What They Think of Baseball as
Played Ia Honolulu.

| Played In Honolulu.
Speaking of the game in Homo
lulu and the players there, one
of the tourists said to an Examiner
reporter on his arrival from Homo
lulu. Baseball has secured q firm
hold on the Hawaiians. 1t is
strange, too, that sport requiring
so much physical oxertion should
find favor in land whore summer
is perpetual, and where the inhabi-
tants are noted for their Indifference
to all kinds of athletics. But they
have the baseball fever in its worst
stage, and have a league made up
of four clubs, which play regular
schedule of games for the cham
pionship of the Kingdom, just the
same rs the California League Club
plays for the championship of this
State. Can they play? Yes, a little
bit; but they have lots to learn.
They knew but very few of the
tricks or fine points of the game,
and were really dazed at some of
the old plays we worked on them.
Before we played there, a baseball
game, l should imagine, must have
been conducted something like
funeral. They didn't know that
coaching was part of the game
and you ought to have seen those
natives when " White Wings I"
Cahill, from the third-base line,a and
Tom Power, from the first base
line, opened up when we first got
runner at the initial.
"But they were willing and eager
to learn, though 1t Is just about as
easy for one to coach base runner
in the Hawaiian language as it is
to speak Welsh by telephone.
Then they didn't know very much
about base running. The way our
fellows would make their way
around the paths was revelation
TO them. Down there they run
bases with about as much dash
and brilIianey as cricketers do be-
tween wiekets. They never take
chance, though they are all fast
runners. Their fielding is good
and their throwing, as a rule, very
accurate. They have some good
batters, too. Their grounds are
far ahead of those seen in great
many cities in this country. They
have nice grand stand, with
seating capacity of nearly 1900.
The crowd were always fair tow
ard US and quite as appreciative as
many 1 have played before here.
Taking everything into consid-
Grafton l am more than glad that l
made the trip. We had most de-
Iightful time, even if we didn't
make any money, and if 1 can
make the same trip again next
season | shall do it"

ELECTRIC UNDERGROUND
RAILWAY.

The successful opening of the
City and South London Railway
in November last is we'll worthy oil
attention as another distinct step
towards the solution of a problem
never yet satisfactorily settled, viz,
the transport of great numbers OF
passengers from point to point in a
great city at the least possible ex-
peuse with the least possible inter-
ference with ordinary street traffic.
This railway has several radical
differences from other underground
lines, Two distinct iron cylinders
or tunnels carry the roadways,
lying generally fifty or sixty feet
beneath the surface, and following
for the most part the great high
way which under various names
from the neighborhood of London
bridge on the Middlesex side to the
suburbs on the Surrey side, the
present termini being three and q
quarter miles long, though, of
course, further extensions are con-
templated. The tunnels are ven-
tilated at intervals by shafts, and
the stations are reached by hydrau-
lie lifts.
On descending at the London
Bridge terminus the first stop is
some fifty feet below the bed of the
Thames. The engines are worked
by electricity. and can make s
speed of twenty-five miles an hour,
though on account of the frequent
stoppages the natural speed of the
trains will be somewhat less. 1t
was originally intended to adopt
the cable system, and the company
was st first incorporated as merely
s London and Southwark subway,
but the directors decided that cleo
trlcity would be far more effeetual
agent, and after much consultation
and experiment accepted type of
loeomotion designed by DIR. Ed.
Parkinson, and consider it to be
largely in advance of anything of
the kind hitherto constructed.
They have adopted from the high
level railways in New York the
plan of uniform fare, irrespective
of distance, and have also only one
class of carriage, so that payments
and tickets are worked almost
automatically.

fifty feet below the surface,is very
wonderful performance, which, con-
siiering the difficulties of the task,
has been carried out with astonish-
ing rapidity;;" and the work was
begun barely three years ago, and
has been done within the amount

e247 900 per mile, far less than the
cast of the original Underground
. These advantages" says the
Standard, are due not only to the
skill of the builder and the expert
enee of the engineer, but to the fact
that instead Of cutting across
streets, under houses and athwart
aI manner of buried property. the
owners Of which had TO be compen-
sated, " this line runs fifty feet be-

wAsurSGroS, D. C., March 14-Sir Julian Pauncefote, the Sri tish Minister, was at the State Department today in con sultation with Secre ary Blaine. It is be- lieved that the conference related to pre- liminary arrangements for a m u tual under standing as to tn questions to be submit ted for arbitration ia the Behrin2 Sea questions. On the return of Attorney General Miller to Washington to morrow from his trip to the Chlckam auga battle field, he will probably be onsuited con oerning future policy in the Sayward case, which the British Government brought be- fore the Supreme Court of the Ui tied States, in order to secure decls on of that body on the act prohibiting tho killing of fur seal in BehrIng Sea. Inc answer ol the United States District Court of Alaska is not due until the sec n Mo nday ia April. and 1t Is probable th:t an ndeav- or will be made in the meantime t, effect some sert of compromise so that arbi- trators, and net the Supreme Court may render the first decision.

SANTIAGO February l4 A bloody battle has been fought at Pisaquay. The rebels were defeated, having forty killed and thirty four wounded. Their commander, Col. Salvador vetgader, was seriously wounded. but was carried away by the soldiers. The Govern m mt continues to exile all persons who are in aey way in cliuCd toward the rebels. Both natives and foreigners arc suffering. Several Ger man and English merchants have been been given thirty six hours to leave the country forever.
 A perfect surprise, to say the least has been he decree of tho government expel- ling from the country the represes tative of a foreign nation--the Consul of Austria at Valparaiso. The Consul, 1t seems, was very much incli cd toward the rebels and in an unguarded moment stated his feelings and opinion of Balmaceda to q friend.
 The Government prisons ara filled to overfewing with prisoners-not the scum of society, but with revolutionists, who arc considered worthy of imprisonment by Balmaceda, who is styled by the revo- ut on sts "the mod ern despot" Coafisca- tion oa \ grand scale is being resorte1 to by the Goveru ment.

Itaiy's Grievances Vanishing.

NEW ORLEANS, La, March 1.-The in-
 ternat onal shape that the mob affair of
 Saturday has taken was surprise to a l,
 and has eau sed some anxiety hers. New Orleans has had several big damage Is
 to pay on account of similar mob out
 breaks. ln lS53 after the | 1oting of Crittonden and other American til busters
 who went with Lopez to Cuba, the popu-
 lace arc C. attacked the Spanish residents
 of the city aud drove the Spanish Consul from his residence Tho mob was de-
 uounced by President Fillmore. and heavy
 damages paid. Again, in 1873, New Or
 leans had to pay large sum for the losses
 to proper,y inflicted by the mob. The
 Picayune 10 day calls the attention of
 property holders 10 the fact that the fami. lies of any nf the eleven men killed have
 agooi suit for damages against the city for it's failure to protect them. Relative to the internat oual feature Of the affair,
 an attempt will be made to show that al l
 the men lyncaed by the mob repudiated their allegiance to tho kng of Italy and
 wers American citizens. Daring Decem | Der complaint was made by the Itaian Consul taat the Italian prisoners wer9 beiUg badly treated and abused in tho par. ish prison. He at empted to iatcrfcre, and Baron Fava, an Italian Minister, saw Mir. Blaine about tho matter. The answer was | then mado to Mir Blane's message on tho
 sgbiec. tAat all the pr soners were Amer can citizens. There seems to be some diff ference of opinion on this subie l. 1t is claim d by Siynor C)rte that three or tho dead men were still Italian sub ee S: Mon asterio, Trahini and NJ rc hesi. it should ba rot, d, by the way, that the boiie' o!
