NEWS FROM HAWAII.
Two Fresh Plague Cases Reported
March 25.

Two Fresh Plague Cases Reported
March 25.
Honolulu, March 80, via San Fran
cisco, April 1.-Two cases of plague
were reported March 25. One was a
Japanese fisherman, the other white
man named John Hurley. Since that
date no cases have appeared.
Word has reached here that the dis
abled steamer Cleveland reached Hilo
safely March 2S. The distance of 400
miles was made under sail in 10 days.
Three hundred or more steerage pas
sengers will probably sail from here on
the next steamer for San Francisco.
DR.. Carmichael has decided that, in
view of the recognition now given the
prophylactic as preventative remedy,
effective for from 30 to 40 days, he will
give permits for steerage passage to
persons who take the prophylactic and
are in good health, have their baggage
disinfected and are otherwise under
sanitary conditions.
A riot occurred at Pauhaua planta-
tion March II. A captain of police
and four officers arrested eight Japanese
for gambling. About 200 japanese,
armd with cane knives and clubs, sur
rounded the officers and forced them to
release their prisoners.
A disastrous cane fire swept over $50
arces ON the Hawaiian Commercial &
Sugar Company's plantation March 20.

APPEAL TO THE POWERS.
President Steyn's Speech to the Free
State Raad.

President steyn's Speech to the Free
State Raad.
Pretoria, April, 9.-In his speech at
the opening of the Free State Raad.
President Steyn declared that. in spite
of the surrender of Bloemfontein, he
had not lost the hope of the triumph of
the republican cause. The war, he
said. was forced upon the Transvaal,
and nothing remained for the Orange
Free State but to throw in its lot with
its sitser republic, in accordance with
the terms of the treaty. The war, he
continued, was begun with the object of
maintaining the independence secured
with the blood of the forefathers of
the nation, and had been 30 successful
that it had caused the greatest wonder
throughout the world, and even to the
Beers themselves.
After paying tribute to the memory
Of General Joubert, Steyn said the Brit
ish, Notwithstanding their overwhelm-
ing numbers, were violating the flag OF
truce and the Red Cross, and he was
compelled to report the matter to the
neutral powers. The president further
remarked that the attempt to create
dissension among the burghers by issu-
ing proclamations had failed. Refer
ring to the correspondence between the
South African presidents and Lord
Salisbury, Steyn proceeded:
"Not only were those efforts made,
but the republics dispatched deputa-
tions to Europe and America to bring
the influence of the neutral powers in
order to secure cessation of bloodshed,
and greatly desire that these efforts
be crowned with success"

Disturbances in Panama.

New York, April IA special to
the Herald from Washington says:
"It is now admitted that the diturb-
ances in Panama. Colombia, are seri-
GUS. and the authorities are beginning
to pay attention to them. Mail serv-
ice has been interrupted in consequence
of the operations of the troops, and it
was reported today that there had been
fighting in the streets of Panama. In
quiry at the department of state. how
ever, failed to elicit any information
on this point.
"A revolution in Colombia is of
especial Importance to the United
States, because of the guranteee made
by this government to preserve free
transit between Colon and Panama."

American Consul Strung Up by the
Thumbs In Peru.
Chicago, April "a special to the
Record from Washington says: Edward
Gottfried, of Wilkesbarre, Pa. late
consular agent of this government at
Truxillo, Peru, in sworn statement
which he has fled with the state de-
partment, asserts that in the summer
of 1898 at Huamucho, 80 or 60 Pc
ruvian revolutionsists dragged him
half dressed to the public square.
where they demanded that he produce
5000 soils (between So, 900 and 81, ,00O)
and % rifles within Is minutes or sub
NIT to chastisement in what is termed
IA Peru the "fying stocks"
GOttfried says he protested that he
was unable to comply with the demand
and was Immediately knocked down
with blow from gun and OverpOw-
cred. His thumbs were tied together
with thongs and his hands twisted back
of his head. Heavy rifles were inserted
between the inverted elbows and his
head and in that position he was strung
up. In a short time the agonizing
pains rendered him insensible. The
administration will demand restitution
and an apology.

Combination of Jobbers.

