Used Lots of Water.

The drinking water on the transports
was very unsatisfactory by the time
the expedition had reached Honolulu.
The fluid had been placed in new
reservoirs and tanks and had a foreign
flavor that was not at all relished.
Every ship took all the fresh water
from the port that could be stored.
Andrew Brown, superintendent of the
water works here knew all of the
steamer chief engineers in the expedi-
ton and rendered them valuable as
sistance He figures that the three
ships took on here no less than 4,00O,-
900 gallons of fresh water. All of this
was from the artesian wells. The val
ley connections were shut off for three
days and the pumps at Makiki and at
the corner of Alapai and Beretania
were run day and night.

Police Notes.
SeCretaTy

The arrests reported at the police
station Yesterday were not numerous.
The following are the most worthy Of
note:

Three japanese for assault with a
deadly weapon. These are of the samo
crowd as the ones arrested Sunday

been released on bail.

procured so that the sermon could pro
ceed. In the meantime the choir sang

NOT NEUTRAL.
The Reply That Will Be Made to
SDain'S Consul.


Spain's Consul.
The formal protest made to this
Government by H. Renjes, Esq, Con
sui for Spain, is brief, cOuched in the
careful terms of the diplomats, and as
remarked by man well up in the af-
fairs of the Hawaiian Republic, quite
proper" 1t is more than likely that all
the correspondence will be read in the
Senate this morning. Minister Of
Foreign Affairs Cooper yesterday pre-
pared and sent this Governments re-
ply to Consul Renjes. The answer is
very concise, clear and of few words.
1t recites that this Republic has failed
to make a declaration of neutrality
and that its present attitude is due to
the close relations which have so long
been maintained with the United
States. There is cited the fact that
proffer of aid has been made some time
since to the United States.
