L. Wilcox. who figured as Leader of tho
recent Instruction, scored IL sweeping
victory ut the election GU Feb. 5, electing
nine-tenths of the representatives i'll

by stirring up tho strong feeling of native
Hawaiians against foreigners. When the
natives vote solid. as they did this time,
there is no chance for foreigners. The
meeting of tho Legislature will probably be
the signal for an attack on the ministry.
Wilcox was tried last October for
high treason, but was. acquitted.

A BriBsh Columbia Decision ON tho Bsriur
Sen Matter.

ScW Nu8tt0Ts
Justice Drake, Of the British Columbia
supreme court, has rendered q decision
which declares that the government OF the
United States has no jurisdiction over
liering sea outside of the marine league
limit. The question came before the court
in a civil suit brought by Henry Baxter, of
Seattle, WASH, against Solomon Jacobs,
Of Victoria, for violation OF q sealing con-
tract. Jacobs is the owner Of the schoon-
ers Mollie Adams and Webster. In Janu.
airy. 1889, Jacobs contracted to sell to
Baxter, in Seattle, at a stipulated price,
all the scalskins tuken by his two vessels
during that year. The schooner Webster
was lost in a storm, hut in April. 1889, the
Mollie Adams delivered her seasons catch
to Baxter. A verbal agreement was then
entered into by Jacobs and Baxter to
the effect that the Mollie Adams was
to return aud take seals in BelinR
sea and deliver the skins to Baxter at tie
price stipulated in the contract. The
Adams went to Boring sea aud returned
last November, hut instead of delivering
the skins to Baxter Jacobs sold them in
Victoria. Baxter then brought suit against
Jacobs for damages by breach of contract.
The defense held that the contract was
not valid, as sealing in Boring sea- was in
violation of the United States statutes,
and called Mr.. johnson, of Port Town
send, az a legal expert to establish in court
the American law relating thereto. lie
read sections of the statutes governing
such cases, the amendments enacted by
congress i'll 1889 andthe presidents procla-
nation. The court, however, decided that
the contract was valid and refused to
recognize the jurisdiction of the United
States i'll Boring sea outside of one maine
league from shore of American territory.
1t mas held that the law existing where the
contract Was made had no bearing in court.
Baxter was awarded 81. 1871 damages. Both
defendant and plaintiff are American citi-
zens and the schooner is an American yes.

a Brooklyn car the other evening with
a basket containing wine in his hand,
evidently sent to make Il delivery. He
seemed to have sampled the liqpor

reporter noticed he was in excellent
humor. He managed to get II seat,
and, when the conductor came around
to collect his fare, lie never bothered
about pockets or pocket-books. but
simply placed his hand to IL of his
capacious ears, and drew forth the
shining nickel. To say that the con
ductor and passengers We're surprised
puts it mildly. The conductor, on re-
covering himself, remarked: why do
you carry your money there, Captain? ?"
"'Cause it's handy, sir" replied the
son of Ham, and the passengers all
laughed at the e wrinkle in money
pouches. 1t was observed that he also
