CRICIS AT HAND.

England May Make Strong Move
fin Cretan Question.
CONSTANTINOPLE, August %. -
The meeting of the Peace Conference
tomorrow is expected to develop a
crisis. Sir Philip Currie the British
ambassador to Turkey, has received
fresh instructions of serious nature,
The details of the so-caIled ratifca-
ton of the Thessalian frontier have
been made public, and they show that
Greece will be placed entirely at the
mercy of the Turk The former from
tier, which ran along the waterpart-
inS OF the mountain range forming
the boundary of the ThessaIian plain,
has been superseded by a line follow
ing the southern base of the mountains
and transfers to Turkey Milouna and
all other important passes. Thus any
future aggressive action on the part of
Greece will be rendered impossible,
whne Turkey will be in position to
invade Thessaly without encountering
serious opposition.
The principle of following the base
of the mountain chain was deviated
from in one important particular. A
little west of Larissa the new frontier
leaves the mountain, crosses the Sa-
lamvria River, losing a considerable
tract of plain to Greece and placing
Turkey in possession of both banks of
the river.
Revolutionary threats of the Arme-
mans are causing anxiety. The Ar
menian quarters of the city are spe-
cially patrolled and other precautions
taken. The Armenian patriarch has
disavowed the action of the agitators,
apOlogiZed profusely and humbly to
the Sultan and prepared an encyclical
denouncing the bomb-throwers, which
was read in all the Armenian churches
today. 1t is generally considered that
the bomb outrages will prove a peg
upon which to hang another Armenian
massacre. The Turkish authorities,
however, are thoroughly controlling
the mob and preventing assemblages
Of vagabond Moslems. Numerous ar
rests have been made of both Turks
and Armenians.

ment came into power, and has given
| great satisfaction to the department
and the business community.
Mr.. McStocker is a native of Phila-
delphia, and after receiving his edu-
cation in one Of the military acade-
mics in Pennsylvania, he entered the
service of the Pacific Mail Steamship
Company as a cadet, and was assigned
to one of the steamers running between
San Francisco and Panama.
On retiring from the sea Mr. Nc
Stocker took up his residence in San
Francisco and Immediately became
identified with local politics. He was
appointed to positions in the Custom
House and Post Office in San Francis
co and acceptably filled them until 1888,
when he resigned and came to Honolu-
lu. He entered the Customs Service
here about II years ago, holding the
position of Storekeeper, until Mr.. Cas-
tie was appointed Collector-Gen
at which time he was promoted to the
nent of Mr.. Boardman He is promi-
nent in politics here, and is looked
upon as a leader He was the organizer
of the Citizens Guard here, and has
the reputation of looking after his
friends. When the Annexation Club
was organized and some one was
needed to bring order out of chaos, F.
B. McStOcker was made chairman of
the Executive Committee, at whose

J. Fred Clay, who succeeds Mr. Nc
StCcker as Deputy Collector, came here
from New Zealand some years ago.
When the Kahuku Plantation was or
ganiZed he was made bookkeeper, re-
naming there until 1894, when he re-
signed and came TO Honolulu and pur-
chased a half interest with F. L. HOOgs
in the Paradise of the Pacific After
the revolution of 1895 Mr.. Clay dis
posed of his interest to Mr.. HoOgs and
was afterwards appointed on the cleri-
cal force in the Custom House When
Mr.. Johnson retired from the Post Of
fee Savings Bank Mr.. Clay was ap-
pointed Superintendent to succeed him.
His duties as Deputy Collector will not
be altogether new TO him, as his ex-
perience in the other departments of
the office frequently brought him in
contact with Mr.. McStOcker He is an
excellent accountant, thoroughly up
right and well qualified for the place.

