Eight leaders of Chinese clubs were
examined by District Attorney Charles

suance of the investigation he is max
ing into the charges of protection
fund" said to be exacted by the police
from Chinatown gambling dens. Stem
ographers took down the testimony,
and it will be Transcribed and presented
to the grand jury tonight No hint of
an organized movement to hold UP the
celestials was discovered, though Flick
ert went into the matter exhaustively.
One witness said that once an unknown
youth had come to him and declared
money, but that he had heard no more
Of the matter, and the money never was
paid.
Sergeant Jayne was searching for
the mysterious Nee Toy, we'll as Lee

when the subpoena was served upon
him, and he decided to say nothing
until after the hearing tonight.
Mayor Mccarthy and Fickert both
reiterated yesterday that they would
bend every effort to discover whether

NO FRUIT CULTIVATION

With the exception of pineapples and
melons, scarcely any fruit may be said
to be cultivated in this colony. For a
few years grass and weeds are cut
from around young fruit trees, and
then they are left to luxuriate under
the gentle influences of this fertile soil
and genial climate. Although Tahiti
oranges are of fine quality. there is not
an orange grove or orchard of any sort
in this island of 400 square miles. The
orange may be seen growing, like
other fruit trees, along the highways
or in the woods. There is an unfail-
ing supply of wild plantain in the
mountains, though the men may some
times have to go as far as 10 miles for
ii, some of them being able to bring
down 200 pounds of fruit balanced on
a short pole across the shoulder, which
is the native fashion of carrying any
thing of weight Mango, avocado and
breadfruit trees grow along the streets
and roads or elsewhere, attaining a
diameter Of from to 8 feet Cor more)
and a height of from 40 to so or even
70 feet. The natives make long dug
out canoes from the trunks of the
Spondias dulcis and breadfruit trees.
In the Papeete market plantain is al
ways and bananas sometimes sold in
punches as cut from the plants; bread
fruit and cocoanuts, in punches of from
4 to 10 or IL each; oranges, in large
baskets, or in strings made by fasten-
ing the stems in plait of bark In such
manner that the oranges stand out
on all sides close together; alligator
pears papayas, mangoes, bananas, GUS
tard apples, guavas, lines and other
fruits are sold in long handled baskets
quickly made of the blades of cocoa
nut leaves. The price of fruit, which
varies somewhat with the season, is
generally higher than it was few
years ago. though, on the whole, fruit
is considerably cheaper than in the
United States but high price is
sometimes asked even for fruit that
grows in great abundance.
The Tahiti chestnut which is five OF
six times as large as the American
variety, Is also sold roasted and opened
on the market. A popular article in
market is what the natives call poi
made by mixing mashed bananas. plan
tain. or breadfruit with powdered ar
rowroot to form a dough which Is
baked in banane leaves on hot stones
and then, while still hot, stirred in the
rich milk obtained by squeezing grated

WEATHER PROVES SAFE
TOPIC FOR WRITERS
Only Subject That May Be Dis
cussed With Impunity

The weather is a subject that will
bear discussing at any time Also it
will bear watching all the time. Like
the poor it is always with us, but un
like the poor, 1t isn't sensitive to scorn.
We are seldom satisfied with it, yet we
can't get rid of it, and couldn't live
without it, says the New Haven Palla-
dunn. We may live without papers and
live without books; we may live with
out gimlets and live without leather
but there's no use in trying to live
without weather. You can't do it. The
weather has absolutely no regard for
law or logic. 1t is no respector of per-
sons, parties. picnics, clambakers or the
yeracity of its own prognosticators. 1t
will stand for all sorts of abuse-and
gets it, In fact the weather is about
the only topic that may be discussed
editorial1y or otherwise. without get
ting somebody mad and pesuading him
that he's got a kick coming. That's
why this is written.

POPULATION DRIFTS
To SMALLER CITIES
Urban Growth Largely Confined
to Places of Less Than
$4,000 Persons
Unofficial Analysis Shows Com
pariSOn of Rate of Increase
and No Loss

WASHINGTON, Aug. 29-Unof1cial
analysis of the returns from the thir-
teenth census on cities thus far an
nounced reveals that the increased rate
of urban growth for the last decade
over that of 1890 TO 1900 has been con-
fined largely to places having a pop
ulation OF less than $4,000
While universally there has been a
healthy increase, in a large majority
OF cities exceeding $4,000 the rate of
the previous decade has not been main
tanned. In no instance so far has an
actual loss OF population been shown,
and present comparisons are only on
the rate of growth.
The population of So cities of more
than $4,000 has been officially an
nounced- These are somewhat more
than one-fourth of the estimated total
number Of such cities in the country.
INCREASE IN BIG CITIES.
-Four announcements cover cities of
more than 100000 people. They are
St Louis, with 6S7,029, or an increase
of 19.4 per cent, as compared with an
increase of 27.3 per cent as shown by
the census of 1900; Pittsburg, with
533,905, or an increase OF 1872 per cent,
as against an increase in 1900 of 81
per cent; Buffalo. with 423,715. an in
crease of 20.2 per cent, as compared
with S7.S in 1900. and Detroit, with
4s5,7s6. an increase of SO per cent as
compared with SS.3 per cent 10 years
ago.
decidedly better average is shown
for the nine cities whose population
ranges between 100000 and 400. 600.
These are:
Denver with 213,3s1; ST. Paul, ga,
744; Providence, 324,326; Kansas City.
24S,381; Jersey City, 267779; Washing
ton, 331,06s; Newark, 1853; Cincin-
natl, 364,646, and Milwaukee with 37S.-
S57 For this group the average growth
amounted to 1873. as compared with
an increase of 26 per cent in the 1890
1900 epoch.
SMALLER PLACES BETTER
The mean for the 10 cities of between
100000 and 100000 is favorable to the
1890-1900 period to the extent of al
most per cent, the average for
1900 being 3o.7 per cent and that for
1s00-1s1o. SO per cent Oklahoma City
and Schenectady, n. Y, have been ex-
cluded from this calculation because
of the abnormal increase in both

kogee. Okla, and Flint, Mich, are
eliminated for the same reason that
Oklahoma City and Schenectady are
taken out of the $4,000 to 100000 class.
Because of their high figures they
would run the average up to an un-
wonted extent.
But even without them the showing
is altogether in favor of the last CEN
sus. OF the cities OF this class, there
are 10. With Flint and Musko-
gee out the mean growth is almost As

same places in 1s90-1s0O was 25 per

There is any amount OF things

I think. it is perfectly possible to
combine q. full knowledge of the
evils which exist not only with a
determination to cut out those
evils. but with full realization of
our great advantages.
Two things struck me while 1

which symbolized hope.
The second thing was that almost
every man whom I met on the other
side and talked with to any extent
would ask me anxiously about some
feature of business or political cor
ruption in America. Every reac-
tionary, every opponent of free in
stitutions, hailed with sardonic
laughter every instance of corrup-
tion as proof of our plan for a
democratic government was an
