TOLEDO, co., August 19.-It will be
interesting to the friends of the Rev.
DR.. Charles o. Brown of Chicago to
know that he is in the city and has Mrs.
Brown with him. The Mrs Brown of
today, however is not the Mrs. Brown
of former days, DR.. Brown having been
divorced and having remarked within
the past six months. The divorce and
subsequent marriage will not only be
news to the acquaintance of the Brown
family in Toledo, but in Chicago as we'll

TO INSPECT PLANTS.
Horticulturalists Fear Pests from Ha-
wall and the Philippines.


WASHINGTON, Aug. Elm response
to a letter of inquiry from the POST
master Secretary of Agricul-
ture Wilson has approved the request
of the California State Board of Horti-
culture that POstmasters at Pacific
Coast points of entry shall submit all
mail matter from Hawaii and the Phi
lippines containing fruit or plants to the
horticultural officials of the Pacific
Coast states for their inspection before
delivery to the addresses. The eXecu-
tive committee of the California Board
had forwarded resolutions asserting
that large number of pests are carried
in the horticultural products sent from
those islands.
secretary Wilson in his reply says
that the quarantine service which Cali
fornia has been carrying on for some
years to protect the State from injuri-
GUS insects, especially from Asiatic and
Australasian ports, had done admirable
work and has saved the horticultural
industries on the Coast from great loss.
If the instructions to POstmasters sug-
gested can be issued. he says the pro-
lection of the fruit-growing interests of
that part of the country will be COM

MONEY TROUBLE IS ENDED
COUNCIL OF STATE TO MAKE
APPROPRIATIONS.
President Mckinley So Directs In a
Dispatch From Washington-Sewer
age Bill Approved.

President Dole received a most inn
portant telegram today from the Gov
ernment at Washington in regard TO
the powers of the Council of State and
appropriations for public expenses.
Following is the message:
THE President has not considered 1t
wise to convene the old legislature ex-
pecting the Council of State to provide
for requisite expenditures until Con-
gress adopts the Hawaiian territorial
bill. He approved Act No. 1 of the
Council of State. JOHN HAY"
Act No. referred to is the bill ap-
propriating money for the extension of
the sewerage system which was passed
and referred to President Mckinley ror
approval
The telegram sets at rest the specula-
ton in regard to the legislature it now
being evident that the session now de-
layed will not be called at all.
Upon the reading of this telegram the
Cabinet went right to work on the de-
partments estimates and passed them.
In the Attorney Generals department
the following items were added: Sala-
ries and payrolls, $45,O0O; current $780,
900.
1t was then voted to ask the Council
of State to pass a bill calling for the
following amounts, subject to the ap-
proval of President Mckinley:
Current accounts, $1,020, 1853 Al; sala-
ries and payrolls, $34S, 767. .82; loan fund,
S831 500. Total, $4,000, 621 .23.
Minister Damon read to the Cabinet
a statement of expenditures and the
resources of the Republic of Hawaii,
which will be submitted with the bill
for the information of the Council of
State.
A petition from destitute Hawaiians
asking to be allowed to live on unoccu-
pied Government land as tenants at
will, was favored.
The proposal of the Bishop Estate in
regard to the Pauahi stree extension,
giving the land on certain conditions,
was accepted, and the Minister Of IN
terror Instructed to proceed with the
work.
A statement of expenditures of the
Board of Health was referred to the
Minister of Finance,

A HUNGRY CROWD VISITS THE
GOVERNMENT.
Over Two Hundred People Appear en-
Masse and Appeal For Something t.
Eat-Sad Condition.

