NO CHANGE IN THE SITUATION,
ALL Is QUIET ON THE Hawaii.
AN ISLANDS.
japanese Advantage in Keeping the
Naniwa in Hawaiian Waters
Everything to Gain and Nothing
to Lose.

San Francisco, Aug. .26.-The steamer
Mariposa arrived this morning from
Sydney, via Honolulu, with the follow
ing Hawaiian advices:
The Hawaiian government has not
yet received an answer from Japan re-
garding the offer to refer the immigra-
ton trouble TO arbitration. There is no
change in the situation here.
The Hawaiian Star commenting upon
Inc admission of japanese that in
case of trouble all the Japanese in
Honolulu were to meet at rendezvous,
says:
IF we look up the japanese CORE
spondence and the articles in the Jap
anese press. there is found frequent al
fusion to an uprising in the islands. 1t
IS one of the excuses for the presence
CT the Naniwa in our waters Should
such rising take place it would be
very easy for the japanese government
to re3udiate it if unsuccessful. and it
would be very easy to reap advantages
We're it successful. This idea of a prob
able rising is ever present in the Japa-
nese minds in the empire, and there is
good reason to believe that it is present
among japanese minds here"
The China registry case was finally
submitted to Judge Perry for decision
on Aug. 49, and an early decision is
confidently expected. AS the matter
will, in all probability. be appealed to
the supreme court, which will be in
session next month it is predicted that
the question of the big steamers regis
try will be settled before she reaches
here again in October. The principal
point upon which the Hawaiian govern
ment relies is the question of McFar-
lanes citizenship. he having. been born

THE BLACK DIAMOND.
A Property Near Bingham Soon
Become a Simmer.

A Property Near Bingham Soon to
Become Shipper.
The Black Diamond mine, located at
Stockton, shows evidences of being a
regular producer at an early date A
smart has been put down to a depth of
2OO feet, at the bottom of which two
tunnels are being run, one on the north
ana south and the other on the O'Hon-
oIeen ledge. Considerable development
Work has been done on other parts of
the property. On the outeast claim a
tunnel has been run into the mountain
70 length of rs to 100 feet Ore has
been taken from this tunnel, from
which assays have been taken that
run 81 in gold. 1t is stated by some
OF those interested in the property that
the ores will average something like
"a per ton. Just to the south of this
claim is an outcropping of galena that
shows width of about % feet
Another tunnel has been run in on
the North Star claim, which, according
to the. dip of the vein noticed in the
places the vein about 40 feet
from the end of the tunnel There are
three places on the Black Diamond
group from which it is said ore can be
shipped profitably. The ores all run
a large per cent in lead.
The development work is being
pushed under the superintendency of

A member of The Herald staff who
passed through Park City on Saturday
last writes:
"A pail Of sadness has fallen over
this once busting place, and even a
stranger riding up the long main street
could discern that something very SER
ious was amiss. 1t strikes you before
You reach the town. Aboard the trains
OF the Utah Central, the busy little
road which has done so much to bring
the Park and Salt Lake to a familiar
acquaintance with each other of late
years, there is but one absorbing topic
among the passengers and train men
al1ke-What is the future of the town
with the Ontario and the Daily shut
down?
I sat behind a mother and her
daughter on their way from Salt Lake
70 their home in Park City The topic
OF their conversation was the universal
one, and / gathered that the girl, who
had been at work as cashier in Salt
Lake restaurant for long time past,
and had resigned her position to go
home and spend a few weeks with the
Old folks, was fearful that she had done
wrong 10 give up her situation, for
now her help would be needed more
tnan ever TO keep the wolf from the
door Of the old folks.
1t is curious and sad, too, to find how
1ar reaching the influence of these no
ted mines extends.
AT the upper end of Park City I
met several peddlers of vegetables from
Heber, at standStill on their wagon
seats. exchanging melancholy notes
over the outlook The tales of all
agreed that their market was gone
up and one said he wouldn't bring an
other load Of truck over the noun
Valns. 1t didn't pay any longer.
i talked With the proprietor of one
OF the Parks principal markets, a place
where meat, vegetables and general
la1niIy supplies are. carried, and the tale
ne toiG was doleful one. Last week
lost, said he, just S1,lS5.5S by min
efs and their families moving out of
town. Some of them have traded with
me Tor 10 years, and they paid up each
month as regularly as clock work. .Bin
when thev were laid off. their last
months pay was only sufficient to pay
1helr passage to Butte, LeadYille, Mer-
eur, California or the Klondfke. and
they left without word to me. some
Of them walked past my door with their
Nallses IN hand, and never so much as
looked in. And / worked hard for that
money for a good many years was
his melancholy conclusion.
When one thinks that his expert
ence is but one OF many. some idea
can be gained Of the wide spread dis
tress the suspension of two such prop
critics as the Ontario and Daily mines |
brings about
The shrlnkage in the value of prop |
erty IN the Park will be enormous |
Closed shutters. assignee sales and for |
sale or for rent signs are already /
-infully numerous. and what the IN |
ture of the big town really is, it would |
take more of prophet that this writer |
to determine"

