WRITTEN BY DAVIES.
He Was the Author of the Memorial
of Hawaiian RoyaIists.

OAKLAND, Jan. %. IS. T. Alexander
one OF the leading sugar-planters of Ha-
wall and q resident of Oakland, told a re-
markable story to a reporter for THE
CALL last night at his residence on Six
teeuth street. Mr.. Alexander is in CORE
spondence with the leading men on the
islands and thoroughly posted upon the
inside workings of all that goes on there.
He stated that from information re-
ceived from the islands by letter and from
all other in Information he had no doubt that
the memorial issued by the Hawaiian
Patriotic League and recently laid before
Congress by President Cleveland had been
written by Davies. the English guardian of
the Princess KaiulaDi. Davies, Mr.. Alex
anoer said. was by far the strongest ex-
ponent the cause of royalty had or ever
had In the islands. Being an Englishman
he had always opposed everything that
looked like American influence. Davies has
large interests in the islands, but his home

what will be the effect of the
memorial?" Mr.. Alexander was asked.
Il had q telegram from Washington TO-
day from a man familiar with all the
workings OF affairs In connection with the
Hawaiian business. but whose name l do
not care TO give. He says that the
memorial from the Patriotic League has
fallen fat there. This league is composed

been at the time unknown either to Kelly
or the club that something stuck to the
check. and it is again dangling before the
public eye to-day.
Last night it was generally understood
that the check matter had been ended and
that Kelly would receive $4,000 in cash.
Kelly, however. has not yet handled any
money realized from this check, and the
indications are that he may not do so until
the contest is ended. At the conference
between Kelly and the club members, the
club announced that If an Injunction is
granted the club tomorrow the cash for
the check will be at once turned over If
the Injunction Is refused the fight will be
declared off.
Kelly says he will not referee the fight il
the money is not in his hands before the
contest. He declares that he has every
confidence in the Duval Club, and
although rumors had been circulated that
it was not acting on the square. he thought
they came from men trying to make capi-
tai for nothing. He believed that to-mo
row everything would be satisfactorily
arranged.
The Duval Athletic Club has made a
proposition to Corbett and Mitchell to
fight Saturday instead of Thursday Cor
bett has accepted. but it ia not thought
Mitchell will.

AT THE LAST DITCH.
President Vasquez Attacked ir
His Capital.
The Allies Were Driven Back, but
Are Preparing for a Second
Assault.

NEW YORK, Jan. 23.-The World dis
patch from Tegucigalpa, Honduras, says:
This city was attacked last night by
strong force of revolutionists and Mic
araguan allies. They succeeded in gaining
a good deal of ground, but were repulsed
before morning. Forty Hondursns were
killed and seventy wounded. The Mic
araguan loss was greater. Both sides are
preparing for another battle. President
Vasques declares thai it is impossible for
the enemy to take this city. All available
men are being sent to the front.
MANAGUA, Jan. 23.-GeneraI Ortis tele-
graphs that one of the enemy's strongest
de la Hale, was taken at daylight, after a
severe loss on both sides. Vasques is be-
lieved TO be short of ammunition.
SAN SALVADOR, Jan. %. - Accounts of
uprisings in Nicaraguan cities are being
received here. 1t is reported that the citi-
zens of Leon will proclaim Mach ado Presi-
dent, in which case Zelaya will be obliged
to withdraw troops from Nicaragua. Gen
eral PCiicarpo Bonilla is said to be shoot
ing prisoners.

NEW YORK. Jan. 23.-The Herald's
Managua correspondent cables: The allied
armies continue their N arch toward Te-
gucigalpa, and have now occupied Cerro
de la Hale, which they entered without
fight. General VasQuez has retired to the
capital, toward which General Ortez, with
the main body of his army, is now march
ing. 1t is believed here that the war is
practically over and that Vasquez will
soon surrender. Nicaragua, however,
continues TO send troops to the frontier
In bis retreat Vasquez made stand at
Soledad, but was again defeated. He was
hotly pursued by the allies under Bonilla
and Escalo.
The Honduran Ministers have tele-
graphed VasQuez that they will send
1000 men to re-enforce him. They have
also telegraphed the commandant at ANA
pala to hurry troops to the capital. 1t has
been decided 20 defend Tegucigalpa to the
last. The Ministers strongly urge Vasquez
not to surrender.
Important events for Central America
will develop in the near future. Four of
the republics have agreed to closer union,
and assurances have been received that
Costa Rica will also join. Salvador and
Guatemala have sent messages approving
the plan of union.

Bismarck sent a reply saying he would
call on the Emperor next week.
The greatest Importance is attached
throughout Germany to the reconciliation,

dence of rejoicing at the reconciliation be-
tween the Emperor and the great Cham
cellor.
LONDON, Jan. ga Berlin dispatch Ito
the Times says that by repeating his inyi-
tation to let bygones be bygones the En-
peror illustrates by a magnanimous exam-
pie the precep pts of union and concord
which were recently enunciated in his
Prussian royal speech, and which doubt
less he sincerely feels, that the present
condition of Europe renders it doubly
incumbent upon Germany to cultivate.
The Hamburger Nachrichten's repudia-
tion of Bismarck's inspiration may not
improperly be connected with the incl
dent. The Emperor could hardly have
made overtures. so long as Bismarck al
lowed himself to be considered the author
of the violent attacks upon Capriv.
AS DIR. Schwenlnger gives excellent ac-
counts of Bismarck's health it is believed
that the Prince will come to Berlin, not
for the birthday fetes. which would over
strain his powers, but shortly afterward,
and will attend one of the less exhausting
court ceremonies.
a dispatch to the News from Paris says
1t is believed in that city that Crispi has
been the peacemaker between the EN-
peror and Bismarck
The correspondent Of the Telegraph at
Berlin says: II learn that Bismarck will
| come to this city as soon as possible after
the Emperor's birthday celebration and
will be received with the honor due his
rank. He will reside at the royal palace
as the Emperor's guest. After such
gracious message il is almost impossible
that DR.. Schweinger will intervene to
prevent Bismarck coming here"

