LABOR CONTRACTS TO HOLD | ARRIVAL OF THE HAWAIIAN | COMMISSION. | Senator Morgan Tells Why He Made | So Vigorous a Fight to Take Hawaii Into the Union of States. The Hawalian Commission, consisting | of Senators Cullom and Morgan and Rep- resentative Hitt, arri ed in this city k\s[‘ night at five minute after 11 o'clock on the overland train that was more than two hours late. The party included Mrs 8. M. Cullom, Mrs. Willam B. Ridgely Senator Cullom daughter; J. Castle Ridgely, the Senator’s private secretal George W. Morgan. private secretary to Senator Morgan; Mrs. R. R. Hitt, wife of the Congressman; Willlam Hitt, a son, and Robert R. Hitt, another son, and the Congressman’s private secretary. The officers of the commission accompanying the commission are Henry W. Hayes, secretary, M. W. Blumenberg, officlal stenographer; Albert S. Berry Jr., ser- geant-at-arms, and D. A. Ray, disbursing officer. When they left behind them the glaring the bleak alkali and the stunted h of the Nevada desert and un-| der a smiling sky of unflecked blue passed through the granite gates of California | {nto the pines and vines and orangegroves of the north they heaved a sigh of re- lief. “It's a lovely land to be in,” sald Con- gressn Hitt, “but one must cross a fearful desert to get here.” At Auburn, where the train stopped for a little while, a crowd of citizens greeted the party from the platform with cheers, and a committee of ladies of that lovely lage of the Sierra foothills brought ts of fruits and flowers to Mrs. Hitt, d .

This mission of peace will bring the fruit of righteousness both to the eople of Hawall and to those of the Tnited States, and your own great State of California will be benefited more than any other State in the American Union.” Mr. Hitt did not say anything about Hawali, but as the time was short he confined himself to thanking the people for their enthusiastic welcome. Mr. Hitt declined to be interviewed as to what action the commission proposed tc take. He had his own _opinion, he said, but that was private. The function of the committee was investigation and to make recommendations to Congress on thelr return from the islands, What those | recommendations would be he could not state, nor did he know. They would de- pend ‘entirely on the result of the investi- gation. | Mr., Cullom gave a similar reply to ques- tions put by The Call reporter. | Mr. pMnl‘ san took a similar tack, but he | was so full of the subject, so enthusias-| tic over the cause of annexation, that he | soon thawed out and frankly declared his | opinior He could hot tell what the| commission intended doing, because th had not held a meeting and would not| until they should go -into session in Hon- | olulu with the commission appointed by | the late Hawalian republic. 3 | “The benefits to accrue to the United States from_annexation were numerous and far-reaching in their importance,” he aid, and he did not consider that the | Westward limits of the United States were | omplete without the Hawaifan Islands. | a whereby | | “In the treaty with Rus Alaska was acquired, our territory was tretched out 1000 miles to the west. In- ern boundary it it were | are the Midway Islands. ,‘and they are 5o that they a side of that west ox(oriuled h ) ¢ f Hawali, o Sea Hawali within the pur- | W tual inclu View of the limits of the United States And we annexed her. We ought to fix the | Sestern boundary of the United States, | And we may find it necessary to acquire other posse sfons.” The Senator then cited Pago-Pago, in | Samao, taken as a naval station. In that blace the United States had title to the | jand around the margin of the bay and | Quite @ distance back. Being a commer- | A Shation, we are obliged to have coal- | ing and naval stations In different pa of the world for repairs, drydock: etc., and, being a comme! nation we should use every mean to sus {ain the efficiency of the I for the protection of our commerce. Coming Sown to matters of more immediate con- | sequence to us I would say that Hawall, being about 2000 miles from the principal port of our Western coast, is a point Which in its strategic value is estimated by military men and naval officers as in- dispensable to the security of our coast it we should be involved in a foreign war as a place of supplies and refuge for our | ships of war, etc. “he strategic value of the Hawallan Islands for the defense of our coast is estimated by the best experts in our havy and army as being in a manner of the very highest degree of importance. Ships of commerce want places to which they may go for repairs, for wood or toal or provisions or other supplies, and | Hawall is the only place in the North | | | right to o there as they have a right to | come here. with white