As Moreno and Wucox daily appear as "exhibits" in the case, the estimate by Congressmen or the character oi the men who seek to rule Hawaii id not edifying. The questions regarding the status of Puerto Rico have some influence on the Hawaiian matter. The Piesident ia in favor of giving that island tree trade in sugars. The Senate is disposed to place a duty on these sugars, amount- ing to 25 per cent of the present tariff rates. Now, if Hawaii is at once brought within the customs laws of Congress, the President may use that as a precedent for urging free trade with Puerto Rico. Not that he desires to embarrass Hawaii in any way, for he does not, but he feels the awful responsibility of caring lor the million of suffering people in Puerto Rico who are now American citizers. He is daily informed of their wide spread distress, and he believes that only free trade will relieve them. The Senate Commit- tee on Insular Affairs listens every day to the details of the miseries of this wretched million, who are now made wards of the United States, and means to aid them, but the committee refuses to follow the President in conceding free trade. Within the last three days the expan- sion business has developed novel polit- ical aspects. In view of the coming election the Democrats may try to force the Republicans to a very distinct an- nouncement of their interpretation, of the Constitution. If the Republicans insist that the Constitution does of its own force extend to all American ter rltory, th? T emcrats will uree. dnr ing the coming campaign, that Puerto Rico and the Philippines have been Drought within the Constitution, and therefore ten millions of the cheapest laborers are now American citizens and must be used and respected ftccordine ly. The object of this movement is to discredit the Republican party with the laDormg voters. A prominent Repub ncan ana member of the Houss said yesterday, that this attitude of the political parties might have some in fluence In delrying prompt action on tne iriawaiian bill. w. N. A. MOLOKAI'S MALARIAL F2JVER. jno Abatement Since Dr. Peterson's j Investigation Last Montn. f Malarial fever has evidently taken a determined . hold of . the Ksuakakal side of the island of Molokal, according to a letter received from Dr. Schwallle by the Board of Health yesterday. In fact the fever has so alarmed the In- habitants that they have requested aid of some kind from Honolulu. No physi- cians are at present available here, but medicines will be forwarded. The plan- tations will also be requested to allow public use of their stock of medicines, to be filled later by supplies from the Government. Dr. Schwallle's letter reads: Kaunakakal, Molokal, Feb. 8, 1900. Board of Health, Honolulu. Sirs: There is no abatement of the fever here. There are about twenty-fiv- e cases outside and on the plantation at Kamalo, and about forty cases here. Most of the casea are malaria with some typhoid and dysentery. They are scattered along about fifty miles of coast, and it is impossible to give them all the necessary medical attention. The ror.ds are In a very bad condition since the heavy rains. If you can give us a remedy the people here would ap- preciate it You will probably receive letters from others. Very respectfully, W. A. SCHWALLIE. M.D. Hawaiian Mail. The postal authorities have announc- ed that during the existence cf the bu- bonic plague at Honolulu the regular mail steamers stopping there will car- ry only mails for the Island of Oahu. It is announced that mails for Kauai will be dispatched on next Sunday by the steamer and for Maul and Hawaii by the steamer Cleveland on ep-- -. Tuesday. The horse transport Cone-mau- gh sailed yesterday for Hilo. but did not carry any mails, because she had no place for them. Hereafter, un- til the quarantine on Honolulu Is lift- ed, mails will be dispatched almost weekly to points outside of the Island of Oahu. The mail steamer Nippon Maru. which sails today, will take on- ly Oahuan mails. Chronicle. No Positions Lost.

