PLEASE CLEWS

Henry Clews of New York, in his
special letter OF June %. takes the fol-
lowing cheerful view of the outcome OF
both the presidential nominating con-
ventions:
The result of last weeks Republican
convention was decided setback to
extreme radicalism. and this week the
Democratic convention has acted like
wise Ii does not mean that as be-
tween conservatism and pregressivism
the latter. has been defeated On the
contrary. it means that not few of the
reforms desired by the people are
shortly to be granted by one party or
the other, since each party has strik-
ing features OF resemblance and'each is
outbidding the other in the race to catch
votes.
If the conventions held within the
last two weeks mean anything. they
mean that reforms are to come by evo-
luton and not by revolution. Political
leaders recognize that important
changes are coming; changes that will
benefit the masses and consequently the
nation And they must also recognize
that these changes should be made
gradually; that a sudden or violent
disruption of established institutions
and methods would throw our indus
trial system into chaos to the injury
Of all and the benefit of none.
Happily the two conventions have
materially cleared the political atmo-
sphere. While the actual results of
the election can not yet be foretold
with certainty, the encouraging fact
remains that extreme radicalism has
received conspicuous check in both
parties and that the sober second
thought of tho American people is
averse to what would appear to be rev.
dictionary proposals.
AN important danger has thus been
removed from business calculations.
Those at the head of Industrial and
commercial affairs will be able to for
mulate plans for the future with re-
newed confidence. and as a result we
may expect a steady Improvement in
business from now on. unless there
should be an unexpected disaster to
the crops.

LEADER slain

WASHINGTON, d. c., June 20. -
Confirmation of the death of General
Estenoz, the Cuban rebel chief, has
been received by the Department of
State and tits believed in Administra-
ton circles that the negro revolt is
practically over and that there will
be no further disturbances. The dis
patch to the State Department from
the Legation at Havana stated that
General MOnteagudo had reported
that the government forces had killed
Estenoz near Songo, while the Consul
at Santiago telegraphed that the rebel
leader was slain yesterday noon in a
battle at Micara, which is between La
Maya and Mayari 1t was also re-
ported that 150 rebels had been killed.
Reports from Caibarien, Antiila, Ba-
racoa and Cienfuegos were that those
districts were quiet.
Information from Mexico today also
indicated that the end of the revolu-
ton in that republic was near The
Consulate at Salina Cruz reported
there had been less lawlessness there

PLAGUE. RATS
ARE FEARED

With one of the largest cargoes of
coal ever; brought TO the Hawaiian
Islands, the British freighter Kalibia,
from Japan, was boarded by DIR.
James, representing. the United States
Public Health and Marine Hospital
Service, of the, harbor this morning,
and soon after the steamer was or
dered alongside the quarantine wharf.
The Kalibia in command of Cap
tain John Stewart, is said to have
come from an infested port, before
taking on the big supply of fuel at
Moi, Japan.
According Dr. Trotter, ordered the
steamer to the quarantine wharf
there to undergo thorough fumiga-
ton with the end in view OF COM
plete determination of rats.
The Kalibia will be under deten-
tion for the remainder of the day, but
it is predicted that the vessel will be
turned over to the Inter-Island Steam
Navigation Company late this even
ing or early tomorrow morning. and
be ready for the discharge of the
shipment Of 645e tons Japanese coal.
According to the official log main
tanned by Captain Stewart, the Ka-
libia sailing from Norfolk, Va, many
months ago, called at Durham, South
Africa, thence proceeded to Calcutta,
and Bombay, India. From there the
freighter visited Singapore and
thence to the Japanese ports for coal.
The Federal quarantine authorities
at this port have been advised that
plague exists in several Far Eastern
ports at the present time. Dr. Trot-
ter states that the policy to be pur-
sued will probably call for more or
less fumigation of vessels hailing
from the Orient, while infectious dis
eases prevail there.
The Kalibia is large type of
ocean-going tramp, with a length Of
40 feet, breadth so feet, and depth 81
feet. The vessel was drawing nearly
25 feet of water on entering the
harbor this morning.