il comes she looks for a compromise
between the Republicans and the Roy
alists in favor of herself; for the
chances of her aunt, eX-Queen Liliuo-
kalani, being restored to power are
generally conceded TO be very slim in
any event.
Kaiulani is now a beautiful young
woman, accomplished and carefully ed
ucated.
1t is believed that her advent in Ha-
waii will excite much enthusiasm, not
only among her own people, but among
foreign residents as well, for she is
said to be brilliant and intellectual and
possessed of a magnetic personality
and graceful figure
When she left Hawaii she was only
child and the people of the Islands
have not seen her since her departure,
10 years ago. 1t is largely due to the
expressed wishes of the ma
tives that she has decided to visit at
this time the land of her birth.
During her absence she has been
with her guardian and her governess,
principally in England, but often on
the Continent. Her studies have been
pursued with a view to fitting herself
some day to rule Hawaii. Recently
she has been carefully watching the
question and the possibili-
ties of the Islands.
The Princess will arrive in New
York about September 25th from Eng
land. She will probably stay for a
short time in this city, visiting with
ex-Queen Liliuokalani, who will then
be residing here temporarily, while
Congress is not in session.
Kaiulani's father will accompany her.
Though she has just come of legal
age, the Princess is possessed OF very
little property in her own right

Returned Miner Says Getting to
KIondyke is Serious Business.
SEATTLE, WASH, August 23.-
George Stewart, one of the party who
came out overland from Dawson with
Ed Thorp, arrived here today from his
home in Stuck Valley, and at once be-
gan preparations for the return trip.
He adds his voice to the warning
sounded. since the rush began.
There are mistakes being made by
the people who are rushing to the Yu-
kon." he said, ''and I have warned my
friends Let no man go into the in
terror of the Yukon country without
plenty of food. for if he runs out he will
starve to death. I also want to say
that unless more strikes are made this
fall, the country is going to be over
crowded. Going into the Yukon IS real
serious business, and it is no place for
an inexperienced man to be caught
straying around"

Kaiu1ani to Return to the
Islands.
Said to be Hoping to be Restored
to Power Through
Compromise.

| The Chronicle of August "a says that
beet sugar will not be the only product
of the Star mill at Crockett when it
starts up about January 1st next. That
will be it's special province, as stated
in the dispatches, but the machinery
will permit of the refining Of cane sugar
| as well, and the prospects are that it
will take considerable of the Hawaiian
crop not controlled by Claus Spreckels.
This years crop is estimated at about
be shipped directly East, if prices war
rant-and the calculation is that they
villa large amount will find it's way
to the new factory on Carquinez straits.
Under the arrangements made some
years ago the Hawaiian planters are
required to send their sugar to the
Western Refinery Company TO be clari-
fed and made merchantable, but this
contract will expire in December, and
soon thereafter the California Beet Su-
gar and Refinery Company, as the new
enterprise is named will be in posi-
ton to take as much of the Islands
crop as is not in control of the Sugar
Trust, as may be shipped to this Coast
This season Claus Spreckels, in ad-
dition to the cane grown on his own
property, has secured that of the Da-
vies plantation, but altogether it is es-
timated that it will not exceed $4,000
or $4,000 tons of the 200,0 900 tons pro-
duced. Thus, even with the amount
that may be sent East for refining,
there will be considerable to be worked
at the new California factory. The
Crockett refinery is to be outside of
the trust and will naturally come into |
competition, if not in opposition, to
that great aggregation of capital. |
Those interested in the project are eX-
tremely reticent regarding it, as they |
say the details have yet to be worked |
out, but there is reason to believe that |
the principal cause for silence is just |
this intention to take hold of the Ha-
waiian sugar crop not controlled by
the trust. The capital behind it is
large, and in addition to such local
moneyed men as George w. McNear,
several houses interested in the Sand
WICn lSlduu du6, dLuOuS OInclS "
& Co., are actively pushing the scheme
in manner that is to say the least
They admit even that the
factory will be equipped to refine cane
sugars, and that they expect to handle
a portion of the Hawaiian output.
They are more particularly non-com-
initial as to the quantity, evidently be-
ing undesirOus to attract too much at
tentiOn from their competitors in bust
ness. They say that Mr.. Huntington,
the president of the company, is busy
making contracts for beets, and that
the manufacture of that class of sugar
will be the principal object in view,
but no doubt is felt that when the re-
fning of Island sugars on this Coast
is once begun outside of the trust, a
conflict will be inaugurated, and that
in the future that will be a great
branch of the work of the refinery at
Crockett.
