Germany and England.

Advices up to January 10 pictured a
grave situation between Germany and
England. War seemed imminent.
England was preparing great
feet to defy the world. Russia
was to favor the Germans. The Berlin
Foreign Office, it was reported, would
advise an Invasion of England. In
England feeling against the Germans
was intense. In the Reichstag on the
9th cheers greeted reference to the i'm
pending crisis,
The trouble began in December with
attempt of foreigners to obtain equal
privileges with the Beers in the Trans
vaal. On the 39th Dec. force of British
invaded Transvaal territory. The force
numbered 1000 and was led
by DIR. Jameson, the British Commits
sioner. On the I'd January short ami
bloody conflict took place between the
British and Transvaal troops. The for
mer were defeated anu captured. TWEEN
ty were slain.
This aggressive move on the part of
the British infiamed Germany. Prince
Hatzfelt, the German ambassador in
London, was immediately instructed to
accentuate Germany's disapprOval OF
any change in the status quo
in the Transvaal. On the 3rd.
Emperor William of Germany sen,
his congratulations to President Kreut
ger of the Transvaal Republic for his
energetic repulse Of the invaders upon
his territory. Strong feeling was also
reported in France Holland, Russia,
Portugal and the Uni,ed States.
On the 7th the situa ion was exceed
ingly grave. Preparations were being
made in both empires. On the last date
of news England was making great
preparations for war. The Kaiser was
firm. but gave no signs of his immediate
intentions.

Mr.. Humphreys is native of
Mississippi. He is young man of
rare talent, refined and of courtly
bearing. In his native state he
won an enviable reputation for
legal ability. When he arrived in
Hawaii less than year ago, it was
with such papers as to admit him
to the complete confidence of the
Bar Association and the community
at large. For time he was asso-
ciated with J. A. Magoon in the
law business, but recently opened
an Office for himself.

held business meeting Thursday
evening. One new member was
initiated aud two applications re.
ceived. Routine business was
transacted.
The remainder of the evening
was devoted to discussion OH the
subject Of the possibilities of the

had become discouraged. The
young Hawaiians Of the In

They would take as their guide the
example of successful foreigners
and strive to enter into their higher
walk, in learning and in principle.
The Institute would adopt the ex-
allied example Of the secret societies
of the foreigners for its government.
There was large turnout. En-.
thusiasm was marked and is con-
stantly increasing. The young men
of the Institute are unquestionably
doing a noble work and deserve the
cordial support of the community.
They extend to all young
Hawaiians who can qualify an
invitation to join them and assist
in the good work they are endea-
voring to carry forward.

New YORK, Jan. 8.-President Have
meyer stated that dividend of 12 per
cent. had been paid on the common
stock of the sugar trust and per cent.
on the preferred stock. He said that
the condition OF the company was pros
porous. The price Of sugar had gone up
cent per pound during the past year
and would be likely to be increased very
materially during the present year.
There will be no grinding Of sugar
cane in Cuba this year, owing to the 70.
bellion, and consequently the worlds
supply will be decreased by ZOO, 900
tons, Jone.fifth Of the entire production
OF the world. A considerable increase
In prices was therefore certain.
