CHIEF JUSTICE CHAMBERS ARRIVES
Bus'iicss of Such a Nature that Ho Will
I'soli ihly Not Return All discs that
Ho Had Iteforo the Court Finished
A Chief Justice Ad Interim.
SAN FRANCISCO , July 29. Chief
Justice W. L. Chambers of Samoa ar
rived here yesterday on the steamer
Moana , accompanied by his family. He
Is on a four months' leave of absence ,
but says that his business in the United
States is of such a nature that he will
probably not return to Apia.
In an interview the chief justice said :
"All Is now quiet in Samoa , but I
cannot answer for the future. Both
Mataafa and Malietoa affect to be sat
isfied with the present arrangement ,
which abolishes the office of king and
vests the responsibility of government
in the consuls of the three powers. I
feel sure Malietoa is sincere in this.
Though fairly elected , and after elec
tion accepting the kingship , he never
had ambitions in that direction. As
soon as the commission arrived he
proposed to resign , a spirit which later
proved to be in accordance with the
plans of the commissioners , and I have
every reason to believe that he will
live up to his bargain.
"Mataafa Is ambitious. For many
years he thirsted for power and will
not be so easily satisfied. At the same
time he is a man of exceptional ability ,
is shrewd and I have never thought
the Interests of the natives would es
pecially suffer in his hands.
"Yes , my decision has been sustained
by the commission and it has pub
lished the fact in a proclamation.
"With respect to the future I can
say little. There Is the problem. In
its work the commission has endeav
ored to eliminate from the original
arrangement all features that have
appeared faulty or weak , Those sec
tions have simply been struck out ,
leaving nothing in their places. What
will rob the whole document of proper
effectiveness Is the tripartite treaty
under which It will have to operate.
I am sure that no government in
Samoa will succeed under such an
arrangement. The sooner the powers
see this and formulate some correc
tion the better for all concerned. "
Judge Chambers said he had finished
up all of the cases to come before the
court this summer. The commission
is empowered to appoint a chief justice
ad interim to act in case anything
arises before a permanent appointment
is made. Up to the time Chambers
left the commission had not decided
who the new man wouid be.
THE DEWEY HOME FIND.
Those "Who Deslro to Contribute Should
Do So at Onco.
WASHINGTON , D. C. , July 29. The
secretary of the Dewey home fund re
quests the publication of the following
statement :
There can no longer be any doubt
as to whether a home will be pur
chased by popular subscription for
Admiral George Dewey. At a meeting
of the national Dewey fund committee
today it was found that the aggregate
amount of cash actually received by
Treasurer Roberts is $16,700 , from a
total of over 23.000 subscribers. One
hundred and three subscribers gave
$10,000. The statement was made that
the $5,000 promised some time since
by the New York Journal would be
forthcoming shortly , bringing the grand
aggregate up to $21,700. The commit
tee agreed to close the subscriptions
before the arrival of Admiral Dewey
in New York in September , and then
to proceed , after consultation with the
admiral as to location , etc. , to pur
chase the home with whatever funds
they may at that time have in hand.
We will purchase the home if not
another dollar is received , so that vthe
question now is whether the patriotic
and generous people of the country will
permit the purchase of a home at the
nation's capital for the hero of Manila
with $20,000 or $30,000. Therefore
those who desire to contribute are
urged by the committee to contribute
at once. All contributions should be
forwarded to Hon. Ellis H. Roberts ,
treasurer of the United States , Wash
ington , D. C. , who will issue souvenir
receipts for the same.
CONFERENCE NEARINO AN END.
Some Important Matters to Bo I.cft to
Subsequent Negotiations.
THE HAGUE , July 29. The com
mittee charged with the duty of draft
ing the final acts of the conference
met yesterday morning with all the
principal delegates in attendance. The
impossibility was admitted of arriving
at an immediate understanding regard
ing the form in which powers not
signing the convention might adhere
to the decisions of the conference. The
committee decided to accept the pro
posal of M. Bourgeois of the French
delegation that this question be left
to be settled by subsequent negotia
tions and that the arbitration conven
tion remain open pending settlement
of the form of adhesion.
The plenary conference met in the
afternoon for final acceptance of the
arbitration convention with the pre
amble. The signatures will be ap
pended today after the closing of the
sitting of the conference.

The Three Million Dollars Given Cubans
Acts as a Plague ,
IT MAKES DISCORD AMONG THEM
Soldiers X.ower Unselfish Ideas In Hope
of Gain Working Classes In Havana
Cannot Kscapo From Filth A Delega
tion Visits Gen. Brooke.
HAVANA , July 27. In an interview
with General Gomez , printed in La
Lucha , the Cuban commander was
quoted as saying :
"Never has a plague more afflicting
fallen on Cuba than the $3,000,000 ask
ed from President McKinley for the
Cuban soldiers. The money has been
the cause of ill will among those who
by right and justice should be. eter
nally united.
