1898—TEN PAGES, THE PRESIDENT’S YACHT. Extensive Alterations That Have Made in the Dolphin. = MER ORIGINAL BUILDER WOULD NoT NOW RECOG- NIZE HER—A MAGNIFICENT SALOON IX WHICH DISTINGUISHED GUESTS WILL BE ENTER- ‘TAINED DURING THE NAVAL REVIEW. The U.S. S. Dolphin, otherwise known as the President's yacht, which isto take such a prominent part in the naval review, has re- cently undergone an important transformation at the Norfolk navy yard. Her general appear- ance is so changed that if ber builder, John Roach, were still alive he would not recognize her. In the words of one of her admire “She ua regular floating palace and is easily the finest yacht in the world. Neither the ezarewiteh nor the Duke of Edinburgh has « finer yaebt than this, and neither William K. nor Fred W. Vanderbilt has one as fine.” The Dolphin is a steel schooner, 214 fect long, 1,500 tons displacement and 2.240 horse power. As originally constructed she had her saloon under the gun deck. It was a little thing in which perhaps eight or ten persons could be en- tertained. fhe could not shelter as man that at night unless half of them sat up while they were aboard. Upon the main deck she | had a smail Louse. It was considered very fine because it was built of mahogany, but was too small for any but a private yacht. ‘A GREAT CABIN BUILT. In her reconstruction for use in the review that house has been lifted off the deck and « great cabin has been built clean across the ship and covering nearly a quarter of her length. ‘This is now the finest dining saloon on any vessel that rides the waters. ‘To construct this beautiful saloon the stee! | walls of the vessel's hull have been built so as to provide eight feet of head room in the sa- | loon. A splendid poop deci, which will make | afine promenade in cicar weather, provides «| ceiling for this saloon. The old galoon or | dining room will never again be used for public entertainments. When the Secretary of the ‘Navy invites the foreign flag officers to partake | of our government's hospitality next Saturday it will be in this new grand saloon that be will entertain them. The saloon is fifty feet loug. Thirty feet of it makes the dining saloon, and behind that is an after cabin twenty feet long. Both these rooms are decorated and fitted with | exquisite taste. The ceiling is snow white and ornamented by many electric bulbs of ground | glass with silver mountings. The walls are also | white, but running along the bases of them are | broad cushions upholstered in navy blue leather. | framed in mahogany. The floor is covered with large Smyrna rugs, and the chairs are of hand-carved mahogany especially designed for the ship. A SUPERP HALL. ‘The central ornament now in the saloon isa heavy mahogany extension table, closed so as to be of the proper size. When the Secretary or the President gives a dinner this table will be lengthened across the saloon and two longi- tadinal tables, built of mahogany especially for the purpose, will be added to it. These three tables will thea accommodate seventy-five diners, though sixty will find them more com- fortabie. The numerous large, square, plate- giass windows will be fitted with double sets of €legunt curtains so as to admit a soft light that will increase the beautiful effect of thiasuperb dining ball. It will be in the after cabin that the guests of our nation will assemble before being seated atthe tables. The after saloon has been ap- pointed and decorated to accord with the din- ing saloon. ‘The little old dining room below deck will hereafter be used for the meals of the high officials on board the ship when they are by themselves. Forward of this small dining room are two very large and beauttful cabins. One is for the President and the other is for the Secretary of the Navy, or either of those officials may distinguish an especial guest by inviting bim to make use of one. Each of these rooms bas « wide bunk of carved mahogany, as Dig asa bed ard elegantly curtained. At the foot of each bed is a suction ventillating tube. A lavatory, chairsand a carved mahogany desk are among the appointments in each room,and that for the President contains« miniature book case. Abaft the private dining room is a beautiful lit- tle stateroom for any lady who may stop aboard over night. A completely andartistically fitted bath room connects with this dainty boudoir. | ‘This ison the port side. On the starboard side are two smail state rooms and a eupboard stored with delicate crystal and sbell-like | china. A notable array of cut glass ware fine crystal decorates a sideboard in the p: vate dining room. In case of need the large | transoms or cushions beside the walls of the | Private dining room ein be curtamed off to | make four bunks. This can be done in the | great new saloon under the poop also, and ten more persons can find siceping accommoda- tions there. But it is not likely that this use will often be made of this great ball, whose al- most sole end is to afford a means for our gov ernment to entertain the naval dignitaries of the old worid who compliment us by taking part in our review. | ‘TO ENTERTAIN DISTINGUISHED GUESTS. The Dolphin will be used principally during | the progress of the review in the official enter- | tainment of the princes, admirals, vice ad-| mirals and other high officers who are to com- mand the visiting warships. She will be miti- ated to this use by Secretary Herbert on Sat-| urday next iz a banquet given in honor of all | the principal naval officers, foreign and/ domestic, then in Hampton Roads. The Dolphin will await the Secretary and | party at Aunapolis on Friday next and take | them to Hampton Roads in time for the cere- monies arranged for Saturday. Then the Dol- phin will go to New York with the tleet on Mon- day and the Secretary and party will go with At the review proper in New York sbe will | become the Fresident’s boat and will carry Mr. | Cleveland through the long lane between the | two lines formed by the foreign and domestic | ships anchored in the North river.

