To- day Minister Powell reported to the State Department that he had received belated advices from Jéan Villaine, the vice consular agent at Samana, dated February 9, to this effect: “Insurgents entered our consulate at Samana with armed force and took two refugees out.” The State Department promptly com- municated this information to the Navy Department, with a request that proper action be taken by the naval authori- ties to protect the United States con- sulate. This was promptly transmitted to Admiral Wise, and it is the belief that he will not only protect the con- sulate, but will demand the punishment of the perpetratows of this outrage, and if the provisional government is not able to do this he will .employ the TUhited States naval force to chasti the insurgents. ———————————— Germans Killed in a Battle.

INDIANAPOLIS, Feb. 16.— esident Mitchell of the United Mine Workers of America has sent a personal tele- gram of condolence to Mrs. Hanna, say- ing that in Senator Hanna's death la- bor has lost a sincere friend. Mr. Mitchell said to-day: “The death of Senator Hanna is a distinct loss to the cause of industrial peace. The latter years of his life were given to the promotion of the work of reconciling the interests of employes and employers. I enjoyed the friend- ship of Senator Hanna and his confi- dence in matters of this kind, and [ know of many things he has done, of many sacrifices he has made in the in- terest of organized workingmeg, for which he neither sought nor received credit. His efforts as chairman of th National Civ Federation brought him into close relationship with nearly all the trade union movements, and he had the respect of all men.” William Huber, president of the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners, said: “In the death of Senator Hamna I feel that this country has lost one of its greatest statesmen and leaders, one whose loss will be felt among all men, one who dared to do and say what he thought was right, irrespective of what the opposition might contend for.” President Lynch of the Internationai Typographical Union said “Occupying such a commanding posi- tion in public life Senator Hanna wielded an influence that was prolific in results, and his tolerant and reason- able attitude on the questions that are causing strife between capital and la- bor created a better feeling and a bet- ter understanding on the part of the disputants and the public generally. The sentiment thus created will not die with Senator Hanna. It will live long- er than the remembrance of his political victories.” —_—ee———— SURVEYS IN HAWAII ARE TO BE HURRIED Men Employed in Coast and Geo- detic Work Will Report on Hanalei Bay.
