PANAMA, Feb. 4.-There has been s.
serious riot at Bogota which lasted for
two days. 1t is said that 100 men were

and Il mob of about 400 gathered about
the house Of Gutirrez, stoned the
building and broke the windows and
doors. The police demonstrated with
the rioters, but they we're driven away.
They returned with achievements,
and q collision occurred, in
which shots were exchanged. The
police were victor GUS Another fight
occurred later IN the day. and the
rioters were dispersed. Everything
was quiet the next morning, but at 3
O'Clock in the evening the workmen
gathered by thousands in San
V1ctorlano Square, and in the
public market. They overpoWered
the police, and for awhile were
in full possession of the city. NeWspa-
per officers were sacked and a general
assault was commenced on the police
barracks. The government called out
the military, and after aharp fight the
mob was dispersed. The capital is still
in state of siege, although it is official
ly announced that quiet has been re-
stored. A strict local press censorship
has been established.

Blow to Canadian SeaIers.

Capt. John G. Cox, president of
the Sealers' Association, recently
at Victoria, B. c., regarding the
Paris decision, said:
"The arbitration was merely for
the purpose of covering the desire
of England to find an excuse for
not protecting English rights.
The finding shows that the sealers
had these rights, but it takes them
away, so that England may in the
future say: "Td like to protect you,
my children, but the law is against
you"
"The wholesale restrictions won't
protect the seals when they most
need protection on the island, or
when they are trooping in March
and April. The finding of the
court will, however, kill the bust
ness for all save the Commercial
Company. Our ships are for sale
as soon as they return, and unless
the press reports have been very
misleading, the industry has had
its deathblow, and no schooners
will be sent out next season."

THE CONTROL OF d LETTER.
1T Belongs TO the Sender Until it
is Properly Delivered.

WASHINGTON, Cd. c., Aug. "a
The question as to the right of the
sender to control q letter until it is
delivered to the person addressed
has been raised by the judicial au-
thorities of California. The de-
partment has decided under the
latest regulations that the author of
a letter had entire control of it
until delivered, and that he or she
might order its delivery to one per-
son alone, or otherwise, at will.
The case was this: Nellie Hor-
ton, living in San Jose, wrote let
ter to Charles r. Hagan, in Oak
land, in July. 1t was addressed TO
him at his mothers house. She
stamped it for a special delivery,
and wrote on the envelope: do
not deliver to anyone except the
person addressed, and him in per-
SON." The postmaster at Oakland
made repeated efforts to deliver it
to the young man personally, re-
fusing to surrender it even into the
hands of a member of his family.
Failing in every attempt, he
followed the further instructions
given him and returned it to San
Jose. The girl afterward met Ha-
gan in San Francisco and shot
him. She claimed that she fired
in self-defense. The relatives of
Hagan commended that the letter
contained threats to kill and tried
to get possession of it. A legal
struggle ensued and the post office
department here was appealed to.
According to the decision the
letter will be returned to the girl,
and the contents will be sealed
book and the prosecution will be
jafaafed

ACCORDING to trade exchanges
the cities along Puget Sound will
make a strong bid for a portion of
the trade of Hawaii. The new
British Columbia steamship line
will allow strong competition in all
classes of merchandise from that
section of the Pacific coast. Con-
siderable business has already been
worked up, especially in lumber,
sash, doors, lime, etc. The resi-
dents of the Puget Sound cities are
energetic and wide awake, and
leave nothing undone in the matter
of trade extension. These islands
furnish the markets of Puget Sound
with a large amount of fruits, each
steamer leaving for British Column
bia carrying an increased tonnage
of such.

Liberator frauds to carry out plot
for the abduction of J. S. Balfour
who escaped to Argentine with
$7,OOO,OOO, his share of the booty.
Argentine refuses extradition and

is understood that the government
will not let the rascal go, no mat

IRA DE WITH HA WAII.
Enables Puget Sound Cities
to COmpefe.

The recent shipment Of a lot of
sash and doors from Tacoma to
Hawaii marks the beginning of
what in time promises to become an
important trade. This is the first
lot Of cedar inside material shipped
from Puget Sound to Hawaii, San
Francisco heretofore supplying this
trade, which amounts to about
$250,000 yearly. The shipment
was made via the British Columbia
and Hawaiian line, which was
started for the purpose Of compel
ing with the San Francisco line. 1t
is understood that the new line is
doing a good business, but there is
complaint already heard that it is
inclined to be arbitrary. 1t is said
that in its anxiety to pay divi-
dends the line is inclined to charge
more for such items as lime, etc,
than its San Francisco competitor
and that rates on sash and doors
may be advanced. If this be true
the new line will lose business and
the shippers may have to give up
the scheme Of introducing Puget
Sound products IN the Hawaiian
market. There is no doubt that
an excellent trade in lumber and
inside finish can be built up, and
the new line should foster it by
giving at least competitive freight
rates.
The New British Columbia
Hawaiian line of steamers has sue,
ceeded in introducing red cedar
sash doors in Hawaii. The inside
finish for a house was recently
rshipped by Wheeler, Osgood & Co.
of Tacoma, to Honolulu, and it is
said that several orders have been
lately placed for the same kind o
material. The new line is also
taking a good many shingles from
Vancouver to be used at Honolulu
in place of acknowledged SounC
Lumberman.

A poor woman was dispossessed
from her home in a New York tene-
ment a short time ago for being
three months in arrears for rent.
After her furniture had been piled
on the sidewalk well-dressed man
made his appearance, and upon
being told the story of distress
offered to pay four months rent for
the poor woman. The landlord
joyfully made out the receipts and
willing hands helped the woman to
return her effects to her rooms.
The landlord returned the generous
stranger $50 change out of a 800
bill, aud the latter made the poor
woman a gift of So. Subsequently
it was found that the 800 bill was
a counterfeit but the woman holds
her receipt and defies the landlord.

An exhibit worthy of Hawaii

An exhibit worthy of Hawaii
should be made at the proposed
midwinter fair in San Francisco.
Nothing would augment tourist
travel to these islands to a greater
extent. Besides this, a display
made of the numerous fruits in
digenous to this country, together
with what could be added from the
Bishop museum, would tend to
show the people of other countries
to what an extent Hawaii is capa-
BILE in the m after of production and
manufacture.
