The Herald's correspondent in

there that an engagement occurred
near Esperanza between Spanish
troops in the district and insurg
ents from the east moving toward
the Matanzas border, under Rabi

which left Spain for Cuba with

Rafael Echague, encountered a
storm, lost her rudder and after

Havana, Oct. 13.-Pinar del
Rio official dispatches detail a
serious encounter on the 9Th inst.
between General Echague's Span
ish brigade and Maceo's rebel
forces. The latter occupied strong
intrenchments on the heights of
Guayabitos when attacked, but
despite tenacious resistance they
were, after three hours combat,
finally dislodged. Discovering
that the rebel right flank was be-
ginning to give way under the
rank fire from Spanish artillery,
Echague threw himself into the
gap at the head of his infantry,
and by a brilliant bayonet charge
stormed and captured tho insur-
gent positions.
Maceo, after setting fire to his
adjacent camps, retreated toward
Caimito aud Caiguanabo, leaving
hundreds of his men dead on the
field and carrying away many
wounded. The rebel cannon in
this engagement gave poor results.
The shots fred fell short or caus-

THE DRYDocK QUESTION

Pursuing the Introductory re-
marks on the question of dry
dock in a previous issue, it may
be said at the outset that an or
binary craving dock would cost so
much-probably two or three mil
lion dollars-as to place it be-
yond all reasonable expectations of
profit on the outlay. We cannot
count upon the large number of
ocean steamers now calling here,
with the prospect even of great
increase in the near future, for
much patronage of drydock. 1t
must be remembered that Homo
lulu is, and must continue to be,
chiefly important as calling port
for transpaciic steamship lines.
1t cannot in the nature of things
ever be terminus of ocean routes,
where line steamers will stay long
enough to admit of docking for
periodical cleaning or occasional
overhauling. Until an isthmian
canal unites the Atlantic and the
Pacific, and a cable gives Ha-
wall instant communication with
the outside world, this port will
not even be a rendezvous for
tramp steamers and sailing vessels
seeking orders. Accidents like
that which befel the steamer Mic.
vera, happening to large vessels
on the island coasts, would be a
ridiculously uncertain contingen-
cy on which to base calculations
of business for an expensive dry
dock. There would be some rea-
son in calculating somewhat on
getting United States national
vessels, the only ones tarying long
here, as regular customers
for dockage, but on the other
hand the projectors Of a
drydock would have to discount
the chances Of Uncle Sans hav-
ing a dock of his own at Pearl
haibor. Ii we are to have a dry
dock, either in place of or supple
mentary to the marine railway, it
must be one adapted both to the
nature of the ground and to the
reasonable expectation of patro-
mage. An enclosed inshore dock
into which vessels are foated and
left standing dry by pumping out
the water may be presently re-
gardei as not feasible. Either a
floating dock or a hydraulic lift
ing dock would be the proper
kind, adequate to the highest class
of regular patronage the condi-
tons would be likely to afford, as
well as promising fair return
for the capital invested. The cost
would be anywhere from one-fifth
to three. quarters of million dol
lars according to the character
and capacity of the works. 1t is
probably too early to discuss
whether the Government or pri.
vate enterprise should assume the
undertaking.

ON
BICYCLE TRADE IN
HAWAII.


for a moment that the Hawaii
an Hardware Company is 60
ing out of the business of
selling bicycles. Not much.
We know a good thing when
we have it and our bicycle
trade has been and is now a
good thing. We have no doubt
some of our competitors would
like to see us let 60 of The
TRIBUNE agency, for instance,
but we don't intend to do it.
The TRIBUNE is the best all
round wheel in the market and
we are selling them right along.
They are good serviceable
wheels and don't cost their
owners $40 a month for re-
pairs, like some wheels we
know.
Now that Marshal Brown
and his myrmidons are on the
warpath against wheelmen and
have declared in no uncertain
tone of voice that they must
carry a light at night, it be-
hooves all of them to get the
best light they can for the
least money. We have a large
stock on hand at prices to suit
the timeS-Say from $3.50 to
$3.50. 1t is cheaper to buy
one of the highest priced lamps
than to be hauled up in the
Police Court and fined, besides
]
the loss of time incurred and
the wear and tear of your
temper.
While we are not going out
of the bicycle business by any
means, we have a small con-
signment of bicycle shoes
which were sent us with a lot
of other bicycle material. We
want to close these out and
do it quick, as we are not in
the shoe business. Come and
take a look at them, and if
there is a pair in the house
you want you can take them
along with you-for a very
small consideration.
We have a few of the we'll
known EMMY" WHEELS left.
We want to close these out too,
so as to devote our whole
attention to the Tribune agency.
If you want a wheel cheap for
cash now is your chance.
Money talks on these wheels.
Show us the cash and it will
be our fault if we don't make
you happy with one of them.
We still carry the usual line
of extras for the Tribune and
other wheels we handle, and
shall continue to do so.
