NO CONFIDENCE IN GOVERNMENT Harab Measures Said to Have Been Taken When Revolutionary Lead ers Submitted Peace When Rights Shall Be Recognized. SAN JOSE, Costa Rica. Nov. 9. The reason why General Vargas--Santos, Mil itary Director of the Colombian revolu tion, did not go to Panama to attend the conference arranged to take place today on board the United States battle-ship Wisconsin between representatives of the Colombian government and the revolu tionists, is because the government of Co lombia, according to advices received liere, intended to limit the subject of the conference to the acceptance of the de cree of amnesty recently promulgated by the President of Colombia, Senor Marro quln. General Santo Domingo arrived here last month, bearing peace proposals from the Colombian government to Gen eral Vargas-Santos. He said the purpose of his government in calling the peace conference was to establish an effective and lasting peace, which would harmonize the Interests of the several political par ties concerned in the revolution. The matter was discussed between General Vargas-Santos and the Colombian repre sentative, who exchanged a number of cablegrams with the Colombian author ities at Panama, with the result that General Vargas-Santos accepted the pro posals made by General Santo Domingo, and promised to attend the conference at Panama with Generals Perdomo and Sal azar, of the Colombian government, and General Herrera, of the revolutionists. At this point in the negotiations General Vargas-Santos received advices to the ef fect that, notwithstanding the proposals of the Colombian government made through its representative here, Colombia purposed limiting the conferees to the ac ceptance of the decree of amnesty. Gen eral V ilIfciit-,3cAiH.UO urciCUllUil i "uoiu n accept such a proposition, and decided to withdraw from the conferenoe, which, he says, he considers futile. At the same time the Military Director of the Colombian revolution learned that the Colombian government had issued or ders to General Tovar to Imprison the revolutionary general Uribe-Uribe and sen tence him to death without mercy. This order was given in spite of General Urlbe Urlbe's capitulation to the government forces, which occurred at Rio Frio, Co--lombla, last month. The receipt of this news, which is considered in Colombian revolutionary circles here to be a shame ful violation of public faith, further in duced General Vargas-Santos not to at tend the peace conference at Panama, and he Issued orders to the Colombian revolutionary army to continue Its war fare. General Vargas-Santos declares he Is willing to make peace, providing the Co lombian government' will recognize the civil and political rights of which the Liberal party has been deprived for the last 17 years, but not otherwise. After Revolutionary Fleet. PANAMA, Colombia, Nov. 9. The; Co lombian government gunboats Bogota and Chuclto left here yesterday on a trip along the coast In search of the revolu tionary fleet. It is reported that Captain Marmaduke, of the Bogota, has received instructions to engage the revolutionists in a decisive, battle if he finds it possible to do so. TROUBLES OF HAWA'lIANS Officer Arrested for Embezzlement of Public FnndN, HONOLULU, Nov. 1. (Correspondence of the Associated Press.) James H. Boyd, Territorial Superintendent of Public Works, has been suspended from office by Governor Dole and arrested on a war rant charging him with the embezzlement of $1650 of public funds. The ousting of Boyd makes vacant a third important ter ritorial office, and has involved Governor Dole in. another legal tangle as to his powers of suspension of officials. Boyd was in San Francisco when his chief clerk, B. H. Wright, was arrested on account of alleged embezzlements ag gregating over $8000, and when Treasurer Wright was accused with absconding with $18,000 of public money, and Auditor- Aus tin was suspended under grave charges. Boyd returned here October 22 and was handed a letter from the Governor, notify ing him that Secretary Cooper would re main in charge of his department until certain irregularities had been explained. Boyd's explanations were the payment of $6307 into the department which had not been accounted for. Governor Dole ad vised Boyd by letter that his explanation of where the money had been and how it had been used during the interval when it was not in the public treasury was "en tirely unsatisfactory." and asked for an immediate resignation. The superintend ent's' reply was a note stating that he would resume charge of his office. As in the case of Auditor Austin, Gov ernor Dole placed police on guard to keep Boyd out of his office. Boyd appeared at the Capitol building and attempted to en ter his office. An officer kept him out, and later he returned with his. attorney and some witnesses and renewed the ef fort. There was a violent struggle in the corridor of the building, and then Boyd .gave up. He will ask the courts for a writ of mandamus to compel the ( Gov ernor to allow him to resume charge of the office, claiming that, the Governor has ,n6 power to suspend him without the con sent of the Senate. 