Transports in Bad Condition.

Vancouver. B.. c.. Aug. 1.-THE royal
mail steamer Aorangi arrived this af-
ternoon from Sydney. N. s. w, n
Wellington, New Zealand. via Honolulu.
Among the passengers on the Aorangi
was Miss Maud Jeffries, a well now
actress.
Hawaiian news up to Aug. Q is
brought by the Aorangi. On that day
United Minister Sewall was seen in re-
gard to the flag raising. He said: II
have just received my Instructions and
will confer with dmiral Miller very
soon. i car assure you, however. that
there will be nothing done until Friday
and probably later. That is all l can
say just now" q
Old Glory floats from the top of
Kaala. the highest point of the island
of Oahu, Hawaii. This was accom-
plished by Judge w. F. Frear, Garrett
Wilder and Walter Dillingham;, with a
native guide, who made the ascent of
the peak.
Ex-Queen Liliuokalani is reported to
have said: II have lone the best i
could for my people. Now that the ISL
ands are annexed there is nothing to do
but to submit and make the very best
out of the situation. My feelings in the
premises are well known and I do not
care to discuss the matter at length"
There are "a United States soldiers I'm
the hospital at Honolulu. Seven are
more or less seriously i'll. The number
at the Red Cross hospital IN Aug. l
was 10. OF these 13 We're in bed and
five patients required careful looking
after. Two OF the Red Cross patients
are convalescent and expect to be sent
home by the steamer Glengary, due
from Yokohama for San Francisco Aug.
8. They are James Lavin OF Company
d, 23d regiment ". s. A., and Guy De-
boynton of the 18th Minnesota volun-
teers. At the Queens hospital there
are nine boys in blue. Two are quite
bad cases. One has pneumonia and the
other meningitis. The latter is Mr..
Prather. He is gaining strength slowly,
but requires the greatest of care.
The Honolulu Bulletin says: Now
tina the islands are a part and parcel
of the United States, a change is be-
ginning already to be felt in the bust
ness community. Within a month there
has been quite an influx of representa-
tives of Eastern n California bust
ness firms here. looking over the sltua-
ton"
While the payment of the Japanese
claims was humiliating to the govern
ment. yet being at the request of the
United States government n meant
as a compromise to facilitate annexa-
ton. the executive council has, after
mature elaboration, decided to yield
without admitting that the government
was I'm the wrong.
Complaints come from the boys on
the City of Puebla abou the condition
of that vessel and the great need of a
thorough cleaning before starting oct
for Manila.
story comes from one of the off
GERS of the City of Puebla that one of
the soldiers, while on the way to Homo
lulu. la not a a mouthful to eat
for Is hours. He stole a loaf of bread
and was court martialed and fined so.
The California boys BOARD the trans
ports are looking for the men who sent
back to the states reports of the out
rageous doings of the boys in blue on
the first transports to Manila. They
say il had such an effect on the powers
that be, that the men were put under
the very strictest orders to refrain from
loud noises on board ships or on shore
They must not cheer. They could not
even wave Old Glory. The worst part
of the whole thing is that not a cent OF
their two months pay will be given tht
men for fear hat they will create
trouble In the town.
