The Maine legislature las rejected
a bill establishing woman suffrage.
The Minnesota Senate has passed a
bill confirming the right to vote at all
state, county and municipal elections
upon all women q years of age or
over. Both houses of the Kansas
legislature passed a bill, we under
stand, giving full suffrage to rome
who have possessed municipal sui
fragc in that state for several years
but we have not noted whether it be-
came a law. Evidently the female
suffrage movement is passing onward.

stands well back from the road. There
are rumors that
SauaraI STRANGERS We're Noticed

stands well back from the road. There
are rumors that
Several Strangers Were Noticed
about the place the previous day, just as
there was suspicious team or two no
ticed the night before the post office was
entered.
SIS there clue?" was asked many
times yesterday, and one bright young
man thought that one point had been
settled, the burglars liked good cigar.
There are SO many others who quite
clue won't amount to much. The bur-
glars seemed to believe also in what
Colonel Ingersoll calls the gospel of
good living" The only thing really set
tied is that they were the coolest bur-
glars ever heard of in this section of the
state. They carried off silver enough to
make them about $500 the richer, that is
if they could sell it IN its present, or at
least its form of Monday, for. as Chief Ber
ry said last night, sit is probably melted
before this 1t is due to Chief Berry
to say that he gave his best
efforts to the case, but whether the bur
glary was the work of an expert profess
sional, or expert professionals, there is
very little hope that any clue of special
importance will be struck. If hard work
will do it then Chief Berry will locate
his party or parties. The Portland po-
lice are just as much in the dark as
Chief Berry, but it is needless to say
that every effort will be made to find the
scamps.
In this connection it may be said that
experience is a good teacher. Sir Wal
ter Scott, when young man defended a
burglar who, having no money for his
attorney, gave him some good avice. He
said that rusty lock, and little cur
dog, one of the sort that can be no more
located with any degree of certain
ty than silver Congressman from the
West, will scare off burglar every
time.
III may De auueu tHdG low HlouoHs
ago house close by that of MI. Rick
er, was visited by burglars who secured
and tied up a large amount of plate,
but were frightened, and left as sudden
ly as eastern capital did Denver after
the Governor of colorado made his
speech. The case was reported to Chief
Berry who tried hard to run the party
down, but without success.

SAMUEL THuRsToN MISSING.
He Was Last Seen in New Hampshire and
Thought To Be Deranged.

Mr.. Samuel Thurston, the well known
musician and piano dealer, of this city,
is missing. He was last seen near Berlin
N. H. He was visiting his sister, Mrs.
Richardson, in Gilead, and left there
Tuesday for Gorham, IN. H., intending
to return to Portland the following day.
1t has since been learned that he was
driven to Berlin by stable keeper
named Chandler, who left Mr.. Thurston
at the Alpine Cascade, apoint of interest.
1t is feared that Mr.. Thurston is mental
ly deranged. He is about 10 years of
age, has full white beard, and presents
a very striking personal appearance.
Any information concerning him will be
gladly received by his family. Address
communications to Mrs. Samuel Thurs
ton, SO Monument street.

CAPTAIN JORDAN is THANKFUL.
He weathered the storm Saturday ana Il
Alive and Well.


Captain Morris Jordan was az CONNER
cial wharf yesterday, alive ana weli' ana
thankful that he was both. If any man
ever had close call, then ne oid' oa0-
urday, Captain Jordan was OUT IN one OF
the sloops of j. W. Trefethen hshing.
He did not notice the coming OF the sud-
den storm, in fact outside there were
few signs of it's coming until it was upon
him. Then he had all he could do to
keep af1oat. He was more IN the water
than out. Whatever it might have been
on land, at sea it was tempest. The
darkness closely resembled night. The
sea was in an instant changed from calm
ness to storm, and his little craft was
fearfully tossed about. Captain Jordan
is good sailor, but that was something
he had never witnessed before. He
thought he should be forced to cut away
his mast, but he was determined not to
do it unless it was plainly matter OF
life or death. He lost his rudder. and
was simply driven before the wind while
it lasted, and it was well for him that it
did not last long, and passed as abruptly
as it came. Then Captain Jordan rugged
temporary rudder and made his way
back to port as best he could. All Gay
yeste rday the fishermen were looking at
the sloop and the rudder that he invent
ed, but as man from the Cape observed
won't patent b'gosh.'

SITUATION IN MAINE.
People Here Have Scarcely Felt Any
Money Stringency.

