An ADVERTISER reporter, called
on Minister Blount yesterday morn
ing after the arrival of the bark
Andrew Welch to make inquiries
concerning his successor.
The minister appeared to be
much pleased at the news that his
successor had been appointed, and
although he had himself received
no official information on the SUBJ
ject, seemed disposed to regard the
newspaper dispatch as correct.
He said that he did not know
Judge Sneed, except by reputation
as a jurist, and could therefore
make no comment on his appoint
ment.
When asked when he expected
the new minister to arrive, Mr..
Blount said, az do not think it
likely he will arrive Thursday on
the Alameda, for in order to sail on
that ship he would have to make
very hurried preparations for de-
parture. He will probably come
on the Australia which is due here
July II, and in that event [ shall
try to sail for the United States,
July 18th.
"The new minister will undoubt-
eddy wish to consult with me for a
few days after his arrival on the
condition of affairs here, but if he
comes on the Australia there will
be plenty of time for that"
When asked if he would take his
final report home with him or mail
it Mr.. Blount said he did not know,
but intimated that he would not
trust it to the mails.
Mrs. Blount was more pleased
than her husband when she heard
the news. She has had a delight
full visit here, and the ladies of Ho-
nolulu have exerted themselves to
make her visit a pleasant one. But
Notwithstanding this for some time
she has been anxious to get back
to her home and her children.

PAPA NoRDHOFF'S DEPARTURE.

There is something pleasantly
unique in the method used by our
esteemed royalist contemporary in
its vigorous defense of Papa Nord-
Hoff and his rather sudden and
lamented departure. There is some
thing almost pathetic in the ancient
and musty dispatch quoted with
the venerable date of 1888, to show
that the New York Herald did not
recall Papa Nordhoff in 1898. 1t is
just possible the Bulletin ante
dated Mr.. Benefits dispatch to
Papa Nordhof to draw the public
attention to its capacity for blum
dering; and it is also possible that
Papa Ncrdhof left that dispatch
with our gullible contemporary to
hide the real cause of his unex-
pected departure, which was not on
account of the arrival of the dis
patch in question.
The ADVERTISER, with its usual
magnanimity, endeavored to let
Papa Nordhof's departure down
easy, merely saying he was re-
called; but as this was seemingly
misunderstood, it was pointed out
very politely, and discreetly we
thought, that he received a re
quest or an 'intimation to depart,
from a source which he immedi-
ately obeyed." IF our esteemed
contemporary will do little judi
cious interviewing on certain points
connected with Papa Nordhoff s
departure it will quite likely find
itself in possession of several facts
which it VIII not care to publish at
zone fell swoop."

determination was strongly backed
by the pilot, who was unwilling to
assume the responsibility of taking
out such large ship at midnight,
when she was ready and should go
out before. Both officers held
heavy responsibilities-the one as
the agent of a great trust placed in
his hands, with this injunction {:
"Take no chances )" the other as
the guardian of the good name of
the port, on an occasion of special
interest, for, had any trihing mis-
hap occurred at a midnight hour,
it could not have been remedied as
readily as by daylight. No, both
Captain Seabury and Pilot Shep-
herd did right in refusing the
childish request to detain the
steamer China six hours made by
private persons.

DISASTER IN THE ORIENT.
Nine Hundred Houses Burned
Ten Persons Murdered
Other Casualties.

VICTORIA, (B. c., June lad
vices from Japan by the Empress of
Japan, which arrived last night from
the Orient, state that a destructive
fire occurred at Araicho, in the mid
die of Kubiki district, on the 18th I'LL
timo, consuming 900 houses, police
station, a postoffice and the Town
office.
During the night of the 25th ultimo
three men and seven women were
murdered in house at Akasaka Mu-
ra, in the Ishikawa district of Kawa-
chi province. The murderer has been
arrested.
a sailing vessel which left the port
of Shimoda on the Goth ultimO for Ia
dotshu, in Shanshu province, was
caught in a severe tempest during the
same night, when about ten miles off
Onma Point, Enshu province. She
was completely wrecked and the whole
of her crew of twelve Japanese were
drowned, with the exception of the
pilot. The pilot is said to have been
in the water for over ten hours, keep
ing himself afioat by the aid Of a piece
of wood.
The Government has just carried
out the important financial operation
of redeeming 100000 yen worth of
6 per cent. public loan funds. 1t is
semi officially announced that the re-
manning portion of the per cent.
debt, namely, 5000, 900 yen, will be
redeemed in October next.
The expedition of Lieutenant Dunji
to the Kurile islands has come to
tragic end. About the last of March
the Lieutenant, with party of thirty
men, set out in small boats from To-
kio to the inhospitable Kuriles to
form settlement.
Such a long voyage northward in
boats so small, invested the expedi-
ton with peculiar hazard and inter-
est. The Emperor contributed to the
aid of the enterprise and the people
regarded it with enthusiasm, as the
band of men We're of tried military
capacity. But the EXPEDITION came
to sudden end, two of the boats with
seventeen men, being lost in II storm.

