ADVICES FROM JAPAN.
THE CONTROVERSY WITH THE
HAWAIIAN GOVERNMENT.
Proposal to Arbitrate Denounced
Claims Which the Mikado
Will Insist Upon.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 21.-The
steamer Coptic, which arrived to-day
from Yokohama, via Honolulu, brought
the following Japanese advices:
1t appears from the japanese papers
that the Hawaiian Government first
desired to leave to arbitration of a
third party only the matter of the
definition of the emigration regulations,
but that Minister Shimamura and
Councillor Akiyama insisted that all
matters concerning the treaty be arbi-
trated. The proposal of arbitration
is denounced as nothing more than the
outcome of the wanton indecision dis
played by the Hawaiian authorities.
No special reason is assigned for the
return of Councillor Akiyama, except
that the final negotiations, having been
arrived at, there was no further rea-
son for his remaining longer on the is
lands. The Japanese Government is
preparing to publish all correspond
ence and proceedings in the case in the
event of the matter being submitted to
arbitration. 1t will insist upon the set
tlement of the following claims:
First-That the action of Hawaii, in
refusing the landing of the japanese,
was fragrant violation of the treaty
Second-That the Hawaiian Govern
ment is responsible to pay damages re-
sulting therefrom.
Third-That the Hawaiian Govern
ment is required to establish a guaran-
tee to avoid future trouble of SINH
lar kind.
The Japan Times commenting
upon the subject of annexation, says:
so far as Japans attitude to annex
alton is concerned it will remain un-
changed, even after the settlement Ct
her trouble with Hawaii Her attitude
has been, and will be- opposed to an
nexation to America, not because she
harbofs any ambitious designs upon
these islands, but simply and solely be-
cause she is desirous of guarding the
legitimate rights of her nation there
A very severe and prolonged earth

a panic ensued. with the result that
eight were killed and fifty or more

ALAMEDA, Aug. 21.-Three persons
were injured shortly before noon to-
day by the collision of a passenger and
a work car on the Santa Clara avenue
electric line. The work car jumped
the track and plunged into the passen-
ger car, which was coming down on
the opposite track. Three persons were
injured iE the collision, A. M. Augustin
of RedW ood sustaining the most serious
damage. His legs were broken and
his body badly crushed. Augustin was
already cripple and wooden leg was
smashed to bits. The other passengers
were not seriously injured.
Car No. II, in charge of Motorman
George Craine, was going east from
the power house. Attached to the car
was repair trailer which is used by
the company to take out men and tools
along the line of the road.
When the car reached the corner of
Santa Clara avenue and Willow street
the coupling attached to the trailer be-
came disconnected and in some man
ner the little truck, heavily laden with
railroad iron and tools, left the track.
Car. No. 10, loaded with passengers
and in charge of Conductor Browne,
was coming from the opposite direction,
and was only twenty feet away when
the heavy trail car was thrown just
across the track in front of the fast ap-
reaching car
1t was impossible to stop, and car and
trailer came together with great force.
| Motorman Browne remained at his
post, and escaped uninjured, but the
| lUckleSS passengers who occupied seats
on the front end were not so fortunate.
All were thrown some distance from
the wreck but Officer Rodgers, and his
foot was caught in a broken fragment
car.
A. w. Augustine and Mrs. Ann Null
dony were picked up, bruised, bleeding
and unconscious and taken to the Ala
media Sanitarium, where physicians in
attendance made hurried examination
| of their injuries. The mans condition
| is regarded as serious, but the woman
will recover.
The front end of car 10 was badly
wrecked, but the track was soon cleared
by the wrecking crew and traffic was
not DELAYED.
Just what caused the parting of car
IA and the trailer is something mysteri-
Gus, and the fact that the trailer left the
track only adds to the mystery.
AT the point where the car left the
track the roadbed is as smooth as a
parlor floor, and no Instructions We're
seen in the rails by the motormen.

THE ASSASSIN OF CANOVAS.
HOW THE MURDERER MET HIS
FATE.
Would Not Listen to Priests-Was
"a Free Thinker and Would Die
True to His Own Ideas.

NEW YORK, Aug. PA dispatch
from Vergara, Spain, gives the follow
ing details of the execution of Angiol-
lilo, alias Coli, the assassin of Senior
Canovas del Castillo. The Military
Judge, the Secretary, other officials of
the prison, and Lieutenant Gorri. who
defended the condemned man in both
courts, arrived early, entered the cell
and announced to the prisoner that his
hour had come.
Coli calmly arose from his bed, looked
quietly at his callers and shuffled along
as fast as the manacles on his legs per-
mitted, to a hall, where the death sem
tence was read. He listened without
wincing, his eyeglasses on his nose.
Then he was told he must go to the
chapel, where priests were ready to
minister to him. His counsel again and
again earnestly entreated him to repent,
accept the religious consolation, con-
fess, tell who his accomplices were, and
make peace with the church. Coli lis
tened with strange smile; then, rails
ing his head defiantly, said:
please let ma die unmolested. I do
not wish to go to the chapel I am
ree-thinker. I will have none of your
priests, who have wearied me for days,
increasingly. / beg to be allowed to die
true to my ideas"
The authorities We're greatly per-
picked, as they could not easily infringe
the rules. So they demonstrated with
the convict and asked him to at least
sit in the chapel with the priests. He
again refused to move, and half an<hour
passed without the prisoner f1inching.
He repeatedly declared that he was
prepared to die, that he did not re-
pent, and nothing would shake his re-
solve.
All preparations for the execution
were complete. the scaffold had been
erected and an executioner from Bur
geos had arrived and superintended the
fixing up of the bench. the post and. the
iron band for stranghng.
The pious people of Vergara were
Mortified by Angiolillo's callous con-
duct Finally he was led to the scat
fold unrepentant, refusing priestly min
| listrations with his last breath.
