AFFAIRS IN HAWAILL Suicide of a Philadelphia Sailor—How the Hagsten Orphans Were Deported. HONOLULU, Sept. man. on board the P, and confined in the charge, committed suiciie on the 14th by 16.—Woolf, a sea- delphia, disrated nanging himse!f with his hammock lash- | ing. The body wasfound at an early hour in the morning, when the corporal went in to insyect his ceil. Captain Dyer believes that the man was insane. He actea peculiarly on several occasions. The dead man was an Austrign by birth, about 35 vears of age. The deplorable condition of the Hagsten orphans, who were sent to San Francisco from this city on the bark R.P. Rithet last month, is exciting considerabie atten- tion in Hono!ulu. Thechildren are now under the care of the Salvation Army at San Francisco. Immizration Commissioner Stradley, as well as the press, are condemning the Honolulu people for dumping their pau- yers in California. They are strongly op- posed to the children remsining in the country, as it would create a precedent for opentng the State to paupers. Notwith- standing all the San Francisco people have said about the matter, there is another side to the story. The Honolulu people cla'm that they acted in good faith, and it was not until the consent of Attorney- General Smith was obtained that the chilaren were sent up to San Francisco at all. The orphans were sent at the request of the Saivation Army, who claimed that | they would secure a landing and then care for the chiidren. They have no relatives in Hawail. An uncle and aunt are living in Wisconsin. The convention of the American Union party of Honolulu met last evening and nominated six candidates for the House of Representatives. The slection will be peid on the 29th inst. Thecandidatesare: Alatau T.Atkinson, ediior of the Hawaiian G. M. Robertson, a prominen torney; A. V. Gear, J. L. Kaulukou, 8. G. W.lder and L. L. McCandless. All the candidates are pledged to anrexation, O RS OUR FRUIT OFVER THE SEA, Zarge Consignment of American Pears ana Piums Sold in Lo.don.

Y., Sept. 23.—There of claiming after the second race yesterday which may have a sensational sequel. Roy Caruthers and Lucky Bald- win both claimed Pittsburg Phll's! Brooklyn bandicap winner, Howard | Mann, entered in the race at $2000 vaiua- | tion, and the California turfman got him. Baldwin’s candidate in the race was the Colt Bernadillo, which finished second. Caruthers' candidate was Song-and-Dance, which finished last. Baldwin thus had first sav, according to selling race rules. Baldwin deiegated bis claiming to his treiner, Frank Tayior. Caruthers declares he claimed Howard Marn in rood faith | and raced him, but he intimated that | Taylor took the horse to return him to Pittsburg Pnil.: *I will investigate the maiter,” said | Caruthers, *and if I find that Taylor left Howard Mann to prevent m:e from getting him I'll 1ay the matter before the Jockey Club, which wilf force Baldwin to show | his hand. I think that it is no more than fair to claim higb-class horses when ihey worth in order to get weight off their | backs. If we don’t put a stop to such | proceedings we, who do not hapven to have a lot of first-class horses, will never be able to win race At the Chess Tournament. BERLIN, GeErmaxy, Sept. 23.—The | tenth round of the international chess | tournament was continued to-day, when round six of the Berger schedule fur- nished the pairing. The game left unfin- hed between Schiffers and Biackburne in the ninth round yesterday was drawn. The following are the results of to-day's play: Cohn beat Englisch; Schlechter and Blackburne drew, as did Marco and Schiffers; Metger and Charousek ad- journed their game the second time late this evening; Janowskibeat Albin; Teich- mann wentdown before Alapin; Tschigorin albrodt and Caro drew; Burn and Zinkl adjourned their contest a second time late in the evening, and Suechting was creditel with a win against Bardleben (retired).

