the Porto Rican campaign is to be a
deliberate one, the campaign against
Havana is to be a more deliberate
one.
General Miles will be commander
in-chief of the Havana campaign
and will start in with two trained
major generals in Generals Shafter
and Brooks. Lee will follow with
another division and Graham with
the Camp Alger troops and 1000
men left in Chickamauga will help

The Board of Health has made a
good move in appointing Mr.. Arthur
Johnstone as food inspector. The
new inspector is a scientific micros-
copist and his experience as a news
paper man in Honolulu will enable
him to put his hand on the very men
who are trying to foist adulterated
provisions on the community. The
new inspector can not be every
where, however, and it is the duty
of all good people to furnish him
with information whenever they
have reason to believe that adulter-
ated goods have been sold. The
inspector will be a valuable assist
ant in the interest of public health.

Cuban allies have quit the American
lines for the reasons sent out in the

but it is scarcely doubted that such
is the case for the friction has been
growing more pronounced every day
since the fall of Santiago, and it is
feared that severance OF relations
cannot be longer avoided. That
the Cuban Junta is still hopeful Of
avoiding such measure is evidenced
by the confidence shown by Senior

Have the Americans here no
sense of decency and honor, and are
they unable to realize what the an
nexation of Hawaii means to the
Hawaiian nation? Can they not
understand that the Hawaiians love
their country with feelings as strong
as those which foreigners" Of all
nationalities display when their flags
are in question. Let the Hawaiians
stay away from a ceremony which
no man, woman and child of their
race can witness without feeling sad
or sorrowful. II may be for the
benefit of Hawaii-nei that these
beautiful islands have been incorp-
, Grated in the great union of Ameri-
can States. 1t may be that the new
deal will help to advance the pros
perity and wealth of the Hawaiians
but the price is heavy and every
patriot will naturally prefer poverty
and distress under an independent
government to doubtful wealth un-

The Philadelphia Arrives.

The u. S. S. Philadelphia bearing
the blue pennant and two stars of
Rear-Admiral Miller came down the
channel a few minutes after IL to-
day. At 1920, in the channel, a
salute was fred to the Hawaiian
flag and the flag lowered, probably
never again to be raised on board
an American warship.
The Tug Eleu with the band on
board met the Philadelphia outside,
cheered and played the Star Span
gled Banner, which was responded
to by Hawaii Ponoi by the Admiral's
band.
The waterfront was lined with
spectators but they were not suf-
ficiently enthused to raise even a
solitary cheer.
The war vessel came down COM
fortably in 6 days and 20 hours.

classes to be present at the formal
delivery of their country to the

respect their country, their flag,
their people and themselves, and

EXPLOSION IN HABAyA.
"""S PERSONS Injured, n Large Pro-
portion Fatally.

hABANA, November 2S.-An explosion
occurred on the Avenue Infanta. between
the Santa Clara and Reina batteries to-
oay' killing or injuring thirty-eight per-
sons. Many boxes Of powder were stored
IN a private house, which also contained
hve rooms full OF Mauser and other cart
rldges' The careless handling of one of
the boxes or powder. or one of the boxes
OF cartridges, caused the explosion.
Inc presence of such a large quantity
OF cartridges-known to have been brought
recently from the artillery depot-in an
out-oI-the-way house, where they were
stored roOf-high, has not been explained
MOST OF VICTIMS CHILDREN
Most Of those employed in emptying the
cartridges evidently did their work on the
premises, and were boys and girls under
IL years OF age, and they formed the
greatest portion Of the victims. The en-
p4Oyment or children in such a dangerous
occupation and the existence of such q
large quantity of explosives within the
city limits are both in contravention of
the municipal regulations.
whether there may have been some ute
rior motive in storing these explosives
cannot be answered. but the casualty sug-
gests the probability that there may have
been other similar deposits where the
Iocanties are unknown to the authorities.
Senior DeCastro, the Civil Governor OF
Habana, has stationed a guard over the
unexploded powder. and an investigation
into the whole affair has been ordered
THREE OF THE INJURED DIE.
845 p. M.-Nobody was killed outright
by the explosion. but three of the Injured
died this afternoon. and the condition of
most OF the others is more or less critical.
AT least fifteen are not expected TO live
~ was miracle that the immediate loss
Of life was not greater.
