FROST IN THE NORTHWEST,
Conflicting Reports rs to the Damage
Done to tho Crops.

CHICAGO, Sept. 14-ConHicting reports
a. to the extent Of the damage done by the
frost that prevailed over the central North
west States last night were received hero
to-day. A conservative estimate places
the loss to crops at 20 per cent. in Minnesota
and the Dakotas, but the damage to wheat
is only in North Dakota. In the northern
tier Of counties there is considerable green
wheat, and this was practically ruined.
Corn in southern Minnesota and South
Dakota generally was out Of the way Of
the frost, but many fields were damaged.
Estimates by experts place the loss on corn
at 10 per cent. and that on small grain at
5 per cent. The frost area extended we'll into
Iowa, and corn there suffered materially.
perhaps more than in any other part Of ths
Northwest
Another frost is predicted for tonight.

that the laborers who left waipahl

fact that the vagrancy law would be
exercised vigorously against those who
offended against 1t. The laborers had
no faith in the interpreters whom the
management had employed as these
were on the plantations side. They
had faith in Maxine as he was an Nm
Interested party. For this reason he
hoped that he might be able to have
some influence on the strikers.
Most people at Waipahu expected
that the strike will come to an issue

fident that the strikers will go back to

The strike of the japanese laborers
at Waipahu Is being settled today by
the payment Of the mems wages due
and discharglng them from the employ
ment of the plantation. This was the
course of action decided upon by the
plantation management after repeated
attempts to concillate the men and
meet them halfway. Yesterday the
time of the laborers was made up with
the intention OF playing quits with
them today.
The strikers yesterday had con-
ference among themselves and decided
to continue holding out against the
terms offered by the plantation.
The defiant attitude of the strikers
together with the decision reached by
the plantation management made 1t
certain that considerable feeling
would develop today and measures
we're consequently taken to meet any
emergency.
High Sheriff Brown with twenty-five
more armed officers repaired to the
scene Of the strike. going by the Q
o'clock train. This brings the number
o: officers at Waipahu TO over fifty.
These are armed adequately for the
purpose of suppressing mob violence
and keeping the peace.
The work Of paying OF the striking
Japanese was deferred until the arriv.
al Of High Sheriff Brown and his
squad.
When the police under High Sheriff
Brown reached Waipahu. the Japanese
we're holding u meeting. This meet
Ing had not adjourned at O'Clock.
Meanwhile no Japanese We're present.
Ing themselves TO receive their wages.
The police officers were assembled at
the plantation Office. In the japanese
quarters there was packing and hust-
ling OF bags and baskets as II In prep
aration for removal from the place.
1t is developing now that the crux
OF the strike Is the japanese contracts.
The japanese hope to bring pressure
enough to bear on the management to
have these contracts annulled.

SANITARY PROBLEM OF BIG
CANAL.

A Panama canal problem that can
hardly be classed as second in import
ance to the work engineers of the big
ditch have in hand, is care for the
health of workmen and general popula-
ton of the small strip now under
American control In many respects
this is the biggest sanitary task Amer
leans have, ever tackled Cuba and the
Philippines offered some natural adj
vantages IN climate and surroundings.
Once cleaned up and the people pre-
vented from returning to ancient fill
thy habits, the solution was complete.
Panama presents all the difficulties
OF dealing with an ignorant and indif-
ferent people with fhe additional dang
ers of most unbesithful climate AMI
disease breeding swamps. During the
French operations in canal construction
a veritable carnival of death Leigned.
Americans intend to conquer the land
and the climate
The first move in the sanitary pro-
gram of the isthmus has been to select
men whose condition Of health is good.
Thousands of applications for employ
ment by the government have poured
In at Washington. A general answer
was made public to the effect that the
successful candidates would be men In
the best physical. as well as mental,
condition. The same plan will. doubt
less be carried out in the selection of
laborers. The government win not. IL
II can be avoided, take men to the canal
strip who promise to land in the hos
pital few days after their first en-
counter with the climate and swamp
miasmas.
This policy of picking men with a
view TO their ability to resist the pres
ent dangers to life will of course be
accompanied by thoroughly modern
scheme for cleaning the canal strip,
making II as nearly permanently
healthful place as is possible. What
this sanitary army intends to do Is
told by Col. William c. Gorgas of the
Medical Corps in recent issue Of the
Review OF Reviews. He says:
