New York, July 11 A meat famine la possible here within a few days if the widespread strike of the Butchers' Union continues.- There Is large amount of meat on hand in the numer ous packing houses about the city, but as 3,500 members of the union have been ordered to Quit work today there will be no one to cut up the supply. "Roughly speaking," said the pres ident of a leading firm of packers with large interests in Chicago, "1 should say New York has about one week's supply. By this I mean a nor mal week's supply. Of course, if ship ments are to be cut oft for an indefi nite period, the stock on hand might be stretched out and made to do for two weeks or bo, before we would have an absolute beef famine. Practically all our beef comes from Chicago and other points affected by the strike, and the cutting off of this supply means famine if the trouble continues. Even If the strike does not las more than two or three days we shall feel its effects more or less. If it lasts a much longer time we shall simply have to stop eating beef." The strike has already caused an advance of one cent a pound In the wholesale price of beef here, while re tailers generally have increased their demands. The employers in this city declare they will make an effort to get other men to take the places of the strikers. suffrage when they received it. The class antagonism which exists In the Islands may be In a measure traced to the fact that the right of suffrage has been granted to the natives. To thrust upon a people of their stand Ing the power to vote was unwise, from my point of view. It is difficult for a people low In the grade of civlllsa tlon to have any political sense. The Hawallans have the fundamental lea son of governing yet to learn, and that Is to act with reference to the welfare of a large community.'' ARRIVES AT ST. HELENA.

Members of the Maritime exchange today learn with much interest that the mammoth steamship Minnesota will attempt to break all steamship records from the Atlantic to the Pacific ports, and par ticularly that of the battleship Ore gon. The Minnesota is still at New Lon don, where her sister ship, the Dakota, was built, and Is applying the finish lng touches in preparation for her 14,000 mile voyage. The Oregon's rec ord has been considered the greatest ever made around Cape Horn, requir ing from March 19 to May 24, in 1898 to go from San Francisco to Key West The extensive advertising given that trip made it one of the most famous of sea voyages and James J. Hill, who Intends his mammoth steamship for the oriental trade from Seattle, will make the new speed attempt to gain a similar advertising. One of his lieutenants, who is here, says that Mr. Hill believes if a start ling smashing of records for the big carrier can be made, It will do more to attract attention to the trans-continental method of shipping oriental freight than would many thousands of dollars' worth of publicity In other di rections. With this object in view, no expense will be spared to smash all steamship records. Selected steaming coal is be Ing put into the bunkers of the big ship and special firemen and engineers have been engaged for the voyage. Marine men here say the season may be taken as favorable for a record at tempt and predict that Mr. Hill's ob ject both as to record breaking and advertising will be attained. ARE NOT GOOD CITIZENS. Govrnment Erred in Allowing wai ans Right of Suffrage. Ha Berkeley, Cal., July 13. Professor Bernard Moses, of the department of history at the University of California, and a former member of the Philip pine Commission, declared while lec turing on dependencies at the sum mer session of the university, that the natives of the territory of Hawaii should not have been given universal suffrage by the 'American government. He stated that a serious governmental blunder had been committed by- the American people In granting the Isl anders such a fanchlse. During the course of the lecture Professor Moses said: "The Hawaiians have never had any training in government, and they were totally unprepared and unfitted for Victoria, B. C July IS. The little British Columbia sailing canoe Tllll kum, In which Captain J. C. Vosa, at que time famous In connection with the opium smuggling business, Is cir cumnavigating the globe, has arrived safely at St. Helena, making that port May S last. She has now traveled 28,000 miles without a serious mishap, and It Is fully expected will complete her adventurous voyage with similar fortune. Much Interest was evinced In Cap tain Slocum's voyage In his little boat, the Spray. The Spray was of IS tons, howver, whereas the Tllllkum Is of but t. One of the main features of Captain Voss' daring trip Is to demon strate the value of a sea anchor of his own Invention, and which has thus far redeemed all the promises made for It. The Tllllkum Is a dugout canoe carved 43 years ago by an Alaskan Indian, whose son sold It to Captain Voss. She la schooner rigged, with three short, slim masts; 30 feet long, with foot beam over deck, and a depth of t.t feet. The long voyage was begun from this port on May II, 1901.

Farmers of the Waldo Hills, aa has been the custom for several years past, will hold a meeting on Saturday evening next for the purpose of forming a pool of all of the grain of that dlBtrlct this year. It Is estimated that the crop of fall sown wheat this year will amount to 75 per cent of the average crop, and the spring grain will not do better than 50 per cent. These farmers sold 72,000 bushels of oats last year to one firm in Albany for a handsome margin above the regular market price. They have virtually established their own oat market and dictate their own price. Night Was Her Terror.
