FORDNEY MAkIs STANDOF REPUBLICANS PLAIN
Shows How Democratic Inter-ests in South Try to Mislead
Louisiana Planters
Senator Gore's resolution foreshadowing a possible attempt to place anexcise tax on domestic sugar has goneas far now as an estimate of its probable revenue. Still, latest advicesfrom Washington do not change thestatement previously made that thisexcise-ta-x plan has little chance of being a serious factor in tariff discusslon.
In reply to Senator Gore's resolution of Inquiry. Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo baa forwarded to the sennte the official estimate that "an exelse tax one one cent per pound onsugar produced in the United Statesand Its Island possessions would pro- -
. duce $41375.733."Sugar tariff discussion and legisla
tion are being given much attentionIn Washington now. Recently a letter from Congressman W. P. Martinof Louisiana, to Congressman JosephW. Fordney of, Michigan, and the reply, have attracted much attention.
Congressman Martin enclosed Inhis letter an editorial from the NewOrleans. Dally States and asked Fordney If -- this editorial correctly statedthe Republican position on the sugartariff. ' The editorial declared that thehope of the Louisiana sijgar planterslies alone with the Democratic party,and that; the . Republicans will probably harm the Louisiana planters. TheNew Orleans paper had it figured outthat the Republicans will try to re--
; open' the whole tariff question and if.unsuccessful will do their best to beatthe suspension of the freesugar
. clause f ths -- Wilson-Underwood bill.In reply to the letter and the edi-
torial. Congressman; Fordney wrote:'Washington, D. a, Jan. 6, 19W.Hon. W, P. Martin, House of Rep-- ,

In an opinion handed down today,Which has been eagerly awaited bypractically all army officers on uanu,Circuit Judge C. W. Ashford ex- -
presses the belief that automobilesused by army officers on military reservations are hardly necessary In theperformance of their official duties,and that the machines are thereforesubject to taxation by the territory.
The opinion states that m tne De-ie-f

Win i Pan, military governor of Shantung province, has declared his in-dependence of Yuan Shih-Ka-l Thegarrison at Tslnan, the capital city,has gone over to the revolutionists.This province Is the second within aweek adjoining Peking to go over tothe revolutionary party. Shantungprovince : Is directly south of Pekingand on the main line of the railroadfrom Peking south.
"Tslnan Is situated on the Hwang Horiver and Is considered a strong mili-tary post. It is the junction of thetwo railroads of the province, oneleading to Peking and the' other , toTalngtau, captured by the Japanesefrom the Germans. Prominent offi-
cials who know the situation In Shan-tung state that the action of the mili-tary governor means that the entireprovince will go over to the revolttlonists.
Foreign missionaries have left Tslnan for Tsingtau and many other foreigners are leaving this province. Thorevolutionists have now encircled Pe-king and the province of Chili withthe exception of one point, Honan,which still is controlled : by the mon- -
achists.Three Strongholds Left.
With Shantung going : over to therevolutionists, only three! strong prov-inces still cling to the monarchy, thesebeing Chili, Honan and Hupeh. Otherprovinces which have not yet joinedthe revolutionary movement are notIn favor of a monarchial government.
Yuan Shih-Ka- i has ordered histroops at the front to march to theprovince of Hupeh to make a standagainst the forces of revolutionaryarmies In Yunnan and Sze Chuen. Thismove is made to prevent the revolutionary troops from taking the Hankow-
-Peking railroad, which is neces-sary to the monarch.
The revolutionary government inYunnan has despatched a commission-er to the French province of Annamon th6 south, to make a contract forammuition. The revolutionary partyhas already ordered 15 machine guna,five field guns and 10,000 rifles fromFrench firms in Hanoi, the capital of.Annam. French capitalists in Annamhave loaned the revolutionary party5,000,000 francs for carrying on a cam-
paign against the monarchists.

