FROM LOSS OF BLOOD.
Jim Kauhane, CasSire'S Victim Is
Dead.

At 4:S0 yesterday morning, James
Kauhane, the officer who was so ter
riby cut by the Spaniard Cassires last
Monday, died at Queens Hospital.
He was buried at o'clock yesterday
afternoon.
Up to midnight Tuesday, Kauhane
seemed to be resting as easily as was
possible under the circumstances. He
was in good spirits, and seemed conf
dent of his ultimate recovery. He
slept for a while and awoke at , o'clock,
still seemingly in good condition. But
about I o'clock he began to fail rapid
ly and died half an hour later. His
death was caused by the great loss of
blood which he sustained from the
large number of cuts received from
the knife in the hands of the Span
lard.
y large number of people attended
the dead officers funeral in the after
noon. The services were conducted
by the Rev. H. H. Parker. When the
services at the hospital were over, the
procession started for the Kawaiahao
cemetery. 1t was headed by squad
of police, under command of Captain
Robert Parker. Then came the Band,
followed by attachments from Compa-
MES Z and +, commanded by Captain
Good. Then the hearse, containing
all that remained of one of the brav-
est police officers of Honolulu. A
large number of people followed on
foot, as well as many in carriages. The
streets along which the funeral cortege
moved were lined with people who
knew the story of Kauhane's murder,
and who followed the cavalcade to the
cemetery.
The pall-bearers were officers Ma
hau, Nohouhu, Kupihea. Kaikaula,
Fernandez and kaimeahau. Promi-
nent members of the Government
were present, including the Attorney
General, Marshal Hitchcock, Deputy
Marshal Brown, and many Others.
A post mortem examination of the
body was held yesterday and a cor
oner's inquest will be held today.

THE BOARD OF HEALTH.
The Supposed Scarletina Case In
HilO Discussed.

The Board of Health met yesterday
afternoon, with President Smith in
the chair. There were present Mem
bers Waterhouse, Lansing, Ena, DR..
Miner and Agent c. B. Reynolds.
Doctors Cooper, Emerson, McKib-
bin and Williams (of Hilo), were also
present.
DR.. Williams spoke of the recent
prevalence of what was supposed to
be scarlatina in Hilo, and said that he
had not believed it TO be scarlatina,
though the majority of the Hilo ply
sicians had decided that it was, but in
a very mild form. The cases were all
quarantined, but there had been con-
siderable trouble in carrying out the
regulation. The disease would break
out in places four or five miles apart,
when there was absolutely no chance
of communication. He explained the
system of quarantine, and said there
were at present three cases in H1lo
district. He asked that the quarantine
be raised, as it worked great hardship
on the people so situated, and there
did not seem to be any need of such
rigid surveillance
The other physicians present ex-
pressed the opinion that the disease
was not scarlatiua at all. 1t was de-
cided, after II short discussion of the
matter, that the quarantine in such

THE PLAN DOUBTFUL.
Little Hope of Success in n Naval Re-
tfrement scheme.

The plan by which Commodores Joseph
Fyffe and Henry Erben were to reach the
grade of rear admiral before their retire
ment for age has apparently fallen through.
Commodore Fyffe will retire in July and
Commodore Erben in September next.
There is no prospect whatever at present of
a vacancy in the list of rear admirals that
would insure their promotion in the regular
way before the date set for their retirement.
Rear Admiral Bancroft Gherardi, the rank
ing officer of the navy, VIII retire IN Decem-
Der next. That will be too late, however. to
benefit either of the officers named. Com
modore o. F. Stanton ranks next after
Commodore Fyfe. and the retirement of the
latter in July will put him at the head of
his grade, one above Commodore Erben,
who will also Ne tire before he does.
Two plans We're suggested in the interest
of Commodores Fyffe and Erben, but both
seem to have been abandoned. One includ-
ed the immediate retirement of Admirals
Gherardi and Greer on their own applica-
ton under the forty years service clause.
This plan fell through, because Admiral
Greer who Will be the senior officer OF the
navy on Admiral Gherardfs retirement, re-
fused to be a party to it. The other plan
contemplated a sacrifice on the part of
Admiral Gherardi and Commodore Stanton
Its present status is not clear. According
to il Admiral Gherardi was to retire at
or &c. This would insure the promotion of
Commodore tyffe to the grade of admiral
he would be retired by law in July and
Commodore stanton would become an adj
miraL He was also to be retired i'm
n ediately on his own application. and then
Commodore Erben would be promoted to
the desired grade in advance of his re-
tirement in September. 1t is very in
Senious plan to help the two officers on
the verge of retirement, and might easily
be carried into effect If all the parties to
II were willing. But, as already stated,
there is a cog loose somewhere. Admiral
Gherardl is unwilling to hasten his own re-
tirement, unless he is absolutely certain
that IL will accomplish the promotion of
his friend, Commodore Erben. AS already
shown, however. that object can only be
attained by the voluntary retirement of
two admirals the active list or of one
admiral and Commodore Stanton. 1t is
agreed on all sides that the last-named
officer has everything to lose and nothing
to gain BY the proposed arrangement