CAUSE OF TARDY ACTION The Bitter and Foolish Attacks of the Little - Caypless - Wilcox-More- no Outfit. WASHINGTON, Feb. 2. The House Committee on Territories Is unusually diligent in its consideration of the Ha- waiian bill. General Hartwell and Mr. W. O. Smith are constantly in attend- ance and are freely called upon for in- formation. During Sunday, the 28th, the information required by the com- mittee kept the typewriters for the Hawaiian representatives at work nearly all night The bill before the House which had been referred to the committee, repealed in a general way many of the present Hawaiian laws, and in the same way enacted other ex- isting Hawaiian laws. It was evidant that in the debate on the floor of the House, members would ask for the meaning of the provisions stricken out, or enacted. It was therefore the wisest policy to amend the bill so that it could be seen at a glance what the provisions meant. This course will prevent con- fusion and delay suspicion. The bill will, therefore, be greatly enlarged, and will make it materially different irom the Senate bilL As an Illustration of the bitter and foolish attack made upon the adminis- tration of the land lawa of Hawaii bv Moreno, Wilcox, Little and Caypless, me ionowing is a brief summary of a part of Little's speech before the com- mittee. After repeating his assertion that there was no chance for Americans to obtain land, unless they had a "pull" or were related to members of the gov ernment, Mr. W. O. Smith rose and interrupted him, asking him to give a single instance of the misconduct of the government In this respect He promptly replied: "Certainlv I can. I applied myself to the government for a piece of land containing a few acres near uocoanut Island, close to Hilo; I wanted a lease of it. It was refused. But another man, named Brown, 1m- - meaiateiy got it without any difficulty. I hadn't any pull; the government was down on me and I wasn't related to any member of it" a member of the committee asked wnat sort or a title Brown got Little replied, a lease. Little was asked if It was a lease under the homestead law. He said, "Oh, no." He was then asked ir leases did not have to be sold at nnh 11c auction, why he did not bid on it? Little replied, "Oh well, Brown didn't get anything in writing but held the iana as a sort of tenant at will." Mr. Smith then said, that if he recalled the case correctly, it was one affecting some land which the government thought should be retained because It was ad jacent to Hilo harbor; that Brown merely occupied It and was allowed to remain on from month to month. Little could not remember any other casfs wnere a "pull" nia obtained land. As the committee is Dressed with work the time occupied by Little, Cayp- less, Wilcox and Moreno, has delayed the consideration of the bill. Rut at the same time these Incidents and In temperate speeches have increased the confidence of the committee in the honesty of the local government, be- cause it has forced Mr. Hltt to make a strong defense of it, with the force and autnorlty of an eye-witne- ss. The business men and residents of Honolulu must realize the fact that bold charges of fraud made against the government and planters, repeated con- stantly before a committee and urged privately upon some members of it, make an Impression and create a tem- porary mistrust In the minds of men in Congress who are indifferent to Ha- waii. These men have no means of as- certaining forthwith the standing In the Islands of the persons who are charging the government and the Judiciary, with fraud. The result Is a most unfortunate delay in reaching conchislons. The Committee on Ter- ritories Is extremely anxious to make a unn.nimous report of the HawaMan b.ll. tut it is difficult to do so when several members of the eommHtee h s'-t- ae to join In the report, because they e!!ev there may bo "something" in the chi'ce? cf corruption.