An Electrie Car Crashes Into = Grip Car at Fourteenth and U Streets. Yesterday afternoon about 4 o'clock s colli- sion between an electric car on the Rock Creek Electric railroad and a cable car on the 1th street line oceurred at the Mth and U street crossing, which ended in serious damage to the property of both railroad companies, and the serious injury of Miss Minnie Hamilton and her aunt, Miss De Shields. Miss Hamilton is « daughter of Mr. John A. Hamilton, formerly of the firm of Barbour & Hamilton, wholesale grocers. Yesterday was the first day’s opera- tion of the U street extension of the road east of 14thstreet. The cable train consisted of = grip carand one conch, and was operated by Gripman Shaner. Both the grip car and coach were filled’with passengers on their way to Mount Pleasant. The electric car also had its share of passen- gers, and, like those in the cable car, there were many ladies and children among them. ‘As the cars approached the crossing the signal bells were sounded, and even when it was apparent to the passengers that there was going to be a collision there was ample time to again sound the signals. ‘This was done by the | men on the cars instead of cutting off the motor and applying the brakes, and along went the cars as thougheach had the right of way. There | was screaming and cries, and in less time than | the story can be told the cars | CAME TOGETHER WITH A TERRIBLE CRASH. ‘The motorman on the electric car had set | his brake and jumped, while the gripman re- | mained at his post. He set his brake in hopes | of saving the rear coach, and in this he was successful, but the electric car struck the grip car and overturned it, throwing the passengers to the concrete pavement. When Miss Hamilton and her aunt were picked up the former had sustained cuts on her ead in addition to other bruises, and her aunt, it is thought, received severe internal injuries. Both indies were taken to Daniels’ drug store and were afterward sent home. Among the passengers on the grip car was Mr. Join C. iams of the Baltimore Sun, who was with his wife and two children, but they escaped in- jury. The passengers on the electric car | excaped unhurt, with the exception of a lively shaking up, and those on the coach of the cable train received similar treatment. There was no flagman at the crossing where the accident | happened and the passengers on both cars think there was plenty of time for the gripman and motorman to have stopped their cars in time to have prevented the accident if they had so desired. ANOTHER COLLISION. ‘There was also a collision on the Alexandfia and Mount Vernon electric railroad yesterday afternoon. Two cars going in opposite diree- tions met on the single track between two sid- ings. One of the cars was not on time, and it is thought that the motorman was trying to gain the time lost and reach the siding abea: beiore the other ear had left 1%, but was unable to do so. It was stated in Alexandria last even- ing that one of the motormen made no effort to stop his car until it was entirely too late, and that the other one did not have time to reverse the current and push back out of the way. The cars were slightly damaged, but no one was in- jured. es NEWS FROM KOCKVILLE. Gossip in Regard to Judze Al: pointment—Notes.

