New York, Jnu. 1.1.?There is a great
deal of uncertainty as to the exact intentions
of tho government in regard to
the Inestiou of reinforcements for South
Africa, says tho Loudon correspondent
f The Tribune. The jmu.mncement
made ao positivolv* by The Post that tho
enrollment of Baden-Powell's police
force had been abandoned is oflieially
nont radio tod. Probably The Post was
led into error by the confusion of official
Cia, as it is now stated that in addito
the constabulary the war oflico
intends to dispatch to the Cape 5,000
men to strengthen tho Imperial yeomanry,
which, ns a fighting bedy, has
besn seriously weakened.
It is expected that, without counting
**' the polico recruits, a few" weeks-time
* will seo more than 10,000 fresh British
troops in tho field. The question of
mounts is also being dealt with aud
horses are now, it is understood. being
sent to South Africa at the rate of about
8,000 a mouth.

of enthusiastic <;iti/.>:ns, who hailed t!iu

prosperity and tpr.id Koverniiiettt..
It-is estimated thet there wore fully

over tho state.
Governor Aycoe!: nrrlvul tius morning
and was non-ducted to 111" capitol,
where tho ceremonies occur re I.
lu his inaugural whlro.* the governor
took high grounds ami | leilgiu himself
to lit: tho governor of oil the people.
Ho said in jmrt:
"Every four y? ars biiogs ar a chpnge
of administration hat not always a
change of policy. This 3 ear wo moot
under extraordinary cirruiustano >s?one
art v goes out oi power anil another
one begii,sVnr...I!?I,ry r,',ls "?.v
and a new ceorurv rV.o -v *
. . our servic
anew const 1 tut 10:1 greets Mr n. ?, century.
I?or thirty years of the iiiiieteontn
century we struggled iu cwrv way
against tho evils of a suffrage !>asod on
manhood only. We found in tlje first
days of that struggle that theory had
outrun practice and that reality had
yielded place to sentiment. At that time
wo had just emerged from an unsuccessful
stud disastrous war. Our propn
rt \? linil Ixiai* ? ? -- - - - -
ui/FM .->nt |Jl iiw.n , Olll" illMlUltions
had been destroyed, the fouudatiou
of our social fabric had boon overturned.
We were helpless. A victorious,
bat ungenerous political enemy had
crushed us to the earth; they had forced
upon us the recoguitum of theories that,
we knew could not he reduced to successful
practice. Wo were poor, weak
and defeated. Wo 'accepted the situation.'
We did our best to prove the
falsity of our convictions."
The coventor dwelt at length on the
disfranchisement of the ignorant negro,
regretting the necessity for it, saying:
"The campaign of 1^1)8 ended ino . ictory
for good g tvernment. Titar was not
a contest of passion hut r,C necessity.
When we came _ty power we desired
merely the security of life, liberty and
property. . Y\ e had seen all these menaced
by 120,000 negro votes cast as the
vote of one man. We had seen our
chief city pass through blood and death
in search of safety.
"We did not dislike the negro but we
did love good government. Wo knew
that he was ineapable of giving us that
aud wo resolved, not in auger, but lor
the safety of the state, to curtail his
power. We had seen what a struggle it
required to preserve cveu the form of
repuoncau government with liim as a
voter. The negro was not only ignorant?he
was clannish. The educated
among them who realized the danger to
the state in mass voting were unable to
free themselves from the power of its
ostracism."
The governor is strongly in favor of
general education, calling for increased
appropriations for this purpose. He says
further on this subject:
"Appropriations alone cannot remove
illiteracy from our state. With the appropriations
must come also an increased
interest in this cause which shall not
censo until every child can read an 1
write. The preachers, the teachers, the
newspapers and the mothers of North
Carolina must be unceasing in their efforts
to arouse the indifferent and compel
by the force of public opinion the attendance
of evex*y child upon the schools.
It is easier to accomplish this since the
amendment to our constitution raises
its solemn voice and declares that the
child who arrives at age alter 10OS cannot
share in the glorious privilege of
governing his state nor participate in
the policies of the nation unless ho can
read and write."
In the following strong language tho
governor declares the law must bo upheld:
"From Currituck to Cherokee the law
must havo full sway. The mpl> l,ns 5,0
place in our civilian**"*"- The,courts
are thucr*,,,**on "r 'ne constitution and
? j./rfrs tire, drawn from rile people.
If changes bo necessary in order to .s(!
cure a better and more certain administration
of justice, you, gentlemen of
the legislature, can make these changes,
hut it should bo distinctly and dually
understood of nil men that safety can
bo found only in obedience to law.
"I wish to say to the negroes of this
state that they have been misinformed
if they have heard that this administration
will be unfriendly to them. Their
every right under the constitution shall
be absolutely- preserved; they will find
security in right conduct and certain
punishment for failure to obey the law.
Let them learn that crimes which lead
to mob law must ceace and then mob
law shall curse our stato no more. I
call upon all upright negroes to aid me
in suppressing crime in nil its forms."
Concluding, he said:
"I have been elected as a Democrat. I
shall administer the high olllee to which
I have been called in accordance with
tho policies and principles of that great
party, hut 1 wish ? distinctly under
stood that I shall striro to he a just
governor of all the people without re.,.?1

