THE public lands of Hawaii cannot
be disposed of except by special act of
Congress.
This decision" says Mr.. Ryan, who
is prime mover in this affair, lis good

Court of the United States, and we

MORE CARELESS DRIVING.
Man Knocked Down at Waikiki
but Has a Lucky Escape.

At Waikiki yesterday afternoon there
was a striking example of the criminal
negligence in driving which was de-
nounced by ''Viator" in Saturday s
Advertiser.
Several people were walking from
the Park toward Wright's Villa. Sud
denly and without one word of warn
ing the person on the outside was
knocked down and under the hoofs of a
swiftly moving horse. One of the
front wheels Of the buggy was partly
over his body before a stop was made.
The victim of carelessness and ignor-
ance was luckily not injured further
than few bruises and a good shak-
ing up. That he was not trampled un-
der the horses hoofs was not the fault
of the young sports" in the rig. The
street at the time was full of people
moving toward the cars. 1t was no
place to try a horses speed or give an
exhibition of driving. Possibly when
few more deaths result from the cri-
minal negligence of drivers and coro-
ners juries have returned verdicts of
manslaughter upon which charge con-
victions result, there will be a change.

FACTORY FOR MARE ISLAND.

w WASHINGTON, August IA new
factory for the manufacture of cloth
ing for the navy will be established by
the Government at the New York Navy

Navy has approved the plans today for
both factories at cost of about
$50 900.
With the proposed new factories the
Navy Department will rely on it's own
resources for the clothing of it's sailors.

STRIKE AT HOMESTEAD.

Discharge Of Fifteen Union Men Precipi,
tates . Walkout.
PIrTsBuRG, July 1.-The Post says a
strike was inaugurated at the Home
stead steel works yesterday which may
rival the famous battle between capital
and labor which was fought on that IA
nous spot several years ago. The dis
charging Of Is men at the plant during
the past three weeks is at the bottom Of
the trouble. These men were dismissed
because Of their affiiation with the
newly formed lodge Of the Amalga-
mated association. The strike was pre-
cipitated when. : committee Of nine
men, who sought the reinstatement Of
the discharged men, were also dis
charged for the same reason. Superin-
tendent Corey informed the men that
no organized men would be retained
though it became necessary to close
down the entire plant. Two Thousand
men have quit.

ROME. July 1.-The chamber of depu-

veritable battlefield. The tumult was
terrific. More than 20 deputies were in
jured in the struggle, including Baron
Sonnenino, who was seriously hurt
Baron Sonnenino is the leader Of the
majority and the probable future pre-
mier. The chamber will now be closed
until November.
A secret ballot having been ordered
upon certain bills the Socialists rushed
down to prevent it. Signor Sonnenino
advanced first to register his vote, but
the Socialist deputy, Signor Bissolati,
dealt him violent blow near the tenn
pie. Signor Sonnenino then seized him
by the throat and coat collar and threw
him down, receiving himself many
blows from the other Socialists who took
part in the affray. While this tussle
was i'll progress hand -to-hand combats
We're waging all around and the Con-
servatives, Signor Santini and Signor
Bertolini, used their fists upon the So
cialists with great effect. Signor Costa,
Socialist, with his sleeves turned up,
dealt blows right and left.
General Pelloux, pale and stupefied,
remained standing. He was on the
point of being attacked, when Admiral
Betallo raised chair and defended
him. The galleries joined in the up

Insurgent Force Preparing for An Assault
ON San Fernando.
MANILA, July IA collision between
the two armies at San Fernando seems
inevitable soon. The insurgents are
active all around the town and can be seen
working in the trenches to strengthen
their position. Day and night forces
are at work. 1t is estimated that 5000
men were seen marching in the road
north of the town yesterday morning.
The Americans turned out and manned
the defenses, expecting an attack. The
soldiers sleep in their clothes and break
fast at O'Clock in the morning, so as to
be ready for another daybreak assault.
The commission of three Spanish Off
GERS who entered the insurgent lines a
fortnight ago to make a final attempt to
arrange for the release of the Spanish
prisoners have not returned. Their
long absence has occasioned alarm.

the troops occupied the streets yester-

At the beginning Of the riots the mob

the barriers. Finally the troops charged
and the first shots were fred. Several
persons were wounded. In one case a
bullet passed through shop door and
killed shop assistant within. AS the
day advanced the disorders increased.

ANXIOUS FOR PEACE.
Schurman Finds the Southern
Islanders Conciliatory.
ONLY AWAIT DEFEAT OF AGUINALDO

Rain Falls Continually for Nine DAYS and
Mud Is Knee Deep in Several Of the
Temporary Camps - First Nebraska
Regiment on the Home Trip.
MANILA, July 3.-Professor J. G.
Schurman, of the United States advisory
commission for the Philippines, re-
turned to Manila yesterday from a three
weeks tour of the southern islands
He takes an entirely hopeful view of the
general conditions there. The intelli.
gent and substantial citizens desire an
American protectorate. The masses are
awaiting the settlement of the war in
the island of Luzon before declaring
themselves. They are chiefly anxious
to be undisturbed. The president OF
the town of Santa Nicolas, in the island
OF Cebu, said to Professor Schurman:
I'VE want peace, food and prosperity
We do not wish to fight. We would be
neutral
The president of the commission
thinks this declaration fairly expresses
the sentiments of the people in the
southern islands Of the archipelago
Many Of the towns there are in the
hands of small bands of Tagalos and the
people fear to endorse American rule
until they are certain that Aguinaldo
must be beaten. Let them once be con-
vinced of this and the allegiance of the
southern islands, Mr.. Schurman thinks,
can be secured by diplomacy.
The rain has fallen almost continually
for nine days. 1t has been tremend-
GUS downpour and the whole country is
flooded. The trenches at San Fernando
are bitches of water and mud is knee
deep in the temporary camps at several
OF the outlying towns. Some of the
permanent camps have been made fairly
comfortable by the erection of bamboo
shelters, rooted and floored.
According to the latest reports from
the province of Cavite the insurgents
leaders there are quarreling. Aguinal-
dos cousin, Baldomero Aguinaldo, has
been killed or imprisoned by General
Marianao Trias, commander Of the in
surgents in the southern district of Lu-
zon and most of his men have deserted

According to the story, while the
Panther was at San Juan, in command
OF Captain G. @. Rector, the greater Dor
ton Of her crew rebelled against the
food and asked to be transferred else
where. Several assertions occurred
and the departure of the cruiser, it is
said, hastened for fear that she would
be so seriously crippled from this cause
that she would be unable to leave.
On the voyage home it became neces-
sary to place a number of the crew i'm

figures cannot be given as to how many
men will be idle today. it is known that
more than $4,000 of them will be forced
to quit work temporarily at least. Sec
retary John Williams of the Amalga-

his opinion that a settlement would be

favor of coming to an agreement.
