drummers beat their heads in to gain

OUR SUPPLEMENT.

We publish a news supplement
with to-day's issue, but there is moth
ing very important in it. There does
not seem to be a likelihood of war in
Europe, as the Great Powers are
averse to it. For this reason it is
almost certain that way out of the
Roumelian difficulty will be found
without an appeal to arms. The In-
dian Government has a difficulty on
hand in Burmah, and an expedition of
10000 men is being sent to Rangoon to
operate against the Burmese. The
latter are said to be making extern
sfve preparations to defend their ter
ritory, but they are unable to cope
with the British, although they may
succeed in checking the advance of
the invading force for a time. There
is nothing of striking interest in the
American news. In the Eastern
States there has been a revival of
trade. but business is very dull on the
Pacific Coast. An advertisement Of
the famous furniture house of F. S.
Chadbourne e. Co., Market street,
San Francisco, occupies the back OF
the supplement-.

CITY SANITATION.

An important notice by the Minis
ter of the Interior appears in our SPY
Authority" column, in regard te1>cfry
sanitation. 1t calls-ffSSr tenders for
twelve months from December 1st for
Cleaning and repairing the streets,
sidewalks, cutters and culverts, and
contemplates very thorough and eff
Gent work. The city has been di-
vided into six districts, the bounda-
ries of which are given in the notice
inviting tenders, but this districting
is not final should any good reason
be shown for amending it. What is
sought most of all is to facilitate
street cleaning and repairs, and any
suggestion looking to an improve
ment by a change of boundaries
sxould doubtless be favorably received
by the Minister.
The Government is now making a
general clean up, and will hand over
the streets to the contractors in pretty
fair condition. AS has been already
stated by the ADVERTISER, there are
$50 prisoners employed at this work,
together with fourteen carts, His
Excellency Mr.. Gulick having au.
thorized the hiring of seven double
teams in addition to five dump carts
and two carts belonging to the Board
of Health. These are kept busy re-
moving rubbish of all kinds gathered
together by the prisoners who, we
may say, are doing far better work
than is usual with prison laborers.
About nine months ago similar ex-
pertinent was made with twenty-six
prisoners, but after a weeks trial on
the streets they were sent back to the
reef, and six Cinnamon were hired
instead, who accomplished more than
the twenty-six prisoners. AS the de-
partrent has not much money from
the appropriation to spend in this
work, it is necessary to economic,
aud therefore it is satisfactory to
know that the prisoners are doing
fairly well. When the streets and
roads are taken up under the con-
tracts, they will be in passable con-
dition, but very much remains to be
done to them. The specification pro-
vides for this, however, and doubtless
the conditions will be strictly en-
forced

Fatal ARRAY at the Leper settlement

Fatal ARRAY at the Leper Settlement.
According to report from Mr.. Meyers,
Superintendent of the Leper Settlement
on Molokai, fatal affray took place at
Kalaupapa landing on Thursday after
noon, October 29th, on the occasion OF
placing on board the steamer J. /. Dow
sett some children, the offspring of leper
parents, sent to Honolulu to be placed in
the Kapiolani Home. The Assistant
Superintendent, Mr.. Ambrose Hutchi-
son, and three assistants acting as police
men were engaged in putting the children
on board, when an alteration took place
between the policemen and a leper
named MomOna, said to be relative OF
two of the children. He made a sudden
rush, knife in hand, upon the policemen
and stabbed all three. Two were dan
gerously wounded in the abdomen. One
has since died, and the second one is
not expected to live. The third one who
is stabbed is not dangerously wounded.
His Excellency Mr.. Gibson, as President
of the Board of Health, accompanied by
Mr.. F. H. Hayselden, Secretary of the
Board, proceeded on board the tug Eleu
to the Leper Settlement at o'clock this
morning, intending to make thorough
investigation of the affair Mr.. Meyers,
who is District Judge at the Leper Set
Element, will be instructed to examine
the parties engaged in the violence and
commit them to the Lahaina jail for
trial at the next term of Court to be held
there in December. A representative OF
the ADVERTISER accompanies the party,
and will furnish complete report of the
proceedings in to-morrow's issue.

Bsshcl Union Canreh Services.

The Rev. Z. c. Oggel preached yes
terday morning in the Bethel Union pull
pit on the article in the Apostles Greed,
"Who suffered under Portius PLATE and
was cruciied.' The pastor said: The
reason Why in the Gospel narratives the
humiliation Of Christ is 50 conspicuous is
because the Evangeiists deemed the suf-
ferings and death Of Christ Of transcend
ent importance. These sufIerings are
directly related to our salvation. Hence
also int he Ep;stles the prominence OF the
cross. Prophecy required, ii Jesus were
the true Messiah, that he must be taken
''from prison and from judgment" Re
peatedly Plate declared him innocent.
The sermon was followed by the cele-
bration of the Lords Supper.

THE SUGAR MARKET.
A Drop IA Manila RaWs-An Unsettled
Market.

Since our last adVices from san Fran
cisco, there has been a drop of four
fifth of a cent In Manila raws. From
New York there are no quotations owing
to the unsettled condition of the market.
In beet sugars there has been a decline
of ninepence. In San Francisco the
American Refinery advanced prices on
all syrups 1919 cents, and the California
Refinery has made an advance of 10
cents. From our New York exchanges
we give the following:
NEW YORK MARKET.
The demand for sugar has been mod
crate, the transactions reported since our
last issue aggregating 1878 hhds. and
q, $40 bags, and the market has ruled
quiet, but steady tone has prevailed,
the sales having been all on the basis Of
our previous quotations. There has been
no essential change in the situation, the
slow absorption of refined product and
consequent reduction in the output hav-
ing curtaiIed the requirements of con-
sumers to some extent, but supplies have
been held with confidence, and sellers
have shown no disposition to accept
lower bids. The relative difference in
value between raw and refined has like
wise deferred refners from buying ex-
cept to supply their actual wants.
PRODUCING COUNTRIES.
SAN FRANCISCO, October 8th.-Re-
ceipts or sugar in September were 1866
tons from Sandwich Islands and So from
Central America-total, 3,4Ol tons in
September Total since January LIST,
1858 tons, against 90, l65 for same time
last year.
BRITISH WEST INDIES, October ID
Weather is exceedingly dry again, which,
together with a blight which has APP
peared on the cane, is injuring the crop
prospects very seriously.
Louisiana Crop.-The first receipts of
new crop sugar reached New Orleans
October 8th, test 90. 40, and was sold at
81 cents. Estimates are 200, 1000 hhds.,
if no early frost sets in, followed by warm
weather, against 10, 43O hhds. last year.
Beet Crop.-On the 18th of September
the French official returns of new crop
was published with all columns blank,
whilst at that date last year fourteen
fabriques were already working. The
crop is similarly late in the other coun-
tries. NJ LIGHT, in his October estimate,
retains the same figure as in his Sep
TENDER estimate, say 2,070, 900 tons total
crop, and notes some unfavorable cir
! cumstances which may cause modifica-
tons later.
Philippine Islands.-Cable advices to
October 18th show 1885, 800 tons had
sailed for the United States since jan
uary LIST, against 2,597 for the United
States for the same time last year;
| 50, 1876 tons are now afloat for the United
States, against SO, 1913 tons at same time
last year.
HAVANA, October 10th.-The week
under review has transpired in the
midst of the deepest quietness, sellers
still pretending prices that the the few buy
ers remaininggfn the market are by no
means willing to pay The continuance
OF the rainy weather in most of the sugar
producing districts has considerably inn
proved the condition of the cane fields,
imparting great hopes for the coming
crop.
