Commission Well Cared For.

Commission Well Cared For.
Mr.. Foster described the quarters that
were provided for the commission by the
British government, and said the public ses-
sions were held in the room in Downing
street, near the war office. which is devoted
to the receptions of ambassadors. Adjoin-
ing private consultation rooms and a state
dining room where a daily collation. was
served were among the many conveniences
prepared for the members of the commits
sion. The rooms were commodious, ade-
quately lighted and beautifully decorated
and furnished. He made mention of these
matters In detail, he said, in order that they
might be contrasted with the foreign Office
of the United States-the State Department
which had no facilities whatever for car
Ing for courts of arbitration or other inter-
national or interstate commissions which
frequently meet in Washington.
Reference was made to the refusal of the
Canadian commissioner to sign the decision,
General Foster saying that, in view of the
fact that failure had been made to sustain
the British contentious there had been
angry criticism and bitter disappointment
felt in Canada over the result of the long
standing dispute. After the Geneva award,
he said, feelings akin to these had been felt
and expressed in England, and, again, the
United States lost in the Halifax award
and the people were not in pleasant frame

In Paris particularly please this country.
Finally Acquiesce.
But the people, after cool considera-
ton of the case, Gained their injured feel
ings," he said in conclusion, land generally
feel that this method Of settling disputes
of this character is infinitely better than
any other that has yet been devised, and the
tub xxbfc will
war. After the announcement in London of
the decision of the commission the British
member said: I have to say that the agent
and counsel Of the United States have acted
with perfect courtesy and good faith
throughout Since the return of that gen.
tleman to his station in Ottawa and his re-
sumption of duty as a member of the do
minion cabinet he has announced that the
decision will be accepted and carried out in
good faith by his government

TRADE WITH PHILIPPINES.
Senator Frye's Bill Restricting the Car
rying of Passengers and Merchandise.

Senator Frye has introduced bill to reg
ulate commerce between the United States
and the Philippine archipelago, providing
that on and after July 1. 1904, under PEN
atty of forfeiture, no merchandise shall be
transported by sea, or any passengers car
ried between ports of the United States
and ports or places in the Philippine archi-
pelago, in any other than vessels sailing
under the flag of the United States. The
bill does not apply the coasting laws in
their entirety to trade between the Phil p
pines and the United States, as was done IN
the cases of Alaska, Hawaii and Porto
Rico, but simply restricts the transporta-
ton of freight and passengers to American
vessels.
Mr.. Frye also introduced a bill to remove
discrimination against American sailing
vessels IN the coasting trade by providing
for the licensing of pilots for terms of five
years, when the applicant has been found
competent and trustworthy.

Evelyn Porter had come home in June to
take her place as mistress of her fathers
house. The fact that she alone of the
girls belonging to families OF position In the
town had gone to college had set her lit
tie apart from the others. During her four
years at Smith she had evinced no unusual
interest in acquiring knowledge; she was
fair student only and had been graduated
without honors save those which her class
had admiringly bestowed on her. She had
entered into social and athletic diversions
with zest and had been much more popular
with her felow-students than with the
faculty. She brought home no ambition
save to make her fathers home as COM
Portable as possible. She said to herself
that she would keep up her French and
German. and straightway put books within
reach to this end She had looked with
wonder unmixed with admiration upon the
strenuous woman she had seen her, full
OF ambition to remake the world in less
than six days; and she dreaded the type
with the dread natural in a girl of twenty
two who has sound appetite, taste in
clothes, with money to crafty 1t. and lik-
ing for fresh air and sunshine.
She found 1t pleasant to slip back into the
life of the town; and the girl friends
or older women who met her on
summer mornings in the shopping
district of Clarkson remarked to one
another and reported to their sons
town; and the girl friends or older women
who met her on summer mornings in the
shopping district of Clarkson remarked
to one another and reported to their sons
and husbands that Evelyn Porter was at
home to stay and that she was just as
cordial and friendly as ever and had no
airs. 1t pleased Evelyn to find that the
clerks in the shops remembered her and
called her by name; and there was some
thing homelike and simple and charac-
teristic in the way women that met in
the shops visited with one another in
these places. She caught their habit of
going into Vortini's for soda water where
she found her acquaintance of all ages
sitting at tables, with their little parcels
huddled in their laps. discussing absen-
tees and the weather. She found, in these
encounters, that most OF the people she
knew were again agitated. as always at
this season, because Garrison was no
cooler than in previous years; and that
the women were expressing their old re-
luctance to leave their husbands who
could not get away for moro than two
weeks. II at all. Some were already pre-

PORTO RICAN AFFAIRS
FIRST APPEAL TO u. S. SUPREME
COURT is POLITICAL.
Collapse Of Trolley Scheme-Gompers
to Visit Island-New Audit
System Adopted.

| Special Correspondence of The Evening Star.
SAN JUAN. P. R., December 2.-The first
, appeal from the Supreme Court of Porto
| Rico to the Supreme Court of the United
| states has gone on record. Because of the
political prominence of the man involved,
and because it is another test of whether
| the Constitution has followed the flag into
Porto Rico, the case has TIRED the island
! from end to end and from the Atlantic to
the Caribbean sea.
During the election campaign last fall
Jose Mauleon. leader of a turbulent element
OF the republican party, assaulted Genaro
Cruz, member of the Federation of Labor
breaking Cruz's arm and otherwise injuring
him. For this assault he was convicted.
Mauleon appealed to the supreme court, and
that court confirmed the sentence of the
lower court. He then went to the peniten-
tiary to serve his term of one year and one
day imposed by the district court.
Recently he made an application for a
writ of habeas corpus to the supreme court,
which was denied. and it is from that de-
cision that Mauleon appeals to the Supreme
Court of the United States
The republican party of Porto Rico is said
TO be back of the appeal. The ground for
appeal will be that the Constitution of the
United States has been violated in the ap-
VI ZIG Olu CouS VI criminal pro-
cedure.
On the granting of his appeal he was at
once released from the penitentiary in
bonds of S1,VO. The appeal in behalf of
Maueon was made after Governor Hunt
and Acting Governor Hartzell had refused
to pardon him.

APPALLING LIST
OF RAILWAY CASUALTIES IN THREE
MONTHS.

WASHINGTON d. c., Jan. 18.-A
statement prepared by the Interstate
Commerce Commission shows that
during the three months ending Sep
tember 30, 1902, there were 1853 per-
sons killed and 2,613 injured in train

the killed numbering 845 and the in
jurnd IL, 1862.
During the three months covered by
the statement the traffic OF large
majority OF the roads has been heavier

employment OF new men for service in
train and yard work.

derailments was 2,448, of which l, 444
were collisions and LOLA derailments,
of which 81 collisions and 80 derail-

A "plSToL TOTER."

Tho evil of ''pistol toting" habit
was notably illustrated by the affair
in Columbia, S. c., in which Editor
Gonzales was perhaps mortally shot by
Lieutenant-Govrn Tillman. Till
man had concealed weapon and Con-
zales was unarmed. They met on the
street and without word Tillman
drew his weapon and shot his victim.
1t was a cowardly deed. Gonzales
had no way Of defense and could only
hu1 at his murderous assailant the
stinging words, "Shoot again you cow
ard.'' If Tillman had had no deadly
weapon on his person the two men
would have passed each other without
alteration, as they had previously
done, but having pistol ready, he
took the advantage which it gave him
and without warning used it with
deadly effect.-Vicksburg American.
