Dispatches from San Juan. Porto Rico,
say z quietus has been put on the
smuggling scandals in the island by the
orders given TO the United States court
at San Juan from Secretary Shaw. At
torney General Knox and other high
Washington officials. Last April, eight
indictments were found on testimony
given by Collector Of Customs Cruzen.
The cases were suppressed on the order
OF the Attorney General after most Of
the indicted n,en had paid heavy fines.
The 1ning OF those indicted caused
dissatisfaction among the Porto Ricans,
as they said Americans were shown
favoritism. Then followed the investi-
cation against Cruzen. and his indict-
ment, and that Of other Americans.
Cruzen was charged with receiving
struggled goods. and the others with
smuggling. Now Judge Holt. Of the
United States court at Porto Rico. has
decided these men shall not be punish

the evidence is insufficient

article from the London Colonizer. ."
the report says:
We'll may it be said that these facts

Socialist labor policy OF the existing
state government Here. We are told

institutions are now ran solely in the
interests OF the worker; whose poll

PRESIDENT TO STUDY
NEEDS OF PHILIPPINES
HAS Conference on the Subject at the
White House with A. Burlin-
game Johnson.

President Roosevelt win take up the
question Of the needs of the Philippines
in the way Of legislation with Governor
TAFT when that official arrives in this
country TO assume his duties as Secre-
tary of War and will go into the sub
Ject carefully. He intimated this to A.
Burhngame johnson. formerly in the
diplomatic service Of this country in
China, who is now resident of Manila.
and who has interested much American
capital in the Islands Among the other
concerns which Mr. johnson has pro-
NOTED Is the street railway now being
constructed in Manila.
Mr. johnson in his talk with the Presi-
dent went over the legislative needs OF
the islands at length. He favors the
reduction Of duties on Philippine goods
brought to this county through recip-
rocal arrangements. and the President
himself is friendly to this. Much other
legislation is needed, however, accord
ing to Mr.. Johnson. Larger revenue is
required for the islands, and the tax
ing of of the hemp export tax. Mr..
johnson says, was a mistake. 1t de-
prived the islands of about a million
dollars in revenue. The tariff, he thinks,
ought to be taken from steel rails and
such products as are necessary for the
building up OF railroads
transportation is the great need OF
the Islands, says Mr. Johnson. "and
only oy extending railroads and trans
puFtalon facilities can the development
OF the Philippines be FASTENED. At pres
ent transportation Of freights is twenty
hve times higher than it is in this
country"
Mr.. Johnson recently came from
Manila He says the islands. aside from
Mindanao, are in "A peaceful condition

go into the interior.
