BICYCLES IN OSAKA.

1t was only last year that the BIZ
cycle was introduced into Osaka. Since
then its popularity has so greatly in
creased there that at present several
thousands of machines in the city are
i'm use and on sale. while there are al
together seven bicycle dealers. Out
of the imported bicycles two-thirds
are of American make and one-third
British, while French bicycles are al
so being imported to some extent. On
June 18th the first cycling race
ever held in the city took place at
Minamichi, over 200 cyclists taking a
part in it. Even at the postotfice they
are now utilizing the bicycle for the
delivery of letters at remote places,
and the telegraph office has also pur-
chased several machines, while the
delivery of market reports on the
stock market, etc, is also being ef-
fected by means of bicycles. The tax
to be imposed per machine at Osaka
is said to be ) yen per annum.

THE INDIANA IS ALL RIGHT
HER MACHINERY THOROUGHLY
REPAIRED.
All of the Transports Will Sail Again
About 3 O'clock This Afternoon-No
Danger Now.

The transports will sail again at 3
o'clock this afternoon for Manila.
The town was surprised about
o'clock yesterday afternoon to learn
from the lookout station that five of
the vessels which had sailed a few
hours before were returning. Specu-
lation about sealed orders and Span
ish squadrons became rife at once.
The whole trouble which caused
the return of the transports was in
the boilers of the Indiana. Some of
the tubes began to leak shortly after
getting under way. 1t became neces-
sary at one time for the Ohio to tow
the flagship, the latter's steam hav-
ing given out.
Upon reaching an anchorage out
side, the Honolulu Iron Works was
communicated with, and a gang of
blacksmiths were put to work on the
new tubes required. 1t took until 2
o'clock this morning to get them all
in shape for the boilers
Two machinists were sent out in
Larsen's launch this morning and the
pieces were fitted. 1t is understood
from them that the job is perfect
one and that there is no danger of
another breakdown between here and
Manila. \ trial of the boiler was
made just before noon.
About o'clock yesterday afternoon
the tug started out to the transports
to learn the trouble and offer assist
ance. Before reaching the head Of
the channel, however, the officers of
the vessel who had been sent to the
Iron Works, were met and taken IN
board. The small boat went back,
and the men were landed from the
tug at Brewers wharf. Consul Gen
eral Haywood made the trip out with
the tug.
Ten officers of the Para came
ashore this morning, under orders to
be back by l p. m.
They were received cordially in
town. They spent a part of the NOR
ming purchasing curios to be sent east
and then took lunch at the Officers
club. All the visitors were from the
Minnesota regiment.
During the forenoon numerous
shore boats visited the vicinity of the
transports. Some took fruit out for
the boys. No one was allowed on
board.
The Newport, carrying General Mer-
ritt, did not return, she having got
to far ahead of the others to be sig
nailed

GAVE HOSTAGE TOFORTUNE
OPIUM SMUGGLER WEINRICH
SKIPS THE COUNTRY.
Left the Queens Hospital Clandes-
timely and is Supposed to Have
Slowed Away on the Warrimoo.

Albert Weinrich has skipped. He
is supposed to be somewhere between
here and Victoria on the Warrimoo.
He gave hostage to fortune to escape

Weinrich is one of the men charg-
ed with smuggling opium on the Lab
rador lie was held for trial at the
next term of court and his bail was
fixed at $500. He did not give bail,
but at the request of the British com
missioner. being a very sick man, he
was sent to the Queens Hospital in
stead of being sent to Jail. Being so
sick, as it was supposed, no guard
was put on him.
just before the Warrimoo sailed for
Victoria Thursday afternoon, he mys-
teriously disappeared from the hospi-
tai. AS soon as his disappearance
was noticed at the hospital inquiries
were set afoot for him. but by that
time the Warrimoo had sailed. Enough
was learned to convince the police
that he had slowed away on her.
probably paying his passage as soon
as the steamer was well at sea. He
had not been in this country thirty
days so he needed no passport.
He was far gone with consumption,
so that from humanitarian point of
view, little regret is felt that he got
away, even if in doing so he evaded
justice. His absence will make no
difference with the case against the
captain of the Labrador or the pro-
ceedings against the vessel itself

SOME FIELD EVENTS FOR THIS
AFTERNOON.
Baseball Again Today-News of the
Horses-Program That Failed-A
Game of Cricket.

