While here and there much that IS beauti-

escape the fact that the ensemble has been

Secretary of the Navy Takes Excep-
ton to "a COurt-MartiaI Verdict.

WASHINGTON, June 22-Secretary Long
is unwilling that a naval officer shall be
permitted to send letters to civilians threat
ening to use his official position for personal
advantage and still escape punishment. For
this reason he has disapproved of the find
ings of the court-martial in the case of
Lieutenant Fidelio S. Carter, attached to
the receiving ship Independence at the
Mare island navy yard, California, and has
expressed his disapproval in severe Ian
guage. Lieutenant Carter was accused of
sending a letter to a civilian threatening
that II the civilian did not withdraw a letter
which the lieutenant enormously supposed
he had sent to the Navy Department MAX
ing charges against the officer, the latter
would have his son arrested and tried for
fraudulent enlistment The facts We're
proved. but the court acquitted the officer
a rather paradoxical conclusion. Secretary
Long holds that the effect of this action Is
to constitute a declaration that the writing
of such letters does not constitute conduct
unbecoming an officer and gentleman and
Scandalous conduct. A covert threat to use
knowledge of wrongdoing of a subordinate
to shield or promote ones own interest, he
says, is most reprehensible and unbecom-
ing, wherefore the findings of the court are
disapproved. The effect of the secretary S
action is to release the officer, as though
not approving of the acquittal. The sec
rotary has no authority TO order a second
trial for the same alleged offense.

NO More Protests Against Annexation.

WASHINGTON, June 22.-Neither the
Chinese nor the Portuguese minister has
made protest against the Hawaiian treaty
of annexation, nor has either of them re-
ceived any instructions on the subject from
his government. ~Viscount De Santa Thry-
so, the Portuguese minister, says he has no
doubt but that the Portuguese colony IN
Hawaii will be as amply protected under
the laws OF the United States as under the
present regime on the islands, and he sees
no possible reason why Portugal should
lodge protest against the treaty. The
Chinese minister is inclined to think that
the clause in the treaty excluding the fur
is unnecessary, as the exclusion act would
apply to them If our jurisdiction were ex-
tended to Hawaii. China has assented TO
the policy of exclusion and he sees no ne
cessity for comment on that score There
are about 1000 Chinese in Hawaii.

THE CHINESE ARE HAPPY WALKER CLAIM SETTLED
THE CAPTAIN RECEIVES TWO
HUNDRED AND FIFTY AOLLARS.
An Episode of the 1895 Rebellion
Passes Into History-The Captain
Wanted to Leave Honolulu.

The recent decision of the British
Columbia courts in the Cranstoun case,
awarding him $1,000 damages for being
carried away from the islands by one
of the Canadian-Australian steamers,
shortly after the trouble of 1895, has
brought forth a rumor to the effect
that the Hawaiian Government has re-
Gently settled claim made by Captain
Walker, for being prevented from leav-
ing Honolulu. According to the source
of this information, which is said to
come from Capt. Walker himself,
though through an outside source, the
Government eXchequer was reduced
some $3.50 in lieu of the damages said
to have resulted to Capt. Walker by
leave for Victoria. The original claim
was for $500, but compromise of one
half that amount was agreed upon by
the gentleman referred to.
1t will be remembered that Capt.
Walkers presence was required by the
Government in some matters then
not allowed to leave the islands. For
this detention he claimed damages for
the sum named, which was made
through the British commissioner. The
affair in which Capt. Walker was said
to be needed having been satisfactorily
disposed of a short time after his pro-
iected departure, the gentleman was
detained but few weeks and left by
the next vessel bound North.
Minister Smith was seen this morn
ing in reference to the above, and
stated that the Government had set
tied the claim of Capt. Walker for $3.50.

''If Ye Love Me Keep My Command

church Sunday morning. The main
points of the sermon We're: Love is
the greatest, divinest thing of earth
or heaven, for "God is Love" Love is
absolutely essential to a Christian.
Love to God and man must have pos
session of the heart and life. Love is
fervent, active, thoughtful, thinketh
no evil. Love must be guided by
reason or great harm may result, al
though the motive may be right. The
text gives a text for the Chrstian-if
we do not keep Gods commandments
we do not love him. "Come Over and
Help Us" was the text of the evening.
