that ony few cases of friction between

FIIlpinOs Want Relief

Tariff reductions for Philippines su'
gar is now sought by the inhabitants OF
the Island of Negros.
Acting Secretary of War Sanger has
transmitted to Congress message
which points out that unless relief be
granted the people of Negros will be,
hopelessly ruined and starvation and
disease will stalk among them. There
is no desire on the part of the Admin
lstration to complicate the project tor
Cuban relief bv urging immediate action
IN behalf of the Philippines AT the
same time, the message showed the
prevalence Of such great distress that he
deemed it desirable to lay it before Con-
gress. The message is from the Presi.
dent of the Assembly of Presidents OF
Negros. Disease among men and beasts,
torrential rains, scarcity of labor, expen-
;ive transportation, the low price OF SUI
gar and the high price of other articles
of prime necessity, are a few of the
causes advanced for a tariff reduction on
Philippines sugar The island desires
that this reduction be at least rs per
cent.

Mr.. McCumber On. D., chairman of
The Committee on Manufactures, ad-
dressed the Senate on the bill "To pre-
vent the adulteration, misbranding and
limitations of foods, beverages, candies,
drugs and condiments in the District Of
Columbia and the territories.
He declared that the extent of the
adulteration and misbranding of food
products was appalling The laws, he
said, severely punished the stamping of
lead as money That was counterfeit
ing, and the man who should advocate
the repeal of the law against counter
feiting of money would be regarded as
insane. Yet dust or mud was stamped
as flour and glucose as honey. The
one wrong was no. greater than the
other.
The amount of deleterious food pro-
ducts placed upon the market each year
Mr.. McCumber said, was valued at fully
$LI7oooo 900, while the total amount OF
adulterated food products each year was
nearly $4,000, 100000.

extends an entire block. Twelve hun
dred persons were at work there at the
time of the accident, 90 percent of whom
were girls ranging in age from IL years
upward.
The trouble began on the fourth floor
Baccus, who was janitor of the building,
started for the fifth floor for a ball of
twine. The elevator was at the top of
the shaft and Baccus pulled the rope to
bring it down. He opened the door lead
ing to the shaft and leaned forward to-
see where the carriage was. AS he did so

tainted while others, not being able to
control their feelings, cried:

there were hundreds of girls scrambling

turned in, but before the engines could
reach the scene several of the girls had
rushed to the windows and jumped to the
street. a distance of over so feet Helen
'Iolini, one Of those who jumped, was
almost instantly killed.
When the hremen and policemen ar

telling them that there was absolutely
no danger, but the sight of the firemer
seemed only to make the panic worse,

MILLIONS FOR COTTON MEN.
s7S,OOO,OOO Increase on Crop Since Last
September

New York (SpeciaD 1t is estimated
that $7s,ooo,ooo has been added to the
value of cotton grown in the United
States since September last as result Of
the steady advance in prices, covering a
period of five months The total value Of
the crop this year is estimated at $685..
100000, on the basis of production Of
100000 bales
By leaps and bounds the price of cot
ton has risen 2H cents pound in the
Southern markets since last October,
when estimates of the growing crops
were first put forth. This means sheer
increase of $ro25 bale. The growers,
of course, will not receive the full bene-
fit of this advance, but advices from the
South indicate that cotton has been
closely held, and it is believed that for
each bale sold the planters will receive
an average of $3.50 in excess of the
prices which prevailed last fall, or $751;
100000 more for the crop of Goooc,ooo
bales than had been anticipated.
