LABOR AND SUGAR.

W. o. Smith had a number of points
of general information, which he read
as follows:
REJOINDER TO CERTAIN STATE
MENTS MADE BEFORE THE
COMMITTEE OF THE UNITED
STATES SENATE.
Japanese Immigration.-It has been
stated that from August 18th, 1885, to
June 14th, 1900 in round numbers 40 900
japanese We're brought into this coun-
try, and only twenty-four returned.
By the annexed table "A" it will be
seen that within the dates mentioned
the immigration of japanese was 2S 1858
males, 1856 females and 92S children,
while the emigration for the same
period was 3,571 males, 739 females and
$40 children.
The statement made by Mr. Hum
phreys that during the same period
only twenty-four japanese returned to
Japan is incorrect, for as matter of
fact, 1853 japanese. including women
and children, or 3,57l adult males, left
Hawaii These figures may be relied
upon.
The statement made that 10000 Jap
anese came into the country. If intenueu
to convey the idea that that number
of male laborers arrived. is considerably
astray as Is also his statement concern
ing the number who in that time left
the country. Mr.. Humphreys avoided
reference to the departures of Chinese
during the same period. which, as may
be seen from the annexed table, show
an excess over arrivals of 1853 adult
males.
A statement showing the arrivals and
departures of Japanese and Chinese
from June 14th. 1900. to June 30th. 1902,
was submitted to the Commission on
the 18th inst. along with the report
of the Planters Association. but II
might be as we'll to repeat the state
ments therein contained that for this
period of a little more than two years
the immigration of male japanese was
6.606, and the emigration 6,2s4 being
an increase of 322 only. whereas the
immigration of male Chinese for the
like period was 1908. and the emigra-
ton $40. making a reduction in the
Chinese population of 1867 for that
period. Taking both nationalties OF
japanese and Chinese, this period shows
an excess OF emigration over immigra-
ton of 12i5 adult males.
tSee Table "A').
Alien Proprietorship.-A Statement,
has been made that the sugar industry
of the Islands is under the control OF
two British and two German firms. The
facts are that of the s74.ss4.Ooo capital

Mr.. ROOT SAILS FOR CUBA
SECRETARY OF WAR TO PLAN FOR
WITHDRAWAL OF TROOPS.
Wishes to Personally View the situa-
tion Before Issuing Final Orders
Palma Also Sails.

NEW YORK, April 17.-Secretary Root
started for Cuba to-day the steamship
Esperanza. Discussing his trip before the
steamer sailed he said ~ am going down
TO look over the field and lay plans for
the withdrawal of our troops from the
island on May 20. There is no great sig
nifcance in my trip. 1 want to be on the
ground and see for myself just what the
situation demands before l issue the final
orders"
The secretary would not discuss the pros
poets of the new Cuban government. II
am not prophesying," he said My func-
tion ends with the carrying out of the
orders of the government to withdraw our
troops and leave everything in as good
condition as possible for the new Cuban
government to take control
Mr.. Root would not discuss his order to
General Chaffee TO court-martial James +.
Smith. II have said all 1 intend to on the
subject of my order TO General Chaffee.
Some OF the courts-maritial will be held in
this country because some of the regi-
ments from which witnesses will be needed
have been brought home, and il will be
much easier to secure the evidence wanted
here than in Manila. / cannot saw now
whether any of the officers against whom
charges have been preferred will be tried
in Manila"

VIII Vote to Overrule the Speaker oi
the House and Amend the Gu
ban Reciprocity Bill.
WILL STRIKE AT SUGAR TRUST
By VOTING TO REMOVE THE DUTY
ON THE REFINED ARTICLE.
Sensational speech by Mr.. Cushman
a Republican, Against Majority
Leaders of the House.

WASHINGTON, April 1.-THE Democrats
of the House, at a caucus held tonight,
by very large majority. estimated at three
to one, adopted the following resolution,
itroduced by Mr.. Swanson of Virginia:
Resolved, That favor the removal
of the differential on refined sugar, both
from Cuba and elsewhere, and believe that
such amendments are properly in order,
and we insist that ii is the duty of all
Democrats TO vote whenever opportunity
is given, to have these amendments added
TO the pending bill providing for Cuban
reciprocity. We are opposed to the adop-
ton of the previous question when the bill
is reported to the House unless 1t shall
have been properly amended in committee
of the whole, this will prevent an op-
portunity for just and proper amendment,
with recorded votes on the same.
Resolved, further. That the action of
this caucus is binding
The caucus was rather turbulent during
the early part of the evening but toward
the close the difference disappeared and
it broke up amid evidences of harmony and
good feeling The action taken tonight
binds the Democrats to vote to abolish the
differental on refined sugar and against
the previous question.

