FIJI NEWS.

The latest advices from the FIJI group
are to May 10th
More difficulties with the natives are
reported in the Nadroga District. a Fiiian
Chief, Jopi, who was sentenced to eighteen
months imprisonment for attempted mur-
der, has been pardoned, and severe COM
ments on this Executive action are made.
The Levuka Mechanics Library has re-
ceived 500 more books.
The French vessel Aurora, and the
schooner Venus are charged with piracy
and the kidnapping of natives. At a trial
at Levuka there were thirteen witnesses to
the latter charge, including natives of
Pentecost, Ambrym, Malicolo, Aoba, Api
and Santo The evidence was one long
narrative of seizure by force OF arms,
firing on the natives, violent detention Of
visitors, running down and swamping of
canoes, and otherwise obtaining men by
fraud and treaehery.
1t is said that the career of the Aurora
has been that of the systematic SLAYER and
pirate that on a former voyage Madezo,
the Captain, murdered Malisolo native
by shooting him through the head while
trying to escape by swimming from the
vessel, on board which he had been kid
naped.
Frederick Straube of Levuka recently
resumed planting pursuits on his land at
Macuata In April Straube and his son left
home in the small cutter Stranger, with
two Fijians, to go to Cikobia to buy copra
dried cocoanut). The cutter, when next
seen, was stranded on the reef OF the
Macuata coast and abandoned. The natives
saw that thew went to Cikobia and DUR
chased copra. On the return voyage some
kerosene was spilled, setting the vessel on
fire. The white man and his boy got into
the dingy and pulled away. They put the
fire out, ran the vessel ON the reef, aban-
doned her and swan ashore. The expla-
nation is not regarded as satisfactory.

GAMcEE's MoToR. Prof. Gamgee's ze-
ro motor" has been exciting considerable
attention at Washington, and scientific
men are inclined to get high estimate on
it's value One of the examiners in the
Patent Office tells us he regards it as the
most important patent since the telephone.
Ii it succeeds at all, however, it will be of
far greater consequence than that of any
invention of recent times. Briefly stated
it is designed to utilize the expansive force
OF ammonia gas as motive power. In
Chief Engineer Isherwood's report on the
subject to Secretary Hunt. document
which has called particular attention to
the invention, he declares the plan as de-
vised by Prof. Gamgee as far from chi-
merical." 1t is based on well-demonstrated
thermo-dynamical principles. The whole
is definite and precise, both in theory and
mechanical detail. nor can it be shown, q
priori, that there is not fair prospect for
success. The motive power, practically,
being water against COAL it is needless to
say the new engine, if found practicable
on experiment, must work a revolution IN
mechanics, superseding the steam engine,
as that has taken the place of less econom.
ical mechanical powers. Prof. Gamgee IS
sanguine of complete success, and from his
standpoint of prophetic vision, steamship
and railroad companies and manufacturers
are menaced with rival more portentons
than hangs over the gas monopolies for
..hhe new force is the foe to all monopoly.

ing, Of Oakland, to be United States
assistant treasurer at San Francisco,
vice VIM. Sherman, who had held the
Office eight years, and whose last COM

office of surveyor of the port, which
was reserved, however, by President

strongly recommended by large num-

New York, March 25.-The SUMS
Washington correspondent says: Ger
tain facts, notorious here in Washing

In all parts OF the country. One of the
most persistent and active advocates of
Stanley Matthews is Judge Field, of
California. Field has made it his busi-
ness to go among the democratic sena-
tors and urge the confirmation of Mat
thews, offering his own pledges and
assurances that Matthews swoald be
conservative on the bench, and he
would be in full sympathy with his
(Field's) views on the southern ques-
tion and questions Of the government
generally. This interference has be-
come indecent. Field, himself, is the
most pronounced partisan of corpora
tions in the court, and has gone 80 far
in that direction as to provoke CON-
ment. and more than comment, from
public men who are worthy of the
highest consideration. 1t has been
well understood, and indeed Field
himself has declared that if he had
been nominated for president he would
have had the party support of the great
Pacific railroads and all their combina.

The AequiRaI OF K.lloeh.

San Francisco, March 25. - The
Chronicle treats the verdict in the Kal.
loeb case very briefly this morning, to
the effect that the jury preferred the
testimony of perjured and eharacterless
witnesses to that of reputable citizens,
and that the verdict is a blot on the fair
fame of California.
The Call considers that the verdict
was rendered on general principles, the
jury permitting lthe occurrences previ-
ons to the shooting of De Young to
influence its decision, and that the
methods and character of journalism
which have caused so much scandal
in the city were condemned when Kali
loch was acquitted.
The Alta, while reviewing the his
tory Of the case, fsrbears at present to
comment on the verdict, but deprecates
the street scenes following the acquit-
tai, and hopes that the whole affair will
be delegated to death.
The Eraminer is silent on the SUBJ
iect.
The Bulletsn's article tacitly assumes
that the verdict was not in accordance
with the evidence. and that the ameli-
Grating circumstances of the case
should have been made the ground for
executive clemency, rather than ac-
quittal.
The Post considers the verdict con-
trary to the preponderance of the trust
worthy evidence, denies that the ques-
tion of personal journalism figured in
the case, denounces the demonstration
following the acquittal, and holds that
the result is an assault upon the found
ations of social order.

Burial of the victims OF the Nice
Theater Fire
Trial OF the Murderers of the CzaF
Fixed for the 3Oth inst.
ParneiI Favors Establishing n Land
League In Scotland.


Nice, March 25.-The director of the
theater has informed the magistrate
that there was strong smell of gas in
the theater on Wednesday. He COM
municated with the authorities and
wished to postpone the performance
until an examination of the gas appar-
atus was made, but resolved orders to
give the opera as advertised. The
subscription for the friends of the suf-
ferers has reached 100000 francs.
The funeral of the victims took place
to-day, and was attended by large
crowds. No list of the victims has yet
been published, the bodies being in
most cases calcined and disfgured
beyond recognition. During the fire
several people, frantic with terror,
threw themselves from the roof of the
theater and were dashed to pieces.
The calamity was the result of un-
pardonable negligence. The gas pipes
behind the scenes had not been repaired
or renewed for the last eleven years,
and an escape of gas which occurred
four monthsago was temporarily stopped
with cement. On the day before the
fire, another escape was discovered dur
ing rehearsal. Two inexperienced
plumbers apprentices were left to
attend to it without superintendency.
1t is supposed that they did their work
imperfectly, consequently the escaped
gas accumulated behind the drops, and
as soon as the burners were lighted in
the wings the explosion occurred.

New York, March 25.-The CONNER

ments respecting the increase Of the St.

trade are Of character to arrest atten-
tion in commercial and transportation
circles. In connection with this matter
we observe an important movement on
the part Of wheat exporters on the
Pacific coast. Negotiations are said to
be pending between st. Louis and New
Orleans transportation companies and
parties in San Francisco, for the con-
veyance of 20, 900 car loads Of California
wheat from the former city in barges to
New Orleans, for European shipment.
If rail and water shipments of this
magnitude can be made at pr9St, one
thing is certain, and that is, there will
be a great deal of Idle tonnage in the
Pacific ports the coming season.
