ALL PEOPLE WERE KILLED Fund Raised for the Volcano Suf ferers, by New York City Can not be Used For Any thing Else. j I SEW YORK, May U.-Mayor Mc J Clellan. after looking up the law says that it will retire twumuoua4 - 1 amendment to permit the city to spend the money raised to aid the sufferers in the Mont Pelee disaster. About $1400 was sent in and the names of the sub scribers are lost. As all the people near Mont Pelee were killed and there was no call for the money it was not sent forward. Money in the custody of the city to be spent for a specific purpose cannot be spent for anything else. The money was raised about four years ago, when Mayor Low wa at the city hall, and someone lost the names of tne givers. The money has been on deposit for the last four years, and is drawing in terest at the rate of 2 per cent "I am informed by people in the finance department," said the Mayor yesterday, "that we are likely to have the Martinique fund with u indefinite ly. I also am informed that even at 2 per cent the fund will double itself every forty-four years, and that in onej thousand years this modest fund, if I left undisturbed, will amount to the tidy nm of sli.nOn.fXm.owV j It ha been suggested that there may ' be a possible claimant for the fund in j vli ,.r ii, -. ;i i ' .,v . ..r,., K-t cmuHeii in the jail at Martin.,ue at the time ' PURE IN TrtEf?

MANILA SOON TO HAVE FINE HARBOR Deep Water Port Assured by Govern ment Expenditure of $6,000,000. The Citv of Manila will soon have one of the dfc-epe-st and best protected harbors in the Orient, according to H. C. Ie Land, Government harbor engineeer at that city. Mr. De Land came over on the British steamer Empress of In dia and lartdkd at Victoria, B. C. He is on a 30-day leave of absence. "The harbor of Manila," he says, "ha undergone a complete change, and when finished all steamers that ply the Fa- cifie will be able to east anchor and tie at the wharf. The breakwater, which foPmerly prolected the mouth of the p R. h been extem,pd far mit ' . . fh , , ... . ,0 f . . already been obtained near the mouth of the Pasig and 10 feet along the old water front. Dredging is in progress. The contract for this work was let to the Atlantic. Gulf 4 Pacific Dredging Company, and when the harbor is com pleted it will have cost the Government about $6,000,000." The natives of Luzon Island, Mr. De Land says, are rapidly adopting modern methods of agriculture and using up-to-date machinery, especially in the culti vation of rice, which, under Spanish rule, was grown under the most primitive means. The people are handicapped by a serious shortage of money, and a commercial bank which would make a business of loaning money in advance on agricultural crops i needed. There is no such institution there at present, and the most exorbitant rates of interest are charged by broker. "The annihilation of the barbarous band of Moros by the American troops several months ago wa not a massacre in the common ene of thr term, and was absolutely necessary to preserve onler on the island." he said. "Since the battle, in which the whole band was tninate,, it nn, j)(.en discovered t,,at )1)e 0tlaws h1(j fl Uim, trai, ,)V which they could have escaped unseen but, faithful to their religious belief, they stood their ground and fought to the la-t. because they believed that the oulv wav to get to heaven was to die killing Christian WITHYC0MBE SPEAKS TO LINN REPUBLICANS Receives Hearty Demonstration From Voters at Albany Meeting.
