HE TAKES INSTRUCTIONS TO
HAWAII.
Oath to be Administered all Over the
Big Island at Noon on Friday Next
to, Conform With New Conditions.

Deputy Marshal Hitchcock left on
the Mauna Loa for Hawaii this morn
ing on a mission of considerable inn
portance. He carries with him copies
of the oath of allegiance to the Unit
ed States and printed Instructions in
English and Hawaiian to be delivered
to each Office holder on the Big Is
land prior to Friday noon.
The deputy marshal was seen at
the steamer prior to departure, and
while admitting that he was going to
Hawaii on business of importance pos
itively declined to divulge it's nature.
The Star learns, however, that the
Mauna Loa will make a stop at Ka-
waihae, where the deputy marshal
will take a horse and make the best
of his way to Hilo, interviewing every
government employe on the road.
From Hilo he will work his way round
the Island to Punaluu and from there
by way of the Volcano back to Hilo
Each Office holder on the Island is
to be required to take the oath of al
legiance to the United States at noon
on Friday or as soon thereafter as is
possible. The oath will be admins
tered by the judges or district magis-
Lrates wherever convenient, otherwise
by the deputy sheriffs. Marshal Hitch
cocks business is to see that every
body takes the oath and has no eX-
cuse for not doing so. The instruc-
tions furnished detail their conduct
afterwards, and their commissions
signed by the Acting Governor will
follow as soon after Friday as they
can be made out
The deputy marshal has no special
commission in this matter nor has he
yet taken the oath to the United
States. He will do that on Friday at
noon wherever he happens to be. At
any event he has some good hard rid
ing before him to accomplish his mis-
sion

ARMY PROVISIONS.

One of the busiest men in the Unit
ed States at the present time is Lieu
tenant Colonel Amos S. Kimball, to
whose discretion and good judgment
have been entrusted the provisioning
and equipping of the United States
army. 1t is Colonel Kimball's duty to
inspect and buy all sorts of supplies
that an army may need, from govern
ment mules and uniforms to hospital
ships. A few days ago Colonel Kim
ball drew his check for $45O,OOO to
pay for the hospital ship Relief. He
has purchased nearly $4,000, 900 worth
of supplies for the government up to
date.
1t is all very well drawing checks
and spending the money, but what the
boys in blue would like is to have
food that Uncle Sam has paid for.
There must be a deal of sweating be-
fore the $2,OOO,0OO of provisions gets
to the boys

PRINCE HENRY,S VERSION.

BERLIN, July 27.-A dispatch from
Shanghai today says an official state
ment from Prince Henry of Prussia
in regard to the Irene incident at
Subig Bay, Philippine Islands, has
been published in the Ost Asiatische
Lloyd. 1t says the Irene went to Su-
big Bay to take off some Spanish
women and children who were in dis
tress. At Isla Grande the German
warship happened to meet a steamer
belonging to the insurgents, which
left without difficulty arising. On re-
turning the Irene met outside Manila
Bay two United States ships which
did not speak her. In conclusion the
statement sets forth that the removal
of the women and children was effect
ed "from motives of humanity and
with strict observance of the rules of
neutrality"

MIR. THURsToN's POLICY.

Lorrin A. Thurston, answering a
question as to his intentions in regard
to the paper of which he has lately
acquired the control, said "It is not
my present intention of making any
change whatever in any department
of the business. As to the policy of
the paper, cannot tell what changes
will be made, or whether any will be
made at all. When the political fu-
ture of this country has been deter
mined and we know what form of
government we are to have, then
may make some changes, but at pres
ent | can see nothing on which to
formulate any policy for the paper.
There is nothing to do but jog along
as we are doing and wait for events
to crystalize."

FIFTEEN MINUTES GLORY
MORE CHANGES IN FLAG RAISING
PROGRAM.
Public will Have Free Use of the
Seats-Details of the Flag Raising
The Pole has Been Tested.

At the Foreign Office it was given
out this morning that a change had
been made in arrangements for seat
ing the public on Friday. No tickets
will be issued to the grounds and
whatever seats are not officially occu-
pied will be open to the first comers.
OF course some provision will have to
be made for the families of cabinet
ministers, prominent officials and the
personal friends of the powers that be
but the great bulk of the people COM
prised in the term general public, :"
will have to rustic for a seat or stand
if they are lucky enough to get stand
ing room.
But it will be only for fifteen min
utes or less, as that is the limit plac-
ed on the time needed to carry out
the program, which it is said will
consist of the playing of Hawaii POnoi
by the band, saluting the Hawaiian
flag with 21 guns by the Philadelphia
battery and the hauling down of the
flag. President McKinley's proclama-
tion will be read, Minister Sewall will
take his oath as acting governor, the
Stars and Stripes will be run up and
saluted. Official etiquette will have
to be satisfied and the public will
have seen one flag come down and
another go up.
Lieutenant Winterhalter and Super
intendent of Public Works Rowell
were on the cupola of the building
this morning to examine the condition
of the flag pole 1t was tested with
a large Hawaiian flag for some min
utes. Instead of raising the flag from
the ground as was at first intended,
the work will be done from the tow
er in the usual way. The phosphar
bronze rope brought down by Admi-
raj Miller will be cut in two and doub-
lie halyards made, one for the Ha-
waiian flag and the other for the
American. The flags will be raised
and lowered by signals from below.

MONEY ORDER BUSINESS
FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC ORDERS
ABOUT EQUAL.
Rapidly Increasing Business of This
Branch of the Postal Service-Fig-
ures of Last Business Period.

The rapid increase in the money or
der branch of the postal service is
on part with the general increase of
business in the country, and in
round numbers the volume of bust
ness amounts to about So 100000 per
year.
In the last biennial period the num-
Der of money orders issued in the Is
lands was 6S,OSO. the aggregate value
being 81 1,055, ,421 ~. Very little of this
money was sent out of the country.
In fact the 9,932 foreign orders issued
only called for Sl19,SSG.S3, of which
$50, ,S22.35 went to the United States.
SIP. .124.S6 to the United Kingdom,
S3,292.7O to Portugal, $7,326.3s to Ger
many and $3,31S.S5 to Canada.
The money orders paid in the Is
lands during the same period were
57,513, aggregating $1,s23,773.7S, of
which 1,461, aggregating $26,621.92,
were foreign orders.
The above figures show that the
great bulk of the money order bust
ness is confined to inter-island chan
nels, and that less than $4,000 a
year is sent out of the country by this
means, certainly very gratifying
showing.
On the above volume of business the
postal authorities collected $16,61S.17
in fees. The commissions received
from foreign countries amounted to
S137.52, and the commissions paid to
$690.16. The premiums paid on eX-
change remitted to foreign countries
in settlement of balances amounted
to SS90.S1

THE ANNEXATION CLUB.
Executive Committee to Hold Meet
ing This Afternoon.

a meeting of the Executive commit
tee of the Annexation Club has been
called for o'clock this afternoon to
take some action with regard to the
coming celebration. 1t is felt that

appropriate manner, and several sug-
gestions to that end will be consid-
cred this afternoon. One plan is to
hire every band in the city and have
the members of the club get up a jol-
LITIGATION of their own, one Which will
not be official in it's nature.

towards Diamond Head have been
since examined and it is said one of
them was chosen. Nothing definite
could be ascertained and it is under
