NEW YORK, July 11.-From all
parts of the country come prompt and
hearty Endorsements of the Herald S
suggestion that the grades of admiral
and vice admiral in the navy should
be revived, and that Dewey should be
made admiral and SchIey vice admiral.
Tribute is universally paid to the
splendid work of these two officers
in the destruction of SPANS fleet, and

award should be given to them

PRINCESS WILL REMAIN.
She Will Go to Mana for a Short
Rest-May Visit States.

1t was announced in an afternoon
paper yesterday that the Princess
KaiuIani expected soon to leave hawaii
forever to take up her permanent res
idence in England.
The Advertiser was informed by
Hon. A. S. Cleghorn last evening that
the Princess has no such intentions,
whatever, and that the statement was
wholly unauthorized. The Princess
will remain in Hawaii Her interests
are all here. She has a deep love for
the land of her birth, and a sincere
affection for her people.
For several months past the Prin-
cess has been in very poor health and
feels the need of a change of climate.
For this reason she will go to the
country place of Mr.. Samuel Parker,
in Mana, Hawaii, early in August for
stay of perhaps two months
Should her health then be restored she
will return to Honolulu to remain,
otherwise she will go for a short rest
to the United States, where she has
many friends 1t is possible that
some time she may visit England
again.
The consummation of annexation
has not induced the Princess to make
these plans She has had them in
mind for some time, but has delayed
her departure for Mana to await the
arrival of her aunt, eX-Queen Liluoka-
Iani, whom she has seen but once, and
then for a few hours only, in nearly
ten years.

Informal Discussion in Cabinet at
Washington.
TERRITORY WITH DELEGATE
To Follow Present Constitution and
COde-Land LaWs-COasting.
Officers of Commission.

WASHINGTON, July 12-The new
possession of Hawaii was brought up
in the Cabinet today for a little in
formal discussion. Senator Cullom
has been selected as chairman Of the
Congressional Commissioners. At their
meeting today Cullom, Morgan and
Hit discussed as did the members of
the Cabinet, the form of government
which shall be given the Islands.
The prevailing view among the Pres
ident's counseIors and the Commits
sioners as well, is that the organic law
shall build on the lines of that under
which existing United. States terri
tories exist. 1t is regarded as just and
also as desirable that Hawaii should
have a delegate in Congress, and that
there should be legislative body pro-
vided. The Commissioners VIII exam
inc the present Constitution and code
of laws, and wherever the latter do not
conflict with the laws of this country
they will be permitted to stand.
The land laws of Hawaii relative to
Government control differ somewhat
from those of the United States. So far
as possible the Hawaiian law will be
preserved.
Senator Morgan said today that the
Commission hoped to finish its work
in two months after reaching Hawaii
and would probably report its recon-
mendations to Congress- But" he
continued, "this is no special hurry.
They can get along all right for long
time to come with their present laws
| The Treasury Department is wrestling
with the question of whether at once
trade with Honolulu becomes coasting
trade. In the Newlands resolution
there is a clause providing that the
customs laws of the Islands shall be
operative until the Commission reports
a scheme of government The ques-
| ton is whether this carries the ship
ping laws as we'll, and it is probable
owing to the fact that so many United
States ships are under charter, that ii
will be ruled that no change will be
made until Congress acts. The officers
| of the Commission will be: Disbursing
officer, Daniel A. Ray; Senator Cul-
lom's clerk, Secretary Henry S. Hayes
Congressman Hits clerk and steno-
grapher, w. NJ. Blumenberg, official
reporter of the Senate

Catholics to Give Thanks.

BALTIMORE, July 13. - Cardinal
Gibbons has prepared a circular to be
read in the Roman Catholic churches
on Sunday morning which is intended
to carry out the suggestion made by
President Mckinley that the people OF
the land unite in giving thanks for
the victory of the American fleet on
Santiago. The Cardinals letter calls
upon the people to return thanks to
Almighty God for his blessings upon
the arms of this land in the conflict
with the Spanish feet, for the victory
achieved and for the escape OF the
Americans with comparatively no loss
The circular further asks that prayers
be said for an early and blOodless end
to the war.

TALK ON CHILDHOOD.
Miss Aliens Address to the Sum
mer School Last Night.

Miss Allen gave a delightful talk Of
an hour at Progress hall last evening
on the subject of Childhood" The
room was all but filled with pupils
of the Summer school and people Of
the city. Most of those present were
ladies. :
Miss Allen handled her subject from
the standpoint of a teacher in the
kindergarten, and evinced a thorough
knowledge of it. She first discussed
the child nature, and then took up the
question of knowing and training 1t.
Of the work for children she observed
that cit is not a question of patience
but of sympathy" She agreed thor
oughly with Colonel Parker in encour-
aging the myth in training; in person
flying to intensity; in Santa Claus,
and in humoring whims to certain de
grees.
After the lecture a number of teach
ers gave instances in their schools
bearing upon the subjects treated by
Miss Allen.

A physician accompanied her across
the continent from birmingham, Penn.
where she had been attending school.
Mr.. Ena suggested taking his daughter
to one of the springs in California,

beneficial. The Enas will arrive in
August.

Senator Helm, of Washington state,
who was in Honolulu last winter
writes to his nephew, P. R. Helm, from
the Klondike, whittier he went direct
after leaving the Islands. He took
with him a party OF hardy Nor-westers
and made his way over the snowy
Chilcoot without accident. Dawson
City was undoubtedly reached weeks
ago, and the Senator strikes the gold
fields at the best season. Mr.. Helm
sent down fine series of kodak

hear everything that Secretary Gage,
members of the monetary conference,
and other advocates of the single gold
standard, might have to present in the
shape of a gold argument, to grant
hearings to representatives of the
American Bimetallic Union, was an un
precedented aud an uncalled for insult.
The executive committee OF the Ameri-
can Bimetallic Union sent very manly
and dignifed protest to the committee,
closing with the following appeal to the
love of fair play that every properly
constituted American has; $50 far as
we are aware, this is the first time that
in matter of so much Importance, q
great congressional committee engaged
in giving hearings on a proposition be-
fore it, has refused to accord full and

Gar Reed has one commendable trait
-frankness. When he learned that
the committee on territories was in
clined to favorably report bills for the
admission of Arizona, New Mexico and
Oklahoma, as states, he told the mem
bers flat-footed that " was useless for
them to do so, as he did not intend
that those territories should be admit
ted, so long as he had the power to
prevent, and the present conditions
continue to exist. He added that it
was simply question of gold against
silver, it being we'll known that each
of the territories named would send
two silver men to the Senate, if they
had the opportunity.

In marked contrast to the action of
the House Banking and Currency Com
mittse was that of the silver Senators
whose majority gives them the power
to prolong the financial debate in the
Senate, as long as they might wish to
do so, on the Teller resolution, declaF-
ing United States bonds to be payable
in silver at the option of the govern
ment. They merely desired to adopt
that resolution, as notice to the gold
standard administration that gold
standard legislation is an impossibilty
during the life of the present congress,
and to put certain Senators on record
for the benefit OF their constituents,
and in order to show that they had nc
desire to unnecessarily prolong the fl.
nancial debate, Senator Vest, who has
charge of the resolution, submitted ar
agreement that the vote be taken or
Thursday Of this week, which wal
adopted. The adoption of the resolu
ton by the Senate is certainty; the
House will, of course, indifference t.
to Car Reed allow it to be pigeon
holed.
