path in the Park-The Equine In
telligence of ModoC Tom.

The crowd at the Park yesterday was
unusually large and particularly orderly.
During the afternoon there were only two
unusual incidents near the band-stand and
they caused only temporary excitement.
An old man sitting on front bench was
so carried away by q melody that he
tainted. to the CONSERVATION of his wife,
and did not recover consciousness until he
was carried away from the crowd and laid
on the grass. A few minutes later two ladies
backed their dog-cart into a neighboring
buggy, smashing one of the frail wheels of
the latter vehicle. Tie horses plunged a
little, but no one was hurt and the clash
ing drivers agreed to settle the dispute for
damages to-day.
Attorney III. w. Philbronk is veteran
bicycle rider and one of coterie who have
always maintained a VIII eslman's right to
paths and sidewalks. To make test case
he persisted in riding down TO otpath
yesterday, under tbs very nose OF a repre-
sentative Of the law WEARING gray clothes
and brass buttons. Philbrook refused to
deSist and insisted that he should be ar
rested. The policeman accommodated the
attorney and the latter was booked for
violating the park ordinance relating to
Olcycle rlQlng.

Captain Thomson offered to lend Phil

declined the loan. and was allowed to

Captain Thomson is very proud of the
intelligence of his handsome bay thor

been long accustomed tn carry his rider

band-stand. The officers chief duty is to
prevent pedestrians from entering Tie

and walked back twenty yards to attend
to something requiring his attention. and
while he was absent man attempted to
walk past Modoc Tom among the car
riages. The horse shook his head at the
Intruder, pushed him with his nose and in
timated plainly that the man must retreat.
The fellow persisted, however. until the
horse, with an air Of discipline, turned
around and kicked at the pedestrian,
slowly backing him away from the circle.

BOOMING THE FAIR.
Foreign Consuls Respond to the Call
for Aid.

Yesterday Was quiet day at the head
quarters of the Midwinter Fair. A few Of
the clerks put in an appearance and sat
around for time, but no business OF im-
pOrtance was transacted.
An encouraging indication of the inter-
est which is being manifested is found in
the fact that the letter sent out by the
director-general to the various foreign
Consuls is meeting with an immediate re-
Spouse. AT a late hour last evening CON-

AS the prices of apricots have been so
low, every body started the season by dry
ing. But on account of the trouble to
obtain money for running expenses, large
quantities have been shipped into the
markets to obtain ready money, so prob
ably not more than half the crop will lie
dried after all.
The question of labor has caused less
trouble this season than ever before. NJ.
Fiore brings nearly all his labor from San
Jose, and as school has not yet opened,
the boys, and many of the girls, have
helped to handle large part of the fruit
so far.
There is a large crop of walnuts this

There are about twenty-five commuters
from Niles to Oakland and San Francisco
since the issuing of the new form of
ticket-books by the new Oakland ferry
They are wondering why it is not poSs ble
to issue the same style Of tickets for use
on the regular line. A monthly ticket
costs IS 30 and is used about twenty-five
times. Why couldn't a book of thirty
rides be issued for the same price; with
out the slightest doubt the railroad would
more than make the difference each month
and the saving to regular purchasers would
be considerable.
Several improvements are going on in
town. Mr.. Houliban is having a very

When Stiles Hall was. on its dedica-

something more than couple of thousand
dollars In excess of the original gift for

tary Harry Hillard states that gift OF
Saturday last of $50 from Miller Lux

all students, who will find 1t pleasant
retreat In their first days of college life.

Following upon the several arrests made

Correspondence OF the Associated Press.
Honolulu, Aug. 16 (per steamer via
San Francisco, Aug. 22.-The situation
here remains virtually the same. There
is much speculation as to the contents OF
Minister Blount's report, and the news
of the interference OF Japan in Hawaiian
affairs having leaked out, there is more
or less speculation on the streets regard
ing the matter.
A criminal libel suit has been brought
by Captain Furgason of the steamer
Monserrat against Arthur Johnson, edit
or of the Pacific Commercial-Advertiser,
for exposing scheme he and Paul Neu-
man were alleged. to have in hand for re-
cruiting Japanese labor, in Hawaii for
the coffee plantations in Guatemala.
Consul General Fujii OF Japan has

ernment for suffrage for Japanese immi-
grants in Hawaii.
President Dole is indisposed from over
work.
The financial condition OF the country
continues to improve, and there is q
steady sale of bonds at par.
1t is believed here that Minister
Blount has reported in favor of pro-
tectorate over Hawaii. This belief has
seemingly come from official circles, and
although nothing definite is known,
there are grounds for the theory that
Minister Blount outlined the policy of
the United States in Hawaii when he
took his stand in the late Japanese in
reference. The provisional govern
ment has decided to proceed no further
in the Japanese matter until the pend
ing question of the continuance OF Amer
ican interests and influence here ia set

THE FARMERS CONGRESS.
Prominent Populists Discuss the Finsn-

cial Question.
MOUNT GRETNA, Pa, Aug. 22.-Addi-
tional crowds arrived today to attend
the national encampment of the Farm
ers' Alliance. Governor Patterson OF
Pennsylvania, who came to inspect the
national guard rifle practice, mingled
with the farmers and visited the various
exhibits.
Ben Terrell of Texas, lecturer of the
alliance, made an address this afternoon,
advocating limited ownership OF land
and government control of telegraph and
transportation lines. There is but one
hope for the people of the nation, he
said; they must destroy every vestige
of paternaliem in 1t. Money should be
just as good made OF paper as
of gold. The value of a dollar should be
regulated entirely by supply and de-
mand. The ideal money system is the
demonstration of gold and silver. The
true science of money demands that it
should be made of any article that has
no value, such as paper, as money that
will pass in any country will rob us OF
our circulation. The Farmers Alliance,
in standing up for the demonetization OF
gold and silver, is striking at the root Of
the question.
@. A. Powers of Indiana made an ar
gument in favor of unlimited silver
coinage.
Ignatius Donnelly, who was on the
programme, failed to appear today.
