points. readily reached by large ships. it
has depth of leo feet, seven fathoms from
the mainland.
The Great Eastern, were she still afoat,
could come into Hilo harbor and turn
around close in shore, off Cocoanut Island.
A few feet away. in the mouth of the
Waiakea River, magnificent and easily ac-
cessiole docks could be constructed. With

Government of Great Britain long since
had surveys and charts made Of this harbor,
and the largest ships in the English navy
are able to enter the bay and anchor up close
to Cocoanut Island. while American ships,
less familiar with the ground. are forced to
anchor some distance further out. The
British know well the value not merely of
Hilo Bay. but of the island of Hawaii, as
compared with the rest Of the area of the
little kingdom. Could she do so, Great
Britain. 1t Is said, would be very we'll con-
tent to let the United States take the other
seven Islands and take Hawaii for her

OF these sight only the first four are of
any value for growing coffee and sugar.
Some coffee might be grown on Molokai,
but the presence of the leper settlement
kills all enterprises of that nature, and the
other three islands ale practically worthless.
Hawaii, therefore, has nearly double the
area OF the rest of the entire kingdom, and
more than double the three other produc-
tive islands. Moreover, the fine harbor of
this very valuable region is 200 miles nearer
San francisco than the harbor of Honolulu,
with no bar TO be removed or reefs to be
blasted. No expensive "harbor improve
ments" are required TO make it available. A
breakwater would have to be built, and
practically inexhaustible supply of stone is
lying close al hand ready for such use. Then
within easy distance of the present water
front wharves could be constructed at which
the largest steamships afloat might
dock and lie in safety. On the
east side of the harbOr, perhaps mile from

CLEVELAND's HEALTH.
Grover Is Gaining Strength and
Vigor


WASHINGTON, Aug. 23.-"There is nc
truth whatever in the report that the
president is suffering from some organic
disease" said Private Secretary Thur
Der this evening.
"When he left Washington it was UNI
der the advice of those vino take great
personal interest in his welfare, simply
because he wanted the recuperation
which his arduOus duties OF the past
SIX months had made necessary, and to
fit him to again assume the eXacting
cares of his official position"
Mr.. Thurber added that the rest the
president needs is simply what any
man, however vigorous, most require
when overtaXed. Mr.. Thurber received
letter yesterday from the president in
which he stated that he was rapidly
gaining strength and vigor.
Assistant Secretary Hamlin, who mas
just returned from Il visit to the preSi-
dent at BuzZard'S Bay, told reporter
that he looked well, very well indeed,
and gave no indication of being ill.,
The presidents return to Washington
about Sept. will effectually dispose Of
all rumor as to his health.
Secretary Lamont, who was also quite
recently in the presidents society, said:
"These stories are absolutely baseless.
The president is as sound as any one,
but like everybody else. he needs rest
occasionally. His physicians have said
that he has no organic trouble of any
kind.

Der of the switchmen'S union saws that
the strike has already been agreed
upon, and will include conductors, en-
gIneers, firemen, brakemen and SWITCH

Iowa Member ofthe Coinage COM

WASHINGTON, Aug. %. The coinage
committee is pretty closely divided be-
tween the hard money men and the adj
vocates OF free coinage. MIR. Hager OF
Iowa, and Judge kilgore, of Texas. will

two votes would give majority Of one

deal OF curiosity this morning at the

member from state where opinion on
the coinage question IS divided The
opinions OF the old members of the COM
mittee are pretty we'll known from their
action i'll the last congress. or the local
lties which they represent.
Mr.. Hager was perfectly frank in ex-
pressing his views. lie said: 81 shall

propositions which are now before the
house. and | shall not vote for uncon-.
ditional repeal Of the Sherman law. I
am in favor of the wide use of silver by

ratio. do not think, however, that the

ON Silver.
Special to the Globe.


Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 23. - Congress
man Hall, of the Third district, deliv-
cred an able speech i'll behalf of uncon-
ditional repeal this evening. The fact
that he was TO speak became known
during the day, and he had the encOur-
agement of packed galleries and
larger attendance than usual After
paying his regards to Grosvenor, of
Ohio, and Hepburn, Of Iowa, who have
endeavored TO throw the blame for the
present condition OF the country upon
fear of tariff revision, Mr.. Hall took up
the question and in mastery manner
described the workings of the Sherman
act. He declared that the question is
not whether we shall have free coinage
of silver, for that is impossible, but
whether we shall issue bonds and pur
chase gold with which to maintain the
parity of the two metals, He declared
his faith in bimetailism, that he be-
lieved in the use of both gold and silver
as money, but that it is impossible TO
have Two standards of value. The low
rates at which money can be had in
Europe he showed to be due to the fact
that the leaders had confidence of
securing the payment of as good
money as they loaned. Furnish
proof that we will do the same thing in
this country, and there will be all
abundance of cheap money at once of
good, not debased, money at low rates
of interest. In the present conflict, Mr..
Hall declared, the country is brought
face TO face with the problem whether
we shall continue as we have since 1879
upon gold basis, or whether we shall
MeXicanize our currency and sink to
silver basis. On gold basis bimetailism
can DE maintained; silver can be pro-
duced as part of our money. On sill
yer basis we drive gold out of the coun-
try. The Third district member had the
attention of the house and the large
audience, ana was literally applauded
when he concluded.