Two hundred and twenty-one native
Hawaiians-men, women and children
crouched on the floor in the hallway
of the Executive Building this morn
ing, importuning the Government for
food.
None of them had had breakfast. and
their sufferings were plainly lined in
their solemn countenances. In fact
they had had little food since Monday
morning. A written petition on that
day to the Minister of the Interior had
not brought relief and this morning
the destitute aggregation appeared at
the building en- masse.
Officers of the Hawaiian Relief Socie-
ty were present and addressed Minister
Young and Minister Damon on behalf
of the crowd. They were: Miss Pea
body, Mrs. George C. Beckley, Mrs.
Hugh Mcintyre, Mrs. John F. Bowler,
Mrs. Irene 1. Brown and Mrs E. S.
Cunha. Following the conference Min
lister Young replied that the hands of
the Government were tied for the reas-
on that the appropriation was exhaust
ed, and it was not possible to have leg
islation on the subject at present. Not
cent for relief could be given. The
Government had exhausted it's appro-
priation in caring for the large number
of people in the camps after their per-
| iods of quarantine were over and could
not carry on the work any longer.
Minister Damon advised the Hawaii
an Relief Society to spend it's balance
of $1,000 for the emergency. 1t was not
a large amount but perhaps when 1t
| was gone other measures could be
| taken.
The ladies of the society were 10th to
| part with their balance, as they have
an immense routine call for money Be
| sides ordinary relief which costs nearly
5000 a month, the society is supporting
outright, about forty families. 1t was
decided, however, that the money must
be spent.
James H. Boyd and Mrs. Peabody ad-
dressed the assemblage, telling the peO-
pie what had been decided upon. They
were told to return to the relief camp,
on PunChbowl street, where food would
be provided as soon as possible. This
they did, manifesting extraordinary
good spirit in the matter. An order
Company for $500 worth of meat and
the ladies began work Immediately Sc
curing other necessaries. By noon all
, had had a good meal, and will continue
| to be provided regularly until the money
is all gone
During the conference the men of the
! destitute party stated that they were
willing to work but could find nothing
to do Most of them are stevedores,
and since the departure of ships from
the wharves they have been thrown out
of their jobs.
A new difficulty is now ahead. On,
April 1 it is announced that house rent
will be charged at the relief camps.
This is the policy of the Government
it being felt that ample time has been
given people to shift for themselves.
If these natives do not get work in the
| meanwhile they will at that time be
worse pressed than ever.

THE SENATE CONCLUDES ITS
WORK.
Teller's Amendment Providing For a
District Court and District Judge in
Hawaii is Accepted.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-The bill
providing a form of government for
the territory of Hawaii was passed by
the Senate today without division.
The pending question was the amend
ment OF Teller relating to the estab-
lishment of District Court with a
District Judge in Hawaii, carrying with
1t the right of trial by jury before
the court. Morgan of Alabama, resum-
ed his speech, begun yesterday, an
tagoniztng on technical grounds the
proposed amendments.
He asserted in connection with a dis
cussion of the judicial features of the
measure, that the bill as it now stood
would legislate out of office every Dem
ocrat in Hawaii. He declared his belief
that some Senators were determined to
give political complexion to the Ha-
waifan judiciary. Teller's amendment
was adopted.
Clark of Wyoming, proposed an
amendment appropriating $3.50, 900 to be
paid to Liliuokalani, late queen of the
Hawaiian Islands for all interest she
may have in the crown lands, the sum
to be repaid from the revenues from the
crown lands, Clark maintained that it
was only the part of equity and justice
that the queen who had been deposed
by the United States forces should be
reimbursed for the losses she had sus-
tanned. Mr. Cullom offered an amend
ment holding that the late queen had
no rights in the matter. She was here
now, he said, consulting lawyers as to
her claims against this Government,
and his understanding was that many
of them had informed her that she had
no good claim.
The amendment precipitated a gen
eral discussion of the deposition of the
queen, participated in by Jones of Ar
kansas, Pettigrew of South Dakota, and
others. Pettigrew said he was opposed
to the bill and to any effort made by
this Congress to provide a government
for the Islands. He favored turning the
Hawaiian Islands back to their people,
and permitting them to make the best
of them.
Quarles of Wisconsin, followed Petit
grew, making his maiden speech in the
Senate in opposition to the proposition
to pay to the former queen any sum
of money. Referring to the dark pic
ture drawn by Pettigrew of the result
of the annexation of Hawaii and the
acquisition of other territory by the
United States, Quarles said: II had
thought that the Senator from South
Dakota had exhausted his means OF
chasing ghosts out of our insular pos
sessions, but here he brings up a bogit
man from the Sandwich Islands and
sets him to gyrating before the Senate
to frighten somebody"
Platt of Connecticut, offered an
amendment, declaring that the right tc
the crown lands was in the people OF
Hawaii, and not in the queen.
The amendment was laid on the table
without division.
Platt of Connecticut, offered ar
amendment providing that the territory
of Hawaii should not at any future time
be admitted to the Union as a state OIL
be attached to any state of the Union
but it was ruled out on a point of order
The measure was then passed withou
| division.

