigan took train back across the border the next morning, while United States Marshal Shoupe embarked on the first steamer for Se- attle, which port he reached several days ago. The object of his visit was, bly,, to confer by telegraph with the authorities at Washington. He sailed Saturday afternoon on the Dolphin, on his way back to Skagway.

PRO-BOER DEMONSTRATION
British Fishing Smack Attacked by
 Crew of a Dutch Fishery Bont in the North Sea.

London. Nov. 1S.--An extraordinary demonstration of pro-Boerism is re- ported by a Brussels newspaper. It seems that a Dutch fishing boat be- longing to Ymuidon, while off Well, ingen lightship, in the North Sea, pre- tended to be in distress and ap preached British smack. Thirteen fishermen from the Dutch boat board ed the British craft and attacked the crew of the latter, shouting Long Live the Boers." Several of the Brit ishers were wounded.
 It is allgeed that before making the attack the Dutchmen locked their captain i'm his cabin.
 The British smack succeeded in es- caping and arrived at Ostend, where the captain lodged complaint with the British consul.

EX-OUEEN LIL IS COMING.
I'm Search of Henlth and the PrOtec- ton of Revenues from Hawaaf- nm Crown Lands.

San Francisco, Nov. 1S.-Former Queen Liliuokalani of Hawaii, who ar rived here Saturday, is combining business and pleasure. Besides seek ing recovery of health, she has come to consult with the federal authorl- ties relative to the crown lands lii Hawaii. These were sequestrated by the revolutionary government at the time the monarchy was overthrown, and no attempt has since been made 10 reimburse her for the loss of the crown revenues, amounting to some S1OO ,OoO a year. The Territorial leg islature passed a bill appropriatinS $250,O00 for the crown lands, but President Dole vetoed the bill on the ground that there was not sufficient money in the treasury to pay It. Subsequently, the legislature offered to grant her a pension of S23,00o a year. but she refused to accept the money for the reason that it would place her on the list of charitables, a step that was repugnant to her.
 Before the annexation of the isl lands she was advised by competent attorneys to sumbit her claims to England for arbitration. The crown lands are over a million acres in eN- tent, and are worth about %15,0O0.Ooo