their votes that they have not misrepre

contended, said he, on the other side that
the tariff which had developed the gigantic
trusts should be reformed by it's friends.
Il think he exclaimed, that the tariff
should be reformed by the friends of the

Proceeding, Mr.. De Almond explained
that later on a motion would be made TO
amend the bill to take the differential off Of
refined sugar-the differential put in the bill
for the benefit of the trust. Then, he said
would come "the beautiful spectacle we
have witnessed so often-the rules would
stand in the way and members would hide
behind the rules. But Mr.. De Almond
warned members that they could not JUS
tify themselves with such plea. This will
be your chance" he said; you are either
for this trust you are against 1t. If you
are against IL do not let a spider-web rule
stand in your path. /. for one, do not pro-
pose 10 allow such film to har my way when

ice for the American people. The man who

tory and before his constituents and this

fuses to consider. Democratic applause I
Mr. Cushman declared that a majority of
the Republicans OF the House were to-day
opposed. although a majority were un-
doubtedly convinced that il would be better
for them to be I'm favor of il. He intimated
that the speakers position was responsible
for the change of attitude of many of the
members, and followed this statement with

BAIL FOR E. G. RATHBONE
FORMER DIRECTOR OF CUBAN POSTS
MAY BE RELEASED TODAY.
Bond for 100000 Filed by n Fidelity
COmpany-Interpreta of Or
der No. % an Issue.

HAVANA. April 1.-THE question of ad-
hitting Estes G. Rathbone to bail now
rests on the Interpretation of order No. %
and upon whether English or Spanish is the
official language of Cuba. In English order
No % reads that the bond of any fidelity
company may be accepted" by the court
as security, but the Spanish translation of
this order, according to Spanish scholars,
reads that bond must be accepted from
any such company offering one. A fidelity
company has filed a bond for 100000 with
the court as bail for Rathbone's appear
ance but this bond has not yet been ac-
cepted.
Counsel for Rathbone accept the Spanish
translation of order No. 81 in demanding
that the bail for their client be accepted,
but the military authorities insist that the
English is the official language of Cuba.
and that, according to the English wording
of the order. acceptance of the bond is OPP
tional with the court.
Inquiries made at the palace to-day
brought forth an expression OF the opinion
that the military government cannot In
terfere with the court in this matter; yet
the president of the AudeDcia and the
associate judges of that court hold almost
daily conferences with the military Cover
nor of the island.
The fiscal who is studying the question
of admitting Rathbone to bail held a long
conference with General Wood this morn
ing. 1t is said the former takes the ground
that the bail must be accepted and that
the Spanish translation of order No. 81 is
official.
Rathbone will be admitted to bail to-
morrow

MISS STONE NOT ENJOINED.
Hearing of Case POstpOned-Aims of
the Returned Missionary.

BOSTON, April 17.-Judge Fessenden In
the Superior Court this afternoon refused to
grant the petition of a lecture bureau for
an injunction enjoiGing Miss Ellen NJ.
Stone, the missionary from lecturing un-
der the management of a rival concern,
and the case was assigned for a hearing
on its merits Thursday next
Miss Stone tonight gave to the American
Board of Commissioners for Foreign Mis-
sions Il statement in which she says. that
it having been presented her as an i'm
perative duty to reoite her experiences in
captivity, in a public way, it was in her
heart TO devote the proceeds towards re-
imbursing any one who may have
embarrassed themselves in providing the
ransom. The further hope grew that she
might do something for these missionary
purposes to which she had given her life: :
such. for instance, as the establishment
of an industrial school in Macedonia, in
which young men may be trained i'm legiti-
mate occupations, so that they may not
grow up TO become brigands. Miss Stone
said that she had these purposes at heart
mally her intentions in this matter. lest it
should appear like prOclaiming what these
who had known her would naturally SUP
pose TO be her motive. In conclusion she
says: yet. inasmuch il has been init
mated TO me that those who had not known
me might suppose that my friends or |
have I'm view a purpose Of personal enrich
ment. 1 am glad to state the fact that In
my life and labOrs here at home or abroad
! am still the missionary of Christ and shall
may have TO the promotion of the kingdom
of God"

