NEW YORK, June 20. A cable mes
sage to the New York World today,
which was unsigned, but which prob
ably was forwarded by the American
Legation at Peking, announced the
shooting of Colonel Edwin Emerson,
Jr., one of the World's correspondents
in the East, and conveyed the impres
sion that he had been killed. The cable
stated that it was reported that Emerson
had been shot by the retreating Rus
sians, who mistook him for a spy. j

WAR PHOTOGRAPHER A WRECK.
VICTORIA (B. C), June 21. Two
Oriental liners, the Empress of China
and the Kanagawa Maru, arrived almost
simultaneously this morning, the Jap
anese vessel being the pioneer of the
Nippon Yusen Kaisha fleet since the
reorganization of its foreign business,
suspended for a time by reason of the
war. Among the Empress' passengers
was R. L. Dunn, the war photographer.
To Dunn belongs the distinction of hav
ing taken the only satisfactory picture
of the naval affair at Chemulpo, inciden
tal to which was the destruction of the
Korietz and Variag. Without the per
mission of the Japanese or any others,
Dunn established himself at Chemulpo
before the declaration of hostilities,
thenceforward declining to be bound by
the restrictions incidental to assignment
with the armies, and as a free lance
went wherever he scented trouble, push
ing on even to the Yalu on these princi
ples. Arrest, imprisonment and difficulties
innumerable were consequently his por
tion; and now, reduced in weight to
less than ninety-five pounds and tem
porarily broken in health, he is home
ward bound in the hope of recuperating.

that they will be as Gov. Carter was act

the acting Governor of Hawaii and also
to Gov. Carter a copy of comments by
the State Department on the granting of
a passport to Tamazo Katsnnuma. The
history of the case is probably known
in Honolulu. Gov. Carter granted a

cifically provides that no Mongolian

United States. In a letter, which has

port, but when on its face the certificate

mensely in Illinois and in Chicago in re

Western state where the Democrats have
any hopes, even remote, of winning elec-

states west of the Appalachian rtioun

college, even if they carry New York

As soon as the National conventions

in politics for several weeks. The State

N. Y. TRIBUNE WANTS HAWAII
TO KEEP ITS REVENUES
Following is from the New York
Tribune editorial page of June 13 :
After all the hints that have come
from Hawaii of aspirations for State
hood, and all the complaints that have
come from Porto Rico or perhaps more
often been made here in behalf of Porto
Rico because that island has not been
erected into a Territory as an integral
part of the Union, it is interesting to
note some remarks just made in Wash
ington by Governor Carter of Hawaii.
Mr. Carter lays great stress on the ex
ceptional situation and special needs of
Hawaii which are not met by the treat
ment which Congress is able to give it
as an ordinary Territory. He says :
"The transfer of 'our customs receipts
to the Washington government has so
crippled our revenues that we have had
to reduce expenses fully one-third."
Will . the sentimentalists who lament
the wrong done by special tariff systems
for outlying islands held not to come
within the uniform tax rule of the Con
stitution please note that complaint. Ha
waii is enjoying the fruits of the con
stitutionalMariff. It is not,' like Porto
Rico, subjected by our tyrants of pro
tection to a different revenue law from
that which they enact for themselves.
Yet it suffers from that beneficent equal
ity which has been so loudly demanded
in the name of human freedom and 'the
sacred codfish. So would Porto Rico
suffer if the prayer of some of its pro
fessed friends were granted and its sta
tus as a separate estate were changed.
As an integral part of the United States,
Porto Rico would be compelled to give
not only the customs duties but the inter
nal revenue imposts over to the United
States Treasury, and depend for its local
needs on direct taxes and such charity
as it could beg from Congress on the
plea of public improvements of use to
the federal government. Now Porto
Rico has the benefit of the revenues
raised in the island, and, moreover, is
able to adjust them to the financial cir
cumstances of its inhabitants. It is not
compelled to tax the peasant's cigar at

four or five times its selling price there.
The taxes are adjusted to local wages
and prices as they could not be if the
island was brought under the Constitu
tion. How the constitutional taxes in
Hawaii harmonize with local prices we
are not informed, but apparently the au
thorities at Honolulu would be glad to
exchange some of the privileges of uni
formity for a chance to keep the cus
toms receipts in their own Treasury.
The incident emphasizes the truth'
which we have often pointed out that
the situation of these outlying islands
is so peculiar as to forbid all thought
of ever erecting them into States. They
have their special needs which require
federal legislation impossible with refer
ence to States. They want all their
revenues at home, and are not prepared
to bear a share of the nation's financial
burdens. They are of such importance,
ance, 1 1

naval and military, that no division
authority in them should lie perm
but the complete control should remain
in the federal government. They are
so apart from the continent that they
could not wisely take a hand in gov
erning us. Their representatives, like
those of Martinique in the French Cham
ber, would do little to secure really wise
legislation for their own islands, Jbut
would be a contingent to vote on con-
tinental affairs as mercenaries, not neces
sarily corruptly moved, but controlled
by other reasons than convictions found
ed on knowledge of and interest in the
matter at issue.
