NOT WORTH THE COST.
Tariff on Philippine Ir1portations
Is Exceedingly Small.

Washington. September 1.--surnris-
ing results have followed the com.
pllatlon OF tarir returns on goods
Imported from the Philippines during
the hrst Ave months OF the opera
tlon OF the Philippine tarlm act an
proved March last. Under that
act IS per cent Of the Din1iey rates
were to be collected on PhIlippine
Imports into the United states ana
this was TO be held as trust fund
IN the United States treasury. AT,
though when the act was passed Il
was realized that the Imposition OF
any duties Of this kind would be
restrictive OF trade Il was argued
that as the returns would be some
where in the neighborhood OF $780,
GOO per annum, that consideration
would outweigh the drawbacks Of
maintaining tariff system against
the Philippines Returns Just pub.

THE FANNIE KERR.

boat. When the China reached Homo
lulu and the officers were informed of
the abandonment of the Fannie Kerr,
they expressed The belief that the yes
sci they had sighted, was the Fannie
Kerr. Captain Friele of the China took
no stock in the story however, nor did
any of the other officers.
1T is thought more than likely, that
the report in the photographic office
originated from this report, for the
China's officers and passengers stated
in San Francisco the latter part of
June that they had seen the Fannie
Kerr, when as a matter of fact, it was
proved that the boat they sighted was
an entirely different vessel. 81
mo report of the derelict having
been sighted has been published by any
Seattle, Victoria or San Francisco pa
per and as it is at only one of those
ports that the report would have been
made. there is excellent reason for
taking the photographic report with a
grain of salt.
1T may be that the position given the
derelict on the chart is a mere comps
taton by the photographic officer as to
where the derelict would be on June ~

ton based on the direction and speed

RQSEHILL AHEAD,

WASHINGTON July 2S-Captain A.
RosGhill who is ready to dispute with
Japan the ownership OF Marcus Island,
with its rich guano beds, has more than
two weeks start of the Japanese war
ship which sailed on Saturday for the
speCk in the far-off Pacific. Until the
State Department received today from
Minister Buck al Toxic a cablegram it
was supposed the Japanese Government
had already dispatched a warship to
Marcus Island. The telegram stated
that the Japanese Warship would start
the following day Sunday for Marcus
Island 10 establish Japans claim to the
island. Minister Buck stated that Off
Gals of the Foreign Office had embark
ed on the Japanese warship and that
the communication of the State DEPART
ment to Captain Rosehill advising him
not to dispute with the Japanese var
ship the title to the island would be in
trusted for delivery to these officials.
But while the doughty Captain Rose
hill has many days start of the Japan
csc warship in the trans-Pacific race
for the coveted gUanO beds, there IS no
certainty that he will first gain the
goal. Ii is 2150 miles from Honolulu,
from which port Captain Rosehill de-
parted on July II. From Yokohama to
Marcus Island it is 500 miles. The war
snip is, OF course, much faster than the
schooner. Even if Captain Rosehill
lands first he will probably not resist
the Japanese warship's landing parties,
He would, of course, be wOrsted in any
test of strength. AS the matter now
stands, the State Department will take
no action until an appeal is raised from
Captain ROsehill, and no such appeal
will be made until after he has visited
Marcus Island ard definitely learned
the attitude of the japanese Govern
ment At any rate there are a number
of Japanese on the island at the pres
ent time who are not disposed to be
friendly to any foreigner who attempts
to land.

A letter has been received by
Capt. j. c. Terrell of Fort Worth
from Judge j. +. Cooper Of the
Philippine Islands. Judge Cooper,
who formerly resided in Fort Worth,
is at present a member Of the su-
preme court of the Philippines. In
his letter to Capt. Terrell he de-
scribes at some length the condi-
tions prevailing in the islands, say
ing among other things that the
country is very productive and that
the climate is rather pleasant. Hs
commented in most compliments
ry manner on the American troops
and spoke very highly Of the Off
GERS in command.
He referred to the fact that not
few of the Filipinos were highly
intellectual and said that their ar
guments before the supreme court
were interesting and that they were
quick to comprehend legal PROPOSE
tons and to present them forcibly
to the court.
He stated that while most Of hi:
time had been spent at Manila, he
had nevertheless visited other points
on the islands and was surprised tc
learn that the population was mucl
denser than he had thought; that OF
one occasion he visited a near b.
town and was asked by his attend
ant what he thought the population
of the place was, and his guess wa
about u hundred, and that he wa
told the population was fully 1900
Notwithstanding the fact that TIT
population is very large in certain
quarters Judge Cooper says they ar
very healthy and their cleanliness
marked.
He referred to fights which hav
already been covered by dispatches
tions.

Nothing Like II.

BY sinking pipes into the ground
to a depth of eight to ten feet the
farmers about Humble have sue
ceeded in striking gas and utilizing
the heat generated in sowing their
cabbage crop from destruction by
frost. Assistant Passenger Agent
Doherty of tn, Houston East and
West Texas railway is authority for
the statement. BY accident, while
erecting an improvised fence the
fact was discovered. A hollow post
was driven into the earth a few
feet Something whizzed at the top
A match settled the question. Nat
ural gas was pouring out in a con-
tinuous pressure.
The idea of thus protecting the
cabbage by utilizing this product
was conceived and now all through
the cabbage fields in this section Of
the country hundreds Of pipes have
been sunk into the earth, valves ft-
ted to them and the approach Of a
norther hailed by counteracting
fires. This method Of fighting frost
has passed the experimental stage
and the entire country is alight dur
ing cold weather.
1t was only this year that s. H.
Dixon, chief of the immigration de-
partment Of the Houston East and
West Texas railroad succeeded in
introducing cabbage culture along
that line Of road. Frost Is the
greatest foe to this product, but
now a method Of successfully COM
batting the cold weather has been
discovered.
The phenomena seems almost in
credible, but the best authority for
the statement is given, one Of the
highest officials Of the Houston
East and West Texas railway, who
returned from trip over the road
"And l can take you to plenty o.
places" emphatically stated Mr.
Doherty, "where you can stick
hollow pipe into the ground eight
feet and get a steady pressure Of
gas"
