tude Towards Witnesses Favorable to
the Defendant-Agitation in Paris.

LONDON, August 19-Revelations of
further forgeries, disavowals by for
eign diplomatists and even Colonel Pic
quarts evidence seem to fail to remove
the deepening conviction in the minds
of spectators at the cOurt-martlal be-
ing held in Rennes that Captain Drey-
fus has no chance of acquittal. 1t is
alleged that the members of the court
martial have refused to even take the
trouble to read the copies of the Court
of Cessation evidence on the ground
that they are fully competent to con-
duct an Independent inquiry and that
this accounts for the ignorance display
ed at the trial and the tedious Charac-
ter of the proceedings. Advocate Mon
ard, who is assisting Maitre Demange
of counsel for the defense and who
watched the progress of the case yes
terday, could not help remarking the
Partially Colonel Jouaust, president OF
the court-martial, displayed, especial
ly his hostility toward Colonel Picquart,
who gave testimony in favor of the ac-
cused man. Should Maitre Labor, as
now seems likely, resume his place as
chief counsel for the defense Monday
or Tuesday, it is probable that his pro-
VoCatiVe manner in cross eXamining
will irritate the court much more than
NJ. Demange's suave style. and further
his delicate physical aspect will be con-
sidered
A strong agitation is beginning to
be manifested in Paris for the convoca-
ton of the Chamber of Deputies
Should a majority of the members sup
port the demand the Government will
be compelled to consent. thus letting
loose the floodgates of Interpolation on

de Gallifet, the Minister of War, is a
strong man, however, and may, per-
haps, be able to cope with the situation.

SHERIFF ANDREWS PROPOSAL.
Plan for Temporary Management of
Hilo Hospital

Sheriff Andrews of Hawaii, in a COM
munication to the Board of Health,
makes the following suggestion as a
modus vivendi for keeping the HilO
Hospital running until appropriations
for the next year are available.
IF the Government will allow us, or
a committee of the public spirited citi-
zens of Hilo, to run the hospital as a
private institution, with 800 allowance
and the regular pay roll, using the re-
ceipts to help out, and making good
any deficiency by local subscription, l
think it can be made to work until De-
cember l."
The Hilo Tribune says 1.-THE COM
mittee of the Victorian Annex have now
come forward and say that if the Gov
eminent will turn the hospital over to
them they will run the whole affair
without asking a cent from the Board
of Health appropriation, and spend
more money on it's care than it is now
getting from the same board"

WAIALUA HOTEL.

The Waialua hotel is getting to be
very popular as place to run down to
for the evening, and then return next
morning in time for business. From the
success which has attended this insti-
tuition from the outset, it is clearly
shown that first-class hotel, at some
pleasant resort, run in an up-to-date
fashion need not depend on tourist trav-
ell for it's patronage, but that the local
