There was a hot and tired crowd of pris-
oners in Judge Kimball's procession this
morning, where twenty-one men and seven
women were marched into the dock and
put on exhibition at $40 o'clock. The trials
of collateral cases consumed the earlier
part of the day, and only three of the I'M
fortunate ones in the procession had been
tried at 10:45. In the lock the women had
seats, but most of the men were compelled
to stand along the -ail, over which is
wire screen. and this delay only added to
the hardship already experienced, and re-
suited in some of the prisoners reaching
the work house or jail an hour later than
they would have reached there had the
dock cases been tried :irst.
When second start was made the cases
were quickly disposed of, and the prisoners
were sent down, some to the work house
and others to the Jail. where, IL Col Clay's
recommendations are adopted, they will
have to content themselves with meat and
bread, and do without fish.

The Japanese Contingent Plotting n

A San Francisco dispatch says: "It is
probable that the next sixty days will de-

Private information recently received by
c. w. Ashford in this city indicates that
trouble is gathering around the govern

The Japanese, who are numerous on the
island and who at present are feverish and
elated over the victory of the mother coun-
try in the war with China, threaten to
come forward and become serious factors
in the government of Hawaii and the ad-
juStment of its affairs. 1t is known that
among the Japanese on the islands are
several hundred trained soldiers In fact.
there are enough to seize and control the
government at any time, should they so
choose. The natives are restless and dis-
satisfied and only wait an opportunity to
fly into the thick of another insurrection.

of Mr. Ashford. that the base of opera
