C., June 18.—The United States transports City of Peking, City of Syd- | ney and Australia arrived here on the 1st fnst. The voyage down was pleas- ant and the vessels traveled abreast most of the way, although it was nec- essary for both the Peking and Aus- tralia to slow up to wait for the City of Sydney.- soon as the three vessels were | sighted all Honolulu turned out to| welcome the soldiers. The docks were | lined with people, and as the vessels entered the harbor the spectators | velled themselves hoarse. Such a | scene of énthusiasm had never been | witnessed in Honolulu. When the ves- | sls docked it was late, so the order | given to allow no one ashore. The | next morning about hau of the | troops were allowed to land. During | the day they were given the freedom of the city.

But the Berlin Press Generally Continues Its Unfriendly Tone Toward America. ‘BERLIN, June 18.—Emperor Wil- Ham'’s sentiments in regard to the war between Spain and the United States have considerably changed during the past month. A member of his Majes- ty’s court Informed a correspondent that the persistent statements of the American and British press, *“often coupled with insulting comment, alleg- ing the Emperor intends to actively in- terfere in behalf of Spain and imputing to his Majesty sentiments which were actually foreign to him at the opening of hostilities, have greatly annoyed the Emperor. and the constant reiter- ation of the erroneous statements as to SALUTING BATTERY. MAT RESORT 10 THE LAW San Jose’s School War| Not Ended. WOMAN’S CLUB AGAIN ACTS‘t SECOND PETITION IN FAVOR OF | ¥ . MRS. CLEMENT. Points Out That New Charter Pro- visions Were Violated When Her Successor Was Named. | 4 | Epecial Dispatch to The Call. ‘ BAN JOSE, June 18,—The Woman's | Club, at a largely attended meeting | this afternoon, again took up and dis- ed the dismissal of Mrs. A. B ent, Depu City Superintendent of Schools, to make room for Miss Irene Hankenson, who is a friend of “Boss™ Rea. A couple of weeks ago the Wo- men’s Club passed resolutions asking the City Boardof Education to reinstate Clement, but these were ignored the School Trustees and pigeon- | ed. The :natter has been vigorously ussed during the past couple of s and the action of the Board of | wee Education has been bitterly condemned. The resolutions adopted to-day are stronger than the others, and point out | | of | Clement, where a provision of the new charter has been violated by the appointment s Hankenson. Under the new charter a person to be-appointed to a deputvship must have been a resident of the city for at least two years. Miss Hankenson has n r resided in San Jose. Miss Hankenson was elected at a special meeting, and this is claimed to have been illegal. The resolutions unanimously adopted | by the Woman’s Club and ordered pre- sented to the City Board of Education are: To the Honorable Board of Bducatfon: | | Whereas, the chartér of the city of San Jose particularly provides (Artlele X1). 4) that “all city deputies must ded in the city of San Jose at . the rules ucation esp cify (article IT) ““‘that no busi be transacted at a special meet- ard of Education except that ch meeting was called”; and, as, the recent meeting of the Board ucation, at which teachers anl a superintendent of schools said to have been elected, called “to recommend ° and teachers” only, and, therefore, without power to elect a Deputy City School Superintendent; and, whereas, the lady whose name was then presented and voted for for the office of City Superin- | tendent is and has been a resident of Gil- | roy, and, therefore, not eligible for any | %e'pntyship in San Jose schools; therefore, e it Resolved, That the San Joss Woman's Club respectfully requests the Board of Cducation to reappoint Mrs. A. B, the Incumbent, to the office of Deputy City School Superintendent at the next regular meeting. Mrs. Clement has been Assiftan! City Superintendent of Schools for the past six yea. and is a most efficlent offi- cial. Shé is very preminent and has | 2 large number of Influential friends. The validity of the provision of the charter quoted In the resolution will likely be tested In court if the Board of Education insists on Miss Hankenson holding office. District Attorney for Alaska. WASHINGTON, June 1S, — General Freiderichs will be appointed United States District Attorney for Alaska in a few davys. This iz sure. He has the strongest Kind of indorsements, not only from the California_delegation but from Senators Baker of Kansas and Cullom of DNlinois, as well as Congressman Joy of Missouri and Curtis of Kansas. firCTRODE > K794 VAARS TN 1Y, ry 809 Market Strect, Corner Fourth.