Auto Craze IsMaking Natives
of GuamLaborCapt. Moses Says Motor-Fev- er
Is Converting "Chomoros"Into Good Citizens
Automobiles are doing more tomake industrious citizens of the Guam' lioiuori,s." or natives, than anything
else ever tried, according to Cmdr.Stanford E. Moses, commander of theV. S cruiser Saratoga, which arrivedt;day from fiiam and Manila, enrobte to Bremerton navy yard.
"Guam irt automobile mad, and thecraze has given the natives an incentive to work and make money, some-thing the governors have not beenable to achieve in centuries," saidthe Saratoga's commander this morn-ing. "The motor-ea- r is making themgood c itizens, because they need mon-ey to. keep the cars going, and payfor repairs."
Incidentally, the automobile's ad-
vent in the little island, much smallerthan Oahu, and 1500 miles east or.Manila, has giveji a big lioost towardgood roads. thecommander remark-ed. 'They have built SO miles ofsplendid roads so far." he said, "andare rapidly extending their highwaysystem. The roads are of coral, andarc superb."
Cmdr. Moses said the Saratoga's of-
ficers and crew were entertained withgreat hospitality by Capt. William J.Maxwell, It. S. N., governor of Guam,and the officers of the naval stationthere. The officers were given anautomobile ride around the island.Scores of Motorcycles.
The Saratoga's commander saidthere are CO motorcycles on the islandand many more' motorcycles. He stat.ed that the Ford predominates, butthat Buicks, Overlands and a few bigcars like the Packard and othermakes are also owned by the natives.
"('apt. Maxwell is much interestedin the development of Guam," saidCapt. Moses,, "and the results of hiswork are apparent in every direction.
.The. good roads fever has struck tneisland simultaneously with tne auto-mobile .craze."'The Saratoga stopped at Wake is-
land, an uninhabited piece of land,and sent a landing party ashore to seeIf any shipwrecked mariners might bethere. No one was found, however.Capt. .Moses reported passing thetransport Sheridan close enough sothe Saratoga's men could distinguishthe faces of those on fcoard. TheSheridan reported having had heavyhead winds.

Particular men have been known tocarry a whisk broom In their pocket,and some carry a tcoth brush; but ifwhat Peter De La Crnz. formerly ofPorto Rico, told Judge Monsarrat inthe police court yesterday is true, heis the most finicky man on earth abouthis personal appearance.
Arrested with others in a raid on a1 game back of a Chinese store on
South street. De La Cruz was chargedwith gambling and vleaded not guilty.During his trial it was shown that heattempted to assault Detective Howewith a razor. Peter denied this.
"I just happened to have a razor lamy hand," he said.
"What were you going to do withit?" asked. Attorney Ciillingworth.
was going to shave," answeredDe La Cruz.
Then it was shown bv his own testi-mony that De I.a Cruz was a long wayfrom his room. The inference is thathe fears on leaving his room hiswhiskers may grow suddenlv on him.and so he carries the razor with theintention of stopping if such a thingshould chance and scraping them off,wherever he may be.
De La Cruz was acquitted becausehe was not charged with drawing arazor but with gambling, and it wasnot positively proved that he wasgambling.

sides sugar that should be protectedand we would ' welcome an opportu-nity to sate these industries from theruinous effects of the free trade pol-
icy cf this administration, but Godforbid that the Republican partyshould be willing to see the sugar in-
dustry crushed out of existence, sim-ply because other industries are notto be accorded the protection towhich they are justly entitled.
'it must be remembered that theRepublican party, in all its past his-tory, has given adequate protection tothe sugar industry of Louisiana, andunder that fostering policy a greatdomestic industry in the North andWest (the beet sugar industry) hasbeen developed, in which the invest-ment, at the present time, is far inexcess of $100,000,000. and the domestic sugar industry In the North andWest, as well as in the South, cannotsurvive without adequate tariff protection.
'if the tariff question is opened atthis session of Congress, the Republi-can party, as in duty bound, will en-
deavor to save all industries whoseexistence is now threatened by rea-son of the effects of the UnderwoodAct, but if legislation should be con-
fined to sugar alone, then the Repub-licans will be only too glad to extenda helping hand to an industry thatwould be doomed without such legis.lation.
"As I understand It, the Democraticparty proposes to retain the presentone cent duty upon sugar, and aslong as the war lasts, this will enablethat industry to live, but without theconditions brought about by the Eu-ropean war, a one cent duty wouldnot be sufficient to give adequate pro-tecti- on
to this great industry."I notice you have introduced a bill
providing for the restoration of theduty on sugar which was carried inthe Payne-Aldrlc- h Act. 1 do not knowwhat the attitude of the Democratswill be on this measure, but if it isleft to the Republican party, I feelsure that your bill will pass.
in conclusion permit me to expressmy approval of your district sendingyou (a protectionist) to Congress.

