dence to the Associated Press under date
of Honolulu July 20:
The steamship Coptic arrived from San
Francisco on the evening of the 18th inst,
with the important news that the United
States Senate had ratified the Newlands
resolutions, making Hawaii a part of the
United States. Long before the vessel had
reached the harbor it was known that the
steamer brought annexation news, the in
formation being signaled to the Mohican.
Whistles of foundries, mills and steamers
were turned loose and pandemonium
reigned. Fireworks were set off and one
hundred guns were fired on the grounds Of
the executive building. At the same time
the Hawaiian band marched through the
streets to the wharf playing American
patriotic airs. An immense procession was
formed and a march was made to the
executive building. President Dole was at
his beach home when the steamer was
sighted. He hurried into town and reached
the wharf as the steamer tied up
Captain Sealby, of the Coptic, was pre-
sented with silver cup by the citizens Of
Honolulu for bringing the news. The cup
pore the inscriptions: Annexation. Pre-
scented by the citizens to Captain Inman
Sealby. r. N. r., who brought the good
news to Honolulu"
The leading men of Honolulu met to-day
and recommended Harold M. Sewall, United
States minister to Hawaii, for Governor of
the islands. 1t has been generally thought
that President Dole would be their choice.
The Ohio, Para, Valencia and Indiana,
four vessels of the third fleet of transports
which returned to Honolulu ON account of
an accident to the Indiana, were delayed
here about twenty-four hours and sailed
again for Manila on the 9th. There was
some defect III the boilers of the Indiana.
The Monadnock and the Nero sailed on the
18th. During the monitors stay in port
Captain Whiting had considerable change
made in her condensing apparatus and in
means for ventilating the engine and boiler
rooms. On the trip down the engineers and
firemen suffered greatly from the heat.
E. l.. Greene, of Portland, who shipped as
stoker on the Monadnock was sent to the
insane asylum on the 18th inst. Greene is
a dentist and had a lucrative practice when
the war broke out. He has brother who
graduated at the Annapolis Naval Academy

lieved that rest will speedily restore him.
Greene's condition is a result of excessive

SAN FRANCISCO, July 27.-The United
States ship Philadelphia sailed for Honolulu
this afternoon. Admiral Miller transferred
his flag from the Albatross to the Philadel-
phia to-day. The Philadelphia will make all

raise the flag of the United States over the
island until after the arrival Of the Hawaiian
commission which leaves this city for
Honolulu early in August From authentic
sources comes the information that the ar
rival of the American troops in Honolulu
will be followed by the mastering into the
United States volunteer service Of the Ha-
waiian National Guard, force of $50 men.
1t was officially given out at army head
quarters to-day that the first battalion of

battalion Of the engineer corps will also go.
The two transports Norfolk and Lakme
have been inspected by government officers

PANIC ON n STEAMSHIP
ARRIVAL OF THE ARDANDHU AT
NEW YORK WITH FIRE IN HOLD.
Attempt Made by Jamaicans to Seize
the Lifeb Oats-TrOnble Averted by
the Goodness OF the officers.


NEW YORK, July 27-The steamship
Ardandhu, of the Tweedie line, trading be-
tween West Indian ports and this city,
came up the bay to-day with a heavy list
to starboard and the cargo stored in her
lower hold on fire. The fire first made its
appearance at $50 o'clock on Monday night,
when, if the vessel had made an uninter-
rupted voyage, she should have been off the
New Jersey shore and close to Sandy Hook
But leaky boilers and the breaking down Of
her engines delayed the Ardandhu at least
thirty hours, and at the time of the discoy-
cry of the flames in hold No. 3 the steam
ship was off FenwickS island, on the coast
of Maryland.
The widest excitement followed the out
break of the fire, and several of the eleven
Storage passengers, all Jamaicans, en-
deavored to seize the lifeboats. The third
mate. Percy Sanders, was forced to draw
his revolver to prevent the men from the
Storage leaving the burning steamer in the
three lifeboats which could easily have ac-
commodated the other forty-five passengers
and members of the crew. The passengers
were, however, forced out of the boats by
Captain Walker and his men, and when
discipline was restored preparations were
first made for the saving of the lives of the
women and children on the vessel The
three lifeboats were lowered. The sea was
quite calm, and the ships officers stood by
the rope ladders. Thus a panic was averted
and the safety of, the fifty-six persons on
board the Ardandhu assured
The heat was SO intense and the smoke
was so heavy that it was for a time unsafe
for the passengers to remain on the upper
deck. They were all ordered forward, and
the women and children were first put into
the lifeboats, each of which had a full sup

supplied with compasses and signal rockets.
1t was nearly midnight when Captain Walk
er considered that he had the fire under
control, and decided to continue on his way
to New York. The women and children
were taken back to the steamer and the
lifeboats were hoisted to the davits, but
were not taken on board. The officers from

WASHINGTON. July 2.-Assistant Sec
rotary Meikeljohn has just received news of
the result of the last expedition sent by him
to Cuba to supply Gomez's forces in the
western end of the island with food and
munitions of war. This expedition was car
ried on the transport Wanderer. Havana
reports describe the landing as a failure
and say that four of the landing party, in
Guiding the lieutenant, were killed This is
the usual Spanish exaggeration. One-third
of the supplies carried by the Wanderer
had been landed and sent into the territory
beyond Spanish reach, when an overwheim-
ing force of Spanish troops appeared and
compelled the abandonment of the attempt
to land the remainder None of the Amer
lean party was killed. but four were wound
ed. Their injuries were slight, and thew
were put ashore at Key West to which
port the Wanderer returned The vessel
made another start for western Cuba, this
time with a naval convoy to prevent inter-
ruption with her work. and it is believed
that before this time she has succeeded in
diScharging her whole cargo
