BAD CONDITIONS IN HAWAII
SALT LAKER RETURNS FROM
THE ISLANDS.
Il. G. Jenkins Has Been Planting
Sugar For Two Years = king"
Dole and Missionary Compact.

H. G. Jenkin of the Jenkin Drug
company of Salt Lake who has been
planting sugar in Hawaii for the past
two years, arrived in town yesterday,
and is at the Manitou.
1.-THE sugar cane crop is about eight
tons to the acre" said he, but this
year a remarkable increase has been
recorded; N fact the output is far
beyond what it has been in previous
years, so much so that L couldn't. with
any degree OF certainty, name the
figure. Twenty-Five million dollars of
American capital has been invested
since the islands were annexed. The
American Sugar company's plantation
consists of 1900 acres on the island of
Mani, the second largest of the group,
but there are other plantations Of $4,000
and 10000 acres cultivdting sugar cane.
The cane is converted into brown
sugar on the islands and then shipped
to San Francisco refineries. The coffee
berries are also forwarded to San
Francisco and there split and roasted.
1.-The politics of the islands are in a
deplorable condition and are bossed by
the missionary compact composed of
Dole and his retainerS. The missionary
ing consists of feathering their nests
by dispoSing of government lands and
pocketing the proceeds. The present
so-called government is misnomer;
it is nothing more than another name
for the missionary compact, and they
are doing their governing by a high
handed process. This band of sharks
devised a set of regulations concerning
the occupation and ownership CT gov
eminent lands, and decided that a
patent would not be granted until a
settler had spent ten years cultivating
the property; in the meantime they
intended to extOrt rental and pocket
it. About 10000 acres of good sugar
and coffee lands were thus controlled
by the compact Squatters took pos
session of most of it and refused to
either move or pay tribute to King
Dole and his court. The squatters ap-
pealed to the United States attorney
general who decided that the mission
airy compact should dispose of no more
government lands until congress had
enacted some sort of law concerning
them. The squatters are still squatting
and say they'll fight to the bitter end.
Formerly the natives worshipped
wooden idols, but since the advent Of
the missionary compact the natives
have ceased to worship images and
VOLCANOES. and have substituted the
almighty dollar The natives who
have been Christianized consist of
Catholics and Mormons, about ten
Catholics to one of other denomina-
tions.
There are more racial mixtures in
the Hawaiian islands than in any other
part of the world: all possible kinds
of crossbreeds and mixtures abound.

Portuguese, and natives with anything

PROSPECTS OF SUFFERING IN
ALASKA THIS WINTER.
War Department Taking Matter In
Hand and Arranging to Send Yes
sells North.

Washington, Sept 20.-General Shat
:er has sent to the war department a
copy of a dispatch which he has re-
ceived from Major p. H. Ray. 1t is
dated St. Michael, Aug. 81, and is as
follows:
Il find at Anvil and along the beach
between 5000 and 1880 people. Fully
:. 500 of them win be compelled to
leave there before the close of naviga-
ton. owing to lack of fuel and shell
ter From all 1 can learn there win be
but three steamers here to return be-
fore the season closes. Unless the peo-
pie can get away there will be great
suffering and probable loss of life,
which it Will be impossible TO amelio-
rate.
AS a rule, all have plenty of money
to pay their passage. / therefore sug-
gest that the transportation companies
be warned of the condition of affairs,
and that the treasury department be
asked to order cutters there asdate as
possible to meet any emergency.
The Cape Nome district is one of
the richest ever discovered in our
country, and will rival the Klondike.
The beach washing is a godsend to the
destitute stranded here. There are
from 600 to LOCO people along the beacs
and they are taking out from $40 to $3.50
Per day per man with rockers. The
gulch district is as yet not fully devel-
oped, but shows great richness. wher-
ever worked. 1 look for the greatest
results next season. Will make a full
report from Fort Egbart L sail from
here to that point tomorrow"
General Shafter says he has notified
the transportation companies of the
amount of patronage they can expect if
they have ships at Fort st. Michael to
bring people down.