LATEST N EWSjJN PLEASANT Plague Precautions - Prince Henry Robbed Shipping Laws For Hawaii. SPEARMAN'S CAMP, Wednesday, Feb. 7, 6 p. m. General Buller com- menced the advance for the re4ief of Ladysmith Monday. The naval guns opened at 7 in the morning and a feint attack was mode on the front of our position. Three battalions advanced toward the Brakfonteln with tdx bat- teries. At 11 o'clock the Boers opened with artillery fire and sent several shells among the British infantry, who re- tired one hour later. Meanwhile a vigorous attack was made on the ex- treme right, where the engineers expe- ditiously constructed a position. Sev- eral pieces of cannon, hidden among the tree3 on Zwartskop, bombarded heavily. The British infantry advanc- ed and the Boers were entirely sur- prised. . At 4 o'clock a high hill, a continua- tion of the Brakfonteln, had been ta- ken. The operations were excellently planned. The name of the hill taken is Krantzkloof. The bombardment of the Boer posi-- . tion was resumed this (yesterday) morning. The Boers worked a disap- pearing cannon from the high Doorm Klocf range on the right of the hill ctpmred, but the British sheila ex- ploded its magazine and the gun was put out of action until late In the day. Musketry fire was intermittent un- til the afternoon, when the Boers made a determined effort to retake the hill. Reinforcements rushed up cheer- ing, the Boers were repulsed and the British advanced along the ridge. The Advance Checked. LONDON, Feb. 8. A special dis- patch from Spearman's Camp dated Wednesday, February 7th, says: "Our further advance is at the moment pre- vented, as the Boers enfiladed us from their positions on Splon Kop and Doorm Kloof. Our casualties, al- though estimated at 250, are trifling, considering the great importance of the movement Just concluded." Details from Correspondents. LONDON, Feb. 8. The Standard has the following from Spearman's Camp, dated February 7th: "The force under General Buller Is again advancing to the relief of Lady-smit- h, and, after two days of severe fighting, it may fairly be said to have made a good first step oa the road to the besieged town. "The movement was begun at an early hour on Monday morning by way of Potgieter's Drift. The Eleventh Brigade, forming a part of the Fifth Division under General Warren, made a feint attack upon the kopjes imme- diately on our front The assault was delivered at the outset under cover of the naval guns on Mount Alice and subsequently under that of field bat- teries. "The infantry advanced steadily to- ward the Boer intrenched position at Brakfonteln and kept the enemy busily employed. While this diversion was being made the remainder of the In- fantry told off for the attack, who had bivouacked Sunday night under Mount Alice, moved along at the foot of Zewart's Kop in the direction of our right "A pontoon bridge was thrown across the Tugela by the rngineers un der the fire of the enemy. The first battalion to move across In the fore- noon was the Durham Light Infantry of General Lyttelton's Infantry. Thev advanced against Vaal Krantz, which lie3 on the most direct road to Ladv- - 3mith, and after two hours' splendid work they got within charging dis- tance of the Boers. "The first of the kopjes was carried by them at the point of the bayonet, by the utmost gallantry. Almost sim- ultaneously the battalion rifle brigade cleared the second kopje, and after moving across the long ridge, they biv- ouacked on the spot "The fent attack at Potgieter's hav ing served Its purpose in preventing th concentration of the enemy at the crrcial point. th Eleventh Briead? e l back to the river. In the course of the orpratiin both th? Infantry an the arti'Iery h'.d been subjected to a severe shell fire. "Yesterday (Tuesday) at 4 o'clock in the afternoon the enemy, encouraged doubtless by their success at Spion Kop, endeavored to recapture the po- sition taken by us at Vaal Krantz. They were beaten back, however, with loss. "The work accomplished eo far nas been magnificently done. The shell and Maxim fire poured in by the Boers has been extremely severe, but oar losses are, comparatively speaking small. "The Durham Light Infantry took a few prisoners in the course of their charge. "The enemy, as usual, fought with the utmost stubbornness. The British maneuvering and the accuracy of aim on the part of the British artillery during the fighting on Monday were beyond praise. There is not the slight- est likelihood that the Boers will suc- ceed in dislodging us from the posi- tions we have gained, and the pros- pects of the relief of Ladysmith are decidedly hopeful." The Dally Telegraph's correspond- ent at Spearman's Camp, in a dispatch dated Monday night, says: "Under the personal direction of General Luller the attick on the Boer positions was begun this morning by nearly the whole of our batteries seventy-tw- o guns shelling the ridges where the enemy have their trenches and redoubts on the Brakfonteln and the low crest facing Potgieter's Drift. . "The enemy suffered severely. Sev- eral hills were smoking like volcanoes from the effects of the bombardment, which set on fire their stores and the grass. "While the third pontoon bridge was being constructed under fire near Schief (Sklel) Drift, the Eleventh Bri-gad- e, now under the command of Col. . Wynne, made a demonstration against the Brakfonteln ridge, marching across the meadows, with the support of sev- en batteries of artillery. "At 11 o'clock the enemy opened with a heavy cannonade of shrapnel, common shell and pompln shells, chiefly from Splon Kcp. This was acc- ompanied by a rattling musketry fire. -- Our gunners behaved admirably and werp as cool as If upon parade. "The demonstration having gained effect the real attack upon the Boer left was delivered at 4 o'clock. The Durham Light Infantry carried Vaal Krantz, the key of the lower ridges, while General HUdyard's brigade as- sailed the higher ridges. The General and his troops are bivctiasklng upon- - . the field cf battle." The Boer Account. ; BOER HEAD LAAGER (Lady--smith- ), Feb. 6. Since yesterday the British, with naval and other guns, have bombarded our positions on the Upper Tugela. The troops crossed the river at that point and Kolen Drift, with the object of storming our posi- tions. At the former the burghers beat them back and they recrosed In great confusion. The fighting continues at Kolen Drift with the Standerton and Johan- nesburg commandos. There were no casualties on our side. The cannonade was the fiercest yet experienced. There was a continuous roaring all day long. This morning it recommenced with an increased number of guns. BOER HEAD LAAGER (Lady-smit- h), Tuesday, Feb. 6, 11 a. m. Fur- ther reports of yesterdays fighting at the Upper Tugela river show that the British lost heavily at Pont Drift tmt took an important position on a small kopje on the Kolen Drift side. Fonr . Boers were killed. The British los is unknown. They are still in possession of the kopje and the big guns h- - ire ceased firing. General Forward Movement. LONDON, Feb. 8.- -4 a. m. The British columns are putting themselves in motion in all parts of the South Afri- can war field. A combined attack upon the Boers appears to be In progress. General Buller has gained a footing on the plateau north of the Tugela, after two days' hard fighting. On the far western border Lord Methuen haa be- gun a turning movement against the Boer right, when General MacDonald threatens the Boer flank, thus relieving the pressure on Lord Methuen's front Lord Roberts, who, according to an informant in close touch with the War Office. Is In the middle of the theater of war. ha3 begun to march on Bloemfon-tei- n. The Boers have taken the initiative against General Gatacre, attacking two of his positions at Sterkstroom. It really looks as though the general forward movement so long talked of was in progress. General Buller's third attempt at relieving Ladysmith absorbs attention. Tlrgrams of from 100 and 200 words frf.r.i a dozen correspondents havp been passed by the censor, who has apparently re-dat- ed messages writ- ten Monday or Tuesday to Wednesday at f P. M.

not rascals themselves? And if thereare only rascals there excepting ofcourse, Little and Caypless wny trustanyone there with political power?"As Moreno and Wucox daily appear as"exhibits" in the case, the estimate byCongressmen or the character oi themen who seek to rule Hawaii id notedifying.

