UNION IRON WORKS.
Closing OF the Estabiishur nt.--Meet-
ing of Bondhoidcrs.

What was generally expected for
some time happened yesterday, in the
closing of the Union Iron Works and
discharging of their workmen. Hon.
II. A. Widemann attached a portion
of the plant Tor rent, when Mr.. J. n.
S. Williams the manager gave the
word which resulted in the whole
force of mechanics being dismissed.
The bonded debt of the company
is 800, 900, and the unsecured debts
about $50, 900. There is much sym
patty felt in the community for Mr..
Williams and Mr.. More the superiE-
tendent, fwho invested heavily in the
stock themselves, as well rs for the
workmen, some of whom hold stock
and all lose their employment, also
for several persons outside the works
who invested part of their moderate
means in the concern. There are
other small creditors of the company
who can i'll afford to lose tue amounts
due to them. The workmen are pro-
missed their pay on Saturday.
The bondholders held meeting
this mo- ming at the office of Mr.. A.
j. Cartwright, 10 consider whether
or not to authorize the trustees to
foreclose the mortgages. They adj
journed without coming to a conclu-
sion, till II O'Clock tomorrow. A
proposition was laid before the meet
ing from the stockholders, that the
first and second mortgage bondhold-
ers should accept 80 and so percent,
respectively, of the face value of
their bonds, and that the stockhold-
ers should subscribe the amount re-
quisite TO redeem the bonds when so
reduced, and go on with the bust
ness. No action was taken on this
proposition.
The trustees-Messrs. A. j. Cart
wright, w. +. Allen and w. o. Smith
are awaiting the action of the bond
holders as to applying to the Court
for receiver of the Union Iron
Works, to wind up its affairs so as
to cause as little sacrifice as possible
to any of the interests concerned.
The stockholders also held meet
ing this morning. the full results of
which have not TRANSFERRED. 1t is
understood that they voted to sane
tion the action of the trustees in TAX
ing possession of the mortgaged
property and closing 1t up under
supervision of the Court through the
hands of receivers.

THE HAWAIIAN HISTORICAL
SOCIETY,

On the evening of Dec. 2Sth,
few of our citizens met and engaged
in an informal interchange of ideas
in regard TO the Importance of form
ing an Historical Society. Prof.
Alexander was chosen temporary
chairman, and the Rev. DR.. Hyde
secretary. 1t was then decided that
the proper time had come for the
organization of such society, and
committee composed of Prof. Alex
ander, Rev. DR.. Hyde and Mr.. j. S.
Emerson was chosen To draft con-
stitution. An adjourned meeting was
held last Monday evening at the
Honolulu Library, at which this COM
mittee made its report. A large
number of our most prominent citi-
zens attended, and much interest was
shown in the formal organization of
the new society. After the adoption
of the constitution the following Of
ticers were unanimously elected:
President, Hon. G. r. Bishop; Vice
President, Mr.. j. S. Emerson; Cor
responding Secretary, Hon. w. d.
Alexander; Recording Secretary,
Rev. DR.. c. M. Hyde: Treasurer,
Mr.. I. G.. Thrum. The constitution
states that the object of the society
is "the collection, study, and utiliza-
ton of all materials illustrating the
Ethnology, Archaeology and History
of the Hawaiian Islands" Active
members are to pay an initiation fee
of five dollars and an annual fee of
one dollar. 1t is hoped that arrange
ments will be made by which the
society will secure as its permanent
quarters, for the accommodation of
its prospective library and place of
meeting, the large front room Of the
Honolulu Library. Immediate eff
forts are to be made for the forma.
ton of library which shall include
all books relating in any way to this
Kingdom, and all books, pamphlets
and newspapers ever printed on the
Hawaiian Islands.
1t is confidently hoped that all of
our citizens will cooperate with the
officers and members of this society
in their attempts to make this library
as complete as possible. Several
gentlemen have already expressed a
willingness to donate files OF Hawai-
ian newspapers and collections Of
pamphlets, and it is expected that
others will soon follow their exam pie.
This society has been organized none
too soon. Much historical material
of the greatest value has already
disappeared, which would have been
preserved had there been a proper
home for its reception. The society
enters upon its career under the most
encouraging auspices, and if our
citizens will aid it by becoming mem
bers, and working, as opportunities
may present themselves, for the OBJ
jects for the accomplishment of which
it was formed, the Hawaiian His
, torical Society" will not only prove
a great success, but it will also before
long become an organization to which
all of US may point with honest pride.
We understand that donations of
books, pamphlets and newspapers
may be left at the Honolulu Library,
or sent 10 any officers of the society
and that they will be gratefully
acknowledged.

Too Much Rain In Spain.

MADRID, Feb. 6.-The year 1891 was
marked IN Spain by succession of
floods, which destroyed thousands of
human lives, drowned an almost
countless number of horses, mules
and cattle, swept away valuable crops
and did other damage to an meal
culable extent. The disaster at Con-
suegra, where hundreds upon hundreds
Of people were awakened from their
sleep by the thrush of the waters, and
who were overwhelmed by the mad tor
rent, is still fresh in the minds of the
Spanish people. Already this year
there has occurred at Seville a flood
in the Guadalquivir which did
immense damage. and to-day
come reports from many places
in the northern part of the kingdom
stating that heavy floods are devastat-
ing the country there. From the dis
patches received it is evident that the
floods prevail throughout all the north
ern provinces. Already great damage
has been done and greater is feared, as
the waters show no signs of subsiding
