In Hawaii.
Washington, May 10. Large op
portunities for the introduction of
American machinery and the invest
ment of American capital are offered
by the peace agreement Japan has just
effected with China, A provision
made that China shall hereafter be
open to the introduction of all forms
of modern machinery, and that such
machinery shall be admitted free of
dutv.
Modern tools are included under the
head of machinery and mechanical de
vlcen. so the American nlow and other
implements and tools will enter China
free of duty. It is stated cotton ma
chinery will be brought at once into
extensive use, thus enlarging the de
mand for the raw cotton of the south
ern states. : The Chinese use so muoh
cotton that the emperor granted a
monopoly of using cotton machinery
to the viceroy pf the southern pro
vinces of China. He has since pro
duced large quantities and has pre
vented the British and Americans at
Shanghai and elsewhere from using
similar machinery. Now, however,
the viceroy's monopoly is at an end
and American machinery. is expected
tp be freely introduced there.
The nrivileges secured bv Jartan are
enjpyed by the world at large, as the
most favored nation clause compels
China to give other countries the same
favors extended tp Japan.

pf white Cubans from Santiago now,
Vhereas up to a week ago the report of
numerous departures for the field were
incorrect. Nearly 1000 members of
the Fial Armonfoa and San Carlos
Clubs, have gone into the country.
The governor of the islands is alarmed,
but is decided as to the expediency of
sending to Spain for .'more, troops.
General Salciedo thinks it - useless to
bring over any more raw.unacclimated
levies until " the season changeeC
It is proposed to call out those Spanish
exHJOldiers who have served their
time in the rarmy,-: being given dis
charge papers, and enlisted in Cuba.

oughly discussed. This was made
necessary, by two or the members ap-
I pear in g in bloomer costume one eve-

I rest refused to ride with them. After a
spirited discussion a vote was taken,
which resulted by a narrow majority
: in favor of skirts.. When a rider goes
out alone she. . can ; wear what she
' pleases, but when she appears with the
club she must wear the regular skirt.

income-tax question was reached. It
is presumed that the custom of the court
will be followed, and that one of the
justices in the majority will be assigned
the work of preparing the opinion of the
court, ine justices in the minority
may eacn write a separate dissent, or
not, as each individually prefers. The
consultations are held in secret, and
no announcement of the contusion
reached is ever made prior to the
promulgation from the bench, but
some circumstances connected - with
the session rather point to the vote of
Justice Jackson having been cast in
favor of the constitutionality of the
law. The principal reason for this
statement is the fact that after consul
tation of all the members of the court.
a private conference was had between
Justice White, Harlan and Brown, all
in favor of the law at the previous
hearing, and Justice Jackson. Chief
Justice Fuller, who favored upholding
the law in part, was not present. The
manner of Justices Harlan and White,
the most strenuous supporters of the
law in the previous conferences, also
lead to the. inference that they felt
they were in the . majority. It
is regarded as almout certain that
the decision will be announced when
the court reassembles May 20.

Present reports, however, are based
on the fact that Tuesday last Dickin

FEjUSBEP OF STARVATION,
-Terrible Condition of a Tribe of Budson
r BayIndlans.. .
Quebec, May 11. Official report
from the vicinity of - Fort Calmd, a
Hudson Bay Company's trading post
on Ungava bay, show that two-thirds
of the entire tribe of Montagnais In
dians trading at the post have perished
of starvation iu pue season, aver IGOin
number. As usual among Indians,
the men died first, so that a number of
unfortunate women and orphans were
left helpless. The few white people at
Fort Chimo and the officers and crew
of the Hudson Bay Company's Eric,
wintering there, took up a collection
to clothe the survivors, who were as
destitute of clothes as of food. The
Canadian government has . now taken
action, which, it is thought, will pre
vent another such : catastrophe, by
placing a sum of money at the disposal
of the Hudson Bay Company for tha
relief of the Indians and' the Eskimo
in the event of another severe winter.
The, cause Of the destitution this win

JAPAN AND TBE CANAL.
Negotiations Pending for a Treaty With
Nicaragua,
Tokio, May 12, The recent achieve
ments of Japan have led her to turn
her attention to securing a treaty with
Nicaragua, in which she would secure
marked privileges in the Nicaraguan
canal. The subject has been under con
sideration at Washington between Dr.
Guzman, representing Nicaragua, and
the representatives or japan.- At -one
time the basis of a treaty seemed to
have been reached. Dr. Guzman feared,
however, that the United States might
have cause to object in privileges be
ing accorded to Japan. . -.Thisobjeotion
was met .by the representatives of
japan' by a proposition that Japan
should receive the same privileges as
the countries with which Nicaragua
has treaties, except the United States,
it being expressly recognized that the
United States is entitled to superior
advantages because of proximity to
Nicaragua. , The negotiations stopped
at this point, and the treaty has not as
yet been concluded, nor is it being
further urged for the present, although
no doubt exists among ' officials that a
satisfactory treaty will be made, giving
Japan privileges .in the canal com
mensurate with her growing power as
a military and commercial nation.'
TBE REICHSTAGG STUBBORN.
The Antl-Bevolution Bill Defeated by
Striking oat Important Clauses.
Berlin, May 11. In view of the
rejection by the reiohstagof paragraph
111 oi the anu-revoiution diu, wnica
praotloally sealed the fate of that
measure, nooooy was surprised wnen
the reiohstag today, after rejecting
paragraph 112, refused to further dis
cuss the bill, and all its amendments
were withdrawn. Then the entire bill,
paragraph by paragraph, was rejected,
without debate, and the reichstag ad
journed. Though the rejection, of the anti
revolution bill did not surprise any
body- who had followed the popular
agitation against it, and although the
rejection yesterday of paragraph 111
hopelessly emasculted the bill, the
discussion of the other sections was
permitted to drag along for a time, for
the government did not intend to
withdraw the measure, though con
tinuance of the debate only promised
further humiliation for tne govern
ment, therefore the coup de grace ad
ministered to the unpopular bill today
was a relief to all concerned.

BLUE BUCKET MINES.
An Old Pioneer Who Still Bopes to Dis
cover These Rich Deposits.
In conversation with an old nionMr
yesterday who arrived in Oregon in
1845 we learn that his faith has not
abated in eventually finding what has
been termed bv those imrnicranta who
took the Meek Cut-Off the Blue
Bucket mines. He recollects well
while passing through a dry gulch of
picking up the bright vellow chunlre
of some kind of mineral, and says that
a bucketful could easily be procured.
When they camped at night they took
the nuggets out of their pockets and
beat them between stones and proved
they were perfectly malleable. But
they did. not know where they were,
winter was approaching and they were
anxious to c reach the settlements.
Weary and footsore, with sickness and
death as constant visitors, they had
little inclination to think about raid.
and their only desire was to reach the
Willamette valley and rest after their
toilsome journey There are certain
landmarks which our informant dis
cerned in the Harney country a few
years ago, and some day he calculates
to spena some time in locating the
pot where the precious metal covered
he ground in as crreat nrofuainn aa
pebbles do a rocky beach.

there are signs of a revolution in the

flesh-eaters for long years, and have

sion that the Deity did not create one
animal to be- killed and devoured by
another. They say that vegetables art)
the only digestible food, and that here
after they - will never "touch : any
meat- within i- the enclosures - of

Yesterday was all that could be de

a brass band from the Locks, which,"
