OF INTEREST TO WBEELMEN.

The members OF the New-Yorx Division OF the
League of American Wheelmen are much put out
at the manner in which THE Bulletin" the official
organ of the league, conducted last year w
S Bull the secretary OF the division YES
terday issued a circular to the members of the
National Assembly in which he says In part:
We believe that the official organ should be pub
lished in the interest of the league alone The
editor or the publisher should never be hammered
by being obliged to consider first the advertiser
point OF view, and, secondly, the best interests

periodical should be the league. first last and ali

he is necessarily forced into the dangerous position
of considering the advertisers interests paramount

The Bulletin the advantage of local habitatiou

THE WORLDS NAvIEs.

The official parliamentary list of the
fleets of the powers has recently been
published According to this the Brit
sh fleet built and building amounts to
4SS vessels, yet according to the tele-
grams fleet of $50 ships is being mo-
bilized. This fleet must have in it the
Atlantic liners which can be armed,
the St. Paul, the St. Louis and others
were armed by the American Govern
ment during the Spanish war.
The list gives the following fleets,
built or building for other powers:-
France, 42S Russia, 300; Germany, POS;
Italy, 227 United States, 1922; Japan,
ia. All these powers could arm a con-
siderable auxiliary navy, except Rus
STA.
In ships Great Britain heads
the list with SO built and II building;
France has 81 built and is building 4;
Russia has IL battle-ships and IL more
building; Germany IS built and build
ing; Italy Is built and building; Unit
ed States built and II building, and
| Japan built and 4 building.
| Opinions are divided as to the value
of battle ships. The American war
with Spain showed that they were very
valuable, but then experts come for
ward and say that the test was not
sufficient. At all events the United
States naval department believes in
them for out of the seven naval powers
given in the list the United States
stands third in the class of battle-ships
building, Great Britain having II under
way, Russia II and the United States
II.
A great naval war in narrow waters,
such as might be waged by the Euro
pean powers may hinge upon the
flotillas of torpedo boats. In this arm
France excels every other power. She
has 219 against 95 for Great Britain,
ia Russia, 113 Germany, 144 Italy, 16
United States and 20 Japan. The two
Anglo-Saxon nations, and the two ma
tons undoubtedly possessing the best
sailors, though they do not neglect this
naval arm, evidently do not give it that
prominence which the continental ma
tions of Europe do
There is one arm which France has,
but which other nations have not, and
that is submarine boats. OF these sne

ton. No other nation has adopted YES
sells of this description, though nearly
all have been making experiments in
this direction The French submarine
boat may revoutionize marine war
fare, but it will take an actual war to
put it to the test
The possibility of a universal explos-
ion in the Eastern Hemisphere during
the summer or even in the early spring,
makes the naval strength of the varI-
GUS European powers matter of inter-
est to all readers.

but it is a fact that one class, and one
class alone, is that among which the
plague runs riot One has only to read
the lists of death from plague to see
the truth of the statement.
The trouble with the Chinese is that
they will congregate in small rooms.
They are willing to take their pleasure
in a foetid atmosphere. Personally
they are clean. They battle, after a
fashion. They are particular about
their clothes, but they don't care out
of what fostering novels they get their
clothes, and they don't care, when the
passion of play is on them with whom
they mingle.
There are many houses in this city
whose servants arrive in the most i'm
maculate of linen and the most well
brushed of cloch overclotehs, who have
spent their afternoons in the most moi
some of dens, gambling or even inno-
Gently playing some game for amuse-
ment. These men do not realize, nor
do their employers realize the risks
that are run. They come in contact
with men of every class of Chinese
society-men from reeking dens of
filth in distant valleys and from equally
reelxing dens of filth in or near the
town. And it is here that lies the dan
ger to the foreigner and the Hawaiian.
1t is a serious thing to accuse a peo-
pie, but the figures of mortality show
where the fault lies and where reform
must be made not only in the old China
town, but in every Chinese shanty
throughout the group.

