California's Immen se Fruit Crop-It Was
Never Better.
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 14.-Though the
canneries are running at their highest
speed, they are unable to absorb the i'm
mense supply OF green fruits, and enor-
nous shipments are being made to the
east as well as to Europe. For the past
three weeks 100 carloads week have
been sent out OF Sacramento, while the
San Jose district mas contributed 80 more
each week.
The fruits going east are mostly pears,
plums, peaches, apricots and nectarines,
and their shipment will be continued
until November 30th. Reports from
various sections OF the state say that the
fruit crop excels all previous ones, both
rs to quality and quantity.

OH, WHERE Is ALDRICH !
SAID TO HAVE SKIPPED by THE
$. n. CASTLE.
Larsen Makes n Great Effort to Stop the
Vessel but Fails-An Excit-
ing Chase.

1t is believed that w. II. Aldrich sue
ceeded in getting away by the S. N.
Castle this morning; but he will not get
far if Captain Larsen's plans carry.
Wednesday night it was noised around
that Aldrich was getting ready to stow
away in the Castle. He was seen about
8 p. m. dressed in an old gray suit, the
coat being plain frock, style of the
garment he never wears.
On the strength of this report the
Castle was searched by the police, but
nothing was found to show that the
man had been aboard. 1t was said that
he went aboard at II o'clock Thursday
night dressed as a woman. Not finding
traces of him the police contented them
selves with watching the vessels. At 10
o'clock this morning the Castle pulled
out.
Then it was that Captain Larsen re-
ceived positive information that Aldrich
was aboard the vessel bound for San
Francisco, There was general stir in
the detective department and a rush
was made for the wharf in the hope of
catching the vessel. AT that time the
Castle was leaving the channel and
hove to little.
In jiffy Captain Larsen and two
policemen were in boat and pulling
for the mouth of the channel as fast
as they could. But if Captain Hub
bard had any reason for Stacking up he
soon lost it, for the vessel started again
and moved away under good speed.
Captain Larsen and his men pulled out
as far as the star buoy, but the Castle
had then gained so much Roadway that
they turned back.
AT first Captain Larsen said he would
take the tug Eleu and run the Castle
down. Orders were issued to the latter to
get up steam. 1t would take half
hour to get ready, said the tug man. II
made no difference; be would go any
how, said Captain Larsen. But he
didn't go. By the time everything wa:
ready the white wings of the Castle haC
grown small on the Southern horizon
and Bill, Aldrich, if aboard, ha'
! skipped"

BALTIMORE, Nov. l4-The Monufdc-

special letters from large number OF
United States Senators and Congress-
men, giving their views on whether the
Government should give financial aid
to secure the early construction of the
Nicaragua canal The letters are prob
ably equally divided between the Demo-
Gratis and Republicans. Senator Sher-
man of Ohio, writes that he is
thoroughly committed to the construc-
ton OF the Nicaraguan canal, and
emphasizes the report made to the
Senate in favor OF Government aid.
Senator Walsh Of Georgia, says the
Nicaragua canal is the greatest enter
prise before the business world. He be-
lieves it should be built and controlled
by the United States Government; that
it would open new markets for our pro
ducts, the field, the mine and the fac
tory; and would enable us to compel,
successfully with European nations fol
the trade OF Spanish-American countries
and the countries OF the Orient.

A New Enterprise to be Started In n
Few Months.
The new ice company is now an
assured fact. The first object is to
provide the city with refrigerator
works. In fact it may be principally
called large refrigerator, but as ice
will have to be manufactured, the ice
business will be part of the project.
The principal promoters of the scheme
are James Campbell. w. G. and Mrs,
Irwin, E. o. Hall & Son, the Browns,
the Wilcoxs, Alex. Young and others.
The power to be used is the force now
lost at the Honolulu electric light
works. The electric works carry great
power and are operated every day for
the benefit of a matter of dozen Gus
toners. The remainder of the power
is practically thrown away.
The refrigerator will be an immense
affair and will fill long felt want.
Much of the storage room has already
been taken.
Mr.. Alexander Young will leave for
San Francisco in about month where
he will purchase machinery. 1t will
be sent down and put up at once. The
enterprise will be second to none in the
world.

