A big crowd filled Music Hall Thurs
day night-a crowd seeking entertain
ment and qualification of their curiosi-
ty regarding the farce comedy by Frank
Humphrey. The musical skit was well
received and the songs by Harry B.
Roche were especially popular. The
orchestra which is composed of several
former members of the Ninth Regiment
band, is an excellent organization
throughout, and their part of the per-
formance was generously recognized.

RECIPROCITY A FAILURE.
Spain and Brazil Repeatedly Evade Their
Treaty Obligations.

WASHINGTON, May Am evening
paper has this: Abundant reasons for
the abandonment of the policy of re
ciprocity under the Mckinley bill ex-
ISIS in complaints received by the
State Department regarding the evas.
ion Of the Spanish officials in Cuba.
The Spanish Government was forced
into the treaty by the diplomacy of
Blaine, because of the fear that if Cuba
sugar growers were deprived of their
market in the United States through
reciprocity arrangements with other
sugar growers countries they would re-
volt against Spain.
The Government intends to make the
treaty 50 unpopular that it will fall to
the ground of its own weight, and has
imposed an excise tax nearly equal to the
duties RENTED by the Mckinley bill
Our Government will either protest
strongly against the tax or wipe out the
whole treaty and leave Cuban growers
to face possible import duty under
our new tariff. The Spanish Govern
ment has also shown an inclination to
make trouble over the schedule of arti
cles on which duty is reduced by the
treaty The Brazilian Government is
also making trouble over the Reciproc
| ity Treaty, but is not, apparently, vio-
lating its obligations SO 1agrantly as the
Government Of Spain. 1t is under
stood that when the schedules of dis
ordinations in favor of the United
States was made that the general scale
of Brazilian import duties might be
raised. Brazil took advantage of this
arrangement 70 raise the dutiable
schedules as soon as the reciprocity
arrangement was made, and said she
was obliged to do SO in order to obtain
sufficient revenue for carrying on the
Federal Government.

HAWAIIAN STAR NEWSPAPER COMPANY,
WHO PAYS THE TAXES.

THE STAR presents in this issue a
list of the heaviest taxpayers on Oahu
island, showing the value of the large
parcels of property upon which they
pay tithes to the government and the
political sentiments of the owners.
The list, which has been prepared
with care and revised by competent
hands is believed to be correct in its
essential features, but it is still open
to any notifications that eXactitude
may require. We have no fear but
that the figures will stand, though il
may be that some persons who are
marked in one political column may
choose to appear in another, in which
case this journal, if advised, will altei
the record. AS the footings stanC

whose affiliations are not a matte
of record. The lesson of such ar
exhibit appears on its face.

A HUMBUG ISSUE.

The organs of the lost cause are dis
tressed at the cost of maintaining the
military force which preserves the
peace and holds the enemies Of the
Government in check. 1t is not re-
membered that they found any fault
with the profigate expenditures Of the
monarchist regime, either for navy or
for foreign tours; but, of course, that
was a horse of a different color and Of
their own curying. In the present
case, where the military is used to keep
down faction which, when it was in
power, fed them with a wasteful hand
from the plumber of the worst governed
country on earth, all their economical
instincts are aroused and they would
have the soldiery reduced at once to Z
corporaps guard in behalf of the poor
taxpayers. Quite likely if Mr.
Bruett and other gentlemen Of
a thrifty turn of mind who
are now Sojourning in the hills coulc
be consulted, they would express the
same idea regarding the size and cosr
of the police force, as would the dis
contented opium smugglers at the
numerical strength and the vigilan
personnel of the customs service. AL
these classes OF Adullamites feel as one
man on the great issue of economy, anc
must be sore indeed because the tax
payers-in whose behalf they so dis
interestedly work-are SO needless o
their constant losses. But twas evel
thus Those who labor most to hell
other people are the least appreciated
in this unfeeling world by the othe
people themselves.

PAUL NEUMANS ARRIVES.
He is on Private Business and will Not
Go East.