| A convention in which the mine own
ers, miners, smelter men, railroad Off
Gals, ETC., are to take part is one of
the possibilities of the near future.
The movement has been started by
number of leading mine owners and
mining men and the idea seems to be
meeting with popular favor on all
sides.
The present decline in the price of
silver has presented the problem of
how can the mines be kept in opera
tion?"
Under present conditions it seems
very probable that nearly all Ene silver
producing mines will be forced to close
ana that would mean the throwing out
OF employment of thousands Of min
erS.
If the convention is called represen-
tatives from the classes named viii be
invited to participate in the delibera-
tons and questions which effect the
welfare of all concerned will be brought
up and discussed.
The object is to form closer relation
ship and come to some understanding
that viii be Of mutual benefit.
In the first place the mine owners
complain that the railroads and smell
tiers are eXacting exorbitant charges
for handling ores. Concessions will be
asked for from them. Reasonable con
cessions Will be asked for from the
miners themselves in an adjustment of
the scale of wages. The mine owners
generally seem to want to meet other
interests involved half way and make
Just allowances.
1t is believed that if economy is prac-
tfced and if a scaling down is made
on all sides, many of the mines that
would otherwise have to close can be
kept in operation by mining on a small
margin.
Such convention would undoubted-
~ be of great benefit and it is hoped
that a call will be made to convene at
an early date.

A Tried Remedy For Billiousness.

Those who suffer from disorder or in
action of the liver will never get the
upper hand of hesunruly organ so long
as they use such Irrational remedies
as blue pill, calomel and podophyllin.
But from the tried and popular medi-
cine, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. they
may expect relief with a certainty of
obtaining it. The influence of the Bit
tiers upon the great hillary gland is di-
rect, powerful and speedily felt. The
relief afforded is not spasmodic. but
complete and permanent. The sallow-
ness of the skin, furred appearance of
the tongue, indigestion, costiveness,
headache, nausea. pains through the
right side and shoulder, in fact every
accompaniment of the obstinate COM
plant are entirely and promptly re-
moved by course of this inestimable
medicine, in behalfaef which, Testimony
is constantly emanating from every
quarter, and from all classes of society.

At the Jennie

L. G. Hardy has returned from Idaho
where he is experimenting operations
at the Jennie mine, located on Conner
creek. He reports that the miners are
running a tunnel to cut the main ore
bodies at a depth of $50 feet Some
good ore is being taken out of the mine
and it is expected that car load lot
will be on the market today.
A mill will be built for the Jennie
just as soon as the amount of ore in
the mine justifies the expenditure of
money for such purposes.
Mr.. Hardy is also interested in the
Washable mine located near the Idaho
Utah line and he is of the opinion that
that property will become very valu-
able after little DEVELOPMENT.