The questions regarding the status ofPuerto Rico have some influence on theHawaiian matter. The Piesident ia infavor of giving that island tree tradein sugars. The Senate is disposed toplace a duty on these sugars, amount-ing to 25 per cent of the present tariffrates. Now, if Hawaii is at oncebrought within the customs laws ofCongress, the President may use thatas a precedent for urging free tradewith Puerto Rico. Not that he desiresto embarrass Hawaii in any way, forhe does not, but he feels the awfulresponsibility of caring lor the millionof suffering people in Puerto Rico whoare now American citizers. He is dailyinformed of their wide spread distress,and he believes that only free tradewill relieve them. The Senate Commit-tee on Insular Affairs listens every dayto the details of the miseries of thiswretched million, who are now madewards of the United States, and meansto aid them, but the committee refusesto follow the President in concedingfree trade.

Within the last three days the expan-sion business has developed novel polit-ical aspects. In view of the comingelection the Democrats may try to forcethe Republicans to a very distinct an-nouncement of their interpretation, ofthe Constitution. If the Republicansinsist that the Constitution does of itsown force extend to all American terrltory, th? T emcrats will uree. dnring the coming campaign, that PuertoRico and the Philippines have beenDrought within the Constitution, andtherefore ten millions of the cheapestlaborers are now American citizens andmust be used and respected ftccordinely. The object of this movement is todiscredit the Republican party with thelaDormg voters. A prominent Repubncan ana member of the Houss saidyesterday, that this attitude of thepolitical parties might have some influence In delrying prompt action ontne iriawaiian bill. w. N. A.

MOLOKAI'S MALARIAL F2JVER.

jno Abatement Since Dr. Peterson'sj Investigation Last Montn.f Malarial fever has evidently taken a

determined . hold of . the Ksuakakalside of the island of Molokal, accordingto a letter received from Dr. Schwallleby the Board of Health yesterday. Infact the fever has so alarmed the In-

habitants that they have requested aidof some kind from Honolulu. No physi-cians are at present available here, butmedicines will be forwarded. The plan-tations will also be requested to allowpublic use of their stock of medicines,to be filled later by supplies from theGovernment. Dr. Schwallle's letterreads:

Kaunakakal, Molokal, Feb. 8, 1900.Board of Health, Honolulu.

Sirs: There is no abatement of thefever here. There are about twenty-fiv- e

cases outside and on the plantationat Kamalo, and about forty cases here.Most of the casea are malaria withsome typhoid and dysentery. They arescattered along about fifty miles ofcoast, and it is impossible to give themall the necessary medical attention.The ror.ds are In a very bad conditionsince the heavy rains. If you can giveus a remedy the people here would ap-preciate it You will probably receiveletters from others.

Very respectfully,W. A. SCHWALLIE. M.D.

CAUSE OF TARDY ACTION

The Bitter and Foolish Attacks of theLittle - Caypless - Wilcox-More- no

Outfit.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2. The HouseCommittee on Territories Is unusuallydiligent in its consideration of the Ha-waiian bill. General Hartwell and Mr.W. O. Smith are constantly in attend-ance and are freely called upon for in-formation. During Sunday, the 28th,the information required by the com-mittee kept the typewriters for theHawaiian representatives at worknearly all night The bill before theHouse which had been referred to thecommittee, repealed in a general waymany of the present Hawaiian laws,and in the same way enacted other ex-isting Hawaiian laws. It was evidantthat in the debate on the floor of theHouse, members would ask for themeaning of the provisions stricken out,or enacted. It was therefore the wisestpolicy to amend the bill so that it couldbe seen at a glance what the provisionsmeant. This course will prevent con-fusion and delay suspicion. The billwill, therefore, be greatly enlarged, andwill make it materially different iromthe Senate bilL

As an Illustration of the bitter andfoolish attack made upon the adminis-tration of the land lawa of Hawaii bvMoreno, Wilcox, Little and Caypless,me ionowing is a brief summary of apart of Little's speech before the com-mittee. After repeating his assertionthat there was no chance for Americansto obtain land, unless they had a "pull"or were related to members of the government, Mr. W. O. Smith rose andinterrupted him, asking him to give asingle instance of the misconduct of thegovernment In this respect Hepromptly replied: "Certainlv I can.I applied myself to the government fora piece of land containing a few acresnear uocoanut Island, close to Hilo; Iwanted a lease of it. It was refused.But another man, named Brown, 1m- -meaiateiy got it without any difficulty.I hadn't any pull; the government wasdown on me and I wasn't related toany member of it"a member of the committee askedwnat sort or a title Brown got Littlereplied, a lease. Little was asked if Itwas a lease under the homestead law.He said, "Oh, no." He was then askedir leases did not have to be sold at nnh11c auction, why he did not bid on it?Little replied, "Oh well, Brown didn'tget anything in writing but held theiana as a sort of tenant at will." Mr.Smith then said, that if he recalled thecase correctly, it was one affecting someland which the government thoughtshould be retained because It was adjacent to Hilo harbor; that Brownmerely occupied It and was allowedto remain on from month to month.

Little could not remember any othercasfs wnere a "pull" nia obtainedland.

As the committee is Dressed withwork the time occupied by Little, Cayp-less, Wilcox and Moreno, has delayedthe consideration of the bill. Rut atthe same time these Incidents and Intemperate speeches have increased theconfidence of the committee in thehonesty of the local government, be-cause it has forced Mr. Hltt to make astrong defense of it, with the force andautnorlty of an eye-witne- ss.

