CLIPPER LINE FAILURE.
Sutton & Co., the Pioneers o
the Horn Route, Made an
Assignment.
Their Retirement Believed to Be Fore
Swallowed by the Announcement
of New Line.

From New York comes the news of the
assignment of Sutton & Co., the firm
which from the early days of the settle
ment of California have maintained line
of clippers between this port and New
York. The present agents of the firm in
this City are Sutton & Beebee.
1t was rumored some short time ago that
the firm intended to retire from this trade,
but among old shipping men the report
was met with little credit. 1t is probable
that it originated from some one having
knowledge of the firms embarrassed con-
dition.
The assignment was made to Charles II.
Luddington ST., New York without prefer
ence.
About ten days ago THE CALL announced
the contemplated establishment of another
clipper line around the Horn, whose YES
sells were to ply between San Francisco
and New York. This line is to be inaugu-
rated by Flint & Co. of New FORK, promi-
nent and wealthy commission merchants
and ship-owners. AT the time this news
was made public it was mystery to ship
ping men and merchants here why new
line should be started at a time when
business was at its minimum and rates
were the lowest they have ever been.
To many the announcement of the fall
ure of Sutton d Co.. coming Immediately
on the announcement of the proposed es-
adjustment of new clipper line, signifies
the permanent retirement of the pioneer
line.
The active movers in the line of Flint &
Co. are said to be Simpson d Haldot, who
have already inaugurated a line from
Philadelphia. They will remove their
headquarters to New York, and have been
promised, so 1t is understood, the unlim-
tied support of Flint & Co.

Something About TOfano, Referred To at
the Fleming Trial.
In the course of the cross-examination
of an expert at the Fleming trial a few
days ago, Assistant District Attorney
Mcintyre referred to the case of a famous
woman poisoner OF the seventeenth CEN
fury, who was convicted and confessed to
have poisoned over 600 persons.
The woman referred 10 was Signora

gained prominence in the last of the six
teentn and first of the seventeenth GEN.
turtles. She used in her assassinations a
poison concocted by herself which is now
known as Aqua Tofano."
1t was made by killing hog, disioint-
ing the same, sailing 1T with arsenic and
collecting the juice which dropped from
the meat. This Juice was said to be far
more poisonous than the pure arsenic.
The poison was sent out under the label
of "Manna of st. Nicholas of Bari-a cure
for rheumatism"
When the poisoner was found out she
sought refuge in convent. from which
she was at last taken. The Archbishop
was furious at the invasion of the sanctu-
Sry, but Tofano was strangled and her
body thrown back over the wall of the
convent from which she had been brought
to the execution of her sentence.
Before her death the woman confessed
that she had poisoned over 600 persons
among whom were two Popes.
Tofano had several friends to whom she
confded her secrets. Hieronyma Spira
was one OF the most noted. She was also
the leader of a band of women who at the
time of Pope Alexander VII poisoned
their husbands.-New York Evening Sun.

Whisky, Gets Six Months.
John Giblin, a laborer, living at 428 Lin
den avenue, was sent to the County Jail
for six months by Judge Conlan yesterday
on the charge of cruelty to children.
The evidence showed that Giblin spent
all his earnings in drink, and last week to
satisfy his craving for LIQUOR he sold his
children's school books. When his wife
pleaded with him not to sell the books he
struck her with his fist. When drunk he
was in the habit of beating his children,
and finally Mrs. Giblin complained to the
Society for the Prevention OF Cruelty to
Children.
Judge Conlan, in passing sentence. said
he regretted that he could not make it six
years instead of six months.