Correspondence of The Evenms Star. g Hratrsvitiz, Mp., April 17, 1898. One of the largest and most enthusiastic primary meetings that has ever taken place in this village was held at Wells’ Hall last Satur- day evening for the purpose of nominating three candidates for town commissioners to be voted for on the first of May. The meeting was called to order at 8 o'clock and Mr. A. R Holden was madechairman and Mr. H. 0. Em- mons secretary. The chairman stated the ob- ject of the meeting and said that the court of appeals had decided against single tax and that it would be buried so deep at this coming elec- tion that it would never be resurrected. Mr. L. W. Habercom, at the request of Dr. Chas. A. Wells, delivered an address, in which he stated that as the court of appeals had decided i tax the taxes for the next fiscal would be 15 cents on the $100, “what they were originally. He arraigned’ the commissioners for the man- ner in which they had acted in the single tax matter and said that one of them had used his office for political pi 8 without regard for the feelings of others, that the proper im- rovements had not been made and that the mps and sidewalks were a disgrace to Hyatte- ville. He suggested that the oid rule of relect- ing candidates for commissioners from different parts of the town be observed, and that the meeting would nominate men who would take affairs in hatid and manage them properly. ‘Mr. Thomas M. Moran then offered the fol- lowing resolution, which was adopted: “Whereas the present board of commissioners ata meeting held on the 30th of last June changed the mode of levying the local taxes by exempting all improvemen's, and whereas the court of appeals of the state having decided that levy is unconstitutional and the act of 1892 null and void; now, therefore, be it re- solved, that we, the citizens of Hyaitsville, in mass meeting assembled, believing the adoption of sipgle tax by the board to have been un- called for, unwive and unjust, do hereby ex- tend our heartfelt thanks to the citizens who were instrumental in bringing relief to our lage by obtaining this important decision from the courts.” m again took the floor and criti action of Commissioners Ralston, Britt and Long in forcing single tax upon the community, Dr. Chas. A. Wells, Mr. Francis H. Smith and Mr. Joseph A. Aman were placed in nomi- nation and unanimously declared the choice of the meeting as candidates for town commis- sioners. Mr. Thomes M. Moran made a motion io the effect that the candidates nominated at the meeting for commissioners be instructed, if | elected, to rent a room in which to publicly conduct the business of the board and that the citizens be notified when meetings of the same were to be held. He stated that a similar mo- tion had been adopted at the last citizens’ primary, but had been ignored by the present board; that there were many persons who were oppored to attending commissioners’ meetings when held at private houses, and it would be well to have them ata public piace. Mr. Eu- gene Fowler offered an amendment to the mo- tion that it be the sense of the meeting that the commissioners were to do these things and the amendment was carried. Messrs, Geo. N. Walker, Chas, H. Welsh, Paul F. Tricou, James B. Burnside and A. Lan- caster, jr.. were appointed a committee to have charge of the campaign. - Dr. Wells, when called upon to say something about the proposed electric light plaat, stated that the incorporators intended to exert every effort to make it a success, but that they needed the co-operation of the citizens. Mr. Habercomb stated that the single tax case had set Hyattsville back a couple of years, and suggested that citizens should go before the | next legislature and request it to grant the town a new charter, or to make certain amend- ments to the present one. ‘After speeches by Messrs. Thos. H. Latimer, John E. Latimer and Dr. A. M. Buck Mr. Habercomb moved that the executive commit- tee be authorized to call a public meeting in | the near future for the purpose of having the | doctrines of single tax exposed by speakers familiar with the subject. Mr. Thomas Hi. Latimer opposed the motion on the ground tat singie tax was dead. Mr. Burnside also opposed the motion, which, however, was carried. Mr. H. 0. Emmons spoke vigorously against single tax, and the mevting then adjourned.

Friday, April 14, was doly observed by the Public schools of Maryland as Arbor day, and. the program for schools by the state authorities was duly carried out by both of the schools of Laurel. In school No. 1 additional interesting exer- cises were added to the program and there was Drosent quite a large number of the parents of the pupils and friends of the school, and all were delighted with what they saw and heard. In addition to the literary features of the exer- cises several trees were planted and the trees planted on former similar occasions were pruned | and cared for. In school No. 3 the exercises were very in- teresting and instructive, though the program was not quite so extensiveas in No.1. The usual number of trees were planted with appro- printe ceremonies, and many visitors were Present. THE SCHOOLS NOT TO BE CLOSED. The public schools of Prince George's county, asstated in Tux Stan, were closed inst Friday on acco unt of the exhaustion of the funds at the disposal of the county school board. These schools have heretofore been kept open for two months longer than the present scholastic year, but the pressure for new school houses and the better equipment of all school buildings has made this action by the school board an im- perative necessity. The citizens of Laurel have determined to provide for the continuation of the schools. A subscription school will be conducted for two months by the teachers of school No. 1, and ar- rangements will probably be made for the | tuition of many of the scholars whose parents | are not able to pay even the small sum charged. ‘The trustees of school No. 3, Messrs. Cull, Kelier and Alexander, called a meeting of the friends and parents of the scholars attending that school last Friday night, and the school will be kept open and conducted in all respects as if authorized and paid for by the county school board, and the examination exercises and graduations from the High School grade will take plaze at the close of the term, and the cer- tificates granted will have the same validity if granted regularly.