"The history of the money is cu
rious. It was thought at first that it
ought not to have been received , as it
was a dishonor to the Cubans. The
aspect is changed now and it should
cause pain to see wandering through
Havana soldiers begging for what it
was supposed they would refuse with
serenity.
"The formation of the supplement
ary lists of persons incapacitated in
the war and the work of payment has
already cost $6,000. This money was
furnished by Governor General Brooke
as the Cubans do not possess the
ground upon which they tread. Those
who do not know the work and the
expense involved are naturally impa
tient and hold responsible some one
who in no way helped to get the money
nor asked any one to receive it.
"Those whose names appear on the
supplementary lists should not be
paid before those who are on the orig
inal list , so as to preserve order.
"As the money was the gift of the
American government , I am pained by
the interest shown by my soldiers , who
were trained to go hungry on their
march to liberty. The government
will pay them , but when is not cer
tain. Impatience will not further the
matter. "
El Diario de la Marina says editor
ially in today's issue that the working
classes in Havana are in bad condi
tion. The cost of living in the city
is very high , owing to the extravagant
tendencies of the upper classes having
raised prices. The upper classes have
been able to get money easily , the
paper says , on account of the natural
richness of the Cuban soil , but the ne
cessities of life , including the securing
of clean , comfortable houses , are out
of the reach of the poor , who , there
fore , are forced to live under bad , unhealthful -
healthful conditions , although they are
fairly well paid.
A deputation from Guines visited

ON AN EQUAL TOOTING.
Foreign Breeders Given a Chance at the
Cuban Ports
WASHINGTON , July 27. The sec
retary of agriculture has altered the
regulations recently issued for the
free admission of cattle into Cuba for
the next year , so as to provide for di
vision inspectors at Cuban ports in
stead of American ports , which was
originally contemplated. The change
is made at the instance of the war de
partment and is intended to permit the
admission of cattle from other coun
tries upon the same terms as from the
United States. The portions of the
regulations as at first drafted , requir
ing the stock to be graded and also
immune from fever , will be retained.
It is believed that these requirements
will result in the practical limitation
of the cattle to American stock , as the
South American animals would net
generally be graded and those from
Europe would not be immune as a rule.
THE SCHEME NOT PRACTICABLE.
Importation of American Cattle to Cuba
IVill Not AVork.
HAVANA , July 27. Senor Escalante ,

importing 50,000 American cattle to
Cuba is impracticable , on account of
the difficulty of acclimatizing the ani
mals. He asserts that 40 per cent
would die. The plan should be , he says ,
to import cattle from other sources
than the United States.
ONE FRENCHMAN SATISFIED.
The Consul nt New York Ilollovcs the
Treaty la All Ki&ht.
NEW YORK , July 27. Edmond
Bruwaert , French consul at Now York ,
says of the new reciprocity treaty be
tween France and the United States :
"I regard It as an excellent thing for
the United States. America was the
only country which did not have the
benefit of our minimum tariff. As the
manufacturers abroad are satisfied
with a profit of 5 per cent , the differ
ence between the maximum and mini
mum rates was sufficient to keep the
United States out of the French mar.
ket.
ket."France's
"France's annual importation of
manufactured articles Is about $280-
000,000 and the United States will get
a good share of this. Amerlca under
sells England In cotton goods in China
and there is no reason why it cannot
do the same in France. It will be the
same with other articles.
"England , Belgium , Germany and
Austria now supply France with its
imported manufactured articles. The
leading imports are raw cotton , wheat ,
tobacco , mineral oil , copper and lead.
America sends agricultural imple
ments , sewing machines , electrical ap
pliances and pumps.
"There are 642 articles on the duti
able list of the French tariff , and the
treaty gives the United States the
minimum rate on all except twelve.
Germany , England and the other coun
tries which have treaties with France
do not enjoy the minimum rate on
these twelve exceptions , which are
chiefly agricultural products. The av
erage difference between the French
maximum and minimum rate is 33 per
cent , so that imports from this country
will pay one-third less duty when the
treaty goes into effect.
"There are 463 dutiable articles in
the tariff law of the United States and
in return for its concessions France
will obtain a lower rate on less than
100 of them , the average reduction be
ing only 10 per cent. While this seems
one-sided , it is not so much so as it
appears , because American goods have
been sent into France as English goods
under the minimum tariff.
"I do not think the treaty can go
into effect before next February. It
must be ratified both here and in
France and signed by President Loubet
and President McKInley. Then copies
of the treaty must be exchanged.
"France has given all it can give
because , with its $7,000,000,000 of na
tional debt it cannot reduce its tariff
any further. We did not get what we
asked by any means , but we obtained
all the United States was willing to
give. We realized that the treaty must
be such that congress would approve
it , and France deferred to President
McKinley's wishes on that account. "
BUILDING OF NEW SHIPS.
eng Pending nmlPersonal Differences
Passed Upon.
WASHINGTON , July 27 Secretary
Long has passed upon the long pend
ing and rather personal differences
which has existed among the heads of
the various naval bureaus , concerning
the building of new ships , and as a re
sult a new order , to be known as spec
ial order No. 84 , will appear in a day
or so , amending the present system.