Central and Southern Pacific railways
has been bought by Speyer- &. Co., bank
erS of this city. 1t was said in this
city last night by a gentleman convers-
ant with the affairs of the two com
panies that Speyer & Co. had arranged
recently to purchase q large block of
these securities, but he could not tell
whether the interest acquired was Mr.
Crocker's or the Stanford holding.
The Journals informant, however.
said that he could deny report that
the deal was part of the Vanderbilt
scheme for control of a transcontinen-
tai railway system.
There is no Vanderbilt money in
this" he continued. Mr. Speyer has
been very friendly to C. P. Huntington.
The firm put through the reorganiza-
ton of the Central Pacific. Mr.. Speyer
is not buying, as I understand, for Mr..
Huntington, but is taking over as OPP
portunity offers, the holders of others
who are not in sympathy with Mr.
Huntington's interests, and will hold
them on his own account"
Mr.. Speyer was in San Francisco a
short time ago and it was understood
ct that time that a. large deal in Cen
trail Pacific was in the wind
1t is understood that George Crock
er's interest is the last to be disposed
of by the five members of that family,
who owned a fifth interest in the prop
critics.

They Will Visit Salt Lake City On
Saturday.
COME ON SPECIAL TRAIN
ENTERTAINED BY THE LOCAL
RAILROAD MEN.
Mr.. Heintz Says the Visit Will Mean
Much to This City - He Speaks
Hopefully of the Outlook For An
Improvement In the Passenger
Traffic.

Acting Passenger Agent George w.
turned last night from Chicago. where
he has been for the past ten days. Be-
yond stating that his trip was one of
business, Mr.. Heintz would not say
what were the specific matters that took
him east. He stopped over a few days
at Denver on his way home, and made
all necessary arrangements for the
visit of the American Association of
Travelling Passenger Agents 10 this
city. In speaking of this matter Mr..
Heintz said:
Over 100 of the members of the as
ISOLATION will visit this city on Satur-
day. They have been rendered a spe-
cial train by the Rio Grande Western
and will leave GIenwood Springs Fri
day night after their ball at that resort,
reaching this city Saturday noon. They
will remain here over Sunday. 1t is the
purpose of the railroad men of Salt
Lake City to make the visit of the pas
senSer agents an enjoyable one. We
realize how much it means to the city
in the way of advertising, and nothing
will be left undone that can tend in
any way to show the'eity to our guests.
Their visit will mean great deal in
much business in the future to Salt
Lake. While they are in the city the
agents. will be taken to the lake, the
tabernacle, Salt Palace and over and
around the city generally. They will
return to Denver on Sunday night on
special train that will be rendered them
by the Rio Grande Western"
A Bright Outlook.
Speaking of the outlook for .,assen-
ger business Mr.. Heintz said: There
is every indication that there will be a
very large tourist traffic to California
this winter. The outlook is very prom
ising, in fact, the passenger BUSINESS is
steady and firm, and will, think, con-
tinue so. From all that 1 could see
while in Chicago the east is enjoying
period of prosperity such as has not
been experienced for years. The ho-
tells are crowded and it is impossible to
get accommodations at the Auditorium
Annex, so you may judge of the condi-
tons for yourself. 1 believe that many
tourists will visit Salt Lake City this
winter on their way to California, and
know that many of them will stop
here on their way back to the east.
This will mean great deal to Utah if
only the people realize it, for there is
no doubt but that many of these people
may ultimately be induced to locate in
Salt Lake City,
Mr.. Heintz's reference to the impor-
tance of the visit of the travelling pas
senSer agents means that they will be
instrumental in sending a great deal of
passenger traffic business to Salt Lake
City if they so desire. In addition to
what has been outlined it is more than
probable that the railroad men of the
city will make some special arrange
ments for the entertainment of the
passenger agents while, they are here.
