theory that the disease could be conveyed in cloth

PHILIPPINE RATE WAR.
Foreign Lines Plan to Capture
TnterisLand Traffic.

Washington Sept 19-Tndcations of rate
war between the transportation companies op-
Grating steamship lines in the interisland trade
of the Philippines and foreign ships plying be-
tween Hong Kong and other Oriental ports are
contained in information received here from
government sources.
The interisland traffic of the Philippines Is
restricted by act of Congress to vessels having
American register and operating under the
coastwise laws of the United States. Three or
four companies are operating lines of steamers
in this trade, having been established under
Spanish rule and later transferred to the Ameri-
can flag. These companies have been deprived
in the past of much business through the estab-
lishment of lines of steamers by the Philippine
government and the operation of transports or
the Quartermasters department Of the army.
Just the government ships are to be with
drawn from the trade however, news comes
that foreign ships operating principally from
Hong Kong have made rate from that port
to the four principal ports of entry in the Philip
pines for foreign vesses-Manila4 llollo, Cebu and
Zamboanga-which is less than the interisland
rate between these ports. The result OF this
rate it Is anticipated, will be to divert the COM
merce between these ports to Hong Kong at
the expense of Manila, and, accordingly, mer-
chants IN these cities will purchase thelr sup
plies in Hong Kong or elsewhere and abandon
completely the interisland commerce.
There is reason to believe that the interisl-
and transportation companies will meet the new
rate Of the foreign companies However, the
Americanization of the Philippines has increased
the cost of operating ships restricted to the
regulations of the coastwise laws and placed
them at the same disadvantage there that
American ship owners complain of in this coun-
try, whereas Hong Kong is regarded as one OF
which to ship crews.
1t is understood that Secretary Taft has been
placed in possession of the facts of this sttua-
ton, which is regarded as one of the serious
problems in the Philippine equation

PUNISH CAPT. HOTVILLF.
ReUoke License for Not
Aiding the Disabled SyEpb.

Washington Sept 19-The failure of Captain
w. H. Hotville, as master Of the United Fruit
Company's steamship Oteri. to give assistance
to the United States steamship Sylph. which was
disabled off the coast of North Carolina on the
night of April II, has cost him his position
through the revocation Of his license by the
United States Steamboat Inspection Service.
This action was taken by inspection officers at
Norfolk, Va, on September - and the CORE
spondence was made public to-day by the De-
partment of Commerce and Labor. The distress
Of the Sylph occurred while Lieutenant Evans
was bringing the vessel up the coast from Flor
ida, where it had been used by Mrs. Roosevelt
and the Roosevelt children for a cruise.
It appears from the evidence gathered by the
steamboat inspection service that Captain Hot
VILE made little effort aid the Sylph. The ac-
cusation of Lieutenant Evans and the reply OF
Captain Hotville do not materially differ. except
that Hotville offered an excuse for his action.
According to officers of the inspection service.
this excuse was the most damaging evidence OBJ
tanned.
Lieutenant Evans. in commenting on the Incl
dent told in detail Of the accident to the Sylph
and his failure to get the Oteri to respond to
his signal of distress. and said he was entirely
helpless and the Oteri knew it" He then
graphically described the experiences of the
night. the failure of other vessels to see the sig
nails from the Sylph. and finally of the rescue
the morning Of April 10 by the Morgan liner
Ell Cid, which put about from her course to
New Orleans Lieutenant Evans asked to be
towed into safe anchorage within Chesapeake
Bay and the request was complied with. The
Syph taken in tow, but her condition
so bad that the Morgan liner was compelled to
slow down from ten to five knots, and later to
three knots an hour. The report of Lieutenant
Evans closed with this statement
am firmly convinced that had the FL Cid not
taken into port the Sylph and all her people
would have been lost
The inspectors having charge of the inquiry
were Mr.. Tapley and Mr.. Bray. They said the
Sylph had broken down and asked to be taken
in tow, and that Captain HotvilIe failed to slow
down for the alleged reason that at the time the
Sylph was spoken the Geographic system
the Oteri became impaired. and there was
direct manner of sending word to the engine
room for reversal of the engines. The inspec-
tors held that this excuse showed the master to
be man without resources. and, that ground
and on that Of negligence. revoked his license
Captain Hotville wrote the inspectors from
his home in Massachusetts declining to go to
Norfolk, for the reason that he was out of en-
ployment for three months after the incident,
and for the rest of the time he had received only

TWO WAYS TO BUILD CANAL.

HOLLANDS PEACE CALL.
InUitatiom to Pozoers Expected
RuSSia's ActiOn Explained.

Washington Sept Is.-'It seems to the President
that the high task he undertook in seeking to bring
about an agreement of the powers to meet in a
second peace conference is virtually accomplished
far 1t is appropriate for him to act. and
that, with the general acceptance of his invita-
ton in principle. the future conduct of the affair
may fifty follow its normal channels. To this end
it is suggested that the further and necessary in
terchange of views between the signatories Of the
acts of 1899 be effected through the International
Bureau under the control of the permanent admin
istrative council of The Hague"

negotiations necessary to secure enunciation of
the views Of the respective powers to clear the
way for the reconvention of the conference. 1t is
pointed out that in doing this the President par
ticularly looked to the Government of the Meth
erlands'' to issue the call for the second con-
ference and it is the present understanding that
this will be done. 1t is assumed that what has
happened in St Petersburg is that the Russian
government which. above noted caused the
postponement OF the second conference account
of the war, is now about to remove the obstacle
and either has notified or is about to notify the
administrative council that 1t IS now willing 10
proceed to the second conference
The State Department. far, has not been
informed of this decision but is disposed to &C
cept the St Petersburg advices as conclusive on
that point The next step in order If the normal
course is followed is definite acceptance by the
powers of invitation naming SPECIFIC date for
the conference, and this probably will contain
reservations by most of the powers. with the pur-
pose Of securing limitations Of the programme Of
topics to be considered This may naturally be
pected to consume many weeks and perhaps
months, so it is improbable that the second
ference at The Hague will meet before the next
calendar year.