? t ; tWill Endeavor to Secure Part
of Annual Imports Valuedat $25,000,000
U'To secure for themselves a portion
of the '$25,000,000 annual Import tradeof Hawaii, Los Angeles manufacturersand Jobbers bave begun a brisk cam-paign with the cooperation of theChamber of Tommerce of that city.
Considerable space has been giventhe project by Ixs Angeles, San Petiro and San Diego newspapers, whichstate that at the present time morethan 90. per cent of Hawaii's importsmove through San Francisco. Initialaction was taken when the jobbersand manufacturers met at the call ofthe foreign trades committee of thechamber to hear a report on trade opportunities in Hawaii, which was presen ted by L. N. Brunswick. A motionwas bassed whereby I D. Sale, chairn an of the foreign trades committee
and president of the Western Whole- -
Bale Drug Company, 'was appointed tofaead'A'new trade campaign commit--
- tee. .i :
May 'Send Salesmen.The newspaper reports of the meet
ing say that the new committee willmake's canvass of alt manufacturingfend jobbing concerns with a view tosecuring their cooperation In eitherestablishing a Los Angeles jointagency In Honolulu, or in sending aforce of picked salesmen to the islands.
Besides Mr. Sale the committee In-
cludes Solomon Schiff, president ofIhe Schiff-Lan- g Company, merchantbrokers; Douglas White, Industrialagent of the Salt Lake Route; C. S.Huston, sales maneger of the UnionLithograph Company, and FrankSimpson, fruit shipper. . .' ' The San Pedro. News says: - ;.

Franciscofor the rich traffic of the islands."Include Many Commodities., .
; According to Mr. Brunswick, thejcbmraodiUes in which the proposedpew traffic with the Hawaiian islandsshould be developed include fruit andother food stuffs, .machinery, oils andmanufactured material generally. Atthe ; meeting with the Chamber ofCommerce committee. It was pointedout that as the countries. fronting onthe Pacific ocean come more andpore into their own in the. way ofcommercial and world importance,Hawaii will increase, .especially as. itsJxjsitlon "at the "cross-roads- " of - thePacific gives it practically a monop-oly oa the coaling, watering and "Vi-

WASHINGTON, D. C. PresidentWilson has accepted an Invitation toaddress ihe fourth annual meetingof the Chamber of Commerce of theVnUed States which is to be held InWashington next month. V This announcement was made by John H.Tahey of Boston, president of the Na-
tional Chamber, following a confer-ence with the president of the WhiteHouse. Mr. Fahey predicted the mostsuccessful gathering in the history ofthe organization." , T
( Pointing out the fact that the Cham-ber cf Commerce of the United Stateshas grown In less than four years untilit now has 700 affiliated organizationsin every 'state In the Union, not tomention Alaska, the Philippines, PortoRico and Hawaii, Mr. Fahey said theforthcoming meeting would be a com-mon forum for business men to dis- -
Suss the very biggest pending ques--,affecting our commerce. .
It Is expected that delegates fromfprelgn countries may be present, in-asmuch as 'American Chambers of
" Commerce in Paris, Milan, Constanti-nople and Berlin are members of theorganization. The two newest bodiesare the American Chamber of 1Com-merc- e
for Brazil, the first from SouthAmerica,; and, the American Chamberof Commerce of China in Shanghai

"It may therefore be taken as proven, that many of the important mili-tary orders issued by the commanderof this department, and probablymany of those issued, by certain ofhis subordinates,' have been based upon calculation - and "expectation thatthe privately owned automobiles ofmilitary officers would be utilized inthe; execution of such orders.

BRITISH BELIEVE
VELCH MAY HAVE
CONTRABAND
The latest difficulty of the manyencountered In the last few monthsby the American bark Andrew Welch,well known in Honolulu for her yearsor sugar carrying between islandports and the mainland, is the allegation that she is being used by Germanagents to smuggle copper and othercontraband from the United Statesinto Germany.
. Last fall the Weleh left San FranCisco with a cargo of beans,, going toPhiladelphia first and thence acrossthe Atlantic. The following Associat-ed Press item tells of her latest woes:
STOCKHOLM, Sweden. Allegations that German agents are tryingto smuggle copper and other contra'hand from the United States Into Germany by shipping it first to a. Swedishport disguised as unprohibited food--stuffs have resulted in the strictersurveillance, of all incoming ships' bythe Swedish government
The - Andrew .Welch, an Americanbark, which arrived recently at Halm-sta- d
from Philadelphia, Is still detained at the former port pending detailed examination of an alleged cargo ofheans.
She was sighted off Halmstad cruising about for no apparent reason, andwhen . questioned by the' commanderof a Swedish torpedoboat the captainsaid he had orders to wait ; thereSoon afterwards a large German tugcame up to the Sound and; made, forthe Andrew Welch7 The captain ofthe tug was equally ignorant of theseason for sending him to a point offHalmstad, but denied that he : had arendezvous with 'the American ship.Bean Baps.