After the riders had finished Becker wheeled up behind Taylor and grabbed him by the shoulders. The colored man was thrown to the ground. Becker choked him inio a state of insensi: bility ana the police were obliged to 1n- | terfere. [t was fully fifteen minutes pe- | fore Taylor recovered consciousness and | the crowd was very threatening toward Becker. Becker claimed that Taylor crowded him into the fince during the race. Becker was disqualified and tie race was run over again, Tom Butler winning. it tina Farrell Hit Hard. HARTFORD, Coxy., Sept. 23 —At the O'Donnell knocked Charles Farrell all around the ring in two rounds and Far- rell’s manager threw up the sponge. Senator Elkins Intends to Ask the i President to Overrule McKenna's Opinion. CHICAGO, ILL., Bept. 23.—A special to the Inter Ocean from Washington says: Senator Eikins proposes to continue tne fight for section 22 and has telegraphed to the President to protest against Attor- ney-General McKenna's opinion and the Treasury Department's accepting it as mandatory. The Senator contends that this opinion is not law and that it has not the force of law, and that it should not be aliowed to stand in the way of a final de« cicion from the courts. While the Secretary of the Treasury may ask the Attorney-General for an opinion he is not bound by that interpretation of law, according to Senator Elkins’ reason- ing, and therefore urges the President to | direct the Treasury Department to coliect the discriminating duties under protest, that an appeal may be taken to the Su- preme Court, where a final decision can be had. He further points out that the President hason several occasions over- ruled his Attorney-General in such qpinions, anda that President McKinley ought io overruie the opinion of Attorney- General McKenna, because it is simply an interpretation of a statute without any constitutional question involved, and the courts alone can decide a question of law. This is the on'y way the Senator sees to ret the section before the courts, and he protests against the exccutive depart- | ment’s preventing an appeal to the courts by the opinion of his Atiorney-General against the law.

SAILISG OF THE HUMBOLDT. Big Crowd Watches the Steamer Get Ready for Her Trip From Seattls to St Michael. SEATTLE, WasmH., Sept. 23.—Soldiers and civilians mingied together in a busy crowd to-day on the Schwabacher dock where preparations were being made for the sailing to-night of the steamer Hum- boldt for 8t. Michael, Alaska. Lieutenant- | Colonel Randall with his twenty-five men from Fort Russell laoked fit to cope with the rigors and hardships of the winter that confronts them on the Yukon. The company had an outfit of 150 tons of | stores and provisions. Besides the baggage of the soldiers, the Humboldt carried 400 tons of steamboat machinery and pro- visions and 40,000 feet of lumber.

Money rolled into the box on Grady at §15, Masoero §15 and Lorena II §5 or §6, | keeping the ticket writers hustling for over half an hour. Masoero had the best of the start by two lengths when the barrier went up, and at- tempted to make a ruzaway race of it, but Grady kept within three lengths of him tll rounding the lower turn, when J. Jones on Lorena set sail and passed the pair. A hundred yards from the wire the mare had it on Masoero by half a length. Enos pullea his mount into Lorena II, throwing her off her stride. He was on even terras in an instani, and catching hold of Jones’ bris attempted to bring the mare back to him, but Jones belabored him over the head with the buttend of the whip until he released the rein, and | finished in front by a head. The judges declared the race off, but the boys escaped without even a reprimand. The other events were very interesting, as the heats were split up and two close finishes were made by Osito and Claudius. Summary : Trotting, 2:24 class— C. A.

A part of the detach- ment will be stationed at St. Michael and the rest will go up the_ river, being sta- tioned near the Alaska-British Coiumbia boundary. In an’interview to-night United States District Attorney Burton E. Bennett of Alaska said: *I have been quoted as say- ing that the greatest hardsnips tobe en- countered by the northern Argonauts would be met on White Pass, when, as a a matter of fact, it will not probably oc- cur on the pass, because they will hurry over in good weather. I don’t believe tuat 10 per cent of those who will go into the Yukon country will ever real.ze their anticipated fortunes. The majority will return to civilization after having spent what little money they could get together and with their constitutions broken.”” i BRITISH COLUMBIA LANDSLIDE, Half a Mile of Mountain Making for Thompson Fiver—#sheroft Resi- dents Excited. VICTORIA, B. C., Sept. 23.—Asheroft, | in the wmountains, on the line of the Cana- | dian Pecific Railway, isin a siate of ex- citement because of a movement of tne great mountain of gravel about a mile below the town. At1lo’cleck in the after- noon a large portion of the mountain broke off and started with a rumbling noise toward the Thompson River. The | portion in motion was about half a mile square and some 300 feet high. It moved siowly but surely, closing the channel of the river. All along the valley of the Thompson | for twenty miles balow Ashcroft the resi- dents are moving their families and be- longings in haste into the mountains, fearful of a repetition of the inundation of 1880, That flood was caused by a land- slide blocking the narrow gorge further down the river, holding the water pent up for fully thirty hours and causing great damage to property as well as the loss of one life, Hon. George B. Martin, chief commis- sioner of lands and works, who was then a resident of the district, says that after the slide of seventeen years ago the river was dammed all the way from Savonas to Ashcroft and the overflowing waters reached an altitude of forty feet. The flood, Mr. hartin says, was caused by the ranchers on the bench lands irrigating their farms until the water, reaching bed- rock, loosened the earth foundations, with the consequence that the mountain !slid down inio the Thompson with a mighty sweep. Immediately afterward alarge force of men were set to work at releasing the pent-up waters, and in less than thirty hours the troubled currents were finding their natural course down the Thompson. ol i PREDICTS A HURRICANE. Professor Wiggin Says There Will Be a Great Storm on the Korth Atlantic Coast. OTTAWA, Oxr., Sept. 23.—Profescor Wiggin predicts hurricanes and says: The announcement by the Marine De- partment that a hurricane is now moving up the Atlantic coast from the West In- dies is a meteorological event of ‘more than common interest. That a great storm is near is a meteorological fact The moon will be in conjunction with Jupiter and Mercury on the 25th, and Mars on the 27th. ‘Lhe moon crosses the celestial equator on the 25th, moving southward. She will be in conjunction with the sun on the 26th at1p. x, London time, and will be at her perigee. or near- est point in her orbit to the earth on the 28th. All or neariy all are dangerous ele-, ments for the mariner, for they indicate a storm on the afternoon of Wednesday the 29th, with high tides on the north Atlan- tic coast. . — e —— To Cure a Cold in One Day Take Laxative Bromo Quinine Tablets.

