their investigation of the disaster.
Not one of the surviving passengers
was called on as witness in that in
quiry. The only evidence asked and
the only testimony received was from
employees of the Pacific Mail company
The fate of an estate valued at $780,
600 is likely to rest on whether Prof.
Harold Whiting of the University of
California, who was lost on the Colima,
died before or after his wife, who
was drowned on the same voyage.
Just before Prof Whiting started on
his fatal voyage he made two wills,
which he mailed to an old college
friend who is now an attorney at Cam
bridge, Mass. One was to the effect
that if he should be drowned his estate
should 60 to the surviving members of
his family. The other was that in case
he and his wife and all the children
were drowned the estate should revert
to the members of his family living in
the east. If Prof. Whiting died first
his wife and children Immediately be-
came his heirs, but if Mrs. Whiting
died later her heirs would inherit a
small fortune to the exclusion of the
heirs of Prof. Whiting in the east.
Two persons who said they were rep
resentatives of attorneys have called
on A. j. Sutherland and asked him
| some significant questions. Sutherland
was on the same raft with Whiting and
tried to save the professors life. Suth-
erland was asked whether Whiting or
his wife died first. While the cool
headed survivor believes that Mrs.
Whiting met her death some time be-
fore her husband sank into a watery
grave, he could not positively answer
the question, as he did not see Mrs.
Whiting during the storm.

President Sanford b. Dole, of the
Hawaiian Islands, appears for the first
time in American magazine literature
in an article on the evolution of Ha.
waiian Land Tenures" in the Overland
Monthly for June. President Dole
proves to be clear thinker and a
writer of forcible English, and his ar
ticle treats Of historical and political
features of the islands that are of for
more than passing interest. The Over
land Monthly has fairly outdone itself
in this number both in illustration and
reading matter. All of the leading
men of the islands being represented.
Among the notable articles and writer's
are: Kalakaua's trip Around the
World; VIM. H. Armstrong, ex-Minis-
ter to King Kalakaua. Hawaiian Gil
mate; Curtis J. Lyons, Chief Hawaiian
Weather Bureau. Hawaiian Educa-
tional Standard; Hon. w. r. Castle,
Pres't board of education. Hawaiian
Commercial Development; Thos. G.
Thrum, state statistican. Kilauea and
Haleakala; Hon. Lorrin A. Thurston,
Envoy Extraordinary and Minister
Plenipotentiary to she u. 5. Pakau
the Outlaw; DR.. n. 'B. Emerson, ex-
Sup't board of health. Practical and
Legal Aspects of Annexation; Chas.
+. Swift, Esq. Will it pay the United
States; Hon. Peter g. Jones, Hawaiian
ex- Minister of France. How has Ha-
wall Become Americanized? Rev.
Serene +. Bishop. The Sugar Indus
tries of the Hawaiian Islands; Hon.
Henry p Baldwin. Coffee Culture in
Hawaii; Chas. ID. Miller, Mgr. Hawa-
iian Coffee and Tea Co. Kamehameha
the Great and historical Sketch; Joa-
gum Miller, the poet of the Sierras.
The Hawaiian Gable; Hon, Hugh
Craig. Hawaii for Tourists; John D.
Spreckes. Then and Now; Chas
Warren Stoddard.
The West may well be proud Of so
sterling and wide awake an organ as
the Overland, and our sister Republic
may well rejoice al so generous hear
ing. Besides the Hawaiian matter,
the editor, Mr.. Wildman, contributes
his charming department. "As Talk
ed in the Sanctum," without which