"The Swedish., naval authoritlebthereupon, brought the Andrew Welchinto" Halmstad a,nd the German, tug disappeared in a southerly direction. Acursory, examination ; of the 'AndrewWelch showed that she carried, beans,but-the- . members of the crew, told theSwedish r
customs, inspectors ? thatthe weight- - of the bags had causedsome .comment among . them, ; and'they thought there might be other
things inside." .
v Enormous quantities of non-contraba-
foodstuffs from America havebeen going into Germany from Sweden during the last six weeks, Including preserved fruits from the PacificcoaBt, coffee and tea. Imports "ofAmerican coal are increasing, owingto the continued ban on British coalby the British government. Germanyis 8endingt. cargoes of Belgian, "coalfrom Luebeck and Stettin .to . Malzno.but It is of 'inferior quality! and jthedemand for American coal is growing.

TAX
Though definite decision has notyet been reached by Treasurer: C. J.McCarthy as to the territorial taxrate for 1916, the treasurer statedthis morning that the rate will beeither 1.27 per cent or i.--
Ti cent.The ftfeasurer received word fromMaui tnis morning which completesthe estimates of necessary expensesfor the yean
Treasurer McCarthy expected tohave the rate ready to announce defi-nitely today, but a small Item of$3500 in the expenses of Honolulu wasbrought in late for consideration, andhas been referred to tne attorneygeneral for ah opinion.
This $3.)00 is interest on th" $10V000 turned over to the county throughthe territorial loan fund and alsi aportion of Interest on the finkingfund, which the auditor has heldout from the county's portion of the1915 taxes.
As the tax rate was fixed in Jan-uary last year, and as the loan funditem of 1105,000 was not provided byth legislature until April the $3500was not considered in last yea r's levy.
MrCarthv is wonderingtherefore whether he can con?lderithis amount in the present levy, inv.iincreasing the tax rate very slightlyover all the Islands, and has tal:en upthe question with the attorney gener-
al for an answer.

The authorities do not allow awto-niob'l- s.
to climb up on the sidewalks;should they not also revent pedestrians from going out on the streetsat will? The majority of the
of the present day are the re-sults of iedestrians thestreets carelessly, without exercisingproper caution. One cannot stand onany downtown sidiewalk for five min-utes without seeing a person startacross the street some place in themiddle of the block, paying no heed topossible approaching traffic that hasthe undisputed right to the street atthat point, and are out oftheir dreams by the furious honkingof an automobile horn close to them.
Carelessness fn the jart of the pe-destrian rather th?n on the part ofthe chauffeur is the prime cause ofnearly all the accidents.
Quite a number of cities or themainland have ordinances forbiddingpedestrians to cress the streets in themiddle of the blocks or diagonally oranywhere except at crossings. Suchan ordinance would work well in Ho-nolulu. It would be no hardship onpedestrians, as the cress streets areso close .together one would have buta few steps to go to cross a busythoroughfare under the protection ofa traffic and along the lines of

