FIRE IN THE STEAMER WAL
ALEALE.
The Boston Finishes Coaling 49, The
Alden Besse's Sailing Post
poned,

The sailing of the bark Alden Besse
for San Francisco was postponed from
to-day till to morrow, owing to the
lateness of the arrival OF 500 bags of
rice, which were to complete her cargo.
Three hundred of these were received
from the Mile Morris this morning
and the balance will be on hand day.
The Alden Besse has been in port for
five weeks, during which time her cap
tain and officers have made many new
friends and renewed many pleasant
acquaintance.
United States Senator Hoar has
introduced a bill in the Senate ap
propriating $a3,soo for the relief of the
Hawaiian bark Arctic, for losses sus.
tanned in abandoning the business Of
undertaking and rescuing I76 sea
men in the Arctic Sea.
Tuesday night, while the steamer
Waialeale was on her way to Kauai, a
lamp was upset in the lamp room and
sewing machine set on fire The
blaze was discovered and extinguished
before damage was done to anything
but the machine.
A new railing was placed at the end
of the dock adjoining the Pilots boat
landing this morning. To make it
permanent it will be necessary to put IA
row of sharp spikes along the top rail.

trim it is expected she will sail for the
| Coast next week.

up to what is known as the new wharf,
where she will discharge 800 tons oi
coal into the steamer Hawaii, for Ka.
huui
The Waialele returned last night, but
brought no passengers. A part of hei
cargo consisted of FIVE. ton roller from
the Hanamauu mill.
From the activity noticed on the
bark Discovery during the morning ii
appears that she is to begin to take a
cargo soon.
The Boston took seventy.fve tons Of
coal this forenoon, which completed
her $50 tons.
The steamer Kinsu sailed this after
noon for her usual trip to windward.
The schooner Mile Morris arrived

The Chinese Ex-Minister Declined to

begged leave, etc, to express his pride
and pleasure that so humble servant,
ETC., of His Imperial Majesty the
Brother of the Sun and Moon and the
First Cousin to the Comet, ETC., should
be so highly and worthily honored, and
while assuring her ex-Majesty of his
distinguished consideration, he trusted
that he might venture to decline the
invitation. 10 other words, he wouldn't
call, and the agent of the late sovereign

NOT GUILTY OF FRAUD.
so SAY TRUSTEES OF THE
BISHOP ESTATE.
The Charges of Fraud and Undue In
huence in Procuring the Will
Of Akahi Denied

About two weeks since a petition
was filed in the Circuit Court by one
Keawehaku, claiming to be the nearest
relative of A. Akahi, native lady who
died some fifteen yours since, and
asked that the probate of her will be
set aside on the ground that fraud and
undue influence had been used in
procuring her signature to it. On &C.
count Of the time which has elapsed
since the will was proved and the fact
that the property willed by the lady
now forms portion Of the Bishop
estate, the trial of the cause is apt to
create considerable interest.
Messrs. F. NJ. Hatch and c. w.
Ashford, attorneys for the trustees of
the estate, filed the following answer
to the charges at q P. NJ. to-day:
In the matter of the estate of Akahi,
deceased. Petition to revoke probate.
Answer of the trustees Of the estate
And now comes Cbas. R. Bishop
S. NJ. Damon, Chas. Nj. Cooke, Chas.
M. Hyde and ]. o. Carter, trustees Of
the estate Of Bernice Pauahi Bishop,
deceased, and not waving any right OF
exception to the errors and insufficient
cies of the compliments bill of com
plant, for answer to 50 much thereof
as they are advised it is necessary to
answer, say:
They deny that the petitioner is next
Of kin to A. Akahi wv, late of Homo
lulu, deceased.
They deny that the said Akahi died
intestate. They admit that the said
A. Akahi died seized of real estate of
more than the value Of $1,000, but do
not admit that the lands named in said
bill were all the property of said Akahi.
They admit that said Charles R.
Bishop, on October E, 1877, filed a
petition in the Supreme Court for the
probate of the will of said A. Akah ;
that on the 9th day of November, 1871,
after due notice by advertisement, a
hearing was had on said petition that
said will was then duly admitted to
probate, and that respondents have
come into possession of real estate in
consequence of said will.
They deny that said will was not
the will of said A. Akahi, and
that it was not drawn up at her re-
quest, and that it was not read to her
and that she did not sign it, and that
she did not request the witnesses theret o
to sign the same.
They deny that said will was an in
strument signed by cheat, fraud or false
representation, and that it was drawn
up by J. w, Aumai without the order
Of said deceased.
They deny that new witness has
been discovered by said petitioner in
the year 1892 who will prove that said
will is not the will of said Akahi and
duly executed by her, and they deny
that any evidence has been discovered
by the petitioner which could not with
ordinary diligence have been discovered
before, and they submit that petitioner
is estopped by his laches from further
litigating the question of the validity Of
the will
They deny that proof Of said will
was obtained by false testimony.
They deny all of the other allega
tons in said complaint not herein
specifically denied, and pray that plain
tiff's petition be dismiss ed with costs

Beauties of the Moonlight Seized
ule' Demonstrated Last Night.
Streets Wrapt i'm Blackness Between 6
and 8 OClOck-A Caye-in on A.
senal Avenue.

People who were on the streets between
6 and 8 O'Clock last evening had O first-class
demonstration of the beauties of the moon
costing the city SIC. COZ per year. according
TO Controller Woollen's estimate. As the
moon was scheduled to rise between 6 and
z o'clock. the light company did not start
it's engines. The situation was full of dis
comfort and inconvenience to those whom
necessity compelled to leave their domi-
Giles. Happily the moon came up as sched-
uled. but 1t was 8 o'clock before it got
above the trees and house tops and began
TO perform the functions assigned 1t
in the celebrated moonlight schedule"
For two hours the city was in darkness.
The situation was especially exasperating
in the suburbs. where the heavy foliage of
the trees and the long lapses between
glimmerings from friendly windows made
locomotion difficult. Pedestrians made
their way with difficulty, humping alter
nately against trees and against
each other. stumbling over obstruc-
tioDs and occasionally missing a crossing
and stepping of into a gutter. The "noon-
light schedule" as illustrated Oy it's opera
ton last evenIng is q delusiOn and a fraud.
It should be revised or abolished. The city
Is paying u good. round fat sum for light.
The contractors have a good thing in their
contract. and the citizens have u right to
demand lighted streets during every hour
of the night when the moon is OFT
duty. The boast Of the Sullivan adj
ministration Is that IL has made q
city out of indianapolis. The conditions
that prevailed last night, so far as light is
