morning at meeting of The stockhold-
ers. The board of directors was empow-
cred to make the issue bearing per
cent, payable semi-annualy. The
bonds are limited to ten years dura-
ton, but can be taken up after five
years by the company if 1T desires to
call them in. President Isenberg was
chairman OF the meeting, at which were
represented ABOUT Sv,vUU shares of the
corporation. W. A. Kinney, on behalf
OF the directors, presented the following
resolution, when adopted became the
board OF directors authority Tor the big
deal:

Mr., Kinney stated In connection with
the resolution that the Issuance OF the
bonds was advantageous at the present
time to the company, II the issue was
not mad. advances would have TO be
asked OF the agents, the plantation
work would be impeded, and assess
ments would be crowded upon one an
other faster than the owners OF stock
could pay for them. The advantage In

The plague Is reported from several
places in Japan. A case came to light
at Kanagawa, which is part Of Yo-
kohama; another was found on the
Tokaido, which is the highway between
Toxic and Kyoto or Kobe; and there
are twelve cases at Osaka, or were at
last accounts. Rats spread the infec-
ton. AS Kobe is morally certain to
catch the plague again and as Yokoha-
ma already has 1t, the need OF extra
vigilance on, the waterfront speaks for
itself. 1t should not be forgotten that
a city on the plague belt, as this one is,
is always in danger of pe1tilential
visitation.
Edward Lauterbach, whose name is
as much pro-Boer as his sentiments,
was quoted in the Advertiser some
days ago as saying that the Republican
party will be irretrievably lost IL 1t
does not come out for the Beers. Mr..
Lauterbach ought to know that Ameri-
can politics no longer turns on the in
ternal discords of foreign states that
liz beyond the ken of the Monroe doc
trine. Electing President for the
good Of the United States has nothing
to do with either Boer or Briton. 1t
is home matter exclusively.

putting up the mill at present prices
was an advantage, as the price of steel
was continually on the rise, and the
100000 necessary for the construction
of the plant would go further now than
at some future time. This had refer
ence to the machinery which was in
tended for the American Sugar Com
pany on Molokai, but which will be ia
ken over by the McBryde Company.
Brewer @, Co. took s325,0vJ of the
bonds at par value, and 100000 went
to Albert Wilcox, without commissions
in both cases. Whatever bonds cannot
be placed here will be disposed of by
Col. George McFarlane on the Main

The truth about Mafeking seems to
be that the Beers captured some of the
defences where they were afterwards
surrounded and beaten. Almost as
much as this is admitted in the Boer
official report. 1t may be fully con-
coded that the city was in British
hands up to May 18th and that the
chances of holding out while food lasts
were not materially lessened by the

Some changes in the polity of Japan
are not gratifying but others are I'M
reservedly So In the latter class is the
improvement In the marriage relations
of Japanese princes of the blood and
the hope it affords that the polygamous
habits of the Emperors may be abated.
The present Crown Prince is son of
one OF the Emperor Mutsohito's plural
wives but from the method of his re-
cent marriage it is hoped that he may
consent, when he comes to the throne,
to lead a homogeneous life. Apropos of
this theme the Japan Weekly Times,
in discussing the congratulatory lead
ers in the vernacular press about the
late Imperial wedding says:
OF the congratulatory articles, most
worthy of notice are those in the jill, the
Nichi Nichl aud the Kokumn, These
leading journals are agreed In attaching
great Importance to the Imperial mar
riago just solemnised, both from the NOR
al and the social points OF view. one of
them, the Kokumin states-and the 9TH
err two say the same thing by implica-
tion-that in the case OF our Emperors
there has hitherto been no such thing as
marriage In the proper sense OF the
term. when a consort was chosen by an
Emperor the event was announced as an
official appointment and not as n mar
riage. But in the present instance an en-
tirely new procedure has been employed
and n new importance has been given 70
the event, first by the berothals OF the
Crown Prince and Princess Sadako, and
finally by the solemni2ation of their
marriage In the Imperial Sanctuary In an
open and most ceremonious manner All
this. they say. shows how deeply Their
Imperial Majesties recognize the sacred
Importance OF the conjugal union and the
duties arising out Of II, They express
deep gratitude TO the Emperor for such a
radical change In the marriage custom OF
his family, for It viii have far-reaching
effects upon the improvement Of popular
ideas as 10 the saoredness OF conjpgal
