DEADLY MoLAsSES BARREL.
on Sunday Night IS Ex-
planned ProsaicsIy.

Now it is the deadly molasses barrel.
The explosion which brought out the
police force Sunday night and caused
Deputy Sheriff Chillingworth and a
squad to make careful investigation in
several Fort street stores. was nothing
more or less than a common, everyday
barrel full Of molasses, which contained
the essence Of lyddite.
The barrel belonged to Hustace &
Company, ErOcers, whose store is Iocat-
ed on King street near the old Airing
ton Hotel premises. 1t was in the rear
Of the store. When an employee opened
the establishment yesterday morning
he was confronted with a scene of de-
struction. In fact the place was "all
stuck up AIolasses was strewn every
where.
Molasses will ferment when closed
tightly and Hustace's barrel had gem
Grated enough gas to bring on spon-
taneous combustion followed by an ex-
plosion which was sufficient to dis
lodge even the Salvation Army.

CEMETERY PLAN
NOT SATISFACTORY
Government Wants Ten per
cent Of the Cost of
the Lots.

The Territorial Government will not
accept the proposal Of the Rapid Tran
sit Company and grant it a fifty-acre
tract of land for a cemetery at Dia-
mond Head free of cost in consideration
Of the construction by the company of
its lines to the proposed site Of the
burying ground.
Superintendent McCandless has ad-
dressed a letter 10 G. G. Ballentyne of
the Rapid Transit Company in which
he states that the Government will not
give the land free Of cost Instead of
that be proposes that the company
agree TO pay the government ten per
cent Of the cost of all lots sold in the
cemetery. II is likewise required that
the company submit a schedule of
charges for digging graves and for the
care and maintenance of the lots.
The letter was submitted al the meet
ing of the Council yesterday morning
and was approved. The Government
officials viii take the matter further
under consideration when the reply Of
the company is submitted.
". O. Smith appeared before the
Council 10 request that the terms of
the grant to the Wahiawa Company
for the right to construct a dam on
Government land be modified. In this
grant it was stipulated that ten per
cent Of the gross profits of the company
be paid to the Government. with a
minimum Of $4,000 per annum. He re-
quested that this minimum be reduced
10 $4,000 for it would be impossible for
the settlers to pay such a large sum
and he also asked that it be agreed
that no payment should be required for
the first two years save ten per cent
on any dividends which may be declar-
Cd during that period. Both of these
requests were granted.
7. f. Lansing was granted a right of
way to lay a pipe from the Waiahole
stream across Government land but it
was provided that this grant gave no
further water rights. beyond those al
ready owned by Mr. Lansing 1t was
further provided that the pipe must not
interfere with the use Of the land nor
obstruct the stream. The right Of way
was granted for thirty years
\ schedule Of port charges for Hilo
was submitted by Mr.. McCandless but
as fl was in the form Of a suggestion
it was only discussed and a further
. schedule viii be adopted.

attribute the increased demand for

MONTANA MAN MUST GO.
Clark, the Committee Says. Paid Too Mech
for His TOga.


Clark, the Committee Says. Paid Too Mach
for His Toga. ,
Washington, April 1.-The unani.
nous report of the committee on privi-
leges and elections recommending the
unseating of Senator w. A. Clark, OF
Montana, was the chief subjectOf COM
ment at the capitol yesterday. This is
generally interpreted to mean that an
early vote will be taken on his case
and that he will be unseated. That
the senate without hearing the evil
dence or going into the subject should
go against unanimous committee re-
port is not regarded within the
range of possibilities. That Senator
Clark may resign before the case is
voted on is regarded as highly prob
able. If there had been a minority re-
port iE his favor Clark was prepared
to put up stiff fight in the senate.
The attempt to bride the supreme
court of Montana to dismiss the Well
come disbarment proceedings is said to
have proved his Waterloo. The COM
mittee was impressed with the testi-
mony of Justices Piggott and Hunt.
and were morally certain that Clark S
agents had offered them 500, 900 apiece
to affect their decision. The evidence
taken before the committee showed to
a moral certainty that Clark had ex-
pended no less than $1,00O.0O0 in the
first outlay to bride the Montana leg
islature.
Half as much again, 1t is said, was
used in the grand jury investigation
and the Welcome disbarment proceed
ings. Since then Clark has been at
enormous expense for attorneys fees
and the expense of his hearing before
the committee, and conservative esti-
mates put the cost of his venture into
the sum of about $2,50O.0OO. His in
come Is estimated at $40O0,000 a year.

PORTO RICO BILL A LAW.
Measure Passes House and Is Signed by
the President.


the President.
Washington, April 13.-The Porto
Rico bill passed the house of repre-
sentatives by eight majority. The
vote was. Yeas, 16l; nays. 1873. Speak
err Henderson announced the result at
5:32 o'clock. Great cheering followed
on the Republican side. The galleries,
crowded to suffocation, remained ST.
lent.
President Mckinley signed the bill
and temporary government OF the
colonial sort is assured for the island.
Nine Republicans voted against the
bill solely because they saw no justice,
reason or sense in doing one thing
with Porto Rico and another with Ha-
wall. These Republicans were: Crum-
packer Of Indiana, Fletcher of Mime
sofa. Heatwole of Minnesota, Mccall
of Massachusetts,, Litdefield OF Maine,
Lorimer Of Illinois. Lane of Iowa,
Henry C. Smith of Michigan and War
ner of Illinois.
Mr. Sibley of Pennsylvania was the
only Democrat who voted outright for
the bill. Tive others, Messrs. Davey
and Meyer. were paired in its support.
Eleven answered present, thus refus-
ing to vote, and there were eighteen
pairs.
Besides the temporary 10 per cent.
tariff provision, the prospective law
arranges for complete system of civ
II government for Porto Rico. This lat
ter is chiefly the handiwork of Senator
Foraker, and the changes in the house
bill, made by the senate in accordance
with the Foraker plan. were the sub
ject of heated debate prior to the deci-
Siye vote

Worlds Fair of 1900 Ushered in with
Music and Orations.
Paris, April 16.-The worlds fair Of
1900 was officially opened Saturday.
The weather was bright, with light
clouds, not enough to obscure the sun.
but enhancing with light and shade
the brilliancy of the spectacle Of the
exposition. The ceremonies of open
ing began at 2 p. M, when President
LOubet, the official party, followed by
the foreign ambassadors in full dress,
the ministry and exposition commits
sioners on foot. proceeded up the
Champs de Mars to the Halle de
Festes. The hall was gOrgeOusly dec
Grated with flags and tapestries.
Within was big orchestra and a
chorus of mixed voices was banked
around the platform on which were
grouped the officials. The auditorium
was crowded with invited guests. The
ceremonies opened with the singing Of
the "Marseillaise" by the chorus and
audience, after which the orchestra
played Massanet's Marcia SOlen-
nellie" Then Nj. Millerand, in his ca
pacity of minister of commerce, made
a speech handing the exposition over
to President LOubet.
The president then replied to the
minister of commerce and declared
the exposition open. At the conclu-
sion of the speech-making, Saint
Saens' ''Hymne to Victor Hugo" was
rendered by chorus and orchestra and
the ceremonies ended with the play
ing of the March Her0iQue."