1 The public works department Is the most Important under the territorial gov ernment, carrying on large contracts and employing many persons. The depart mental difficulties leave the administra tion in great embarrassment, owing1 to doubt of Governor Dole's power to sus pend an official. It Is understood that the Governor has laid the situation before President Roosevelt, and may receive eome instructions as to how to proceed. -Jn the meantime Secretary Cooper is In charge of the Department of Public Works. The Supreme Court has rendered a de cision reversing Judge Little, of Hllo, to the effect that the territorial law Impos ing a stamp tax on certain documents is constitutional. Judge Little held that the territory had no power to. Impose such a tax, but the Supreme Court declares that the organic act gives the territory such power. United States Attorney Breckons has begun 'suit to condemn the schooner Julia E. Whalen, in which Captain Rosehill re cently made his trip to Marcus . Island, In the hope of getting the island away trom the Japanese. W. C. Peacock, the owner of the schooner, is the defendant in the action, and he is charged with having sworn that he is an American citizen, in order to get American register for his ves sel, when in fact he was a British sub ject. The sum of $2500 or the vessel is demanded of him as a forfeit. Last night saw the end of the last week of the most earnestly contested political campaign Hawaii has seen.

O. Perry, the negro whx pawned the watches taken from the murdered women, Miss Clara Morton and MIrr3 Agnes McPhee, declared today that Alan G. Mason is the man from whom he received these articles. Perry was taken to the Jail in East Cam bridge, where Mason, under arrest on the charge of killing Miss Morton, is con fined, pending a hearing In the Cambridge court tomorrow. In one of the jail cor ridors Perry positively identified Mason as the man who had given him the two watches. Mason by neither look nor word betrayed any knowledge of having seen Perry before. When questioned by Sheriff Fairbairn, Mason merely said: "I do not know this man. I never saw him before." . During the day Chief Ryan and Officer Argy, of Belmont, talked with Perry and later State Officers New, Dunham, Dexjer and others took Perry to jail. The officers were shown into the room where Mason and six others stood in line. Perry walked straight up to Mceon, who was second in position, and pointing his finger at him, said: "This Ls the man -who gave the watches to me to pawn." He was about to leave the room when Sheriff Fairbairn asked him if he would not like to talk to Mason, in order that he might make himself sure that Mason was the man. Perry replied there was no need of that, he knew who the man was and had known for a long time. On heing returned to his cell. Perry was. confronted by three newsboya and they identified him as another newsboy. Another visitor at the police station was Mason'3 attorney. He was accompanied by a woman. This woman did not see Perry, but it was understood that she had been produced by the defense in the hope of showing that Perry himself, or some other negro, was the real "Jack the Slugger." She ls one of the women who were followed by a negro in Cam bridge several weeks ago. Mr. Wade places no faith in the state ment of Perry that it was Mason who gave the boy the watches. CRIMES IX THE ISLANDS. Three Burned to Death Murder by Agreement Cnpital Sentences. HONOLULU, Nov. 3. Correspondence of the Associated Press. A shocking tragedy, supposed to have been the result of Incendiarism, occurred here last Wed nesday evening, when the home of E. B. Frlel In Nuuanu Valley, was "burned to the ground, and his wife and 15-year-old daughter perished In the flames, while an other daughter, Mrs. Nigel Jackson, was so severely burned that she died in a few hours after fearful suffering. The fire is thought to have been incendiary, and Nigel Jackson, husband of one of the victims, is in custody, under suspicion of having committed the deed. Jackson had Just been sued for divorce. .The fire was discovered at about 2 o clock in the morning. Mrs. Friel and her daughter, Etta, were seen at a window just as the fire. was at Its height, with another younger daughter. The firemen below urged them to jump and the young est child did so, breaking her arm in the fall. The mother feared to make the leap, saying she was too heavy and Etta's last words as heard .by the little girl, who took the leap, were, "I will' stay with you, mamma." The refnalns of both were found amid the ashes after the fire nad burned Itself out. A remarkable story of murder by agree ment between two Japanese has been un earthed by the finding of a woman's dead body In a cane field on the Island of Maui. The victim was named Ichl. She Is al leged to have signed an agreement with one Fuglta Kachlta, whereby she agreed to leave her husband for him, with a further stipulation that If she failed to carry out her agreement Fugita had her permission to take her life.

