from q wound received in sham battle
last Saturday The verdict is as follows:
I'VE find sham battle was ordered by
Gen. II. b. compson. commander Of the
brigade. who issued the order for the bat
tie in face Of protests made to him by
most Of the commissioned officers under
his command. who believed and stated to
Gen. Compson that it was in their opinion
unwise and dangerous to hold IT. We find
the wound was the result of criminal
csressssness on the part OF he man who
fired the shot We have failed 20 estab-
lish the identity of the man directly re-
sponsibls for firing the fatal shot"

TO BE SHAKEN Up.
a Committee Appointed to Make
investigations.

Some time ago G. B. Reynolds,
who had been a faithful and effici-
ent agent for the Board of Health
for number of years, resigned his
position without giving any par
ticular reason. His many friends
were surprised to hear of his
resignation, and for the time being
it was thought that the reduction
in his salary was the cause of his
leaving the employ of the Govern
ment.
Mr.. Reynolds was very reticent
about the matter, and declined to
talk about it. 1t has since leaked
out that his resignation was not en-
tirely due to the cut in the salary,
but that things in the Health
Office were not above suspicion
and he quit work rather than be
implicated in any shady transac-
tions.
Ugly runbrs were afoat to the
effect that a certain business man
who had contracts for supplies had
a habit of sending short weight and
measure, which Mr.. Reynolds was
supposed to receipt for. This he
declined to do, and his resignation
followed.
The scandal about the affair has
reached the ears of the Advisory
Council, and yesterday committee
was appointed to make thorough
investigation and report as soon as

WITH AUTHORITY
PROCL A M ALTON.

In the past the people Of
Honolulu have been under
heavy burdens, because of the
high and uncalled for prices
charged for staple articles; the
protests of the community
passed unheeded, and all eff
forts to produce a better state
of affairs failed. In conse-
quence the people were dis
tressed beyond measure. 1t is
evident that some move should
be made to equalize matters,
and give the community a
share Of the profits heretofore
enjoyed by those who have
been instrumental in keeping
prices at high water mark.
Now, therefore /, M. S.
LEVY. in behalf Of the public,
hereby announce that [ have
established a store at rs Fort
street for the convenience of
all; and it is hereby pro-
claimed:
ALL HIGH prices are hereby
abolished.

this movement are requested
to call at once and enroll

FUTURE CONTROL OF THE SOUTHERN
PACIFIC OF KENTUCKY.

1t certainly cannot be disputed that
the people OF California and of the Pa
cifc coast generally are greatly
interested in the personnel OF the
men who will be apt to control
the railways which comprise the
Southern Pacific of Kentucky-a phrase
which embraces the Central Pacific, the
Southern Pacific and their affiliated
branches, covering a vast expanse of
territory. The death of Stanford has
thrown the Huntington interest in this
colossal property into great prominence.
Mr.. G. P. Huntington, in addition to
being a consummate railway manipu-
lator, shows signs of great longevity.
Though quite advanced in ysars,
it would surprise no one, go
thoroughly we'll preserved is he
in physique, were ne to live
indefinitely, and to have quite decade
Of active business life before him. In
connection with his robust personality,
it is quite apparent that he is training
his nephew, Mr.. II. f. Huntington, to
take his place in the system of the
Southern Pacific railway-of Kentucky,
whether the date shall be near or remote
when that gentleman shall be called
upon to assume these responsible
functions. In view Of the fact that
they may ultimately devolve upon
him, it is pleasant to know that the
younger Huntington is credited with
being a man OF great executive ability,
as we'll as modest and agreeable per-
son. This is the story that comes to us
about him from all the Southern Pacific
officials and the patrons OF that company
who have had dealings with him.
This is the more agreeable from the
fact that Mr.. @. P. Huntington has a
contract in his possession by which he
controls the Ssaries- Hopkins interest in
the Southern Pacific railway for nearly
five years to come. A great many people

Our Republican brethren have been
cheered if not consoled by the advent
amongst them of Editor j. S. Clarkson.
This fervid gentleman ia one of those
trusting individuals who do not realize,
even with Iowa in the hands of the
Democrats, that the Republican party is
dead. In fact. great many aagacious
people who have heretofore been Repub-
licans not only think it is dead but
buried beyond hope of resurrection.
The only gigantic statesman it seems to
possess just now is Benny Harrison,
and both Editors Clarkson and Otis are
dead 'forninst" him. 1t is hard
plight for the grand old party to be in.
but that seems to be about the long and
the short of the matter.

The San Francisco paper which 30
confidently announced that Governor
Markham w0dld nominate Irwin c..
Stump to the vacancy in the United
States senate grossly deceived its read
ers. Ex-Governor George Clement Per-
kins has received the prize. This is a
most excellent nomination, and will
be hailed by the whole state as the
best selection that could have
been made from amongst the
names of Northern Californians in the
list of possible candidates. Governor
Perkins has very enviable public rec
ord. He is man OF clear judgment. OF
Hne abilities and of the highest char
scter. As the chief magistrate of this
state for the first three years after the
adoption of the new constitution, be
rave the most complete satisfaction.
His senatorial career may not be bril-
liant one, but it will be characterized by
integrity, high principle and distin'
Euished ability. We congratulate Gov
prnor Markham upon his excellent
lhoice.
