THE COLONIZATION SCHEME

Although little has been said in the
press regarding the Oahu Colonization
Company's scheme during the past
few months, yet it has never for ore
moment been lost sight of by the origin
ator, Mr. Dillingham;, or those whom
he has rallied to his aid Capitalists in
London have had the matter in hand
for some months, making a careful
investigation of the project through the
assistance Of maps and much detailed
information. 1t is now reported from
trustworthy bankers in London that
there are good prospects of the stock
being readily taken up 1t was deemed
important that the Hawaiian loan Of
1000, 900 should first have been
foated, the easy success of which has
been reported. Now that the remark
able eagerness with which the national
bonds were sought has been seen, it
will not be more surprising to hear that
from FIVE to ten times the amount Of
the capitalized value of the coloniza-
ten scheme has also been applied for
Those who have given this enterprise
only passing thought little realize the
vast possibilities that it affords, not
only to investors but to the whole
country. When it becomes an accom-
plished fact, as there appears every
probability it will, hardly an interest ir
the Kingdom will fail to receive grea
benefit thereby.
The promoter states that, as in the
case of the national loan, reserve o
the colonization stock will be held fo
domestic investors a limited time, bu
the amount will be restricted owing L
the length of time required for com
munication with London, and no sub
scriptions will be specifically solicite,
in this country. Those who want t
invest in this scheme of developing tn
resources Of this island should con
municate with the promoter at once, a
it will soon be too late to secure tn
stock here if English capitalists, as re
ported, are regarding it With confdenc
and favor.

SENTENCE coNFIRMED.
Paymaster General smith Pays Dearly
for His Folly. s#

for His Folly.
B WASHINGTON, D. G, January, 90 The
sentence imposed by the general court
martial in the case Of Pymaster General
j. "A. Smith, United States navy, having
been approved by the secretary Of the navy
and confirmed by the presid dent, was pro-
mulgated today at the navy department.
The charges upon which Paymaster Gem
eral Smith was arraigned and tried, were
two, the first being scandalous conduct,
tending to the destruction Of good morals;
and ~ culpable ineffciency in the per-
formance of duty. The court found
him guilty on both charges, and sentenced
him to be dismissed from the position Of
chief Of the bureau of provisions 3 and
clothing in the department Of the navy, to-
be suspended from rank and duty, as pay
inspector on furlough pay, for two years,
and to retain his present number in his
grade during that period. The offenses Of
which the paymaSter general was convicted
under the first charge according to the
findings of the court consisted in Scandal
izing and disgracing the service by
subordinating the interests of the govern
ment to those of favored contractors, and
by resOrting to illegal and unlawful meth
ods to accomplish that end. The speeifica-
tons, as proved under the charge Of $culpa-
on the part Of Paymaster General Smith
embrace, according to the court, s'the MAX
ing of contracts for excessive quantities Of
supplies at times when not needed, and
failure to enforce legal contracts when sup
plies were needed #

completed q bill for the repeal Of the pre-
emption and timber culture laws, and the
measure will be reported to the senate
Monday. It repeals the two laws men

manent residence and shall irrigate one
half Of it; patent is to issue five years from
date Of filing claimants notice of intention.
1t also repeals the Communication feature of
homestead law, and limits the time within
which the government can attack patent
to five years. The senate committee also
amended Senator Berry's resolution so as
to make it declare that, in the opinion of
congress, leases of both the houses and
hot water privileges at Hot Springs, Ark,
should not be renewed by the secretary
of the interior until the forty-ninth con-
gress shall have legislated with reference
thereto. The resolution will be favorably
reported to the senate. :

An Expired Pool.

CHICAGO, Feb. IA meeting of repre-
sentatives of the railroads in the Chicago,
St. Louis and Missouri river passenger as
sociation, which expired by limitation yes
terday, was held here today. There was
but little discussion, and nothing was d ,ne
except to adjourn sine die, contrary, some
what, to general expectation. The st. Paul
adhered to it's position that northwestern
business be included in the association, and
the Rock Island remained firm in opposi-
ton. Both the Rock Island and The st.
Paul managers assert that, notwithstanding
the failure Of extension, pool rates will be
firmly maintained.

Marine Collision.

JERSEY CITY, N. j., Jan. sO.-The Red
Star line steamer Nordland was run into
this afternoon by the steamer Servia Of the
Cunard line. The Nordland had just
backed out from her pier and was lying
helpless in the stream, when the Seryia
came down the river and struck her on the
starboard side of the stern, cutting through
her three decks, smashing her turtle back
and making large triangular cash. A
dense mist hung over the river at the time
Of the accident The extent of damage to
the Seryia is not known. She proceeded
down stream, but is reported laid to at
quarantine. The Nordland was assisted to
her dock in this city by a fleet Of tugs, and
it will take several days to repair her dam
ages. No one hurt. #-a33
On board the Servia were 1853 first class
passengers. Men and women jostled each
other in frantic efforts to get at life pre-
servers, and the officers had their hands
full to prevent some Of the more panic
stricken passengers from jumping over
board.

Chicago VS.. st. Paul.

WASHINGTON, January 3O.-An attempt
is being made by the Chicago chamber of
commerce and other business interests of
that city to induce the board of supervising
inspectors Of steam vessels, in session here,
to change the formation of inspecting dis
tricts. The design is to have new fifth
district formed, with headquarters at Chi
cago, instead of st. Paul, as at present, and
to transfer the St. Paul position, at present
the fifth district, to the fourth district, with
headquarters at ST. Louis. Minnesota rep

influence to defeat the scheme. Supervis-
ing Inspector Rooney, it is reported, will
