Result OF Tree Climbing at
school.
From Daily. June l5.l

LEIOM OdlIA ~ uuc 1Jsl
A distressing accident occurred
during the noon recess at Punahou
Preparatory school yesterday.
While playing in the yard some Of
the smaller boys INDUCED in that
favorite pastime of tree climbing,
which resulted in the fall and Sc
rious injury of Willie Maertens son
of Mr.. Maertens of the firm of
Hoffschlager & Co.
While in the tree the branch
upon which the little fellow was
climbing broke and precipitated
him to the ground, a distance of
about twenty-five feet. He struck
upon his left side, dislocating one
of his wrists, bruising his head
and sustaining internal injuries.
The lad was at once carried into
the school room in an unconscious
condition and a messenger was dis
patched for DR.. J. S. McGrew who
arrived shortly afterwards. The
poor child was suffering great
agony when the doctor arrived and
his cries were heartrending. His
parents were also sent for and were
soon upon the scene striker with
sorrow.
DR.. McGrew gave the boy all the
relief possible under the circum-
stances and after temporarily dress
ing his wounds, he was taken home
in a hack by his mother. DR.. Nc
Grew accompanied and after a
thorough examination pronounced
the lad to be seriously injured.
Word was received last night that
the little sufferer was laying in a
critical condition.
The accident cast gloom over
the entire school and soon after its
occurrence the pupils were dis
missed for the day. The deepest
sympathy is expressed for the
bright little fellow injured and for
his afflicted parents.

Mr.. EDITOR: Although the Bull
letin of this evening says that the
local japanese newspaper has the
news that the Japanese government
has been informed by the United
States government that the latter
does not intend to annex the Ha-
waiian Islands; yet, there being
no such an article in any number
of my paper, already issued, l wish
you would please contradict the
same. l do not believe there is
any other local Japanesepaper but
the Hawaii Shin Bun.

The fishing firm of Paladini &
Co. has commenced suit to obtain
salvage from John D. Spreckels q
Co. for having saved the brig John
D. Spreckels from destruction. The
libel papers state that at 8 80 AM,
May 2lst, the fishing boat U. S.
Grant was near Point Reyes. 1t
saw signals of distress being sent
up near a reef and rocky bluff
near Point Diablo. There the cap
tain of the Grant found the Spree
kels drifting on to the rocks and in
danger of being wrecked. Accord
ing to the libel papers the Grant
rescued the brig just as the crew
was about to abandon her. The
Spreckels was then towed into San
Francisco bay safely. 1t appears
that Captain Christianson of the
John D. Spreckels failed to make
any contract for the amount to be
paid the fishing boat when he ask
ed for a tow to safety. The fisher
men went to Spreckels q Co. after
bringing the brig in and asked for
$4,000 salvage This was refused
as extortionate, and the suit has
resulted. The value of the vessel
is placed at $4,000 and that of the
cargo of sugar at $4,000.
At last the computations by the
naval engineers upon the results
attained by the cruiser New York |
upon her trial trip have been COM
pleted. The report has not yet |
reached the Navy Department, but |
Secretary Herbert has received
telegram from Commodore Belknap |
as follows: speed of the New
York, from close computation and
corrected for tidal currents, was 81
knots"
J. D. Spreckels Il Bros. have
libelled the ferry boat Tiburon for
salvage. She was burned, parti-
ally, some months ago, and it is
claimed that it was due only to the
Spreekels' tugs and fire boats that
she escaped utter destruction.
The old man-of.war Omaha will
hereafter be used as a quarantine
hulk at San Francisco.
The tug companies asked the
government $1,000 for towing the
Spanish caravels from New York
around Chicago. The Philadelphia

ton that it was money in Column

companies here when he struck
this land of the free.
The Pacific Improvement Com
pany viii make another attempt to
raise the collier San Pedro, which
was wrecked near Victoria in No

man of New York is to
10 the work. The steamer is worth
S350,000, and $4,000 has been
expended trying to raise her al
.eady. 1t is estimated that it will
cost $4,000 to repair her when
'aised.

the Nicaragua Canal Company was

party in Nicaragua favored the Near
aqua Canal Company, and claims that
Zavola and his associates, who led the
revolutionary movement and furnish
ed money to maintain it, were on
record against it, having on different
occasions denounced the policy and in
consistent conduct of its American
promoters. 1t says the company is
unable to keep a single dredge at
work or to finish the fiimsy railroad
which runs back into the bushes, and
that the bar at Greytown is rapidly
filling. The Star and Herald adds
that its contracts are worth no more
than the paper on which they are
