The Dutch bark Johanna sailed
from New York on October 81 for
Honolulu. On November 9 ter
rife gale set in from the north
north west, accompanied by enor-
nous seas. The midship bulwarks
and main hatch we're smashed in
and the deck beams broken, and
the vessel began to take in water
at an alarming rate. The ship
was seen to weave and buckle like
a basket, and it was feared that
she would break 10 two smidships.
Finally, on November IL, the
wind and sea went down and the
men clam bered on board of the
wreck and set distress signals. At
IL p, m. the British steamer
Peconic was seen approaching,
and lifeboats shortly afterward
came to their rescue. Captain
MARS, the mate and several OF
the men were more or less bruised.
The johanna was built at Al
basserdam, Holland, in 1890, was
of 1164 tons and was owned by j.
Vroege. She was laden with
general merchandise and ma
chinery for several of the import
ing houses of Honolulu.
The Peconic landed the ship
wrecked mariners, eighteen all
told, in New York on the 18th
inst.
Mr.. Brewer, who Is in Homo
lulu, received a telegram from his
house in Boston, saying that the
ship, George Curtis, coming to
Honolulu to load sugar, would
sell from New York on January
Is. Orders for merchandise by
this ship will be in good time if
forwarded by the Australia's mail
tomorrow.

WASHINGTON, Jan. s.-T'he report of spe-
cial Agent Aver to the secretary Of the treas
ury on the production of tin and tin plates
in the United States during the fiscal year
ending June 80, 1870 shows that the total
production was 446, ,OS3 pounds, of which
about IS per cent was of the class weigh
ing lighter than 63 pounds per 100 square
feet. This is an increase IN the production
Of a little less than 10000 0GO pounds, or
over As per cent compared with 1896. The
total importation during the year was PA
407.6M pounds, and the expectation for the
same period 139, A6,13O pounds, making the
net imports 100 161, Al pounds. The produc-
ton OF the United States therefore was more
than four-ffths Of the entire consumption The
annual capacity of mills completed and in

to be about 65O,Oo0,O0o pounds. The report
also states that on Jan. 4, 1898. the price

Gle. The quantity of American sheet iron
and steel made by stamping and other man
ufacturing firms into articles and wares
timed or tin plated during the year. was
1922 061 pounds, against 10, 5S6 40 pounds dur

CONFERENCE OF THE WHITE

PARTIES.
Mr.. T0WNE IN WASHINGTON.
THE MEETING SAID TO BE MERELY
INCIDENTAL TO HIS
VISIT.
CONCERTED ACTION DISCUSSED.
End In View Is to Present n Solid
Front in the Congressional
ELECTORS.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 8.-Leaders Of
the various parties advocating the free
coinage Of silver were In conference in
the capitol today. The first meeting
was held in the committee room Of
Senator Jones' of Arkansas, chairman
Of the Democratic national committee,
and there were present in addition to
Senator Jones, Senator Butler On. Co.
chairman Of the national committee Of
the POpulist party; Hon. c. A. Towne,
chairman Of the national committee of
the Silver Republican party; Senator
White, Congressman Bailey and Hon.
Marcus DAILY, Democrats; Senators Tel
Ter, Pettgrew, Cannon and Mantle and
Representative Hartman, Silver Re-
publicans, and Senator Allen, Populist
Later in the day there was another
conference in which the Democrats did
not participate. The meeting was not
final, and no authorized statement was
made of the proceedings, beyond the
announcement that the meeting was
merely incidental to Mr.. Towne's visit
to Washington. 1t Is understood, how
ever, that the principal subject dis
cussed was the deVising of a plan for
holding the silver forces together for
the congressional campaign next fall,
and that, while no absolute conclusion
was reached, it was decided that local
silver leaders of whatever party aff1lia-
ton should be advised of the convic-
ton of the national leaders Of the ne
cessity of maintaining a solid front
against the Republican party as the
organized advocate Of the policy OF
maintaining the gold standard. The
chairmen of the various parties are
said to be agreed as to the wisdom and
Importance of concerted action.

