COMMISSIONER SARGENT TELLS
WHAT HE KNOWS.

Philadelphia-The immigration prob
lem was discussed at a session of the
American Academy of Political and So
cial Science. The subject was pre-
scented in a comprehensive address by
Frank p. Sargent, commissioner of
immigration, who spoke on govern
ment regulations. Among other speak
ers was Franklin H. Giddings, LII. D.,
professor of sociology at the Columbia
university. Speaking on The Prob
lem of Assimilation" Commissioner
Sargent said, in part:
NO question of public policy is of
greater Importance or affects so close
ly the interests of the people OF this
country for the time, present and to
come, as that of immigration. 1t pre-
sents both practical and a senu-
mental side. 1t can not be dealt with

MAY BE COMMANDER HIRosE.
Body of Japanese Officer Buried at
Port Arthur.

Tokio.-The body Of the officer found
and buried at Port Arthur, is unques-
tionably Commander Hirose, who lost
his life in the engagement on Marcn
81, when Vice Admiral Togo made his
second attempt to bottle up the port.
The description of the uniform tallies
with that worn by officers of HirOse's
rank. The fact that the body had been
missing is further confirmation of this.
The government fully appreciates the
action of the Russians in giving the
body a military funeral and officers of
the naval staff have requested the AS
sociated Press to express their appre-
citation of the Russian courtesy.
Commander Hirose is the greatest
hero of the war and after the conclus-
ion of hostilities it is planned that an
effort will be made to secure the re-
mains now inferred at Port Arthur ana
bring them to Japan.

TRADE REPORT.

Commercial conditions have 1mproV-
ed somewhat during the past week, al
though there is still much to be de-
sired. Dispatches from the south are
encouraging. At the east more sea-
sonable weather prevailed, yet spring
trade is still below normal. The best
news of the week was the settlement
of many labor controversies, or at
least resumption of work pending arbl-
tration. Manufacturing news is still
confusing. Notable Improvement In
the iron and steel industries is offset
by less favorable news regarding the
textile and footwear trade. Agricul-
tural work progresses rapidly under
better than average conditions. 1t is
a good sign that the month opened
with prices of commodities less infiat-
ed. Less activity in western hides
markets was not accompanied by a
weakness; on the contrary, limited Of
ferings by packers gave increased
strength to all varieties except native
steers of recent sailing.
Failures numbered 235 in the Unit
ed States.

PROGRESS IN IRRIGATION.
Five Projects Look Good to the Gov
eminent

GIIlIHCTls
WashingtOn.-The progress made in
the irrigation work of the government
is reviewed in a publication issued by
the geological survey, which points
out the necessity for great caution and
conservatism in the expansion of the
reclamation work. 1t says that of the
irrigation projects favorably reported
in 1903, which included those on the
Truckee river in Nevada, on the Salt
river in Arizona, on Milk river in Mon.
tana, on Sweetwater river in Wyoming
and on GunnlsOn river in Colorado, the
Nevada and Arizona projects have
been declared feasible and construction
on the engineering works along Lne
Truckee and Salt rivers has progressed
to a reasonable extent.
The Montana project, however, has
presented unexpected engineering diff
fculties, as we'll as complications re-
garding water rights, so that progress
is slow. 1t has been found necessary
to modify the first plans In order to
achieve early results.
The Wyoming project as first out
lined has been found impracticable. A
better reservoir site than that of the
Sweetwater, however, has been dis
covered on the North Platte, so that a
large system Of development may be
worked out there in the futile. En-
gineering difficulties are encountered
in the Colorado project The amount
of arid lands thereby reclaimable is
less, too, than was expected.

SOUND INDIANS GAMBLE.
Some of the Indians Lost Everything
They Had.

