In the report of Gen. Luke Wright.
as civil governor, it is stated that
there has been marked progress in as
riculture over the preceding year and
that the islands are gradually recov-
ering from the blighting effects OF
the rinderpest which attacked the
carabaos with such violence a few
years ago. The city of Manila is be-
ing improved and beautified; the elec-
tric street railway is being rapidly
built, and the authorities are prepar.
ing to begin soon the construction of
new sewer and water systems.
The report of Dean C. Worcester.
SIS secretary of the interior, states
that health conditions are generally
good throughout the. islands; that
cholera has completely disappeared;
that local epidemics of smallpox have
been promptly checked, and that bu-
banjo plague has decreased to the ev
tent that there were only eighty-seven
cases in Manila as against two hun
,dred for the previous year.
James F. Smith, in his report as
secretary of public instruction, says
that 80 provincial high schools are
now in operation in thirty-five of the

schools have been permanently es-
tablished in 629 of the $50 municipal

GENERAL oRDER AND PEACE

RELATIONS BETWEEN AMERI-

GENERALLY CORDIAL.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 16.-The an
nual report of the Philippine Com
mission of which Luke E Wright is
president was sent to Congress to-day
by the Secretary of War. 1t is dated
November /, 1904
Reviewing present conditions in
the islands. the report says that there
is no reason to suppose that the gem
eral order and peace now prevailing
viii be otherwise than permanent.
The relations between Americans
and natives are generally cordial, and
there continues steady growth of
confidence and good feeling. AS an
instance of the futility of agitators
attempting to stir up insurrection, the
report cites a secret trip made by Ar
temio Ricarte from the Hong Kong
junta through Northern Luzon,
where he found to his astonishment
that the people were deaf to his ap-
peals.

The Moro Country.

The report gives separate consider
alton to conditions in the Moro coun-
try. The people of that province at
first did not take kindly to the efforts
of the Commission to organize local
government, resenting any interfer-
ence with their customs, and regard,
ing the appearance of the white men
as an Intrusion. Our soldiers were at
tackled when they went on trips into
the interior. and it became necessary
for Gen. Leonard Wood. governor of
the province, to take stern measures
to repress them.
.sHe reduced several of their cot
tas.'' says the report, ..and gave them
a salutary and much needed lesson.
Since then there have been no overt
acts of hostility

Some Recommendations.

The report urgently recommends
the abolition. or reduction to not more
than 25 per cent. of the Dingley tar
iff on sugar and tobacco sent from the
islands to the United States, saying:
aside from being measure of sim
pie: Justice, nothing which Congress
could do would have such a tremen-
dous moral effect upon the people OF
the islands. 1t is difficult for them 20
appreciate the soundness of the rea-
sons which give this benefaction TO
to them. :.
Among the other recommendations
are the following:
Authorization for the Commission
to issue bonds not to exceed $4,000
600 for Improvements.
Exemption of all Philippine bonds
from taxation.
Control of inter-island shipping to
be left entirely 10 the Commission.
Guarantee by the Philippine gov

PASSENGERS ON CAR
EXPOSED TO SMALLPOX
Conductor Afflicted Works Until Found
by Health Department

Suffering with a mild form of small
pox, w. f. Heckel, a street car con-
ductor, ii is claimed by the health de-
partment, is responsible for injecting
three or four persons who now are pa
tients at the detention hospital. Heckel
was taken to the hospital Saturday
night.
1t has been ascertained by the health
officers that Heckel was taken sick on
the night of Feb. "a at the conclusion
Of game of ten pins which he bowled
with j. o. Pontius, 179 West Sixth
street, and that he then-went to his
home at White Bear, where he re-
manned for two weeks. He then re-
turned to his work as street car CON-
ductor. and was taken into custody
Saturday just after he had finished a
run on a Mississippi car.
Heckel disclaimed any knowledge of
having the disease, but an inspection Of
his person revealed the scaling skin pc
culiar TO the malady. Pontius was
taken to the detention hospital Friday,
as was also August Schopp, las Fifth
street, who was employed in a barber
shop where Heckel got shaved
While person who knowingly con-
ceals the fact that he is infected with
smallpox is liable to criminal prosecu-
ton, it is not thought that the law can
apply TO Heckel, who suffered so little
inconvenience that he was probably
unaware of the nature Of the disease
with which he was afflicted
