Fire in the Great Crater Gra-
duaIIy SubsIding.
MAY BREAK OUT AT KILAUEA.
Late News by waIaleale-The Homo
lulu Party Returns to Hilo-Anxious
to Get Back-Steam Coming from
Kilsuea-No signs of any Flow.

The steamer Waialale arrived late
Sunday afternoon with the very latest
news from the volcano, to the effect that
steam which has been distinctly visi-
BILE for many days over the crater of Mo-
kuaweoweo had diminished and a cor
responding increase of steam was visi-
BILE over Kilauea, which corresponds
with the predictions made by some of
the old kamaainas here who have stud
led the action of the two volcanoes for
many years past.
A telephone message was received at
Hamakua from some of the Honolulu
party now at Hilo. They wanted the
Waialeale to go to that place for them,
as they were very anxious to get home
They had been to the top of Mauna Loa
and seen the raging fires of Mokuaweo-
weo. A similar description to that al
ready published in this paper as hav-
ing come from the two men who made
the ascent from the Kona side was sent
through the telephone to the captain of
the Waialeale. No flow or any increase
in activity was reported

that young Innes would go overheard,
but he trod the deck like sailor man;
the tug rolled and tossed like cork,
and with disastrous results TO the COM
plexions of the reporters. The ruddy
glow so noticeable on the face of the
Bulletin reporter disappeared and was
succeeded by one of ashen hue. The Ad-
vertiser man sought the seclusion of
Captain Rice's cabin, while McStocker
and Stratemeyer stepped to the side
rail Of the tug and, gazing into the
azure depths of the ocean, paid their
respects to old Neptune and sang in
good Eastern voices, Still there's more
to follow" A report from Innes that
the opening in the scow was choked up
by the mass of empty tins caused the
tug to heave to. Lines were heightened
and the seow swung around, the tug in
the meantime rolling in the trough of
the sea-
When another start was made the
juicy dope rushed through the opening
in freshet, and the sea was stained
again with coloring that has cost the
good many thousand dol
lars in rewards and expenses.
At one time half of the scow was sub
and in order to finish the job
quickly Captain Rice sent a sailor to
help Innes, and together they threw the
empty tins into the sea and the tug
turned her nose shoreward, arriving at
the dock at 3:15 p. m.
Besides the 5,065 f1ve-tael tins, there
were Al tin and brass containers of va

NAV 2. 1896.


House convened at 10 o'clock. After
prayer and roll call Rep. Bond reported
from the Committee on Printing that
bills Nos. 5, %, 27 and 26 were printed.
Minister Cooper. under suspension OF
the rules, presented his bill to define
the procedure in action of condemna-
tion under right of eminent domain.
Rep. Rycroft propounded the follow
ing questions to Ministers King and
Smith:
How much money has been spent on
the new Puma road. How much remains
to be completed?"
How much money has been spent in
your department for the keep of prison
ers and pay of lunas on the new Puma
rcad?"
Rep. Kamauoha, from the Portuguese
committee, asked to have their report
translated before presenting, so it could
be printed in both languages.
Senate bill No. 25, relating to the fire
limits, came up for third reading.
Rep. Winston moved that Section I
be stricken out.
Rep. Kamauoha - The other day
made motion to adopt the report of the
committee, but after the Attorney Gen
eral had spoken he changed his mind.
But he would now change back, because
he felt that hardships might follow its
passage. The minister at Kaumakipili
Churche, states that there is a frame
building on the lot where the church
is, and If the bill goes into effect they
must put up a brick one.
Minister Smith said-Eyery time the
bill has been brought up a great deal
OF time has been wasted in discussing it.
If 1T was not matter of great import
ance to the city, If it was not one that
will add to the Improvement of the city,
| would not press it, If we are to wait
uGtil the bill will not interfere with the
purse OF anyone, it will never go
through. When you come to private in
terests, every place fire proof building
is erected enhances the value of the rest
of the property in the neighborhood. If
the bill now fails it is because public
benefit is to be sacrificed to personal in
terests. That's what it amounts to.
The motion to strike out Section
was lost
On calling ayes and noes, twelve votes
were cast resulting in tie. On motion
of Minister Smith the bill was referred
back to the Committee on Commerce.
House bill No. 21 was taken up for
third reading and passed.
On motion of Rep. Robertson House
bill No. 26 striking out Section 1881 OF
the Civil Code, passed.
Rep. Robertson read bill defining
burglary and to repeal Chapter 13 of the
Penal Code relating to burglary. Passed
first reading. Another providing for
the punishment of the crime of gross
cheat.
House bill No. 27, defining larce- y and
amending Chapter 16 of the Civil Code.
passed third reading.
Bill to punish persons who engage in
fsticuffs on generalization passed third
reading unanimously.
Minister Smith asked for suspension
of the rules in order that he might have
read an Act "to regulate the public
parks, squares and children's play
grounds in Honolulu" Referred to the
Printing Committee.