Saratoga, Sampson's Flagshipin Spanish yjar. Calls Here
Bound for Bremerton
With streaks of red iron-rus- t spot-
ting Le-- r once white hull, the veteranU. S. armored cruiser Saratoga, form-erly the New York, when she wasAdmiral Sampson's flagship duringthe Spanish War, arrived here fromGuam and Manila at daylight thismorning, and docked at the navalwharf at 7:20 o'clock. She will sailfor Bremerton navy yard, Washing-ton, the last of this weeTi or the firstof next.
The Saratoga is a homeward-boun- d
ship, and practically all her officersand crew, numbering yearly 400. aregoing home, her crew to be paid offand her officers to be assigned to otu-e- r
duty, having completed their for-eign cruises. She is earning 62 ma-rines back to the mainland.
Twenty-tw- o years in commission,the Saratoga, according to her cap-tain. Cmdr. Stanford E. Moses, a for-mer Honolulan with many friendshere, is going to Bremerton for athorough overhauling, after which shewill probably be placed in commissionin reserve, as the Maryland recentlywas, after 15 years of active service.
"We left Jdanila at fir o'clock NewYear's morning." said Cmdr. Jfosesthis morning, "with the bands play-- .
Ing, and other ships of the Asiatic,fleet assembled to wish us rgoodby.We flew a 400-fo- ot silk 'homewardbound' pennant from the mainmast,while our crew threw their white hatsto the men of the Brooklyn, the newflagship, as we passed, this being thetime-honore- d naval custom, signifying the completion of terms of enlist-ment."Brooklyn Now Flagship.
' Cmdr. Moses said the Brooklyn hassucceeded the Saratoga as AdmiralAlbert G. Winterhalter's flagship. TheBrooklyn came to the Philippines viaSuez, making a record trip from NewYork.' Admiral Winterbalter relievedRear-Admir- al Walter C. Bowles atShanghai last July, and about Christ-mas transferred his flag from theSaratoga to the Brooklyn, as com-mander. "She has the distinction ofhaving been the flagship of probablymore admirals than any other vesselof the American navy. I was amid-sbipma- n
on board her when she wascommissioned 22 years ago. She wasthe first modern, armament ship inthe United States navy."
The Saratoga took Admiral Winter-baite- r
to the coronation ceremoniesof Emperor Yoshihito of Japan lastfas). "We spent a wonderful month,"said Cmdr; Moses. "Every courtesywas extended us by the Japanese gov-
ernment, and the most cordial feelingwas manifested"
After the coronation the Saratogareturned to Manila, arriving there theday after the Brooklyn came in fromNew York via Suez. The day afterleaving Manila T the Saratoga wasbrushed by a small typhoon, whichpassed right around her and struckthe transport Sherman 100 milesaway. The Saratoga will take 900tons of coal here,- Cmdr. Moses paidan official visit to Rear-Admir- al Clif-
ford J. Boush, commandant at PearlHarbor, today, and other army andnavy officials here.
Following is the list of officers attached to the Saratoga:

Opera Last Evening
It was a weary audience that filedcut of thfc Hawaiian Opera House lastevening after the final curtain haddescended on the I) Kolco irodurtion,l "Ijl (iioconda" an audience soweary that' the enthusiasm over theperformance which should have beenthe company's due had noticeablycooled. For four hours most of theaudinnce had been in the OperaHouKe. and it was exactly 12 minutesafter midnight before the opera wasended.
The success of grand opera presen-tations, more than (.f any other formof stagecraft, depends upon sustainedillusion. The De Folco managementwas able to create7 the illusion lastevening with able principals, a welldrilled chorus, a ballet which was adelight, an orchestra which only onceor twice was intrusive with easilyremedied defects, and with sceneryund costumes which ranged fromk'good enough" to "very good indeed."
But illusion once created cannotbe sustained with waits be-
tween acts, especially when the nightIs hot und the theater is more thanhalf empty, so that though the differ-ent acts of the opera (after the first),were well handled, theas a whole dragged.New Estimate of Vergeri.
Madame Vergeri, in the title role,was at her best last evening, and hasforced Ilonolulans to an upward re-
vision of their estimate of her abilityas a prima donna.
Luigi Poggi, the overworked tenor,who last evening sang for the eighthconsecutive time in a leading role inseven days, having appeared twiceSaturday, is showing plainly the re-
sults of the strain to which his voicehas been put by Signor de Folco'scontinued Inability to appear. In thefirst act last evening many personswho have heard all of Poggi's per-formances failed to recognize hisvoice, which "warmed up" later, how-ever. Poggi has a splendid tenor, andhas done valiant service at the riskof impairing his voice. Without hiswillingness to sing night after nightit would have been impossible to havegiven many of the operas put on sofar. Poggi has earned the gratitudeof Honolulu audiences and a rest

The same thing may be said otWanrell, the bass, who, as the merciless Alvise, was tremendously effective, especially in the third, act scenewith his faithless wife, Laura Ber-nic-e

Aside from Wagnerian or Straussscores "La Gioconda" ranks amongthe most difficult of all operas, andgreat credit is due to the Ie Folcomanagement for putting on a per-formance with so few flaws. Thechorus has particularly difficult parts,which were well handled last even-ing, and the orchestration had no glar-ing faults save a possible over-insistenc- e
on the drums. Di Roccia obtain-ed some very happy effects by hisuse of the flute and Velio.
A special ."Honolulu Night" hasbeen arranged for Thursday of thisweaft, when "La Gioconda" will be re-
peated. Kvery seat in the house willbe cn sale for $1, from gallery downto the loge and the boxes, and it ishoped to pack the theater. Thereshould certainly be enough people inHonolulu eager to hear ' La Gioconda"'well done to fill the opera house at $1each. Ist evening there were onlyabout 150 people downstairs, with onlya scant number of balcony and gal-lery seats filled.