The business men and residents ofHonolulu must realize the fact thatbold charges of fraud made against thegovernment and planters, repeated con-stantly before a committee and urgedprivately upon some members of it,make an Impression and create a tem-porary mistrust In the minds of men inCongress who are indifferent to Ha-waii. These men have no means of as-certaining forthwith the standing Inthe Islands of the persons who arecharging the government and theJudiciary, with fraud. The result Is amost unfortunate delay in reachingconchislons.

SPEARMAN'S CAMP, Wednesday,Feb. 7, 6 p. m. General Buller com-menced the advance for the re4ief ofLadysmith Monday. The naval gunsopened at 7 in the morning and a feintattack was mode on the front of ourposition. Three battalions advancedtoward the Brakfonteln with tdx bat-teries.

At 11 o'clock the Boers opened withartillery fire and sent several shellsamong the British infantry, who re-tired one hour later. Meanwhile avigorous attack was made on the ex-treme right, where the engineers expe-ditiously constructed a position. Sev-eral pieces of cannon, hidden amongthe tree3 on Zwartskop, bombardedheavily. The British infantry advanc-ed and the Boers were entirely sur-prised. .

At 4 o'clock a high hill, a continua-tion of the Brakfonteln, had been ta-ken. The operations were excellentlyplanned. The name of the hill takenis Krantzkloof.

The bombardment of the Boer posi-- .tion was resumed this (yesterday)morning. The Boers worked a disap-pearing cannon from the high DoormKlocf range on the right of the hillctpmred, but the British sheila ex-ploded its magazine and the gun wasput out of action until late In the day.

Musketry fire was intermittent un-til the afternoon, when the Boersmade a determined effort to retake thehill. Reinforcements rushed up cheer-ing, the Boers were repulsed and theBritish advanced along the ridge.

The Advance Checked.LONDON, Feb. 8. A special dis-

patch from Spearman's Camp datedWednesday, February 7th, says: "Ourfurther advance is at the moment pre-vented, as the Boers enfiladed us fromtheir positions on Splon Kop andDoorm Kloof. Our casualties, al-though estimated at 250, are trifling,considering the great importance ofthe movement Just concluded."

Details from Correspondents.LONDON, Feb. 8. The Standard has

the following from Spearman's Camp,dated February 7th:

"The force under General Buller Isagain advancing to the relief of Lady-smit- h,

and, after two days of severefighting, it may fairly be said to havemade a good first step oa the road tothe besieged town.

"The movement was begun at anearly hour on Monday morning by wayof Potgieter's Drift. The EleventhBrigade, forming a part of the FifthDivision under General Warren, madea feint attack upon the kopjes imme-diately on our front The assault wasdelivered at the outset under cover ofthe naval guns on Mount Alice andsubsequently under that of field bat-teries.

"The infantry advanced steadily to-ward the Boer intrenched position atBrakfonteln and kept the enemy busilyemployed. While this diversion wasbeing made the remainder of the In-

fantry told off for the attack, who hadbivouacked Sunday night underMount Alice, moved along at the footof Zewart's Kop in the direction ofour right

"Yesterday (Tuesday) at 4 o'clock in

the afternoon the enemy, encourageddoubtless by their success at SpionKop, endeavored to recapture the po-sition taken by us at Vaal Krantz.They were beaten back, however, withloss.

"The work accomplished eo far nasbeen magnificently done. The shelland Maxim fire poured in by the Boershas been extremely severe, but oarlosses are, comparatively speakingsmall.

"The Durham Light Infantry took afew prisoners in the course of theircharge."The enemy, as usual, fought with

the utmost stubbornness. The Britishmaneuvering and the accuracy of aimon the part of the British artilleryduring the fighting on Monday werebeyond praise. There is not the slight-est likelihood that the Boers will suc-ceed in dislodging us from the posi-tions we have gained, and the pros-pects of the relief of Ladysmith aredecidedly hopeful."

The Dally Telegraph's correspond-ent at Spearman's Camp, in a dispatchdated Monday night, says:

"Under the personal direction ofGeneral Luller the attick on the Boerpositions was begun this morning bynearly the whole of our batteriesseventy-tw- o guns shelling the ridgeswhere the enemy have their trenchesand redoubts on the Brakfonteln andthe low crest facing Potgieter's Drift. .

"The enemy suffered severely. Sev-eral hills were smoking like volcanoesfrom the effects of the bombardment,which set on fire their stores and thegrass.

"While the third pontoon bridgewas being constructed under fire nearSchief (Sklel) Drift, the Eleventh Bri-gad- e,

now under the command of Col. .

Wynne, made a demonstration againstthe Brakfonteln ridge, marching acrossthe meadows, with the support of sev-en batteries of artillery.

