PURSUED HUNT RELENTLEssLY
officials Angered at Alleged ul-Treat-
ment Of Igorrotes

The bureau of insular AFFAIRS, acting on
a request from the Philippine government.
has pursued with relentless vigor DR.. T. K.
Hunt, who at one time was governor Of one
of the Igorrote provinces, because OF al
legged mistreatment of a band OF Igorrotes
whom he had brought to this country In
January Of this year for exhibition
purposes. Hunt within the past month has
been tried at Memphis, Tenn, on two
separate indictments for larceny and has
been convicted upon both. receiving in one
case a sentence Of one year lacking day
In the workhouse and in the other a SEN
tence of six months in the same place OF
confinement. From these convictions Hunt
has taken an appeal
The Igorrotes had been in this country
several months before the insular bureau
officially was made aware OF their presence
However, in June last the bureau was in
formed by party who had witnessed the
performance In Chicago that the people
were ill-fed, ill-hOused, iE-clothed and re-
quired to give an exhibition which was not
only misleading as to the general character
OF the inhabitants Of the Philippines, but
was brutal and disgusting in it's incidents.
An official investigation confirmed the
statements. and also the fact that Hunt
and his associates had systematically not
only withheld payment of wages, but also
had taken from the Igorrotes, by a search
Of their persons, any moneys which they
had received by the sale OF souvenirs. The
bureau failed to recover from Hunt the
moneys thus obtained and Immediately took
steps to get possession Of the Igorrotes, but
before this could be accomplished Hunt fled
from Chicago with a portion Of the band
and was followed successfully to Milwau-
kee, Minneapolis and Winnipeg, Manitoba.
before they were recovered and brought
back to Chicago. The remainder were To-
Gated at Syracuse. N. Y. and also brought
back to Chicago. With the exception of
SIX who were detained as witnesses, the en-
tire party was returned to their homes last
July.
The bureau Of insular affairs feels that
In point Of civilization the Igorrote bears
the same relation to the great mass of Fill
pinos as the Apache Indian does to the
mass OF the population of the United
States.
The attitude Of the bureau in cases If
this kind was expressed today by one Of its
officers. who said that It had been deter
mined that such fragrant and criminal
abuse of persons who are In q sense wards
OF the government shall not be permitted
and that this offender shall receive just
punishment for his acts
It was said that Hunt and his associates
realized between $4,000 and $4,000 out Of
this band during the short time they were
In this country.

BUILDING AT JAMEsrowN.
to Ask Congress for APP
preparation.

Pursuant to action taken yesterday after
noon at q meeting Of the subcommittee Of
the joint COMMITTEES of the Board Of Trade,
the Business Mems Association and the job
bers and Shipper Association, which has
charge Of the proposed commercial exhibit
at the Jamestown exposition. Mr.. Wood
worth Clum. secretary, was engaged today
IN interviewing the fifteen members OF tho
general committee. His purpose, 1t was ex-
planned. was to secure the signatures OF The
committeeman to paper requesting the
District Commissioners to ask Congress Tor
an appropriation Of $4,000 for the purchase
Of a site and the erection thereon o. q
building At jamestown for the municipal
exhibit Of the District Of Columbia It Is
also proposed to have in the municipal
structure Q sort Of cosy corner or reception
room for visitors from this city.
It was stated at tho meeting yesterday
that the commercial exhibit will be placed In
the manufactures building as originally In
tended. Mr.. Thomas w. Smith. who has
just returned from a visit to the exposition
managers at Norfolk. reported that they re-
fuse to lease door space for the municipal
exhibit in the Manufactures and Liberia!
Arts building, because the exhibits would
not be products Of the people OF Washing
ton.
If it is decided to erect building at
jamestown the plan Is to make 1t q replica
OF the White House and locate 1t on the
plaza with the several state buildings.
1t was the belief Of Mr.. Smith that the
solution Of the problem would be that the
District. with such appropriation as Con,
gress would vote for the purpose should
erect and maintain its own building among
those Of the states upon the grounds MT
Smith stated that he had yesterday present
ed the matter to the Commissioners and
they now have 1t under consideration.
Mr.. Smith reported that he had obtained
from the management Of the exposition
forms Of application for space and the con-
tracts with the exhibitors will be called
upon to sign. These were read over and
discussed, and the secretary OF the commit
tee was directed to see the exhibitors. OBJ
tain their signatures and the first pay
ments for space and report to the commit
tee. With this accomplished, the commit
tee will be In position to reserve the space
in section IT of the Building OF Manufac-
lures and Liberal Arts, on which 1t holds
an option.
The members Of the subcommittee. all Of
whom were present yesterday, are Messrs.
Thomas w. Smith. r. N. Harper, Monroe
Luchs, Arthur Moses and Woodwork Clum.

at Lourdes-EMcacy Of Prayer.
PARIS, December CDR. Baraduc, lee
turing on the curative force observed dur
ing the last great pilgrimage to Lourdes
and the scientific physiology Of miracles,
declared that the chief factor was the
force Of prayer ascending from 10000 pill
grims which caused rain Of mercy to
descend in the form of tiny drops the pho
tochemical action Of which produced the
same impression on ten Photographic plates
inclosed in photographic paper. which were
exposed in the grotto Of Our Lady of
Lourdes.
Two plates similarly exposed in Piscina
showed an entirely different impression. DR..
Baraduc displayed these plates and also
negatives made at Lourdes but not sub
mitted to the action of the curative force.
He also displayed negatives made at q
pleasure fair in Paris. The latter gave no
result, which DR.. Baraduc ascribed to the
non-polarized action of the vibrations of
the multitudes' thoughts, which were not
concentrated as at Lourdes.