The matter has aroused considerable
feeling among naval officials and the
board of construction has divided into
majority and minority elements , each
presenting ideas as to what should be
done. The main point has been tha
extent of authority and responsibility
of the chief constructor and the desir
ability of having his bureau pass upon
the proposals of all other bureaus in
the building , arming and equipping of
new ships.
Secretary Herbert placed the respon
sibility almost entirely \vith the chief
constructor as to all parts of the ship
and the ship as a whole and this order ,
known as No. 433 , has been the subject
of differences.
The new order follows in the main
the language of the old order , but
some changes in the text are made
which will work considerable variation
in the system. The general effect of
the new rule appears to be in the line
of giving each bureau a larger measure
of responsibility over affairs directly
under it.
DEPARTMENT WANTS KELLY.
Cnqulry 3 In do as to the 1'ato of an Amer
ican Prisoner in Japan.
WASHINGTON , July 27. The state
department would be pleased to know
what has become of a murderer named
Kelley who at last accounts was held
in a Japanese jail under sentence of
seven years' imprisonment from the
consular court at Kokohama. Some
time before the new Japanese treaty ,
by which we surrendered our extra-
territorialty , went into effect , the
state department bethought itself of
Kelley , who was the only American
long term prisoner in Japan and had
served but six months of his sentence.
It desired to bring him to this coun
try to serve out his sentence and the
only manner in which this could be le
gally accomplished was to secure a re
quest from the prisoner that his sen
tence be commuted. Kelley was com
municated with , but was not heard
from directly. Meanwhile , the Japan
ese government notified the state de
partment that it proposed to release
all foreigners held in Japanese pris
ons under sentences from consular
courts on July 16 , the day the old
treaty expired.
The state department remonstrated ,
holding that Japan by the new treaty
assumed the obligation to hold Kelley
in jail , but the contention has not yet
been accented.

MANILA , July 28. An expedition
composed of troops from San Pedro
Macatl , Pasig and Morong , under Brig
adier General R. H. Hall , yesterday
captured Calamba , an important trad
ing town on the south shore of Laguna -
na de Bay.
There were two hours' hard fight
ing , during which four soldiers were
killed and twelve wounded. The
trenches commanding the harbor were
under water but the swampiness of
the land made the work narder. The
troops boarded cascoes Tuesday night
The force comprised 400 of the Wash
ington volunteers , 450 of the Twenty-
first infantry , 150 of the Fourth cav
alry and two guns of the First aitil-
lery. These and the gunboats Lapldan
and Costo assembled opposite Calamba
Wednesday afternoon. Crowds of people
ple in carts and on foot were seen
rushing to the hills. Natives escap
ing from Calamba in canoes said 100
insurgents held the town.
A force under Captain McGrath of
the Twenty-first infantry and Captain
Eltonherd landed above the town , but
found a river intervening. Captain Mc
Grath and Lieutenant P.atson swam
the river under a fire from twenty
Mauser rifles. Having crossed the
stream , the officers procured a cascoe
to ferry the troops over. The insur
gents retreated through the town ,
shooting from houses and bushes as
they fled to the hills. Three members
of the Washington regiment waded
from cascoes through swamps , often
shoulder deep , while a group of P ili-
pines concealed in haystacks were
shooting at them , until the Napidan
focused her 6-pounders and Gatllng
guns on the stacks for a few minutes.
Most of the work was done before the
Washington volunteers could reach
the town.
The Filipinos left three dead. Of
the casualties on the American side ,
two of the killed and three of the
wounded were members of the Fourth
cavalry and two killed and eight
wounded belonged to the Twenty-first
infantry.
There was much shooting by amigos -
gos , who emerged from the bushes
with white flags. After the fight a
dozen men holding up their hands and
shouting "Castillanos , " met the Amer
icans hysterically. There were fifty
Spanish prisoners at Calamba , of
whom some were civil officials and
some were soldiers. They had been
given the choice of joining the Filipino
army or becoming servants to the Filipinos
pines , and chose the army , intending
to surrender at the first opportunity.
Most of the civilians reached the
American lines during the fighting ,
but the insurgents took others away
with them in their retreat
General Hall captured twelve Filipinos
pines with guns.
Major General Henry W. Lawton ,
Prof. Dean C. Worcester of the Amer
ican Philippines commission , Mrs.
General Lawton , and General Lawton's
son accompanied the expedition on
board a launch and sat coolly in an un
protected boat close to the shore dur
ing the fighting , the bullets splash
ing about them.
Today General Hall Drought to Ma
nila the Spaniards whom the expedi
tion had released from captivity of
more than a year.
Lieutenant Larson , commanding the
Napidan , today found a long missing
Spanish gunboat , which bad been so
covered with bushes and fish nets as
not to resemble a vessel. The Filipinos
reinforcements and
nos , having met
thinking that the Americans had evac
uated the town , descended from the
hills today intending to reoccupy Ca
lamba General Hall easily drove
them back. General Hall will garrison
Calamba.