The bicycle races arranged for this
evening have been postponed until
next Saturday evening at the same
hour. One reason for the postpone
ment is the departure of the soldiers,
the meet being arranged partially for
their benefit.
y large number of people went to
the baseball grounds Thursday after
noon to witness the Foley sports, not
having heard the the program had
been called off. The way matters had
turned out was a great disappoint-
ment to visitors as well as to town
people. There were a number of A /
athletes among the troops.
There will be a practice game of
cricket on the old baseball grounds
from 2:30 o'clock this afternoon.
II. S. Hagerup has been enlisted as
one of the crack players with the

between the Regiments and Honolu-

able to play, on account of bruises.
The Honolulu team is in pretty bad
shape.
There will be no race between Wela

has been found to be in rather bad
condition. Mr.. Cunningham is per-
fectly satisfied with the stand OF

HILO NEWS.
What the Rainy Town was Doing on
the Fourth

Hilo folks, according to the Hawaii
Herald, had a glorious time on the
Fourth of July. There was an at
tempt at antiques and horribles, but
the rain spoiled that. Then there
were swimming races, a baseball
game, and at II a. m. literary eXercis-
es which included the reading of the
Declaration of Independence and an
address by c. A. Galbraith. orator of
the day. The Herald says: "Many
passages in the address met with the
heartiest approval of the audience,
but the allusion to the irmness of
character of EX-President Cleveland,
and the delay in annexation of Ha-
waii. were received in silence" Lat
er there were horse races and the re-
ceipts from the grand stand amount
ed to $170. Since the 4th, there has
been a movement on foot to acquire
land for regular race track Hilo is
progressing.

GAELIC TAKES OFF THE LATEST
OPIUM DEALER.
Smiling w. j. Leaves His Bondsmen
in the Lurch-Was on the Trans
port City of Para.

w. j. Coon. under conviction of hav-
ing opium in his possession, sailed on
the Gaelic this morning. He had ap-
pealed from the sentence of convic-
ton, and was out on $1,000 bail
While Coon made no previous adj
vertisement of the fact that he was
going to leave, there was no legal inn
pediment to his leaving. He was as
legally free to go as any one else, the
condition of his bond being merely
that he should appear at the August
term to prosecute his appeal and to
abide by the judgment of the court
In contemplation of law he may be
back for that purpose.
Coon was convicted few DAYS
ago of having "A large amount of OPT
um unlawfully in possession. and
sentenced to Imprisonment at hard
labor for three months and to pay a
fine of $3.50. The case was appealed.
and the accused was allowed to go
under bonds in the sum of $1,000.
George Hawkins and William Larsen
were his sureties.
Soon after signing the bond Haw-
kins changed his mind and gave no.
tice to Coon's attorney that unless
the court would reduce the amount,
he would feel obliged to withdraw
from the bond. This Judge Stanley
refused yesterday to do and appeal
was taken by the defendant to the
Supreme Court.
At $3.50 in the forenoon Coon boar
ded the transport City of Para and
left the harbor on her. As the vessel
passed the Wilder wharves he ap-
peared on deck and waved his adieus
to several friends. He cried out to
one friend that he was going to Ma
Mia. An hour later he was back in
town. Whether he was detected on
the transport and sent back to the
shore. or was merely having little
fun of his own. is not known.
There was for while this morn
ing some piIikia at the office of the
Union Express Company about get
ting into the safe. 1t appears that
Coon was the only man in the office
who understood the combination. La
ter it was found that Coon had left
the combination for the guidance of
another member of the firm.
Two men in town are bemoaning
the escapade of the young man for
the reason that they will be obliged
to give up $500 each to the Marshal
in lieu of their friend.
