The rains OF last Friday night.

the start to good many of the

against the wear of the element,

Minister Hatch and Cooper Pay Their
Respects.
WASHINGTON, d. c., Dec. 2.-There
were two distinguished officials OF the
Hawaiian Government at the State De-
partment today, Mr.. Hatch, the Ha-
waiian Minister to this country, and
Mr.. Cooper, the Hawaiian Minister of
Foreign Affairs. They had short in
terview with Secretary Olney. 1t is
stated that the visit had no special po-
litical significance further than the de-
sire of the Hawaiian premier to pay his
respects to the head of the United
States Foreign Office, and to arrange.
if possible, for an audience with the
President for a similar purpose.
1t is stated further that no reference
was made to the question of anneXa-
ton, that being a subject that the Ha-
waiian authorities prefer to leave to
the consideration of the incoming ad-
ministration, because of a well-ground-
ed impression that there is no hope
of a favorable consideration of the
proposition by the powers that be.

up her residence in a private dwelling,
there to ruminate upon her fallen
greatness.
Her trial before the military court
was a great political event. 1t was at
this time that she made a statement
concerning herself and the Hawaiians
that created profound stir among her
faithful subjects. Her trial resulted
in a dismissal of the charges brought
against her.

LONDON, Dec. 8.-The deadlock
which has been the foulest reproach
of the age to modern civilization and
to humanity is broken at last; so also is
that contemplate thing which the
world has known during the past year
as the concert of Europe. In place
of both. for they both mean the same
thing, there has been created a new
and living potentiality which, while it
will not undertake to avenge innocent
blood already shed, will speedily strip

BRAZIL BACKS In.
Lays Claim to the Disputed Terri
tory I'm Guiana.


NEW YORK, Dec. 22.-The Herald's
correspondent in Rio Janeiro, Brazil.
telegraphs that 1t is semi officially an
nounced that the Brazilian government
Is in possession of documents Of tho
greatest Importance in relation to that
part of Guiana which is now in dis
pute between Great Britain and Vene-
zuela. These documents, 1t is stated.
give satisfactory proof that the terri
tory in question is properly within the
domain of Brazil. 1t Is also declared
that when the dispute between Eng
land and Venezuela Is settled, Brazil
will formally present her title to the
territory and expects to triumph over
all claimants. Brazil's claim to the
territory in the general Guiana district
began with a dispute over a portion
now under arbitration between that
country and France Her claim to adj
joining territory in Venezuela is of a
more recent date. Brazil was much dis
turbed during the latter part Of this
year, concerning news of the presence
of British troops in the territory in
dispute. English missionaries then in
the territory declared it to be neutral
until a final adjustment should be ar
rived at 1t appears now that Brazil
has extended her claims in Guiana to
all the region in the Yuruaria and Del
to territories. This includes the CEN
trail gold fields, in which is the famous
Callao mine and no less than three
towns-Guacipati, FL Callao and Tu-
meremo. The claim also involves the
possession Of rich sugar estates and
profitable grazing lands
