MAGOON OBJECTS
 TO COOLIR LABOR
THINKS THEY ARE OF LITTLE VALUE TO UNITED STATES AS LABoRERS ON THE PANAMA CANAL.

New York, October 1.-Charles E. Ma goon. the retiring American minister to Panama, and governor of the canal zone, arrived here today on the steamer Pan anna from Colon. He was accompanied by Joseph w. J. Lee, American minister to Ecuador, and Thomas w. Cook, collector of revenue for the canal zone
 Governor Magoon said conditions on the isthmus are most favorable. Work on the canal is progressing rapidly, although 1t is still in the preliminary stage.
 Governor Magoon is not favorably im- pressed with the Chinese as a factor in the construction of the canal
 There are at present from two to three thousand Chinese on the isthmus," said Governor Magoon, "and I do not think they make desirable laborers. They can not be depended on as much as can the Barbadoes or native negro. As soon as the Chinaman has earned enough money he starts shop of his own and the govern ment loses a man. The good results that have been attained in several parts of the world by the use of coolie labor has been due to great power exerted by the coolie contractors. This would almost be sys- tenn of peonage, that the United States would not tolerate. If we were to employ coolie labor we would have to depend on the Chinaman as an individual, and in my opinion that would not do, as the coolie will work as little as possible under con- tract. I feel certain that the Chinese would not be a beneht to the United States
 Another passenger on the Panama was Richard Stage, who is here on behalf of the conductors union of Panama. MT. Stage said he would make a protest to the President against the railroad men of Panama working more than eight hours a day.

ADAMS TAXES LIFE
 THOUGH WEALTHY Friend Attributes Act to Hound ing of Newspapers F0RMERLY Y RAN POLICY SHOP Had Been in Poor Health Since His Release From Sing Sing,
 Where He Served Ex-
 tended Term.
FORMERLY Y RAN POLICY SHOP

New York, October 1.-Albert J. Adams, who made large fortune as the head of the policy gambling combine, shot him. self in the head last night at his home in this city. His dead body was found to- day.
 Adams had been in poor health since his release from Sing Sing prison, where he served term for having conducted a policy game in this city. Soon after his release he became president of the Guana- jauato Amalgamated gold mine companies. He was reported to be the financial back CT of the firm of M. G. Sage &, Co. of this city and New Jersey, the offices of which were raided in August on a conl- plaint that the company was conduct ing a bucket shop MT. Adams son, AL bert J. Adams, Jr, however, declared that the only Albert J. Adams connected with the Sage company was himself.
 The fatal shot was fired while MT. Adams sat in chair in front of a mirror in his room in his apartments in the An sonia The bullet passed through his head and embedded itself in the wall.
 Rounded By Newspapers.
 "Al' Adams took his life primarily be- cause of the bounding he has received at the hands of the newspapers.' said w E. Stokes. When I went to Sing Sing, sent there by the governor to see what could be done for Sam Parks, I found Parks on hospital cot. Nursing him was Al Ad- ans, who had known me for years. He said sWhU dnn't q n wifi the governor to get me out of here? You know I am here under an indeterminate sentence. Think of the grief to my fam fly. I know you will use your influence with the governor. He will do something for me. If I remain much longer here will die l told him I could do nothing for him unless he agreed to sever his connection with policy business"
 MT. Stokes said that Adams agreed and was released from prison.
 Later, MT. Stokes saId, Adams told him that he had suffered losses amounting to SS0O,000, of which $2OO00 was lost in Union Pacific stocks. According to MT. Stokes Adams told him that he had loaned $2 OO0,- 900 to his son, that he had loaned s4O,OOO to trust company and that he had much money invested In stocks from which he could realize nothing at present
 About six months ago, MT. Stokes said Adams appeared to be greatly depressed and MT. Stokes asked if he was worried by business troubles.
 NO, it is not that" replied Adams, ''but the newspapers and magazines have been bounding me so long about the policy and bucket shop business that I can stand it no longer and if there Is not a let up will kill myself. I can't stand If old ma n .. 1 there has got to be stop to 1t. I am an
