CUBANs DISCUSS TREATY.
Business Men on the Island Generally
Approve It.

A dispatch from Havana yesterday SAYS:
The senate committee on foreign affairs
which has been holding conferences on the
reciprocity treaty with representatives Of
different economic societies, brought its
hearings to C. close today. Representatives
Of many industries, including petroleum
and suge.r reflners. lithogra piers and manu-
facturers OF rope, beer and chocolate have
been heard. They all approved the treaty,
but urged that home industries be pro-
tected.
p Seniors GAMBIA and Rodriguez represent
ing the Merchants Union, were asked If
they thought the treaty would divert the
greater part of Cuban trade to American
channels They said that unless the Amer
leans adopted different business methods
and tried to suit the tastes of Cuban mer-
chants the increase in trade would not be
over 20 per cent, and that the best they
could expect with new methods would be
30 per cent. Seniors GAMBIA and Rodriguez
said they thought there would not be much
falling of in Cuba's trade with Europe.
1t is estimated that the treaty will de-
crease Cuba's customs receipts by about
100000 a year. The government has as
sured tho Merchants Union that under the
new tariff ample protection will be given to
homo industries. It H. believed here that
the committee on foreign affairs will un-
doubtedly report in favor Of accepting the
treaty, and that It Will be approved by both
houses.

THREE KILLED IN WRECK.
Disastrous Accident on Pennsylvania
Road at Ada, Ohio.

A dispatch from Ada Ohio, last night
says: Three men dead and fourteen or
more other persons injured, one fatally, IS
the result of a collision between two trains
on the Pennsylvania system on the main
street of this city at o'clock this even
ing.
The dead-Joseph Stein. Fort Wayne: -
McPhool, Fort Wayne. Ind: Alonzo Had
ley, Van Vert, Ohio.
The injured-W. A. Freese, Chicago, H.:
]. J. Casey, Toledo, cannot recover; Mr..
and Mrs. Durselman and little daughter of
Van Vert; Peter Tracey, conductor of
train No. So; Curtis McElroy, Ada: Andrew
Brunnon, Fort Wayne, Ind; NJ Geise, OF
tawa; Walter Klingerk. Ada: w. ID. Black
burn, baggagemaster of No. 80; Guy Kings
burg, editor of the Dunkirk Standard; Ben
jamin Cooke. Fort Wayne; 7. J. Burdette,
Dayton.
This accident was one of the worst that
ever occurred on this division of the Penn
sylvania system and was highly sensa-
tional in all its details, occurring as it did
on the main street Of the town at a time
when the thoroughfare was crowded with
people. Train No. 80, westbound, for Fort
Wayne, had started out Of the station but
at the Main street crossing was compelled
to stop on account of some accident TO the
air brakes. A fiagman was sent back TO
notify No. 10, freight which was going in
the same direction, and which was several
minutes late.
OWING 10 tue III the tiiSiiIe'i VI
No 10 was unable to see the signal in time
to slacken his speed. His engine crashed
into the rear of No. 30. No. 30 consisted OF
two coaches, the rear one being a combina-
ton baggage and passenger car, with an
other passenger car I'm front. Both were
telescoped, and scarcely passenger es-
capped injury of some sort. The engineer
and fireman of No. 10 were also Slightly
hurt but not enough to prevent them from
rendering immediate assistance to those
who were in greater distress
The scene about the wreck was frightful-
Many people were congregated about tho
spot at the time. and the street was wei
filled with wayfarers on their way home
from work The crash was heard all over
the city, and almost the entire population
was soon on hand to render what assist
ance they could IN caring for the wounded
and dead, who were at once carried 10 the
freight house and station and laid in the
house on improvised cots Nest of the in
jured seemed to be hurt about the head,
and their blood -smeared vsages and cries
OF agony as they were being conveyed to
their temporary resting places added hor-
ror to such scene as had never before
been encountered In Ada.

