NEW YORK, April 26.-The National
league executive committee completed its
first regular session at the Fifth Avenue
hotel tonight. The members declined to
make public their plans for conducting the
fight against the American league, but that
a definite plan of action has been adopted
and that II will be thoroughly carried out
the committee left no room to doubt.
There is no use In denying that we
wert over the matter thoroughly" said
James A. Hart today, but to make public
what the outcome has been would be fur
nishing our enemies with our ammuni-
ton"
Mr.. Hart admitted. however, that the
National league would follow up the vic
tory gained In the Pennsylvania supreme
court in the Lajoie case.
How much of a fund has been raised by
the league to conduct its fight could not be
learned. This fund was originally placed
at 100000, each club agreeing to give So, 500.
Charles y. Powers OF Pittsburg was

While the prospects for a full yield OF

RUssIR on THE TRUSTS.

ton of an international conference. It
PREVENTION of this character by the gov
eminent in the conditions of industry
was obnoxious to the interests of in
ternational trade or commerce, that
proved disturbance to the free action
of international competition, the Rus
sian government would readily enter,
Jointly with the other powers, into a
discussion Of the various measures that
could be conducive in checking the sew
eral means of influencing international
markets.
The note adds, however, that the st.
Petersburg government would not be
inclined to consider an agreement on
this point unless the question should be
put in such way as to cover the whole
of its scope, that is to say, if there were
undertaken an examination not only of
the results of the direct measures by
the goVernment-such as the creation
of bounties or the control of the pro-
ductiOn-but also the essence of vari-
Gus syndicates (trusts) tolerated and
protected by the government and I'M
less the general convention should have
for its object not only sugar, but also
other leading staples of the interna-
tional trade of the present day. Then
follows the statement that in taking
the position above explained the gov
eminent of Russia hopes that the for
etgn governments will make no diff
Guilty in taking it as an expression of
its full consent to participate in any
joint action of the powers which would
aim to protect international prices
against artificial falls in regard to su-
gar as well as other merchandise.
This is no proposal for an interna-
tional inquiry into the working of the
trusts. 1t is merely incidental to the
general position which Russia consid-
ers that she occupies in the sugar mar
ket. The war on the trusts will have
to be locally confined to the United
States, and some growing from Great
Britain. The international attack upon
trusts has yet to be organized, and
Russia does not propose to be leader
in this attack.
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1902-08-19

There has been some considerable
comment with regard to Russia and
the trusts and paragraphs have been
running through the papers relative to
a note issued to those powers which
signed the Brussels sugar convention
1t was supposed to be an invitation to
an international conference on trusts.
Seeing that the question of trusts is
one which is alarming all the world
and is one to which especial attention
is being given in the United States,
where it forms portion of every po
Htical platform, this statement of Rus
sia's attitude very naturally called
forth the very liveIiest interest.
more thorough knowledge of what
Russia really did say has done away
preach an international commercial
war on trusts, What Russia reall!
meant by her note, which, by the way
was not addressed to the United States
was not a general convention agains
trusts, but was an exposition Of her at
titude in relation to the Brussels Suga
Convention, and was addressed to tht
governments which signed that con
vention and to which the United States
was not signatory party. The gist
of the note is that Russia will be I'M
willing to accept any International
agreement on the sugar question unless
it should be included in a general ar
rangement for checking the several
means of influencing the international
markets.
In brief, as Bradsueets points out,
the Russian government takes the posi-
ton in it's note that it cannot bring
itself to regard the provisions of the
Brussels Convention in relation to the
countries granting export bounties as
applicable to itself. This is in line with
the contention of NJ de Witte in his
controversy with, Secretary Gage last
year, when, as will be remembered, he
insisted all along that Russia's regu-
lations for the production and sale of
sugar were not equivalent to an export
bounty on it. Proceeding the note sets
forth the declarations which have given
rise to the statement as to the sugges-

GETTING UNEASY.

when he thought he held the Hawaiian
electorate in the hollow of his hand, ne
Informed his hearers that he consider
ed the fire claims were swindle upon
the United States treasury, but since
the money was to go to poor Hawaiians
he thought it was all right. He was not
then cognizant Of the awards of the fire
commissioners, and this was probably
his real attitude at the time. He had
not taken much interest in the matter
and he left Washington before it was
settled. Mr.. Pratt the representative OF
the merchants, was left to do the best
he could, and he did it.
But since WilcoX's return he has rea-
lized that this question of the fire claims
is a most important one, and at Wal
luku through his secretary he has the
effrontory to say that he wanted to pass
bill in Congress for three millions of
dollars, and tries to show that his eff
forts We're spoiled by Pratt. AS fact
Pratt went forward because the dele
gate would not move, and the only eff
fort to assist the Hawaiian, Chinese
ando Japanese claimants were made
by the merchants of Honolulu, who put
up their own money in order to obtain
funds for these people.
When such a change of front is made
within few weeks, and the words of
one meeting are eaten at another, no de-
pendence can be put on any statement
brought forward. Indeed the delegate
belittles his own people by such tactics
since he shows that he has a small
appreciation of their capacity when he
thinks that any falsehood and any wild
statement will go. The future of the
delegate is not a bright one. He has
gone up like rocket but he is coming
down like a stick.
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1902-08-19

In spite of the Delegates smile, in
spite of his easy manner when question
ed and in spite of the apparently con-
fident attitude of his adherents, it is
evident that his power over his au-
diences is slipping away. He is listen
ed to. and he amuses but there is not
that wild enthusiasm about him which
marked his progress through the ISL
ands two years ago, The Hawaiian
voters who were his chief supporters no
longer regard him as the main or only
candidate He has had his chance, he
has drawn a large salary, he has done
nothing for it, The Hawaiian voter
does not see why another Hawaiian
should not have q similar chance
should not draw. the same large salary
and perhaps do something for it. To
use a homely slang phrase, the present
delegate is by no means the only pei BILE
on the beach. ...s,
The delegate and his party are using
the same tactics lin their speeches,
which have been used for so long. 1t
is a campaign of venom and wind.
There are the same colored statements,
the same inuendoes and the same
shameless disregard for either truth or
logic. It seems almost hopeless to try
and refute what wilcox and his bench
men say. The clear thinking man sees
through it and simply let's the stuff
trickle past the ear But the man who
does not think may be dazzled by the
falsehoods. On the stage counterfeit
jewelry often looks better than the real
article, and makes a better show
1t does not seem possible that the
delegate should have in so short time
made the change of front that he has
done upon the fire claims matter I'm

ington in a speech before his full forces

THE BOXERS ON DECK.

The Boxers have started in to amuse
themselves in certain portions of Chi
ma and have incidentally murdered a
few Chinese Christians, just to show
that they are alive and well, or as Kip
ling said Of the Dacoits, just by way
of keeping their end up. There are two
things about the present Boxer move
ment which are significant The Box
ers or anu-Christians have refrained
from numbering foreigners, but have
confined themselves to the slaughter of
native Christians. They are not likely
to be seriously interfered with by the
powers if their energies are kept down
to this. The second point is that tale
is being spread that the Christian for
eigners have melted Christian Chinese
to commit these murders in order to
bring the Chinese as a nation into dis
repute
1t is curious how history repeats it,
self. As far back as the time of Nero
