TARIFF.

Emphssizi the Importance of In
sisting upoa sductiOns in the duties
upon manufactures as well as upon
raw material, Senator Oummins, o.
Iowa, leader of the republican "pro
gressive," yesterday evening issued
a statement, which is accepted al
representing the views of at least a
majority of the progressive" rePub'
licsn senators relative to the present
situation with regard to the tariff bill.
Previously Mr.. Oummins had been
in consultation for two hours with the
president, and an exchange OF views
had passed between Mr.. Oummins and
others of the 10 republican senators
who voted against the tariff bill In the
Senate.
The announcement Is evidently In
tended to meet the idea that the presi-
dent and the downward revisionists
wonld be content with free raw material.
"I indorse every word Of the statement
recently mace by the president and
earnestly hope that he will be successful
in bringing the conferees to his views, ="
says Mr.. Oummins. He then calls at
tention to the fact that especial emphasis
has been placed on the so-cslled raw
materials"
The insurgents do not limit the fight
to free raw materials. Senator Oummins
attacks the WOODEN and cotton schedules,
and declares they cannot be defended.
He also opposes lumber and structural
steel rates OF the tariff bill, aud de-
clares that the progressives Insist on re-
duced rates on manufactured articles "a
we'll as free raw material.
1t is known that Mr.. Payne does nc.
like some Of the schedules 10 the Sens e
bill, and that he has been unable to get
concessions that he has sought. He Ia
particularly dissatisfied with the cotton
schedule Of the Aldrich bill, and has laid
down certain demands. II these are not
needed, he may or may not bslk. II he
does, there will be trouble.
The tariff insurgents" in the House
who are opposed to free raw materials
met again yesterday and adopted resolu.
tions protesting against the plan. They
appointed committee to confer with
Representative Payne concerning the
matter.

TRESPASsER IN A TREE.

About eleven o'clock last Wednesday
might, when Mrs. Joseph Hawkins and
her two daughters, living on the west
side of Fairfax street, near Franklin,
were preparing to retire, they saw a
mau in an apple tree in the yard. The
woman gave an alarm, when the ties
passer descended the tree and scaling
the fence was soon out of sight. In hia
flight the man dropped his hat which
contains initials that may lead to the
Identification of the owner. The
branches of the apple tree extended to
the back windows of the house, which
the man evidently intended TO enter
after the members of the family re-
tired.

HIS EASTER PRAYER.

They knelt in church on Easter Day,
And she was fair and small,
With soft blue eyes and golden hair,
And he was dark and tall.
She wore gown of silken gray,
And on her graceful head
A dainty bonnet gray with plumes,
For they were lately wed.
Her fancy wandered from the book
To where in stately rows
The lilies on the altar steps
Displayed their fragrant-snows;
But he-he prayed with all his might
(Not printed plea, at that
For means to pay the bill for her

It IS To LAUGH

All of us like to laugh heartily. and
it makes us feel better and tears away
the cobwebs on our brains and we feel
better to take up our tasks. The Ellie
ford company had only fair house at
the Orpheum last night but if our thea
tire goers knew what they were missing
they would have been there, that is if
they appreciate something high class
in farce comedy. All Due to Diana"
was the bill, and in the hands of the
Ellefords it was one big scream from
the rise OF the first until the fall of the
last curtain. Every member of the
company seemed to be at their best as
the performance was equal to any ever
given on a local stage, and every one
of the cast seemed to receive individual
applause You must be hard to please
if you can't go and laugh yourself tir-
ed at the Elleford performance OF
Diana And then there was the
Osborn children. Gordon presented a
sort of George Cohan dancinng turn
that made a great hit and Sophie in
the song And Mother Hasn't Spoken
to Him Since" was a little bundle OF
sweetness, and all of the audience
wanted to go up and hug her They
closed the turn with new Indian in
termezzo which gave them both a
chance. Ray Collins presented the
latest patriotic song MY Yankee Sail
or Boy with illustrations and it went
with great applause. If you feel like
having a good laugh tonight and get
ting more than the worth of your
money drop in and see All Due TO
Diana at the Orpheum and you won't
regret it. The last performance is to-
night and tomorrow night the Offering
is "A Woman's Secret or Doris" a
production that made Efie Bllsler ia
nous.

LOAD SUGAR
With Speed
CARGO FROM RAILROAD TRAINS
AND THREE 1NTER-ISLAND
STEAMERS FOR THE KOREA.

The scene at the railroad wharf this
morning was an unusually busy one.
The Alameda was at the mauka end of
wharf No. taking in sugar for the
coast and next came the c. A. Thayer,
which was discharging lumber, Then
came the Korea, which was being load
ed with sugar at such a rate that 1t
seemed as though her enormous hull
would soon be filled, but the job was
a big one to handle. Not only were
the engines of the Oahu railroad bring
ing in trainload after trainoad to be
placed on board the steamer but the
Inter-lsland steamers Helene, Like
like ana Noeau were all alongside dis
charging into the Korea's hold, which
seemed always ready for more.
The Korea's sailing, which is at 5
o'clock this afternoon should be the
cause of a very large gathering at the
Hackfeld dock. She carries a full list
of passengers in her cabin, a fact that
has become a usual thing of late on
Captain Sandberg's vessel, which is
noted here, in San Francisco and in the
Orient for her comfortable accommoda-
tions and for the steadiness of her huge
bulk, no matter how heavy a storm
may arise
The local stevedores did good work
yesterday in discharging 100 tons of
| freight from the Korea in a little less
than five hours and a half of actual
working time. The loading of cargo
was kept up all night and all the $500
tons of sugar will be on board early
this afternoon, when the steamer will
be breasted over to the Hackfeld DOCK
The deck of the Korea was swarmed
with Custom House officers this morn
ing. Smuggling of cigars, silk or
opium would have been hard trick to
pass on the Federal men who watch
both wharf and Inter-Island vessels to
see that the customs laws were kept
! inviolate. A much stricter watch is
being kept on all vessels from the
Orient than has been customary in the
| past, on account of the new opium
instructions which have been issued by
the Treasury department.

WHAT'S THE USE?

Some people null around the house
all day Sunday without thinking of
the grandeur outside They are the
ones who do not know of the pleasures
contained in a trip to Haleiwa, They
know nothing of the beauties of ride
over the Oahu Railway along the surf
beaten shores in the shadows of the
hills that skirt the coast, The cost
of the trip is so much less than the
value of the satisfaction that it is not
worth considering.

Premature Explosion of
Dynamite Is Cause
of Fatalities

Windber, Pa, April 10.-Seven min
crs were killed, several slightly in
jured, and many narrowly escaped as
a result of a premature explosion OF
dynamite in mine No. 81, of the Ber-
wyndWhite Coal company, one-half
mile from here last night -
The explosion occurred just as the
dny shift was going off duty. and that
the death list is not larger. Is ac-
counted for by the fact that the men
were near the mines mouth The
dead and injured were part of a party
of twelve miners, who, throughout
The day. had been working at the
fourth heading, drilling holes prepara-
tory to setting off shots. Lying about
them were about 200 sticks OF dyna
mite The usual warning had been
given, and it was thought the men
were on their way out when the cur
rent was turned on There were two
explosions, the second one causing the
fatalities, Clouds of dust and smoke
poured from the mines mouth, en-
yeloping the retreating figures groans
and means came from its depths. AS
soon as it was safe to enter. rescue
parties made their way to the aid of
the entombed men. All OF the bodies
were recovered.