"At 11 o'clock the enemy openedwith a heavy cannonade of shrapnel,common shell and pompln shells,chiefly from Splon Kcp. This was acc-ompanied by a rattling musketry fire. --

Our gunners behaved admirably andwerp as cool as If upon parade.

"The demonstration having gainedeffect the real attack upon the Boerleft was delivered at 4 o'clock. TheDurham Light Infantry carried VaalKrantz, the key of the lower ridges,while General HUdyard's brigade as-sailed the higher ridges. The Generaland his troops are bivctiasklng upon- - .the field cf battle."

BOER HEAD LAAGER (Lady--smith- ),

Feb. 6. Since yesterday theBritish, with naval and other guns,have bombarded our positions on theUpper Tugela. The troops crossed theriver at that point and Kolen Drift,with the object of storming our posi-tions. At the former the burghers beatthem back and they recrosed In greatconfusion.

The fighting continues at KolenDrift with the Standerton and Johan-nesburg commandos. There were nocasualties on our side. The cannonadewas the fiercest yet experienced. Therewas a continuous roaring all day long.This morning it recommenced with anincreased number of guns.

Mr. Moreno showed me a letter hewrote to you thi3 morning, so you willthere find everything that took placebefore the Committee on Territoriesin it. I was very careful in my speech,which impressed the committee thatwe mean to be fair; in fact, they toldme that my speech so impressed themthat they could do no less than tohe.p the Hawaiians In amending theHitt Bill to satisfy the people of Ha-waii.

They told me that they were toldthat the Hawaiians hate the Americanbitterly, but my appearance and mymiid speech, without spiteful language,dispelled all the calumny against theHawaiians. In fact, the votes of themembers of the committee to strikeout property qualification In the billfor voters for Senators were unani-mous.

Any Hawaiian who, becoming anAmerican citizen by taking the oathto the United States Constitution andpaying a poll tax of one dollar in-

stead of five dollars) and knows howto read and write the English or Ha-waiian languages, shall be entitled tobe a voter for Senator, as well as fora Representative in the Territory ofHawaii. If we had not come, the Hittor CuIIom bill would have passed with-out an alteration.

My greatest aim is to harmonize ev-erybody here t order to gain a bigvictory for the benefit of our people.In fact, we are realizing a victory,while the Dole emissaries are realizinga defeat. The bill as the committeeamended it will be reported In theHouse of Representatives this week,and the bill will pass as the law forthe Territory of Hawaii next month(February).

The Directors PleasedWith Progress.

The Money Spent Planting for First

Year Laird Secured The.New Mill.

Mr. J. B. Castle, president of theNahiku Sugar Co., was asked yesterdayregarding the progress being made atthe new plantation and "made the following statement: . -

"At our directors' meeting held recently we had a partial report of thework done on Nahiku plantation andconsider the progress made as very en- -ouraging. Mr. Hocking, the manager,

has written regarding the work doneand contemplated; and I know of nothing to interfere with the carrying outof the plans.

"Out of the money that has been sofar expended $25,900 has been for landbought, about ?9,600 for buildings.$3,600 for mules and about $2,000 forlaying water pipe through the camp.The main ditch line has been surveyedana staked off for over five miles. Oversixty acres of seed cane have beenplanted and cared for and about 300acres cleared and ready for plowing.We have had to build roads and fencesand all this has been done on the plantation's own property. Not countingplanter's agreements. Manager Hocking expects to plant about 700 acres forthe plantation. The present arrange-ments with planters will give an addi-tional 200 acres of cane. Arraneempntshave been made with the homesteadersto plant for us under a ten-ye- ar contract on the sliding scale scheme, whichuas Deen successfully worked on Hawaii and the other Islands.

"At present we hold in fee sinrnleb7l acres; under lease 66 acres. Theplanters have agreed to plant 800 acresana we have options to purchase 951acres and lease 168 acres. This, witaabout 1000 acres which arrangementsare now being made to purchase, willgive us in the neighborhood of 3600acres.

"The plantation will nlant for thefirst crop 650 to 700 acres and the planters aoout 200 acres. There is plenty ofwater for fluming and irrigation andthe ditching is now being attended to.About one hundred additional laborersare needed and will be sent to the plan-tation In a short time. With regardto the mill, which will be needed prettysoon, we are going to wait and see howthe price of iron and steel is. By wait-ing we may be able to save muchn.oney, as at the present time thingsin the machinery line are extremelynign in price."

ment of what the conditions were; notonly as to the fact that he was not intoxicated, but as to the fact that thecomplaining witness refused to answerproper questions. The Judge knewthe inspectors were giving their timeand shoe leather for the benefit of thecommunity and the prosecuting witness, and it was the duty of everycitizen to do whatever he could . tomake the inspectors' work as easv as P.possible.

Responsible.

High prices on the Coast, the plaguein Honolulu, the burning of China Judgetown and the uncertainty and irregularity of the inter-islan- d steamship service, are said to be responsible for anincrease in the priffe of almost all stapleand fancy groceries, provisions, fruit it.and vegetables. People are noticingthe effect of these things on theirgrocery and provision bills and aretalking about it as well.