San Francisco, April THE case of
the st. Louis petitioners was taken up
today before the interstate commerce
commission. and considerable evidence
was introduced in support of their ap-
plication for smaller differential in
freight rates between the Middle West
and the Pacific coast. Hardware
merchants from Petaluma, San joe
and Oakland were before the commits
sion today, and their testimony was
directed to the allegation that Pacific
coast jobbers have united in a combin-
alton to. restain trade by shutting out
Eastern and Middle West competition,
thereby forcing up prices. Several
witnesses testified to their belief that
such combination existed.

BURMAH FRONTIER FIGHT.
Battle Between Chinese Raiders and
the British Police.

Battle Between Chinese Raiders and
the British Police.
Vancouver, B. c., April 9.-Oriental
papers state that Chinese official enmity
towards foreigners is being specially
directed against British citizens in
China. Instigated, it is said, by Rus.
sian suggestions, the Chinese have
lately been especially troublesome on
the Burmah- Chinese frontier, where
medical officer and an assistant COM
missioner were murdered.
A story was brought by the Empress
of Japan from Yokohama today of
series of additional Chinese raids on
the Burman boundary, eliminating in
a battle between 500 Chinese and IS
military police under District Super
intendent Hertz, of Rangoon. The
Indian military police. with 90 Gurk-
has. attacked the main body of Chinese,
killing "a and capturing their guns,
jingals and banners. The Chinese
leader was among the killed. Six OF
the British forces, including two ON,
GERS. were wounded, only one seriously.
The scene of the battle was eight miles
on the Burmah side of the frontier.

BY BOERS
Roberts Loses Five Compan
les of Infantry.
SURROUNDED BY A LARGE FORCE
General villebois Mareull, . Frcnchman
In the Dutch Army. Killed In =
Fight With Methuen's Forces.

London, April 9.-Lord Roberts Ne
ports that five companies of British
troops have been captured by Boeri
near Bethanie. The following his th,
text of his dispatch to the war office
announcing the capture:
"Bloemfontein, April 9.-Anothel
unfortunate occurrence has occurred
resulting, fear. in the capture of q
party of infantry, consisting of thret
companies of the Royal Irish Fusiliers
and two companies of the Ninth regi.
ment of mounted infantry, near Red
dersburg, little eastward of the Beth.
anie railway station, within q few
miles of this place. They were sur
rounded by a strong force of the enc
my, with four or five guns.
'The detachment held out from moor
of April until April 4. at 9 NJ, and
then apparently surrendered, for it il
reported that the firing ceased at that
time. Immediately after heard the
news. during the afternoon of April 8
1 ordered Gatacre to proceed from
Springfontein. his present headquarters
to Reddersburg with all possible speed
/ dispatched the Cameron Highlanders
hence to Bethanie. He arrived at Red
dersburg at 1890 A. NJ, without oppo
sition, but could get no news of the
missing detachment. There can be nc
doubt that the whole party has been
made prisoners.
The lost companies are probably q
part of the force guarding the railroad
at Bethanie, 80 miles south of Bloem
fontein. The Beers are evidently oper.
ating in force near the railroad, and
there is possibility of the lines being
interrupted for brief period at any
time. AS the captured British soldierl
were in a position to defend them
selves for nearly "a hours and were
then forced to surrender, the fighting
must have been severe.
The Beers were in force yesterday
five miles from Jagersfontein, situated
60 miles up from Bloemfontein. They
had brush with British patrols.

Breaking OF the Dam.

The crisis came shortly after IL
O'Clock, when suddenly. with a report
like the roar of the ocean, great
wedge. 20 feet high. 500 feet wide. and
about feet thick. rolled out of the
center section of the dam, down the
face of the 6O-foot fall. deep into the
river below. This left hanging gap
In the very middle OF the dam, through
which the debris and water fercely
poured, while the food, already raging,
was threatening everything in its path.
The released water poured into the
power house, catching eight employees
at work there, drowning all OF them.
Within short time all the valleys
to the south and west of Austin were
filled to overfowing with water, and
the southern portion OF the city, tribu-
tary 10 the river, was inundated.
Large crowds collected on the river
banks, and several persons were swept
into the river when the dam broke, but
all we're saved by boatmen.
A crowd of white people, numbering
about 80, living just below the dam in
tents, were seen at their habitations
just before the dam broke and have
not been accounted for since. IL is
generally believed that al. of them
were swept away.
A family of six negroes living In the
valley south of the city are known to
have been drowned.
1t 10 estimated that more than 100
houses have been destroyed, and the
loss to property will be great. Tho
breaking of the dam engulfed the old
water company's plant below the city.
and it is tonight lying Is feet under
water. while the city is in darkness and
without water.

