COAST MERCHANT.
John C. Nobmann in Honolulu
for Few Days.

]. c. Nobmann, whose name is very
well known here and who is making
his third visit to Honolulu, came down
by the Australia and will return by the
same boat. Mr.. Nobmann was here
last about two years ago and remarks
that the town has greatly improved
since that time. He has been ship
ping groceries and wines to Honolulu
for many years and is a commercial
interest" anneXationist. Mr.. Nobmann
is one of the solid citizens when at
home in San Francisco. He was for
nine years president of the association
of retail grocers and has just been
chosen as one of the freeholderS to
frame a new charter for the city of
San Francisco. The campaign was a
very warm one and Mr. Nobmann was
one of the men on the ticket that "de
push" was against, but his personality
carried him through. He is here on
business as well as to have a breathing
spell.
Mr. Nobmann said yesterday that he
would like to submit some data on
California wine when the product was
under legislative fire. His especial
point is that the low alcoholic strength
required here for duty concession is
reached only by adulteration which
both lowers the quality of the wine
and makes it more costly.

The outlook for annexation now
seems To he as good as the friends of
the Hawaiian measure could wish. 1t
is admitted by the sugar trust lobby
that the joint resolution will pass the
Senate and pubiic report says That
Speaker l,reu will not put obstacles
before it in the House. His principal
lieutenants, Mr.. Dingley of Maine and
Mr.. Henderson of Iowa, are now in
favor of letting Hawaii in, and that
covers the real strength of the sup
posed Republican opposition. Barring
accidents Hawaii ought to find its
way under the flag within three
weeks. The road is apparently clear
with the whole power of the admins
tration ready to keep it so.
The sugar trust organs, with a dis
position to take the last ditch. declare
that the Texas precedent does not jus
tify the course proposed. But what
justified the Texas precedent? Con
gress, which made the one out of the
raw materials, can easily form anoth-
er. providing the federal constitution
does not stand in the way. That is, if
the old prccedents do not answer. it
can create new ones for future use
in similar cNigencicS. So far as the
Constitution goes it gives Congress the
right without geographical restriction
to admit new states" 1t does not
say whether such state shall be in
one locality or another. If it did
Alaska might be barred out in future.
The simple issue is. does Congress
choose to regard Hawaii as desir-
able addition to the galaxy of states?
If it does there is nothing in the Con-
stitution to limit its power to take the
group. whether by conquest. purchase
or as gift
Muct stress is laid by the sugar
trust organs upon the fact that the
Texas admission was preceded by =
vote of the people. What people?
Was any voting done by aborigines
or by MeXicans who had refused to
take the oath of ALLEGIANCE to the
then republic of Texas? Not so. The
ballot was confined to the citizens of
the Republic. mostly tilibusters ana
Indian lighters lately from the Ame-
rican border. It remains for the site
lllers for precedent to point out why
the citizens of the Republic of Hawaii
who have built up civilization there
and created fve-siNth of the taxable
property. should not monopolize the
island voting power upOn annexation.

New York World
1. Santiago is 500 miles from Key
West by water. 1t is 500 miles from
Havana by land, without railroad or
other means of transportation. But for
the fact that poor Cervera's fleet, driven
from Cape Nerd by the neutrality laws,
was forced to seek refuge there, Santia-
so would have cut no figure in the war.
>. Havana is only eighty-sx miles
from Key West. 1t is the capital of the
island, the seat of Spain's strength in
Cuba, the centre of every military en-
terprise and Of all political power.
The hosting of the American flag over
MORO Castle would have a greater
moral effect in Spain and throughout
Europe than the Oyerrunning by our
troops of all the rest of the island.
3. Ceyera's fleet is reduced accord
ing to the latest reports, to three or
four effective ships, and an equal number
OF small craft. These are bottled and
cOrkcd securely in the harbOr.
Our united fleet of seventy ships is
surely not required for blockade duty or
to guard the narrow and INSTRUCTED
channel into Santiago. We have fight
ing ships and cruisers enough to bonn
bard Havana, to complete the work so
fooishly stopped at San Juan, or even
to attack the Canaries and Cadiz itself.
Now that Santiago has been besieged
and bombarded it must be taken. Samp-
son could have taken it many days ago,
according to his own statement to the

been reinforced with 10000 troops.
These troops, delayed by foolish fears

vital blow at Spanish dominion in this

WHAT OTHERS SAY.
LETTERS FAILURE.
Mail and Express.

Mail and Express.
Another wheat deal has ended disas-
trously and unexpectedly for the prime
mover. Yesterday Joseph Letters mann
moth operations came to an end. On
May 81, it was announced that proht
had been netted of from SJ000,OOO to
$I,O00000. In the last thirteen days
this has been lost and at least S3,OOO,-
600 more. The cornering of food pro-
ducts has been Il favOrite method Of spec
ulation in Chicago for the past twenty
years, in spite OF the fact that only one
operation of magnitude was ever sue
cessful. Ten years ago Il. i. Hutchin-
son, the "Old Hutch of history, corn
cred September wheat, putting the price
up to 81 a bushel and realizing a for
tune from the transaction. Later, how
ever, he lost his money. and when he
died few years ago he was practically
penniess.
James II. Keene, now of Wall street
but once of San Francisco, went to Chi
cago twenty years ago with S20OO,OOO
with which he attempted to buy all the
wheat in the world. In 1879 he came to
New York rich in experience, but poor
in most everything else. His present
fortune was not made in wheat. 1t
was to corner the wheat market that
Harper looted the Fidelity Bank of Gin
cinnati in 1887. July wheat wrecked
him and he dragged down with him his
bank, his brokers and Il host of contid-
ing friends. He was recently pardoned
from the penitentiary.
About the same time a man named
Jones became the leader of the big
-Four" his partners being Cudahy, Ream
and Kent. He too, tried to fix the
prices of wheat in the rest of the world.
Eight years ago he brought his fortune
to this city to increase the scope of his
efforts. He died moneyless two years
ago.
Mr. Letter is young and his father is
4 multi-millionaire. There is hope for
BIN in spite of his failure. Perhaps in
some respects his reverse may prove a
Blessing in disguise.
According to the late Philip WEIGH,
st. Louis man once said Of Shakespeare
after seeing Hamlet" for the first time.
"That man Shakespeare is all right. If
he let's rum alone he'll amount to some
thing some day" If Mr.. Letter let's
wheat alone he may yet be n credit to
himself and a JOY to his friends.