An Advertiser reporter interviewed anumber of the leading provision merchants yesterday, as well as many of

smaller stores in town, regardinrise in the prices of various artiof food. Rice and potatoes are the

principal things affected, it being almost impossible to count on Importsfrom the other islands. Steamers runirregularly or not at all, and whenthey do bring 6hipments to Honolulu,they must of necessity discharge inlighters and an extra transportation

of seventy-fiv- e cents per ton orthereabout, adds still more to the sell

price. Rice is selling in town at$6.00 and $6.25 per bag of 100 pounds.

is almost impossible to procure potatoes at all; the Australia did not bringmany from the Coast and just nowthere are no island potatoes in the market. One grocer, yesterday, was asking$3.00 a bag for potatoes, and all thestores have numerous orders therefor

soon as the tubers can be secured.Kerosene is at a premium, being from

$3.00 to $3.50 a case. The Board ofHealth has produced this state of affairs, a3 far as kerosene is concerned

Its necessary and wholesale use ofcoal oil in the burning i Chinatown.The only recent shipment of oil fromSan Francisco was by the bark Nuuanu,which brought down 3000 cases. Thenext shipment is expected shortly bythe bark St. Katharine from New York;she will bring 10,000 cases, which willconsiderably reduce the present priceand relieve the famine.

Canned goods are higher than ordin-arily, not simply on account of the in-

crease in the value of tin, nor becausethe greater value of meats, fruits

and vegetables in the States, but on account of an unusual demand for cannedprovisions by the people of Honolulu;and to a certain extent there is a consequent scarcity. The detention campsdraw heavily on the supply; and it is afact that a great number of people,fearing to eat fresh meat, fruit andvegetables owing to the presence of theplague, use the canned articles in theirstead.

Meat is not as greatly affected by ex-isting conditions as other food articles;ham and bacon are but little abovethe usual price. Coffee is unaffected.Island butter, while not bringing morethan usual, is very scarce. The irregu-larity of island steamers is not aloneresponsible for this; there has been agreat deal of dry weather in the dairydistricts of late and pasturage has beencorrespondingly poor. A dairymanwrites from Kona that water is fetch-ing five cents a gallon up there. A fewof the smaller stores in town are reap-ing big profits at the expense of customers on the plea that the plague hasaffected the price of everything, charging extra In many cases where no extracharge is allowable.

The larger firms, however, as well asthe majority of the smaller concernsare asking no more than the situationwarrants, and there are many thingsthat maintain the same prices as heretofore. A prominent grocer informedthe reporter that as nearly as possible,he was endeavoring to supply his customers at the old rates; that the chiefdifficulty, as far as some articles wereconcerned, is to supply them at allBuyers have given orders far ahead forthose things which are scarce or unobtainable now. Pilot biscuits a littlewhile ago were sold as soon as theywere discharged from the ships; theyare still at a slight premium. Freshvegetables are firm; many people dispense witn their use altogether, fearing bubonic bacilli.

DEO HIS DUTY.

An Inspector Punishes a Celestial.Only Technically Guilty.

Judge Wilcox was given an opportunity cay before yesterday morning todeliver a lecture upon the work beingdone by the Citizens' Sanitarv Committee inspectors. A Chinaman hadsworn out a warrant aeainst one ofthe sub-inspect- for assault and battery, claiming that he had been assaulted by the inspector without cause,on Sunday afternoon last.

The inspector entered a plea that hewas technically guilty, on the adviceof Mr. Thurston, who appeared forhim; but explained that he had beenassaulted by four Chinamen, who didnot belong in hi3 district. He wasknocked down and thrown into a pondof water because he demanded theirpermits or identification cards. TheChinamen thereupon ran away.

Going Into the next house, the inspector found another strange China-man, who also refused to tell where hecame from, or to show a permit, andwho waxed abusive when the inspector insisted on knowing: about it;whereupon the inspector slapped hisface and otherwise used physical argu-ments.

The prosecuting witness and the inspector got into an argument in thecourt, in which the Chinaman exhibit-ed a high degree of excitement andtemper. Judge Wilcox stated that hewanted it fully understood that hewas in full sympathy with the Citi-zens' Sanitary movement, and wouldsupport its inspectors whenever hefound they were doing their duty.

Tie complaining witness had statedthe inspector was intoxicated. Thecourt was personally acquainted with

Honolulu, February 15, 1900Board of Health: Our inspectors re

port that the condition of aftairs ' inthe Kewalo ditch is rapidly becominunbearable, and that temporary reliefis- - needed at once pending any permanent arrangements the Board of Healthmay 'have in view.

The remedies they suggest seem perfectly practicable and in their opinionwould relieve the situation.

The suggestion is that the ditch becleaned and obstructions removed fromits mouth, which they say can be doneby a f w men, employed from the reliefcamp, or elsewhere, at very small expense. .

