NEWS FROM WASHINGTON

The Cabinet spent it's time today
discussing communications from Wash
ington. The most important one, per-
haps, was that in relation to public
lands of Hawaii. 1t is stated that the
committee on territories has recon-
mended to the House that the Hawa-
iian land laws stand as they are, to
govern the lands of Hawaii in future
This committee has had under consi-
deration the matter Of transfers made
by the local government since annexa,
ton. The adoption by Congress of the
Hawaiian land laws for this country
would carry with it the approval Of all
such agreements.
rho same Committee lisfavored that
clause Of the Cullnm bill which gives TO
the Supreme court the authority to
settle election contests, and desires that
Pll such contests should be srttled
by the legislature as in the several
states and territories. This change is
regretted 10y local officials, for the rea-
son that on the mainland election con-
tests are inYiriably settled by legisla-
lures on party lines and the practice of
referring to the courts instead has
worked well here.
The remainder of the time Of me Cab
met was taken up in discussing the
British claims. AS pointed out in Ihe
Star some days ago the meaning of .he
two letters from Washington on the
subject is not clear. President Dole
thinks the matters are referred back
to the local government for its own
disposition. There is a doubt, however,
in the Cabinet and the Washingt On
government will be asked for more
specific instructions.

.7RE GOLDEN SHORE AFIRF
THE DANGERS OF FUMIGATING
VESSELS.
Burning Sulphur Starts a Conhagra-
ton in the Hold of Large Lumber
Schooner--A Marrow Escape.

Fumigation nearly resulted in the
destruction of the schooner Golden
Shore yesterday. The burning sulphur
started a confagration in the hold of
the vessel and while all the matches
were closed and the captain and crew
were awaiting for the Board of Health
agent to open them and inspect, fire
was slowly eating it's way through the
hull. The Golden Shore is a large 700
ton schooner, built in 1899 and engaged
in lumber carrying between here and
the Sound. Captain Rasmussen is her
master.
The fire was discovered at the ex
piration of the forty-eight hours fu-
migation. Black smoke came out with
the sulphur fumes when the hold was
opened and investigation showed that
the burning sulphur had run out of
the tins in which it had been placed and
had started fire on the hull of the yes
sci. The fire had almost eaten a hole
through the hull, having burned sew
eral beams, and in a very short time
the water would have been coming in
and the vessel would have foundered
before those above knw that anything
was the matter. bucket brigade was
hastily organized and the fire was put
out, but not before the schooner had
been so damaged that she cannot car
ry cargo without being repaired first.
The damage has been estimated at s.,
800, but this is probably more than the
actual loss.
The sulphur was placed in the hold
OF the Golden Shore in a tin vessel on
corrugated iron, under which was sand.
1t is supposed that the quantity of sui
phur was too great, so that on melting
1t overflowed
The Golden Shore is now lying in the
stream with a red fumigating flag dy-
ing. Captain Rasmussen thinks II safe
to put ballast in and will probably do
so and start for the Sound in a few
days. He is waiting to hear from the
Chamber Of Commerce, which is asses
sing the damages.

BRITAIN G|RDS HER LOINS
No PLAGUE CASES TODAY HEADS IN THE basket BR
CALLS OUT ENTIRE VOLUNTEER
FORCE.
Six Hundred and Sixty-Six Ships of
the Line to Go Into Commission.
100000 Men.

