Strength of the Provisional Govern

ment- SpreckeIs' Attitude.
Colonel c. L. Macarthur. editor of the
Budget of Troy, \. y, arrived on the Aus
trala from Honolulu yesterday. In an in
terview with CALL reporter, Colonel Mac
arthur expressed himself as delighted with
the country he had just left after a two
months sojOurn there, and as strongly in
favor of annexation for the islands.
This delay is hurting the tradesmen in
the Islands very much" said Colonel Mac
arthur, 'and l am sorry to see it. am
afraid there will be good many failures in
the islands before this crisis is passed. The
Provisional Government is in a strong
financial position today and is able to hold
its own against any power likely to stepin.
except the United States, which viii never
be an aggressive power in that quarter.
"Claus Spreckels is the creditor of the
old Government TO the amount of 500. 600.
but he is not pressing that claim, and has
even made offers of assistance to the Pre-
visional Government. The Government
however, has not found it necessary t.
accept them, having already all the financial
backing it needs, and Mr.. SpreckelS has
signed the memorial Of the planters to
Blonnt. asking for annexation.
"Soon after his arrival Mr.. Spreckels

influence 10 persuade the meeting to recom-.
mend an independent republican form of
government for the islands, hut ON taking a
vote on the ques lion il WAS: found that
majority o.. those present favored annexa-
tfop. Baldwin Of Kauai took the ground,
which was loudly approved by the planters,
that they would rather sacrifice something
tian to. oppose annexation. In fact the
sehtimehf dinong them is that even at the
eXpensetQg. losing their contract labor they
would ra.Gler have annexation than not.
There is no doubt but that the planters
can obtain ali labor they need under free
labor system. The Japanese Government is
already sending men to the Islands who are
not under contract, and have in view the
establishment ef an agency at Honolulu
The planters might haye:tO pay more under
such a system, but they would get better
work. -.
IA good deal of speculation has been rife
over this trip of Paul Neumann's to the
coast. Ii is rumored that he goes from here
TO Japan, and report at the Islands was tnat
his mission was to sell out the country to
Japan. OF course this is absurd. The fact
is Neumann has broken with the Queen and
no longer holds her power of attorney. He
was at one time attorney for the japanese
Government in. certain contract-labur mat
ters, and claims that the Government still
owes him certain sums for his services.
His erraud to Japan, if lie goes there, will
be to collect this money.
"The islands ought 10 be annexed. 1 think
they will be, but they are financially in q
| position TO be able to wait if annexation
| does not come Immediately"

RIVERSIDE COUNTY.
Its Formation indorsed by Large
Majority of the Residents.

RIVERSIDE, May 3-Entire returns from
the election precincts in Riverside County
give n vote or 21S7 in favor of aud 49S
against the formation of Riverside County.
The straight Non-Partisan ticket was
elected. Riverside secured the county seat
with only 1874 opposing votes. The only
trouble Of the election was in El Casco Pre-
cinct. A mob took charge of the polls and
carried the precinct against the county.
Trouble was narrowly averted. The County
Commissioners will probably throw FL
Casco Precinct out as illegal.

STOCKS IN A WEiIRL.
There Were Such Heavy Sales That 1t
Looked Like a Panic.

New York, May 3.-This was day of
great excitement and depression in the
Stock Exchange. Sales reached the large
total Of 5S6,651 shares, liquidatiOns having
been on more extensive scale than for
long time. There was nothing in the way
Of news TO affect prices adversely. and tie
heavy selling is attributable almost entirely
to the exhaustion of margins and the un-
certainty created by the rumoTs in circula-
ton affecting the credit Of corporations and
individuals. The only failure reported was
that of A II. Wholer, and that was of little
consequence; but the bears. taking advan-
tage of the general Generalization, started
stories about the alleged embarrassment Of
leading operators and banks.
The most diligent search after the close
of the exchange failed to corroborate these
stories of impending trouble. There is no
doubt, however, that many loans on indus
trials were called in and that some firms
were forced to SELL Rallies in the market
were frequent, but counted for little, each
and every recovery starting the selling
movement afresh.
The depression was most marked after
delivery hour, 2:15 p. NJ, when there was
absolutely no support. The market was
then in a semi-panicky condition, and the