cisco or Victoria the price obtained is so
low that it does not pay for the expense
of shipping.
AS itehappened, all the opium sold by
Deputy Collector McStocker, in Victoria,
was brought back on the Henrietta, and
stock in the custom house vaults, if it
had beene shipped north, would have
eventually returned here.
To avoid this the authorities decided
to destroy all the stock on hand, and to
do it in a way that there could be no
question as to what the tins contained,
because in the days of old opium some
times changed into bricks and poi in a
single night.
The plan proposed by Attorney Gen
eral Smith was to take the opium to
convenient place and have the tins
chopped open and then dumped into the
sea beyond the three-mile limit.
In consequence of this, and under in
structions from Collector General Cas-
tie, Deputy Collector McStocker, Sur
veyor. Stratemeyer, Storekeeper Kelley
and a force OF inspectors from the GUS
toms department and Executive Officer
Reynolds of the health department met
at the custom house yesterday morning
at o'clock.
The arrangement was to check the
opium in the vault, each case being
opened and the tins counted and then
placed on a truck and delivered on
board a scow at the tug wharf. The
plan was faithfully carried out. Deputy
McStocker tailed for the customs de-
partment and Mr.. Reynolds for the
Board of Health. Mr.. Kelley superin-
tended the men working in the vault
and Mr.. Stratemeyer sat on the dray
and saw that none of the tins were lost
in. the handling. Representatives from
the Bulletin and Advertiser, who had
been invited, were present to see fair
play.
When the 5,065 tins were dumped
on the scow the five inspectors sat
around the hatch, each with a Cuban
matchette in his hand, and SlaShed
away at the tins Sometimes a single
cut was sufficient to cut a tin in two,
others required more. One of the in
spectors, young native, seemed not to
be satisfied unless the entire contents
of tin was emptied on to the deck of
the scow.
1t required three hours and a half for
the men to cut the tins, and when they
were finished the mass protruded
through the hatch. The scow was haul
ed over to the stern Of the tug Flu
and lines fastened. When all was ready
Deputy McStocker released all the in
spectors but Frank Innes from duty,
and the tug steamed out. Innes was
made captain of the scow and placed in
command of the deck. Messrs Nc
Stocker and Reynolds braced them
selves in the stern of the tug and saw
that no plundering sea urchin crawled
up over the side and monkeyed with the
debris.
At 12:45 p. N. Inspector Innes opened
the flood gates and the blue sea in the
wake Of the scow was stained the color
of tobacco juice.
By half past one the wind was blowing
| such a gale that the seas washed the
deck Of the scow, and it was thought

CHICAGO, Oct. THE Democratic
managers evince even greater conf
dence in the result of the campaign as
the time for work grows shorter.
In the official bulletin issued today
it is stated that every report received
at headquarters impresses upon the
minds of the managers that the cleo
ton of Bryan is practically assured, al
though no efforts will be spared along
the line to make that majority safe
and render it larger. From Ohio. In
diana, Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota
and Iowa, come reports of the most
fattering nature.
sure of that state as they are that
Texas and Colorado will go for Bryan.
Similar assurances come from Min
nesota, While Chairman Wall, of Wis
consin, expresses equal confidence that
his state will be in the Bryan column.
From Ohio, continues the bulletin,
comes a report that the McKinleyites
are on the run; that the farmers and
miners have come over to Bryan in az
body, and that his majority in that
state will be not less than $4,000.
Indiana is in line, a poll of the
state showing that Bryans majority
will be not less than 10000, and may
go as high as 10000. From Iowa come
reports that the Democrats will sweep
nearly every county in the central and
western portions of the state. The
Council Bluffs congressional districts,
always a Republican stronghold, will
give Bryan a large majority
Illinois is claimed by majorities both
in Chicago and outside the city. Every
reputable organization, it is asserted,
is for Bryan. OF the $4,000 votes in the
ranks of organized labor in this city
5000 are claimed for Bryan.
The returns from Georgia and Flor
ida state elections are very satisfactory
to the national managers, who claim
that the comparatively small nlajori-
ties in those states will be greatly in
creased in November.
Intimidation Of railroad employees is
again charged, the Wabash and Louis
vile & Nashville being specified today
as issuing orders designed to compel
their employees to declare for Mckin-
lev on pain of dismissal if the orders
are disobeyed
The official report also says:
"a letter has been received from a
former station agent of the Rock Island
road at Earlhdam, Iowa, stating that he
has just been discharged from the en-
ploy of the company because of his
free silver views He states that be-
fore his discharge he had been warned
by officials of the road that his free
silver talk would land him in trouble.
He also states that the officials of the
Rock Island road have inauguratad
such system OF intimidation that the
employees are afraid of saying any
thing for fear of losing their positions"
