Col. Macfarlane states that the San
Francisco people expect to see these
bank shares at 20 to % per cent
premium within six months. He de-
MED that there was any intention of
working in opposition to the other
banks here, but said, on the contrary,
they would work III concert, and he
felt there was field for at least
couple more of good commercial banks,
and that Honolulu needed more bank
ing facilities, for the volume of busi-
ness she was doing.

| great deal of interest was taken i'm
TO-DAY meeting. The two commissions
arrived at the foreign office in carrl-
ages In the rain almost simultaneously
and repairing to the conference room
immediately opened the only business
lbefore them. President Rios OF the
spanish Commission has usually pre-
ceded the presentation of a communica-
ton in writing by verbally summarize
ing it, but today he was silent and nm
usually grave. His face was deeply
lined and he clearly showed the mental
strain under which he was laboring as
he approached the final REIMBURSEMENT
lof Spain's colonial possessions.
Without word, Senor Rios produced
two typewriter sheets and passed
them to the interpreter of the United
States Commission, Mr.. Ferguson, who
read them substantially as cabled, the
|outline of the Spanish document being
furnished later to the correspondent by
ISenor Ojeda. The Commissioners left
the foreign Office Immediately after
prepare the articles of the peace treaty
There was scarcely any conversation
between the American and Spanish
Commissioners after the adjournment.
Among the Americans only the most
grave consideration for their Spanish
colleagues was apparent. The Span
iards seemed to be relieved at having
arrived at the conclusion of long con-
troversy.
Having embodied in the treaty arti-
Commissions will now enter upon
friendly negotiations regarding the
matters suggested in the American ultf-
matum a week ago, matters subsidiary
and incidental to the principal privis-
ions which must form part of the peace
treaty as finally signed. These include
the religious freedom of the Caroline
Islands, as agreed to twelve years ago;
the release Of political prisoners now
held by Spain in connection with the
pines, the taking over of the Island of
Kusaie, or Ualan, on the Coralines, for
a telegraphic and naval station; cable
station rights at other points in Spain's
jurisdiction, and the renewal OF GER
tain treaties previously in force be-
tween the United States and Spain,
which may have lasped or been vitiated
by war.

MADRID, November 2S-The city
this evening is calm. There have been
no disturbances resulting from the an
nouncement of Spain's acceptance Of
the terms of the Americans. The pa
pers, however, publish gloomy articles,
sadly reminding the country that the
day is one long to be remembered as
the CLOSING scene of glori-
Gus colonial history" All agree that
the Government has adopted the only
possible policy, though much bitter
ness is displayed toward the United
States.

Elton as he has been permitted to

Aedand the singer has sung accord

Th ena7of this process isequal-
ity; 6aat Is, sit is equality for the
varioEss kinas of creatures that
have desiaea the same things and
have had The same freedom to at
tain them. The two hands get
equal when thcy have the same
ambitions, the same discipline, and
the same liberty. But when eth
er hand is obstructcd, hampered
or denied, it becomes unlike the
other in power and facility; that
is, unequal to it.
This law of being first and free
and then equal Is universal. Tt
lies at the bottom of the contro-
yersy about the equality of powers,
the equality of actions, and the
equality of privileges and immu-
mites between the sexes. Given
the same desires and the same
freedom, and equality will ineyita-
bly, come. In so far as the like
desire, and the like liberty have
existed, equality has come already.
Which is the better singer? Is it

ever equalled Jenny Lind or Patti.
Which has been the orator? The
man. No woman, as an orator,
has ever equalled Demosthenes or
Sheridan or IngersoIl. But why
does the woman outsing the man?
And why does the man outspcall
the woman? 1t is simply a qucs-
ton of desire, of facility by prac-
ticc, of the hereditary streak by
freedom to do the given thing.
Woman has been free to sing and
man has been free to speak. For
singing the woman has been ap-
plauded, and for speaking she has
been satirized. She has respond
ed to both stimuli. Man has been
applaudcd for speaking and called
effeminate for singing. His char
acter has been formed under both
influences. He has been free
to speak, but not free to sing. She
has been free to sing, but not free
to speak. Hence the hereditary
stleaks in each. Make them equal.

to the stimulus of applause and

freedom and immunity are not
conceded to both equally to do all
proper things freely according to
their desires and ambitions, the
hereditary streaks Of action and
art and privilege will continue tc
prevent equality.

"Naval officials say a serious ir-
regularity occurred at the time
the ships of Admiral Ceryera,s
fleet hauled down their colors and
surrended," says a dispatch. EN-
quiries have brought out the fact
that the breech blocks Of the guns
were thrown overheard, thus disa-
bling the guns and making them
practically worthless, and the
valves by which the ships were
flooded opened after the surren-
der, wnen under the rules of war
fare the enemy had ceased fighting
and had asked for quarter. It Is

the ships at such a time was both
