S. S. MONOWAI.

The Union Steamship Co.'s r. M.
S. S. Monowai arrived at noon today
from San Francisco. She left that
port on the 1st inst. at 5 p. M, and
for the first two days experienced
fine weather. The next three days,
however, were very unfavorable,
heavy westerly sea and head winds
greatly retarded the ships way.
Since then the weather has been all
that could be desired, smooth sea and
light S. K. winds.
On this trip the Monowai takes
down to Australia the celebrated Nj.
Sarah Bernhardt and her company.
Madame Bernhardt has, so far,
greatly enjoyed the trip, and speaks
in high terms of the comforts of the
Monowal and the attention she re-
ctives on board.
Hon. |. B. Peterson, late Commits
sioner of Customs for the colony of
Victoria, is also passenger.

SAN FRANCISCO LETTER.
BULLETIN SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE.
SAN FRANCIsCO. Nav |.

SAN FRANCISCO, May l.
On the Dist of April mention was
made of the incorporation of new
sugar refinery company, with which
street rumor connected the name of
Mr.. Steele. The incorporators are
Edward L. G. Steele, 1900 shares,
$l50,000; George A. Moore, 1875
shares, $4,000; Edward Polhemus,
100 shares, $40, 900; Everett N. Bee,
100 shares, $40, 900; M. Hall Meal
lister, 100 shares, $4,000; E. l.. G.
Steele & Co., S075 shares, $S07 800.
The capital stock is $1,000,000. 1t
will be seen, therefore, that Mr..
Steele and his clerks subscribe the
entire capital. The following direct
ors have been elected: f. l.. G.
Steele, George A. Moore, Ed. Pol
hemus, Everett N. Bee and M. Hall
McAllister. So they are all in it.
But Mr.. Steele has not made progress
on the outside. Capital fights shy of
his project, and it is likely to remain
promising industry" on paper for
quite while longer. What Mr.. Ell.
q. Steele does not know about sugar
refining would fill the vacuum pan
in first class refinery.
The news by the Zealandia that
the volcano was again showing activ-
ity has come to hand opportunely,
because tourists can hardly be per-
suaded to take the long sea trip to
the Islands and see nothing but the
smoking crater of Kilauea on their
arrival at the Volcano House. Should
this news be confirmed you may ex-
pect an active tourist season.
Sarah Bernhardt has divided the
popular honors with President Har-
rison during the week. Her short
season here has been continued
triumph, and what is more TO the
point, it has been very paying one.
But as the good people of Honolulu
will have an opportunity of seeing
Bernhard in Camille" it is need
less to criticise her acting. They
can form their own opinion, and
from Camille imagine Cleopatra, but
they never could imagine, from such
a representation, her pure and exalt-
ed conception of the Maid of Orleans.
The truth is, Sarah Bernhardt is not
to be judged by ordinary canons.
She is gifted with g.iius which
lifts her above criticism, and enables
her to make each character new
and perfect creation of its kind.
The Western Sugar Refinery Com
pany began operations last week with
headquarters at Messrs. Spreckels'
office. The American refinery is
closed for the present, while
the California Refinery Is worked
up to its full capacity. There is
a great deal of Hawaiian sugar at
top prices 10 he worked IF. Quota
lions seem to satisfy the trade, and
business i, active although there are
no speculative PURCHASES. Raw sugar

THE AVERAGE TYPEWRITER
Not Up to the Requirements for Literary
 

J
 Work.
 One of the brightest literary women in Chicago, and writer of wide repu- tation, said the other day: "There is an impression that the field of type writers, particularly women, is over run. I admit that this is true but when you come to qualify typewriters it is different I have great deal of dicta- ting to do, and as my work is for the press and magazines I am very careful 1 have found as a rule that it takes nearly as much time for me to correct the typescript as it would take to write the article at the start For ordinary commercial work the average type writer is good enough, but ninety per cent. of them become hopelessly in volved when they come in contact with literary work. The trouble with them is that they work mechanically, or they are not educated so as to bo of any service for the work done by literary people. There is field for educated typewriters. Inasmuch as a great deal of this work is done from dictation, it has become almost essential for a com potent typewriter to be a stenographer Now and then you will find type writer who can print from dictation, but they are few. My best work prefer to have taken in shorthand and then printed from the notes There is something about the operation of a type-machine which confuses me, and have heard the same complaint made by others who are in the same line as that in which am engaged"
 Do you operate the machine?"
 'fes; but the work which do iu that way is never so satisfactory as that which l dictate to my stenographer ''- Chicago Tribune.

A Religious Secession.

An entire commune in France, that of Murat, recently went over to Protestant ism. The bishop of Cahors was asked to grant the right to hear two masses instead of one every Sunday in the par ish church, as many had to go long distance and it was often inconvenient to set out early. He refused in what seemed to them naughty terms, saying that, as Christ submitted to be crcuci- fled for their sakes, if they could not get out of their beds early in the morn ing to be in time for church they were not worthy of the name of Catholics. This caused great offense. A public meeting was held on the church green, and petition was sent to the minister of public worship to give the commu- nity Protestant pastor. A Protestant clergyman was secured, who, when he went to preach his first sermon in an improvised temple, found there an en- thusiastic congregation of a hundred DerSO0S

ATTORNEY GENERALS REPORT.

