MURUAGA HAS RESIGNED
AZ FIRST HE DENIES THE STATE
MENT IND THEN ADMITS IT.

The Affairs with the United States and
Spain Seem to be Growing Most Alarm
ingly Strained-Ofi1cial knowledge of the
Resignation of the Spanish Minister
Known.
Madrid, March 21.-Tenor e. Muruaga'
Spanish minister in Washington, cabled
his resignation on March IA. The min
lister of foreign affairs has refused to
accept it.
washington, March Administer
Muruaga tonight would neither af-
firm nor deny the correctness of the
Madrid dispatch stating that he had
rendered his resignation and that it
had not been accepted. 1t is officially
known, however, that the statement
contained in the dispatch is true.
About week ago La Discussion, a
paper published at Havana, stated
that the Spanish government, was not
satisfied with the minister; that it
was purposed by the Spanish govern
ment ITO send the Spanish minister
at BruSSellS TO bucceSu hllh. minister
Muruaga, it is understood, cabled the
substance of this article to Madrid
with the declaration that If it were
true he would telegraph his resigna-
tion at once. On the following day a
reply from the Madrid foreign office
was received by the minister, which
denied the correctness of the report and
which is to be taken, therefore, as an
endorsement of the course pursued by
him here.
Later-Senor Murauga admits that
the story that he cabled his resignation
and that it was not accepted is true.
1t is stated he received al reply from the
Spanish minister of foreign affairs
completely vindicating his conduct.

DEFEAT FoR srRrKERs.
Electrical Contractors win Hands Down in
the Eight.


New York, March 21,-The strike of
the electrical workers, which has been
held in this city for some weeks, has
come to an end. The result is a COM
plete victory for the Electrical Con-
tractors association and an overwhelm-
ing defeat for the board of walking
delegates of the various trade unions,
which have been conducting it, The
settlement was brought about through
the mediation of the New York coun-
Gil of mediation and concilation, of
which Bishop Potter lis the head. A
committee of mason builders were also
active in the settling of the difficult
ties.
Yesterday afternoon meeting was
held at the office of Charles Wills. The
executive committee of the Contractors
association there met the executive com
mittee of the board of walking dele
gates. After lengthy discussion the
agreement between the contending par
ties was finally reached The result
was that the walking delegates con-
ceded to the contractors everything de-
manded.
In the ultimatum of the employers
issued to the strikers on February 2S
the contractors declared that they
would not treat with the men until
they returned to work and that then
they would treat with them only on
the basis of the eight hour work day
being granted not sooner than May Is.
the item for the beginning of the eight
hour work day was changed to May /.
This was the only point the men
gained
The men go back under the same con-
ditions that existed prior to February
10. They agreed that the non-union
men at work on the buildings where
the strike was held should be allowed
to continue in their places with the full
sanction of the board of walking dele
gates and that these non-union men
would not be compelled to join the
union.

GROWN INTO IN EH1u.
An Effort to be Made to Abolish Distribu-
ton of Seed.


ton of Seed.
Washington, March 21.-Secretary
Morton some weeks ago wrote to the
purchasing agent of the seed division
Of the department informing him that
members of congress had been charged
with disposing of their seeds in a way
other than was contemplated by law
and instructing him to verify these
charges In less than week the agent
brought to the secretary the written
order Of the member Of the house for
his entire quota of seeds which he pro-
posed to sell to the departments agent
for $75. The purchase was directed to
be made and the agent gave his check,
which was properly endorsed by the
vendor, and the money withdrawn
from the bank.
The department officials decline to
mention the name of the congressman
now or to locate him, but the assurance
is given that the whole transaction,
names and all will appear in the Sec
retary's next annual report.
The secretary is making an effort to
abolish the free distribution of seeds
entirely for the reason that it has
grown into an evil that was ever con-
templated when the original law was
enacted.

VERY HAPPILY CELEBRATED
THE THISTLE FOOTBALL OLUB,S
FIRST ANNUAL.

Football Association Game as Played in
| ScotIand-Its Favorable Introduction Into
This Countrywide Festivities Last Night.
The first annual concert and dance of
the recently organized Thistle Football
club was held in Clan McLeod's hall last
night. The proceeds of the emit ertain-
ment are for the benefit of the friends of
the club. Clan Mcleod gave the use of
its hall free of charge, and the ladies'
and gentlemen who contributed to the
musical part of the program also gave
their services gratuitously. The club.
1t may be mentioned, was formed about
a month ago for the purpose of promot-
ing the game of association football
in this country. The game originated in
Scotland and has been played there with
great success during the past ten or
fifteen years. 1t is stated that from
$4,000 to $4,000 people witness the game
played in the city of Glasgow every
Saturday during the season, and so
great is the interest taken in vt by the
general public that the evening papers
of that city print from three to five
special editions during the evening,
giving full and descriptive reports of
the most important games played all
over the country. The game is rapidly
taking hold and becoming very popular
in this country, and it is believed that it
is only a matter of time when our coll
leges and schools will discard the pres
ent and much criticized and dangerous

The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1895-02-19

IT is either a feast or famine
and now the Hawaiian cable comes
up in the roll of the feast, doubly
welcomed by the famine of the
past. The efforts of prominent
capitalists of this country, among
whom General Hartwell has been
an active worker, and their friends
in the States have finally been re-
warded not only by the passing of
a bill to incorporate the Interna-
tional Pacific Gable Company, but
by the proposition of a cable to be
constructed and controlled by the
United States Government. While
the contest in the House over the
Senate amendment which gives the
former, will undoubtedly be a
warm one there seems to be little
reason to anticipate its defeat.
This country must reap a dual
benefit from the cOnsummation OF
this project as Hawaii viii be made
the halfway house in the tele-
graphic communication which will
be established between Pacific
shores of the continents. Rapid
transit in commercial intelligence
viii bring about rapid transit in
commercial delivery and an in
creased development of the re-
sources of every country of the
Pacific brought into closer rela-
tons with the world of commerce.
Every citizen will hail with salts
faction the approach to a realiz-
alton of their hopes announced
by the late advices from the Coast.