AFFAIRS IN PHILIPPINES VICE-GOVERNOR "WRIGHT SAYS GOVERNMENT WORKS "WELL. Better Rule Now Than When Span ish. Were in Power Islands Have a Great Future. HONOLULU, Nov. 1. (Correspondence of the Associated Press.) The transport Sumner arrived here Octoberf 30, en route to San Francisco, with General A. R. Chaf fee and Vice-GovernSr Luke E. Wright, of the Philippines, on board. The steamer passed through a terrible experience In a typhoon soon after leaving Manila. She lost one of her boats and had several dam aged, and for a number of hours was In grave danger. In an Interview published by the Commercial Advertiser, Governor Wright had the following to say of con ditions In the Philippines and their fu ture: - "The developments following the Inau guration of the civil government of the Islands have been most satisfactory "We have now civil government almost every where, and the people seem to be learn ing its advantages. The system of pro vincial and municipal government has worked well. During the past year there has not been a single defalcation and very few thefts. The government is strictly one of civil service. "There is a degree of peace and safety in the Philippines now that was never reached under the Spanish rule. The Spaniards used to pay the brigands to keep the peace, and we have refused to continue this system. After the passage of the Philippines bill last year we estab lished the Insular J constabulary, and we now have 6000 of these police. We find that they are the best men for the busi ness, and they have cleared the provinces of lawbreakers with great rapidity. The service Is one which appeals to the na tives, for the police are chooen from the tribes where they must serve. "The future of the islands will be a great one. What, Is needed most are rail roads, and these may be built soon by American capital. There Is a trunk line on the Island of Luzon now under con sideration, and its building will help mat ters greatly." Governor Wright also said he deemed the return of the friars the best thing for the islands, and he expected that the pope would send a representative to appraise the church lands in the Philippines. TO SUPPRESS LADRONISM. Military Will Probably Help the Constabulary in Cavite. MANILA,, Nov. 9. The Government is adopting vigorous measures to suppress ladronism in the Provinces of Cavlte. Rizal and Bulacan. A zone- 'embracing these provinces and surrounding Manila, ls the scene of constant petty and some times serious, disorder. Severad armed bands, some of them numbering 200 or 300 men, are operating In the described dis tricts and have committed various depre datibns. They find a safe refuge In the mountains. The plan of the Government contemplates securing the assistance of the military, which has been Inactive since the end of the insurrection. The extent of the army's participation in the work of suppression depends upon developments. It Is probable that the mil itary authorities will request the garri sons to protect the more important towns, while the constabulary conduct the field operations. It is thought that martial law, in a modified form, will be declared and the privilege of the' writ of habeas corpus suspended in Cavlte Province, which has been the home of the ladrones for ages. , -Military, control of Cavlte Province ls not contemplated. It ls Intended that the military and cixil authorities shall work In conjunction. The belief is held that advantage has been taken In some parts of the island of the complete Inac tivity of the soldiers, and it is thought that the use of the armv by the civil authorities will have a beneficial effect.' The vigorous campaign against the la- drones conducted by volunteers in Bula can Province has resulted In driving many refugee bandits Into Rlzal, where the campaign is now opening. General Davis ls co-operating with Gpvernor Taft. He has strengthened the, garrisons in Rizal and. Is supporting and assisting the native constabulary which is now af fected. The operations In Cavite Prov ince will commence shortly. WANTS TO BUILD RAILROAD. English Syndicate Asks Privileges In Luzon. MANILA, Nov. 9. The English syndicate which operates the Manila-Dagupan