Thoburn, who started for Belllngham to investiKate the conditions of the Hindus who had landed there, did not go further than Seattle, wnere ne re mained but a few days. Owing to the state of his health Bishop Thoburn was compelled to return to his home, after a brief stay and investigation in Seattle. However, he says that he found that con ditions, so far as the Hindus are con cerned, very greatly exaggerated in the newspaper accounts. "Arriving at Seattle." said the Bishop yesterday, "I was informed that some of the Hindus had come from Bellingham, but for some time I could not get trace of them. I walked the streets and even asked the police where they were, but until I applied to a Christianized Jap anese I could not find them. The Jap anese took me to their quarters. They were very glad to see me because I could talk to them in their language, and they crowded about me. "I had been under the impression that they had been shlpped,into this country. In their own country the Hindu is paid from 5 to 15 cents a day, and I could not understand how these men could have obtained the money to pay their way to America. I questioned them closely on this point, and how they got money to , come on. and they insisted that they had i raved It up In various ways, but I was not entirely aatlafled. It has been against the custom of the Hindus to leave their own country, and In the past when -hey have done so they have lost caste at home, but that custom is now being 1 broken down and they are going to all countries of the world. "It had been reported that 900 had landed at Bellingham, but the group I questioned at Seattle declared that not more than 150 came, and that generally the newspaper reports of their treatment had been greatly exaggerated and mag nified. At Seattle the Hindus said they had been wen-treated and had attracted no particular attention. "At home they are not given to drink ing, and are a loveable, peaceable class, but when they get here they cannot stand up against the vices of civilization, and oon fall. At Seattle a number had been drinking, and were before the Police Court. This is because they are made the victims of the saloonmen, and not from inclination or habits of their own. "It is my judgment that these people are better off at home than here. They are not strong enough to do the hard work of unskilled labor, and the climate Is against them. They cannot physically stand work on the railroads in this coun try for they have not the endurance. These men I saw and talked with at Seattle are not the ,highest nor most in telligent type, but they were not beggars nor In want. "I think the . American Government should take steps to prevent the Hindus from coming here in large numbers. The Consul General at Calcutta should be Instructed to see that none start for America until they have passed a test of physical and mental qualifications. The tendency is to ship off the unfit, but if a system of careful scrutiny were es tablished at Calcutta It would prevent the shipping to this country the undesirable who are better off at home. I don't think there is any danger of these peo ple ever endangering the laboring in terests of this country, but they are bet ter off at home than here. They can not, stand against our civilization." Biahop Thoburn, was .com,pelled to cut short his Investigation and return on account of his health. For the past six months he has been under orders of his physician, and while going, about in f Tat tle soon became exhausted. However, he has suffered no serious consequences from his trip. He hopes to look up the few Hindus who are In Portland, and later may be able to take a trip to Brit ish Columbia. He lived for more than 45 years among the Hindus and is very much concerned in their welfare. . LIGHTING AND. HEATING. Today Is the day you Intended calling at The M. J.

WORK FOR CITY ATTORNEY MUST PASS tPOX QUESTIONS AFFECTING CONDUIT. Many Points Have Arisen That Must Be Settled Before Wires, Mains and Pipes Can Be Laid. Members of the commission recently created by order of the City Council to consider the practicability of a municipal conduit system held its first meeting yesterday. Legal questions affecting the rights of the city in the proposed sub way and the ' manner of its construction were referred to City Attorney Kava naugh and until an opinion Is received from that official no further steps will be taken towards installing the system. City Attorney Kavanaugh has been re quested ' to solve some knotty problems that are Involved In the city's proposed action. " He will pass on the question 'of whether or not the city during the last 10 years has surrendered any rights it now desires to exercise by permitting property owners to utilize the space be neath the sidewalks for private purposes. He will also give an opinion as to whether or not the city can appropriate the space beneath these sidewalks for the construction of a conduit for the ac commodation of all telephone, electric and telegraph wires together with gas and steam mains. At the same time he will pass on the city's ability to compel corporations to place such wires and mains in such a conduit and at the same time share the expense of constructing the system. It was voted by the commission to defer any further action in connection with the conduit until an opinion on these ques tions is received from the City Attorney. In the meantime it was decided to hold a conference with the interests that will be affected and invitations were issued to the different corporations to attend a meeting and discuss the subject. This meeting will be held at the call of Mayor Lane. ' ' It is the opinion of Mayor Lane that the city should proceed with the con struction of the' conduit that has been proposed and - force all corporations to use It and at the same time pay a pro portionate assessment of the cost of con structing and maintaining the system. Commissioner Greene doubted the right of the city to exercise this authority but it was the opinion of Commissioner Vaughn that the city in so proceeding would be acting within its authority. He believed that a sufficient rental could be charged and collected from the various corpora tions using the conduit to provide an amount large enough to meet' all Interest charges on the bonds that would be Is sued for constructing the plant and at the same time create a sinking fund from which the bonds could be redeemed sub sequently. The commission decided to install the proposed conduit system in the district between Twelfth street and the river and between Yamhill and Gllsan streets. Mr. Vaughn said he would ask the Council to pass an ordinance appropriating funds to meet the expenses of a consulting en gineer In preparing plans and specifica tions for the proposed system.