The visiting troops were intro- duced to the President by members of the National Guard and citizens gen- erally. The utmost freedom prevailed, the affair being very informal. To each man the Chief Executive gave a word of welcome to Honolulu. At 10 o’'clock the California and Ore- gon troops were landed from their re- | spective vessels and started to march | to the executive grounds. Cheers were given them as they marched through | the streets. The feast was served by the ladies of this city. Rows of tables were covered with appetizing dishes | and there was more than enough to go around. An event unique in Hawatian history and one having pecullar interest at this time took place on board the United States cruiser Charleston on June 4, when Prince David Ilawananakoa and Cupid Kalanianaole presented to the warship a glorfous American flag in the name of the Queen Dowager, 17~p- folani, and the Hawallan people. The ceremony was simple, but beautiful and impressive to a degree, and bears di- rectly on the growing conflience and friendship of the native Hawallans to the great American nation over the seas. It was a history making event | in the relations of the two countries | which have been so closely drawn to- | gether in the last quarter or a century, The ceremony took place on the main deck of the Charleston, :nd was wit- | nessed by the entire diplomatic corps | and the leading officers of the army and navy of the United State- now in Ha- waflan waters and on Hawailan sofl, Three Kamehameha School students, all native Hawalians, tried to enlist with Colonel Summers of the Oregon Regiment for the trip to Manlla.

Two men were left behind. One was discharged gor disability and the other is in a local ospital ermany’s officlal attitude belng_ un- | PI¥ the ca unfriendly to the United States have displeased Emperor Willlam exceed- ingly. The informant of the correspond- ent continued: “After the repeated officlal assur- ances which our Government has given to maintain the strictest and most loyal neutrality, his Majesty's brief but pointed declaration to the same effect in a speech from the throne, at the closing of the Reichstag, in which he testified to the unbroken friendship between the two countries, it is down- right folly to speak of Germany's ulte- rior motives in connection with the war. There has not been a single act or word from the Government which could be construed as unfriendly to the United States, nor has the Govern- ment any such intention in the future. It is difficult to understand the train of reasoning by which the Americans conclude that either the Emperor or the Government is unfriendly to them. Either as a nation or as a belligerent, Germany has always kept faith in poli- tics and in diplomacy. Why, then, this attempt of the American and British press to construe every act as an un- friendly step? Naturally the Emperor and the Government are seriously an- noyed at the wholly groundless charges. Patience {8 a virtue, but there is a limit to it.” In contrast' to the foregoing official utterance there are a varlety of indi- cations In regard to the Philippines. The officlals of the Forelgn Office say Germany’s strong naval display at Ma- nila is made merely to protect German subjects and a part of the press adopts the same attitude, based on the For- elgn Office statement, saying the impu- tation that Germany meant to interfere in the American operations or in the American occupation of the Philippine Islands is baseless, as Germany’s naval force there is altogether too small for such a purpose. Nevertheless, many editorials are couched in quite a different spirit. For instance, the Marine Politische Corres- pondenz, which has close relations with the Government, says |t expects the concentration of the German forces will have ‘“permanent results,” and advo- cates Germany obtaining from “the re- )immk‘ of the Philippines,” a point d'appul, similar to the German base of operations at Kiaochau Bay, while the Vassische Zeftung says: “The nresence of a powerful international fleet at Ma- nila deubtless means not only the pro- tection of the European popuiation, but the protection of the interests of the powers which have to safeguard their advantages and prevent injury te their interests acquired in the past and pre- vent the Philippines being torn from Spain. Germany and Russia, France, ingland and Japan will not supinely submit to see the future of the I?hlllxh pines led into new paths nor will they relinquish the right to co-operate in such a new group of foreign interests.” The Kreuz Zeitung, the main Con- servative organ and a paper which is in close touch with tiie