sury Notes VIII Soon be Contracted for

The last steamer from the Coast
brought TO the Finance Department
sample proofs of the new stamps for
which the American Bank Note Com
pany has been given the contract, and
before many months the stamp fiends
will have some new varieties to put ON
their lists. These stamps and the de-
signs for the new paper certificates are
what Registrar Ashley has been work
ing over since he left Honolulu for the
cold chills of New York
The accepted proofs received yester-
postage stamp and the Customs Rev
enue stamp, alsoa most excellent print
of an engraving of the Great Seal of the
Republic to be stamped on the back of
the new paper certificates. The spe-
cial Foreign Office postage stamp is
new departure, designed to give more
distinction to Foreign Office matter.
The denominations will be one, two,
five, six and twenty cents, each in diff
ferent color. The five cent sample for
war6ed by Mr.. Ashley is a brown.
Major G. c. Potter is responsible. for
the design and very acceptable one
it is. In the center is the usual medal
lion bearing the photo of ex-Minister
Lorrin A Thurston. Directly above
and following, the curve of the wreath
about the central figure is the word
Foreign" AT the left are the words
Department of and at the right "Ha-
wall" In the center of the upper por-
ton are the letters "R. H." enclosed in
a circle. On either side of the lower
portion of the medallion are four
stars, representing the islands of the
group and at the bottom is the usual
figure .signifying the denomination; on
either side of this distinguishing mark
is an Hawaiian shield. AS previously
stated these stamps will be used ex-
clusively on Foreign Office mail.
The Customs revenue stamp bears
the picture of Kamehameha I. and is
withal a very attractive design. The
denomination is 81 and it will be used
instead of the impression hand stamp
now in vogue.
The designs for the new treasury
notes will differ very little from the
present form. At first it was intended
to use the pictures of prominent men
Of the country, but as the new plates
would cost a big sum the Executive de-
cided to stick TO the old form so far as
Dossible. The face of the notes will
remain about the same, but on the
back will be placed the Great Seal of
the Republic The silver certificates
will be of a green tint and the gold GER
tificates brown.

Horrible Tales of Slaughter Come

NEW YORK, Sept. ga Tampa
(Fla.) special says:
Ninety-three political prisoners were
recently ordered deported from Havana
to the Isle of Pines. They were sent in
chains, afoot, overland to Battomo,
where they were taken by steamer to
their destination.
The prisoners were guarded by 200
guardia civiles, who shot them all
down in a lonely palm grove on the
roadside near Bejucal. The bodies af-
terward were horribly mutilated with
machetes. The guards reported that
the prisoners tried to escape.

and the circumstances attending his
nomination, and appeal to the mem
bers of the party in all larts of the
country to allow nothing to stand in

Chief Guest of Liverpool Chamber of
Commerce
LIVERPOOL, Sept. 24.-The Liver
pool Chamber of Commerce gave a
banquet last night in connectioG with
the annual meeting of the British AS
sociation for the Advancement of Sci
ence, which has been in progress here.
Mr.. Bayard, the Unitel States Ambassa-
dor, was the chief guest of the even
ing.
In responding to toast to the Presi-
dent of the United States Mr.. Bayard
referred to the Queens prolonged
reign as a triumph of good and settled
government of a free country. He also
eulogized President Cleveland's finan-
cial integrity and good faith. His chief
reason for coming, he said, was his
warm appreciation of the noble words
spoken by Baron Russell of KillOwen,
the Lord Chief Justice of England, now
in the United States, in favor Of inter
national arbitration, which Mr. Bayard
said he hoped would sink into the con-
sciences of both peoples.

