CA BRADO
Or New Sc Cigar.

To obtain the maximum quality
for the minimum price is no doubt
a question: the solution of which
interests the discriminating cigar
smoker,as much as any other item
of his expenditure. In calling
your attention to our "Cabrados"
Cigar we have endeavored to solve
this problem for you.
The Cabrados are made Of the
broken leaves of Havana tobacco
of the same quality as the more
perfect leaves, but which can be
bought for considerably less
money The manufacturers are
compelled to buy these from
the Cuban planters, and cannot
use them in the manufacture
of high price cigars. Consequent
ly they utilize this material for
cigar which costs the smoker
5 cents each, and enables him to
obtain an enjoyable smoke, which
will at times take the place of
an expensive cigar. For sale by

"OPEN DOOR IN PHILIPPINES.
Why the Secretary of War is Opposed
to RecinrOcifN.

There is authority for the statement that
Secretary Root is strongly opposed to COM
mercfal reciprocity between the United
States and the Philippines on the general
ground that any such arrangement would
be destructive of the open door policy
of this government in the east. 1t is ar
gued that the United States secured the
open door in China only after patient and
assiduous diplomatic negotiations with
other foreign governments concerned. and
that now to deny to other governments
the same trade facilities with the Philip
pines enjoyed by the United States would
result in closing the principal markets in
China to the United States.
Speaking on this subject, cabinet Of
ficer said that the only way the United
States could expect to be treated the same
as Russia, France. Germany and Great
Britain in the Chinese provinces now I'm
the virtual possessions of these govern
ments would be by granting the countries
named equal privileges and facilities with
the United States for trade with the Phil
ippines.
The above statements represent the posi-
ton Of Secretary Root on the general aues-
tfon of trade relations with the Philippines
and the conclusion is natural that Presi-
dent Roosevelt holds similar views

train, which proved to be an extra, was on

toward Chattanooga.
A mile north of Reeves, while going at a

EXCLUSION OF CHINESE.
Hearings Given by the Joint Congress
siOnal Committee.


siOnal Committee.
There was session Yesterday of the spe-
cial committee of western senators and
representatives in Congress engaged In the
consideration of Chinese legislation. Mr..
Newlands of Nevada acted as chairman.
The meeting was held, for the purpose of
hearing arguments on the subject from
Messrs Livernash, Beale and Furusetn,
representing the California commission now
here, and Mr.. Gustadt and other represen-
tatives of the Federation of Labor. The
members of these two bodies had prepared
an exclusion bill which they believed would
form the basis of legislation satisfactory to
the interests they represent, and it fol med
the feature of the discussion by the Con-
gressmen and their visitors. This oil! &C.
enacts specifically various exclusion laws
now in force and adds certain provisions
designed to prevent the migration of the
Chinese between the United States and its
insular possessions or vice versa. Its pro-
visions are described as liberal in The treat
ment of what is known as the exempt
classes, including merchants, students
travellers and officials The purpose in
view, the speakers declared, was to prevent
the industrial competition of the Chinese AS
laborers. Their wish was to promote COM
mercial relations with the Chinese and not
to harass any of those who had a right to
be here. The measure also had other feat
ures designed to secure the proper and GER
tain administration of the exclusion acts
and otherwise strengthen the hands of the
Treasury Department in the enforcement OF
the law. Mr. Dunn, representing he i.nDli-
grafton bureau of the Treasury Depart
ment, also was present and in answ ar to in
quiries explained the attitude of the bureau
whose desire he said was to perfect ,he ad-
ministration of the law, leaving it to Con-
gress to shape such new legislation as was
necessary to meet conditions that mad
arisen.
The special committee will meet Wedncs-
day to further consider the exclusion acts.
Meantime there will beea conference of the

tive of the Attorney Generals office, at

its unfair treatment, SO now, three decades
after the civil war, it reflects, especially in

the book treats OF incidents not typical of
