NATHAN MEN IN CONFERENCE.
Ticket in Opposition to Regular
Republicans to Be Named,
They Will Hold on, However, Until
After the State Convention.

Alderman Thomas, Arnold II. Wagner
and Ems Nathan. who compos the
head OF the Notwithstanding Repub-
leans OF Kings County. met in confer
ence with other politicians at the Inter
nal Revenue Office in Brooklyn this
morning.
The subject OF the conference was kept
secret. 1t was said, however. that In
ternal Revenue Collector Nathan had
called the conference in order that a
ticket might be arranged in opposition
to the regular Republican nominations.
At the meeting only the preliminary
work was talked over. 1t was decided
to have another conference after the
stat" convention was held and to then
ar arge the opposition ticket.
After the Nathanites have selected
their candidates they will. 1t is said, call
upon the independents to indorse some
of them. In view Of this. Nathan. II is
sald,. VIII then throw all his force with
the Independent movement.
Worth and Buttling, who have frozen
the Nathdnlt"S out of the regular organi-
Zation, say the Independents will not
indorse Nathan men.
Mr.. Worth says the regulars" may
indorse the Independent ticket straight
through.
The Republicans will hold their ward
night to elect delegates to the Assembly
convention.
The Republicans are not likely to settle
the MaNoralty question until after the
state convention.
Nj. Nathan said this morning that he
had not. as was reported, received a let
ter from Secretary Carlisle asking for

Kwo Yin stated to the petitioners
that he would lay the matter be-
fore the Emperor, but was of the
opinion that it is extremely
doubtful if such a treaty could be
entered into, because the rela-
tions between the two countries
are too Insignificant to warrant
the expense of keeping Chinese

cost the Flowery Kingdom at the

However, he stated he would do
his best to procure treaty rela-

THE BALL TO THE NAVAL

The Ball given last night as

officers at present stationed here,
was the most brilliant of the year
La spite of the attempt on the part
of the annexation club, to throw
cold water on the entertainment
partly. because it was to take place
at the Royal Hawaiian Hotel. and
partly, because It was evident
that the members of the club
wouldn't get an entree to society,
simply because they had joined the
Portuguese anuexationists, the
ball was an immense success, and
the officers of the Philadelphia are
loud in their praises of the hospi-
tality and geniality of their new
Honolulu friends, and profound in
their admiration of our girls. The
decorations of the Hotel were ex-
quisite, and the music and the
lights and the company (and also
the refreshments) made Hawaii,
and more especially Honolulu APP
pear to our new guests as true
Paradise of the Pacific. Over 100
ladies' and gentlemen gathered,
and the dancing was kept up till
about 2 in the morning. The Boston
officers were brilliant by their alb
sence, apparently obeying tie man.

The Kentucky orator had no
