from Honolulu OF the British cruiser Cham
rion to seize Johnston Island has occasioned
interest In San Francisco. where the Ameri.
cans who claim It's ownership belong. That 1t
| Ia an American possession which the Cham
| pion Is about to take possession OF. there can
| be no doubt. Washington despatch to-day
says that the State Department has gathered
cloar proof Of American title to tho island
which the British now wish to grab and use as
relay station for their proposed cable from
Honolulu to New Zealand.
Capt. Roberts Of this city. who is one Of tho
present owners. said to-day that there was no
question OF the American title to the island.
Fully $4,000 had been expended on the
Island. he and his partner. Mayors. had sent
sloop and bark down there. but OF late had
not dono anything. as the guano was not first
class.
Tho island" said Capt. Roberts. lies in
tho rainy belt, and the richer portion Of the
guano deposit is washed to the sea. Ono car
go was taken from there to New York. but the
charterer Of the ship lost $4,000. The island
would be valuable to the United States for
many purposes. and would be just as impor-
tant to England. 1t lies Just south OF the d.
rect route to China. and Is on the proposed
route ofthe English cable from New Zealand
to Honolulu.
In case OF war the Hawaiian Islands and tho
Samoan Islands would be neutral, but john
ston Island is in an important position and
could be used as station by the government
In possession. There ia excellent anchorage
tncre. although about $4,000 worth Of dyna-
mite would be needed to blow UP some Of the
coral to widen the mouth Of the harbor.
Tho island is about six feet above water on
the right side OF the harbor. and vessels can
lie right alongside without any wharf In
troublesome times tho island would be worth
great deal to this country. No other island
as suitable for o station could be purchased
for 100000. There can be no doubt about
the island being the property OF Americans.
Mayors and myself have the original papers Of
Parker. and his deed to US. We also have an
affidavit sworn to by him before Cheever. then
Clerk OF the United States District Court. in
which he states that he discovered Johnston
Island. and never transferred his interest to
any cOrporation."

Mr.. Wilder was using n palm leaf fan as he

that OF a serpent from zenith to horizon. He
says thero was a distinct serpents head. and
that tho spectacle lasted an hour. There was
no commotion OF the sea.
Cnpt. Thompson Of tho Trnacria says he saw
