sTEERAGE PASSENGERS.
Immigrants For America Are Looke'

| Upon ~ Cargo.
One of the biggest liners sailing out
OF France, with 500 Storage passen-
| gers aboard, was selected for observing
the manner Of handling Storage pas
sengers bound for America.
A firm conclusion reached after the
experience Of that trip is that an immi-
grant Of this class has to put up with
much unnecessarily unpleasant treat
ment-tirst, simply because lie is an
immigrant and therefore in judgment

ing what he is, he has not yet learned
to protect himself. The picture con-

Oil of Rattlesnakes.

In Pennsylvania the oil of rattle
snakes is preserved most carefully as a
liniment especially good for sore joints
and for rheumatism. In procuring the
oil the dead snake is nailed head and

is taken out and laid upon cloth in
the hot sun, from which the filtered oil
drips into a jar. From fear that the
reptile may have bitten itself the clear

HUMPHREYS DEFEAT 1.-THE FRIAR'S LANDS
LAST NIGHTS CAMPAIGN IN THE
THIRD PRECINCT.
Candidacy of the Circuit Judge For the
Precinct Presidency Brings Out Big
Vote For Robinson.

The name of A. S. Humphreys, as a
candidate for the presidency of the Re-
publican precinct club of the third pre-
cincttof the Fourth district, hai a ma
gic effect last night in the election.
When the nominations were made two
weeks ago there were only Is people at
the meeting. Last night 1l6 voters
turned out and 104 of them voted
against Humphreys
The candidacy of the circuit Judge
lent interest to an election that other
wise attracted little attention. Hum
phreys was nominated by H. NJ. Saun-
ders, at the meeting held two weeks
ago, and at the same meeting Humph-
rsys nominated Saunders for Vice-pres-
ident. Saunders was among those
elect ed last night.
AS soon as the voting began ii was
evident that there was a lively cam
paign on. Voters began to turn out as
they have never turned out at a pri-
mary in Honolulu before. The Nev.
Serene Bishop was observed edging his
way to the polls to cast a vote against
the circuit Judge and other well known
citizens who usually leave primary po-
litics to more active politicians, follow
ed suit.
Early in the evening Humphreys
visited the polling place. He was OBJ
served to cast a vote for Mark Robin
son. The judge remained about the
polling place during most of the voting
He declares however, that he was not
an active candidate, and that his posi-
ton as a judge prevented him from
lnaking any fight for the presidency of
the club.
j. M. ViVas, who was referred to as
a Portuguese leader who was supposed
to round up a lot of votes for Hum
phreys, says that he was not in the
fight and has moved out of the precinct
There are only II Portuguese voters in
the precinct, according to Vivas, and
the Portuguese element is therefore not
important
The sentiments aroused by Humph-
reys' recent remarks regarding the CO.
ronatiOn are said to have had some
thing to do with the extraordinary vote
against him. Many of his former
friends took ofense at his volunteer re-
marks on this subject, and helped to
roll up the vote of 40 to 8 agaihsi
him.

VATICAN PRACTICALLY ACCEPTS
AMERICAN TERMS.
United States To Pay 81 10000 For
the Lands-Friars To BE Deportej
Some Minor Points

ROME, June 2O.-The Papal Secre-
tary of State, Cardinal Rampolla to-
day assured Right Rev Thomas
O'Gorman, Bishop of Sioux Falls, ). D.,
that the Vatican accepts the PROPOSE
ton of Judge Taft, Governor of the
philippines, regarding the disposition
of the friars' lands on all the main
points, but dissents on minor points.
The American party waited patiently
at the Eote. Quirinal for the reply, but
as this dispatch is forwarded it was
still not received. There is little doubt
that the answer will be a substantial
acceptance of the main points of Judge
Tafts proposals, which include the
payment of about 81 900, 600 for the
friars lands and a smaller sum for the
rental of the friars lands used by the
Army and the deportation of the fri
ars to Spain. The actual sums Will be
fixed by arbitration Judge Taft has
prepared a tentative form OF agree .
nent to use if agreeable to the Nati-
can.
If the answer does not come tonight
Judge Taft tomorrow will apply to
Mgr. Gasspari. secretary of the Con-
gregdtiOn Extraordinary on EcclesIas s.
teal Affairs, for information on he
subject.

AN ISTHMIAN CANAL CAUGHT IN ICE FLOE
STEAMER PORTLAND CARRIED
INTO THE ARCTIC.
Her Fate Is Still Unknown-Bad over
100 Passengers Aboard Drifting
Three Miles an Hour. 49,

