ANNEXATION COMMISSIONERS At

Are Accompanied by Admiral Miller,

The Annexation Commissioners are

railroad and went as far as Axis mill,
where the Philadelphia's launch was
waiting for them. In the launch they
steamed all over the harbor. Admiral
Miller. who is thoroughly informed
as to Pearl llarbor from a naval point
of view, pointed out the advantages
which originally induced the United
States to secure concessions there for
naval station. Professor Alexander
who is thoroughly conversant with it
from the point of view of geodetic
survey, pointed ont the geological
structure and the improvements that
will be needed to make it the ideal ma
val rendezvous.
No name in connection with the
Hawaiian Islands is better known on
the mainland than Pearl Harbor. It
is not unlikely that since Hawaii is
annexed the harbor and portions of
the shore will be reserved for naval
purposes. At any rate the Commits
sion wants to know something about
Pearl Harbor from actual observation,
and have taken this opportunity to
see it. Much may come to Honolulu

STOCK EXCHANGE EXPECTS TO
OPEN THEN.
Gratifying Success in Listing Stocks
is Being Met With-Preparations are
Being Pushed Rapidly Forward.

The first call of stocks on the new
Stock Exchange will probably take
place next Saturday at 10 o'clock.
Efforts are being made TO get every
thing ready for that time. Colonel
Fisher was appointed this morning to
secure quarters, but if everything
else is in readiness temporary quart
ers can be secured.
The first meeting of the Exchange
since the membership was completed
was held this morning. All but one
of the members was present. The sub
iect of listing stocks occupied much
of the attention of the meeting. So
many of the important plantations
have already indicated a willingness
to list their stocks, that it is hoped
to have them all listed before a call
of stocks for sale or purchase is
made. A committee on stock listing
was appointed, consisting of f. c.
Macfarlane, j. II. Fisher and w. NJ.
Giffard.
A membership committee was ap-
pointed consisting of Harry Armitage,
F. NJ. Lewis and I. F. Lansing. An
investigating committee to act also
as an arbitration committee was ap-
pointed, consisting of j. H. Fisher,
Frank Hustace and George r. Carter.
In every way the prospects for the
Exchange are bright.

ALLIANCE DELAYED.
Did Not Sail Yesterday as was FIX
pected.

The steamship Alliance did not
sail yesterday afternoon as she was
announced to do. She did not get
away until today. The cause of the
postponement was the delay in get
ting the receipts and vouchers for the
cargo brought down from the officers
of the troops who came down on the
Alliance. The change in camp ar
rangements near Diamond Head oc-
cupied the time and attention of the
officers to the delay Of the Alliance.
The steamer takes up quite cargo
chandise and a number of passengers.

San Francisco in ten days from the
time of sailing. The Alliance belongs
to the Johnson G. Locke Company amt

PUNISH THEM.

Editor Star:
II IS TO re hoped that the perpetra-
tors of the outrage upon the Chinese
store keeper in Manoa will be brought
to justice. There seems no doubt that
the guilty men are United States sol
diers. The military authorities should
give every assistance TO bringing these
men to punishment, or should punish
them severely themselves. 1t does
not seem wise thing to allow pri
Yates to roam about with revolvers
in their belts to use in threatening
peaceful citizens. OBSERVER.

ment at the Imperial heater in Butte.
and they are well known in the city. as
formerly they were in the Sutton stock

ley was with John Mcguire.
Yesterday Mrs. Sedley received a long
letter from an eminent law firm Of
New York informing her that by the
will OF her late uncle, w. H.. Whit
more. of New York. she will receive
s25. 900 due on "A life insurance policy
and an interest in his estate which Is
estimated at 81. 900. 900. The attorneys
requested Mrs. Sedley to come To New
York. as her presence il needed I'm the
settlement OF the estate. and she will
leave for the East during the coming
week.
All this is not n dream. either. nor
is IL an advertising trick. Mrs. Sedley
has the papers TO show for IL, and she
was not surprised when she received
news OF her good fortune.
II expected it," said h young heir
ess. II knew that | would come i'm for
a substantial bequest. but | had no
idea il would be so large. but l wish
you wouldn't say anything about IL.
You see I had no intention that IL
should get out. as ] merely e a por-
ton Of the letter at n dinner table
and some Of the girls overheard H..
There will be so many people who will
say IL is another fake that | do not
wish to have anything in the papers
about IL. besides 1t will be a long time
before | will get the money as IL will
take months to settle up the estate, n
come to me.
What will I do with all the money?
Well. ] haven't thought much about II.
The only thing I nav yet thought Of
is that | will buy a nice home some
where i'm some beautiful place and we
will take n rest there. We have been
travelling so long and so much hat 7
will be glad of the opportunity to

II Is estimated that Mrs. Sedley's
portion of the estate will be at least
half a million. Whitmore. her uncle,
