The Mckinley Monument.

Within the past two years, according
to the announcement OF the committee
in charge, S5oO,OOO has been raised by
popular subscription for the erection in
Canton, Ohio, Of a monument to WILLIAM
MCKINLEY. This unprecedented con-
tribution represents hundreds Of thou
sands OF small donations from people all
over the United States, irrespective OF
partisarship, who have felt it to be II
privilege so to honor his memory. Many
of them disagreed with his policies when
he was in public Office, but there was
none who did not gladly pay tribute to
the man and the Executive. Every State
in the Union has contributed its share
to the Mckinley Monument Fund.
This half million will build the monu-
ment, but the sum Of 500 900 is also asked
for by the Mckinley National Memorial
Association as an endowment fund to
provide for its care and preservation,
With the Association, We hope that this
additional amount-a wholly wise and
proper supplement of the tirst-will be
given as promptly and as graciously.

enco to the interests Of Latin-American
republics. We were impelled, primarily
and mainly, by the instinct OF self-pres.
ervation, for we foresaw that our national
security and welfare would be threatened
by any further extension OF the European
political system to the New World.
Itreally matters little to US that foreign
Governments or their citizens or subjects
should lend to an American republic
more than she can possibly repay. II
also matters not very much to US that
a spendthrift or dishonest American re-
public should be mulcted by her creditors
OF a largo part, or even the whole, OF her
customs revenue If we draw the hne
sharply and peremptorily at any dismem-
berment of her territory, this Is SIMPLY
because 1t does not accord with our ma
tional interests that any European Power
shall acquire square foot OF soil on the
American continent beyond what that
Power is already master Of. In word,
it was the interest Of the United States,
and not any high, humanitarian design
that we had in view when the Monroe
Doctrine was put forth. 1t is by an
enlightened conception OF the same pur-
pose that we shall continue to be guided
in our construction and application OF the
doctrine.

THE OPEN DOOR IN MANCHURIA.
Crisis Reached In the Negotiations Over
the Opening OF Ports to Commerce.


WARRINGTON, juno 24.--The crisis has
been reached in the negotiations at Shanghai
over the opening Of ports in Manchuria.
The United States Government. in negotiat-
ing a commercial treaty with China, has
insisted upon the incorporation OF an agree
ment that Mukden and Takushan, the Man
churian ports. shall be open to foreign trade.
but the Chinese Commissioners. one of whom
is WI Tng-fang, formerly Minister to the
United States. have shown an indispostion
10 do this. II is asserted that the Chinese
Government Ia willing to grant the freedom
Of these ports, but Is restrained by Russia.
and q new proposal that the question OF
applying the open door" at Mukden and
Takushan shall be considered separately
from tho commercial treaty is attributed
to Russian influence.
Tho United States England and Japan
are strenuously opposing this proposal.
They insist that the opening Of Manchurian
ports shall he included In the commercial
arrangements. To leave this important
matter for future consideration, they as
sert, would be unwise, as with the COM
mercial treaty concluded there would be
nothing left in the way Of concessions to
induce China to grant commercial free
dom at Mukden and Takushau.
Although it is boldly asserted In Pekin
and Shanghai that Russia is preventing
China from agreeing to the opening Of
these ports the Russian Government con-
tinues to assure the Government of the
Manchdria, and is willing that there shall
be the freeet commercial intercourse be-
tween that rich province and the rest Of the
world.

ACCUSES TWO U. s. OFFICIALS.
Little Crsdence Given to Pedler Of BeSus
- Naturalization Papers.