SEATTLE CWash), June 20.-The
famous gold steamer Portland, owned
by the Alaskan Commercial Company
Of San Francisco, was caught by i'm
mense ice floes in Behring strait June
4th, and, with her passengers and car
go, was being carried into the Arctic
ocean when last seen.
On the Portland were over 100 pas
sengers, many Of them prominent
Nome operators. Forty-slx of the un-
fortunate people were booked from
San Francisco.
Passengers on the steamer Nome
City, which arrived from the geld camp
tonight, state that the Portland was
apparently intact, although locked fast
in the jaws of an immense ice jam.
She was moving along into the Arctic
ocean in a northerly direction at the
rate of about three miles an hour.
The revenue cutter Thetis was i'm
mediately dispatched tC the rescue, hut
il is not known whether she was able
to be of any assistance to the impris
oned steamer and her passengers.
The probable fate of the Portland is
mere conjecture. She may pull through
all right although it is acknowledged
that she is in a very dangerous posi-
ton. Should the ice break up in a
Tough sea there is no telling what will
happen. The Thetis might not be able
to reach the imprisoned people. Stanch
az the Portland is with her iron
sheathins. the force of grinding ice il
something terrible.
| The Nome City herself was caught in
4 ice, but by good luck she got behind
an island and was thus able to escape
! from being carried into the Arctic.

POLITICAL WATERLOO
CARTER HARRISON DONE UP BY
HOPKINS.
Defeated In the State Convention and
His Presidential Ambitions Are Said
TO Have Gone Aglimmerlng.

CHICAGO, June 17.-OvershaduwinE
i'm State interest its total elimination of
the silver issue in the platform anu it's
failure to mention even once the name
of Bryan, was the action of Ihe rem
Ocratic State Convention today in rul-
ing Mayor Harrison out Of state poll
tics and disposing of hin as Presi-
dental or Vice Presidential possibility.
The latter result was accomplished
when the convention, over the Nigo Gus
opposition of Harrison, elected former
Mayor John =. Hopkins member at
large of the State Committee by the
decisive vote of 72S1a to 5231a, and af-
terward the new State Committee. by
a vote of 13 to 10, re elected Hopkins
chairman of the State Committee.
On the vote for member at large even
the Cook county delegation, which was
supposed to be by a large majority at
the beck of Harrison, showed a ma
jOrity of only forty three against E'op-
liins. Mayor Harrison came here eN-
pressly, by his own admission, to hu-
initiate Hopkins and keep him off the
state Committee. HIS utter failure to
do so means that his influence in poll
ties is now limited to precinct and
ward lines. and that even here his pow
er is on the wane.

THAI JAP ''INVASION''
SAN FRANCISCO PAPERS STILL
WORRIED.
The "a Which Were The Advance
Guard of the Hordes" From Hawaii
Still Rankle

SAN FRANCISCO, June 1S.-Hart H.
North, United States Comhmissioner
of immigration, when interviewed yes
terday in regard to the recent influx of
Japanese from Hawaii, explained that
there was no law at present to prevent
the immigration of Japanese from the
Hawaiian Islands.
''At the time of the annexation of the
islands," said Commissioner North, lit
was only by special amendment to the
act that Chinese were denied the privi-
lege of coming into this country, while
no provision was Made aghinstJapanese
1t is true that ever since the anneXa-
ton of the islands there has been a
constantly increi sing immigration of
Japanese coolies from treTe into the
United States, but there is now way to
stop it except by special legislation; the
japanese coolies from there into the
Vileges as all other citizens. If it were
brought under contract, in violation of
the immigration laws, from Japan to
the Hawaiian Islands, they might pro-
perly be stopped there, but coming from
the islands into this country they are
not within the jurisdiction of the COM
missioner of immigration here.
1.-The census report of 1900 showed the
Japanese population of the Hawaiian
Islands to be Ill, and according IL
the Federal Constitution the citizens OF
all States or Territories have equal pri-
vileges of exit or ingress, consequently
the Japanese of Hawaii are as free tc
come into California as If they came
from Nevada or any other state. SO
waving the question whether or not
they are a menace to the industrial pro-
gress of the State, their immigration is
not at present in violation of any law

PANAMA ROUTE CONSIDERED
MOST DESIRABLE.
Final Issue May Be Left To The
President BY the Spooner Substitute
Bill.

WASHINGTON, June 19.-An 18TH
mian canal, while not yet absolutely as
sured is nearer to construction than it
has ever been. The Senate today by a
majority Of eight votes adopted the
SpoOner substitute for the Hepburn Nj
caragua canal bill, the vote on the sub
stitute being AZ to "a. After two amend
ments to the measure had been made,
one providing for a commission to sup
ervise the construction of the canal and
the other providing for the issuance of
$3.50, ,000,0 900 of two per cent gold bonds
to raise money with which to construct
the waterway, it was passed by a vote
of 67 to 6.
1t has been evident for several days
that the Spooner substitute, which in
brief provides that the President shall
select the Panama route If he can OBJ
tain a clear title to the Panama Canal
Company's property, but otherwise he
shall adopt the Nicaragua route, would
command the votes of a majority of the
Senate. The Panama route was con-
sidered more desirable by the Senate
than the Nicaragua route. The only
question left open is the title to the
property, and that the President will
determine if the House should adopt
the Senate's amendments to it's bill.
Morgan of Alabama closed today's
debate with an earnest appeal for the
adoption of the Nicaragua route. He
had been preceded by Clark of Mon
tana in support of the Nicaragua GU o
and Allison of Iowa in support of the
Spooner proposition. Only minor

were aopted. all others being voted