If tliis it once done, we have madearrangements with Mr. Hustace to flushthe tlitch with artesian water once aday. We believe that this would dovery well as a temporary arrangement.

namely, that of M. Gustave Zede isanything but perfect

Notwithstanding the increase ofspeed which has been secured, M. Zedecannot hope to overtake an enemr, andcan only attack him by surprise.

The boat s range of action is limitedto 138 miles at the most.

No Further Record ofNew Cases. the

forKoalii Not a Plague CaseBoard of.Rules on Freight Matters of

Ship McDonald.

Another clean record was addedyesterday to a generally improved situation in health department circles,and one case at the pest hospital, carried since February 5th as a suspect,was pronounced not a case ot plague.This was Jvoalil, the Hawaiian fromthe kerosene warehouse camp. By

this announcement, nearly two hundred people will be released from that tocamp today. ,

The specimens from the Waialuacases did not reach. Honolulu until yesterday morning. When Dr. Hoffmann byopened the package a small tube carefully corked was found inside but ad-

dressed to Dr. Alvarez. A subsequentInvestigation showed' that a similarmistake had been made in transmitting

specimen to the latter physician, andwas late in the afternoon before a

change of specimens was effected. Asthe specimen had been placed in alco-

hol, no opportunity was left to makecultures, as the germs, If it containedany, were thus destroyed.

Reports from the pest hospital presented an Improvement in all the patients. Both Armstrong Smith and Mr.Hartmann are steadily convalescing.

The Board of Health.Yesterday's meeting of the Board was

attended by Attorney-Gener- al Cooper,acting president; George W. Smith, DrDay, F. M. Hatch and F. J. Lowrey.

Dr. Emenson reported that the American ship John McDonald, forty daysfrom Hongkong, had arrived in ballastconsigned to Irwin & Co., to take sugarfor the Coast. He stated that the shipdid not carry a clean bill of health,as eight cases and seven deaths fromplague had occurred in the week prior .

to her departure from Hongkong.The vessel carries as ballast, broken

rocK, such as is disallowed entry intoUnited States ports under the quarantine regulations. Coming from an in-

fected port with, soil, the Board feltthat it would be a dangerous practice toallow such ballast to come into theharbor. It was suggested that the ballast be dumped into scows and thentowed to sea for disposal, and that thesailors' dunnage should be treated; to atnorough disinfection, after which thevessel would be allowed practique. ' Dr,Emerson explained that the vessetwasclean throughout and no sickness hadoccurred on board. One sailor nadbuboes, not caused, however, by plagueinfection.

Mr. Hatch, moved that the ship JohnMcDonald be allowed practlque, on con-dition that personal effects of the sail-ors be fumigated, the men disinfected.and the rock and soil ballast be notlanded on shore, but dumped into deepsea. Carried.

The Australia's Cargo.Mr. Giffard, representing Irwin &

Co., requested a ruling in the mannerof discharging the Australia-I- s cacgoy rvwhich consisted moetly of plantationsupplies, which was to be transferredfrom the Australia to scows, thenceinto the inter-islan- d steamers.

Yesterday forenoon part of the cargowas treated in this manner, but theworkmen on the scows consisted of aportion of the Australia's crew andlongshoremen from the wahrf; this wastechnically a violation of quarantinerules, and further work was suspended.Mr. Giffard represented that his com-pany desired to assist the Board ofHealth in every way possible and hadcomplied with the regulations to thebest of its ability. The Board statedthere was no objer-tio- against islandsteamers eomin? alongside the scowsand taking freight; but drew the lineat the mixing up of clean crews fromvessels and longshoremen.

It was suggested that tinned goods."rom the city, when disinfected, passedthrough the hands of longshoremen' cfore being put aboard the island-- teamers. and yet were consideredc!'an. The freight from the Australiawas infinitely cleaner from a quaran-tine standpoint, and probably wouldnot suffer much from handling on thewows. The workmen used in the holdof the Australia, while discharging,were Idle crews from clean vessels ly-

ing in the harbor.Moved that the request of W. G.

Irwin & Co.. for discharging freighton scows and into island steamers, begranted on condition that the lone- -shoremen be inspected each morningby a medical officer before being allow-ed on the sows. Carried.

Koalii Not a Suspect.Minister Cooper announced that Dr.

Hoffmann had determined that Koalii,the Hawaiian sent to the peet hospitalfrom the kerosene warehouse camp onFebruary 5th, is not a plague suspectThe people held in quarantine awmiingthis verdict were ordered r;ieased atonce.

Resolutions passed 'Wednesday bythe Citizens' Sanitarv Committee relative to the prohibition of Oriental goodsbeing imported into Hawaii from In-

fected ports, were read, and referred tothe special committee having chargeof such matter.

Gear, Lansing & Co.. requested permission to ship 200 baES of coal fromInter-Islan- d steamer coal yard to Ma- -

unalei plantation bv the .schooner uoiden Gate. Minister Coooer said thecoal should be taken from the shipKenny now lying in the stream, whereit was available. The Board deniedthe request, but authorized the Acting President to treat vJith the company on the lines suggested.
