So it appears that Queen Lii
wanted to behead the Professionals
when she was restored to power.
This was quite natural. 1t shows
the advance made in Hawaiian
civilization that the queen did not
also propose to eat her enemies. No

THEO. H. DAVIES.
He Has No Common Sense, an
American Paper Says.


The following is clipped from
the S. F. Chronicle Of Jan. 10Th:
The report of the organization of a
Canadian force at Victoria to serve
ex-Queen Liliuokalani may be true,
but it is certain that such guards
would never be permitted by the Pro-
visional Government to land in Homo
lulu. Davies, the guardian of the
Princess Kaiulani, may be responsible
for this silly movement. He has
shown that he has very small mea-
sure of good common sense, as for
some time he has been attempting to
secure the royalist support for the
princess. He evidently cannot see
that Americans would never consent
to placing on the throne girl who is
under British tutelage.

reaches here that serious trouble is
breeding in Owyhee County with mar

received notice from Johnson, the game
warden of the county, that Indians to
the number of 100 or more We're camp
ed in the vicinity of Bruneau, and
were killing deer and game of all kinds
in the most wantOn manner. Johnson
was instructed to go at once to the
scene of action and warn the Indians
to des:st The agent at Fort Hall was
also notified by Secretary of State Cur
It's, and he is now en- route for OWy-
hee. When Johnson saw the Indians
they acted in such a threatening man
ner that he left hastily. He reported
that the Indians killed a Chinaman,

Single Cantilever Span.

The Commission Reports In Favor OF
Single Cantilever Span.
Washington, Sept. 3.-The Secretary
of War has made public the following
statement in regard to the Hudson
river bridge at New York: The report
of the commission appointed by the
President to investigate and recon-
mend what length of span, not less
than 1000 feet, would be safe and
practicable for railroad bridge to be
constructed over the Hudson River be-
tween New York and Jersey City, finds
that 1000 foot span cantilever
bridge with a pier in the centre Of the
river would be safe and practicable,
and that it's cost. including viaduct,
would be $26, 723,000. The board re-
ports that investigation satisfies it that
a six-track, 3,100 foot, single span sus
pension bridge would be safe and prac-
ticable and would, if certain construc-
tons were adopted, cost $35,367 ,671.
Such d bridge would carry six maxi
mum freight trains moving side by side
at full speed. A plan is worked out
and submitted for lighter structure
suspension bridge, which the board be-
lieves would meet every possible de-
mand with absolute safety, at cost
Of $50, $4,000.

The Pacific Cable.

London, Sept. 3.-The Times, referr-
ing to Canada's accordance with the
resolution of the colonial conference at
Ottawa, calling for tenders for a Pa
cific cable, says: "With Alexander Sic
mens's estimate that such a cable could
be laid Immediately for f2,OO0,0OO,
leaving a working capital of $4,000,
and be finished in three years, or in
two for an extra 100000, the question
is entering the stage in which the gov
ernments concerned have to decide the
part they mean to take. The question,
moreover, is not purely a financial one.
The main consideration being public
utility, the nation which lays the first
cable and establishes the first steam
ship lines may expect to hold a COM
manding position in the Pacific, and in
the efforts the British colonies are
making to secure this position for
Great Britain they are simply obeying
the dictates Of self-interest" The
Times concludes by urging the laying
of the cable.
