ate Committee on Foreign Relations.
The President was informed that more
than half of the island is owned by
American citizens, and that many had
made large investments on the island
under the belief that the United States
would own it.
AS a result of the turning over of the
Isle of Pines to the republic of Cuba
for administrative purposes things are
said by the delegation to be in a chao-
tic state on the island. There is not a
notary public or a judicial officer on
the island. The delegation is informed
that the republic of Cuba claims the
Isle of Pines, and proposes to establish
prisons, penal colonies and a leper hos
pital there. Such a course If pursued,
the delegation indicated to the Presi-
dent, would wipe out every dollar in
vested in the island.
President Roosevelt promised to con-
slider the subject, but indicated no line
of procedure.

A special to the Sentinel from Madi-
son says: Senator John c. Spooner
has decided to call President Roose-
velt's attention to the reports of polit-
ical irregularities or outrages in the
Island of Porto Rica, and probably
will ask that an official investigation
be made. Senator Spooner left for

called there by the President for a
conference on the coming message to
Congress. The Senator will bring the
Porto Rican subject to the attention of
the President early this week.

BARK SIGHTS ICEBERG.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 11.-Tower-
ing 300 feet in air and lying along the
sea for seven miles was an iceberg
sighted by the French bark Engenie
Fautrel on September 14th far south
of Cape Horn in latitude 81 deg. south,
longitude 67 deg. 40 min. west. The
Fautrel arrived in port yesterday.
Scientists estimate that only one
eighth of an iceberg projects above
water, so that, if the berg was of the
same dimensions below the surface of
the ocean as above, it extended down
ward 2400 feet, or nearly half mile,
1t was a side of a glacier that had
broken off in the waters around the
Southern Pole. In the regions of the
North Pole icebergs two miles and a
half long and $50 to 200 feet high are
considered monsters, but they are
dwarfed by those of the other end of
the world.

SPECIAL TRIP.
Steamer Niihau Leaves For Kauai Fol-
Polo Ponies.

The Inter-Island Steamship Com
pany's boat "Niihau" will make a spe-
cial run today to Kauai and will it is
hoped bring up the Kauai polo ponies
and players. The boat starts at five
o'clock this afternoon and will return
early on Sunday morning. The Mi
kahala will also make her regular run
but as she does not return until Tues
day this would be too late for the OPEN
ing game between Maui and Kauai on
that day
Word was received by the polo men
today that the Kauai men found it i'm
possible to ship their ponies on account
of the heavy weather. The difficulty
lay not alone in the swimming of the
ponies to the steamer but also in the
rough weather in the channels causing
the boat to roll too badly for the ponies
to be fit for anything on arrival. The
Kauai ponies, fourteen in all, were con-
fidently expected this morning and
great disappointment was felt at their
non arrival. Kauai is expected to put
up very good game and arrangements
We're at once entered into in an en-
deavor to get the team with their
horses at all hazards. A letter was
written urging them to ship their po-
MES at some other landing than Lihue
If 1t would be any better and nego-
tiations were entered into with man
ager Kennedy of the Inter-Islannd to
get the Niihau which had a load of
coal to deliver at Kauai.
This was satisfactorily arranged and
if there is any possibility of accom-
plishing it the Kauai men and horses
will be here early on Sunday morning.
The Niihau is steady boat of wide
beam and could hold the ponies in
much better condition than the Mi
kahala.

THE KINAU.

The Examiner under the date of No

THE river steamer Mary CARAT
was in collision with the island steam
er Kinau this morning. The Kindu
was moored at Pacifc-street wharf
and the river boat was trying to make
a landing when the flood tide carried
her down and she crashed into the ISL
ander, carrying away her bulwarks and
making a big dent in her plates"
Wilder's Steamship Company receiv-
ed letter from their agents written
November IL, stating that the Kinau
was loading and would probably sail
November IA, but making no mention
of any accident to the steamer.

The first of The CentUry's series OF ex-

Combinations of To-Day" will appear
in the November Century, and will be
devoted to "The So-Called Beef Trust.
The writer is George Buchanan Fife,
who has made an investigation OF the
subject from many points OF view-the
packers, the local wholesalers, the re-
tailer's, the consumers, and that OF the
attorney general of the United States.
The aim OF this group of papers, as
announced by the editor, is mot to pre-
sent partisan view of these orRaDiza-
tions, either in attack or defense, but
to supply In an interesting manner
authoritative information as to the facts
and claims which bear upon the subject"
Mr.. Flies article deals with the organ
ization OF the grea. beef companies
rather than with the processes OF the
transmutation OF product, bat has not
a little to say on the by-products OF the
business.
Among the topics considered are the
understandings existing among the
packers, the causes controlling the prices
OF teef, the Kosher method OF slaugh-
tering, the influence OF the refrigerator
car, the growth and magnitude of the
industry, and the credit and notification
system by which the business is brought
almost to a cash basis.
