that the Fashoda question will not lead
TO war. At the same time the deter
mination is reiterated not 20 bulge

taken up, no matter what the outcome
may be.
1t is said that the Government has

NEW YORK, Oct. PA Sun ca bic
from London says: The papers here
continue to fill three or four columns
daily with matter concerning Fashoda.
Much of this stuff consists OF verbatim
extracts from the most obscure and
nOisiest Paris journals, TO which Lon
don editors affect to attach an import
ance which they know they do not
possess, while they gravely denouncS
the more sober French organs, which
refuse to scream, for their inability to
recognize that England is in earnest.
1t is not surprising that Temps, in
leader, complains that the aim of the
London press seems to be not so much
TO obtain Fashoda as to pin France TO
a choice between humiliation and a
fatal rupture. Some Of the Paris pa
pers adhere to the assertion that ne
gotiatiOns are proceeding, despice the
Duke of Devonshire's recent statement
that nothing had passed between
France and England since the blue
book was issued by the latter, while
others merely indulge in railing and
threats.
Meantime, nothing Indicates that the
respective governments are expecting
war, despite the fact that the news
papers are eXaggerating every coinci-
dental instruction to armies and navies
into a preparation for hostilities.

PANY'S PUMPS ORDERED FROM
THE RISDON IRON WORKS.

The Honolulu Sugar Company, after
very careful investigation OF the
merits of the different pumping plants,
nave contracted with the Risdon Iron
Works for one IL 100000 and one
10000 pump, with four Heine boil
ers, similar in design to those now be-
ing erected at the Hawaiian Electric
Co.'S Works.
The officials of the Honolulu Sugar
Company decided to put in the best
and most efficient pumping plant that
could be had; and with that end in
view, consulted with the leading Island
and Coast pump engineers with regard
to the same, and it was decided that
the most economical and efficient plant
would be a triple-eXpansiOn fS-wheel
Corliss proposition with outside packed
water ends.
The design and proposition of the
RisdCn Iron Works were the most de-
sira BILE. and the contract has been
awarded to them. 1t is the intention
of the Risdon people to furnish plant
that will be a model of it's kind. Many
of the Objectionable features Of the
present pumping plants will be elm
mated, and the whore has been ar
ranged so as to meet the special condi-
| tions existing in the Islands. There
| will be no pits in the foundations foT
air pumps, condensers, etc, everything
| being above the floor line which al
| lows the main suction pipe TO get right