WHEELED 10 HIS DEATH
FATAL ACCIDENT TO REV. e. P.
BAKER OF HILo.
There Was No Railing for a High
Bridge Recovering the Body
Wound--A Search at Night.

f SANTA CRUZ, June 21.-At Ben Lo-
mond last evening Rev. Edward p.
Baker of Hilo, Hawaii, II. l., met with
fatal accident while bicycling.
At o'clock yesterday he mounted
his bicycle for ride before dinner.
When he did not return at o'clock
the family did not feel any uneasiness
and dined as usual Another hour
passed without the return of Mr..
Baker, so search was made.
The track led to bride mile from
the cottage. This bridge is about thir-
ty feet high and twelve feet wide and
is without a railing. When the search
ing party looked over it the light fell
on the wheel of a bicycle, the steel
spokes rejecting the rays of the lant-
ern. 1t was then o'clock this morn
ing. Close by the wheel was the min,
ister's hat. After further search Mr..
Bakers dead body was found in the
creek amid the rocks and bowlders at
the bottom of q perpendicular preci-
pice seventy-ive feet high.
| 1t was difficult to reach the body,
owing to the precipitous descent, but
one of the searchers, at the risk of his
life, finally climbed down until he
reached the body. A rope was placed
around the corpse and it was tenderly
pulled up. When the remains were
placed on the bridge an ugly wound
on the right side of the head showed
plainly how the life of the aged
clergyman had ended. He was 65
years of age.

FOR THE FOURTH OF JULY
CELEBRATION BEGINS WITH A
BALL TONIGHT.
Decorating Independence Pavilion
Bunting and Designs Around Town
"A Busy Day.

The pavilion at Independence Park
has been beautifully decorated for the
dance this evening. George w. r.
King has had charge of the matter.
Flags and bunting are the materials
used. No palms or ferns will be
availed of this year Bunting is draped
along every wall near the floor, over
the windows, around the posts and
from the ceiling. American and Ha-
waiian colors intersperse at proper in
tervals.
electrical effects. Above the door to
the dressing rooms are the letters
1896" in red, white and blue lights,
and at the other end of the hall "1776"
in the same colors. This excellent
feature was decided upon by the COM
mittee working in conjunction with
Mr.. Hoffman of the Hawaiian Electric
Company.
Tonight's affair will undoubtedly be
the leading social function Of the year.
Nearly 1000 people are expected by the
committee. Arrangements have been
made to give all a pleasant evening.
Berger's band will furnish music. Car
riages, buses and cars will be in wait
| ing at the close of the dance.
Little if any change will be made
in the decorations for the literary ex-
ercises. A platform has been made
down town and will be set in the Eva
end of the building. 1t has been found
that speaking from the end of the
pavilion is better than the side. A. l..
Morris will read the Declaration of
Independence and Hon. u. X. Pang-
born will deliver the address of the
day.
| All business houses will be closed
most of tomorrow. Decorations in the
business center will be the most elab-
crate seen in some years. Flags are
at premium and regulation bunting
has been in demand all day.
The grand program will begin with
| the salutes at sunrise and will not
close until the fire works at night.
! 1t is too early to describe with full
justice the decorations of business and
private houses. Not until tomorrow
morning will this be seen at their
best. James Dodd of the Pantheon
was the first in the field. He has q
wall of American and Hawaiian flags
on a frame, stretching around both
fronts of his premises. There is a fine
36-foot silk American flag on the Fort
street side. Gracing the top are

ACCIDENTS TO WHEELMEN.

1t appears that cyclers are far less
liable to injury than walkers or rid
ers in carriages. Horseback riders are
safer even than those who go up stairs
to sleep. The Medical Record" says

cies on which benefits were paid shows

three large and happy designs. One
is the American shield; a second, n
painting of the morning sun just walk
ing up out of the ocean; and the third
is an original design.
From the corner of the building the
Goddess of Liberty stands serene and
supreme, statue seven feet high.
Above the Fort street entrance to the
premises is a similar figure of George
Washington. The combined effect is
very fine indeed.
This afternoon the decorators are
busy. The work will doubtless con-
tinue late into the night, and tomor-
row will dawn upon Honolulu in gala
attire.
Following is the list of events as
they will take place tomorrow:
