MAN OF SCIENCE ARRIVES.
DIR. PRITCHETT OF THE COAST
GEODETIC SURVEY.
Comes to Make Preliminary Investi-
CATION of the New Territory for the
Coast Survey Office.

DIR. Henry S. Pritchett, superinten-
dent of the United States coast and
geodetic survey, arrived on the
Doric. He comes under instructions
from the Secretary of the Treasury
to look after the condition of the sur
veys of the Islands. The Washington
office intends to take hold where the
Hawaiian survey office leaves off. 1t
is deemed very important by the
Washington Authorities to have COM
plete and reliable charts of the waters
around the Islands, as they will be
far more used henceforth, owing to
the improved trade relations conse-
quent on annexation. Hence the Sc
lection of DR.. Pritchett and the prob
able dispatch of the coast survey stea-
mer Patterson to these Islands.
DR.. Pritchett is young man to
hold the position of the coast survey
superintendency, but he has disting
uished record as a scientist Born in
Fayette, Mo-, in April, 1857, he was
educated in the institute founded at
GLASGOW in that state, by his father,
and known as Pritchett College. In
1876 he moved to Washington, ID. c.,
and continued his astronomical stud
les and mathematical studies under
Professor Asaph Hale of the Naval
Observatory. In 1881 he was appoint
ed professor of astronomy in Wash
ington University, at st. Louis, and
remained there until his appointment
by President Mckinley to the super
tendency of the coast and geodetic
survey, a position which sought him
as man of mark in his profession.
In the astronomical field, in addi-
tion to his routine duties, he did a
vast amount of work in both theoret-
ical and practical lines, among his
published papers being one of the
determination of the mass of Mars,
another on the rotation of Jupiter, al
so discussion of eclipse of the satel-
/ lites of Saturn, and many papers on
observation of double stars.
In geodetic work DR.. Pritchett had
a fine record before being appointed
to his present position. In 1889 he
was a member of the transit of We
nus party that went to Auckland
New Zealand and assisted in the deter.
mination of gravity with the famous
Koter pendulums in australia, Singa.
pore and Japan. In 1891 he was elec-
| ted president of the st. Louis Acade.
my of Science. In 1894 he visited Eu-
rope, and while in Munich the univer.
sity of the city, in recognition of his
scientific attainments and reputation
honored him by comforting upon him
the degree of "doctor of philosophy
DIR. Pritchett, though a compare.
lively young man, is an old traveller
having visited Europe and the Orient
and is now for the second time in the
Hawaiian Islands, where in all prob
ability the coast and geodetic survey
of the United States will be extended
under his direction.

CUBANS TO DISRAND.

WASHINGTON, August 13.-Presi-
dent Mckinley will take his first step
in the Cuban problem almost imme-
diately by asking General Garcia and
General Gomez to disband the Cuban
army and to send the soldiers to their
homes to begin work on the planta-
tions. This will be the real test of
the Cubans' faith in the United States.
If Garcia and Gomez comply with this
request they will be assured that they
will be given good places under the
new Cuban government. If they re-
fuse, a different fate awaits them.
WASHINGTON, August lathe
War Department has been advised
through the Cuban Junta that the Gu
ban insurgents will accept the terms
of the peace protocol between the
United States and Spain and that all
hostilities will cease on their part.

STEAMER LINE TO SEATTLE
CITY OF COLUMBIA THE FIRST OF
THE FLEET.
Enterprise has the Backing and the
Prestige of James j. Hill and the
Great Northern Railroad.

