but the combination of names
mentioned yesterday by a large
number of persons interested. Now,
let's see how near this list comes to
being the correct one.
Carpenters and decorators had
possession of the hall all yesterday,
and this morning the room is re-
splendant with flags and pictures.
The national emblems of the United
States and Hawaii are festooned on
the walls and number of pictures
decorate the place. In the rear of
the hall is large unframed oil
painting of an emblem of freedom,
and in a medallion is an excellent
portrait of President Dole. This
picture will be framed and kept in
the club rooms.
A portrait of James G.. Blaine is
on one wall and q wreath of green
was yesterday twined about this
likeness of the man whose heart
was set on making Hawaii another
State in the Union. To the right
and left of the platform upon which
rests the chairman's desk, tables
have been placed for the use of
men who are to record the proceed
ings. Within railing are chairs
for the thirty delegates, and beyond
it others have been placed for the
accommodation of all persons the
hail will hold, while additional
chairs have been placed in the gal
lery.
Now as TO political gossip. Al
though the name of John Emme
luth does not appear in the list at
the head of the column, yet per
haps it should, for a rather lively
boom vas being worked no for him
last night. In this issue will be
found communication from Mr.
Emmeluth, in which he says that
he will accept the nomination if
one be rendered him. lie also puts
in good word for d. J. Naone for
a place on the ticket, and says that
as the representative Of the native
annexationists he should lie given
place there.
Regarding Mr.. Naone, or any
other Hawaiian, there is going to
be something Of squabble in con
veution. There are q number Of
radical members of the party who
believe that no native should be
put on the ticket, while others
think it would greatly strengthen
the whole. That there would be

vessels kept in line all the time, but
the line of the Chinese feet began to
break shortly after their firing was
returned. The Lai Yuen sank, stern
first, with her bow high in the air.
This was followed by the sinking OF
! the Chin Yuen and the Tshao Yang.
Many of the men clung to the rigging
very pitiful scene. The Japanese en-
ployed only guns in the fight, and did
not resort to torpedoes, yet sunk the
Dai Yuen, which is double bottomed.
| This is q. feat which has rarely been
achieved since the time Of Admiral
Nelson. The speed of the Heyei Kan
is unfortunately slow and, as she re-
ceived many shots from the enemy
! from having been in the last of the
line, and fire having broke out on
board, she was eventually obliged to
withdraw.
1.-THE Saikyo Maru, with her rudder
broken, dashed boldly between the
Chin Yuen and the Ting Yuen at the
distance of only seventy or eighty
metres, to run out OF the line. The
Chinese vessels seemed to have mis-
taken the plan OF the Saikyo Maru,
they supposing her intention was TO
run into one or the other of them.
They consequently gave way and
opened a passage for hes between them,
at the same time discharging two fish
torpedoes at her. AS the distance was
so short and the torpedoes were travel
ing at such nigh speed, they passed
under her without doing any damage.
''T'he Hiyei Kan; which had been
withdrawn from the battle, went back
to the rendezvous, and transferring the
dead #1sd wounded to a transport, she
returned to the scene of action without
taking even surgeon on board. She
was too late, however, which was
much regretted by those on board.
The Matsushin1a Kan having been at
the head of the line, as flagship, re-
ceived most of the shots, and being
damaged, had to Withdraw from the
line.
"Admiral Ito, commander of the COM
bined squadron, and his staff, removed
to the Hashidate which was converted
into the flagship. The japanese
squadron chased the Chinese fleet
which began to give away in paral
lei line. But night coming oD, and
there being no moon, and as the ships
had to keep at a distance to avoid tor
pedoes, the whereabouts Of the Chi
nese men. of war was lost. At day
break the japanese squadrons reached
the island of Miau-tan, where search
was made for the enemy. AS nothing
could be seen of them, the squadrons
returned to the scene of action and de-
stroyed with fish -torpedoes the Yang
wal, which had been abandoned. The
Using yuen, King yuen, and Ping
yuen were on fire and in much confu-
sion on board, as during the action the
fire could not be put out. It is
thought that an American man-of-
war observed the engagement .
The number of men on board of thec-
Chinese ships that were sunk aud
burnt in the battle was 14l2, and con-
sideTing the number that must have
been killed and wounded on the ships

Utter Defeat OF the Chinese Reported
by Vice-Admira1 Ito in n Dispatch
to the EmperOr-SOmeO OF the Largest
Men-of-War are Sunk, or Disabled.

YOKOHAMA, Sept. 29.-Following is
the account of the great naval engage
ment off the mouth of the Yalu river,
as reported to the Emperor in dis
patches from Nice-Admiral Ito:
"While scouting, the Japanese men
of-war found fourteen Chinese men
of-war and six torpedo boats lying at
anchor in the port of SaikoO-shan.
The Chinese men-of-war formed line
and Immediately opened fire, when
they had approached within 1000 me-
tres from the Japanese fleet. The lat
ter refrained from returning the fire
lest they should miss the enemy, and
upon approaching az a distance of 5000
metres, the Japanese returned the
fire.

lasted four or five hours, the Japanese

opposition to the nomination OF a
native was noised about the streets
last night, and the Hawaiian Re-
publicans who heard of it vowed
that if Saturdays convention did
not give them representation they
would put an independent ticket In
the field.
J. B. Castle stated yesterday that
he would not be a candidate for
Senator and told his friends he
wished to be considered out of the
race. 1t is said that Mr.. Castles
decision is due to a request made
by the Government that he refrain
from giving up the position in
which he has done such excellent
work for the country. The friends
of II. w. Schmidt are working
for him for Office, but it is
doubtful if he could accept the
nomination in view of consular
affiliations.
There is another faction that will
watch with interest the convention
proceedings that is the Portu-
guese. They are not saying much,
but it is known that if the ticket
does not suit them they will put up
another.
To placate all these interests, to
keep the watch-word, ''annexa-
ton" to the fore and to form a
platform is going to be no easy
matter.
Upon this convention depends
perhaps the future of Hawaii and
it is believed the delegates know
this.

understood, being Mrs. Frances l.. Camp

ing the court was petitioned for the ad-
minstration of the estate and after que
notice, Mr.. J. b. Dow, was appointed al