Government, after claiming the United States cannot pos- sibly want the Philippines says: *“This will naturally result in the Philippines being restored to _pain by the Ameri- cans. But {t s, of course, doubtful whether at the elose of the war Spain will be strong enough te keep any colo- nies and it is aleo doubtful if the is- lands will be able to govern themselves. So, in any case, there will be difficulties, the final outcome of which it is impos- sible to foresee.” : Generally speakinz the German | pawsapavers continue thair unfriendly | tone toward America though they are somewhat more cautious. All the re- cent news from Cuba and the Philip- pines is interpreted as being un- favorable to the United States, and the Guantanamo Bay affair is dubbed a de- feat unqualifiedly. Nevertheless the papers are now printing numerpus com- munications from pro-Americans pro- testing against the persistent abuse and lander to which the Americans have been subjected since the opening of the war. In spite of denials from Madrid Spain continues her underground efforts to | prejudice the powers in her favor. On Wednesday last Senor Castillo, the Spanish Embassador to France, arrived at St. Petersburg to support the efforts of Count Villa Gonzalo, the Spanish Embassador at St. Petersburg, in the | latter’s efforts to induce the Russian | Minister of Foreign Affairs, Count Muravieff, to join France and possibly Germany in intervening in Spain’s be- half. Senor Castillo expected to return via Berlin in the event of receiving en- couragement at St. Petersburg, which, however, is doubted. Owing to the fact that Germany has not fulfilled the terms of the commer- clal treaty by which she undertook to grant exceptionally favorable rates to Russian grain and other products, Russia has sent Germany an ultimatum on the subject, and unless the prom- ised rates are made effective on the Prussian rallroads by August 1, severe reprisals will be undertaken on impor- tant German imports. The best informed people belleve the Brussels sugar convention will result in the abolition of bounties in spite of French and Austrian opposition, ow- ing to Great Britain's threat to place extra dutles on sugar imported from states giving bounties. The industrial federation has sent a memorial to the Bundesrath, praying that American bi- cycles, which heretofore have been | classed as fine ironware, be hereafter | classed as vehicles, thus raising the duty on them from two to three marks to twenty to forty marks, or 20 per cent advalorem per wheel. The Socialist party, which has thus | far condemned high duties on Ameri- | can goods, is now, through its organ, | the Neue Zeitung, advocates a Euro- pean tariff league against the United States with a view of killing Ameri- can competition. A decree has been {ssued dealing with the liabilitv of foreigners resid- ing in Germany to military service. The rules heretofore governing the cases of Americans are not changed; but a more strict enforcement of them has been ordered. The United States Em- bassy is now dealing with a number of cases arising from the decree, nota- bly the case of an American residing whose sons were born in America, but who married and settled here. They are now teld to return to America or serve in the army. The failure of Joseph Leiter, the Chi- cago grain operator, is much comment- | ed on here as being a “lesson to greedy speculators.” The commercial papers hold Leiter responsible for the revolu- tions which have occurred In Italy and elsewhere. SHOT BY A VAQUERO. Agent of the Mexican Government Wounded Near Tia Juana. SAN DIEGO, June 18.—J. W. Grace, an agent of the Mexican Government, was shot by a Mexican vaquero near Tia Juana this morning. Grace had gathered a number of horses at Tia Juana, the animals being designed for the Mexican cavalry. While driving them across the line Grace became in- volved in a difficulty with Joe Montijo, one of the vaqueros, and the latter fired five shots at his employer, one of them wounding him in the arm. Mon- tijo arrested by Mexican rurale: ADVERTISEMENTS. “The enemy is coming: To the fort for yous lives!”| When a wise man re- | \ 7\, ceivesa plain warning | ~ of danger, e does not | wait to let it overtake /him: he seeks every Teasonable means to fight it off.

It vitalizes and invigorates the entire constitution. It helps the liver to filter out all billous impurities. It gives the digestive and nutritive er?na power to extract nourishment from the food and turn it into rich, red, healthy blood. Tt creates appetite, good digestion, and solid, muscular strength. 1t is far superior to the mere temporary stimulus of malt-extracts.
