CLAssED AS NEGROES
Natives From New Possessions Cannot
Enter School in Kentucky.

LOUISVILLE, KY, July 9.-The
state board has instructed the high
school board to inform four PHILIPPINE
students, who applied for admission to
the Dupont Manual Training High
School that their color debars them
from the privileges of the public
schools.
When the request that the Filipino
boys he allowed free admittance to the
school was presented to the board, DR.
r. E. Calvin inquired if F'ilipinos are
not negroes.
Prof. Mark said he had investigated
the law as to the separation Of races

"cOlored" applies to negroes, Indians
and other brown races.

Gotham Letter

NEW YORK, July 9-The date for
he formal opening of the subway has
inally been set for September l. The
completion of the enormous undertake
.ng has been delayed so often by va
rlous causes, that the public finds it
aard to take the announcement of the
management seriously. 1t seems, that
even the management does not feel
quite certain Of being able to keep its
promise and made the announcement
IN a conditional form, saying, the sub
way would be opened on September l.,
provided no strikes would interfere
with the work of completing the task.
The work is one of tremendous magni-
'ude and Importance and will not be
fully appreciated until later on, when
1t is in full operation. Very few peo-
PIE IN New York have a clear idea of
the extent of the undertaking and of
the enormous difficulties which had to
w oNoi ooiile. Up 10 the present TIME,
the citizens have only become ac-
quainted with the disagreeable fea-
lures of the work, the blockading of
streets in consequence of the excava-
tons necessary along the route of the
subway. 1t is safe to say, however
that they will soon forget these petty
annoyances, when they begin to REAP
the fruits of the enormous undertaking
and rapid transit becomes more than a
mere dream of the future

The unusually great number of sui
des, committed in this city during the
past few months has attracted the at
tention of the authorities and a move
ment is under way to enact such laws
as will make at least one method of
self destruction more difficult TO &C
compl1sh. Statistics show that during
the year 1903 no less than 337 per-
sons committed suicide with carbOlic
acid; next in number came 153 per
sons who ended their lives by shoot
ing themselves; 131 died by asphyxia :
ton; 81 by hanging: 40 by cutting
their throats 10 by drowning; each
by Paris green and morphine. There
seems to be a kind of fascination in
carbolic acid as a means of self-de-
structiOn and even the most narrowing
reports in the papers about the ag0nies
suffered by persons who had selected
the carbOlic acid route to the great be
ring effect. The principal reason fol
the preference which is given car5oliC

that the poison is cheapIy and easily
secured Any child can go to almost

When completed the Hotel Aston,
which is building now on Forty sec
ond street will probably be the most
costly and luxurious hotel building in
the world. The ground alone repre-
sents about one million dollars and the
cost of the building, not including the
furnishing and interior decorations will
be about $4,000, 600 Probably $4,000, 900
more will be expended on interior fur
nishings William Waldorf AstOr, who
is building the hotel, has practically
given carte blanche to the architects,
builders and decorators and it is said
by those who are in a position to judge
that the new hotel will not only be of
wonderful beauty, but also equipped in
the most modern manner and as safe
as any building can possibly be made.
The license question is still unsettled
but it is stated on good authority, that
Mr.. Astor has found a way to over
come the opposition of certain oppO-
nentS to the granting of a liquor Ii
cense to the new hotel. The next
question, and one which interests the
hotel keepers of this city more than
anything else is, will it be possible to
put the hotel on paying basis? Many
hotelmen strongly doubt this and ex-
! press the belief that the hotel will
probably prove a very expensive play
thing for Mr.. AstOr.

two drunken Hungarians from being
run over by switch train at o'clock
Monday afternoon Edward w. Suther-
land, son of D. S. Sutherland, divi-
sion superintendent of the Michigan
Central railroad, living in Detroit, was
Nn over and instantly killed by his
own train at the corner Of Grove and
Sixth streets.
The engine, in charge of Engineer

Sunderland, is one that does switch
Ing about the Wyandotte yards and to
the various manufacturing plants, and
Just before the accident the crew was
engaged in switching at Michigan AL
kali works No. 2. The rain as made
up consisted of seven box and coal
cars in front Of the engine, and long
string of cars behind. The train left
| the plant and proceeded at its usual
| speed out the long switch on Grove
street toward the yards uptown, with
| Sutherland, as brakeman, standing on
| the bumpers Of the first coal car.
He Slipped and Fell.
AS they approached Sixth street a
| couple of drunken Huns staggered
| along and attempted to cross over the
! tracks in front of the moving train.
Mr.. and Mrs. F. Pieper, who live at
the corner where the tragedy occurred,
saw the impending danger and called

voices to the Huns, whose befuddled
brains could not conceive their terri

ers' attention, and as a last resort,

push them from the track. AS he did
30 he slipped and fell, his body lying
across the rail. His falling form
caught the eyes of the Huns and with
frightened yell they threw them
selves off the track just in the nick Of
time.
The box cars had obscured from the
view Of both the engineer and fireman
the terrible fatality taking place at
the front of their train, and it was not
until Mrs. Pieper ran out, waving her
hands, that they had an intimation Of
anything wrong. The train was
stopped at once, but too late. Already
six cars and the first trucks had passed
over Sutherland's body. He was be-
yond the aid Of a physician, having
been killed instantly.
During the excitement the two Hun
garians left the scene of the accident
and up to late hour last night their
Identity could not be learned.
Sutherland was q years of age and
has been in the employ of the Michi-
gan Central for about year, his in
tention being to work his way up in
the profession.
