IN PH|LANTHROP|G MOODHAO IS TO HAVE A BANK|
BRANCH OF THE FIRST NATIONAL
THERE.
Comptroller of the Currency has
Guaranteed the Charter-Organiza-
tion will Take Place in January.

1t is to be the First National Bank
of Hawaii, Honolulu, and there is TO
be branch bank at Hilo.
Colonel George w. Macfarlane re-
turned by the Coptic and brings word
that the Comptroller of the currency
has guaranteed to Perry S. Heath,
first assistant postmaster general and
his associates, that he will issue the
charter for the new band in which
James Campbell and himself are in
terested, as soon as Congress extends
the territorial laws to Hawaii. That
will probably be very soon.
Meanwhile the comptroller has
agreed to receive money to be deposit
ed to secure circulation, to receive de-
posits of the bonds for circulation and
government deposits and to receipt for
them in the name of the new bank.
The plates for the bank notes will be
prepared and the notes themselves be
printed in advance and held by the
comptroller till the bank is organic
ed for business.
The only reason for not issuing the
charter at once is that technically the
territorial laws have not vet been ex.
'OhuOu W idNdli, WHICH IdCU might n
some future time be raised against
the bank in litigation of Importance
But this will probably not delay mat
ters longer than January at which
time it is expected to fully organize
and commence business. \ place OF
business will not be decided upon until
James Campbell returns,
The bank will have an authorized
capital of $1,000,0O0, of which $500, ,OOC
will be paid up at the beginning and
the balance as it is needed. The cap
ital can be increased at any time tc
meet the needs of business. or tc
amalgamate with it any other nation
al bank that might be started.
The details of the Hilo branch bank
are being arranged and advices con.
cerning them will be brought by the
next steamer.
1t is intended that a majority ot
the stock shall be held in Hawaii, bu
the Seligmans of New York and tn,
Anglo-California Bank of San Fran

4 MILITARY PAPER SAYS THEY
ARE BRAVE.
Fighting for Love of Old Glory-Ar-
my is Proud of Them-Soldiers Re-
member Hawaii.

Freedom, bright little paper pub
lished in Manila, contains i'll its is
sue of October Goth, the following ed
itorial remark under the heading "Ha-
waii:"
Hawaii must ever remain a bright
spot in the memories of American sol
diers. Before she became the fair and
fiower-bedecked bride of Uncle Sam
she was as true to Old Glory's cause
as it is possible for any state to be.
She placed herself in positive danger
to befriend and aid the American
cause, and there is not one soldier in
this grand army of occupation who
can feel otherwise than proud to lift
his hat to citizen of Honolulu in
recognition of the grand and royal
treatment he received at that place.
Everything that love and patriotism
could suggest for the comfort and
welfare of an army, sailing to conquer
or die in foreign lands, was done at
that priceless pearl of the Pacific.
Houses were thrown open to our sol
diers. Sisters, sweethearts, wives,
brothers. husbands and fathers, in
fact. everybody and all seemed espe-
cially interested in us and heartily
anxious that in Honolulu we should
| feel a welcome as warm and sweet and
lasting as only the people of that par
adise can give. 1t was there we got
our last look at home, and look it
! was that will forever remain fresh
! and vivid and full of color, to be call
ed up at the mere mention of Hawaii.
During the early part of the war,
/ when expeditions were hurrying to
the relief of Dewey, many of Honolu-
lu's young men, full of love for the
Stars and Stripes, sought enlistment
in the service. Some succeeded in
the usual way, while others were re-
| fused on account of the various or
CARNATIONS being filed.
"a few of the latter class, not to be
turned down by small/ obstacles, Sc.
creted themselves aboard transports
and left their sun-kissed homes as
| stow-aways.
"The latter succeeded in getting
their names enrolled on Freedom.
book of honor as volunteers, so tha
touay there are about forty of then
in various regiments of the army il
Manila
They are brave lot.
Their commanders speak well ot
them, and Freedom takes pleasure il
| referring to them at this time"

LILIUOKALANI'S PLANS FOR THE
FUTURE.
viii Not Accept Pension but Wants
the Crown Lands in Order to Endow
Institutions.

Queen Liliuokalani left for Wash
ington week ago Thursday, after re-
naming three Gays in San Francisco.
During that time she was in consulta-
ton with attorneys, and the papers
constituting Colonel George w. Mac
farland her sole representative in the
settlement of the crown lands, were
drawn up and executed.
Colonel Macfarlane is now at work
looking up data and evidence relative
to the early history of the crown
lands, the Importance of which was
pointed out by the attorneys consult
ed in the matter.
A Washington dispatch says that
Senator Cullom's bill relating to Ha-
waii contains a provision for the APP
pointment of an unbiased commission
to investigate and report on the
crown lands question and negotiate a
settlement with Liliuokalani.
The eX-Queen has declined to con-
slider any proposition for a pension, or
anything except on the basis of set
tlement of the crown lands. She has
become thoroughly reconciled to the
situation it is said, and asks nothing
of the United States except what she
believes are her rights in the crown
lands.
Her fight for them is not made for
her personal emolument, for it is said
that she intends with whatever she Sc.
cures in settlement to establish an
endow institutions for the benefit OF
Hawaii and Hawaiians, after making
liberal provision for the Princess Kai
ulani.

Senator Shoup of Idaho on the Hawa-

BOISE, Id, November Ex-senator
Shoup, chairman of the senate COM
mittee on territories, as he was Ieav-
ing for Washington, said today:
Il am in favor of giving the Hawa-
iian Islands territorial form of gov
ernment, the same that exists in the
territories of this country As to
Porto Rico and the Philippines, be-
lieve they should be placed under the
control of a civil commission until
the requirements of those countries
and the characters of their people are
fully understood by us. | am in favor
of placing Cuba under a military gov
ernment until the question of the
ability of the Cubans to govern them
selves had been determined. We are
bound under the Teller resolution to
give the Cubans a chance for self-gov.
ernment. If they fail, of course, the
United States must step in and take
permanent charge, but during the tri.
al process we must retain our grasp
on the Island"
His colleague, Senator Heitfeld. said
he agreed in the main with these
views.

LoTHRoP's THEATRE.

There is little doubt that the most
popular repertoire star that ever played
in Worcester is Katherine Rober. For
several seasons Miss Rober has been
dividing her attentions impartiaIly be-
tween the patrons of the Worcester
Theatre and Lothrop's, and this year
she will make her only appearance of
the season at Manager Wilton's cozy
playhouse, thereby undoubtedly largely
augmenting the Lothrop exchequer.
Miss ROBBERS plays are varied this
season, ranging from classic to broad
est farce, and it is safe to say Miss
Katherine is equally proficient in either
department.

The silence was ICY 1t was broken
by Bismarck, who urged Wimpffen not
to break off the conference in a mo-
ment of piqueg The French general
represented that he alone could not in
cur the responsibility of the decision
that it was necessary that he should
consult his colleagues; that the final
answer could not be made by a. M,
and that a prolongation of the armis-
tice was Indispensable. After a short

consent that the truce should be ex-
