DATTo PROMISES TO BEHAVE
Situation I'm JOlO ia More PrOmIsinE
Than It Has Been for
some Time. ~

MANILA, April 2-The situation in Jolo
is more promising. Datto Pagliman Has
san, the most powerful native leader, Wis
tied Colonel Wallace and accepted the
colonels explanation OF American policy.
He promised to be peaceful.
There has been considerable inter-tr
strife, but no demonstrations have occurred
lately in Jolo against Americans.
General Davis has planned to locate a
strong military post in the center of Jolo
island.
The general, as representative Of the
Philippine government, will go to Jolo
shortly and have a conference with the sui
tan. The government is desirous of abro-
eating the Bates treaty with the sultan,
which has proved unworkable and which
conflicts with the American laws. The
government also wishes to establish a gov
ernment for the Moros and formulate q
definite Moro policy.
At present the military authorities exer-
else general control over the dattos. The
military prevent the recapture of fugitive
slaves and punish fragrant crimes, but they
do not interfere with slavery, polygamy OF
tribal customs. The general conditions are
unsatisfactory and reform is imperative
The government has heretofore refrained
from taking action, as 1t did not desire to
cause trouble.

MEAT LAW NOW IN EFFECT
Although IT CrippIes American Trade
with Germany Not Likely
to Destroy 1t.

BERLIN, April 2.-The last provisions Of
the meat inspection law OF June 3, 1900,
went into effect quietly yesterday at the
ports and throughout the empire. This
most far-reaching and sumptuary measure
was put in operation piecemeal by occa-
sional doses the ministry of the interior
having to create the inspection machinery.
Section 12, referring to canned meats and
sausages, which became effective Septem-
Der l, 1901, further reduced American i'm
ports in that line, but boracic cured beef
had been coming in. though of late some
what less than two hundred tons per month,
roughly valued at $4,000. were imported
from America.
The exporters will endeavor to cure beef
without borax, and thus comply with the
German law, which as 1t now appears by no
means destroys the American meat trade
here, and it Is not improbable that the total
American meat imports this year will equal
those OF 1901, when the total valuation was
about Sc ,000, ,000
Owing to the high prices and insufficient
home supplies more than three-quarters of
the imports Of American meats are pre-
served.

DIFFER AS TO STRIKE AWARD
Miners and Operators Differ as to
whether Hours Are Lowered
or Wages Increased.

SCRANTON, Pa. April 2.--Trouble has
already been experienced as a result Of the
operators and miners not agreeing in their
Interpretation Of the strike commissions s
award.
The commission adjudged that the men
should be paid ION the basis OF a nine
hour day" without reduction of wages,
and with a pro-rata increase for overtime.
This the operators say does not decree a
nine-hour day but simply that they are
to pay the old ten hours wages for nine
hours work and overtime for each hour
worked more than nine.
At some collieries the men refused to
work more than nine hours and the col
Ieries had to shut down. The men them
selves. however. are divided as to the right
Interpretation. At the Green Ridge Coal
oompany's colliery the adults wanted ten
hours but the boys declared that a nine
hour day had been awarded and refused
to work longer.
The Dickson colliery local union passed
resolution declaring that no more than
nine hours should be worked,

jerks, head of the department of political
economy at Cornell university. who has
been in Mexico for the last month making
a special study of the monetary conditions
there upon invitation of that government,
returned to Ithaca today after having taken
part In the deliberations with the Mexican
minister Of finance regarding the plan to

with his Investigations in Mexico. He
made the following statement regarding the
currency problem In Mexico:
Il am of the opinion that the plans sug-
gested by the Mexican government, by
which stability viii be given to rates OF
exchange with gold-using countries will be
carried out, while at the same time silver
will continue to be the leading currency
employed within that country. Silver will
be kept at par by careful government con-
troll OF the amount coined, by the gold
exchange funds In some of the leading
financial centers, and s'oAsibly by other
means. IN e,.a

The attacking party numbered 1000 men.
representing the element opposing the plan
OF reforms which the powers jointly formu-
lated and which Turkey accepted.
The officials here consider that the Al
banian opposition to the reforms creates
a serious complication and they accept the
sultan's action in dispatching large rein
foroements to Albania as evidence of the
Turkish governments determination to
carry out the reforms projected.
Another official dispatch announces that
Russia has given Bulgaria a definite and
emphatic notification that in case the re-
sistance Of the Bulgarian settlers In
Turkey to the sultans reforms brings on
a Turkish Bulgarian conflict Bulgaria must
not count on any support moral or mate
rial from Russia. This is considered further
evidence Of the purpose Of the powers not
to interfere with the sultan's plans so long
as he is carrying out in good faith the
powers project for reforms.
CONSTANTINoPLE. April "details Of
the attack on NJ. St. Cherbina, the Russian
consul at MitrovitEa, show that 1t was made
by an Albanian sentinel, one Of whose
wives had been killed in the lighting at
Mitrovitza.
The consul, who was accompanied by a
Turkish escort, was on his way to inspect
the batteries, which finally repulsed the
Albanians who attacked Mitrovitza, when
a sentry at the powder magazine deliber-
ately shot NJ st. Cherbina in the back, the
bullet inficting a serious wound.
The sentry also fred at the consular mil
itary courier, but missed him. The other
soldiers of the guard then hurried up and
shot the Albanian sentinel, infieting NOR
