Armies and navies are expensive:
we need farmers more than we need
soldiers: We need merchant ships
more than we need battleships. The
civil war demonstrated that It does
not take long to make a frst-class
lighting man Of the American citizen
and there are 100000 such ready
to fight in a quarrel with a stranger
The only power that is at all likely to
give US serious trouble is Japan. and
she will not undertake it until she
shall think herself strong enough to
order all the other white folks out Of
her neighborhood. That will be gener-
ations hence and need give us no con-
cern. Our business is to make money,
not to engage in war. We have an i'm
mense territory right here in the re-
public thas IS yet virgin and the de
mand is for laborers. not soldiers.

DEFENDS CHI.
NfSF OFFICIALS
Minister Says They Do NOT Issue
Fraudulent Certificates.
Only Per Cent of Chinese Seeking
Admission to United States Have
Papers Made Out by the Chinese
Government Replies in Detail to
Representative DENLY.

Washington, April l7.-sir Chem
tung LANG Cheng, the Chinese minist
err, has taken issue with Representative
DENLY on the question OF the respond
bility for the issuance OF fraudulen
certificates of admissionTto the United
States. Mr.. DENLY stated to the houss
committee on foreign affairs, during
the hearings on the Foster bill, amend
ing the exclusion act, that the fact that
80 many Of those certificates we're found
to be fraudulent was pretty fair evil
dence of fraud by the Chinese officials.
To this charge the Chinese minister
has replied in letter which has been
made part OF the record in these
hearings.
Daring the three years he has been
in charge of the legation here, the min
lister says, he has kept record of every
certificate that has been issued in the
provinces Of Kwang Tung or Fukien to
Chinese subjects departing for the
United States, the Philippines or Ha-
wall; that the emigration from all oth-
er provinces is insignificant, and that
527 certificates represent the total num-
Der issued. However, he says the fig
ures of the immigration for these three
years show the total number of appli-
catants for admission bearing certif-
Gates numbers $500. The number
bearing certificates from the Chinese
government, he says, is but 8 per cent
of the total number seeking admission.
"Where did the go per cent get their
'ertifcates?" he asks, and then proceeds
70 answer the question by stating that
lnder the regulations of the Immigra-
ion service officials in the following
titles and countries are permitted to is
ue these certificates; Vancouver, Vic
oria, New Westminster, Ottawa, Cuba,
herman protectorate of Kiautchou,
Guatemala, Hawaii, Hongkong, Jalan,
tokkaido, Formosa, Mexico, Philip
line islands, Portuguese province of
lacao, Society islands, Straits Settle
nent, Trinidad and Venezuela.

LAVA cooLs AND ASHES FALL,


Naples, April l3. --- Frequent detou

gradually enlarging. The most con.
soling news is that the lava Ia cooline
on all sides.
| Ashes are falling everywhere, houses
are collapsIng and burying their occu-
pants. Roads near the volcano are no
sooner opened than they are closed
again. The heaviest fall is now over
somma, Santa Anastasia, Ponticelli
and other villages in section opposite
and distant from the city.
The people have recovered from the
panic of yesterday, are less sullen and
downheartcd. 1t is largely due to the
presence OF the king and queen. They
are mingling freely with the populace,
doing everything in their power to allie
viate tho condition OF the injured and
mingling their tears with those who
have lost friends or relatives.
The inhabitants of this city are en-
during the yellow gray atmosphere of
yesterday, which is even more oppres-
sive than before. The popular costume
of those who can afford it consists OF an
automobile coat, cap and goggles, which
enables the wearer to maintain semb-
lance of cleanliness, but the people
generally have to be contented with
paper masks and raised umbrellas. The
drivers OF trolley cars are wearing
masks of some transparent material
under the visors of their caps. More |
shops we're opened today and the city
is slowly resuming its normal life.
The latest reports say that 243
houses have been damaged at Portiei,
1876 at San Giovanni and Teduccio,
432 at Kesina and 1000 at Tore del
Greco.
1t is impossible to determine the ex-
act number of buildings demolished at
Tore Annunziata, 1t is estimated that
about 5000 houses in all have been
partly or entirely destroyed

the mountain all the houses are dam.

Duke of Aosta. The government heads |
the subscription list with 500, 900. X
The amount collected up to the present a
time is 5000, 900. a
Firemen have been sent from PaIer- t
mo, Sicily, and other places to the vii n
ages in this vicinity which have suf-
erred the most from the fall of ashes
