NEWS FROM THE WRECK.
A Cargo valued az sieoO Secured by


The schooner Heeia, Captain Kalei,
arrived early this morning from TIE
wrecked bark q. n. Wilcox off
Molokai. The little vessel left this port
last Tuesday and has been out, and
divers were continuously sent down to
the wreck The Wilcox was then five
fatho,ns under water. The crew of the
Heeia were kept very busy and did not
land on the Island at all.
The articles of most value brought up
were twenty-sev' IL pairs OF truck for
cars on plant ,tion tramways. These
aloneare supposed to be WORTH $500 or
$500. The next is eighteen cases OF cor
rugated iron and some loose sheets of
the same, and sixty eight bundles of
sugar sacks but these are of little value,
owing to the long exposure to the water.
Finally, the Heeie brought a few small
articles of uncertain value.
None of the fine liquors reported to be
on the wreck were brought down. The
nearest approach to anything of the
kind was a suspicious looking barrel,
but Captain Kalei assured inquirers that
it contained water. The value of the
cargo brought down by the Heeia will
81, 200 and may overreach this
mark. The wreckers say that il is pos
sible to obtain at least one other small
cargo from the wreck. +. b. Thomas

LAST NIGHTS BLAZE.


Fire broke out on the veranda OF a
small house in an alley near the corner
OF Beretania and Nuuanu streets, at ] 80
O'Clock this morning. The place is
occupied by Kawaaheillei and there
were three persons asleep in the house
at the time. The fire was discovered
from the other side of Beretania street,
and the Police Department was prompt
ly notified Captain Scott SION arrived
and the blaz- was extinguished. The
Fire Department was not called
The fire was evidently incendiary.
Oil had been poured over the veranda
and set ablaze, presumably by an enemy
of the occupants of the house. The
bottom of meat chest was burned, and
the front wall of the building scorched.
Farther than this no danger was done.
At 10 o'clock to day the matter was
reported at Engine House No. 1, aud
proved to be the first information they
had received of it. Waterman Frank
May turned white in the face and
wanted to tear the telephones out.
Chief Hunt was called up and was
equally ignorant OF the fire. The latter
got in his cart with the determination to
ride down the party who had not noti-
fed the department OF the existence of a
fire. The telephone offices, police station
and other places were visited, but the
chief could learn nothing. This after
noon he will find in the STAR all he
wishes to know about last nights fire.

FIREMAN VS.. H0UDLElTE.
HAVE A SOCIAL TIFF ABOARD THE
AUSTRALIA.
The Captain Thinks His Character Has
Been Reflected Upon - Big
Words Follow.

Since Saturday noon the report has
been disseminated around town that Mr..
Fireman, late steward of the Hawaiian
Hotel, was insulted and ordered off the
Australia by Captain Houdlette before
the vessel sailed. The scandals at the
hotel as the result of the late dance, in
which both men were conspicuous or
accused of performing some part, was
the cause of the trouble.
Mr.. Fireman made statement of his
part of the affair in morning paper
which Captain Houdlette claimed re-
flected upon him. In other words, Mr..
Fireman asserted that the dance of
Monday night was no worse than a
dinner, at which Captain Boudlette
and others were present, given on Thurs
day evening. This statement called
forth number of adverse criticisms of
the conduct of Captain Houdlette,
though possibly unjust, and it is said
that the local agents of the company to
which the Australia belongs called upon
the captain for an explanation. This
the captain vouchsafed to the best of
his knowledge and belief, perhaps, and
then set out to look up Fireman.
Mr.. Frieman's wife was a passenger
hence by the Australia, and the husband
went down to see her off. He had just
deposited some money with the purser
and turned to go when he was accosted
by Captain Houdlette. The captain
demanded to know why Fireman had
mixed his name up with the scandals
reported as having passed at the hotel,
had appeared in a morning paper. AT
this both men became excited and were
very crude in their compliments to each
other.
AS a parting shot Captain Houdlette
promised Fireman that he would make
it very hot for him in Honolulu before
the affair was done with. This made
Fireman red hot, and words of defiance
came thick and fast, ending with a
counter-threat, as follows: "You have
struck the wrong man. Yourun against
my combination and you'll get fired
from this steamer"
That is all. No gore was spilled. The
affair will doubtless end there. Fireman
was not ordered to leave the Australia,
but, on the other hand, threatened to
have Captain Houdlette fired.

Rivers.''

His Evening Topic lessons From the
Rivers.''
Rev. DIR. Hutchins preached Sunday
evening upon the subject: lessons
from the rivers" His text was taken
from Isaiah xxxiii, 81, as follows: "But
then the glorious Lord will be unto us a
place Of broad rivers and streams,
wherein shall go no galley with oars,
neither shall gallant ships pass thereby"
The points made by the learned
divine were: First = That the river
systems exhibit the wisdom and skill of
God. Second = They illustrate the
growth of habit and character from
small beginnings. Third-They illus
trate the possible far-reaching conse-
quences of turning points in human life.
He closed by alluding to the river of the
water of life and showed that even here
mankind has foretaste of heaven.

Now it is believed that a proposition

been cl sely guarded and the use t.

commissioners until after lease of the

II it is found impossible to secure both
Islands, an effort will be made to lease
the most desirable of the two in the
hope of soon using it for both purposes.
Mr.. Fleming will leave by the Ala

1t is now given out as a positive fac
that the Hawaiian Government will in
no wise act in the matter OF leasing u
part or parts OF the territory under its
sovereignty without first consulting with
the Government of the United States
and receiving from that Government
its sanction to such proceeding.
No answer or encouragement to
the Commissioners will be given
until this willingness and sanction by
the United States has been expressed.
A member of the Cabinet, speaking
this morning, said: We have received
the proposition advisedly and con-
template no action at the present. II
it is placed in such way as to command
the active consideration of the Govern
ment, the matter will be submitted for
the pleasure and direction of the Gov
eminent of the United States" When
asked if the United States Government
had been advised of past proceedings
the gentleman replied that such had not
vet been the case.
1t may be said, too, in this connection
that the statement in morning paper
that the Government had offered large
subsidy to the cable is incorrect. 1t
has offered no subsidy of any kind what
soever. However, the Government
stands ready to subsidize any cable
brought to the shores of the Hawaiian
Islands, provided it does not conflict
with a treaty or treaties this country
NAV have with other powers.