AMBUSHED BY OUTLAWS.
Thrilling Experience of Two New Mex
leo Onicers.

leo OmcerS.
Phoenix, Ariz., April THE fol.
lowing details of the ambushing OF
Officers Scarborough, of Deming, N.
NJ, and Birchfield, by outlwas in the
Chirucusa mountains, have been re-
ceived here.
The outlaws discovered that they
were being followed and laid trap for
the officers, who walked into it. AS
soon as they came within rifle range,
the party OF three bandits opened fire.
The first volley wounded Scarborough
and Birchfield, one shot striking Scar
borough in the leg badly shattering the
bone; another struck Birchfield in the
lef; arm. Both men were disabled.
The wounded officers held the outlaws
at bay. although hard pressed, several
times. A continuous firing was kept up
until dark.
In the meantime, Birchfield managed
to build rude rock fort in which he
placed Scarborough, and as soon as
darkness prevented his movements
from being observed by the bandits, he
slipped away, secured horse and went
for assistance. Returning at daybreak
ne found Scarborough still alive and
holding the fort, but suffering intense
pain from his wound and exposure, it
having rained and showed all through
the night. The party arrived at San
Simon at 2 O'Clock yesterday afternoon
with Scarborough, and he was sent to
his home in Deming. His wound will
probably prove fatal.
A large posse has started in pursuit
of the outlaws, who have evidently
gone further back in the mountains,
where it will be almost impossible to
dislodge them.

FLOOD At AUSTIN
Swollen Colorado River Car.
ried Away the Great Dam.
THIRTY. OR FORTY LIVES LOST
Similar to the Johnstown Dissstcr-
Great Loss to Property-Part OF
the City Inundated.

Austin, April 10.-This city Is to-
night in pitch darkness, with raging
river, one mile wide. swollen far be-
yond its natural banks, roaring and
surging through all the lower portion
Of the town, having spread death and
destruction in its wake. In addition
to the vast loss to property interests, it
is calculated that between 30 and 40
lives have been sacrificed. and the re-
ports coming in from the tributary
country tonight do not tend to improve
matters. The food is not unlike the
disastrous Johnstown flood OF some
years ago, in that q raging river,
already swollen far beyond its capaci-
ty, bore to heavily upon an immense
dam spanning river, breaking 1t and
letting loose reservoir OF water 80
miles long. half mile wide and 80 feet
deep, to aid in carrying destruction
down the valleys of the Colorado river.
The great dam in the Colorado gave
way at noon from the enormous pres
sure of water and debris, and with q
roar and crash swept the valley below
the city, wrecking the immense light
and power plant and drowning eight
workmen.
Last Wednesday night it began to
rain very hard at this place, the storm
extending north of here along the
watersheds of the Colorado river. The
precipitation continued until this morn
ing. the downfall averaging six inches
within an hour. All this vast quantity
of water all along the watersheds of
the Colorado river rapidly swelled the
current until at 8 o'clock this morning
the river, which had been rising steadi-
ly since last evening, was q raging tor
rent. having risen 40 feet within 10
hours.
After daylight this morning 1t be-
came evident that the situation was
serious. The river began to rise 80
rapidly that it became evident that
the dam, power house and contents.
costing $500,000, were in imminent
danger. To add to the danger OF the
situation, small frame houses, trees and
debris of every description. commenced
descending the river, and piled up
against the upper face of the dam.
This weight was augmented every
moment until by 10 o'clock there was
. mass Of debris lodged against the
dam which threatened the safety of the
structure. In addition, millions Of
gallons of water, muddy from its long
iOurpav woa xuhirliuu and pluuoipo I'm

no wall could withstand the immense
pressure.

miles, as soon as the necessary authori-