This afternoon but one thing restsheavy on the hearts of Scotchmenwho today are honoring their immortalbard, Robert Burns, by celebrating hisbirthday; this is that in all Oahu thereis not a lad can play the pipes.
Tonight at 8 o'clock Scotchmen andtheir guests will hear in K. of P.hall a program of music and song,many nunilw-r-s being promised by menwell known locally an extra treatbeing the louder song "I'm fu' thnoo."
The program is a long one and nottiil the last deoch-an-dhori- s has beendrunk and midnight been sounded willthe men from the land of Lurns gohome. In either sense one chooses totake it, the Scotch will be present atthe entertainment tonight and a greattime is expected, hut for the one griefmentioned above the hunt, no matter how vigilantly carried forward, hasas yet brought forth no one who canplay the stirring music of Scotland onthe bagpipes.

NO GEISHA SHOW JUL STEAMERS
BY JAPANESE AT
I916CA1IVAL
Committee Decides Expense of"A Night in Japan" Would
Run Far Too High
In the Judgment of the JapaneseCarnival Committee it would be unwise for the Carnival to attempt theproduction of such a performance asthe directors contemplated under thename of "A Night In Japan."
The idea of the directors was to enlarge Japanese participation in theCarnival and to make more effectiveuse of the local color so readily to befound. They planned to have the lanUrn parade to terminate at AthleticPark, where exhibitions of dancing, jiuJitsu,, wrestling and sword play wouldbe given, similar to those seen at therecent coronation festivities.
In the discussion at the committeemeeting last night It developed, however, that the coronation festivitiescost upwards of $3000 for construetion expenses alone. All the performers gave their services for nothing.out of patriotism. For the Carnivalthey' would expect to be paid, so thatIf the directors wished to put on asimilar performance, they might expect to set aside $5000 for expenses.Not Enough Support,
The Japanese committee did notbelieve that an audience large enoughto support this expense Is to be foundIn Honolulu. If popular prices werecharged there is not room enough InAthletic park to hold the number ofspectators that would need to bepassed In; the support given to thegeisha dances repeated at the OperaHouse, after the coronation festivities,did not indicate that there was muchdesire among resident whites to seesuch a performance; and the largestiiumber of tourists to be expected InHonolulu for the Carnival was notthought enough to make up the difference. The decision of the committeewill be reported to the directors attheir next meeting.
Indorsement of the lantern" paradeby the committee was unanimous andthe members also went on record Insupport of decorating the streets. 1 Aletter In Japanese, . stating the atti-tude of the committee, will be givento the ' Carnival decorations commit-tee, to be shown Japanese merchantswhose cooperation is invited.

EARNING LARGE
CHARTER RATES
Receive $25 Per Ton on Car-
goes From Chile to N. Y.;Some in Danger Zone
Advices received by Charles P.Morse, general freight agent in Hono-lulu of the American-Hawaiia- n Steam-ship Company, from Xew York, in to-
day's mall tell of increased oceanfreight rates since the visit east ofMr. Morse last autumn. In this en-
hanced prosperity of shipping theAmerican-Hawaiia- n largely shares.
"Freight rates in New York havegone up considerably since I was therelast November," Mr. Morse said thisafternoon.
"Last November I heard of a char-ter made for nitrates from Chile toNew York for $20 a ton. Last mail I
received a letter direct from the A.-- H
office in New York, saying that threeof the company's steamers two ofthem new boats, the Arborian and theArtisan, each of about 8.000 tons ca-pacity have been chartered for ni-
trates from Chile for New York, thenew vessels getting $24 a ton.Alt to Load in Chile.
"The Arborian was launched on Jan-uary 15 and the third one is the Isth-mian of about 7500 tons register.which has been chartered at $25 a ton.All three will load in Chile some timein April, May and June. Twenty-fiv- e
dollars a ton Is the highest rate thatI have ever heard of.
"There is a new rate also on cotton,Charleston to Liverpool, quick despatch, loading and discharging, of $60a ton weight. As cotton Is bulky, thequotation by weight means practical-ly double the usual rate. No, theAmerican-Hawaiia- n has no vessels Inthis trade.
MWe have three steamers runningtc France and Italy, braving submarine peril in the Mediterranean. SixAmerican-Hawaiia- n boats are runningrrom New York to Rio de Janeiro andSantos, and as far as Buenos Airesand Montevideo, which are charteredat very high rates, so much a dayIn fact, approximately four times thenormal rates." 1

