MISS CONAN ON
CHINESE LABOR
A SAN FRANCISCO LABOR LEAD
Err BITTERLY OPPOSES BRING
ING CHINESE TO HAWAII.

SAN FRANCISCO December 24-Miss
Katherine Conan. Professor of EcOnO-
mics at Wellesley College, lectured at
the South Park Settlement last night
on labor conditions i'm Hawaii, where
she recently made extended observa-
tons For years Prof. Conan has been
connected with the labor unions Of
Boston, while a professor in New Eng
lands foremost college for young WOO
men. Her lecture last evening was
a description of the problem. She did
not offer suggestions for its solution.
Walter Macarthur the local labor
leader, led in the discussion that fol-
lowed
After reviewing the failure Of all
white and imported labor in Hawaii
Professor Conan said:
mo laborers but the Chinese and
Japanese could be relied upon to work
and stay. Today the labor is done
mostly by Japanese As wagepaid
laborers the japanese are not salts
factory. The Chinese are better labor
ers and more reliable tina nthe Japa-
nese ana so the islanders are planning
to ask Congress to admit Chinese labor
! ers as may be needed, under contract
| The plan was submitted to- the Hawai-
! ian labor unions and it is being con-
| sdered. The question is not one of
/ a question of Chinese or Japanese. The
| industrial menace Of the Chinese is the
! lesser evil
plantation laborers are paid 500 q
month with house and water and fuel
! and medical attendance free of charge.
! That is as much as the white laborers
in some parts of the United States
! receive, and the white labor is far more
! efficient Wages i'm Hawaii have risen
rapidly since the islands were annex
! ed"
Mr.. Macarthur said i'm part i'm reply:
Labor unions would about as soon
! talk of making terms with the yellow
Jack as with the yellow man. We want
neither. There is no white mans gov
eminent on earth that can cope with
the Chinese In present industrial con-
ditions, the superior man is the man
who can live the cheapest. That man
is the Chinaman.
"The Chnaman is the ideal laborer
for the islands, but if he is admitted to
Hawaii, it will not be easy to send him
back to China. He is more likely TO
come this way"
Referring to the scheme to bring the
Chinese into Hawaii under contract
Macarthur said:
eve must not make a contract slave
of even the Chinaman. We don't want
any revival of the 'blackbirdng slave
trade of the South Seas. The Ameri-
can worKingman won't stand for it,
Now what are we going to do about
supplying labor for the Plantations
The speaker concluded. What is go
ing to become of the planter? 1 don't
know and l don't care He can look
out for himself. But we are going 70
keep this a white mans country with
a white mans government"

SELF-MAIMED BEGGARS.
1t Is Not Only in Foreign Lands That
the Infamous Practice
Obtains.

1t will be remembered that Victor
Hugo's famous story, 1.-THE Man Who
Laughs" was founded on the practices
of band of miscreants in Englandwho
kidnapped little children and mutilated
them in order that they might make
more effective use of them as beggars,
the hero of the story being one of those
unfortunates. Inhuman practices of
the same kind, for the same purposes,
are said to be common at this time in
China. But according to recent re-
ports from local police courts, says
Leslie's, it is unnecessary to go into the
realm of fiction or over to the Celestial
empire to find professional beggars re-
sorting to mutilation in order to ex-
cite sympathy. A gang of these para
sites was recently discovered in Ho-
boken, n. j., every one of whom had
manned himself in some way. Some
had chopped off one or more fingers,
some had burned themselves with red
hot irons, and others had crippled their
arms or legs in various ways.
How successful these self-inficted
injuries had been as adjuncts to the
begging trade may be judged from the
fact that one of the band, who be-
trayed the others to the police for mo-
tives of revenge, declared that one man
had gathered in 1000 in four months
and another had made $500 in five
weeks. The rule seemed to be, it was
said, that the more severe the mutila-
ton the better were the returns inan-

WIRE IN THE WHITE HOUSE.
Miles of 1t Are Used'in the Extensive
Electric Light System of the
Presidential Mansion.

There are 81 miles of electric light
wire in the new white house. The sys-
tenn was tested for the first time at the
recent New Years reception, and the
brilliant interior lighting of the
building will be one of the principal
features of the occasion in the future,
says a Washington report. The in
terror of the east room Is conspicuous
for its whiteness, and the myriad of
electric lights which CLEAN forth
from every conceivable place add to
this effect in a most pleasing manner.
The electric light plant, which was
put in place by New York firm, is
one of the most modern and complete
ever installed. Three distinct systems
are run by this plant; the lighting
with 5000 electric lights, the power
supplying the ventilating fans and ele-
vators and automatic electric pumps,
and the electric bell system, including
telephones at all of the rooms. The
plant cost $4,000, and the work of in
stalling it has been in progress for
the last six months.
One of the features of the plant
which is most interesting to visitors
is the automatic electric elevator.
Although its mechanism is intricate,
even Quentin. the baby of the Roose-
welt family, does not hesitate to oper-
ate it. By simply pressing button
the elevator comes to you, the door
opens, and when you enter and press
another button corresponding to the
floor you desire to go to, the door
closes and the machine carries you to
your destination. The dumb waiter
in the pantry is operated in the same
manner. In connection with the pam
try there is an electric warming plant.
There is also a watchman's clock and
burglar alarm outfit, which is perfect
in mechanism and operation. An au-
tomato electric fire alarm has been
arranged with connections through
out the building. The ventilating
mechanism is so arranged that the air
in the whole building is completely
changed every IL minutes. The water
supply is furnished from a huge tank
under the roof. This tank is kept
filled by an automatic electric device.
The electrical crystal chandeliers in
the east, green, blue and red rooms
are simple in design, but magnificent
in effect.