THE CAT AND MOUSE AGAIN


The plague-one almost believes that
it is a malignant demon, a real en-
tity-has been playing the cat and
mouse act upon us once more. We were
free from a case of plague for twelve
days, we had entered upon the thir-
teenth of freedom from the pest and
then it came down upon us with sedge
hammer power, giving us two deaths
and two suspect cases.
The city was breathing freely. Plans
were being laid for business and for
pleasure in which no calculation of
plague came in, and everything seemed
to be going so much more smoothly.
Every one began to feel that a pres
sure, which was a very distinct one,
had been taken off, and that we all
from the highest to the lowest, from the
richest to the poorest might breathe
more freely-undoubtedly it was ii
cruel blow.
But, after ALL we must not lose
courage on account of such a set back
Dr. Wood has told us that we should
have sporadic cases. He told us so
then gave us his hope that in thirty days
we should see the last of the plague.
His prophecy seemed on the eve of full
flment, but like many a human fore
cast it failed. None the less, if as to
absolute time the President of the
Board of Health was not exactly cor
rect, his forecast has been in the main
I'M. -
days, then came a few cases. 1t let
up again for twelve days and again
we have a few cases. 1t may put us
back in quarantine matters, but our
real advance in conquerfng the plague
is marked. The dread disease is beaten,
but it shows itself spasmodically, and
the probability is that the habits of
some of the people help to foster it.
There is no use in feeling down cast
about the matter We must meet the
situation like men and women of the
gallant races that we belong to, and
surmount the barrier which for the
present isolates us in a great measure
from the outside world.
What are the causes of these latter
outbreaks? It is difficult to tell, but
they seem to lie in the habits of the
Chinese. We have cleaned out, or had
cleaned out for us Chinatown, but there
are many foul blots around the city and
until we have these places thoroughly
put in order we may look for similar
trouble. 1t is a very hard thing to say
in such polyglot community as ours,
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1900-02-20

President Wood made some pertinent
remarks relative to the plague. with
the best of our efforts" said the Presi-
dent, II shall not feel safe here till a
year after the plague has disappeared"
and then he went to point out that
Hongkong kept thinking it was rid of
the plague, and still it would return
the reason being that it was an insani-
tary city. Until Honolulu is absolutely
a sanitary city we may look for the re-
currence of plague.
DR.. Woods is a warning voice, and
its tones have been heard and listened
to by the Executive Council and the
Council of State has alike listened to
it. The sewerage system is to be ex-
tended to it's full limit and nearly $780,
600 have been appropriated for its ex-
tension Meanwhile 100000 more have
been voted for fighting the plague,
which will be used in cleaning and in
general expenses. Part of this should
be devoted to the destruction of Chinese
fancy foodstuffs which have been i'm
ported and certainly are a menace 10
health.

1t is now stated that the rats were
frightened of the rude wooden recepta-
cles in which the Rhoditm scented
dainty was placed. Everyone knows
that no self respecting Hawaiian rat
will eat out of any thing under a
Royal Worcester saucer, or Dresden
plate. AS soon as the rats can over
come their aversion to the receptacles
they will dig through the lard till they
reach the poison at the bottom, that
it where it is insidiously concealed. No
one would put poison on top.

The Salvation Army people intend to
import special officers to work among
the fallen women of the city. This is
a distinct branch of the army work and
at present no specialists are on the
spot. Major Wood will detach some OF
the Salvation Army ladies to assist in
the work inaugurated by Mrs. Whitney
and others, but their present duties are
such that they cannot undertake to
devote themselves entirely to the work.

The condition of Molokai, with its
epidemic Of fever, as reported by r. H.
Hitchcock, is really very serious. If
there are now 200 cases and only two
doctors. the need of the Island for
medical aid, medicines and nurses is
really great. If there were some six
cases of plague every one would be
having fits, but there are some things
which are worse than plague, as far as
the number of cases is concerned.