Recommends that the Chinese Exclusion
 Act be Made More Effective.
 WASHINGTON, Dec 1.-The annual report of Attorney-General Miller was submitted to Congress yesterday.
 It reviews the business of the United States Supreme Court and devotes a chapter to the Circuit Court of Appeals, which, he says, las been organized in each circuit and ready for business, all though the additional circuit judge in each circuit has not yet been appointed.
 The report recommends an appropria- tion Uo carry into effect the act ap- prov July g, 1853, for the establish = ment of d reform school for girls in the District of Columbia.
 After speaking of the we'll known difficulties in the enforcement of the Chinese exclusion act he says:
 ''If it is desired that hese laws shall be male effective they should be so changed as that they cannot be misun- derstoOd. To arrest and try such per sons ani as the result simply send them back across the British line, is shown to be an idle expenditure of time, labor and money by the fact shat, as might well be expected, the same persons have to be arrested and tried over and over again. Moreover, it is quite uncertain whether an orler requiring Chinese prisoners to be sent back into the Brit h Dominion can be made effective. This subject demands prompt consideration.

DR. GRAVES TRIAL
Discourses on ArsenicaI Poisoning-A
 Point for the Prosecution.

Discourses on ArsenicaI Poisoning-A
 Point for the Prosecution.
 DENVER, Col, Dec. 11-Several learn ed discourses on arsenical poisoning were heard yesterday during the trial of Dr. Graves. It was not very interesting day to the spectators, to whom the technical terms were as so much Greek. But it was an interesting day for the prosecution, for it was prove beyond d doubt that the poisonous fluid which Killed Mrs. Barnaby was compounded by chemist of no mean ability.
 Three chemists of established reputa- tion testified to the fact. Prof Haines, of Chicago, Was positive that no on4 but chemist could have compounded the fluid. It was composel of arseni5e of potassium and alcohol and some color ing matter. This mixture was made. by mixing potash and commercial arse nic. In this form it was easily dis solved.
 He said arsenic in it's commercial form would not readily dissolve but would crystalize. The mixture was not obtainabe in any drug store, and for this reason the professor thought the fluid must have been made by ch enlist. Dr. Graves is said to be a practical chemist.
 After testimony of like nature by Professors Headon and Sewell the court adjourned until to- day.

Snake Skins and Eggs.

There is a very handsome pair of boots in the display of feathers at the National Museum made out of rattle snake skins. In some parts of India the hides of serpents are used for orna- mental clothes on account of their un- common beauty. Such garments are very highly valued. Snakes eggs are often eaten. Dr. Buckland tells about some that he put on the shelf of a green house to see if the heat of the sun would hatch them. One morning several of them were gone. Every body denied touching them. At the same time a certain miss, then an inmate of the nursery, was suddenly taken i'll. A physiciFn was sent for and the sobbing culprit reluctantly confessed she had eaten ''some large sugar plums which she had found OF shelf in the green house. She had, in fact, made a repast on the snakes eggs under the delusion that she was robbing the cook of pre- serves put out to dry.-Chicago Herald

 RIO JANEIRo, Dec 1.-The situation here con tinues critical.
 The Government appears to have put off it's apathy and is taking measures to prevent an elneute in this city.
 Large bodies of heavily armed police men are patrolling the streets, and though there are signs of disquiet on svery side there has been no overt act on the part of the malcontents here.
 Advices from Campos, d city of 4), 900 inhabitants in tha province of Rio Ja- neiro and 155 miles northeast of this city, show that at that place there has been an open revolt against the Peix- otto government.

Lawyer George H. Stokes, Who DeHed
 the Onicsrs, Arrested at Last.
 NEW YORK, Dec. 11.-Lawyer George H. Stokes is under restraint again. He was taken to the insane pavilion at Bellevue Hospital last night.
 He was arrested yesterday afte rnoon. after resisting all attempts to take him in custody for twenty hours. The home of Stokes mother on Fourteenth street was surrounded by 8 great crowd all day yesterday, anxious to see the out come of the case.
 Stokes was once 8 successful lawyer of this city. Six years ago he figured as correspondent in the divorce suit brought by Duncan Sniffen against is wife. Sniffen won and forthwith sued Stokes for SIC, 1000 damages. Stokes hs and was next heard of in Egypt and af- terwards in Hong Kong, China, where evidences of insanity were noticed. He disappeared after a while only to turn up again in San Francisco.
 In Oakland, Cal, he shot and nearly killed man. Stokes was arrested. and on proof of insanity was confined in the State Asylum at Stockton. This was over two years ago. An effort was m ade to have him released and Detective Irv- ing went to California. Stokes was discharged and he started away from the asylum with Irving. They only got as far as the hotel in Stock ton when Stokes became crazier than ever.
 Last year he was brought from Cali fornia heavily ironed and under a strong guard, and placed in the Mid- dletown, N. Y., asylum. His release was secured from tn at institution by a lawyer in this city, and he returned to this city, taking up his abode with his mother Mrs SGOkeS.
 He was hardly in the house before he entire family realized that they had 8 dangerous lunatic to deal with.
 There was but one other man in the house, the Rev. Dr. James l.. Maxwell The otker inn ates were Mrs. Moriarty, Mrs. Maxwell, Mrs Jutell and Mrs. Stokes, all the daughters of Mrs. Miller, widow of a wholesale grocer who left $1, GOO, 900. Mrs. Miller, who is 99 years of age, is very feeble. Her daughters, all widows save Mrs. Max we'll, live with her.
 Stokes began carrying things with a high hand as oon as he returned. He threatened the life of his mother, Mrs. Stokes, and his grand Mrs. Mill CT. He repulsed the family's advances and sulked about the house. He mad @ demands for money. From moroseness his insanity changed to an ilI- concealed tendency toward violence. All feared for their lives.
 Finally Mrs. Stokes swore out war rant for her son. arrest.
 A squad of detectives was detailed 70 serve the warrant, but when they ar rived at the house they discovered that an attempt to arrest Stokes would very likely result in some being injured.
 After his arrest he went quietly to the police station, where he stoutly maintained that he was not insane.