people who will make com- fortable homes where lhei{ will raise fruit, coffee and other articles of export. The labor in the cities will be necessarily of a migratory character, such as skilled artisans, bricklayers, stonemasons, car- penters, etc. Contract labor, of course, will have to disappear, but we will give those people their rights. It is evident that Importing labor to sugar plantations | and other industries must stop. So_far as the Japanese are concerned they nave a We legislate against the Chi- nese in the United States, and that bar- rier will operate against them in Hawall as it does here. The Hawalian Govern- ment has prohibited thelr importation.” ‘How about the Japanese laborers now there working on contracts?” was asked. ““As 1 understand_it,” replied Senator Morgan, “although I will not be positive that it is the fact, these contracts pro- vide that the Japanese at the end of the terms of their contracts will be returned home. But they are entitled to their rights under those contracts, and they will be allowed to work them out. Annex- ation does not annul any private con- tracts. It abrogates treaties made be- tween Hawail and other powers. So the Japanese will be allowed to work under the contract system untll the expiration of the existing contracts.” “Will all those persons who are now citizens of Hawail be made citizens of the United States also by annexation?” “Yes,” replied the Senator. “All those persons who are now citizens of Hawail will become citizens of the United States by annexation.” The party will leave for Honolulu on the 10th of this month on the Mariposa, and will remain in the islands a month or_six weeks making their investigations. To-morrow evening the Union League Club will entertain the commission. SHOT BY HIS COUSIN. Wong Kim Chee, a Restaurant Keep- er, Seriously Wounded at a Theater. Wong Kim Chee, who owns a restau- rant at 20 Waverly place, was shot in the back by his cousin, Wong Ah Due, at the Jackson-street Theater last evening. The shooting will probably be the peginatng of a family feud, as relatives of the men say if the wounded Chinaman dies there will be no need for a trial, as Wong Ah Due will be killed. The shooting took place about 11:30 o'clock and Officers Peters and Fowle, who were on the corner of Kearny and ashington streets, hearing the shot im- mediately rushed to the tgenten They had some trouble in gaining an entrance, as the place was crowded and friends of the would-be murderer blocked the way until he escaped through a back door. The wounded man was removed to the Harbor Hospital, where Doctors Hill and Zabala dressed the injury. The ball, which was from a 4l-caliber Colts re- yolver, is lodged in the muscles of the back. When asked to write down the name of his assailant Wong Kim Chee refused to | do so, but asked that his friend, Wong Yen Kee, a restaurant keeper on Clay street, be called.

He thought it a great ana unnec- essary waste of land. Some one replied that the trees were aboriginal and that they were allowed to stand in the flelds in order to prevent the grain from being baked into pretzels, an answer which amused the Commissioner. The distinguished gentlemen, however, said more in their speches from the back platform of the car than they did in their private conversations. Senator Cullom, after thanking the Cali- fornfans for their hospitality, remarked that he would not say a word as to what the Commission intended doing, but he would say that for very many years each of them had been a strong advocate of the annexation of Hawail as a part of the United States. They were under instruc- tions by the act of Congress to investi- gate and determine, so far as they were able, the character of legislation neces- sary. to be enacted by Congress for the government of the islands. Senator Morgan sald that this would be his second visit to Hawali. The first had been for the purpose of informing him- self as an American Senator whether or not he ought to vote for its admission. He had found that all American states- men with a single exception, which he did not_care to mention, had been earnestly .in favor of annexation. Tt was a work that had developed itself under the prov- {dence of God, and this Sabbath afternoon could not be better occupied than in re- minding themselves of the facts which led to the annexation of Hawail. “In 1820 a band of American mission- aries went to Hawall and found a woman there in the regency of the islands after - the death of Kamehameha J—a woman who had redeemed her sex from the abominations of the Tabu; had burned up the idols: had destroyed the temples of the i{dolators, and had roclalmed, as far as she was able, the liberty of her sex. Thus was initiated by a woman a policy which will continue