Rail road has applied for a franchise to con struct a railroad, from Guinuinto, Prov ince of Bulacan, to Cabantuan, Province of Nueva Eolja. The syndicate contem plates later the extension of the road from Cabantuan to Apprlon on the north coast of Luzon. It wants the Govern ment to grant a right of way and to make certain tariff taxes and concessions for a term of years. The Commission ls prepar ing to enact a railroad law and It will not grant the franchise applied for by the Eng lish syndicate until Americans have had a chance to examine the line of the pro jected railroad and submit proposals. The railroad line to Apparrl will be a part of the Luzon trunk line and the granting of a franchise for its construction ls there fore a matter of Importance. The Philippine Dissenters. MANILA, Nov. 9. The dissenting ncftlve Catholics who last week took possession of the church at Pandacan, Manila, have now surrendered the edifice to the Ro man Catholic Church authorities. Other native dissenters seized a church near Cavite and held services there today. It ls thought that the question of property rights Involved In these seizures will be taken Into court. Cholera Continues in the Islands. MANILA, Nov. 9. The cholera contin ues to -be Intermittent in different parts of the archipelago. The recorded total of cases ,1s 105.000, and of dearths 67,000. It is believed that the actual number of cases exceeds the recorded number by 20 per cent. CRISIS IN COAL STRIKE. Will Men Stand by Union Decision or Not? PARIS, Nov. 9. The government ls tak ing precautions to handle another out break on the part of the striking miners in case the decision reached last night to continue the strike shall be followed by violence. Troops were active In the. min ing regions throughout the day, but no serious disorders have as yet been re ported. The authorities bellevo that the crisis In the strike is near, and that the next 24 hours will settle the question whether the men will hold to their decision to continue the movement or straggle back to the mines. Following the decision of the miners' congress to continue the strike there were disorderly occurrences in Lens (Pas do Calais) last night. The cavalry charged repeatedly a crowd of la,000 riotous1 min ers and succeeded in preventing them from advancing. Considerable other .damage was done. At Courr!eres( Pas de Calais) houses of nonstrlkers were sacked and a number of coal wagons were burned. A clash between strikers and gendarmes and cavalry Is reported from Clermont Ferrand (Puy de DomeK It was riot at tended with serious results. From some mining centers It Is reported ,that some of the miners are likely to re turn to work tomorrow, In spite of the de cision of the congress to the contrary. It Is reported here from Denaln (Depart ment du Nord) that at a meeting of 2000 miners held there today It yvas voted to continue the strike. Denaln Is being patrolled by troops and Is quiet. FOREIGN STOCK EXCHANGE Berlin Disappointed Because Neve York Didn't Boom. BERLIN, Nov. 9. The bourse here ex perienced considerable disappointment last week because Wall street refused to boom up on the result of the eleptions and--because the Deutsche Bank's Increase of capital was only $2,500,000, the bourse hav ing expected an increase of $7,500,000. All bank stocks rose strongly until the actual figures of the Deutsche Bank's increase were published on Friday, when sharp reaction ensued. Yesterday almost all the bank stocks closed lower than they did the previous week. Professional speculators were more act ive last week and caused greater fluctua tions In quotations than Is usual. Attempts to entice outsiders to participate In trans actions was a failure. The market gave little attention to domestic, or foreign loans and its chief activity was indus trial shares, but in this department the tendency was not uniform. Iron and coal shares mostly declined several points. The RWne Westphalia pig iron syndicate was renewed yesterday. It is now said that the (forthcoming mu nicipal loan of Berlin will amount to $56, 250,000. London Waiting 6n Xevr York. LONDON, Nov. 9. The general outlook on the stock exchange last week was