Roberto Bennaro, who has pleaded guilty
OF selling fraudulent naturalization papers
to Italians and who is to be sentenced on
Friday by Judge Thomas Of the United
States Circuit Court spent four hours yester-
day in the Office Of Assistant United States
District Attorney Houghton trying to
dicker for clemency in exchange for an
alleged confession involving United States
officials.
The prisoner, after his conviction, told
Mr. Houghton that he would make state
ment which would iinplicate the officials
and fix upon them the guilt Of furnishing
the naturalization papers, all signed and
sealed, il the District Attorney would have
sentences suspended or made nominal
Bsnnaro was told that he might make
statement and that it would be considered.
but that no favors could be promised be-
forehand. Under those conditions the
Italian took chance Of making some
impression and told his story to Mr. Hough-
ton and Secret Service Agent Peeke. He
named two officials and said that they
came to his home, 227 Mulberry street, on
SUNDAYS to deliver the papers, Bennaro
couldn't think of anything In the way OF
evidence to corroborate his story, and Mr..
Houghton didn't think enough Of it to ask
the prisoner to put 1t in the form of an
affidavit or take 1t down in writing
Nobody about the Federal Building took
tho confession" very seriously, not even
the two men who were said to have made
Sunday trips to Mulberry street to peddle
United States documents.
Assistant District Attorney Houghton

did say, aYou can bet that Bennaro will 60

STRANGE STORY.
Remarkable Case 0f Loyal Friendship In

A dramatic story Of self-sacri1ce on the
part Of a crook has dribbled out through the
grim and unromantic criminal courts.
The young bunco man Bert Clayton is
said to have gone to prison to save his feeble
old pal Thomas Snow.
The circumstances were such that they
could both have a slim chance OF going clear
or one could OF a certainty go free II the other

CHARLES s. MAc1ARIANE, who was mur-
dered in the Criminal Courts Building last
week by the negro policy runner SPENCER

shot down because he had been absolutely
faithful to his duty of suppreesng policy,
the most pernicious form OF gambling ever
introduced in this city. Policy, until the
King OF the Policy Ring, AL ADAMS. was
landed in Sing Sing, had engendered spirit
of contempt for the law in the minds OF
the criminals engaged in it that led to the
shocking murder of MAcFARLANE.
Within two hours OF the shooting SPENCER
was indicted. and there is no doubt that
Justice will be swift and sure in his case

A PHILIPPINE PARADISE.
Climate % Equabie ss Hawaii and ~ brse'
ine as the AdlrOndacks.

Summer stations at high attitudes IN
tropical lands are important for the health
and comfort OF white immigrants from the
temperate zones. II they may have
breathing spell during the most heateo
period at an altitude where the air ID prao-
ing. the temperature moderate, the water
pure and cold and the scenery beauthui
and inspiring, they may acquire lreeh
stock OF health and vigor to carry them
comfortably through their daily routine
Such spot was found in the Philippines
in August. 1900, when our meteorological
station was established in Benguet, IN
northern Luzon, $50 miles north OF Manila
and twenty miles from the China Sea.
During the first year the mean tempera-
ture in April, May and June. the hottest
months in the Philippines, was os'o degs'
Fahrenheit. and the mean temperature
from November to February inclusive,
the most temperate months. was o'e oegs.'
The amount of rain. cloudinees ana humlo-
ity and the nature OF the soil made u certain
that the fruits Of temperate climates wouio
thrive In this favored region
When the Philippine Weather Bureau was
organized In May, 1901, 1t began to give
special attention to the climatology OF
various regions in the archipelago that
might be chosen as health resorts. Benguet
was the subject Of the first exhaustive
study and report. Father Algue. director
of the Bureau, wrote pamphlet of seventy
one pages on the climatology OF Benguet,
which was published last year as the first
number OF the series on health resorts. 1t
is not surprising in view OF the facts he pre-
sented that we are now hearing Of Benguet
as the coming summer capital and perhaps
the permanent capital OF the archipelago.
Benpuet is a small province OF Luzon.

the mountains where the Government build
inps are to be erected stands at an elevation

Father Algue, comparing the climatologi-
cal data OF Benguet with those OF all the hill
stations Of India and Ceylon situated above
8 900 feet, finds that the climate OF the Phil
lipine station appears to be milder and more
favorable for health resort than that OF
any other station. The Benguet highlands
with their forests Of pine and cedar, their
rich, red soil where all the garden, field and
fruit crops OF California thrive. and their
grass lands where thousands Of our cattle
will some day Craze, are evidently destined
to play a most useful part In tho develop
ment Of the Philippines.