until the Hawallan Islands have been thoroughly American- imedr zed. “Y¥re are going in there,” continued the Benator, “on a mission of peace and brotherly love and to welcome into the Union a people whq are worthy in sg';;oou of being cifizens of the Unit fAnd that this misston has coms to | Pacific where these things can be ob- tained. There s no reason why the Ha- walian Islands should not take the same | relation to the commerce of the world, | particularly to commerce on the Ameri- can shores of the Paclfic Ocean, as Hong- kong does to Asla, a port which in fifty years sprung from a barren rock to be one of the most important ports in the world. I do not understand why we should not be very anxlous to acquire Hawall when we consider its value to navigators and to commerce generally “Another fmportant relation that Ha. wall bears to the United States and the whole of the Pacific Coast in particular is the fact that it will be thy landing place, and the only one, for thesé lines of electrical cable that must supply the Paci- fic Coast with naval intelligence. That is one of the most excellent features of the situation. No cable can be built from the American continent to the Asiatic con- tinent without having a resting place somewhere in midocean, and Hawali is the only place that s available in the North Pacific. Cable lines under the con- trol of the United States from the Amer- jcan coast to Hawail will be joined there by lines from the different points of the Pacific Coast of Asia and Australia. It seems to me that the advantages which must flow from that plexus of cable com- munication are of indispensable import- ance to the commerce of the world. “As a mere plece of property,” con- tinued the ~nator, “It is of very great value. It is a comfortable support for one and a half millions of people when Hono- lulu shall have become a port of great fmportance to commerce. The productive capacity of the island is most varied. 1 never saw any other country in which T would prefer to live on account of climate, scenery and great variety of products. So that in looking over the advantages which | Hawali will bring to the United States I can see to my own satisfaction at least that they are numerous and great, and when we come to consider the disadvan- tages I can concelve of nome.” “How about admitting the Japanese contract laborers in competition with white laborers?” tural country,” replied th &rgper plan of acquiring dm t.g{'l’l: "v ;) engage in under 3 of its forms. ul lands of Hawall furnish the mo.fn?a‘}’é’f. ments_and incentives for poor men and thelr fami ll%l to locate there, these in- elng greater than those of A . “the abor there is riculture " 0&2:.00““ t 1 kn £, Th an; 3 - B, ST e that the tslands wiil A wp cousin of the wounded Chinaman, gave the information to the police as to the name of the man who did the shooting. | He sald that he did not know just what the trouble between the two cousins was, but he knew that there had been two other quarrels during the day.

The police have a good description of Wong Ah Due and expect to have him in the prison within a short time. Wong Kim Chee's wound will probably be fatal. —_———— The famous old JESSE MOORE WHISKY is recommended by physiclans for family and medicinal use becaue it is pure. THE WONDERFUL “VENTRILOPHONE” EDWARD BELLAMY’S PROPHECY IS FINALLY FULFILLED. An Augmented Telephone Which Dis- tinctly Throws the Various Sounds Into All Parts of a Room. The prophecy of Edward Bellamy in his famous soclalistic novel “Looking Back- ward” has been fulfilled, in one partic- ular at least, before the dawn of the twentieth century; and notwithstanding all the inventive genius that has been devoted to the working out of the diffi- cult problem, it has remained for a BSan Franciscan to solve it. The invention is called the ventrilophone. It is an amplification of the telephone, and by its use the ear-plece required in the telephone is obviated and the neces- sity of using the hands during conver- sation is removed. In other words, the imagination of Bellamy has become a reality, as speech over the ventrilophone {s made clearly audible in all parts of the room and when the house is quiet can be heard in an adjoining apartment with the connecting doors closed, Sound is received from a disc some | married her. pany. He will leave for Chicago in a few days to arrange for placing the ven- trilophone on the market. SHE INHERITED A SUICIDAL MANIA MRS. COWING KILLS HERSELF | AFTER SIX ATTEMPTS.

Mrs. Cowing was of a very nervous tempera- ment and has tried to end her life six times before the successful attempt of yesterday. * The carbolic acid was taken about 11 o'clock in the morning, and when Mrs. Cowing was discovered she appeared to be dying.