Hoey, former United States collector of
customs at the port of Nogales, who was
charged with being implicated in a con-
spiracy to smuggle Chinese across the bor-
der from Mexico, was acquitted to-day.
The jury took but one ballot. The testi-
mony presented by the government was
very weak. The defense maintained that
George Webb and j. L. Hathaway, mounted
inspectors, were engaged in smuggling Chi
nese into the United States When they
learned they were suspected, it is alleged,
in order to protect themselves, they joined
with Special Agent Dickey, of the United
States secret service, TO implicate Eoey.
The case created great interest. Mr.. Hoey
is a former resident Of Muncie, Ind. This
was the second trial of his case.

VI. sIPIAGUINE's MURDER,
That Caused JOY
Among the Radicals Of Russia.

ST. PETERSBURG, April 17.-Although
NJ Sipiagune the minister of the interior.
who was assassinated April l5, was not ac-
tually leader of the reactionary party IN
Russia. he was the tool of those, in the
opinion of many who were responsible for
the prevailing situation. His assassination
was hailed with JOY in Radical circles For
a month there had been daily rumors of
Sipiaguine's impending resignation, owing
to disa greements with the governor general
of Moscow, the Grand Duke Sergfus who
has been supporting the novel policy TO-

Sipiaguine spent immense sums in redeco-
rating his residence. A single chandelier
alone cost $1,000 roubles, and he was ac-
cused of appropriating 10000 roubles from
the secret service funds. The deceased was
by no means talented and owed his posi-

Count Shermetieff. the bosom friend or Car
Alexander III, and 70 the Dowager Czarina,

Shortly before Sipiaguine was appointed
minister of the interior he married the
elder sister of Count Shermetieffs wife, the
Princess Niasemski, a brilliant woman
friend of the CZarina. Count Shermetieff

HOUSE WILL VOTE TO-DAY.
Fate of the Cuban Bill to BE known
SOOn-Cushman's Speech.


WASHINGTON, April 17.-GeneraI debate
on the Cuban reciprocity bill closes to-
morrow at o'clock. and it is the intention
of the House leaders, if possible, to force
a final vote on the passage of the bill be-
fore adjournment tomorrow night. All
day long the leaders were counting noses
and preparing for the final struggle to-
morrow.
The Democrats are badly split on the
bill. The opponents of the bill occupied
most of the time of the debate to-day, the
feature being a vigorous speech by Mr.
Cushman CRep., Washington against the
measure. Mr.. Cushman arraigned the COM
mittee on rules and the House leaders in
a breezy and at times sensat tional fashion.
A portion of his criticism was in a semi
humorous vein, but some of it was de-
cdedly caustic. Mr.. De Almond. one Of
the leading Democrats Of the House. de-
Iivered a forcible speech in favor of tariff
reduction on trust articles The other
speakers were Messrs. Pierce of Texas,
Douglass of New York and Lacey of Iowa
for the bill and Messrs. Jenkins of Wis
cOnsin, Gaines of West Virginia, Warner
of Illinois, Gardner of Michigan, Jones of
Washington and Loud of California
against 1t.
MT. EOuU declared lEdl ulTeCllN and in
directly Cuba already had cost the United
States one thousand million dollars.
Mr.. De Almond employed his vitriolic
comment upon the attitude of memb bers
with his accustomed freedom. Calling at
tention 10 the fact that members on both
sides. whether they opposed or advocated
the measure justified their course by an
appeal to their party principles he re
marked that. viewed from these diverse
standpointS, the mea sure was indeed a re-
markable departure in legislation He
commented upon the statement of Genera
GrosvenOr a few days ago that. later. the
high rates OF the Dingley law would be re-
duced and revised by the friends OF that
act If the rates were too high he saw
no reason why the reduction should not
occur now. and I'm this connection referred
sarcastcally 10 the Babcock bill to place
steel on the free list. It's author had voted
against the bill in committee and he in
tirnated broadly that the purpose of its in
PRODUCTION was 10 hold UP the steel trust
and other kindred trusts for the benefit of

that, 10 hear members talk, one would

torture in all the instances mentioned had
been conducted by the regular soldiers. and
that they had not been participated in by

said, ito treat the natives kindly, and so
far as I observed the soldiers generally 50

Mr.. Davis said he had been i'm charge of

that its administration was not OF rare
