It is the rapacity of the money-lenders that starves the suffering natives at the same time that India is actually export- ing wheat to other countries. “There is a class of men there called Banyas,” said Dr. Allen, “who are the owners of the money. They are avaricious and have no compunc- tion about charging ~the highest price for the use of thelr money. Hundreds may be starving around them, but they are unmoved. They get a ‘corner’ on the product of the farmers there just as is done in America. If there is a fallure of crops in one province the price of wheat of course gdées up to a figure that makes it prohibitive to the people of the stricken district. The wages are 0 small that it is impossible for the natives to save any- thing, and they are always at the mercy of the Banyas. “The Banyas control the farmers of the prosperous district, too, to such an ex- tent that they can fix the price at which the product of the fields must be sold. The farmer is always in debt to these men. “It is the want of money and not the want of wheat that brings so much suf- fering. There have been two famines during my stay in India, but they have been confined to certain districts. The rest of India could supply these districts with wheat, for the warehouses are full, if the peopie had the money to buy it. “We have often wondered why the American people did not know this con- FOR MEN The success of this shoe has been phenomenal.

We have been amused at | it ourselves. Of course the wheat Is dis- Wwheat go with a hundred thousand starv- ing people?” Fears Indian Mutiny. ~Why doesn’t the Government interfere when it sees thousands starving and dy- ing of hunger?” Dr. Allen was asked. “Because the Government is afrald of another Indian mutiny. To interfere with the Banyas would mean an uprising |- that would cost thousands of Knglish lives, for they are the all-powerful class. The Government can’t force them to give away their wheat. It tried a while ago to clean out a village that was infected with the plague, but a riot occurred im- mediately. “I was in the Punjab, a province in the northern part of India, where I carried on a hospltal work under the auspices of the Presbyterian Board of Foreign Missions. We treated hundreds of famine sufferers in the hospital to which I was attached. Punjab is a prosperous district, where the irrigation facilities prevent danger from famine, but we receive many people from the places where there is famine. “The pictures vou see of starving na- tives are not exaggerated in the least. There is a good deal more suffering than can be imagined. After being nearly starved to death the sufferers must sub- mit to a regular course of treatment in the hospitals. We give them milk for a while, thougi they object to taking 1t, preferring the more solid fo)ls. “The greatest difficulty we have to combat Is the caste. The people are s¢ wedded to their castes that it is almost impessitfle to break in upon them. The castes make the customs and the customs are abominable. The people do not know what unselfishness is among themselves. They think there is a motive for every- thing that you do for them. The Brahmin priests have immense Influence with them and teach their subjects that the Christians are kind to them because they want to force thelr creed upon them. Sufferers Refuse Meat. “A globe-trotting American fed a hun- dred thousand people while I-was in In- dia. They came in swarms and gorged themselves to the limit. Afterward this American passed out a cooked chicken from a rallroad train to some starving natives, but they would not eat it because they consider meat to be contaminated. ;lhe E?a::fln lWhut becgn’l\e! a Christian is oreve outcast an lhh'}fl deflled]. e o as i ‘“The people will nst help one a even If in the most direst trouble, n%}z’:f- our hospital a starving man and wife lay on the most traveled highway all day in :::mbu{:éng esu& They would not help scause they were me; different caste.

Wilson and Michael Healy, who were convicted by a jury in Judge Lawlor's court on the charge of assault with intent to commit robbery, appeared for sentence yesterday. Adams and Wilson were each sentenced to five years in San Quentin and Healy to six years. On the night of November 13 they attempted . to rob Willlam Hari- ton at First and Mission streets and were caught by Detectives Regan and O'Con- | | nell. The evidence showed that Healy was the leader, hence his increased punish- ! ment, which would have been heavier had | the jury not recommended him to the mercy of the court. Aggic Kelly, convicted of enticing Sophie Finegold, a girl 15 years of age, from her home on Bryant street and plac- ing her in a house or 1l repute in Eureka, appeared for sentence before Judge Law- lor. The defendant was tried twice, the jury disagreeing at the first trial. The Judge sentenced her to three years in San Quentin, and in passing sentence said: The trials were characterized by the most desperate efforts to defeat justice. The free manner in which false swearing was indulged, even In purelyscollateral matters, showed a marked depravity, but, fortunately for the ad- minstration of justice, the truth prevailed. Such a verdict as has been rendered in this case wag greatly needed. It is a fact of com- mon knowledge that there are many creatures in this community who seek to deal in the souls of immature girls from the basest of motives.” And when such transactions are made the subject of judicial inquiry reliance for escape from merited punishment is gen- erally placed upon the very weaknesses of the misguided minors, whose further demoraliza- tion they seek. - But, while the previous de- linquencies of the minor is so often depended upon to defeat prosecution of this offense, this i not the test of the law and should only serve to agsravate the criminal act. It is time that something was done to discourage this nefarious traffic, Henry Stone pleaded guilty before Judge Cook yesterday to a charge of burglary and the Judge sentenced him to ten yeurs in San Quentin. A. M. Johnston, charged with the same offense, pleaded not guiity, and his case was continued till next Sat- urday, to be set. for trial.. They were charged with breaking into the store of Rice & Shane, 60 Market street, on the night of December 22 and stealing a quan- tity of cigars. George W. Robinson, a boy who was convicted of burglary by a jury in Juage Cook’s court for breaking into the office of Lloyd & Wood, Nevada building, was sent to the lone Reform School till he | becomes of age. -|'y Demos Chapman, colored, was sentenced 1o seven years at San Quentin for bur- | glary by Judge Dunne yesterday. Chap- man broke into a room occupied by a sol- dler. He sald he was drunk and had made a mistake, but pleaded guilty never- theless, Order of B’rith Abram. A new lodge of the order B'rith Abram was instituted in B'nai B'rith Hall on Friday night with fifty charter members by H. Bernard, the organizer. The fol- lowing temporary officers were ~elected. after which the final selection was post- poned until the next meeting: H. Bernard, chairman; S. Borel, secrefary, and R. Rosenberg, treasurer.
