HOME FOR AMERICAN NEGROES.
Thomas Fortune Thinks Hawaii an
Ideal Place for Them

A dispatch from Honolulu, dated Deem
Der IL. says: Thomas Fortune, special labor
commissioner. appointed by Secretary Shaw
to visit the Philippines and Hawaiian Isl
ands, is here. In an interview he said:
Il believe the importation of negroes here
forms a natural solution Of the difficulty
which unavOidably follows the absorption
Of tropical or semi-tropical countries by
the United States. In the southern states
and in the Carolinas the negro made the
industries what they are"
The commissioner said that there might
be difficulty in OBTAINING the negro, but
he thought that the planters could get all
they wanted II they sent the right sort
of agents after them.
You could get 10000 here in six months. :"
he said, land in view Of the news from
Washington that the Senate gave a hostile
reception to the plan for allowing Chinese
to enter Hawaii as laborers, the views Of
Commissioner Fortune have attracted much
labor. The Merchants Association backed
by the builders and traders exchange and
other similar organizations, is preparing
to make fight in SUPPORT of the plan Of
fered by the plantation men to secure leg
islation from Congress allowing the i'm
portation Of Chinese laborers for plantation
work only unuer certain restrictions. Local
labor unions have decided against the prop
osition. and will oppose the plan. 1t is
understood that the matter will be the
subject one way or the other In the forth
coming report of the commission which re-
Gently visited Hawaii.

REFORM IN BRITISH NAVY.
New System Of Education Proposed
by the Admiralty.

A dispatch from London yesterday says
Official papers have been issued which
give full details of the new scheme for ma
val education, under which the training of
officers is to be unified and simplif1ed by
the adoption of single system for the
training of cadets for all three branches of
the service executive, engineers and ma
rines.
The Earl of Selborne, first lord Of the ad-
miralty, in an explanatory article, in which
he argues that modern developments OF the
navy require change In the personnel,
says:
I'm the old days 1t suficed If a naval Off
Ger was a seaman; now he must be a sea-
man, soldier, an engineer and man of
science as well. Today more knowledge and
study are needed than in the past, and the
highest type Of naval officer is that in which
great professional knowledge is added to
force Of character. The danger In the navy
tached to the result Of study, and lest the
value of what is called practical character
should be placed higher than it deserves"
The scheme as now detailed confirms the
previous forecast. 1t will become operative
next July. For the first seven years all ca
diets will receive Identical training in every
branch Of the service. special attention
being given to scientific study. Thencefor-
WdTu, IRON the age OF twenty, the CADETS
will be drafted into the different branches,
and will begin to specialize. The scheme
enables speedier promotion, provides for
revised rates of pay, the disappearance of
engineers disabilities and promotion to the
rank of commander by selection.
While the newspapers this morning gen.
orally commend the scheme as a courageous
attempt in the direction OF necessary re-
form, 1t is expected that 1t will meet with
considerable opposition. Its principal de-
feet, as pointed out in editorials this morn
ing. is that engineers and marine officers
will still be debarred from attaining flag

each man and his horse.

Laoag, North 1locos, Luzon, in 1900. At the
time specified Captain Howz was lieutenant
colonel of the 34th Volunteer Infantry.
Major Hunter said that native officials Of
Laoag had whipped certain prisoners, two
of whom died from the effects of this treat
ment. At the time of this alleged occur
renee Major Hunter was serving at Laoag.
He reported the matter in a letter to Gov
ernor Taft. who informed General Mac
Arthur. Captain How denied the charges.
An investigation was ordered, and the
bodies Of the two prisoners who died were
exhumed. In their report the investigators
held Captain Howz to be blameless.
General Miles brought Major Hunter to
the north Of Luzon and landed him at
Laoag before leaving the islands for China.
At present Major Hunter Is in Manila. He
says the investigation into the charges
against Captain Howz has not yet been
completed.
After leaving Manila General Miles sent
cablegram to Gen. j. Franklin Nell, direct
Ing him to report what cases of misconduct
on the part Of the enemy led to the issue Of
circular No. 8, in which it was charged that
the enemy had boloed American wounded,
had made use Of American uniforms had
planted internal machines, shot poisoned ar
rows, violated their paroles, assassinated
friendly natives, accepted Office under the
Americans for the purpose Of obtaining in
formation and had entered the American
lines by deceit. General Bell has written
an extended report enumerating the in
stances which justified him in his action.
The inquiry into the causes which led to
the death Of Father Augustin has been COM
pleted and forwarded to Washington. The
water cure was administered to Father Au-
gustin at Banate, Panay Island; the priest
died from the effects of this Treatment. 1t
Is said that a large sum of money has been
raised among the natives Of the southern
islands and sent to Boston to aid in the pri-
vate prosecution Of the Augustin case. The
claim has been made that this money was
intended for use against Maj Edwin F.
Glenn of the 9th Infantry, who is charged
with unlawfully an. willfully killing seven
prisoners Of war, and whose trial will be
continued here in January. Major Glenn,
however, was in no way connected with the
Augustin case.

New York Residences.
From the Boston Herald.


The number of private residences that are
being erected in New York for anybody but
rich people continues to grow steadily less.
Land values in the desirable residential sec
ton have increased SO enormously that in
expensive residences are out Of the ques-
ton. In a fashionable section like Murray
Hill building lot with only 25-foot 'front.'
age Is reckoned cheap at $75,0GO, and the
average cost of twenty-nine houses erected
on such lets this year has been $4,000 above
the price of the land on which they have
been built. These are reckoned only fairly
good houses sSixty-seven residences of
higher class erected this year are fetch
ing from 100000 to 100000 It Is reason
ably safe to say that in no city In the world
have SO many magnificent private resi-
dences been erected at such enormous cost
as has been the case on Manhattan Island,
particularly during the last three years.
And there are no signs of diminution OF
the demand for them from the rich people
who are fiocking thither from all over the
country.

The pumpkin is coming to its own, hut
not swiftly enough for the requirements OF
trade. The demand far exceeds the supply.
Those few farmers or commercial pumpkin
lists who grow this popular vegetable for
market will receive twice as much for II
this season as ever before. The canning
factories want to can more than a million
cans, but the raw material Is not forth
coming. The Importance and growth of the
pumpkin industry will be more fully realix-
ed whensit is known that one modest can

CHARGES OF CRUELTY.
Gen. Miles Refers Communication
From Natives to Gen. Davis.

from NATIVES Co 0eu. OdV1S.
A dispatch from Manila yesterday says:
Several official inquiries into charges of al
legged cruelty to natives by soldiers are at
present progressing throughout the Islands.
Some of these cases have been investigated
previously.
When General Miles was at Lipa, in the
province Of Batangas. Luzon. certain ma
tives laid charges before him that during
the campaign of Recommendation American
soldiers had committed acts Of cruelty and
violence. General Miles referred the mat
tiers to General Davis and the latter de-
tailed Col. Morris c. Foote Of the 18th In
fantry to investigate Colonel Foote found
the charge Of violence to be untrue, but it
Ii believed he found In some cases that the
water cure had been administered. His re-
port will be sent to Washington.