LONDON, February 1.-Britain's en-
tire fleet and her entire volunteer force
are to be mobilized at once. This was
practically settled at the Cabinet meet
ing on Tuesday.
Many retired and half-pay naval Off
GERS have been ordered % hold them
selves in readiness for active service.
officers of the Royal Naval Reserve,
who are serving on merchantmen all
over the world, have been notified by
cable to expect commissions on wa"-
ships.
This is the answer of the British lion
to the snarling of the other wild beasts
of Europe. 1t is her challenge to the
world
Six hundred and sixty-six ships of
war are to go into commission and
100000 volunteers.
The volunteers are an organization
entirely separate, and resemble the Ma
tional Guard of America, though prob
ably not so well organized or drilled
as the better regiments of the States.
The militia, which is the reserve bat
talions of the regular army, and the
yeomanry, are already on duty.
The volunteers terms of enlistment
does not permit of their being called
out for foreign service, so it is undoubt-
edly the intention to use them for home
duty, garrisoning the forts and mill
tary stations and relieving the regl-
ments now thus employed for service
in South Africa. This order will liber-
ate about fifty regiments for the war.
The manning of England's gigantic
| fleet will be something of a problem
But the men in the Royal Naval Re
] serve will be employed and no doubt
| is expressed of the ability of the Ad-
! miralty to solve the problem.
| The news has caused a sensation ir
| England.
The only news from the front consist.
of trifles, which are important only as
corroborating the story that Butler is
preparing for another attack of the
Beers in the effort to relieve Ladysmlth
and that Lords Roberts and Kitchener
are getting ready for their attack or
the Orange Free State, which England
expects to be a repetition of the famous
march from Kabul to Kandahar.

QUEENS SPEECH CREATES GOOD
IMPRESSION.
Government Supporters United-Tone
of the Commons Less Despondent
Than Was Expected.

LONDON, January 30.-The war Par
lament assembled today in answer to
a summons of the Queen, but the OPEN
ing session failed to develop any of the
dramatic features or impressive scenes
that had been prematurely pictured and
predicted. There was but one impor-
tant development of the day, and that
was the display of strength and unity
on the part of the. Government 1t
means that the war will be fought out
to the last man and last cent and ounce
of resource. The men who review the
session for the London papers COM
plain that there was a lack of intelli-
gent criticism, and show an almost
Spartan anxiety to have faults hunted
out and held up in order that a heroic
remedy may be applied. The speech OF
the Queen created an impression that
is generally favorable.
The reassembling of Parliament has
cleared the political situation here. The
| Queens speech with it's hearty refer
ence to the patriotism of the nation and
| spontaneous loyalty of the colonies has
been a good tonic for enfeebled minds,
and the tactics of the opposition in pro-
ducing. through Lord Edmund Fitz-
| maurice, what is virtually q resolution
of censure, have united the Government
supporters. The general tone in the
Commons throughout the first night
! was less respondent than had been ex-
| pected and was a wholesome symptom
| of improved public feeling.

THE AXE SWINGS AT THE CUSTOM
HOUSE.
The Cabinet Decides at Special Meeting
to Put the Department on the Old
Appropriation Basis.

There was excitement at the Custom
House yesterday afternoon over a re-
port that heavy reductions were to be
made in the force employed in order
that the bureau might be kept running
within the appropriations made for the
last two years. At a special meeting
of the Cabinet it was decided that this
must be done and though the order has
not yet gone forth, it is understood
that the matter has been practically
decided and at least six men will have
to go. This means serious Gripping
of the force which was already too
small. With forty or fifty vessels in
the harbor all the time, there are only
nine customs guards to watch them,
and this number will probably be cut
down by at least two. This means de-
lay to merchants in getting their
freight, or else the risk of losing much
revenue by the government, as the
number of vessels that can be attended
to while discharging will be reduced.
The only recourse for the custom house
when a vessel cannot be watched is to
seal it's matches with red tape and seal
ing wax, until the force is ready to
handle it. This was done recently to
number of vessels. There is a heavy
penalty for breaking the seal, so that
a sealed vessel may be considered safe.
Recently the custom house has been
allowed a few men more than were ac-
tually provided by the appropriation
of the last Legislature. This action was
in view of the immense increase in
shipping, which made it impossible for
the force at hand to do the work pro-
perly. Now the department will have
to go back to the old basis, until Wash
ington or Legislature comes to it's re-
| lief. The careful watching or patrolling
of the water front, night or day, will
be an impossibility, it is stated, and the
smugglers will have high opportunity.
! 1t is the opinion of many that the
! government is likely to lose in revenue
more than it will save by the cuts, but
, the Cabinet has decided that the cuts
/ are necessary and unless a change Is
made at the regular meeting tomorrow
the cuts will come. In fact they have
already begun and men who had Jobs
yesterday in the customs service are
| looking for positions today. The
changes will effect all the departments
of the customs bureau, up stairs and
down.
