has furnished the Secretary of State
with a few copies of the general pro-
gram for the national celebration. in
1897, of the fourth century of the de-
parture of Vasco de Cana for the dis
covery of India" On behalf of his
majesty's government, Minister Thyrso
asks the United States Government to
take part in this celebration by sending
occasion.
THE discovery of the maratime
route to India" he says, in letter to
the Secretary of State, having been
not only national glory for Portugal.
but an event whose consequences have
been happily felt by the world at large,
| his majesty's government hopes that all
the maratime powers will associate
with them to render an homage to the
memory of the great Portuguese navi-
gator who performed such an extra
ordinary feat. America, perhaps more
than any other country but Portugal,
has a right to take part in this cele-
bration, the discovery of this continent
being due, as your excellency is fully
aware, to the attempts of the fifteenth
century navigators to discover a new
maratime route to India.
I'm a conversation / had the honor

to show interest in this celebration,
and the wish to take part in it. /
hope, therefore, that the United States
government will contribute to the
splendor of the commemoration of one
of the greatest achievements in the his
tory of the world, which is at the same
time one of the purest and brightest
glories of country which has been
bound to the United States by a long
and uninterrupted friendship"

Little Pantheon BootbIack.
Hans the bootblack at the Pan
theon, called at the police station early
yesterday afternoon and tried to get
out a warrant for the arrest of Frank
Ferreira, but this was not granted him.
Hans said that he was riding at a
pretty good rate down Fort street on
his bicycle with the intention of going
to the Wall, Nichols Co. book store.
Just as he was turning the corner he
saw Frank Ferreira standing on the
sidewalk. He went over to the book
store and Ferreira followed him. APP
preaching the bootblack he said You
were riding along too fast" With this
he slapped him on the cheeks with both
OF his hands.
Hans" cried out that he would have
him arrested, whereupon Ferreira dealt
him blow which made him stagger.

TRIAL IN THE POLICE COURT
Kinney and Ballou for Prosecutions .
A. Magoon for Defense e-Argument
on f. h. McStocker's Testimony.
Decision Postponed Until Monday.

The case of the Republic of Hawaii
VS.. All Chu, for perjury, came up in the
police court and took up nearly the
whole of yesterday. Messrs. Kinney &
Ballou appeared for the prosecution,
and ]. A Magoon for the defendant.
The original charge was ameded so as
to read as follows:
Charged with violating Section 1,
Chapter 33 of the Laws of 1896, in Ho-
nolulu, Island of Oahu, on or about the
1st day of August, A. d. 1896, by wilful-
ly, knowingly and falsely stating verb
ally, on oath, a material fact, where an
oath was required or authorized by law,
for that on that day one Lucy, an alien
Chinese woman, having then, to-wit,
within two days, entered the Hawaiian
Islands from a foreign country, and
her right to land, be and remain in said
Islands being under investigation by
F. B. McStocker, Deputy Collector Gen
eral of Customs of the Republic of Ha-
waii, an officer of said Republic author
determine the same, and to administer
oaths in power thereof, the defendant
being then and there resident of the
Republic of Hawaii, then and there,
said Collector General of Customs, will
fully, knowingly and falsely stated ver-
bally, on oath, that he was then and
there the husband of the said Lucy (w),
wife, which statement was false, as
he we'll knew, and was material to the
right of the said Lucy to be and to re-
main in the Republic of Hawaii; for
it would have been unlawful under
Chapter 80 of the Laws of 1892, and
under Act Sc of the Laws of the Pro-
visional Government, for said Lucy to
land, be or remain in the Republic of
Hawaii, said Lucy being a Chinese
woman, and criminal, fugitive from
justice and a vagrant, and person
without visible means of support
According to F. B. McStocker's testi-
mony, Chinese interpreter at the Gus
tom House administered the oath to
which All Chu swore falsely.
The whole argument, which took up
the afternoon, was based on this state
ment J. A. Magoon contended that an
oath administered through the agency
of an unofficial interpreter was invalid
and could not hold in the court.
At the end of the argument both at
torneys promised to cite cases to the
District Magistrate later.
Owing to the departure of J. A Ma
goon for Kauai today, and the impos-
sibiIity of his returning until Saturday
or Sunday, Judge De La Vergne post
poned his decision until Monday, Sep
tember 7th.
Some members of the police depart
ment received their pay yesterday. 9th
ers will follow suit today. 1t is very
strange how many collectors get to the
police station just at about this time
They arrive empty handed and depart
with full hand usually.

Final Departure of the steamer for

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Aug. 12.-The
most formidable as well as the most
dangerous military expedition that the
Cubans have ever sent from the United
States got away, it is alleged, from the
New Jersey coast yesterday morning on
the steamer Laurada, in command of
General Carlos RoIoff, Minister of War
of the Provisional Cuban Republic.

ported as acting as a tender for the
Laurada since Saturday last arrived at

took out twenty passengers from the
seashore resort, among whom were
General Rolof, and met the Laurada,
which had been steaming up and down
the coast.

Difficulty Over Military Trials Causes
Rumors.
BERLIN, August 15.-The official an
nouncement that General Bronsart Won
Schellendorf, the Minister for War, had
been relieved from office and that he
would be succeeded by General Won
Gossler startled the political world this
afternoon. The War Minister'S differ
ence with the Emperor Regarding the
long planned military trial reform has
been topic for discussion for long
time past, and it was known that unless
his majesty acquiesced to General Won
Schellendorf's views in the matter,
which was also the view of the imperial
Chancellor, Prince Hohenlohe, both in
tended to resign. But it was thought
that the crisis would be tided over until
after the Cars visit to Berlin, and it
appears that the true reason which in
duced the Emperor to abandon his pro-
jected trip to the Rhine provinces was
not physical indisposition but the fact
that Prince Hohenlohe and General Won
Schellendorf had intimated to his ma
jesty that they would resign unless he
agreed to the military trial reform, to
which the Ministers were publicly
pledged, and which, owing to the infiu-
ence of the Emperor's private military
cabinet, especially that of General Won
Hanke, the aide-de-camp General,
would be deferred repeatedly.

Dodge survived her friend, who died
unexpectedly in the Hawaiian Islands
