THE IRISH QUESTION.
Plan Under which the vexed Prob.
lem May he Solved within
Year.

Chicago, Nov. 4.-The Tribune's
London correspondent says: Leaders
of the Irish nationalists see a settle
ment of the Irish land problem within
year. They expect compulsory act
under which the landlords, whose rule
has been the bane of the island for
centuries, will be bought out by the
tenants. BY this plan the British gov
ernment will act as realty agent and
advance by a system of credits and
yearly installments the tremendous
sum of S500,000,000 as the purchase
price for the tenants.
That the government believes that
the purchase of the Irish estates is the
right solution is asserted by George
Wyndham, NJ. p, chief secretary for
Ireland. By former acts the govern
ment has already advanced 500, 0,000,-
900, and thus enabled 10000 tenants to
purchase their holdings. This was in
the richest districts. There has been
no relief in the poor sections of west
ern Ireland, where the most suffering
is reported. The plan worked well.
Only three tenants were behind in this
years repayment of their INSTALL
ments to the government. AS result
of the same legislation, S150,O0C, 600 is
available now for future purchase.
The Irish leaders see in every step
of the government progress toward
settlement. Chief Secretary Wynd-
ham is ambitious to effect a solution.
There are 100000 tenants in Ireland.
OF this number 10000 have bought
their holdings, using the $100,000,000
extended in credits by the govern
ment. OF the remaining 100000 more
than half live on eight or ten-acre
tracts.
Many landlords are favoring a
speedy settlement of the agitation,
which for so many decades have kept
their tenants in state bordering on
rebellion. The landlords have suf-
fered reduction in their rents of at
least 40 per cent by the past acts of
their tenants. They have been COM
PEELED to incumber their estates with
heavy mortgages and have been to the
expense of costly litigation, and they
are at the mercy of periodical rent re-
valuations.

DYING OF MEASLES.
thousands of Natives Along the
Arctic Coast Fall Victims to
the Disease.

San Francisco, Nov. 4.-Thousands
of natives of Herschel Island and along
the Arctic coast, are dying from
measles. The news was brought by
the whaling steamer jeanette, which
arrived Sunday from whaling cruise.
Capt. Newth, of the jeanette, said:
AT least 25 per cent. of the natives
along the Arctic coast have died from
measles. They are dying off like rab-
bits, and there seems to be nothing to
check the death rate. The march of
civilization has increased the death
rate from Nome north. Two years
ago the devastation began, and it has
continued ever since. When the ma
tives began to- wear civilized mans
clothing and drink white mans
whisky, then began their decline Dis
eases unheard of attacked them, and.
not knowing how to care for them
selves the people died rapidly. Pneu-
monia, rheumatism, grip and every
conceivable malady made their ap-
pearance among them and spread all
along the coast With appalling re-
suits"

SHE SURRENDERS.
Laura BiEgar Finds Difficulty In Get
ting Into Jail on Giving
Herself Up.

Freehold, n. j., Nov. 4.-Miss Laura
Biggar, for whom a warrant was is
sued for attempt at fraud in connec-
ton with the will of the late million
aire, Henry NJ. Bennett, experienced
considerable difficulty in gaining ad-
mission to the county Jail here when
she appeared at the sheriff's Office
Monday and announced that she de-
sired TO surrender herself. The diff
Guilty arose over the fact that the war
rant was in the hands of constable
at Asbury Park, and the sheriff de-
clined to take the responsibility of
locking up the would-be prisoner un-
til the document had been formally
served on her. Miss Biggar, finding
the sheriff obdurate, insisted on wait
ing in the witness room of the jail un-
til the constable arrived with the war
rant, when the sheriff's scruples hav-
ing been removed, he consented to re-
ceive Miss Biggar as prisoner. Coun-
sci for Miss Biggar said that since tlx
accusation was laid against her she
had been living in New York. She
would not, he said, accept bail so long
as it was not Forthcoming for Hen
bricks and Stanton. 1t is understood
that no indictment has yet been found
against Miss Biggar.

CUBAN CONGRESS-.
Body Reconvenes After Severa1 Days
of Recess-Points In Presi-
dents Message.

Havana, Nov. 4.-The Cuban con-
gress, which adjourned October 90,
reconvened Monday. President Palma,
In his message to congress, takes
an optimistic view of the future of
the republic. He refers to the remark
ably good order that has been pre-
served throughout the island, which
ne says is proof of the peaceful nature
OF the Cuban people. The president
says also that the sanitary condition
OF Cuba is to-day even better than it
was during the period of American in
tervention.
Our relations with the Unit ed
States" continues the message, "are
especially cordial Proof of this is
found in the negotiations between
Cuba and the United States for com
merclal treaty, on basis of mutual
tariff concessions. The special object
Of this treaty is to obtain positive ad-
vantages for our products, particular
ly sugar, which is the principal basis
of Cuban wealth.
1T can be hoped, from the sympathy
with which the American people re-
gard us, and from the manifest inter-
est which President Roosevelt enter
tains in the prosperity of Cuba, that
reasonable arrangement, by means
of this treaty, can be arrived at.
"The state of the treasury is ex-
tremely encouraging. The balance on
hand is S1,561,942. This condition gives
reason to hope that by the honest ad-
ministration of the public revenues
there will be sufficient funds to give
important encouragement to agricul-
tural pursuits in all the provinces
of the island"
President Palma makes mention of
the foreign nations, which have rec
ognized the Cuban republic. His only
reference to the Platt amendment was
contained in statement to the effect
that he had made ample appropriation
to carry on sanitation, as provided for
in the amendment.
