SILVER IN WISCONSIN.

Senator Mitchell of Wisconsin, who has
just returned from visit to his State,
says he is compelled to confess there
is a greater free silver sentiment there
than he supposed. A recent financial pub
LEGATION, presenting the arguments in favor
of the free coinage of silver, was being
read, he said, on all sides, and was hay
ing a wonderful influence over the people.
Men he had hitherto thought sound are
now advocating the doctrine eXpOunded
in that book. Still, he believed both par
ties would do the right thing before the
elections came around, and that sound
money would prevail in the end. Senator
Mitchell said his impression was that the
National Democratic convention would
support free silver plank in its platform,
while it was probable that the Republicans
would content themselves with a state
ment emphasizing their friendliness for
silver and its coinage at a ratio to be es-
tablished by international agreement.
Such plank would be, Senator Mitchell
said, little short of buncOmbe, for every
| body was convinced there would be no
agreement made with the other powers.

A y. PETERSON DEAD.
Pneumonia Attacks His Weakened
System and Prevails.

A telegram was received from San
Francisco by way Of Vancouver by
the S. S. Miowera yesterday, an.
pounciDg the death Of Arthur i.
Peterson. His demise occurred at
10 o'clock on the night of March 16
at the California Hotel. Mr.. Peter
son was one of those arrested and
imprisoned for suspicion in connec-
ton with the late uprising. He was
put in jail on January 3 and kept
there until about week before his
departure for the Coast-exiled
The deceased was very weak man
at the time, owing to his confine.
ment in a damp prison cell. Prior
to his departure DR.. Peterson, bro
ther OF the lamented gentleman,
stated that Mr.. Peterson was in no
fit condition for the trip and his
constitution could not stand il, but
he had to go. He was very weak at
the time and bore signs Of his con-
foement. On arrival at San Fran
cisco he was taken to the California
Hotel. His friends and relatives made
an attempt to move him to more
comfortable quarters five days be-
fore he died, but were unable to do
so. The immediate cause OF his
death was pneumonia.
II was the intention Of Mr.. Peter
son to practise law with the firm of
Gear & Gear, father and brother of
A. V. Gear, his brother-in-law. The
deceased was Attorney General I'M
der the late King Kalakaua and
again when Liliuokalani was depos-
ed. Mr.. Peterson was admitted to
the Hawaiian bar from the bar OF
Massachusetts. On his arrival in
Honolulu he went into law partner
ship with W. A. Kinney. He was
well liked and enjoyed an extended
practice. In criminal law practice
Mr.. Peterson was one of the ablest
at the local bar.
Mr.. Peterson leaves a wife and
child, who are at present resi- ing in
Ouset, Massachusetts, the place OF
his birth. Letters to his relatives
received by the last S. S. Australia
told OF a complete breakdown in his
health, and his death was not
great surprise. The telegram was
received just as the S. S. Miowera
VAS leaving Vancouver for Homo.

selves and other hairs of the late
John Thomas Waterbouse. They
admit that the plaintiffs are named
as executors ana trustees in the will
of John Thomas Waterhouss, and
that by said will Ih'y were given
certain powers to carry on the mer-
camille business OF the testator, aud
to make and change invest ments.
But de 'endants say tina. such powers
were gwen in support OF a trust i'm
posed upon said executors to carry
on said business for the uSe aud
benefit OF the testator's wife dur,"g
her lifetime and no longer. They
further say that, tho wife having
died prior to the testator, sad trust
has absolutely ceased, determined
and expired, and that plant IFS now
hold the estate of the testator solely
as executors for the purpose Of al
ministration and distribution.
Defendants further say that,
since the filing OF their bill, plain
tiirs have declined t. further carry
on the business OF the testator for
the benefit Of the devisees aud lega.

T. Warehouse, acting in his privarr
capacity, by private aud amicablo
agreement with all OF the other de-
visees named in said will, has pur-
chased all OF the stock OF merrhon-
disc pertaining to said estate anA
the good will of the business If be
testator, and has assumed all labil-
tiles connected with said business.
These defendants claim that said
agrs ement Of sale, joined in by all OF
the devisees, constitutes an acknowl-
edgment that no further trust exists
under the will except that Z, { ordi-
nary administration. They also say
that il is not necessary to sell any Of
the real estate OF testator for the
purpose Of paying debts, and no
other reason or necessity exists for a
sale Of any OF said real estate by the
executors.
The respondents admit that the
plaintiffs are executors but not
that they are trustees under the will
and codicils. They admit that the
only persons interested as heirs, de-
visees or legatees in the estate are
John T. Waterhouse, Henry Water
house, William Warehouse, Mary
Rice, William w. Dimond and Henry
Dimond.
They say lastly that they are Of
age and are entitled to distribution
of the personal property OF said
estate upon payment Of the debts
OF the testator and the legacies
mentioned in the will, and are en-
titled to the possession each OF one
tenth OF the real estate left by the
testator not specifically devised, and
they deny that the plaintiffs have
now any right to sell said real es-
tate. Wherefore they pray that the
bill may be dismissed with costs.

