JUST TWO MONTHS
Since War Broke Out-What Has Been
Done in That Time.

Washington, June 21.-Two months
ago to-day war broke cut. Nearly 49,
0O0 United States troops are lying of
Santiago; cable communication is es-
tablished in Cuba; Cuban territory in
the possession Of United States marines
and nearly all of the commercial ports
of Cuba are blockaded; this apart from
Dewey's grand victory at Manila and
the organizing of several army camps.
The administration feel they have a
right to be proud over what has been
accomplished in the short space Of two
months, working with raw material in
both the army and the navy.

Refuse to Allow an American Vessel to
secure Coal and Food at a Chinese Har-
Dor.
New York, June PA special cable
to the Evening Journal from Hong
Kong says
The American supply ship cairo,
which was sent here from Manila by
Admiral Dewey to procure provisions
and other necessaries for the fleet and
which anchored a few miles from here
in Chinese waters, has been compelled
to leave by the Chinese authorities.
1.-THE Chinese notified United States
Consul Wildman, at Hong Kong, to
take the Zafiro out Of the jurisdiction
of the emperor at once, and refused to
allow her even the customary "a hours
stay, or pound of coal or provisions.
"She has accordingly been moved,
and now is in British waters at Hong
Kong The Chinese order is believed
to be due TO the representations of
Spain"
Washington, D. c., June 21.-The
Navy Department is not concerned that
the Chinese had ordered the Zafiro out
without supplies. This unconcern was
due to a conviction that the Charles
ton and three big transports have
reached Manila carrying such supplies
as the American fleet requires. Then,
too, the Zafiro had already been treated
with consideration and had obtained all
the privileges to which she was enti-
tied. The department has heard moth
ing from the admiral since day before
Yesterday. AS the dispatch left Dewey
last Thursday 1t could bring no news
of the arrival of the transports. 1t did
bring news of the great success at
tending the insurgents. The officials
see no cause for experimenting a dis
turbance of the plans Of Gen. Merritt,
when he assumes military command.

HOUSE.

The Attorney-General presented a
report of investigation into the pre-
vious ownership of Makiki Reserve
where it is proposed a park shall be
created. The report showed the undis-
puted title of the Government to the
land since 1S48, and was laid on the
table to be considered with the bill
on parks at Kaliu and Makiki.
Rep. Loebenstein presented the fol-
lowing report of the Committee on
Public Lands on House bill 81, relat-
ing to the addition of a new section in
the Land Act of 1895, dealing with the
right of possession of any public lands:
Your committee finds that the pro-
visions of the bill are intended to give
holders of Public Lands except wet
lands, under a general lease, the right
to obtain a land patent to any portion
of such leased premises not exceeding
600 acres,-upOn surrender of the ORR
ginal lease, and upon complying with
all the conditions specified in the orr
ginal act to the satisfaction and con-
sent of the Commissioners of Public
Lands and with the approval of the
Executive Council.
"A summary of the leases of ahu-
puaas alone ON the several Islands of
the group, shows the same to amount
to more than 900 900 acres, the leases
running from 8 to 81 years. Of this
total area, while there is considerable
that may be adapted for mere pastoral
or minor agricultural purpOses,-a
large amount is we'll adapted to coffee
culture and development Many of
these lands, more particularly those
under long terms of lease, are held at
mere nominal rental figures, grossly
incOmmensurate to the intrinsic value,
frequently but a limited area is occu-
pied, the larger portion remaining in
sert, undeveloped, and unpr0ductive.
The keen inquiry for coffee and other
lands since carrying into operation
the Land Act of 1895-the great in
crease in numbers of those who have
blocked into this country since that
time, men Of means and industry seek
ing to avail themselves of the liberal
terms of our Land Laws has greatly
reduced the available acreage of the
Public Lands.
THE records of the Commission of
Public Lands show that in a number
of instance. the holders of leases would
have been willing to surrender the
same on some such basis as provided
for in this act. notable instances being
those Of Waiakea. containing $4,000
acres, and of PiihOnua, containing 81
600 acres, the rental from the one
amounting to but $4,000 per annum.
And from PiihOnua but $500 per an
mum. The provision in the Land Act
of 1895 relative TO surrender of any
lease within six months from the date
when the law became operative was
specially framed to cover the case Of
Ponahawai, a land Of several thousand
acres in HilO hold at that time at
rental figure Of 800 per annum
Through that surrender the Govern
ment was enabled TO subdivide the
remainder and throw it open TO settle
ment, with the result that from 81 TO
$50 per acre was realized from the
sale, and a section of great agricultu-
raj resources brought into the arena
of development.
should this bill become law, there is !
no doubt that the opportunity given
