PREPARING TO
SEND LEPERS
Especial to the Advertiser. ]

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 2L-Evidently,
San Francisco expects to ship its lepers
to Hawaii. The Board of Health, at n
meeting held on Wednesday. passed a
resolution which showed this belief and
intent. Some time ago the sum Of $500
was appropriated by the Board OF Super
visors OF the city and county OF San
Francisco for the purchase of a site for
leper hospital in this county. There
are several lepers here, and they are very
poorly housed In fact, as was proved In
the case Of Pratt or Peepelow, they
could easily gain their freedom II they
desired
Hawaiians will remember that about
year and half ago, a man named Pratt
alias Peepelow, arrived in Honolulu on
the steamship China, and announced
that he was n leper and had come to
cure the diseased at the settlement on
Molokai. Pratt was examined by the
Board of Health OF Hawaii. and was de-
tanned at the quarantine station in the
harbor until he was secretly shipped
back to San Francisco. Pratt told many
and varying stories, but made IL plain
that the Board OF Health OF San Fran
cisco allowed lepers to roam about a.
pleasure. Pratt has once been an in
mate OF the leper hospital here, but had
been allowed to go in order to become an
incubus OF Hawaii, and free San Fran
cisco of his keep.
1t was about the time that Pratt went
to Honolulu from here that talk of max
ing Hawaii the dumping ground for all
lepers of the United States became act
I've. In fact, / believe that the articles
printed In the press Of the country con-
corning Pratt's mission to Hawaii caused
the subject to be given serious consid-
GRAFTON by the health authorities of the
various States. Now many of the States,
and thu big cities where there are lepers.
and especially In Louisiana and New Or
leans. the authorities expect confidential
| ly to rid themselves of their lepers by
dispatching them to Molokai.
| They believe that the Wilcox bill. pro-
vdIng for the transfer OF the Molokai
leper colony and all lepers in the country
to the jurisdiction of the United States.
will pass at this session, and It Is for
this reason that the Board OF Health of
San Francisco has now asked the Super
visors to delay purchasing any site for n
pest house. or leper hospital, until final
action IL taken on the Wilcox bill.
Hawaiians may look for small sympa-
| thy from the States In the Territory s
opposition to making Molokai vast
leper colony, and taking its management
away from the Island government. The
average citizen OF the mainland has n
poor appreciation VI 'he ieehhsS VI ~"
waiians in this matter. and thinks that
the plan OF putting a few hundred lepers
more on Molokai should not be combat
ted by the people of Hawaii. The people
of the United States do not realize tina,
Hawaii Is making every effort to STAMP
out the frghtful disease which has more
than anything else given the Islands q
black eye, and seem to think that the

VAN DER VELDE
GOT FIVE DAYS
(From Wednesdays daily)

The San Francisco Chronicle says:
EX- Lieutenant l.. a. Van der Nelde OF
the Dutch navy. was yesterday SEN
fenced by Judge Cabaniss to five days
Imprisonment on the charge of petty
larceny. to which he had pleaded gull
ty nearly two weeks ago. After re-
signing from the navy the defendant
had gone to Honolulu, where he sc
cured a position as surveyor for one
OF the large sugar plantations, but his
health failing. he came to this city,
arriving here with about 500. This
money he expended on his health and
looking for work and when he took a
bicycle from in front OF the Public Ii
brary he had eaten nothing for two
days. He has wealthy relatives and
friends in Holland, but preferred to
suffer in silence rather than that they
should know his condition.
In the Islands he met naother Hol-
lander of good family, William George
de Boer, and together they came to
this city. De Boer has money in his
own right in Holland, but he is a good
liver, and mis- last remittance OF $500
marks did not cover the period until
the next Is due. so he was unable to aid
his friend. He was arrested at the
same time with Van der Nelde, but
beyond the fact that he knew his
friend was desperate and intended to
do something he was not a party To
the offense and was released.
But he has stayed by his friend dur
ing his trouble, and has daily called at
the City Prison and visited with him
during the time allotted. In addition
to this he has cabled twice, through
the Dutch Consul, Wilfrid h. Chap
man, for funds with which to pay any
possible fine that may be inflicted, but
no answer has been received. The case
has twice been continued, and yester-
day being the day fixed for sentence,
the court had no option but to impose

Spreckels to a turn. He says: "Mr.
Spreckels and the sugar trusts position
is this: They want all the duty on
Cuban raw cane sugar taken off, IL
they cannot get that they want the
duty reduced as much as possible. They
want cheap raw sugar. but not for a
minute do they want the duty on re-
fined sugar lowered. l understand the
sugar trust owns half an interest in
the Spreckels Western Sugar Refinery.
and their two beet sugar plants at
jacksonville and Salinas. Cal.
THE beet sugar men do not propose
to let Mr.. Spreckels pose as one of
them and in that role try to get free
raw sugar from Cuba. and indirectly
kill off the growing competition of beet
sugar. Unless the duty on refined sugar
benefit from the free entry of Cuban
raw cane sugar. The fact should be
remembered.
Not many months ago the sugar trust
increased the capital stock SIS, 1000, 900.
Money obtained from this source, ac-
cording to definite reports. was used to
buy up or get control of Cuban sugar
plantations. AS long ago as last spring
Mr.. Havemeyer Is known to have stat
ed that the next Congress-meaning the
one now in session-would remove the
Cuban sugar tariff so the trust has
for a year at least been actively pre-
pairing for the contemplated removal
OF that tariff.
AIDING THE TRUST.
1.-THE sentimental plea of moral
obligation this country owes Cuba is
aiding the trust in it's campaign. The
trust is taking advantage of that plea,
too. We are morally obligated to make
Cuba independent. On the other hand
we are morally obligated to look out
for our own people and affairs first.
To remove the Cuban sugar tariff will
in the long run hurt a thousand Ameri-
can farmers where 1t will benefit one
Cuban. II. as the trust says. 1t wants
to help the poor Cuban and also the
American consumer Of sugar by remov-
ing the duty on raw cane sugar from
Cuba, why not give the American pub
lie the benefit of both free raw and re-
fined sugar? Germany and China would
food the United States with refined su-
gar and wipe out the trust If the duty
on the refined article was removed