GUIDES BRUTALLY MURDERED.
Testimony in the Trial of Major Glenn
at Manila,

A dispatch from Manila yesterday says:
At the continuation today of the trial by
court-martial of Maj. Edwin F. Glenn of
the 9TH Infantry. who is charged with ur-
lawfully and willfuliy killing seven pris-
oners of war in Samar last January, Louis
Caulfield, second lieutenant in the Philip
pine scouts, who was in command of tie
detachment which killed the native guides
in question. testified that while Nal. Glenn
directed that the guides be executed if they
failed to lead the column to the enemy, he,
Lieut.. Caulfeld. did not repeat Maj. Glenn S
orders to the detachment. He said he gave
no orders for the killing of the guides him.
self and that their killing did not result
from orders issued by Maj. Glenn.
The witness testified that he did not see
the killing. He said that Preston and Ra-
mos, civilian scouts, reported to him that
the guides had been killed while trying TO
escape, and that he SO reported to Maj.
Glenn when he returned to Caybayeg.
Lieut.. Caulfield explained that the detach-
ment had been divided: that he was in COM
mand of one part and that Ramos COM
manded the other. Ramos reported the
killing of four of the guides when he re-
Joined the witness. The remaining three
guides were killed after the main column
had started Lieut.. Caulfield was in the
lead, and did not see this incident. Pres
ton was in charge of the rear guard at the
time and reported the killing of the three
guides, telling him the men had made
break for liberty.
A native sergeant who accompanied The
detachment under Ramos testified that the
first four guides had been executed by or
der of Ramos because they failed to guide
the column to the enemy. This witness
said the guides had been given chance to
lead the column, and when they refused to
do so they were made to kneei and advised
to repent of their sins The sergeant then
said that a native soldier was stationed
behind each kneeling man. and that at the
word of command the soldiers first dubbed
the guides with their rifle butts and then
bayonetted them. The witness declared
that Lieut.. Caulfield was not present at
this execution.
The prosecution is endeavoring to con-
meet Maj. Glenn with the killing of the
guides by trying to show that Ramos was
present when Maj. Glenn gave his orders
to Lieut.. Caulfield. The defense denies
that Ramos was present on this occasion.
A dispatch from New York yesterday
says: Maj. Gen. Adna K. Chaffee made
denial today Of the cable report that any
act, order or instruction of his while in
the Philippines could be construed into an
authorization of the application of the
water cure for the purpose of extracting
information from natives. Gen. Chaffee
made this statement when his attention was
called to a dispatch from Manila, giving an
account of the court-martial of Maj Glenn
of the 9Th Infantry.

WILL ACCEPT CARNEGIE,S OFFER.
Philadelphia is to Have Thirty Branch
Library Buildings.

dispatch from Philadelphia says: An
drew Carnegie's profrered $500 900 for the
erection Of thirty public libraries in this
city Is to be accepted.
Though at first there was some show Of
reluctance among those who will be called
upon to accept or reject the Offer they are
now DESTROYS Of taking advantage of it
and highly praise Mr.. Carnegie's munif1cent
proposal to Philadelphia and his offers of
100000 to Camden and $4,000 to Wash
ington.
Should the wealthy citizens of Philadel-
pha fail to donate tracts on which the
Libraries may be built councils, it is said
will themselves secure the land. In such a
case, of course, all the sites will not have
to be purchased at once, so 1t is believed
the city can stand the expense without suf-
fering any undue hardship.

commerce Of france amounted to 11,51O,-
OOO, 900 francs G2, POI ,43O.O 00), this being an
Increase over the preceding year OF $500
900. During the same year the total foreign
commerce Of all the French colonies
amounted to $193. OS6.S5O. of which s1s4, S94.-
900 represented the movement with France.
OF this total colonial commerce the part OF
Marseilles was 97,2I2,OOO. or 81 per cent,
the results fer the year showing slight
increase for this city, as compared with
preceding years. To large extent the
impulse which the colonies receive from the
parent country is derived from Marseilles,
and Marseilles capital is employed largely
In the exploitation Of the colonies and al
most entirely controls the means of comnu-
nication by sea.
On the West African Coast.
OF all the French colonies, Algeria and
Tunis excepted, those which interest Mar
settles most directly are those of the west
coast senegal, Guinea, Ivory Coast and
Dahomey), 1t is here that the most re-
markable progress has been made. 1t Is
by comparing the results achieved in these
colonies with those obtained in the British
West African colonies that French colonial
students satisfy themselves Of their own
success. The comparison Is interesting
The commerce Of the four British West
African colonies amounted In 1899 to ST.
9S5, coo and in 1900 to $50, 689, 900; the COM
merce of the four French West African
colonies amounted in 1899 to $26, O55, 900 and
in 1900 to $2S950,O0O.
The French West African domain has
been constituted, little by little, of small
territories, comprising four or five colonies,
having between them no cohesion and each
one administered in a different fashion. 1t
is the same situation that once existed in
the four French colonies which have now
been united under the name Of Indo China
This federation has given most satisfactory
results and it is now the policy of the
French government, progressively but with
prudence, to form West African union
composed of Senegal, Guinea, Ivory Coast
and Dahomey. A governor general has been
named, having under his direction lieuten-
ant governor in each Of the colonies.
Assault Upon Asia.
'"The division of the black continent be-
ing contaminated, the strong nations, fore
seeing the future, prepare Tor the assault
upon ASIA" says recent report of the
Marseilles chamber Of commerce. France,
after Russia and England. is the greatest
European power in Asia, and has the great
est interest at stake. In this part of the
world the annual commerce Of Great Bri-
tain with all of the Asiatic countries other
900, sum equaled by the commerce Of
France with all the regions Of Asia other
than the French colonies The rapid prog
ress Of the 1ndo-Chinese colony Is pointed
out proof Of the French capacity to
administer. The total commerce of British
India is put down at 5000 800 600; the total
commerce of French Indo China is eStimat-
ed at $71,796,O00. These latter figures have
increased IS per cent in four years The
colony has now been controlled twenty
years by France, and the future is consid
cred most ENCOURAGING