THE GERMAN
AND
If Our Enemies Should Make Peace That AreWith Honor and Safety, We Are Always
Ready to Enter Into of Them An EconomicUnity, From Arras to Cannot Be
Berlin. Dec. 9. 1915.On about December 1, Mr. Schneide-mann- .
a socialist member of theReichstag, asked the Government toinform the house by about December9 of its Intentions regarding Termsot Peace. Count von Bethmann Holl-vte- g,
the German Chancellor, in hisreply, said: The press of the coun-
tries with whom we are at war hasexpressed much satisfaction and joyat the discussion we are to have to-
day, and those countries evidentlyhave great expectations as to the out-
come of this discussion. It is hardfor me to understand the reasons forthese great and joyful expectationsin view of the late Germanic successin Servia, the opening of the railroadto Germany's Turkish ally, and theconsequent exposure to attack of themost vulnerable points of the BritishEmpire. These successes and thewhole present situation would seemto me to make it perfectly proper andtimely for Germany's enemies to ex-
press a desire to enter into negotia-tions for peace. But our enemiesseem to have misconstrued Mr.Schneidemann's question into a weak-ening of Germany, or Into a disagree-ment of the Citizens of Germany asto the continuation of the war, be-
cause their newspapers demand, withnaive brutality, that, even now, theterms of a peace must cover all that,which, since the beginning or the warour enemies have declared, they arefighting for, namely:
The breaking up of the GermanUnion (Empire) into its componentparts ( 32 principalities).
The annihilation of the so-calle- d
Prussian Militarism,The surrehder to France hot only of
Alsace and LoraJne, but also of all theGerman land west of the river Rhine,; The surrender to Serbia of the Aus-
trian Province Bosnia,The surrender of other territory;And many other, things favorable to
England and her allies, France, Bel-
gium, Italy, Russia, Serbia, Montene-gro,, Japan, India, Cape Colony, Al-
giers, Australia, Canada etc.The speaker called these demands
"phantastfc dfesLms" aa compared withthe actuaIT developments of the wardurtag the last few weeks.
He alluded to the fact that Englandand. her allies", had endeavored . to se-
cure for themselves Bulgaria's aid toy
offering Jier fas a reward Austro-Hungari-an
territory and also neutralterritory! but that the Bulgarian rulerhad lived up to the promises made byhim at the conclusion of the secondBalkan war, in which war Bulgariahad achievedby far the most, buthad been cheated by Russia out of thefruits of her At that timeServia, ; through Russia's influence,was rewarded for being an outpostagainst i Austro-Hungar- y, but todayAustro-Hungaria- n banners are wavingover the reconquered Bulgarian terri.tories while . Serbia lies waste; an-
other victim of the "special Interests"of her great allies.
"Thanks to the farseeing policiesof King Ferdinand," continued theChanceller, "Bulgaria now forms thestrong bridge between the firmlyUnited Germanic Central Powers andTurkey and the Near East, and whenpeace is concluded this bridge will notecho with the tread of marching bat-talions, but. will lend itself to theMvorks of peace and civilization. Thefriendship which has been strength-ened by a fraternity In arms will bestill further secured, by the exchangeof national products, and the rivalrybetween the nations will confine it-
self to that peaceful commerce whichaids the development of countriesthat are striving for progress."
! The speaker then mentioned the at-
tempt of the English allies to retrievetheir lost prestige in the Balkans withthreats of violence towards Greece."The same people who profess to bewaging war against Prussian militar-ism now threaten the Greek Govern-ment with the might of the Britishfleet, which procedure makes it forall ttme impossible to pay any furtherattention to their hypocritical accusa-tions regarding Belgium. Why didnot the 'Westminster Gazette admitthis in 1914, so that the whole worldmight hav6 known the truth about Bel-glu- m
from the beginning?"After this attack upon British hypo-
crisy, the Chancellor entered into astatement of the military situation,setting forth that Germany was holding a strong, far advanced position, inRussia; that the attacks of the FrenchIn an attempt to pierce the Germantines had been shattered, although farsuperior forces had been at their dis-posal.' Also that Austria presented anunbroken front against the Italians,whose only achievement bad been theuseless destruction of towns whichthey could not take.
As to the territory won by Germanythe Chancellor stated that the econo-mic life of Belgium was again assert-ing itself and that the Belgian coalmines were practically as busy as Intimes of peace, the previous week'soutput having amounted to 3.3 mlllions of tons; and this in spite of thefact that England prohibited exportof coal.
In the territory conquered in Rus-sia, Germany was facing an exception-ally difficult task, everything havingbeen neglected by the Russian author-ities and the towns being without sew-er systems. Germany bad now inau

