Fully 400 people were present Saturday
afternoon. For three hours there was a
constant line of carriages arriving and

It is reported in financial circles that
the capital stock of the company own

on the Island of Hawaii, is to be in
creased from 100000 to 100000 The
matter will take definite shape this
week. The understanding is now that
the present stockholders will take up
the new issue amongst themselves. The
plantation is doing so well under new
management that it is deemed advis-
able to add to the capital, and with
this and the profits of 1889 wipe out

WAS STEAM.
A Mauna Loa Passenger Corrects
a Volcano Report.

1t turns out that the first report re-
garding volumes of steam from the
crater of Mokauweoweo on Mauna
Loa, is incorrect. There was not the
slightest appearance of activity from
that place.
A man from the district of Kau
has the following story to tell: Il was
a passenger on the Mauna Loa and, be-
ing a resident of Kau, could locate the
place from which 1 saw volumes of
steam arise. This was at Kahalepo-
haha, the scene of the flow of 1887.
Columns of steam at various intervals
seemed to rise steadily and from time
to time. to spread out at the top, like
the kahilis in use during the time of
the old aliis. The appearance was that
of a flow, but again, the steam may
have ccme from a crack. What makes
me think it was not flow, is the fact
that there were no earthquakes pre-
ceding the appearance of the steam. To
those who do not know the situation
of Kahalepohaha, I might say that it is
two-thirds of the way down the noun
tain side, and closest to Kahuku.''

TO GRADE COFFEE.
A New Act In the Interest
of Hawaiian Product.
Commissioners to Class and Mark
the Entire Crop-Penalty of Law
Is a Heavy Export Duty.

1t was only last week that the Cen
trail Committee of the Oahu American
Union Party sent to the party men in
the Legislature an appeal in the in
terest of coffee and other young indus
tries. 1t appears that the assessors ON
the Island of Hawaii, and in coffee dis
tricts elsewhere, have been interpret
ing the 1892 exemption law in manner
hat seems to the planters and investors
to be entirely foreign to its spirit. That
law makes tax free implements, trees,
crops, ETC., for period of 10 years.
There was nothing said in so many
words in the act about the land, but
those who have put money into the
new business say they of course under
stand that the law was intended to
make taxes light for them till their
plantations were producing nicely. The
assessors are putting decidedly stiff
valuation on the land and in justlhca-
ton point to the letter Of the law.
Another act with an extension OF the
exemption period will be introduced at
this session.
Coffee and coffee lands will be quite
prominent in legislation before the ses-
sion ends. Here are the important or
striking paragraphs of an act that will
go into the House in a few days;
There shall be appointed BIZ the
Minister of the Interior one or more
commissioners. whose duties shall be
TO examine and grade all coffees sub
mitted to them for that purpose, at
such places and under such rates Oh
COMPENSATION and conditions as may
ba imnosed from time to time by the
Minister of the Interior. After such
examination and grading, the commas
sioner shall seal the bag or consalnel
of such coffee with an official seal IN
such manner that the said bag or con-
+ainer cannot be opened without break
ine and mutilating the said seal; ana
shall cause said bag or contalner TO De
MAINLY marked with the grade and
quality Of the coffee as found by MIN to
be contained therein.
oThe Minister of the Interior may
fix rates of compensation to be PAID by
applicants for the examination ana

ton shall be deposited with the COM
missioner at the time of making appli-
cation.
can export duty of cents per pound
shall be paid on all coffees exported
from the Hawaiian Island not exam
ined graded and under seal as afore-
said
A number of the leading planters
factors and retailers are behind this
act. The only opposition they have met
so far is some objection to the export
duty provision. 1t is clear, as they
maintain, that this is simply an ex-
pedient method of imposing penalty
for failure to have coffee graded so that
the reputation of the superior Hawai-
ian product may be kept inviolate. The
friends of the proposed act argue
strongly that this is the best possible
stipulation TO insure the success of
such law. 1t is likely that the item
of age will also be inserted for mark
ing on the bags.

Some Interesting Notes Are Sent
by a Reliable Man.
ARE FROM FORT WRANGLE
Travel - Accommodations at the
Military Post-Customs Wrinkles.
No Horse Feed on the Road.

a friend at Seattle sends to an at
tache Of the Advertiser a copy of an
interesting letter from reliable man
at Fort Wrangle, a station on the Klon-
dixie road. Following are extracts:
This place has about 200 whites and
300 Indians. At present the hotel ac-
commodations are very poor, there be-
ing sleeping accommodations for about
50 people. We have five eating houses,
In six weeks our hotel (not mine), will
be finished, which will accommodate
about $50 people.
"At present the only way to get to
the river is by scow or canoe, which
costs $3.50 for one man and outfit. The
Alaskan made one trip last week, and
on her return, just before anchoring,
she ran on a rock. She will probably
make daily trips next week. The river
is seven miles from Wrangle wharf.
For the last two weeks parties have
left here every day for the river from
four to 20 in a party. They all take in
from one to two years supplies. One
man can easily draw 300 lbs. on sled;
a dog about the same.
There is considerable snow on the
river, but party came out from Teslin
lake last week and made a good trail.
This has been kept hot with $50 and
another with 20 horses, (now here) will
start up the river next week, to be fol-
lowed with several other parties with
horses. which will make the trail first
class. The snow has made the trail
comparatively level.
UNITED States Customs officers re-
quire parties to give bond or pay an
officer to go to the boundary. The cost
is about $40. Any number can club to-
gether and pay one officer. The bound
airy line is about 80 miles from Wran,
gle. There is a bonded warehouse in
Wrangle owned by Sylvester & Reed
There is a first-class trail between
Telegraph creek and lTeslin.
There is absolutely no feed foI
horses or cattle between here and Daw-
son City now on account of the snow;
but in the spring there is no finer OF
more abundant grazing on earth thar
between Telegraph creek and lake Tes-
lin. Parties bringing horses, dogs, OF
other animals must bring feed for the
entire trip, as they cannot get it here
1.-THE people of Wrangle do all they
can for prospectors, and have the
first case of extortion to hear of. The
United States Government barracks
have been free for all corners so far, be
they English or American. 1t is q
large, good house.
In conclusion 1 will say if you give
anyone a card to me, l will assist them
all in my power while here, free OF
charge"

beautiful grounds had been specially
prepared for the occasion, but the eff
feet of the cocoanut grove, the Hawai-
ian hut and the many other attractions
of the grounds was lost in the flood of
water. But the rooms within the resi-

dated the many guests, who were

entertainment provided for them.

veranda of the main residence. at the

band was stationed. The guests were