SEATTLE, August 11.-Arrange-
ments have been made to place the
steamer City of Columbia on the
route between Seattle and Hawaii on
a twenty-five day schedule, beginning
August 25th. The company that will
operate this steamer is known as the
Seattle-Honolulu Steamship Line. The
owners are the Scandinavan-Ame
Bank of Seattle, represented by John
p. jacobson of Seattle and Captain
Russell Colegrove of Washington City.
1t was practically decided to estab-
lish this line on Saturday last after
a conference between Captain Cole
grove and President James j. Hill of
the Great Northern Railroad he be-
ing in the city at that time. All the
prestige of the railroad company will
be eXerted in behalf of the new line.
The straight through passenger fare
from New York to Honolulu via Sc
attic has been fixed at 800 for first
class and S62 second class. The fare
from Seattle to Honolulu on the City
of Columbia win be as follows: SIS
first class, S37 second class and S25
deck passage.
The company has assurances from
the postoflice department that a mail
contract will be entered into. 1t is
further contemplated securing sis
ter ship, so as to make the run be-
tween Seattle and Honolulu every II
days. Although only announced this
morning by evening the new line had
its cargo and passenger list filled for
the first trip.
The City of Columbia was brought
around the Horn from New York to
go on the st. Michael run. Accidents
! and bad management resulted in tie
ing up the steamer shortly after arriv-
ing in this port. She was recently or
dered sold and went for 100000 being
bought in by Captain Colegrove. Since
then 100000 has been expended in re-
pairs and she is now rated by Lloyd's
agents as Al for five years.

NEW STEAMER SCHEDULE
JAPANESE COMPANY JOINS THE
PACIFIC NAIL.
Contributes Three New Vessels to the
Combination-Three Sailings a
Month from Here Each Way.

A new joint schedule has just been
issued by the Pacific Mail, the Occi-
dental & Oriental and the Toyo Kisen
Kabushiki Kaisha, or Oriental Steam
ship companies. The latter company
is what is known as the Asano line,
and contributes three steamships to
the schedule. These are the Nippon

Maru. The Pacific Mail Company's
vessels in the schedule are the Glen
farg, which has already been here, the
Glengyle, due August 20, from the
Orient; the Aztec, and two vessels yet
to be designated.
The joint schedule provides for the
following arrivals from the coast:

STILL At THE RACE TRACK,

The Honolulu garrison is still
camped at the race track, and instead
of taking tents down yesterday and
moving as stated in a morning paper,
more tents were being put up. There
is no present intention of moving the
camp. Visitors will find it hard work
to get within the line of sentries es-
tablished, as for the present the strict
est discipline is maintained. When
the camp has been put in thorough
order, however, and the men get
their white suits and tent apart
ments up, military discipline will
probably be relaxed to the extent of
allowing the men to receive their
friends, and the camp thrown open
for public inspection at stated times.

GEORGE ASHLEY RESIGNS
TO BECOME PAYING TELLER OF
THE BISHOP BANK.
The Position of Registrar of Accounts
Offered to George Z. Smithies, who
Declines to Accept 1t.

w. George Ashley, who has been
registrar of accounts since the early
part of 1894, has resigned his office,
and is now taking a vacation. Mr.
Ashley resolved upon this course as
soon as the news of annexation was
received, intending to go into busi-
ness for himself. Mr.. Damon, how
ever, heard of his intention and at
once offered him the position of pay
ing teller in the banking house of
Bishop d Co., which he accepted.
''The resignation came i'm the ma
ture of a surprise to me" said Min
ster Damon this morning. "Mr.
Ashley gave as his reasons the pre-
seriousness of his present position,
on account of the recent political
change, and his desire TO enter into
business on his own account with the
view to bettering himself financially.
In the years that he has been associ-
ated with men in the Finance Depart
ment | have learned to appreciate Mr..
Ashley's business ability. He possess
ses remarkable faculty of systema-
tizing everything in his charge and
there are few better accountants in
the islands. After consulting with
Colonel Fisher it was decided to ask
Mr. Ashley to forego his own plans
and accept the position of paying tel
Ter in the bank. Our negotiations
were successful and / am happy to
say that Mr.. Ashley will be found be-
hind the bank counter on the 1st of
the month Mr. Bon, who holds that
position now. will be made inspector.
This is a position peculiar to English
banks and the duties can hardly be
defined. He will have charge of all
the pass books and win be expected
to supervise great many of the de-
tails
"Who is to succeed Mr.. Ashley?"
was asked.
"That is undecided at present. The
position was offered to George f.
Smthies, who held it previously to
Mr.. Ashley, but he declined to ac-
cept It, | have another man in view
now but the matter is undecided"
