UTTER TARIFF THREATS.
"Americans Have More to Lose,"
SAYS Newspaper.

Berlin, Germany April 2S.-Unmis-
taxable threats of retaliation on the
part of the German government I'M
less congress modifies certain fea-
lures of the Payne tariff bill are being
uttered by business men representing
German interests affected. Special
objections are being raised by manu-
facturers of textiles, gloves and
toys, who make strong plea on be-
half of their industries. The inf1u-
entail Tagliche Rundschau says:
Among the increased duties pro-
vided for by the bill are a number
which strike especially at German
trade What is far worse, the pro-
visions of the bill in regard to the
of imports give the New
Yorff tariff officials abundant oppor-
tunity to hinder the importation OF
articles. Should the bin
really become law the German gov
eminent doubtless will remember it
and also the maximum tariff which
provides for increases up to 100 per
cent. America, however, needs US
more than we need it. The Amerf-
cans have more to lose"
Hope is expressed by exporters
that the bill yet will be altered ma
terially before its passage.

While many people have every
reason 70 believs that winter VAS
here recsatly. yet from IN aatron-
omical and scisntific standpoint
that season did not arrive until
December -, when we had the
longest night Of the year. and con-
sequently the shortest day. We
were supposed to have less work
from sun to sun on Wednesday
than OH any other day of the year.
On that day the Earth received its
fewest hours of sunshine on its
northern half, and old Soils rays
were the most oblique in striking
its surface. these being the two rea-
sons for the cold weather that We
experience at this season. For q
matter of fact we are at this time

PORTO RICO NOT ANT|-AMER|CAN

Those who feared that the recent
political crisis in Porto Rico might
lead to a kind of tropical repetition of
the Bunker Hill incident, are somewhat
treasured by DR.. Lyman Abbott who re-
Gently made trip to the island to
study the political conditions at first
hand AS noted in these pages on May
%, the Porto Rican House of Delegates
in attempting a species of coercion in
connection with the passage of appro-
priation bills, forced the Porto Rican
situation very prominently upon the
attention of the Washington Govern
ment and the American people general
ly. President Taft sent a special mes
sage to Congress advising that the
powers of the Porto Rican Assembly
be curtailed, and Congress has since
passed favorably upon his suggestion.
Newspaper dispatches and private ad-
vices before and after this unpleasant
ness intimated a grave spirit of unrest
and revolt among the native Porto RI
cans and a strong anti-American feel
ing.
DR.. Abbott devoted most of his time
learning the Porto Rican's point of
view, and trying to verify these anti
American rumors. Writing in The
Outlook after his return he reports
that there is practically no feeling
against the Americans in the island.
He says:
Il could not discover any signs of it.
Those with whom | cOnversed either
denied its existence or attributed it to
others who in turn denied it. A mer-
chant in one of the coast towns init
mated that | should find it in the coffee
districts, but | met no more cordial
supporter of the American government

PRETTY DANCE
ON ST. LOUIS
CAPTAIN GLEAVES AND OFFICERS
ENTERTAIN HONOLULU FRIENDS
ON BOARD CRUISER.

The dance given last night by the
officers of the st. Louis was one of the
prettiest of its kind seen in this city.
1t was of very informal character and
the guests were not many in number,
owing to the small space for dancing
on board the cruiser, but all there en-
joyed a most pleasant evening, the
usual pleasures of dance being in
creased by the courtesies of Captain
Gleaves and his officers who saw that
all enjoyed themselves in every way.
Dancing was commenced at about
$50 and kept up till II o'clock, when
a dainty supper was served in the
wardroom, which is one of the contest
to be found in the navy. A delicious
punch was served on deck The wea-
Their was perfect for such an occasion,
being cool enough to make dancing
most enjoyable and the quarter deck,
rooted in with huge flags, formed a
most attractive dance hall. The floor
was as near perfection as could be ask
ed, the white deck being treated liberal
ly with wax till it was as good for
dancing as any of the local floors
Sonny Cunha's double quintet furnish
ed the music.
There was no attempt at formality,
and as the guests arrived they went
below to improvised dressing rooms
and laying aside their wraps, imme-
diately returned to the deck where the
dance was in progress. A number
of the more fortunate ones obtained
glimpses of the officers quarters, which
are provided on a most liberal scale
on the St Louis. The ornaments
drawn from the various countries
of the world, proved pleasing novelties
to the local people who had the OPP
potunity of seeing them.

the investigation has been made
during the last six or seven months,
so that when Surgeon General Torney
makes up his annual report he will
nave much data to prove the preva-
lence OF the hook worm among soldiers
enlisted from southern states. These
recruits, passing through the army de-
pot at Fort Slocum, N. Y, were exam
ined to the number of 149 and 100 OF
them were infected with the parasite.
West Virginia, Virginia, North Car
DINA, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida,
Alabama and Tennessee all sent infect
ed recruits.
While the hook worm was so preva-
lent Nin only two instances was the
anaemia it caused sufficient to lead to
their rejection. After being treated
all of the soldiers gained in weight
and improved in physical condition
generally.
HALF THE RURAL RECRUITS
SUFFER.
Following this investigation of re-
cruits it was discovered that uncina-
riasis was a common disease through
out the south. It is estimated by army
surgeons that so per cent of the re-
cruits in the army today from the rural
districts OF North Carolina, South Car
olina, Georgia, Florida Mississippi, AL
ALBANIA and Louisiana will show hook
worb infection. Southern soldiers
who have been in the army several
years show a tendency toward the eli