The grand jury will beagain | in session next Wednesday and there 1s every prospect that Thomas will be speedily sent to the penitentiary instead of lying in the county jail till the October term of court. pponbie’ tabs SANDY SPEING. Correspondence of The Evening Star. Saxpy Srarxg, Mv., April 15, 1898, Tho Whist Club held its last meeting this season at Norwood by invitation of Mr. and Mrs. Hurry W. Davis, who borrowed a house for the evening from Mr. and Mra, Joseph. Moore. rence Gilpin has established him self in bachelor fashion at the fine old farm formerly the home of Mahloa Chandlee, who, falling heir to the property when but nine days old, possessed it for ninety-nine years and six months. The store and post office at Ednor, kept by Mr. L. War, was entered again Sunday night last, the carpenter's shop adjacent furnishing the tools as heretofore. A revolver and nine dollars worth of goods were taken and the burglar evidently treated himself to a much- needed pair of shoes judging by the condition of the boots left in exchange. Mr. War has been successful in the arrest and conviction of the robber on three previous occasions. ‘The amateur minstrel troupe led by Mr. Harry W. Davis performed at Brighton Grange Hall on Wednesday evening, the proceeds of which are to be devoted to repairing the rec- tory of St. Jobn’s parish at Brookeville. the schools gave a half holiday on Arbor day. but owing to recent heavy rains not as many trees were planted as usual, The surveyors of the electric road between Ashton and Baltimore completed their survey on Thursday. mt route selected crosses the Patuxent between Mr. Robert Hard- ing’s b6use and Snell’s bridge, thence through farms belonging to the Hopkins estate, Alban G.

D. ©. MONDAY, APRIL 17. THE HAWAIIAN SITUATION. Signs of Hope Among the Supporters of the ‘Deposed Queen. A special to the New York Sun dated Hon- olulu, April 9, cays: “It appears that noth- ing of importance has occurred at Hawaii since the Ist instant, when Commissioner Blount or- dered down the America® flag and withdrew ‘the marines. It is evident, however, continues the dispatch, that the Americans’ here are greatly disturbed over the attitude of the queen's followers. | Within twenty-four “hours ‘Farlane and others a; to have received some assurances from Mr. Blount that give them extreme satisfaction, and reports of @ speedy restoration of the queen to power are heard on every band. One thing is sure, the queen is morally certain that she will soon re- turn to the Iolani palace. Her newspaper or- gan, the Bulletin, voiced this sentiment last night in this significant paragraph: A SIGNIFICANT PARAGRAPH. “A pointer has come to a press representative to expect important developments at any time. It is probable that if the United States commis- sioner obtains proof that Minister Stevens aided the revolution he will put things back the way they were betore that event. ‘This will proba- bly be etrenuouly denied, as was the first inti- mation, telegraphed by E. C. MacFariane, that a commission was to be sent here to investigate the situation.” ‘The provisional leaders ridicule this report, but it is easy to see that they are greatly dis- satisfied with the reticence of commissioner Blount and his apparent intimacy with the royalist leaders, ‘The Alameda, which arrived yesterday from the United States, brought back Prince David, Paul Neumann, prince of bohemians, the envoy of the deposed queen, and MacFarlane, the secret representative of Kaiulani, who was sent to Washington by her father, Cleghorn. A PANIC AMONG AMERICANS. The reception of the royalists created almost panic among Americans. All the leaders had anair of unmistakable triumph. Col. Mac- Farlane reported today that he had seen Mr. Blount last night. and that the commissioner, with ahearty grasp of the hand, said: “My program is only half finished.” Others sy that the comm: iy promised to undo the work of Minister Stevens completely and restore the old condition of things. If this report is true, and circumstances bear it out strongly, the Hawaiian Islands will become the inferno of the Pacific in more than a vol- canic sense. President Dole and other conservative men declare that this restoration story is simply a device of the rovalist leaders to keep the na- tives from joining the annexation clubs. M ter Stevens believes this, but he bas lost so much prestige by the fact that his protectorate has been disavowed that no one pays any at- tention to him. For a short time he was monarch of all he surveyed, but now no one does him reverence. MR. BLOUNT'S ATTITUDE, Some criticism is made that Mr. Blount’s at- titude toward those who approach him is one of suspicion, and he certainly has taken no one into his confidence. Provisional government, missionary and Kanaka fare alike. He has gone further with none than to ask questions. He answers none, and