Says Fights of Partisans Can’t Wezaken the Foundation of the Republic. Glowing Tribute Pald to the Re- sources of Colorado, Particu- larly the Mines. DENVER, Coto., Sept. 23.—Comnptroller of the Currency James H. Eckels was the | guest of honor at a banquet given this evening at the Brown Palace Hotel by the | Denver Clearing-house Association. Over | 100 distinguished citizens of Colorado, | bankers, statesmen and others, who:ze names are associated with the upbuilding | of tuis city and the State, were presen Comptroller Eckels made an after-din- | ner speech, to which close attention was | paid vy his hearers, and at its close he was | warmly apolauded. Mr. E began by | emphasizing the fact that citizens ofall parts of the couniry are actuated by the same spirit, a desire for the good of the whole country, and that no master how fierce the fight between partisans may be | waged there is no danger of its weaken- | ing the foundations of the republic. | After pleading for a continuation of the feeling of mutual confidence so long maintained between the East and the West he said: 1t will not do for the East to boast of i(s pos- session of the surplus capital of the country which bas come with age and thriit and o portunities, or the West to point with over- weening pride to i1s stupendous resources and its wonderful advancement. The wenlth of the one but continues todiminish if notemployed, the other is of no avail if not developed. The advancement of both follows the same paih- way and centers in the same interests. Ihave t0-nignt no plea 1o make for the country’s ac- cumulated capital upon the one hand, nor for its undeveloped ricneson the other, except the plea that at a time when we are entering upou an era of betier times they may be | | brougnt nearer together and not driven wider apart. It isa plea consonant with the dic- tates of business judgment and accords with common-sense. It is a protest that may well be uttered by citizens everywhere, no matter what the measure of their interestsor the | financial tenets to which they bear allegiance. 1am not unmindful of the fact that u large majority cf the citizens of this State feet that they have in the economy of commerce been sorely injured in one of their great wealth- producing indusiries. If such a resuit has Iollowed they have not been leit wholly with- out compensating benefiis, nor have tiey suf- fered more keenly than at various timesin the country’s history have others who nave embarked in other iines of undertaking. The law of the commercial world through all its history 1s proved to be a law of continuous change. More than once New England and the East have been compelled to yield to other sectious of the country great industries which their people had hoped to build up for the fu- | ture. And in the years to come I doubt not but that other and greater changes will come upon them. It is not without the range of | ossibilities that the Carolinas may draw | Mussachusetts the cotton mill, ana the 8 of Tennessee and Colorado from Penusy the steel and iron industries. Butii they do, following the line of economic truth, some new development will be fostered which will more than meke adequate reparation for a seeming irreparable loss. I the citizen of Colorado has suffered de- spite that fact he can boast of a territory more nearly possessed ot all the things essential to the support of a people than any State within the borders of the Union, The fields of fruit and grain to which he may well point with pride here yield to the husbandman upon the piain, the produce for the laborer upon the mountain, while on a thousand hills are grazing innumerable cattle and sheep. Her gold wiil soon be greater in value than that of any sister State. To-day within the narrow confines of a single camp, and that of recent finding, is mined more thau one-twentieth of the annual gold productof the world, one- fifth of that founa within the United States.
