with Guatemala. Cause, the per-
sonal ambition of military chiefs.
Mexico Is expected TO act as
check upon Guatemala. This is
grim comment certainly upon tie
Fan American Congress, and the
treaty which these countries signed |
TO submit all international disputes
to arbitration. The ink was hardly |
dry on the treaty when Brazil, Teru
and Argentina signed an agreement
to coerce Chile, and now The North
ctn Republics are flying at each 9TH

SHIPPING POINTS.
The Senate has passed the Farqu
har Tonnage Bounty Bill and the
Ocean Postal Subsidy bill. The
House will also pass these measures
when it comes 10 them. The effect
will be to stimulate shipbuilding and
give American merchants the control
ofther own foreign commerce. These
bills have been fought by powerful
British shipping syndicate, who
managed 10 influence the President
of the American Shipping and In-
dustrial League, so that he deelar-
ed for free ships" that is, to make
. market for old British bottoms and
place British shipbuilders and mer-
chants in funds to build and sail q
vastly superior class Of vessels.
Fortunately this detection has not
been fatal to the policy OF the bills.
| War has been declared between
the Pacific Mail and Canadian Pa
citic Companies. The Canadian Pa
cific is sending its steamships to
San Francisco because it is not
bought off by large annual sub
sidy. The Pacific Mail has sent an
agent to Vancouver to open an Office
there, and the Pacific Mail Compa-
ny's steamers will call at that port
outward and inward. The Northern
Pacific is also establishing a line of
steamers to China from Tacoma, SO
there is every reason to anticipate
low freight and passenger rates on
the China route.
, GESEhAL ITEMS.
The fruit failure East has been a
fortunate thing for fruit farmers on
this coast. Green and canned fruits
are quoted ten TO twenty per cent.
higher than ever before, and are
, steadily advancing. This should
react favorably for Island fruit. 1t
is misfortune that so little atten-
ton has been given to fruit culture
on the Hawaiian group. Bananas
, are no doubt profitable crop, but
, there is no reason why other kinds
. of fruit are not grown for export.
