SENATOR HISCOCK ON HAWAII.

HE DOESN'T THINK THE SENATE WILL VOTE
On THE QUESTION THIS SESSION.
Senator Frank Hscock, who at the Fifth Avenue
Hotel Yesterday said he did not believe the Senate
would take vote this session the Hawaiian Ques

The time now is too short before the close OF the
sessions said the Senator and as the matter has 10
be debated, the question will hardly reach vote.
No fault however, can be found with the treaty. II
n q gem, and II II IS satisfactory to the Hawaiian Com
missioners 1t certainly should meet with The approval
OF the American people. There Is no reason why the
matter should be delayed and there has not been ans
undue haste in the matter. We understand the exact
condition Of things on the islands, ana there was
no occasion for delay the treaty was not drawn up
too The the matter Is settled the better
1t will be for all concerned, but 1t takes time TO
debate important question similar to the Hawaiian
matter, and there Is not sufficient time for that
debate, the Hawaans Will have be content 10 wait
Il the matter could be settled before March ], Of
course the commissioners would be better satisfied.
but am afraid that the people Of the island will
have TO wait.

say few Republicans, who hold prominent public
positions, have cried out against annexation, but

HE SAYS THE WILD STORY IS UNTRUE.
E. c. MACFARLANE PUTS NO CREDENCE IN X. J
D. KIMBERLY'S TALE.

E. c. MACFARLANE PUTS NO CREDENCE IN X. J
D. KIMBERLY'S TALE.
f. C. Macfarlane, OF Honolulu, who is at the
Victoria Hotel, says that the story as told by man
at ST. Paul. who gives his name X. J. d. Kimberly
Of Honolulu, is romance pure and simple. The tale
Is 10 the effect that Germans and Englishmen on the
Islands tried to drive away American guards, and
that four OF the Germans killed. 1t was also
said by Mr.. Kimberly that the attacking party had
been armed at the German and English Consulatcs.
According to the thrilling story five Americans had
also been killed in street fight.
81 feel certain that there IS not the slightest ounda
ton for such yarn" said Mr. Macarlane yesterday.
In the first place. the German Consul, II. F. Glade,
Is one OF the strongest supporters OF the Provisional
Government. lie Is as strongly opposed to the Queen
as Mr.. Thurston or any OF the other commissioners.
He IS the Junior partner Of the firm Of Hackfeld
Co. sugar planters, who employ a considerable num-
Der Of the German population. 1t IS not likely that
any body opposed 10 the Provisional Government
would furnish for the purpose OF disturbing his
own interests, and 1t is absurd to say tat Glade
took hand In stirring up a row as told by Mr.
Kimberly.
"The report about the English and Germans at
lacking the palace must be untrue, because The
palace is empty. The last boat that left Honolulu
for san Francisco was the MOp0wai, and Minister
Stevens sent word on that boat that all was quiet
at Hawaii"
Mr. Macfarlane says that the feeling in Washington
has changed in his favor, and he feels certain, he
pays that the Hawaiian treaty will not be ratified
ut the present session of Congress, and that com
mission Will be sent Hawaii to make full report
Of the condition OF things before final action Is taken

Stole the Service.

The Methodist Church was until some
time within the last month possessed Of
an elegant silver service for use in
communion, but the set was not used
last Sunday, owing to piece of vandal.
ism, which should be heavily punished
IL the perpetrators can be discovere d.
The service has been kept under lock in
a closet in the church. A week or two
ago the church was broken into by
some one, unknown, but evidently &C.
quainted with his surroundings and the
place where the silver was kept. Moth
ing else was disturbed but the thief
went directly to the closet, broke the
lock and took out four of the silver
plates and two goblets, which he carried
away and which are still missing. The
church authorities took the matter up
and have been quietly investigating it
with the result that they have discover
ed q slight clue to the robber. Whether
or not criminal prosecution will fol.
low If the clue leads to the detection Of
the miscreant is not known, but it looks
as ii 1t was needed.

INSULT TO INJURY.
Council Has to Pay Lawyers Fees
for the Water Works Opposition.

Council met Tuesday night with no
especial object in view and enjoyed a
nice social little meeting at which a
good deal of the villages business was
discussed and little disposed of.
Last week a committee was instructed
to buy two lots for stone quarry purpos.
es, but Council neglected to ap propriate
any money for the committee to carry
out its instructions with. The matter
was remedied by an appropriation of
$3.50, the price agreed upon.
When Judge Evans rendered his de-
cision in the water works case he made
an allowance of 500 for attorneys fees
for the plaintiffs in the case. Tuesd ay
night Clerk of Courts Walker presented
the cost bill in the suit for payment. 1t
amounts to$l27, including the allowance
for the attorneys fees. Council laid it
on the table until the next meeting.
The allowance is authorized by the
statutes and there is no way for Council
to get out of paying it, but it seems a
little tough for Council to get knocked
in the head and then be forced to pay
their assailants for doing it. The pro-
ceeding is legal but not calculated to
make the "kickers' any more popular
than now.
Mr.. Smith wished to know why the
Street Commissioner hadn't fixed the
High street bridge approach as he was
directed last week. No one knew why
and the Street Committee was told to
find out
Mr.. Pence told Council that certain
private parties were doing weighing
that should be done..on the public scales
and thought it ought to be stopped. A
committee was appointed to give notice
to the parties to quit or their scales
would be ordered removed from the
streets.
After discussing the village indebted.
ness, water works prospects and other
miscellaneous business for awhile, Coun.
Gil adjourned until next Monday night.

Resuscitated.

A number of the members of the late.
ly disbanded Hillsboro Military Ba nd
met at the Clerk of Courts Office last
Wednesday night and succeeded in
effecting the organization of new band,
which is to retain the old name and
which is to put on great deal more sub
stantial foundation than the old band.
The great trouble with the former organ
ization was that it had become so large
as to be unwieldy and that the expense
was thus made greater than was war
ranted by the limited number of engage.
ments. The new band is composed of
thirteen men especially chosen and will
carry NO dead weight, as each one chosen
is thorough musician and a fine per-
former. -e
Immediately upon organization the
band adopted constitution and set of
bylaws and rules for its government
The discipline and business of the band
will be in the hands of Board of Gov.
ernors, consisting of Messrs. Maroney,
Doggett and Springer. Mr.. w. A.
Harman, who was unanimously chosen
Secretary and Treasurer, will also be a
member of this Board. Mr.. Chas. Rich.
ards was elected Bandmaster and will
devote considerable attention to the
work of training and developing the
musical talents of the men. His ability
in this direction is known and is q
recommendation for the band. Quite a
number of engagements are in sight and
on the lines the band has laid out for
itself we can not see why it should not
be prosperous. The men who signed the
constitution as charter members are :
Sell Springer, VIM. Maroney, Glen Rose
Bert Harwood, Carl Utman, Charles
CLANCY, Ellis Lyle, G. M. Wisecup, Bert
Lyle, Olph Doggett, Charles Richards,
Charles Lyle and John Wedding.

President Cleveland's recent utter.
ances on the subject of appointments, if
carried into practice by him, will very
effectually dispose OF two of the appli
cants for the Hillsboro postmastership.
1t is positively stated by his intimate
acquaint ,nces and advisers that the
President has announced his determine
ton neither to appoint any newspaper
men to office nor to re appoint any OF
those who held Office under him during
his pre- vious administration. If this is
true the chances of Judge Dittey and
Col. @. T. Pope for the position have
faded away, while it increases proper
tionately the hopes of j. B. Worley and
Auditor Trimble, who are identified
with neither of the classes which are to
be ignored.