BOSTON, Sept. 26.-Unique and pic
BILE political contests in this city, none
approached that which last night and
today wrought up the entire communi-
ty to it's widest pitch of excitement,
and never has there been such an
anomalous result as was shown at the
close of the day, when three conven-
tions, held in different sections of the
city, named the same man for the head
of the ticket, and that man George
Frederick Williams for Governor. The
erto united Massachusetts Democracy
can be traced back to the Chicago con-
vention of last July, when in the strug-
gle between gold and silver George
Fred Williams and few others boldly
left the majority of the Massachusetts
delegation and voted for the free and
unlimited coinage Of silver. Since that
time the rift in the lutte" has gradu-
ally become wider, and charges of
traitors and "would-be dictators"
have been used freely.
The climax came last evening when,
in the big Bryan rally at Music Hall,
Mr.. Williams accused the leaders Of
wanting to control the State conven-
ton, and requested all those who were
in favor of his nomination to stay all
night in their seats so that no move
might be made which would deprive
them of fulfilling the program which
had been marked out by the silver
leaders. To this request 600 of his fol-
lowers obeyed to the letter, and all
night the vigil was kept. Every kind
of ingenuity was tried to make the men
vacate the hall. The police were called
upon to clear the hail. but the young
successful, and as a result the doors
were kept locked until 3:40 this after
noon.
Bright and early today thousands of
men, scores of whom were delegates
from out of town, assembled around
Music Hall, expecting the doors TO be
opened at any moment that COM
promise might ensue. Overtures were
made by members of the State Cen
trail Committee and they were rejected
by the men in possession of the hall,
who were fearful of treachery. The
men on the outside then organized in
Hamilton place, in response to the sug-
gestion Of Timothy w. CoakIy, the
locked-in leader of the silver men,
and whatever business was transacted
in the hall was endorsed by the outside
meeting.
The State Committee then went to
Faneuil Hall, where a convention was
held and the National candidate and
the Chicago platform We're in0orsed,
and George Fred Williams was NOM
mated for Gubernatorial hono"s. This
action was protested aga .nst by num-
ber of gold standard Democrats, who
withdrew in a body and placed a ticket
favorable to Palmer ani Buckner in
the field.
In Wesleyan Hall the STATE Conven
tion of the Populist party was held,
and Immediately they neari that Will
liams had been nominated as the free
silver candidate for Governor they fol-
lowed suit and placed him al the head
of their ticket.

Rig LAND SUIT IN SAMOA.

Chief Justice Ide Rehearing Case of
APIA, Samoa, Sept. S.-An applica
tion was made today by counsel for
WelIman, Neylan and Hobbs of San
Francisco, and the California Cracker
Company, for a further adjournment
of the hearing of the big suit in which
the above parties are involved against
Harris and others of New Zealand,
concerning the large tracts of land
commonly known as the American and
Polynesian Land Company's estates.
The application was refused on the
ground that there was not sufficient
reason given for an adjournment, and
the case will be heard on September IL.
Chief Justice Ide intends to leave Sa-
moa if possible at the end of the year,
and to accomplish this the work of the
Supreme Court is being moved on as
rapidly as possible. The rehearings of
the decisions of the Land Commission
will be shortly concluded.
President Schmidt is still here, al
though the day is passed when it was
stated he would go. 1t is now nearly
two years since the treaty powers were
petitioned by the Government of Sa-
moa to remove President Schmidt, and
early in the year the Samoans were in-
formed that he would be leaving in
September. But it is now ascertained
that the time of his departure is un-
certain, as the powers have neither ap-
pointed his successor nor decided 20
do away with the office altogether,
which latter is the desire of foreigners
and natives.

Tells What VIII Happen If Sewall is
Retained.
NEW YORK, Sept. 27.-Thomas
Watson, the Populist candidate for
Vice President, telegraphs to the World
review of the political situation in
which, in conclusion, he says:
Under present conditions Mr.. Bryan
cannot get the full Populist vote. He
cannot get it in Kansas or Colorado;
he cannot get it in North Carolina or
Nebraska. In the friendliest spirit
give Chairman Jones warning. He will
make the blunder of his life if he list
ems to the fusion leaders and believes
full Populist vote can be had for Bry-
an with Sewall on the ticket.
''The Populist voters are men who
have educated themselves on political
topics. They will not stultify them
selves by voting against their convic-
tions. They will not vote for a man
who, if Mr.. Bryan dies, will make us
another President after the fashion of
Grover Cleveland. They may not be
able to break up the fusion deal, but
they can stay at home. The contract
made at st. Louis for united Demo
cratic-Populist ticket should be carried
out in good faith. Democratic men
ayers should not expect to hold us to
it when they ignore it themselves. If
Mckinley is elected, the responsibility
will forever rest upon these managers,
who have it in their power to control
by fair means 100000 votes, and have
lost them by violating the terms of the
compact"
