LITERARY QUEEN LII.

New York, July 1.-THE Times says:
Lilioukalana, former queen of Ha-
wall, has settled down in a hotel here
into a sora of literary retirement. There
she devotes herself to composing Ha-
waiian melodies and songs and to coll
lecting material for her eventful auto
biography.
Her private secretary, Mr.. Palmer,
says she is engaged in reading the
proofs of a brochure she is preparing
for publishing firm. This has for its
subject: The Creation of the World,
according to Hawaiian Traditions"
Its sources are manuscripts that have
been handed down in her family for
several generations.
Besides this book, she is engaged up
on the history of her own life.
Lilioukalana keeps all her move
ments as secret as possible. But she
will probably remain here this week.
''All 1 know" said her secretary, lis
that she has no intention Of going back
to Honolulu at this time"

When the inmates discovered who

Four Great Nations, Today
It's Only Two.
New York. July 14.-A special to the
Journal and Advertiser from Wash
ington says:
Nathan Appleton of Boston, who is
here in the interest of the Panama can
al, in an interview outlines the nature
of his visit to the president:
Il am here" he said, ito further a
scheme which will result in the COM
pletion of the Panama canal with the
cooperation of American capital.
have an appointment with the pIesi-
dent for this week and at that inter-
view shall present my plans
My purpose is to obtain some OFF,
cial Endorsements or recommendations
showing the interest of this govern
ment and people in the canal enter
prise. / think the French sharehold-
ers would be willing to sell all of their
interest in the canal for $100,000,000. II
the French shareholders do not ac-
cept the proposition to close out the
canal at s10O,OO0.0OO then / think they
would agree to take us into partnership
for the completion of the waterway"
"A commission of engineers, chosen
half by the new company and half by
the liquidation committee, would be
sent to the spot to examine the work.
They will determine whether 1t will be
profitable to attempt the completion of
the canal. The excavation, since work
was resumed, amounts to 1,S5O,000 GU
bic metres, or 100000 cubic yards. In
addition to this, the construction of
a deep water harbor has been begun
at La Buca, the Pacific end Of the
canal, and a great metallic pier is be-
ing built.
II shall be in Washington several
days. find that Senator Lodge and
some others who are warm supporters
of the Nicaraguan canal proposition
have studied the pan-America project
and are now quite in favor of it. The
Columbian government wants us TO
complete the Panama canal. and even
if we did share the work with France
the results would be very beneficial to
our people,"

of seizure of British and ourselves.
The detailed enforcement Of the regu-
lations has further developed on the
part of the British government a
strange misconception of the true
spirit and intent of the arbitrator"
In this connection Secretary Sherman
blames the British authorities for CIV
ing notice that their government would
not renew the arrangement as to the
sealing of arms.
The next paragraph says that the
tardy action of the British government
in refusing to renew the arrangements
of 1894 led to much trouble and incon-
venience in connection with the patrol
of Behring sea. The complaints of the
British governments against the Sc
we're measures of search resorted to
by American cruisers, the resultant
lengthy correspondence, the various
propositions made by Secretary Olney
and the fact that another season has
been entered upon without settlement
of the question are all commented up
on by Secretary Sherman. In conclu-
sion the secretary says:
THE president therefore cherishes
the hope that even at this late day the
British government may yet yield to
his continued desire, so often express
ed for the conference of the interest
ed powers, and in delivering to Lord
Salisbury copy of this instruction you
will state that the president will hail
with great satisfaction any indication
on the part of Her Majesty's govern
ment of a disposition to agree upon
such conference.

EXCITING RUNAWAY.
Train scares Pair of Unaceustomed
Country Horses.

Train Scares Pair of Unaccustomed
Country Horses.
An incoming Southern Pacific freight
train frightened the horses attached to
the wagon of Mrs. Wanschalp on East
Commerce street last evening about
$3.50 o'clock and a very disastrous rum
away was the result.
Mrs. Wanschap lives in the country
out on the Lavernia road near the
nine-mile post. She had been in the
city trading and was on her way home
She stopped near the track to allow
the train to pass and as the locomotive
came putting by, the unaccustomed
animals took fright, wheeled suddenly
around and ran back down the street
at breakneck speed for about two
blocks, where they struck a telephone
pole in front of the Weekly Advance
office, wrecking the wagon and sprain-
ing Mrs. Wanschap's ankle.
They then continued down the street
little way with the tongue and front
wheels of the wagon until they ran in
to hack, No. %. said to be from Aus
tin and broke one of the back springs.
They were thenastopped without doing
further damage.