the questions hg asks seem to come to his mind slowly. He mingles not in the numerous social circles here, which upon his arrival were in a flutter to count him as one of them, and manifests no desire to study from observation the commercial condi- tions of the country. His methods of work are those of the committee room, and he ap- plies himself peraisten tis, leaving the hotel grounds only for an afternoon ride, which he takes dressed in a brown duster and slouch hat, which to the native mind is not the dress of an “Alii,” as ali foreign offic‘als are. But with all his application to bis. work Mr. Blount makes slow progress, and must continue to do £0 while he retains his present methods. BUSINESS PROSTRATED. Meanwhile business remains prostrated and all classes, excepting those who thrive on un- certamty aud excitement, are heavy sufferers. The effect of delay on opposition factior demands serio ration. ‘The present government ix provisional and constituted to be nothing else. A council of state filling own vacancies. perpetuating itself, auditing its own accounts and directing the expenditure of the public funds not appropriated to it by legislative act. is oven to dangers of dissen- sions in the ranks of those who put it in power. There are no indications of such dissen- sions, however, and they would not arise on any question except the overtures for annexation are rejected. As for the Hawaiians it will be even harder to hold them toget but Mr. Blount ix considered responsible for the maintenance of peace, and there is no talk here now of any danger tocither side. Presi- dent Dole stated’ this morning that the pro- Visional government could run along for a Year as at present constituted. Long before that time the action of the United States govern- ment would be deeided upon. Should annex: tion be thought inadvisable, the question will arise of tendering the sovercignty of the islands to Great Britain. Most of those in charge of the provisional government would be in favor of doing so. ‘The restoration of the monarchy is forever out of the question, A republic just yet is also an impossibility. Kaiulant, under an American protectorate, is suggested as a compromise, but this is even more of an im- possibility. With Kaiulani the influences would Britieh, and in such case it would make little difference what was the flag over the govern- ment house. oe ¥ IN AMERICA. The Rain Gives Way to Sunshine in New York. The Duke of Veragua, the eleventh lineal descendant of Christopher Columbus, awoke yesterday morning, for the first time, in the land discovered by his illustrious ancesto: ‘The dreary, rainy weather in which he landed from the New York had given place to a bright. sunshiny morning. more like that to be e pected in the duke’s native country. A Spanish flag floated from his window in the Hotel Waldorf, on the 5th avenue side, in honor of the distinguished guest within. Lieut. Commander Dickens of the United States navy and Mrs. Dickens, who are to serve as pilots to the ducal party during their stay in the United States, and John Austin Stevens, representing the mayor and municipal commit~ tee of one hundred, paid their respects to the foreign visitors and offered to accompany them to mass at St. Patrick's Cathedral. Their services being accepted, the party left the Hotel Waldorf for tie cathedral in two carriages, The arty was composed of the Duke of Veragua, Eis wife, Elizabeth of Aguilora, Duchess of Veragua; his daughter, Maria, and his son, the duke’s brother, the Marquis of Barboles, ‘and his nephow, Commander Dickens and Mrs. Dickens and John Austin Stevens. The duke and his brother were both very plainly dressed, wearing a Prince Albert black coat and vest, dark tweed trousers and silk hat, ‘The dresses of the ladies were even more severe in their simphcity of style. When the party arrived at the cathedral a small crowd was on Sth avenue awaiting the duke’s arrival. Many deferentiaily paid their respects by doffing their hats, to which the duke responded in kind, A rather painful de- lay ensued, during which’ the party remained outside awaiting an invitation toenter. They Were finally conducted up the middle aisle to the front seat on the left-hand side. The duke’s son and daughter were given chairs in front of the altar. Solemn high mass in honor of the occasion was celebrated. Archbishop Corrigan occupied the throne. On the one side was the Rev. J. M. Lavelle and on the other the Rev. J. N. Connolly. ‘The Rev. Henry T. Newey was cel- ebrant; the Rev. P. Daly, deacon; the Rev. T. H. Murphy, subdeacon, and the Rev. W. 8. Mo- Laughlin, master of ceremonies. The sermon was preached by the Rev. W. J. B. Daly. VERAGUA’S FI! sizty boys, also sang. mong the prominent persons present were dhiams of Boston aud the Danish consul, who occupied a seat next to the ducal ty. PYflor the first gospel the Rev. M. J.
