HONOLULU, Oct. 25.--Fifty sup
posed lepers out of the first hundred
examined by physicians at the island
of Molokai have been declared nom
leprous and probably will be freed.
The re-examination of these unfortu-
mates was made under a resolution
passed by the last legislature, and the
astounding results of the first five
score cases has caused hope to run high
in the hearts of the 875 outcasts that
The examining physicians declared

that these fifty never had the disease
and that others certainly were not
lepers now, since searching bacterio-
logical examination had failed to re-
veal any trace of the scourge.
Those examined recently were the
first to take advantage of the resolu-
ton granting them a re-examination,
and now it is expected that many hum
dred others, all who have not yet shown
the distressing symptoms of later
stages Of the disease, will at once ap-
ply for the privilege.
While the law was framed to give
the benefit of any doubt to the outcasts,
the news that so large a percentage
had proved non-leprous has caused a
sensation here as well as upon Molo-
kai. the most dreaded island of the
group.

there any necessity for it.
1t is true France must submit to her
duties upon exports to the United
States, but so long as it does not dis
criminate against her she can have no
serious objection.
DipIomaticaIIy Silent
While NJ. Jusserand is automatically
silent as to the course he is under in
structions to follow, there is reason to
believe that his purpose is to make the
best of the situation and to secure the
minimum tariff rate for French prod
ucts entering the United States in re-
turn for smallest possible amount of
concessions of similar reduced rates of
American imports into France.
The ambassador has this considerable
advantage, that France can shade her
concessions, while the United States
must grant the minimum rates on all or
none of the French products.
If Senator Aldrich in his address in
France correctly represented the ad-
ministration, it would not be necessary
for France to secure the remission of
the maximum rates on all of her i'm
ports into the United States.
1t Could Be Done
MI that would be necessary for her to
Go would be to satisfy the president
that she is practicing no improper dis
crimination against the United Statese
and that might be done even by the re-
tention of maximum rates of tariff on
a considerable number of articles which
now enter France fro mthis country.
If the president can be convinced that
such is the fact there is no doubt that
he would be willing to issue the procla-
nation required to admit French goods
and products to the advantages of the
minimum schedules of our new tariff
act, and that is believed to be the pres
ent purpose of the French ambassador.
Few American products no weiljoy
the minimum French tariff rates, such
as canned meats, fruits, pork, coal, oil
and Porto Rican coffee, so that the
French government has much to offer
for the concessions she asks, and it will
be the business of the ambassador to
get the most he can for what he can
offer