Totals. ...........S 81, 16,

IL will be seen that the exports this
year have shown a comparative de-
crease in each month with the eXcep-
ton of May. In the past month there
was gain of $40, $50 as compared with
the same month of 1892. OF late there
has been considerable activity in the
Hawaiian trade, and while the eX-
ports for the past five months were
$40, SOS less than for the corresponding
time last year this apparent loss is
due mainly, if not wholly, to lower
prices in this market. If thorough
analysis of our commerce with the
islands were made it would undoubt-
eddy be found that, considering the
number of vessels employed, freights,
commissions, profits on shipments,
ETC., the record for this year has
many features of encouragement. The
gain of nearly $4,000 for the past
month is good evidence of a partial
recovery from the depression hitherto
existing in trade circles at the islands.
1t certainly shows a return of conf
dence and belief in the future of the
Hawaiian Islands as regards our poll
teal and business relations with them
under the present or prospective adj
ministration of affairs THERE'S. F.

June Eli 1898.

Persons interested in
ranches will be glad to learn
that their interests have been
looked after by a man with a
brain expansive enough to
contemplate all the annoy
ances of poor fencing and
devise a way to reduce the
cost of building a good one.
We have secured the sole
agency for a locked fence"
which efectualIy resists the
attacks of cattle and brings
the cost to less than the con-
ventional wire fence.
We have not called your
attention to it before, because
we have not yet had enough
of the fence to supply the
demands of people who have
heard it talked of by the few
we have shown samples to.
The Makee Sugar Co., at
Kealia uses it and Mr.. VIM.
Blaisdell, the manager says:
ut is the most economical
fence | have seen on the
islands anywhere and it will
stand every test in regard to
durability better than any OF
them.
1--WE build no other fence
now and have miles of it in
use. l cheerfully recommend
it to all wishing a fence that
will challenge any other for
cheapness and strength.
1T is especially adapted for
ranch fencing where trans
portation is expensive and
difficult. Not more than one
half the number of posts are
required as in ordinary wire
fences"
If only in the matter of
posts there is economy 1T is
enough to recommend it to
any one as posts are an ex-
pensive item in fence building.
Another saving is in time
required. The locked fence
can be built quicker than any
other.
We will be pleased to show
samples or supply parties with
full information on the
subject.

THE PILOTS WERE RIGHT.

The opening of the harbor for
the entry of the largest merchant
steamers plying in this ocean is
having its natural result in attract
ing them hither. These vessels
are entrusted to masters of first
class ability whose judgment is
relied on to do the best for the in
terest of the owners and under
writer's that circumstances will
permit. While no instructions can
be laid down, there is one rule that
applies alike to all mail and pas
senger steamers touching at way
ports-"as soon as the ships bus
mess is done, proceed on the voy-

The shipmaster who understands
his duties, and has the courage to
execute them, will never allow any
persuasions from ship or shore to
swerve him from his line of duty,

ported here tonight that President
Cleveland has decided upon a sue

has many admirers in Washing
ton. He is a warm friend of the
President, and his appointment
will give satisfaction here.

ported tonight that telegram was
received this afternoon by Judge t.
1t. Sneed from Secretary Gresham
stating that the president had de-
cided to appoint him minister to
the Hawaiian Islands to relieve
special envoy Blount. The APP
pointment will probably be Off
cially announced tomorrow. Judge
Sneed is one of the ablest lawyers
Of the Tennessee bar, having for
many years been member of the
supreme court, he enjoying lucra-
tive law practice before the State
and the United States supreme
court, and is regarded as one Of the

The other day there came into
port the magnificent steamship
China, the finest and largest speci-
men of the modern floating palace
that has visited these islands. She
arrived early in the morning, and
Captain Seabury was only too
eager to crafty a wish long enter
tanned of bringing his noble ship
into port. She was visited, inspect
ed and admired by hundreds. At
the hour fixed when she arrived,
having discharged her freight and
passengers, and given her through
tourists fully ten hours to visit all
points of interest in the city, she
started on her voyage again, the
music of the Hawaiian band still
waited in pleasant strains as she
passed beyond the bar into the
open sea.
