SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 6.-The Pacific
Mail steamer City of Peking, Captain
Robert r. Searle, reached port safely
this afternoon, 2S days from Yokohama,
and is now moored to her dock. The
delay was caused by the breaking of the
main shaft in the stern post sleeve
at 6 O'Clock on the morning of Jam
uary 2l. When the break came there
was a jar which woke up the slumber-
ing passengers, but they were quickly
assured by the captain and officers that
there was no cause for alarm. The en-
gines were Immediately stopped 60 that
there was no danger by pounding. When
the accident happened the vessel was
about 1400 miles from San Francisco.
The rest of the voyage was made under
sail.
The steamer was picked up about 20
miles southwest of the Farrallones at 8
O'Clock this morning by the tug Vigilant
and towed to the heads, where the tug
Fearless took hold and the steamer
came into port at ten-knot rate. The
Peking was under sail for II days. Every
one on board was in the best of health,
end with the exception of the long
voyage, no Inconvenience was experi-
enced by the passengers. The fresh
provisions held out well, and the chief
steward was able to present, up to the
time of reaching port, bill OF fare that
would have done credit to the best hotel.
Captain Searles, in his report, says the
Peking sailed from Yokohama January
10. and all went well until January 81,
when the steamer was HOO miles from
San Francisco, the shaft broke in the
! sleeve. 1t was impossible to mend it, i,
and the vessel proceeded under sail.
She encountered head winds nearly all
the way, and during IL dayn dndef sail
covered over 1400 miles Beyond the
long delay and the breaking OF the shaft
nothing exciting occurred. The tug
Fearless has been sent out to notify the
San Juan that the Peking had arrived.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 6.--The president
this afternoon, in response to resou-
tion adopted last Friday, transmitted to
the senate copies of the annexation
treaty negotiated between representa-.
tives OF the United States and King
Kamehameha in 1S45, together with the
correspondence in relation thereto. The
correspondence includes letter OF in

to the United States Minister to Hawaii
Gregg; Gregg's report to the state de-
lpartment. narrating the circumstances
Of the negotiation Of the treasy and the
condition of affairs in the islands at that
time (the minister reports the death of
King Kamehameha and the accession of
his successor to the throne, and the SUBJ
sequent decline of the annexation senti-
ment under the new king, and finally
Secretary Marcy's letter to the minister
expressing his approval of the terms of
treaty as negotiated.
Although the letter of Secretary
Marcy was written nearly 40 years ago
it is thought to fairly present the views
OF this administration upon the ques-
ton of the annexation Hawaii. Ia it
he objected to the immediate incorpora-
ton of the Islands into the United
States as an independent state, and
said:
81 understand the measure proposed
by the people and that in which the
present rulers are disposed to concur, is
annexation as distinguished from pro-
lection, and their intention is that those
islands shall become part of our terri
. tories and be under the control of this
government as fully as any other of its
territorial possessions. Should the
sovereignty of these islands be trans-
ferred to the United States, the present
government would, as matter of course,
be superseded by, or at least be sub
jected to the federal authority OF this
country"

principal stakeholder and its general
manager. His family grew up sur
rounded by every luxury. Miss Annie
was, during a large part of her
youth, decided invalid, and much of
her early life was spent at her father S,
home on the Hudson in New York.
Her fran health prevented her attend
ance at any of the famous colleges, but
she was given every educational ad-
vantage through q corps of governesses
maintained at the northern home.
This was reinforced by travelling, and
in consequence Miss Howard is most
cosmopolitan. She has been in Europe
half dozen times, has Travelled sever
al times entirely over the United
States, and has resided for whole sea-
sons in different representative sec
tons of it. Mr.. Howard usually lived
with his daughter at his New York
home. while Mrs. Howard resided in
New Orleans with the boys. 1t was
while trying to break in q horse for his
daughter to ride that Mr. Howard was
thrown and killed in 1857.
Since that time Miss Howard has
maintained her former mode of life,
has been constantly travelling, and has
passed most of her time in the north.
seldom spending more than month
or two in New Orleans. However, she
has large circle of friends in that
CITY, has occasionally entertained on
an elaborate scale, has given a great
deal to local charities, joined with her
brothers and mother in erecting a
magnificent library for the city, max
ing it a repository of archives and
articles relating to the history Of
Louisiana There is hardly a New
Orleans charity to which she has not
literally contributed. BY the death Of
her father six years ago Miss Howard
inherited S7O0, 900. This has been
judiciously invested, and has doubtless
increased since. notwithstanding the
large inroads she has made on it in
order to give to charitable and public
movements. The ladys mother, her
brothers, Frank T. and Harry t., and
their families reside in New Orleans,
where they are leading figures in So
ciety, patrons especially of music and
the dispensers of most lavish and
elaborate hospitality.

FREDERICK D. TAPPEN.

Is a peculiar one--it does very little
business with Out-of-town banks, and
so has practically not felt the panic Of
1898 at all. 1t was Mr.. Happens simple
and direct methods of doing business
in his own bank that made him desir-
able head for the clearing house and
has made it possible for him to devote
so much of his time to keeping the af-
fairs of other bankers straight.
Simplicity and directness are, in fact,
his most striking characteristics. There
are no frills or furbelows about Fred
erick d. Happen. AS he sat in his
chair at the bank the other afternoon he
looked more like some gruf and sturdy
old warrior than he did like financier.
Despite his shirt sleeves and Ioosened
vest there was a distinctly military
cast to his appearance, and the smooth,
rudy skin, bright brown eyes and firm
hand were those of man who had
spent much of his life in the open air.
The stiff set jaw, shaggy, overhanging
eyebrows, high forehead, rugged mus
tache and white hair suggest Bismarck
at once, but the Bismarck of q quarter
of century ago. The lines OF Bis
marck's seventy-eight years have dug
deeply into his face, while Mr.. Tap
pens sixty-four have passed him by
with a touch not harsher than that
which many men know at fifty.
Physically, mentally and morally
Mr.. Happen is a healthy man. His
path to success has been straight and
STEADY one, bare alike of hills of sud-
den achievement and valleys Of tempe
rary failure.
II have never worked particularly
hard" said he. What little success I
have gained has not come from spasms
of herculean effort. but from constant

If you are looking for something that

Specification of the three letters quoted

is simply the anglicized form 1T the
Dutch word "S Gravenhaaz" or rs
Gravenhaze," either of which in tho
Dutch language means "the counts
hedge" or 1.-THE counts grove or
woods" Originally the location, now
occupied by the city of The Hague was
the hunting grounds of the counts of
Holland. About the year 1910 a palace
was built in the grove. Presently Il
village sprung up around the palace
still it was called ''the counts hedge"
and finally and lastly large city.