fair ly encouraging, but practically no busi ness was done. The American elections, the Improved iinanclal situation in Wall streets, and the excellent traffic reports of home railroads were ail quoted by the optimists as presaging a return of the market's activity, but -the net result was merely some small investment 'buying of the best class of securities. The fact ls the Immense amount of stocks of every sort, which is carried on borrowed money, hangs over the market and is only await ing a slight improvement to take profits and get clear. London wants New York to start the upward movement; until this is done, there will be little prospect of ex citement here. Money was fairly abundant last week, rates tending to be lower. TO EXAMINE TERRITORIES Senntorlnl Committee to See if They Are Fit for Admission. CHICAGO, Nov. 9. Senators Beveridge, of Indiana, Nelson, of Minnesota, Dilling ham, of Vermont. Bate, of Tennessee, and Heltfeld, of Idaho.' will leave Chicago to morrow night for Oklahoma, New Mex ico and Arizona to Investigate these terri tories' claims to statehood.

Mr. Dillingham arrived here tonight and Is awaiting the arrival of the other members of the committee. Senator Beveridge is chairman of the committee and until he arrives the other Senators' will remain idle. All of them are expected tomorrow and the first meeting will be held probably tomorrow afternoon.

TACOMA, Nov. 9. Dispatches from Skagway and Juneau give detils of a hor rible example, of witchcraft and supersti tion In the Hoonah Indian village 40 miles distant from Juneau. Though quiet and peaceable t,he Hoonah Indians are very superstitious, and nearly every year one or more suffers death violently. Several days ago the Indians took a man who was believed to be possessed of the devil and made him the victim of frightful atroci ties. .His ears were cut off and his body frightfully hacked in an- unsuccessful ef fort to drive out the demon. The victim was troubled, with epileptic fits, which continued. He was finally buried alive in the earth and his scalp cut off, inch by inch: Officers have hurried to the scene from Juneau on a special steamer. THE SICK AND -THE DEAD. Prominent Homeopnthlst Dead.

LONDON'S PAWNBROKER. The British "Uncle" Will Advance More T&au Things Cost. London Globe. We Imagine that few, If -any, of our readers are aware of what "mosklng" is, since even so experienced a magistrate as Mr. Shell was compelled yesterday to con fess to entire Ignorance of both the word and the practice which It represents. Mosklng is professional pawning, and there is perhaps no more remarkable calling pur sued in all London. The ordinary citizen whom stress of circumstances drives to eee'k assistance from the poor man's bank er never expects. to get the full value of his pledge, and recognizes that the pawn broker could not live If he did. But the mosker looks not only for the value "of the article, but for a profit pn what he1 paid ior it, apd the amazing thing is that he Sets it. There are, it appears. Jewelers who make a specialty of supplying the mosker with the articles he requires, and who get up their goods so carefully as to deceive even the very elect among "uncles." To such an extent had thla gone that one lawyer yesterday described it as a "well "inown custom of the trade," and certainly the results must be satisfactory" to their clients, for we find that the result of the police inquiries Is that obtaining a living by pawning these goods for more than has been paid for them ls a practice which quite extensively prevails. There is also an added refinement, which Increases our respect for the intellect 'though not for the morals of the mosker. It seems that It Is not professional to be contented with the profit made out of the pawnbroker. There must be another "turn" In the transaction besides that! The mosker, therefdre, who is really at the head of his profession, first pawns for 10s that for which he has given 5s, and then sells the ticket to somebody else for 15s, alleging that the pledge Is an unequaled bargain which Is really worth 20s, and Which only the avarice and obduracy of the pawn- WOODARD, CLARK & COMPANY DRUGGISTS Special !
