1t is likely the Republican county conven-
tion will not be held before August.
The name of John r. Schooner, present
Clerk of the Courts, is prominently mentioned
in connection with the Congressional nomina-
tion.
There is lively contest brewing among
the factions of the local Democracy over the

Raise he Stars and Stripes
Over the Island.

San Francisco. May 1.-THE Ha-
waiian government will not proclaim
neutrality. This stand is taken on ac-
count of the existing relations between
the United states and Hawaii. The ex-
ecutive considers that a proclamation
of neutrality would be a breach Of
good faith. The government made
known its position on May 9 at a se-
cret session of the senate. 1t is under
stood that the senator's favored the
stand taken by President Dole.
Another important matter consider
ed at the session was the occupation
bill. which. if ratified by the senate. will
allow the United States to raise the
American flag over the island and use
the same as a base of supplies. This
measure is said to have been prepared
with the knowledge of the members of
the senate committee on foreign affairs,
and has had the approval of President
Mckinney. This bin was received by

The Coal Business.

The anthracite coal trade has again relapsed
into the condition of dulness usual at this
season of the year. The New England dealers
are over their recent war scare. Owing to the
unusually large shipments of coal made to
the Eastern markets within the past two
months, there now exists a condition of
stagnation in the wholesale anthracite trade,
and consequently there has been a material
reduction of vessel freight rates within the
past week or two. The new England markets
are now well supplied with coal and there
are large stocks on hand at most all of the
Western lake distributing ports The mining
and carrying compahies have stin untitled a
considerable number of coastwise orders,
which will keep their colleries and barses
moving for some time yet