Paul Neuman, who was Attorney
General of the Hawaiian Kingdom
under Queen Llliuokalaui arrived
yesterday on his second trip to this
county since the Provisional Govern
ment took charge of the Sandwich
Islands. He states that his visit is tor
the purpose of seeing his first grand
son, who was born on Easter Sunday
in this city, and that it is not at all con
nected with the affairs of the island
kingdom. He expects to return on the
Australia to Honolulu and then make
trip to Japan on what he calls private
business.
Mr.. Neuman stated that he knew
nothing OF the Queens hopes as to her
restoration, but claimed that the native
population is l'yal to her. He said
that everybody was waiting anxiously
for the completion of Commissioner
Blounts work Minister Stevens was
preparing to depart when Mr. Neuman
left, and it was generally understood
that Consul Severance would fill his
place until his successor was appointed.
There was nothing known at the islands
to corroborate the report that Com
missioner Blount would succeed Minis
ter Stevens Chronicle.

OPINIONS OF A VISITOR.
Strength of the Provisional Government
Spreckles' Attitude.

Colonel c. i. Macarthur, editor OF
the Budget of Troy, N. Y, arrived on
the Australia from Honolulu yesterday.
In an interview with a Call reporter,
Colonel Macarthur expressed himself
as delighted with the country he had
Just left after a two months sojourn
there, and as strongly in favor of annex
alton for the Islands.
"This delay is hurting the tradesmen
in the Islands very much, " said Colonel
Macarthur, "and am sorry to see it.
l am afraid there will be a good many
failures in the Islands before this crisis
is passed The Provisional Govern
ment is in a strong financial position
day and is able to hold its own
against any power likely to step in ex-
cept the United States, which will
never be an aggressive power in that
quarter,
"CIaus Spreckels is the creditor Of
the old Government to the amount of
$1,000 but he is not pressing that
claim, and has even made offers of
assistance to the Provisional Govern
ment. The Government however, has
not found it necessary to accept them,
having already all the financial backing
it needs, and Mr., Spreckels has signed
the memorial of the planters to Blount
asking for annexation.
soon after his arrival Mr. SpreCkels
called a meeting of the planters, at
which he read long paper, claiming
fthat annexation would ruin the planters
inside Of five years, He then exerted
his influence to persuade the meeting
to recommend an independent repub
llCan form of government for the is
lands, but on taking vote on the
question it was found that a majority
Of the present favored annexation.
Baldwin of Kauai took the ground
which was loudly approved by the
planters, that they would rather sacrifice
something than to oppose annexation
In fact, the sentiment among them is
that even at the expense of losing THEN
contract labor they would rather have
ANNEXATION than not.
"There is no doubt but that the
planters can obtain all labor they need
under free labor system. The Japan
csc Government is already sending mer
to the Islands who are not under con
tract and have in view the establish
ment of an agency in Honolulu. The
planters might have to pay more undel
such system, but they would get better
work.
"a good deal of speculation ha:
been rife over this trip of Paul Neu
mann's to the coast. 1t is rumored tina
he goes from here to Japan, and report
at the Islands was that his mission wa.

but there is a limit beyond which press

THE EX-QUEENS HORSES.
They Run Away and Smash Her Car
rage to Smithereens.

The eX Queen missed an experience
the other day that might have caused
her a loss of life or limb. Her new
team of spirited bay horses ran away
and were not stopped until they had
badly smashed the vehicle to which
they were attached. Fortunately for
the eX Queen, she was not in her car
rage when heaccident occurred. Her
coachman, who had charge of the
horses, dismounted to open a gate at
WAIKIKI, when the animals became
frightened and dashed madly
down the road towards town.
Several efforts were made to stop
them as they ran towards King street
on the Waikiki road, but without avail
There were a number of narrow
escapes from collision by pedestrians
and drivers along the route, but the
runaways dragging the Swaying vehicle
behind them reached King street with,
out accident They turned to the
right on King Street and after running
about one hundred yards collided with
post There was tremendous smash
and the horses broke from their har-
ness but stood still trembling with
fear, and were easily caught and led
