The men clamored to be taken back to Martinique, aaaertlng that they had been mlalnfonned aa to the conditions here before they embarked, and that later they learned these conditions were intolerable and deadly.

The French Consul at Colon.

Th» men. however, were not amenable to this reasoning. Before noon, at the Instance of M. ftaven. the agent of the company, and Uftte French Consul t squad of Panammu police went on board tbe vessel and told tbe men that force would be used if they persisted In tbeir refusal to disembark.

Tbe laborers at 2 o'clock were Informed that they would be given two hours to reconsider tbeir decision, and at a,o'clock three of them consented to disembark, the others still bolding out.

San Francisco. Cal.—Lamenting the political situation in tbe Phillppinee and the ware of ladrooltm that has swept over many of tbe provinces. Secretary of War William H. Taft, who arrived from the Islands oo the Korea, expressed the belief that a change In the constabulary ought to be effected Immediately, and declared that the proposition was flow under consideration by the Government. Referring to the fact that some of the younger men on the Island had been advocating Immediate Independence. be declared with considerable emphasis that In the opinion of the Administration there waa no possible hope for lodependeoce short of a generation. because the people could not be fitted for self-government In that time, and It wonld probably take a much longer period. Mist Alice Roosevelt remained fora longer stay In tbe Orient and the Hardman party delayed Its return, as all re cabin accommodations on the Ko■a bad been taken. General Taft said: "It was very gratifying. on landing at Manila, to find that tbe great harbor works, which will probably make Manila harbor at convenient as any In the Orient were practically completed, to-that the largest vessels were able to load and unload in stormy weather, during a southwest monsoon, behind a breakwater. something which Is unheard of

for years.

"The whole appearance of the city, to one who knew it four or five years ago. Is changed. The streets are well paved and clean and the gutters and curbs are In excellent condition. The main business streets are pared with the hardest kind of wooden blocks, the streets are being widened, new streets are being laid out. and everything Is done In accordance with tbe plan made for the Improvement ot Manila by Burnham, of Chicago. "The most noteworthy change is the construction of sn electric street railway along thirty-three miles of the etreets of Manila. It ls-a paying property. greatly patronised by the natives. and has nearly revolutionised living in the city.” Concerning trade conditions in the Orient. Secretary Taft said: ‘The project to establish a comprehensive exhibit of American goods st Shanghai Is one that commands my hearty commendation. It U should be put through. It will be. so far as my Information gdea, the first Intelligent effort of American merchants to go after tbe business of the Orient "Situated as the American merchants are a,nil possessing as we believe the best output In the world, they are nevertheless being hopelessly outclassed h the quest of tjie Immense commerce it China, Japan and other Oriental

asun tries.

"Americans are not sending the right goods over there, and what they do send is not put up in packages calculated to attract ’he merchants of those countries. - The native dealers get no opportunity to Inspect pur products, and probably wouldn't buy such as are being exported If they did. £ Any such plan as this exhibit should supplemented by reorganised consr service, and to this end merchants should get after tbeir Congressmen and compel action on this most important subject"

An Itogenions ConnMUout Farmer Killed by a Train.

New Haree. Conn.—Man bai seldom contrived his own death more pitifully through (he triumph of Hi own efforts, aimed in a far different direction, than has Samuel Casner, a farmhand living near here. After weeks of study and patient labor, to which be gsvc all bis spore time aod all his spare money, Casner built for himself a borne-made automobile. He was taking bis first spin in It when, in running over a level crossing, be was caught by tbe Pittafield Express. He was killed instantly, his mangled body being thrown more than 200 feet HU automobile wsh ground Into scrap iron. Caaner waa on bU way to see bis father, wbo lives only half a mile away from the scene of the accident. Word of the dlac.iter reached the old man, and he walked down to the crossing to learn the details without any forewarning of the fart that bU eon was the automobllist wbo bad been killed. He was prostrated, by the shock of the nth. The building of an automobile had long been a pet project in Casuer’s mind. He was forty yoars old, and though he had been a farm band uii hU life, being In the employ of Wellingtqn Smith, of Orange, at thr time of hU death, be had taught biutself a good deal of the rudiments ot mechanics snd was of s highly ambitious bent HU friends Ungbed at him when be first told them be thought it would be easy enough to traild an automobile himself If be bought a few of tbe essential parts, but be stock to bU Idea, and. buying here and there as be could afford It. turning hU own wheels and shafts and hammering out hU own frame, he at last was ready tor the task of putting it together. Put It together be did. hut it was far from reaching bU ideal of a smoothly running machine. HU motive power was all right, but tbe roughly made Joints and cranka would not work harmoolously. Tbe automobile would go at a fair rate, but It made such a clattering and banging that Casner himself Admitted be could not hear himself think. None tbe leas be had succeeded In building bU automobile, and be set out from bU home In Orange to take bis first real tpln and show bU work to hU father at Tyler City. Farmeft all along the road came out to see what was tbe matter as he crashed and rattled by. but Caaner waa too intent on running bU machine to pay any attention to tbeir chaffing remarks. In spite of the noise It carried him without mishap as far as the railway crossing, just outside Tyler City. Thera the railway wrings around a sharp curve, and Casner. wrapped up in the entbnsUsm of hU own creation, reached It Just as the Pittsfield Express was rushing down. The din of hU own machine prevented him from bearing tbe roar of the approaching train or the shrill whistle of warning, and tbe engine caught him as the iU-tated automobile was squarely across the tracks. He was dead when picked up from a cluster of bushes 200 feet away. He leaves s wife ahd four children.

N T -Out of tbe Adlroudacks have eon* many thrilling tales, but for friulullt-- bravery snd devotion to a stricken husband none surpasses the story of Mrs Charles Fentons night rilmli op IVbltefaee Mountain, one of die highest peaks In New York State The ascent of Whiteface is a difficult matter even for a strong man accompanied by a guide In daylight, and Dev before has a woman made tbe climb alone after dark It was ail la va|e. also, for Mrs Fenton reached ber husband only to find him dead. Charles Fenton, the husband, was a wealthy retired hotel keeper who lived In tbe town of Number Four. He waa seventy-six yeaem old and one of the best known men In the Adiroodacka. Six years ago be married Miss tVegg. accomplished woman, thirty years

old.

After ordering the launch operator i summon s physician and other, assistance the young woman started back up tbe trail to her stricken husband. In vain she was told that it wa* sheer madness to attempt the ascent of Whlteface alone snd in tbe dark. Bears bare frequently been seen in tbe vicinity recently and guides have reported bearing the cries of some animal, presumably a catamount. Unarmed, without a light and apparently with no thought of her own safety, the young wife pressed on. Several times she lost tbe trail snd was compelled to crawl on her bands aad knees. Tbe briar bashes tore her clothing and ent her. At last she reached the spot where her hu*han« lay. There was no Indication that be had stirred since she had left him. and she could detect no heart beets. She began to realise that he was past tinman aid- Her fears were confirmed when Dr. Warren and a party of vokunteers arrived from Lake Placid.