CUSTOMS LAWS EFFECTIVE
| Solicitor tiouernl Argues That Islands
Are Not n Purt of United States Kor
Customs 1'urpo-es Until Congress
Mm 11 Have So Declared.
Washington, Jan. 15.?Solicitor General
Richards today luaclo reply to Mr.
Smith's argument in tho Hawaiian insular
caso now being heard before tho
^United States supremo court. Iu this
case, ho said, it was obviously the intention
of congress, as soon as practicable.
to treat the territory as part of the
United States for legislative purposes,
so that tho revenue and commercial
laws which npply in tho United States
should ojiernte there.
"But," ho Wont on, "before these
laws could bo put in operation iu tho
Hawaiian Islands it was necessary that
a poriod of prejiarutiou should intervene
after tho passage 01 tho resolution of
annexation.
"(Jn J my 7, 1898, when the annexation
resolution was passed, there was no
customs laws ot' the United States in operation
in Hawaii and no customs ollicers
of the United States there. Tho
customs laws of the republic ot Hawaii
were in for jo and tlioy wore tho only
laws of that character. It i< obvious,
| ivxorofoiv, tliac if tUo resolution of nn!
ucxation immediately abrogated -hocusj
toms laws of tho island tin.* t crritory
| would have boon loft without auv en!
toms law op*111 to the ships of tins world,
j The customs laws of the United States
could not have effective operation bocause
there were .uo agencies thero to
enforce thorn.
"If. then, the resolution of annexation
threw open the ports of Hawaii to
the world at the same time, according
to tho contention of opposing counsel, it
threw open tho jmrts of tho United
States to ships coming from Hawaii.
The effect of this would have been to
give an open door through Hawaii into
our ports. We could not inquire, when
goods come into the United States from
Hawaii, whether they had been brought
into Hawaii as an entrepot to the Unilod
States."
Mr. Riomrrrts argued that tlmt sort of
thing could not bo permitted, and ho
expressed the opinion that if congress
had believed such a consequence would
ensue, the resolution 01 annexation
would not have passed when it did, nor
until arrangements could have been
made to put in operation our customs
and commerce regulations immediately.
So far as customs matters are concerned,
evidently tho islands were not to bo
doomed part of tho United States for
customs purposes until congress should
havo further legislated tlio matter by
law, extending the United States customs
laws and regulations to the islands.
Ho paid attention to the annexation resolution,
saving that it did not malco tlm
I Hawaiian Islands a part of tlio United
I States, but o part of tlio territory of tlio
United States.
"It is," ho said, "obvious rlint terrifcory
annexed or ceded to the United
I States becomes 'a part of tho territory
of tho United States,' hut it does not become
'a part of tho United States' in
either a constitutional or legislative
sense until congress shall so determine."
In conclusion, Mr. Kichards said:
"In the annexation resolution it was
provided that tho customs regulations
of tho republic of Hawaii should continue
until congress should extend tho
customs laws of the United States to
tho island. It was not until tho passago
of tho act of April 550, 1900, that
tho islands become a part of tho United
States for customs purposes by the extension
of our laws to them."
SHOT AND HANGED HIMSELF

PAH-AMERICAN PARAGRAPHS
The Attitude of tireiit Britain lo
Cuuul Negotiations.
New York, Jnu. l."? ?A Tribuno dispatch
from iximtnn soys: Chinsi quoatious
being more crueiit, ia view of luo
signing of the agreement l>y Priuoa
Ohing ami Earl Li. it is considored probable
at the American embassy that
foreign officers will take decisive action l
upon the amended canal treaty thht I
week. The rejection of the atiienamentii i
will h<- an unpleasant surprise, if it bv j
brought about. Tliero is, however, no
detijiife.ussi.ruuco that tho ahiendiuenr.'i
wi.i euuei* uo accepted or rej cioa, un,
there is a hopeful teeling that tho foreign
office will take advantage of a favorable
opening tor bringing 50 years of
controversy to an end and promoting
good feeling between the two countries
Thoro will bo litrlo doubt that llio*
changes in the text will be sanctioned n!
the Davis amendment were out of the
way. This is tho chief obstacle, bccau>o
it is academic in form and vagao in application,
yet on parallel lines with the
Sue*/, convention.
England, by virtue of political eon^.
trol at Cairo, could close tho Suez canal
against warships in an emergeucy if
Lord Cromer wero instructed to do so,
and this policy might bo dictatod by
self defense if a hostile fleet were qt|,
tho way to India. Tho foreign oifceo
might have stopped Camnrn's fleet it
tno American government had suggested
that course during the war with
Spaiu. No request was made, nml
Admiral Oanuira went through tlx)
canal aud returned when lie found
that tbo fleet could not reacli the
Philippine islands. Hue Lord Cromer
might havo prevented either passage if
he had been directed to do so. The
same powers, reserved under the Davis
amendment for America in an emergency,
will virtually bo retained by
Euglaud over the Suez canal so long as
Egypt remains under her political control.
Competition In Navigation.

Tho Pacific Navigation steamer Quateniala,
