scciate with them to render an homage to
the memory of the great Portuguese navi-

trying to Float an Issue of Govern.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, August 1O-The
steamship Peru arrived last night from
1ekohoma and Honolulu, bringing the fol-
lowing advices to the Associated Press:
hoNOLCIu, August 2.-P. c. Jones, ex-
minister of finance, leaves for San Francis
co today to float the refundng loan. He
expects to sell nearly $3,JOO,OOO worth of
Hawaiian government bonds, bearing four
Per cent interest. His contract with this
government allows discount of five per
cent, and he will receive a commission of
two per cent. Mr.. Jones is given until the
first day Of next November to float the
bonds. He expects to dispose of them
either in New York or Boston.
Letters have been received, giving the
testimony Of eminent men in Vienna on the
lacillis of the disease that carried off the
natives last year. They give final
verdict the opinion that the visitation was
genuine Asiatic cholera, as most of local
physicians pronounced It,
Consul Mills received nothing by the last
mail from the friends of the late Kate
Field concerning the final disposition of
Ter body and effects. A letter from Geo.
Riddle says that Mr.. kohlsaat of the Chi
c&go Times-Herald will pay all the debts Of
the estate and provide monument for the
grave.
The military trial of Capt. John Good
has been concluded, bat the court has not
reached verdict. 1t is generally under
stood that ne will be dismissed from the
government service, as the testimony
proved that he is guilty of conduct unbe-
coming an officer.
During the trial of man named H. G.
Rhodes, an employe Of government testi-
fled that he scaled the fence surrounding
the government house and removed sight
from field piece, and then sent 1t through
the mail to President Dole. He claims to
have performed this feat at night when a
sentry was on guard. His story, though
generally discredited. may result in a re-
organization Of the military forces.
