HONOLULU, Sept. 23.-WhiIe the Phila- delphia was returning from her practice cruise day before yesterday fire was dis covered in one of her coal bunkers when off Waianae. Immediately orders were given and the work of eXtinguishing 1t began. The fire had not much headway and about an hours work made 1t cer- tain that all was we'll again.
 The fire, it is understood, was discov- cred by means of the thermostats placed in different parts of the vessel to indicate and signal when an undue temperature exists anywhere.
 After the arrival of the flagship in port the bunker in which the fire broke out was entirely emptied and thoroughly cleaned. An examination of all the coal bunkers and every part of the ship has been made.
 made so little headway that only about a ton of coal was burned. No cause Tor the fire is known, but 1t IS supposed to have been from spontaneous combustion.

FUTURE GOVERNMENT IF THE ISLANDS
 IF HAWAII REMAINS U BE OE EIERM|NED

abusing the President and his Cabinet
 for not placing before the Hawaiian
 Commission the views entertained py the Government on behalf or the coun-
 try as to our future form Of govern ment. How can they do so? MT. Dole cannot be one moment chief executive of the Hawaiian Cabinet and the next Mr. McKinley's commissioner, and furthermore who and what influence do the Cabinet represent? Until an nexation was accomplished they had political following, but that has gone over almost bodily into the SeWaIl camp They cannot openly advocate the plans suggested by either the plant CTS or the Chamber of Commerce for that would create disruption, and they cannot advocate a peoples policy for there Is none. They are wise to be reticent and to content themselves with furnishing the commission with sta tistical information from their bureau and present their views as indi- Yiduals and not as rulers. This na- turaIly places considerable power in the hands of Dole and Frear, but for tunately they both bear the character of being trustful for the future inter ests of the country rather than anxious for personal preferment.
 The labor problem Is engaging the serious study of all and 1t is felt that some concessions must be made for year or two to our sugar, rice and cof- fee industries. It is estimated that at least 10000 more Asiatics will be re- quired to carry on these industries un- til a different class of labor can be i'm ported on the share system. The Chi nese whose three-year contracts have expired are gradually being taken on as day laborers at the improved rate of $16 month and the planters are doing their best to improve the condition of their laborers and preventing ill-treat- ment. The Japanese on the other is lands have commenced suits to test the constitutionality of the labor contract laws and assertions to the coffee lands a re ircrea sing I rIlrn herS

 Committee. Honolulu. Hawaiian Islands. Sept 20. 1898. The people of the United States ought to console the Hawaiians, who are their friends, by ordering Congress to repeal the NewlandS joint resolution and restore the independence of the Hawaiian Islands, according to the method set forth by the above memorial Thus the United States will relieve itself from a grave responsi- bility;, The United States only needs here tained from the Hawaiians themselves by a treaty. The selection may be left to the United States to choose any part she wants on any island. Pearl Harbor may be put in the treaty and place United States Jurisdiction over it at once, and that will settle the only need Of the United States here.
 All the European powers, also Japan, are willing to join with the United States to guarantee Hawaii to be a neutral state

The Eject of Fog.

Accidents due to the observation OF
objects by fog are so common that
scientists are making study OF abb
sorbent power of fog as regards lights
Of all kinds. 1t appears that London
fog absorbs 20.S per cent of the light
from an incandescent burner. while the
ordinary gas flame loses but Ill per
cent. The incandescent light contains
more blue, and this is readily absorbed
by the fog. Red lights are much more
penetrative than blue, and as the gas
light contains far more red than the
electric. it is much more valuable as
light for use in very heavy fogs. 1t
is a fact familiar to every one that
when the sun shows through mist, 1t
is Of deep red color. This is ac-
counted for by the fact that the blue
rays are entirely absorbed, leaving
only the red with its much more power
full quality of penetration.