Hon, Fred E. Richards says concern
ing the financial situation: Except
from reading the newspapers the people
of Maine, up to within few weeks,
would hardly have realized that there
was any stringency in the money market.
The recent closing of several large mills
in Maine temporarily and the consequent
suspension of the pay rolls will have an
effect on trade in the respective COM
munities. But collections are fairly
good, people are making about the
usual amounts of deposits and local
obligations are being met with fair
promptness. We ueed money in Amer
ica. It Congress will repeal the Sher-
man act and thereby establish the con-
fidencs Of European investors that their
coupons and interest will not be paid in
sixty-oent dollars, money now awaiting
investment in Europe will flow into this
country in abundance

Chief Engineer Ball visited Peaks

where the fire recently burned so persis-

what appeared to him might have been
an attempt to start the fire anew. At
one point there was a lot of paper and
brush which looked as if preparations
had been made to start q fire. During
the time that the fire was burning last
week several persons who watched it
suspected that the fire was set. AS
yet, however, there is no direct evidence
that such was the case.

Of a narrow white braid
may be had for $4.75

tempt into which the administration
is likely to fall. 1t will be said that
the Hawaiian policy OF President
Cleveland was formed before March
18th, and before he had selected his
Cabinet.
The fact Of record is, that the treaty
of annexation was withdrawn from
the Senate the day after President
Cleveland had taken the oath OF Office
and before his Cabinet had reached
Washington, il not before its mem
bers had been nominated and con-
firmed.
There are indications that evidence
Is not wanting to show that jobbery,
which has determined so many acts of
the Democratic party leaders, con-
trOlled the movements which result
ed in Cleveland's Hawaiian policy.
Certain it is that the most notorious
jobbers who have had anything TO do
with the Hawaiian islands are those
who are foremost in support of Cleve-
lands policy, and are also those who
have been prominent as Mr.. Cleve-
lands advisers in this matter.

How often it has been said by
the croakers that there is no
business, everything is dead,
times are hard, and everything
is going to the bad here in
Honolulu, but the Cali
fornia Feed Co. are not built
that way; we. say business is
good and getting better every
month. And to prove what we
say we have had to take larger
and more commodious ware
houses. We have just COM
pleted arrangements with Mr..
J. F. Colburn, whereby he
gives up his old stand, corner
Queen and Nuuanu streets.
We take possession on Novem-
Der 18th. Our old place at Leleo
is too small for our fast increas-
ing business, hence the change.
We expect the Hawaiian
bark Mauna Ala to arrive
here again in few days
with her fourth full cargo
of hay and grain bought
by our Mr.. j. n. Wright who
Will arrive on the bark. We
prefer to select our merchan-
disc ourselves rather than have
others do it, which means
that we get better goods at a
less price.
We thank our many friends
for their liberal patronage for
the past three years, and hope
by strict attention to a bust
ness we thoroughly understand
to merit the patronage OF as
many more.
We intend to keep large,
well selected stock of the
very best hay and grain to be
had in the California market,
and we are going to sellit.

HOW WASHINGTON LOCKS AT
PA AM0UNT'S" ALLEGED
TESTIMONY.
A Few Facts About the CommIssioner,s
ROyalists To swallow.

CHICAGO, November 19.-The Inter
oceans Washington special says: The
presses OF the government printing
slice were running all last night and
all today with vigor which seems to
have been directed by chagrin. The
PRESIDENT is not an alert man intellec-
tually, but he seems to have been at
last aroused to a consciousness of the
wi1. that his policy in Hawaii has met
I'm the almost universal denuncia-
~.on OF the American people, and that
~ Is important that something should
be done to stem the rapidly rising tide
or indignation, If the United States is
10 escape being made the subject of
the Jlbes and jeers of the nations.
There have been two features in the
Hawaiian policy of the administra-
tlon which have excited the indigna-
tion OF the American people, and the
PRESIDENT is understood to have been
amazed that such should be the case
First, the character of the dissolute
deposed queen; second, the sneers
which the representatives of the adj
,m1nistration have directed toward the
missionary work and the missionary
civilization of the Hawaiian islands.
Inc moral sensi5ilities of the repre-
<B9btatfves OF the administration seem
to have been greatly blunted, and
they appear to have lamentably
misconceived the spirit of the Ameri-
can people. 1t has been the habit of
some eminent leaders of the Democ-
racy to sneer at the higher law and to
mock ut the Christian religion and
civilization, but it has been left for
the representatives of Cleveland's ad
ministration to found a policy upon
the assumption that it is the duty OF
the United States to elevate an ignor-
ant, debased and barbarous race above
the best representative of modern pro-
gress and of Christian civilization.
That is what President Cleveland pro-
poses to do in the Hawaiian islands,
and he is said to be astOunded to dis
cover that his policy is not popular
with the American people.
Mr.. Blounts report, as summar-
lied by the State Department for
publication covers thirty-six octave
