About Iron River.

Frank Drake. of lronwood,
chief engineer for the Oliver
company, was here this week,
and with A. II. Silliman, OF the
Riverton mine. surveyed u route
for changing the course of Iron
river As near rs we can ascer.
tain dam will be put across the
river on the south side of the
county road bridg and a chan
mel will be made 10 run some ten
or fifteen rods west OF the pres
ent bed OF the river until almost
opposite shaft three, when the
river will follow its natural
course until the dam near the
Isabella mine is reached. AT
this point another channel will
be made and will follow near the
railroad track until the second
bend in the river is reached
when il will follow lis natural
course again. This plan will
divert the river from its close
proximity 10 the Miller and No.
3 shafts. and also the Dober
mine, allowing work TO progress
without so much water TO be
taken care of or danger OF caving
i'm until after the ore is removed.
This will be quite an undertake
ing. but the Oliver company is
amply able to carry the plan
through to success.
The new working shaft at the
Dober mine has been carried
down TO a depth of about seven
ty. five feet. Further work is
greatly hindered owing TO the
quantity of water which runs
into the shaft, the present pump
inc outfit being unable to handle

few days, which, when placed in
position, will probably take care

hOAR'S REQUEST DENIED.
To Comply is Incompatible with
Public Interest.

Washington, Jan. II. - The
president has decided it to be in
compatible with the public inter
est to comply with the request
contained in the Hoar resolution
to supply the senate with the in
structions given the American
peace commissioners. If any
reasons are given for the declina-
tion the leading one will be the
fact that as the treaty is subject to
action in Spain, even after ratifi-
cation by the senate, its consum-
nation might be jeopardized by
the publication at this stage of the
confidential instructions.

GENERAL EGAN
CREATES SENSATION,
His Testimony In War Invesh-

HE SAYS THAT MILES LIED.

Washington, Jan. 12.-General
Egan created a sensation in the
war investigation today. He be-
came very much excited as he re-
ferred to General Miles statement
to the effect that the soldiers had
been given canned beef as an ex-
pertinent, and tears came to his
eyes when he said: He lies in
every hair of his head. He lies
wilfully and maliciously. If he
lies, and l say he does, he should
be drummed out of the army and
locked up. His statement is an
absolute falsehood, and gross libel,
and he should be held to account
for it."

Letters from Hong Kong Make
Serious Charges Against Kaiser.
WANTS C0ALING STATION,

San Francisco, Jan. 2-Advices
received here from Hong Kong,
written by prominent Germans,
say that Germany is strongly
encouraging Asuinaldo. 1t is
known that representatives of the
German government have held
several secret conferences with
Aguinaldo. One of the letters say
that the recent plots of the Fill
pino chief were advised by Prince
Henry of Prussia, and that he as
sured Aguinaldo that Germany
would aid the Filipinos to secure
all they k of the Americans.
Some letters go so far as to state
that the aid mentioned would con-
sist of money and arms. All Ger
many would ask in return would
be coaling station in case Aguin-
aldo comes into possession of the
Islands.

These reassuring advices afford
the war department more knowl-
edge of the situation than any
thing that has been heard from
Otis for more than a week. The
department is not informed of the
exact progress made in the nego-
tiations with Aguinaldo, but they
are satisfied that trouble has been
averted for the present at least.
A censorship has been estab-
llshed by General Otis at Manila.
While the war department would
not admit the fact up to this time,
they ordered this for the purpose
of preventing Aguinaldo from re-
ceiving too encouraging advices
from the Filipino junta at Paris
and from Agoncillo at Washing
ton.

A NEW THEORY.

The Spiritualists have met with
very serious loss. One of the most illus
trious of their number, NJ. Camille
Flammarion, now rejects their doc
trines, disavows a book which he be-
lieved himself to have written by the
dictation of Calico, and declares that
no human being can boast of having
held communication with the spirit of
one departed. The following are the
circumstances that have converted NJ.
NJ. Flammarion: His Master, Allen
Kardee, formerly published a work
which he modestly called LA Genese,"
and which is a sort of Bible of Spirit
ualism This work was inspired, he
said, by the spirit of Calico, manifest
ed through medium who was no other
than NJ. Flammarion. A large part of
La Genese" is devoted to the descrp-
ton of the heavens, and it states that
Jupiter has four satellites and Saturn
eight. Since the appearance of this
book, an additional satellite has been
discovered belonging to each of these
planets; Calico must therefore have
been mistaken. This, NJ. Flammarion
believs to be nadmissible, and that
consequently it was not Calico that
dictated La Genese" to him.
He is confident that it was his own
mind, the eXternalized mind of NJ
Flammarion, which has only expressed
what was known in his day and what
. he actually thought. NJ. Flammarion
bellows that it is always thus. So-called

perienced exactly what the Moore-Rob-
erts Company are going through-the
total lack of appreciation by Honolulu
ties of conscientious and clever work.
When Mr.. Cochrane Monday night on

and without an apparent suspicion OF
sarcasm. thanked the house (such as 1t
was) for their support and patronage.
I believe nearly all of the scanty audi

siderably more money than they took
in at the doors. Their report in Frisco
of the welcome of HOnoluluites will not
be without effect. Is it any wonder
that any organization of merit needs
ready money assurance before they
come here. There is another matter
which has been more fully demonstrate
ed since the Roberts Company came
here and hard one to remedy. Mr..
Irwin did not build the Opera House as
a money maker he built it for the good
of the Island. Good! But when a
theater is not run on business prnci
pies, there is always trouble. When

Opera House first-class stage man
ager, Arnold. who whatever his per-
chant for other peoples money thor
oughly knew his business. He had
licked into shape some few stage hands
and kept things in fair shape. There is
now no one. The electrician supplied
by the theatre has absolutely no knowl-
edge of his business as applied to stage
land and is not unusually brilliant in
any way. Pollard who has been acting
as house stage manager has or is in
tending to leave the Islands, and there
are absolutely no stage hands. Hence
the strange vagaries and long waits of
the Moore Roberts Company. Audi

True Irish Wit.-Michael Joseph

can was brought before him charged
with suspicious conduct, and the con-
stable swore, among other things, that
he was wearing a Republican" hat.
Does Your Honor know what tina:

that it means hat without a crown.