cable through the action of the
United State Congress, or will
the people here awake from
their sleepy ideas and tell I'm
Gle Sam to do something or
let England have Necker Island
and go ahead with the work.
Hawaii is as much in need of a
cable as any place on the globe
and other governments need
the cable to Hawaii as much as
we do. Why then should the
government that feels a fatherly
interest in country stand in
the way of its development.
Suppose the manufacturers
of the Avery Plantation Imple-
ments would refuse to send
them to this country would it
be considered a square deal?
The planters on Hawaii who
are using these different imple-
mentS are well satisfied with
them and are willing to recon-
mend them to other managers.
They are coming more and more
into general use; in another
year there will not be a planta-
ton on the Islands that will
not use them. The following
letters from such prominent
managers should be convinc-
ing proof of their superiority:
ONoMEA SUGAR COMPANY,
PAPAIKoU, HAWAII, Feb. rs, 1881
Mr.. JOHN A. ScoTT, Wainaku, Hawaii.
DEAR SIR.-The Onomea Sugar
Company has now in use three of
the Stubble Diggers.
/ think these machines are indis-
pensable for the proper cultivation
Of rattoons.
We have never had an implement
that would so thoroughly loosen the
earth around the stools, and put the
soil in such condition that the air,
moisture and fertilizer would so
readily find access to the fine roots
OF the cane and the soil around
them.
l am glad to testify to the merits
of these tools. The Sugar Land
Disc Cultivators arrived too late for
much use in the cultivation of the
last young plant aud rattoons, but
believe they will prove to be very
useful and labor-saving implements
in districts where cane is raised
without irrigation.
Yours truly,
WIN. w. GooDALE,
Manager Onomea Sugar Company.

DEAR SR:-In answer to your let
ter inquiring about the Avery Stub
BILE Digger and Fertilizer Distribu-
tor, l would say that the fact that
we have just received the second
Stubble Digger speaks for itself.
We have dug over four hundred
acres OF rattoon stools and consider
it will be great benefit.
The Fertilizer Distributor is a
good thing and has effected mate
rial saving OF labor in the applica-
ton Of Fertilizer and applies it bet
ter than can be done by hand.
These machines are very simple
and we'll constructed and we have
had no trouble with the working OF
them and we consider them one Of
the most useful labor saving ma
chimes that can be used on planta-
ton. Yours Truly,

4 QUARTERS WORTH OF GAS.

| NEW YORK HAS Gas METERS WORN
ED BY THE INTRODUCTION or A COIN.
| The nickelin-the-slo; gas machin.
has worked so successfully in Londcl
that It has been introduced in New
York city. This is the first introduc
ton of this idea in America. 1t i.
called the prepayment meter. In the
New York meter the introduction ot
a silver quarter is the coin require
to release the Illuminating fluid. The
mechanism is simple, yet delicate.
The size of the coin, not its weight.
Is what releases the machinery. For
IS cents 400 feet Of gas is secured.
which is at the regular rate of SGs5
per 1000. The gas need not TO be
used continuously. A special iudlca-
tor on the face of the dial, which is
supposed to show how much gas goes
through the meter, moves out to the
200 foot mark as soon as the com is
deposited. AS the gas is used, this
indicator returns to the zero poin'.
Meters OF this class are placed in the
consumers room or fiat. so that the
number of feet still to be burned may
be seen at a glance at the dial. The
machine is so arranged that two,
three or four quarters may be placed
in the slot, and thus 400, 600 or 1000
feet of gas purchased The meter
will register and give credit for 400
feet Of gas every time a coin Of the
proper dimension is placed in the
receiver.
Mr.. Doane said to World re.
porte- that the matter of the value of
the coin to be used in New York was
seriously considered for several months
before the quarter was adopted. The
cost Of collection, as the meters must
be visited at stated intervals by en-
ployes OF tie company, is as great for
nickels or dimes as for quarters, and
this one fact determined the question.
Should there appear in the future a
demand for smaller system of pay
ment, there are a number of meters in
the market to choose from.
Less than SEQ of the slot meters
are IN use in the city at present, owing
to the fact that no special effort has
been made to push them. They have
proved 50 satisfactory. however, both
to cousu mer and producer, that their
general use by all small concerns will
be urged in the future, but not insist
ed upon. A quarter will illuminate
an ordinary four-room and kitchen
fiat for one week.
