He knew of their lo- cation and area, but could not approxi- mate the total value. The business of the firm averaged about $10,000,000 | year and between the months of Oc-| | tober, 1902, and April, 1903, it had re- | duced its indebtedness on bills pay-| able about $500,000.

She is 29 days from Manila, 22 from Nagasaki and 8 from Honolulu. The full passenger list numbers nearly 1000 persons, in- cluding 160 in the cabin and 825 enlisted men. The last are as follows: Compa- | nies 10, 38, 85 and 108 of the Coast Ar- tillery, 304 men; casuals, 367; discharg- ed soldiers and employes, 123; general { prisoners, 25. One insane man, Captain J. D. Cook, a former shipmaster, from Honolulu, came up in care of an at- tendant and will be taken to the Ma- rine Hospital. Major General McKay Williamson, depot quartermaster at Honolulu, reports here for new orders. Frederick W. Unger, a war correspond- ent, is returning from Korea after the usual troubies with the military offi- cials and press censors. P. G. McDon- nell, member of the City Council of Manila and correspondent of the New York Sun; C. F. Stone, editor of the Manila Times; Dr. and Mrs. H. A. Eb- berly and daughter of Jolo; the Rev. F. M. Price and wife from Guam; Chief Engineer D. D. Wilson of the United States ship Pompey; Brigadier General and Mrs. P. M. Coxe from Honolulu; Lieutenant Colonel . H. Lauchheimer of the United States Marine Corps, and the family of Judge F. N. Powell of the Manila civil government, with about thirty commissioned officers, were among the passengers. Frederick W. Unger, the home-com- ing newspaper man, echoed the plaint of all the returning war correspond- ents. He was unable to get near the firing line and was only permitted to view the progress of the war from a long distance. The top of his head is shaved in the Chinese style. This is a feature of the disguise he adopted in This attempts to get into the zone of conflict. He says he joined the Hung Hutsus, or Red-Haired Bandits, who are Chinese irregulars now in the Jap- anese service. He drifted around awhile with these fierce barbarians, but his companions never seemed anxious to get within lancing distance of the equally fierce Cossacks. When he heard that Etzel, another correspond- | ent. had been killed by the Chinese oldiers, he decided to get back to civ- ilization and severed his connection with his red-haired friends. A story was started on the Thomas that throws a shade of doubt over the Hung Hutsus part of the narrative. According to this story no Chinese bandit ever saw Mr. Unger's head shaved, but the trick was done by the transport’s barber after he had come aboard. Passengers also declare that Unger intends to lecture in connection with his coming book on the situation in the Far East. The passengers re- peated the tale under their breaths fore and aft, but Unger laughed at the re- port and dubbed it nonsense. ‘When he boarded the Thomas at Ma- nila he found no accommodations for extra passengers and took up his quar- ters in a large stateroom which had one occupant. Soon after entering the door was locked and he learned that he was fastened in with Captain J. D. | Cook, a violently insane man. Unger was badly frightened when he was re- leased next morning. Somebody had told the attendant that Unger was crazy also and must be watched con- stantly. The Rev. F. M. Price, from Guam, | gives a few interesting items concern- ing that mid-ocean station. The isi- and’s population numbers about 10,000, of whom 1300 are children between the ages of 5 and 13. The crying need of the island is education. There are no schools and the Government appears to | be lax in providing these for its child- | wards. Under the Spanish rule the peo- ple were always illiterate and Uncle ;Sam seems to have done nothing to | change that condition. | An important discovery has come out | from the East. Surgeon H. A. Ebberly, ‘smtioned on the island of Jolo, has | found the cause of the spread of | dengue, the malarial fever of the Phil- ippines. It is simply the mosquito—the | same noxious insect that has been found to be the spreader of yellow fe- ver in Cuba. The doctor has prepared and forwarded a voluminous report of | his important discovery to the surgeon ;genernl in Washington. ! —— \ The Peru in Port.

Senor Valedo is one of the most prominent financiers of Central America, having been connect- ed with the banking institutions of Salvador for twenty odd years. He is at present general manager of the Banco Salvadoreno and is a large holder in coffee fincas. Although occupying the second high- est position within the gift of the peo- ple of Salvador, Valedo makes no claim to being a politiclan and in fact he stated yesterday that he has taken no interest in the politics of his country further than for the welfare of the republic. Regarding the conditions there, he said: The republic of Salvador has never been in l4 better condition than at the present time. | President Eecalon is a peaceful man and his | administration has emphasized this fact. in charge. —_———— Supervisors to Inspect Dairies. The Board of Health yesterday ex- tended an invitation to the Supervisors to visit the dairies so that they may personally view the conditions exist- ing in the handling of milk. Some of the Supervisors are apposed to many of the proposed rules regulating dai- ries to be incorporated in an ordin- ance and the Health Board desires to show that the bad sanitary conditions in most dairies warrant the adoption of stringent regulations. The party will leave from the City Hall in a car- ryall at 9 o'clock next Sunday. ——t e Joint Action on Water Supply. The Board of Supervisors received a communication yesterday contain- ing the information that the Board of Trustees of Berkeley had appointed Trustees Thomas Dowd, R. C. Staats and F. F. Connor to act in conjunc- tion with President Thomas Rickard at any meeting held by the various legislative bodies around the bay for the purpose of considering the ques- tion of securing a joint source of water supply for cities contiguous thereto. e — Peterson’s Injuries Fatal.

The Vice Prelldent is 43 years old and entered upon his official duties a year ago. It is the first political posi- tion he has held and he was selected for it owing to his well-known ability as a financier and his loyalty to Presi- dent Escalon. During his stay in the East Valedo expects to call on Presi- dent Roosevelt and convey to him the respects of President Escalon of Sal- vador. A needed rest after many years' attention to business affairs is the main reason of Valedo's visit to this country. | gtven to musie. the United States for the first time on | REV. The 1deas !