party, and who would be interested in
seeing Queen Liliuokalani restored to
the throne, have been arming thep -
selves, presumably in anticipation of a
revolt. II is also said that arms and
ammunition have been smuggled into
the Islands in large quantities an d letters
received recently by an ex-arn,y officer
in this city from William Aldri. ch. whose
wife was one Of the ladies.in waiting on
the Queen and who seem s to be taxi
ing an active part in the preliminary
arrangements, would seern to corrobor-
ate the story, Mr.. McStocker, when
spoken to or the subject last evening,
said that he had heard the story in
Honolulu and that he delayed his de-
parture three weeks to find out whether
there was any truth in it or not.
IF any arms 'or ammunition have
been struggled int the Islands do not
know it," he said, "though it is possible
that arms might have been landed at
some out-of-the-way spot on the coast.
do not believe, however, that there is
any truth in the story. The number of
natives and half whites who would take
part in revolt against the Govern
ment does not exceed 500, and they have
at least that number of guns. The Gov
eminent is easily prepared to put down
a revolt. The two companies of regular
soldiers, together with the volunteers,
the sharpshooters, the police and the
citizens guard, which is police organi-
cation organized to protect life and
property, number altogether about
1000 men. They would be sufficient to
suppress any revolt that might arise.

city who received the letters from Mr..
Aldrich, and l advised him to hesitate
before accepting the commission offered
him. He is wanted TO go down to Homo
lulu and lead the revolt, but have con-
WINGED HIM that it would he foolish
errand. Even if Mr.. Aldrich is empow-
cred by any party in the islands to secure
foreign aid for the purposes of revolu-
ton, it would be foolhardy for himself
or any one else to interest himself in the
movement. Even should the natives be
successful, Aldrich and his friends
would not profit by it. The natives
would throw them down. They have
learned to despise white men very heart
lily. While they do not manifest it
openly, their hatred is there, and it is
deep-seated. IS. F. Chronicle.

F. B. MCST0CKER'S VISIT.
THE WAY THE S. f. "CHRONICLE'
STATES HIS MISSION.
Mr.. w. II. Aldrich Negotiates For Rev
dictionary Leader-Alleged Ins and
Outs of the Custom House.

The object of F. B. McStocker's visit
to San Francisco has been explained.
Mr.. McStocker is Deputy Collector of the
Port under the Hawaiian Government,
and he arrived here few weeks ago on
d mission to which there was considera-
BILE secrecy attached. The fact developed
yesterday that he has come here to in
quire into the operations of the ring
which is engaged in smuggling opium
into the islands, though Mr.. McStocker
was very much surprised when seen last
evening to learn that the information
had leaked out, as he declares that two
customs officials alone know of the OBJ
ject of his visit
Mr.. McStocker has just returned to
the city from trip to Victoria. 1t is
well known that smuggling operations
are now being carried ON between Vic
toria and the islands on an extensive
scale, and the Hawaiian authorities have
thus far been powerless to prevent the
illegal traffic. There is large and un
guarded sea coast, which offers every
opportunity for the smuggling of the
contraband drug ashore, and it has beer
decided that the most effective way o
Gripping or suppressing the nefariou
industry is to break up the ring that il
carrying on the operations. To NOR
effectively accomplish that result Mr.
McStocker has placed himself in clos
communication with the customs Off
cials at this port. They are interested
in the apprehension OF the members Q
the ring, for it is known that some @
them have been plying their vocation
between Victoria and this port. Jus
what the result OF Mr.. McStocker'
efforts will be remains to be seen. Ii
; said last evening that he was not at a
interested in suppressing any ring tina
was engaged in smuggling opium int
San Francisco, except in so far as
might tend to suppress the smugglin
that is going on between Victoria an
the islands.
"We have large sea coast, he SAT-
"aDd it is impossible to guard it. Opiul
= smuggling, under the favorable circun
!, stances thus offered, can accordingly
carried on by the ring very easily, al
we would naturally like to see the ril
broken up"

recently that the natives in the Island

tute what is known as the Royal
