sLHLEY'S FLEET.
1t Will Not Visit South Africa as
Was Expected.

NEW YORK. May "a special to tn,
Tribune from Washington says: Admir-.
al Schleys fleet will remain in South
American waters for the next six months
at least. The belief that his ships would
have to go TO Cape Town to be dockeo
or else come home for that purpose soon
has been met by an order from the Navy
Department suspending for his feet the
regulation which compels the docking o.
every vessel once in six months. This
period was already overdue for all three
ships of the South Atlantic station, but
as there appears to be no particular rea-
son for the Chicago, the Montgomery or
the Wilmington to develop great speed
AT the present time the urgency of dock
ing Is not recognized II is admitted,
however, at the Department that in case
docking was imperative in the case OF
one of these vessels she would be brought
to the United States for the purpose, In
preference TO sending her to Cape Town,
as II is well known that no American
warship would he welcome in British
South African waters Just now.
Experienced naval officers have been
"sh wishes In this respect by all the
great Powers. In every other war of re-
cent date the fleets OF neutral Powers
Nave swarmed to the vicinity OF hos
Titles. At one time 1t was feared that
the visit of Admiral Schley's little fleet
to Cape Town might induce other mar
. 'me Powers to send vessels there, but.
according to Admiral Schley's friends
this excuse no longer has any applicn-
tIon other than to connne the Admiral
to South American ports.

The closing exercises OF KaNaIahac

waiian Evangelical Association or

friends and parents were present. One
pleasing feature was the examination

year.
before the visitation of the plague
over a hundred were in attendance:
ater. on the establishment of the quar-
antIne just after the holidays, some OF
the pupils failed to return. Good work
mas been done In the school along
manual lines and numerous fancy arti-
cles, fans. lauhala work. ETC., were on
sale. Coffee and cake were furnished
dt ten cents plate. The principal and
.eachers are to be congratulated for SO
successful a showing after so difficult
year. Owing to the generosity of
certain friends the year closes with q
balance in the treasury.
At noon the members of the Associa-
dion went in body to pay their re-
spects to the lately returned ex-queen
Liliuokalani and met a gracious recep-
ton.
Foreign missions came up for discus
sion during the afternoon session and II
was voted that the churches continue
their usual contributions. There was a
lengthy discussion of the condition OF
the theological School. 1t was the
unanimous feeling of the Association
that large part of the teaching in the
school should still be in Hawaiian, and
committee of five was appointed u
memorabilia the Hawaiian Board to the
end that the entire matter of the reor-
ganizatlon of the Theological School be
taken into consideration. Mr.. Lydgate' S
name was often on the lips of the
speakers as one they would like to have
as a teacher in the school. Also the
name of Desha.

The big McCully Tract has passed in
TO the control of George Paris after 9
years diily-dallying in effecting the
bargain. The papers were signed and
the confirmation of the deal made las,

subdivlded into lots. The company is
20 have the land filled in and bitumin-
Gus streets will be laid The entire
1rea comprises about $50 acres and
when completely laid out will make a
splendid addition to Honolulu's out
lying suburbs.
The property begins at the turn Of
the Waikiki road from King street,
directly adjoining that of John Cum
Minis. Paris secures control OF all the
.easeholds which have been retained by
Chinese for a number of years. AS
stated some weeks ago the land is to be
filed in to the level of the King street
and Waikiki road datum lines. 1t Is
proposed to have the sewer system ex-
tended through all the subdivisions of
the big tract and connect it with a suffi-

THE BoER ENJOYS.
What Relations the United States

NEW YORK. May 2s.--The American

prominent Republicans and Democrats IL

relations between this country and th'

ment of setting foot on American soil
willing or involuntary tools In the hands
of Tammany, which tries to exploit this
Beer question for the advantage of the
Democratic party against the Admins

The Senate could not admit the Boer en-
voys to the floor for the simple reason
that in doing so II would commit an act
tantamount to "A breach of strict neutral
lty which the United States Government
and the people desire to strictly adhere
to. 1t Is II positive fact that President
Mckinley and his Secretary OF State
Colonel Hay, have the approval of the
people of the United States in their re-
fusal to 20 any further than they have
done in favor of the Beers. They went
even beyond the limit set by The Hague

admiration the courageous valor of the

WORSE THAN FIRST RE.
PORTED.

Generally the first reports of a
great disaster are exaggerated,
but this was not the case with the
Galveston catastrophe. Startling
as were the early accounts of the
calamity, they by no means con-
veyed an adequate conception of
the awful destruction of life and
property caused by the CONFUSION
of nature that in a few hours des-
troyed a thriving and prosperous
city. The number of lives lost
far exceeds that intimated by first
reports and the amount of property
destroyed is much greater than
was indicated by the early press
dispatches.
The suffering caused by this
awful visitation is beyond the con-
ception of those living at a dis
lance from the scene Of devasta-
ton. W. understand that a ter
rible havoc has been wrought and
that men, women and children
have been left destitute and are in
need of assistance, but we cannot
comprehend the full significance
of the appalling disaster that has
befallen the people of Galveston
in their homes. Only those who
went through the ordeal and came
out alive can do that, and it is
doubtful if even they fully realize
the greatness of the horror. It is
in fact almost beyond human con-
ception.
But imperfect as is the general
appreciation of the desolation and
suffering due to the calamity, still
it is sufficient to stir the people in
all parts of the country to charl-
table deeds. The purse strings of
the we'll to do and the rich inevery
fcity in the land have been unloos.
