The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1898-03-31

What was probably the largest, heaviest
and most interesting casting made at the
Honolulu Iron Works this year, was
drawn yesterday. Every man about the
place was anxious concerning the job
Spectators still more nervous about the
casting were officials of the Wilder Steam
ship Company. The great weight taken
from the mold which has been full
month in preparation was a piece of ma
chinery for the steamer Kinau, the larg-
est finest and fastest boat of the Wilder
fleet of inter-island packets. Chief En-
gineer Johnson discovered the serious
break in the high pressure cylinder while
the vessel was alongside. Had the Kinau
been at sea there would have been not a
little trouble in running her with the
low pressure cylinder alone. 1t might
be explained that high and low pressure
cylinders mean the double expansion sys-
tenn. The steam is used twice. It's ini-
tial force is applied from the high GA
inch) and it's secondary force from the
low (24-inch) pressure cylinder, with &c.
inch stroke. Mr.. Johnson who has charge
of all the machinery for the company and

without any support in law, justice or
equity, and that it violates the hitherto
cordial relations of the United States
with Nicaragua"
The. report takes issue with the con-
tentioii of Nicaragua that that country
owns both banks of the San Juan River,
calling attention to the fact that Costa
Rica has equal rights since the arbitra-
tion of President Cleveland as the owner
of one bank of the stream. Attention is
called to the fact.
1t is then set forth that Costa Rica's
interests in the canal are as great as
those of Nicaragua land it follows that
the action of both republics is essential
to the assertion of the right of either
to claim forfeiture of the concession.
If Nicaragua claims that the conces-
sions it has granted is forfeited Costa
Rica has the official right to assert that
it is not forfeited"
1t is claimed that the consent of this
country is also necessary to any pro-
ceeding on the part of Nicaragua look
ing to the forfeiture of the concession.

BILL TO INCREASE THE ARMY
introduced Into the House by Repre-
sentative Hull.

Washington, Dec. 1.-Reprcsentative
Hull, Chairman of the House Committee
OH Military Affairs, to-day introduced II
bill increasing the regular army to APP
proximately 100000 men. The bill was
framed at the War Department and
has the approval of the Secretary Of
War. Ii is not the bill framed by
General Miles, as this measure has not
the high rank proposed by the Miles
bill and some of the appointments are
open to officers of the volunteers or from
civil life. 1t provides for Lieutenant
General and what is considered a suffi-
cient increase of majors and brigadiaG
generals to command an ARMY of lOO,-
900 men scattered from Porto Rico to
Manila. The artillery arm is re-organ-
ized separating it into coast and
field artillery but promotion to be by
seniority of the whole arm. y decrease
of the enlisted men is made so that
the arm can be increased by recruits
in case of war TO full strength. The
enlisted strength of an infantry com
pany il not to exceed 145 so that in
ease of war new regiments would have
to be formed, probably all of which
would be volunteer, but the regular
army would make a substantial first
line. The bill provides for the three bat
TALON formation. The staff corps are in
creased about 40 per cent and with the
exception of the adjutant general, ,inspec-
tor general and ordnance department are
opento appointments from the volunteer
70 civil life. The most notable change is
in that of the medical department i'll
which provision is made for hospital
corps of 5000 privates with the neces-
sary non-commissioned officers with a
largely increased number Of surgeons
and assistant surgeons. All officers and
men serving in the sub-trOpical coun-
tries are 10 have an increase of % pei
cent in pay. Under the immediate con-
troll of the President, inhabitants of the
new countries may be enlisted i'll the
organizations there serving.
The bill gives n total of fourteen regi-
ments of artillery, twelve of cavalry
ad thirty of infantry.

ARMED CUBANs RIoToUs.
The American Authorities Acted With
Promptness.

Santiago de Cuba Dec. To-day is
the anniversary of the death of General
Antonio Maceo and has been celebrated
among the Cubans in Santiago. a me
mortal service was held this morning
in the cathedral hch was crowded.
Considerable annoyance was OCCASION
ed to the United States authorities by
the fact that some seventy-fve men,
Cubans, marched the entire length OF
st. Thomas street, armed with rifles and
machetes, although all Cubans are we'll
aware that such conduct is strictly
against the regulations, armed bodies
other than United States troops not be-
ing allowed.
The offenders in question did not ask
permission to march armed, and their
intention was not made known to the
American authorities. Indeed the ca
thedral had been reached by the parad-
ers before the fact was reported to head
quarters.
Colonel Beacon, who is in command
here during the absence of General
Wood, Immediately called upon the may
or regarding the affair, and was by him
referred to ColonelGarcia, who sent an
orderly directing the appearance of the
offenders at headquarters. Meanwhile
the armed squad had fired three volleys,
many using ball cartridges, which bull
lets striking the upper portions of the
cathedral caused the bell ringers to
fee from their post.
In less than Il quarter of an hour an
officer from the Fifth immune regiment
arrived AT headquarters with message
from Colonel Sergeant stating that sew
eral bullets had struck his tent at diff
ferent points, and asking information rs
to the cause.
Colonel Beacon ordered Colonel Garcia
not to allow his men to attend the even
ing procession armed. The sole reason
~why the offenders were not arrested
was that they were within the cathedral
limits ut the time.
\ band of Cubans on horseback en-
tered the premises of the Spanish club
here this evening and broke several
lamps with their machetes.
The United States authorities acted
promptly. As a result of the outrage
at least half the police force will be dis
charged.