gurated autonomy, and in Poland, un-
der this, for them, new form ofthe new officials had
shown great zeal and intelligence.Germany had built 4000 kilometers ofnew roads, and the schools had beenreopened, but instead of instructionbeing given in the Russian language,which rormerly had been compulsory,it was now being given In the Polishmother-tongue- . In Warsaw the Uni-
versity and Technical College hadbeen reopened, the Polish language,the use of which Russia had refusedto sanction as late as February, 1915,being employed in these Institutionsalso.
In Belgium compulsory attendanceat school, not formerly enforced, hadbeen introduced, and the Flemishlanguage, which had been stifledthrough Intrigues, was being revived.
The Chancellor's comments on theenemies' press were anything but flat-tering. This press has perpetrated themost senseless headlines, a for e,
"Germany Beaten." "GermanyFinished." "Germany Begging forPeace." Foolish statements, like theone that the German Emperor wouldmake a state entry into Constanti-nople and dictate peace terms fromthere, had been published, and thephrases "Germany's downfall" and"Germany's arrogance" had continual-ly alternated In the lying reports.This press campaign had begun atthe time when the English allies' dip-lomacy in the Balkans collapsed."After all of their failures they need-ed something to distract their people'sattention from their own miserableplight." Public opinion in Germanyshould not permit itself to be influenced by such things, but should judgefrom the facts and the actual situa-tion in Germany and at the front"Against these convincing realitiesour enemies are powerless. There isnothing in our summing up of thesituation to shake our confidence, andit our 'enemies choose to ignore thetiuth now, it will be forced upon themlater."
Now entering upon his real subject,the Chancellor said: "As long as theguilt and ignorance of the statesmenin the countries of our' enemies con-
tinue, in combination with v k mis-guided opinion of their people, itwould be foolish for us to make sug-
gestions toward peace, as these wouldnet shorten, but lengthen, the dura-tion of the war First the mask mustbe torn from the faces of these states-men, who deceive their own people.At present they are still talking of awar of extermination against us, andwith this fact we must reckon. Theo-retical arguments for peace will notadvance our cause, but if our enemiesshould make peace suggestions, whichare compatible with Germany's honorand safety, we are always ready toenter into a discussion of them."
"We are fully cognizant of our un-
assailable military successes, and forthis reason decline the responsibilityfor the continuation of the misery thatnow fills the world. No one can saythat we continue the war because wewish to conquer this or that countryin order to hold it as a guarantee."
The Chancellor admitted that someIndividuals In the enemy countries

were sensible, but that the voices ofthis minority died away unheard, likethose of some of the members of theEnglish House of Lords. The theo-ries of the enemy, however, weregradually losing their power in theirown countries, and people had ceasedtalking of a twenty years war. The
! pretext of the of smallernations had lost its weight every-where in the face of the treatment ac-
corded to Greece by the English allies."The little nations find, ina difficult situation since England Isfighting for them.
After this sally againstpolicies, the en-
tered into the of thequestion, as by
enemies. He inquired if theEnglish Colonial knew thatof the 1.9 million of
8? per cent spoke Ger-man as their If Po-land belonged to Russia by virtue of
or if the principle lost Usforce when applied to India andEgypt?
Going back to the of false-hood of enemies, the Chan-cellor stated that their peoples hadbeen so baited with false stories eversince the of the war thatthey could not now be told the truth;that the phrase "that Germany mustbe was being
clung to; and that thetheory had also been invented
for the purpose of their ownpeople. ''We Germans all know thatour foodstuffs are entirelyand that the only difficult question ishow the .the food can be best
