Detroit Conference.

DETROIT, Mich. May 29.-The question
of state supervision of charities as well as
public. was discussed at the first session Of
the National Conference of Charities and
Correction which is in session I'm this city.
Jeffrey r. Bracket. Of Baltimore. read the
report OF the committee which has been in
vestigating the question. The committee
agreed that the State shoul exercise some
sort OF supervision over private institu-
tons as we'll as public, but disagreed as TO
the way this should be done. Mr.. Bracket
and those who signed the committee report
with him favored a state board OF super
vision only while several members who did
not sign the report favored a board OF con-
troll which should have administrative func-
tons as well. over all charitable institu-
tons.
II. II. Hart. OF Illinois. In his paper on
HAS the State "A Right 10 Supervise Pri-
Vate Charities and 10 What Extent and by
What Means" contended that the State

MANILA, May 29.-Col. Frank D. Bald
has telegraphed to Brig. Gen. George w.
Davis, in command of the United States
troops in the Island of Mindanao, that he
does not expect to establish satisfactory
peace conditions in the Lake Lano dis
trict until the defiant element is wiped
out. The natives pretending to be friendly
are urging that this be done. as their own
lives are in jeopardy, which" the colonel
says, 1--WE in the highest sense under
obligations to protect. The defiant ele-
ment," continues Colonel Baldwin, ''re-
spect nothing but power and the sword.
They will destroy humans until destroyed
themselves" General Davis replied that
to meet the emergency in the way sug-
gested by Colonel Baldwin would neces-
state the capture Of every Moro fort
which now admits American soldiers as
friends, and that such action the part
OF the American forces is forbidden by ex-
listing orders.
The labor troubles which have been
brewing for a month are now on the eve of
coming to head. Three of the largest
American employers of Filipino labor have
been notified that they must advance SAL
aries so per cent. all round May 81 or face
a strike One firm three years ago paid it's
employees So per week and is now paying
them $50 weekly The firm says a further
advance is impossible. 1t is the intention
of Isabelos de Losreys. the organizer of Ia
Dor associations here, to secure an increase
in wages in all trades or force a general
strike. The merchants are alarmed at the
outlook. They say Filipino labor costs
more now in proportion TO the results than
American labor. The wages now are from
five TO ten times higher than under the
Spanish regime.
Arrangements are being made for the
removal of the military forces from sew
eral places in the department of the north
Philippines.

story of His Trip.

FORT DE FRANCE, Martinique, May %.
The crater of Mont Pelee has been ap-
preached within one mile This feat was
accomplished on Tuesday afternoon by
George ]. Kavanagh, an unattached news
paper man, who had accompanied Prof.
Robert T. HILL the United States govern
ment geologist, his expedition. When
Professor Hill turned south toward st.
Pierre Mr.. Cavanagh continued on past
Morne Rogue. His route seems TO have
been along or near the Gale Basse divide.
He says he descended from Morne Rogue
into the valley between Morne Rogue and
Mont Pelee. This valley was deeply strewn
with ashes. Mr.. Kavanagh was guided by
an aged negress to where an old foot path
led to Lake Palmiste, near the summit OF
the crater. There an iron cross twenty feet
high was buried in ashes to within foot
of its top. Before him stretched upward
the mountain slope, covered with ashes,
which. soaked by the heavy rains ana
baked by the and volcano heat. looked
like a cement sidewalk. The whole noun
tain top was shrouded in smoke.
Forgetful of the explosion of the previous
night and the awful suddenness of the out
bursts, and tempted by the seemingly easy
ascent, he continued upward and made
photographs and rough sketches. Mr.. Kav-
anagh found the valley filled with ashes
and two great riffs, which he was afraid
to approach. At in the evening he turned
back, reaching Morne Rogue about .
o'clock. He had made no new observations
and realized his danger only the next
morning, when occurred the greatest out
burst since Mont Pelee's first eruption.
On Wednesday Mr.. Kavanagh tried to
descend to st. Pierre, but failed. He found
a little hamlet in a valley near the noun
tain black with $50 dead bodies They were
not carbonized, nor had their clothing been
burned off Probably this valley lay near
the inner edge of the zone of blasting
flame.

might feel little disappointed that their effort to di-

in the scramble of organizing it is not likely that the
