me ,.ro,o.es Hawaiian Loan.

Under existing conditions DO ~ cues
ton Il the Hawaiian Government can
contract a loan. Some years ago the
United States entered into commercial
treaty with the Hawaiian Government
which relieved the principal product OF
the Islands from the duty imposed by
this Government upon the products OF
other countries Of ike character. The
treaty was in name reciprocal, but only
partially so in fact The Islands could
not buy Of the United States in proper
ton TO their sales TO the United States
But this difference in trade balances was
carried over 10 the political account
By giving the Islands this advantage it
was urged We were establishing such
close relations with them that no Euro
pean nation could establish over them q
protectOrate or any relation of a similar
kind. The revenues OF the Hawaiian
Government were largely increased
through the operations Of Americans in
the Islands, and in consequence the ba-
sis for a loan was in American hands.
An abrogation OF the treaty would so re-
+ duce these revenues that no loan could
/ be effected on purely business princi-
. pies The proposition to borrow two
I millions of English capitalists is Il round
/ about way of selling the sovereignty of
/ the Islands to England The English
/ Government Will not. of course, appear
! in the transaction, but no Englishman
+
siderable amount of money without
7 some assurance that the English Govern
ment will aid in an enforcement OF the
/ terms of the loan. Egypt Is an example
/ Of what England can do as debt col
/ lector. England found her excuse for
taking possession Of Egypt in the debt
due bv the Egyptian Government to
English subjects. So far the cases Of
Egypt and that proposed for the Islands
are parallel It happens, however, that
the United States is near ueighbor to
| the Islands They occupy to the Pacific
/ Coast Il somewhat similar position to
/ that occupied by Cuba on the Atlantic
side A policy which declares that Cuba
/ shall not pass into the hands OF a first
class European power without incurring
the protest OF the United States would
apply with equal force to the Hawaiian
Islands England therefore Will be
likely to experience some difficulty in
collecting the Hawaiian bond OF her
money-lenders. Conservative business
men are generally averse to buying into
lawsuit and the same rule will restrain
conservative statesmen from buying into
wars. F. Call.

Cane Suear in LAW.

How badly sugar growers are faring
IN Java may be judged Of from the cir
cumstance that estates formerly valued
at high amounts now change hands at
riiiculously low figures. For instance,
one plantation upon which, seven years
ago. the valuation fixed came to 500 900
guiIders, brought only 100 at public
auction. To show how the sugar market
all over the world is becoming djsorgan-
lied, it may be mentioned that, lately, a
firm at Batavia imported some 10000
piculs of white American beet sugar in
barrels, and sold the same at a rate adj
hitting of fair margin OF profit. 1t in
tends to import more. This sugar most
likely was produced in Europe, and has,
by way Of America. found its way to
Java to compete against the homegrown
cane sugar Straits Times

A few minutes before noon Yesterday
there was a lively runaway and SMASH
up at the corner Of Beretania and Nuu-
anu streets. There were two expresses
on the stand in that vicinity, one of
them in the rear belonging to a man
named Brooks. His horse took fright at
something and began to make things
lively. This started the one in 'front.'
and it turned on to Nuuanu street, but
had not gone far when it came into coll
lision with another express standing on
the roadside. In the meantime Brooks
horse tried to pass between telephone
post and a fence, the consequence being
that the carriage became a total wreck.
1t presented a sorry sight. The horse
freed itself from the shafts, but was
caught without further damage being
done The damage done to all three
carriages viii amount to several hun
dred dollars

CONGRESSMAN WISE.
FACTS OF HIS RECENT QUARREL
WITH LAMB,

RICHMOND, Va, November l6.-Congressman
George d. Wise, of this Uhird) district, publishes
card in relation to the contemplated hostile meet
ing with ex-Mayor Lamb, of Norfolk. Wise first
states what he regards as his provocauon is as tol
lows: The urgency of friends, whose Judgment
respect, and my own taste have been adverse TO
any notice of the statement in regard to myself at
trihuted to VIM. Lamb, of Norfolk, In various
new papers recently published, but reiterated ru-
mors of contemptible duel between him and my
self accompanied by an assertion OF the gross IN
suit offered by him to me, have been 80 widely CIR
culated as to render iC necessary for me, who az
public servant, bear relations and responsibilities
to society," to publish this card. 1t is not true, as
stated in many newspapers, that have ever had a
quarrel with Vim, Lamb. 1t is true, as / have dis
covered, not by application TO himself with whom
can have no communication, but to friends In
Norfolk, whittier went for the purpose, that In h
public speech delivered there during the recent
canvass he stated that he had heen told that was
guilty of immoralites, which will not undertake
to repeat This emanated from it-let II be added
without previous proyocation from me, outside of
my congressional district, where my claims fol-
pirate subject for discussion.
Having stated his case, Wise, after denouncing
the charge as utterly false, proceeds to load Lamr
with all the epithets the case will bear lie asserts
that he can have no quarrel with Lamb, because
his adversary does not come within tue pale OF thos
whom such as he can meet ON "the Held o
honor"
| In conclusion he says Lambs own townsmen re
port that he procured his own arrest to escape th
duel which he preteuds to accept.
