Oahu Rains Beaten.

Hawaii, even without reckoning with
Hilo, still holds the group palm for
heavy rains. Letters were received
from two points by the Mauna Loa
steamer and from reliable men and
this is what they say:
We have had a little more than
1880 inches of rain here at Hilea, Kau,
between March u and March 20. This
beats all other records"
''Pahala, Kau, March 2Oth.-We have
measured the rainfall carefully this
month and find that since the LIST it has
been 1925 inches. We have not had
anything like that in years.

During all this inclement
weather we have been con-
stantly beseiged by buyers
and prospective buyers of
TRIBUNES.
Another popularity of the
wheel is that they are the
most honest wheel built, and
in this respect are the envy
of all competitors. 1t is a
popularity that all makers
would like to initiate, if they
could afford to do so. The
trouble with most of these
same makers is that they
cannot afford to put material

They have to pay too much.

The humiliation OF the Spanish fleet con-
tinues to be an absorbing topic among ma

erous praise to Commodore Schley for the
notable manner in which he directed the

to his lot. The commodore's friends have

greatest, achievement, in long line with
which Comm odore Schley's name has been

Washington, July CAS- result of the
cabinet meeting Tuesday, Instructions
were sent by the president to Admiral
Sampson and Gen. Shafter to confer to-
gether concerning joint plan of attack
upon the city. Upon the outcome of this
conference depends the line OF action for
the imemdtate future. For the present the
land bombardment by Gen. Skaters
forces has been deferred as the situation
has SO completely changed by the ami
hflatfon of the Spanish fleet that 1t is man

SIMPSONS fleet Gen. Skaters demand
for the surrender of Santiago, on the plan
OF bombardment, was made at $50 o'clock
Sunday morning. An hour later Admiral
Cervera made his suicidal dash from the
harbor. resulting In a complete trans
formation of the naval and military opera
tons. Instead of a menacing Spanish fleet
within the harbor, the way has been
cleared save for the shore batteries, for the
entrance Of the American fleet up to the
very wharves of the city.

With this material change wrought. II
was obvious to the authorities here that
the blow. first intended to be delivered by
Gen. Shafter alone, would be doubly eff

MANNERS OUTSIDE THE NAVY.
An Instance showing That Old Sea
Dogs Have Little Respect for
Land Lubbers' Ways.

The ordinary sea a...n'a respect for
rank and station when not connected
with his beloved vessel is decidedly
meager, says a writer in an article en-
titled "On a Man-of-War." When the
president of the United States visits one
of our men-of-war he is received at the
gangway by the admiral, commanding
officer, and all OF the officers of the ship
in full uniform, the crew at quarters
for inspection, the marine guard drawn
up with the band on the quarter deck,
the national flag is displayed at the
main, the drummer gives four Duties,
the band plays the national air and q
salute of 81 guns is fired. The same
ceremony also takes place on his leav-
ing.
On one occasion the president visited
one of the ships informally, dispensing
with the salute and ceremony, when
one of the men rather Indignantly
asked another who that lubber was on
the quarterback that didn't "douse his
peak" to the commodore.
Choke your huff, will you," was the
reply; that's the president of the
United States.'''
well! Amt he got manners enough
to salute the quarterback if he is?.
Manners! What does he know about
manners? l don't suppose he was ever
out OF sight of land in his life"

Gen. Shafter has demanded an instant and
unconditional surrender of Santiago de Gu
ba. The Spanish commander CURLY and
emphaticallg refused. The American gem
eral in sending his demand warned all for
eign residents out of the city before ten
o'clock Monday morning, July 4. at which
hour the Commandment Woala, he said, be-
gin. The only notice Gen. Linares took
was that no Cubans would be permitted to
leave.
Sunday evening Lieut.. Col Astor, of Gen.
Skaters staff, was informed by courier
that the Spanish generals were considering
terms of surrender. The courier's report.
however, is altogether unconfirmed. and Is
discredited by Gen. Shafter.
The general belief is that the crushing
OF Admiral Cervera's fleet entirely changes
the situation. now that Admiral Sampson
can enter the harbor, and the army and
navy can make combined attack on the
city. 1t Is not believed that Gen. Shafter
Will make decisive move until that Ques-
