New York. November 23.-There was
no change of Importance in the cotton
market today. Early Liverpool cables
were a shade easier. but. later, re-
covered this slight loss. Our market
opened at unchanged prices. The fluc-
fined to the narrow range Of 3 points.
January opened at 5.71. the highest
price Of the day, declined to 5.6s, rallied
to 571 and closed at $40 to 5.71, with
the tone of the market steady. The re-
ceipts today were the largest on record.
There seems little encouragement to
buy at the moment, but we consider
short sales dangerous.

THE CHINESE HOSPITAL.

Yesterday brought forth great
event for the Chinese colony of
Honolulu and the whole group.
1t was an event that reflected
much honor on the wealthy Chin
ese of this city, and one in which
all humane hearts cannot but re-
joice. Practical regard for suffer
ing humanity is a criterion of
civilization. and the Chinese
evince that noteworthily by pro-
viding a hospital for their own
sick and injured folk. Their
leaders on the occasion of the in
stitution's formal opening fifty
characterized the starting of the
enterprise as a step onward and
upward. Their clear admission
that western ways are worthy of
adoption by their conservative
race, il it were only in this one
respect OF care for the sick and
suffering, goes some way in prov
ing that if the Chinese are slow to
change they are far from being of
stagnant mind. Those Of other
nationalities who were present at
the ceremonies in question would
have noticed other evidences in
the same line. Most of the young
er men of the Chinese there, III
particular those brought up and
educated here, were dressed in
the European style. The Chinese
mode is much the more artistic,
prettier and more comfortable,
and the change must be taken as
a real sacrifice for the sake of
coming so much nearer into har-
mony with those nationalities
from whom they have obtained
real benefits, compared with which
the mere matter of clothes sinks
into insignifcance. What was
most important OF all, in connec-
ton with the event, was beautifully
referred to by Mr.Damon. That is,
the advance toward the grand
ideal, to which all true civilization
is tending, of human brotherhood.

Mr.. J. .. CARTER, Mgr, Star

Dear sir:-Iu behalf of the

before you, and the Honolulu
Baseball League, a proposition
for consideration as found below
That after most successful

Ross and Akina as we'll as other
Mauiites, as, Chas. Chilling

permission to enter in the league
as a Maui team; to represent
that Island in the great race for
baseball honors.
Below will be found the follow
ing conclusions arrived at:
(D. That an organization of
Maui team take place to enter the
II. b. b. League.
81. That the players consist
of the old players of the Wailuku

ers to complete the ten.
(0. That we will only join the
league on one condition, and this
Is, reasonable terms, as:
We ask for one-half of the gate
receipts to pay our expens es with.
az. That we are willing to
have the schedule arranged i'll this
manner: That the teams of Efo-
nolulu play game each among
themselves, then we will 60 down

Respectfully yours,

Acting for Maui.

Acting Tor Maui.
The statement being made that
the League had no power to make
special terms with any club, that
being matter resting solely with
the Association, on motion of j
A, Thompson the application was
rejected.
The following officers were then

Presidential. M. Whitney Jr.
Vice President--Arthur Coyne.

G. Wilder Jr.
III. M. Whitney was elected
official umpire for the season
with power to appoint substitutes
and assistants.
At this Juncture Colonel Fisher
was called away and Vice presi-
dent Coyne officiated in the chair
for the balance of the meeting.
On motion III. M. Whitney Jr.
was appointed a committee of one
to confer with the officers of the
Hawaiian Baseball Association
and arrange terms, percentage of
games, etc., for the season, the
rates agreed on not to be less than
those of last year.

Ter second to none in the country
1.-THE L. 81, and if anyone can
show a wheel which has travelled
as many miles as mine has with
as little expense as mi1e | would
very much like to see it. Be-
sides changing the gear from GA

wheel has been fifty cents. That

don't you? l am very much afraid
that my tires, the same ones l got
on the machine, will not last me
through the next season. They
are almost worn through all over.
1t will cost me from $40 to SIS

Legitimate wear l never knew a
pair of tires to wear as long and
as we'll as these have, considering
the amount of travel. When you
consider that they have travelled
as far as from Cleveland, o., to
Honolulu, over all sorts of roads
and paths, you will see that they
must needs wear some"
The above opinion you will
find to be the opinion of about
every rider of Rambler in this
city, and there are a lot of Ramb-
Ter riders here. Our trouble has
been to get enough wheels, the
makers not realizing that we want
'97 stock before the snow has
melted in their country. BY the
Australia this week we received 7
ladies' wheels, and six of them we
have sold. BY the Miowera mail
we ordered 20 Ramblers and by
this weeks mail fare ordering 5
more, and we have orders in for 2
Racers, so by return Australia we
will have ~ Ramblers, and in fut-
ure we do not propose to lose the
sale OF any wheels by not having
them on hand. Remember that
the Rambler is fitted with the only
tire that has proved entirely salts
factory in this country, the great
sc. & j." There are limitations to
this tire to be found here, but if
you don't find it out when you buy
them, you will after you have used
them a while, to your sorrow. The

only at the Rambler Agency, and
there you can get the right artic lie,

Camp Culberson consists of something
like 700 sleeping tents. IS cooking tents and
about the same number of mess tents or
pavilions, in which the meals are served to
the different companies. A corps of expert
men Of the regular army, stationed at Fort
Sam Houston, pitched the tents, which was
no small task. 1t required twenty men ten
days to arrange the camp and erect all the
tents for the Texas troops alone. OF course
the regulars attended to their own camp
as it suited them, and the visiting COM
panies have been allotted to arrange their
camping facilities to please themselves, so
far as was practicable.
The camp extends from the foot of a
slope just east of what is known the old
Machinery Hail. in which a restaurant is
located, entirely around the spacious fair
grounds, embracing all the timber portion
thereof and extending through the south
west gate into the heavy timber that is a
feature of Riverside Park. Most of the
camp Is beautifully shaded by immense
pecan trees and a large growth of oak and
mesquite, and for the accommodation of
the visiting troops large platforms have
been erected at convenient places, where
the river is quite deep and where the SOL
der boys avail themselves daily of the re-
freshment offered by river bath.
The Morton Cadets have mess tent, and
the youngsters are living in true army
style.
Three times daily the command Fall in
for mess" is given in the company street,
and time is lost in oDeying. Each pla-
toon, in charge of a lieutenant, is marched
to the mess tent, where the boys are seat
ed by command, hut are permitted to eat