THE ORPHEUM.

New additions to the Orpheum's ar
ray of talent will be welcomed tomor-
row evening. Murray and Apple, and
another lady artistic, all of whom come
highly recommended. The house last
night was good one, and the program
up to the average. Professor Robin
son." the curtain-raiser, possesses much
possibility of comedy, but the company
seemed somewhat uneasy in their lines.
BY Thursday it will no doubt be going
in much better shape. Adams and Rog-
ers were at home in their parts and got
many laughs out of them. Allan Dunn
had but few lines, but made the
most of the character. The idea of the
farce is quite funny, and with more
confidence in action and lines on the
part of it's portrayers it will prove most
amusing. Hearde and Beresford went
big" Pierri was good, as usual. Bax-
ter's act Is a very clever one. The
Richards, both attired as Dutch gentle
men in disguise, give a very clever dia-
logue. Miss Dixon had fresh set of
heads in her song sheet last night but
went as well as ever. The quartet
present very funny sketch full of i'm
possible, but absurd effects, and sing
together very we'll With the present
program and the new attractions there
should be a full house tomorrow night.

STORMS KEPT HER BACK
EXPERIENCE OF THE AMERICA
MARU.
Fearful Weather for the Australia to
Battle With-The Japanese Boat
Passed Her at the Farallones.

The lateness of the arrival of the
steamship America Maru was due to a
fearful storm encountered between here
and San Francisco, The vessel was
sighted at about IL O'Clock last night,
eight hours behind her usual time. Her
officers report the worst weather and
heaviest seas theyhave ever experienced
in that part of the Pacific. The vessel,
which has a bilge keel and was built
with special attention to securing good
behavior in stormy weather, was
knocked about so that there was a
constant rattle of articles falling and
rolling about all over, and some of the
passengers did not leave their cabins
from the beginning of the trip till Koko
Head was near.
J. Before leaving this morning Captain
Going predicted that the Australia
would not make port today. The Am
erica Maru passed the Australia near
the Farallones, and the Australia must
have plunged into the teeth of the
same storm that delayed the Japanese
steamer. Those on board the Spreckels
boat must have been subjected to a
very lively experience in such weather
as the America Maru's officers des-
cribe

MURDER IN HANAkUA.

HMAMAKUA, Hawaii, March r.
Nahalea native with bad reputa-
tlon, is under arrest, and will probably
be charged with murder. About a week
ago he beat his wife with a rope until
she confessed to him that she
had been intimate with a Japanese.
Then Nahalea went to where the Jap
anese was at work with an axe. He
took the axe from the Japanese and
struck him on the side of the head with
1t, and a second time breaking his jaw.
Then Nahalea knocked his wife down
with the axe handle and chased away a
native who interfered, threatening to
kill him If he returned.
The Japanese died Saturday morning,
March 10. Nahalea used to work for c..
l.. Hopkins in Honolulu, twelve or fif-
teen years ago. He is tall and pow
erful man, and has been arrested sew
eral times in Hawaii for assault and
battery
Deputy Sheriff H. S. Overend has
taken charge of the case. There are
said to be five eye witnesses to the
assault.
