Organ for Hilo Church.

The.Foreign Church of Hilo will
soon be the possessor of a large and
effective pipe organ: The securing
of the instrument is largely due to
the generosity of Theo. H. Davies,
Alex. Young of Honolulu and
others who contribute the differ
ence between 500, the amount
subscribed by local residents, and
the cost of the organ, which will be
in the neighborhood of $4,000.
When the exact size has been de-
cided the trustees Of the church
will at once take steps to enlarge
the edifce to the size necessary to
accommodate SO large an instru-
ment. This will probably be ac-
complished by an addition in the
shape of T with an alcove at the
back in which will be placed the
organ. Messrs. John Bergstrom d
Sons of San Francisco will be
awarded the contract for the instru-
ment.-Hilo Tribune.

until the salary of the japanese inter
prefer was reached. Senator Brown
thought as the interpreter was white
man he should have as much as the
Chinese interpreter. Minister Damon
explained that the Chinese Interpreter
was useful to the Government In
many ways outside the court. Minis
ter Smith did not ia vor raising the
salary, and spoke of the perquisltes
the Interpreter received. Senator
Hocking's motion to increase the
salary to $4,000 was carried.
Senator Hooking moved that the
salary of the clerk of the Second Cir
cult be raised TO S2400 The duties OF
the position took all the time OF the
clerk and the regeneration should be
larger.
The Attorney General said that if
the clerk of Maui was to have a
larger salary such increase of sal
ory would necessitate an increase on
all the other islands.
Minister Damon said that in max
ing out the Appropriation bill it had
been the object to have the salary Fl
the position and not the individual.
Senator McCandless wanted the
money saved for schools, roads and
bridges. Senator Hocking's motion
was lost and the item passed as in the
bill.
With this exception the items un-
der the Judiciary were passed as pro-
posed in the bill.

During the consideration of the item,
" Salary of General Appraiser, $780,"
which is an increased expenditure,
Minister Damon announced that it
was the intention to employ an expert
appraiser, as it had been shown that,
in properly appraising goods, the Gov
eminent would gain far more than
the salary of the appraiser and his
clerks cam to.
Minister Smiths experience as At

there were systematic attempts to de-
fraud the Customs, and it wa neces-

Washington, August 1S.-The Star

Josephus Daniels, the Democratic com
mitteeman from North Carolina, said to-
day that the situation in his State was
stili hazy. There might be three cor

the sentiment of North Carolina was
represented in that declaration The
people want to take the 'ni'est cut to sill

no matter what the leaders do.

without altering rates at intervening
points. He quoted the official reports of
railways of the United States to show il

roads to pay operating expenses. He
quoted authorities to show that while
railroads could not go unrestricted mer-

Mr.. Smith closed his argument by
showing that equity could give more adj.
equate relief than any other in such a
case. ~ ~
Alex. c. King, of Atlanta, attorney for
the Seaboard, closed the argument. His
points were as follows:
The sole question before the court is.
has it jurisdiction in this case, and can
grant it only if the plaintiff, Averill, is
entitled to it? That the jurisdiction of
the court depends primarily upon exist
ence of federal question; in addition to
this 1T must be question of such char
acter as gives jurisdiction of a court of
equity. If the controversy is based on a
question of mere general equity, the par
ties on each side being citizens of the
same State, the court is without jurisdic-
tion. In addition the court should have
all necessary parties before it In this
case certain necessary parties are not be

leading. The general charge of conspir-
acy alleges no federal question The court
has no general jurisdiction in suits be-
tween citizens of same States to enioin
conspiracies, but can only enjoin when
conspiracy is alleged to violate laws of
the United States. The court has no
authority to enjoin conspiracy because
one may exist. If proceeding is claimed
to have been brought to enforce the anti
monopoly act of 1890, it must be in the
name of the United States by direction of
the attorney general The conspiracy
charged by Averill is conspiracy to injure
the Southern railway and not the Port
Royal and Augusta. The undisputed
allegations before the court disprove any
conspiracy on the part of the Seaboard.
The facts alleged show no legal damage
TO Averill. If any cons piracy exists it is
on the part of Averill and associate
members of the Southern Freight Asso-
citation tc prevent the Seaboard operat-
ing its road. The only qestion left is the
power of a railroad to reduce its rates
subject to the regulations and control of
the court. 1t is not n common law, and
not under the act to regulate commerce.
AT the close of Mr.. Kings argument
the Judge took the papers in the case and

INGALLS, THE CHOICE
Of the Thirty-ninth Senatorial
District.
1t is Said That No Burton Man
Can Win.
Watson Seems to Be in the Lead in
the 3sth, Hopkins Losing Ground
Owing to His Burton Record.

There seems to be no question that
John ]. ingalls, is the choice Of the Thir
ty-nipth senatorial district for United
States senator. ]. r. Burton has been
trying for some time to capture TINS
district. which will hold its convention
at Stockton soon. The candidates have
been so far L. G.. Parker, Oberlin; Sim
Metz, Hays city; A. J. Harwi Hill
City. Things are now shaping them
selves in such a way, however, that
none of these men may be chosen.
Burton has been laboring with The
politicians and the wire pullers of the
district to secure a friendly man for
the nominee, and to that END has had
his eye upon Captain Parker and Har-
wi. 1t developed at the recent Fill
City convention that II MT. BurIOn IS
entertaining any serious hopes of cap
turing the district, ne is away on IN ms
calculations. 1t is now understood that
the ingalls, sentiment is so strong that
neither Parker nor HarNNl can be nom
mated unless they rely merely upon
their personal popularity and not upon
the fact that they will vote for Burton
for United States senator.

itely settled, but the Hays City Free

on the approaching senatorial cOnVen-
ton:

LUIS ILIAG " ALoVNs
Hopkins Considered Wavering on the
Senatorial Question.

Politics in the Thirty eighth senator
ial district have taken altogether
a different turn within the last few
days. This would seem strange. too,
for when the short grass fellows
make UP their mind to do a thing they
generally do it, and yet they now ap-
pear to be changing round first this
way. and then that.
There are three candidates in the
Thirty eighth district, and their conven
ton is held at Larned on the 9th of
this month The candidates are Bob
Hopkins, Finney county; j. S. Sim
mons, Lane county, and George w
Watson. Edwards county. Bob Hop
Zins has been supposed all along to be
in the lead, but it now develops that
there is great likelihood of his defeat.
The winning man would seem to be
Watson at the present time. 1t is said
that Hopkins is not particularly ad-
mired because of his fnhesitancy to
change horses on the senatorial ques-
ton Hopkins was a Burton man two
years ago, but a good many Of the Fin
ney county fellows are for John j. In
gals, and so in the county convention
which sent a Hopkins delegation to the
senatorial convention, Hopkins was
obliged to get up and make an ingalls,
speech.
Then SimmOrs and Watson are both
good men. and it is thought one of
them viii be chosen instead of Hon
