BECOMING BARREN WASTE
island of Lanai Suffering by Ravases
of Goats and High Winds.

Honolulu, Nov. 20.-VIa san Fran
cisco, Nov. 2S.-The Island of Lanai
the smallest inhabited island of the
Hawaiian group, is being laid bare by
the ravages of wild goats and the blow
ing away of its vegetation and soil by
high winds. Gov. Carter, who has just
returned from a trip to the island says
that if steps are not taken to prevent
the continued destruction of yegeta-
ton. the island will rapidly become
barren altogether.
About % years ago a colony of about
400 HaWaiianS was settled on the
island. The governor found only two
of them left. They are natives, each
over 4 hundred years of age, and are
the only residents of the island aside
from Charles Gay, who leases it, and
his employees. But for assistance the
two old natives would have died from
lack of support. The governor will
call attention of the board of forestry
and the legislature to the state of af-
fairs existing.

SHIP SUBSIDIES
And Amendments to Bill Discussed by
Merchant Marine Commission.

Washington, Nov. 2S.-The Merchant
Marine commission, composed of Sena-
tors and representatives, held meet
ing, today, to consider amendments to
the ship subsidy bill presented to the
last Congress. Those present were Sen
ator Gallinger, chairman; Senator
Lodge and Representatives Minor of
Wisconsin and Spight of Mississippi.
Eugene L. Chamberlain, commissioner
of navigation, also was in attendance
The commission took up the revision
of the bill by sections, making several
verbal changes for the sake Of added
clearness and precision and limiting
the subventions absolutely to ships en-
gagged principally in the foreign trade
as distinct from the coastwise COM
mcrce, from which foreign competition
has always been excluded. Another
amendment provides specifically that
no vessel receiving Il subvention under
the terms of the bill shall receive any
other subvention, bounty or subsidy
from the United States
Still another amendment requires
that one-half of the deck force Of ships
receiving subventions, shall be able
seamen, who have served at least two
years on deck. The commission is con-
siderng the question of providing es-
pGcial and extra inducements for
American vessels to participate more
largely than now in the carrying trade
between the United States and the
Philippine possessions. The commits
sion will meet again, Friday.

Powers Fleet Seize Gus
toms and Public Buildings
AT Myti|ene and Wait for SUI
tan to Think It Over.
Recent War Thought 10 Be Responsible for
Latter's Altitude. Another Seizure Booked.

ConstantinOple, via Sofia, Bulgaria,
Nov. 2S-Detachmen& from the in
ternational fleet landed at Mytilene,
Sunday afternoon, in accordance with
the instructions of Rear Admiral Rit-
ter Won Jedina and occupied the Gus
toms and postal buildings. The gov
crnor protested but his representations
We're not availing. During the Bairam
festival beginning, today, and ending
the evening of Nov. 80, the fleet will
take no further action but if the Sui
tan does not utilize the interval to ac-
cede to the demands of the powers the
fleet will occupy the island of Tanedos,
off the coast of Asia Minor.
The Porte continues it's efforts to
obtain a modification Of the financial
control scheme so as to make it more
acceptable to Turkish views. The
grand vizier, Ferid Pasha the report OF
whose dismissal was unfounded, has
informed M. Zinovieff, the Russian
ambassador that the scheme in its
present shape is too unpaIatable. The
grand viZier offered to agree to the
esta adjustment of four new civil agents
with the same functions as the existing
agents of Austria and Russia but the
Ambassador declared that no alteration
in the demands of the powers was pos
sible. TeWfik Pasha, the foreign min
lister. also tried to enlist the sympathies
Of the German and Italian ambassa-
doris but his efforts We're equally futile.
The unanimity of the powers, in
Guiding Germany. as TO the necessity
for compelling full acceptance of the
demands appears to be complete and
diplomatic circles are satisfied that the
Porte before long will realize that in
face of this unaninlity there is moth
ing to be done but bow to the will of
Europe.

Marquis Ito Says Japanese
Have Been Embarrassed
By Report Of Their Treating
Corea as Conquered State.
Such Is Not The Case..-"We Accept Heavy
Responsibility He Says.

Seoul, Nov. 2S.-Marquis Ito. in sum-
ming up the Corean situation, dwell
ing uron the trust placed by foreign
powers in Japan, by allowing that gov
eminent free hand the responsible
ties Of Japan to the natives and the
fact that the peninsula would not be an
Eldorado for Japanese spoilsmen. said
to The Associated Press, today:
various irresponsible newspapers
have greatly embarrassed Japanese by
writing of Corea as a conquered state
where the Japanese We're free to do
ANYTHING irrespective of the. rights OF
foreigners as well as the natives and
that the Corean people We're not to be
considered.
This has aroused suspicion among
the Coreans
The Emperor Of Japan sent me to ar
range a new treaty, to which the EN-
perer of Corea agreed. although the
proposition met with some opposition
from other sources.
although Corea has transferred her
conduct of her foreign relations to To-
llio, she retains control of her internal
administrati ton.
I'VE accept a great trust and heavy
responsibility and the foreign powers
consent to the new arrangement.
THE American government has al
ready announced the withdrawal OF its
legation and others will follow, but
America warns us not to amuse the
natives. 1t is probable that the Japan
csc will advise those in control of CO.
rean departments of the government
but they will not be connected with the
management.
"The Japanese government or its res
ident general will deal with questions
relating to foreign affairs, but it is not
vet known who will be appointed res
ident general.
However, those Japanese'Hho expect
that the coming of this representative
will signalize drastic or decisive meas
ures for the exploitation of this coun-
try, disregarding all the rights OF the
native will find themselves mistaken.
1--WE wish to benefit, ourselves, but
our greatest return will be derived from
insuring the welfare of the people for
whose destinies we now stand respon-