Tacoma, Wash, April 14.-After a
weeks exciting sport the first big gam
BILE that the Indian tribes in this local
ity have had for years has come to a
close. The tribes participating were
the Nisquallys, Puyallups, the Mud
Bays, the Sqauxon islanders, the Sko-
komish and the Indians from Hoods
canal.
In winning the game the Nisquallys
have come into much property of the
other tribes, and Alex Soughlet, Mis-
qually buck, who came in from the
camp, says that many of the losers had
scarcely enough blankets left to keep
them warm. They wagered ponies,
dogs, blankets, wearing apparel, coon
skins, firearms and gewgaws of all
sorts. The gambling was in a large
shack on the Nisqually river, about
four miles above the Northern Pacific
bridge on the Olympia branch.
The disc was used in gambling. The
manipulation fumbles the disc through
two small piles of cedar bark, ground
fine. The Indians opposite guess which
side holds the disc. If correct, it
counts a point for his side. They play
ed for 500 points.
Each of the tribes elected a gambling
squad from among the shrewdest and
most experienced of their bucks. This
squad was subdivided into several
smaller squads of six or eight each.
The gambling proceeded night and day
from the time it began, a week ago,
until the game broke up at daylight
this morning. AS the shifts of players
collapsed from WEAKNESS, hunger and
excitement a fresh squad took their
places.
Two or three times the visiting
tribes got as high as 200 and 800
points, when unlucl1y turns would start
their star of victory in a reverse di-
rection. 1t was only after a weeks
steady playing that the Nisquallys
reached the final point and gathered in
the accumulated stakes.

Merger Decision Reversed.

The United States supreme court
has decided the case OF the state of
Minnesota versus the Northern Sc
curities company and the Northern Pa
cific and Great Northern Railway com
panies, involving the validity Of the
merger Of the railroad companies,
holding that the lower court was with
out jurisdiction and reversing its opin-
ion, Justice Harlan, who delivered
the opinion, said that the circuit court
should not have entertained jurisdic-
tion in the case, the effect being to re-
mand the case to the state.
In delivering the opinion OF the
court, Justice Harlan cited the facts
bearing upon the origin and history
of the case, saying that originally the
suit was instituted by the state in its
own court, but that before an opinion
could be reached there it was, on pc
tition of the Securities company, trans
ferred to the circuit court for the dis
trict of Minneapolis by which court it
was dismissed Much controversy
arose over the right to remove to the
federal court, and after hearing the
case argued once the supreme court
ordered a second hearing on that
point

Disaster
BattleshipStruCk
a Mine and
Sunk.

st. Petersburg, April IA semi
official telegram announces that the
Russian battlesihp Petrovpalovsk has
been sunk off Port Arthur and that
only four of the officers were saved,
among them being the Grand Duke
Criyl, who was wounded. 1t is esti
mated that from six to seven hundred
men persisted when the Petropavlosk
sank. 1t is officially announced that
Vice Admiral Makaroff was drowned
at the time of sinking of the battleship
Petropavlovks. While going out to
meet the japanese fleet off Port Arthur
the Petropavlovsk struck a mine in the
outer reaodstead, keeled over, turned
turtle and sank. Practically the whole
of her crew were lost. Only four Off
GERS were saved, among them being
the Grand Duke Cyril. The Petvrop-
loysk was flying the flag of Vice ADJ
miral Makarotf. The result of the
naval battle, which, according to the
most reliable authority, was in prog
ress, according to the last reports has
not been received.
Ghetto, April IA private dispatch
from Port Arthur says the japanese
attacked that place at daylight and
drove the enemy off. The dispatch
adds that the town was not damaged.
The effect of the bombardment of the
forts and fleet was not mentioned.
Weihaiwei, April 14-The British
gunboat Espiegle, which left New
chwang recently for this port, has ar
rived, and reports that at daylight,
while off Port Arthur, she heard the
sound of heavy firing, saw the flashes
of guns and believed that fleet action
was proceeding. Three men of war
of unknown nationality were seen in
the distance. Intense excitement
has been caused at st. Petersburg by
reports spread broadcats regarding the
disaster at Port Arthur Another re-
port is to the effect that the telegram
which Grand Duke Vladimir received
was from Grand Duke Boris, brother
of Grand Duke Cyril, announcing that
the Petropavlovsk, of which Cyril was
first officer, had been blown up by
striking a Russian mine, only four
officers escaping. The Grand Duke
Cyril's wound was said to be slight.
The report did not mention the losses
sustained by the crew. Another ac-
count says 20 men escaped from the
disaster to the Petropavlovsk.
Grand Duke Cyril was only saved
from death by miracle. His brother,
Grand Duke Boris, witnessed the cat
astrophe through a marine glass.
