HONOLULU, July 16.—Harold M.

Then came back the news that he had been chosen National Committee- man for the Territory at the National Re- publican Convention at Philadelphia, and this seemed to bear out the impression that he intended to make his home in Ha- | wait. It is all but definitely announced that Hawail will no longer be his home, exeept ssibly as his official residence. Mrs. Sewall, who left on the Rio on June 29, fter a visit with her mother in San Fra; cisco, will join Mr. Sewall in Bath, Me.

Just where they will make their home after that is not decided, It is said, however, that Mr. Sewall wili seek another diplomatic appointment from the President. If this is so his p tional Committee will not be a bad basi | for the applicaiion in case President M- | Kinley is re-elected. In that event he could be nominated by the President from Hawail, as well as from Maine, depend- ng _on which hLe considered his residence at the time. - - WINDWARD DISABLED.
