FRE1GHTs. The Freight Circular of
Brown Co., New York. reports for the week
ending Aug. II: Off shore freghts continue
to be maintained upon firm basis by the
comparatively small supply of tonnage at
hand The inquiry, however, is exceptional
~ small for this period, being to a consider
able extent restricted by the unsolved tnan-
cial problems and the acute stringency of
the money market Petroleum freights,
through quiet, have reached the highest
point of the season, and whilst they are yet
too low to yield fair return to the carriers.
1t Will not be easy to establish further ma
terial advance SINCE rates are now close up
on a competitive basis for steamers. Case
oil freights to China Japan and the East
Indies continue very dull and in view of the
large fleet of vessels already under commit

TO RUN TO HAWAII.
A New Steamer Line From
Tacoma.
A BRITISH VESSEL SELECTED.
The British Ship Grandholm Has Been
Chartered and VIII Soon Start
on the Initial Trip.

From the latest advces it appears that
the new steamer line that has been pro-
jected to run from Tacoma to Honolulu is
about to become reality, and within few
weeks the first steamer will start from Ia
coma on her initial trip.
The British steamer Grandholm has been
chartered and others will speedily follow.
1t is probable that no vessels will be bought
until the present uncertainty with regard
to the Government OF Hawaii has been
definitely settled.
The GrandhOlm is on her return from a
trip to Nanaimo, whitner she went under a
charter of John Rosen fields Sons to carry q
cargo of ccal She left Nauaimo on the
19ih Inst. 1t is probable that immedi-
aiely upon dischargiIg she Will 90 to Ia
coma and prepare for her new work.
The Grandhom is an iron screw steamer
built by Hail. Russell & CO. at Aberdeen,
Scotland, in 1884. She is 1882 feet long,
32. broad and 17.3 deep and has net tom
mage of 1868.
The management of the new line was un-
oltunate in its first efforts al purchase.
Early in December Captain Ross was dis
patched to HOng-kang to buy the British
steamer Zlmbesi which was considered 10
be the most available vessel for the work
third OF the purchase money had been
handed over.
During the first week in December and
while Captain Ross was yet on his way the
Iambesi c0lided with the Hnkumon Manu-
coasting vessel, in Yeddo Bay. Her COM
par,mentS were filed with water and five
plates were stove in. She had to be beached
to save her from sinking.
subsequently the steamer was repaired at
an expense OF $4,000 but Captain Ross
was instructed TO let the Zambesi 20 and
purchase some other vessel about her build.
Failing in this he returned TO Tacoma
without accomplishing his mission.
The recent action of the Seattle Chamber
OF Commerce in attempting to cut Tacoma
off and make Seattle the northern terminus
by Offering a subsidy of $1,000 a month was
rejected by the merchants of the Sound and
has added an intense color of local jealousy
u the undertaking.
The GTandhulm will carry lumber, cereals
and transeontineDtal exports from Wash
lnGton and will return with a cargo of rice,
bananas, etc, from the islands. 1t is
doubtful II there will be much traffic in
sugar, as there is no refinery in the Sound
country 10 handle it,"

The Lawyer Has the Deed


A young lawyer In the city had as a client
some time ago a negro charged with assault
and battery. and the accused now owes his
liberty to the fine work doue in his behalf
by his counsel. who put up the / lea Of IN
sanity as his defense, aud was sustained by
the jury. 1t was a hard fight. The fee was
q good one. but the negro had no cash. In
lieu thereof be decided a building lot in the
suburbs 10 his lawyer, who accepted the
deed, duly signed and delivered, and locked
1t away in his safe.
A short time ago he bethought him that
with the help OF building and loan asso-
citation he might put house on that lot and
Increase its value, so lie offered the property
for loan to one of the home building and
loan associations. His application was duly
received. but when he went around to hear
the result the secretary told him that the
committee had rejected the application.
The ast0niShed lawyer asked the reason;
the lot was good, the loan small and the
title good, for he had examined into that
part OF 1t. The secretary said that the
committee differed with ths lawyer as to
the title, because, while they they them
selves were not lawyers they failed to see
how a negro who had been released by
Jury Oh a plea of insanity could give good
title to property. The young lawyer still

All that the helmsman has To do is to

that, the ship being on her course, both are

AFRAID OF RATS.
They Cause CONSERVATION Among
Elephants.

Elephants.
Bridgeport journal.
Circus and menaGerie men say that wild
animals, even in captivity, are greatly
afraid of rats and mice. Elephants are
said 10 have a special aversion TO them,
even greater than thai of women, for fear
that the mice may crawl into their trunks
and sutfocate them. A story Is told of an
elephant which stampeded at Nation, ILL.,,
at the sight of a rat. To prove the truth or
falsity of these reports number of rats
and mice were captured and held in cages
to be used in experiments on the animals
On arriving in the lion house Keeper Nc
Donald tied a string TO the tail of a large
rat and tossed hlm into the cage. The lions
smelied of him and lay down in disgust.
and the tigers, all but one, paved the rat
and seemed TO look upon his visit as sort
of joke. The exception was a fer0ciOus
Bengal monster called Jack, who exhibited
the greatest signs OF terror the moment the
rat was allowed 10 run in his cage.
In another building fifteen elephants
were experimental on in the same manner.
They hOwled and tIumpeted in a terrible
way whenever the captive rat came near
their trunks and If the big beasts hah not
been securely fastened there would have
been trouble. Even old clTcQs followers
showed tendency 10 remain ear the door
ways, so great tugging aud S-rugglIng did
the elephants make at their chains. To end
the experiment all the rats and mice were
turned loose in the elephant-hOuse, and

jesse W. Clarke in Donahoe's Magazine
The paper on whose staff l was employed
in the campaign of 1874 was, perhaps the
most virulent of all Buffers newspaper
assailants. AS l was then a very Young
man, anxious to get fair start in my pro-
feSsiOn, and hence chiefly concerned TO
please my managing editor, l had taken
great pains from night to night to make my
reports OF General Buffers speeches and
the popular reception thereof as full as pos
sible of the "gail and bitterness" which
had been instructed to put into them. 1t
was under these circumstances that 1 first

way from Boston to Gloucester. was one
of party OF newspaper men all bound on
the same errand namely to report the gen.
erals speech that evening at Gloucester.
We were seated at one end of the car,
chatting together, when the door at the
other end opened and General Butler
stalked down the aisle. AS he came TO our
end OF the car he stopped, and, recognizing
us as newspaper men, greeted us with a
hearty "GO0d-morning, gentlemen" Then,

ragged, whisky-soaked wreck, who wanted
Just few pennies TO get something to eat,
stepped beside him and said:

So did the beggar, and he said. Come,

Les took little longer and still quicker

time they had walked side by side for a