Accused of Misconduct by Her Hus- band, She Fires a Bullet Into Her Head —The Man’s Statement., Accused by her husband of being too friendly with another man, Augusta So- phia Rohlfs, a native of Denmark, aged 33 years, committed suicide last evening | by shooting herself in the head. The deed | was done at 322 McAllister street, where the Rohifs lived. | Shortly after moon yesterday a young taflor named Simon O. Meier visited the | Rohlfs, intending to spend the afternoon. He had his wheel with him, and as Rohlfs was feeling restless he suggested that he take his bicycle and go for a spin through | the Park. Rohlfs accepted the offer, and was gone for several hours. As he returned and entered the room in which were Mejer and Mrs Rohlfs he noticed that the latter was laboring under | some great mental excitement. Mefer did | not attempt to offer an explanation, but | looked rather sheepishly at the indignant husband. Rohlfs immediately left the room, but returned In a few minutes to find Meier | gone. More convinced than ever that his | suspicions were correct Rohlfs, in al paroxysm of rage, demanded of his wife | to tell him what had happened. As <he did not reply, Rohlfs, who was scarcely able to control his temper, again | left the room to ‘“cool off,” as he ex-| pressed it. He walked from the house along McAllister to Polk. Determined to | compel bis wife to speak Rohlfs returned and as he was about entering the room he was startled by a pistol shot. Not thinking that his wife had shot her- self he summoned the landlady, and they proceeded to make an investigation. In the meantime one of the roomers in the house, suspecting that Mrs. Rohlfs had shot herself, tried to open the door of her room, but found It locked from the inside. Throwing his shoulder against the door he succeeded in forcing it. As he entered he discovered Mrs. Rohlfs lying on the floor, her head resting | dgainst the bureau. There was a gapin; wound on the right side of her head, an in her hand she tightly held a cheap | bulldog revolver with one chamber empty. From the nature of tha wound it is sup- posed that death was Instantaneous. On a table in the room were two empty glasses, which had contained beer. There was also a large plece of cheese and sev- eral slices of bread, showing that the couple were having a *spread” while Rohlfs was enjoying himself with Meier's wheel in Golden Gate Park. Rohlfs was heart broken when he was told that his wife was the vietim of the shot he had heard. “It's too bad,” he moaned. “I didn’t think poor Augusta would do such a rash act. That fellow, Meier, who I supposed was my friend, is the cause of it. He had me take his wheel out to the park, and when 1 returned he sneaked out of the house without even saying good-by to me. “His actions made me susplcious, and when my wife refused to offer any ex- planation I became convinced that some- thing was wrong.” Meiler became acquainted with Mrs. Rohlfs some time a; They both worked | in a talloring establishment on Mission ?treet, and seemed to be on very friendly | erms.

The fitth annual outing of the Swedish- American Benevolent and Military Soci- ety, under the auspices of the uniform rank, K. G. B., was held at Seaside Gar- dens yesterday. The committee, consist- ing of Captain N. H. Olson, chairman; D. Molander, A. M. Wallen, Charles E. Johnson and E. A. Wallen, did every thing in its power to make the affair a success. An address was delivered by Captain Olson In the afternoon in which Ameri- can patriotism was overflowing. The principal feature of the day was in the representation of Admiral Dewey’s victory in the harbor of Cavite. It took place on the water of the bay. A miniature fort was erected with three boats flying the Spanish colors snugly at anchor lying in the shelter of the fort at the time that Dewey arrived with his five American warships, which were manned by Julies Peirson, as Admiral Dewey on board the Olympia; Captain A. M. Wallen of the M. Baltimore; _ Captain ~ B. Wallen of the Ralelgh; Captain C Ringberg _ of the _ Concord, Captaln_ P. Brown of the _Boston. Gus Anderson had the inglorious honor of representing the Spanish admiral, while Charles Anderson and Charles J. H. Berg were the unfortunate captains of the three Spanish men-of-war which were de- stroyed in Manila Bay The arrival of the American ships s the signal for the Spanish fort to open fire. This was followed by the Spanish ships. Then the batterles from Uncle Sam’s marine de- | stroyers were let loose, and in a few min- | utes only the smoking ruins of the Span- ish fort and ships remained.