New YORK, Jan. 23.-The steamer Nor
MAMMA of the Hamburg-American Packet
Company. which sailed from this port on
Thursday eff last week for Genoa and Ma
Piles, returned to-day so severely damaged
by a tidal wave, which struck the vessel
early on Sunday morning. that she was
rendered unseawortby and had to put
back to this port in order to secure the
safety of the passengers. The damage to
the ship is estimated at from $4,000 to
100000. No one was killed. but the sec
ond officer was injured internally. il is
feared. and six seamen were more or less
injured. The wave was encountered 760
miles from Sandy Hook at o'clock in the
morning. All day Saturday a severe
storm had ragged. At 80 Sunday morn
ing the wind was so strong and the seas so
high that it was deemed advisable to re-
duce her speed. Before A. NJ. the wealth
er improved and the vessel was put at
quarter speed. Six boilers were
being used and the screws were revolving
fifty-six times second.
At 6:15. while the ship was pitched down
by the head. an immense wave boarded
her. 1t struck on the promenade deck on
the forward part of the vessel and the
deck was literally bent by the force of
the wave. The damage did not stop there.
With even greater force the promen ade
deckhouse forward was struck. This con-
tanned six compartments and all were car
ried away Back Of the promenade deck
house the captain and second officer slept,
and the latter fell from his bunk and was
badly hurt.
In the cabin every vestige of ornament,
mirrors. etc., was broken and carried off,
the grand piano smashed into a thousand
pieces, the wave picking it up and hurting
it down the promenade stairs, and the
cupola over the main dining-room had all
the wrought-iron work we'll smashed to
pieces. Through this the water entered
the dining-room. doing great damage, and
the flood proceeded as far as the cabins,
entering some and frightening the occu-
pants. In fact. the great crash awak ened
and frightened all on board, but there
was no panic.
That so few were injured is due solely
to the fact that nearly everybody was
asleep at the time. Had the wave come
later many, it Is believed, would not only
have been injured but drowned as WE'LL

vessel seaworthy, and it will be impossible
to completely repair the ship here.

All that will be done will be to strengthen

In conclusion Mr.. Alexander said that he
bad no doubt Davies was the author of the
memorial because he was closer to the
Queen than any one else. and by reason of
his having for so long had the care of
Princess Kaiulani, now in England.
Davies, Mr.. Alexander said, had been in the

MITCHELL READY TO FIGHT.
He VIII Not Consent to a Postpone
ruent of the Mill.


ST. a UGUSTINE, Fla. Jan. 23-Charley
Mitchell is now entirely ready for the
fight. His last work, a run of six miles,
followed by a rundown. was completed al
10 o'clock this morning, and from now on
he will quietly rest until he enters the
ring, doing no more work than Is necessary
to keep in condition. He is still very con-
fident of the outcome, and only laughs al
the odds quoted against him.
They have often been wrong" he said,
"and they are wrong this time
Concerning the proposition to adjourn
the fight until later, Mitchell was very
emphatic. He looked supremely disgusted
when he heard of the possibility of a
postpOnement until Saturday, and then
remarked with energy: 81 will listen to
10 such proposition from the club unless
1t is made worth my while. / have finished
my work and have made all preparations
to leave here for the fight on Thursday.
The only object of the club in postponiDg
the fight is to draw more men down
here. 1t takes no account of the men who
have already come down to see the fight
but proposes to simply keep everybody
here at an increased expense so it can
make more money for itself If they wan,
pOstponement to Saturday they must, as
| have said. make it worth my while to
wait; otherwise shall fight on Thursday"
The granting of the temporary injunc-
tion at jacksonville was grateful news tC
the members of the Mitchell party. "OI
course this does not settle everything u
said Bat MastersOn, "but it does look as
though the Governor was disposed to admit
the matter to argument now. and that is
what he has refused to do heretofore. We
have 1t from source which l cannot give
you. but which L assure you is the highest
that the granting OF an Injunction will moi
be unsatisfactory TO Governor Mitchell
My informant stated his desire to place
the city of Jacksonville under mar
tial law, and having done all he could tc
have his way upon what he thinks is right
and then having been stopped by the
courts. he will be glad to have the matter
settled that way rather than drawn out in
an eternal wrangle."
Ut suits me all right" said Mitchell 81
don't care where the hight comes off &C

The Mitchell party will move up to Jack.
sonville tomorrow. All the party profess
themselves perfectly sure that the fight
can have one result, and that will be the
utter rout Of Jim Corbett. The story that
BOwdeD had said that the fight would be
declared off il the Injunction was not
made permanent tomorrow put them in a
less pleasant state of mind. Mitchell was
at first inclined to be savage. but fipally
said:
81 have done all could and am ready to
carry out my part of the programme, but
if the club has put the money in Kelly's
hands to-day the fight may come off after
all. That bridge can be crossed, however,
when it is reached"