LONGS LETTER
He Replies to the Senate Civil Serv-
ice Inquiry.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 8.-Secretary Long
has addressed the following letter to the
senate:
In compliance with the request of the SEN
ate, dated Dec. IS. 1897, the navy depart
ment has the honor to say that, in its opini IN
the only amendment which its experience
suggests in the laws governing the civil serv-
ice or the rules established by the civil
service commission relates to the latter-the
rules:
The amendment regarded as advisable is
that the civil service commission should
approve what may be called a navy yard
order. providing that the secretary of the
by a board of naval officers, appoint certain
employees at navy yards, etc. (other than
clerks, managers watchmen and draftsmen)
whom the commission either does not have
on its eligible list or; is unable to supply
without unreasonable delay. There have bt e.
several cases-one of leveler and rod man
another of special laborer having technical
knowledge Of machinery, where the c2mmis-
sion was several months in furnishing the
men wanted and whose services were very
much needed during that time.

REWARD FOR THE WORKERS.

ON A Low POLITICAL PLANE.
Debate on the Pending ApprO-
priatiOn Bill.

WASHINGTON, Jan. S.-The house
devoted two hours of the session today
to the civil service debate, during
which Messrs. Corliss Rep., Mich0,
Hepburn Rep., Io) and Clarke (Rep.,
n. HI addressed the house in opposi-
ton to the law as it now stands. The
remainder of the session was consum-
ed by the friends of the late Repre-
sentative Wright, of Massachusetts, in
eulogy of his memory.
Mr.. Corliss was the first speaker. He
favored radical notifications OF the
law. He thought that constitutionally
the heads of departments We're cloth
ed with the power of appointing their
subordinates. To that extent he
thought, if tested, the law would be
unconstitutional. He believed the right
of removal should be restored and the
tenure of office limited.
Mr.. Hepburn Rep., Io) spoke for
an hour against what he termed the
popular impression of the so-called
merit system. The public, he argued,
had been utterly misled by the high
sounding title 'reformers." In some
things the old system, at it's worst, was,
he believed, superior to the new MY
know the qualifications Of their con-
stituents, and in the selection of can
didates for office have everything at
stake. I believe that there is greater
probability of probity in action, wis
dom in selection and beneficence re-
sulting in the old system than in this
dark-fed, subterranean, irresponsible
method we have fallen into this later
time"
He believed the appointive power and
the power of removal should be lodged
III the same hands and should be I'M
limited Amid a burst of applause
from galleries and floor, he insisted
that the political workers were EMIT ed
to and should be accorded recognition.
II there were to be no reward for the
workers, the workers in the future
would be more and more loyal to rich
contributors instead OF to their party,
and their country. If the present sys-
tenn continues, the influence of rich
men in politics would grow steadily.
Mr.. Hepburn said he knew his frank
expressions would excite criticism for
him, and it would possibly be said that
he placed himself on a low political
plane, but these were his convictions,
and he would utter them.
Mr. Clark (Rep., N. H.) closed the de-
bate for the day with some remarks in
favor of modifying the law. He did
not care to specify the notifications he
would make. He was willing to leave
that to the judgment of the civil service
committee. But any old thing was
better than the present law. Gaugh-
teri
At o'clock the debate gave way to
the special order and the remainder Of
the day was devoted to tributes to the
life and public services of the late Rep
N,%s -t<rl,@ 4.

ceased colleague were: Messrs. Law

we have begun the unearthing of a plot
which means nothing less than the es-
tabllshipg by the United States of a
protectorate over Cuba, and the COM
piete retirement of Spain from the
Island. The Spaniards in Cuba. es-
peclally the rich and influential ones
realize that Spain has lost her grin Or

again call on the Spaniards for pro-

There is a possibility that this latest

WASHINGTON Jan. S, Auditor Castle,
make an investigation of the accounts rem
dered by postmasters for the past six
months. The old system of checking and
settling accounts. under which the auditor
has discovered apparent evidences of fraud,
has been in operation for three years, but
the six months period VII serve as a test
to show in general way to what extent
frauds may have been committed. If those
discovered prove of such magnitude as to
warrant an examination of the ACCOUNT for
the entire three years, then the work will be
undertaken. Some of the discrepancies, it is
believed, will be found to be due to the inn
peia ct registration of the coupons attached
to the money orders, which complexities the
checking by the accounting officers and makes
mistakes of frequent occurrence. 1t is said
that the accounts of one postmaster at a
