There will be no further reduction
in the rates now in effect from Chi
cago to Buffalo for the pan-Americau
exposition. This has been agreed up
on by general passenger agents of the
lines. Managers of the big Buffalo
fair are charging the light attendance
to the failure Of the railways to make
sufficiently low fares and have been
importuning the officers of the trans
portation companies to reduce the
charges to point that would stimulate
travel. The lowest rate from Chicago,
as we'll as from all other points east
or west OF Buffalo, is one fare for the
round trip, with ten-day limit for the
tickets. The attendance now is aver
aging $4,000 day. The exposition Of
ficers say they must have an average
of $4,000 admissions day to come out
even financially.
Western roads have agreed to make
reduced rates for July from all the
territory east of the Missouri rive.
Tickets will be sold at a fare and one
third for the round trip in all territory
where the local rate is three cents a
mile. These rates will be applicable
within a distance of 200 miles Of each
other.

One set OF cranks want to have
territorial laws passed for the'manner
in which liquor is to be sold in
Honolulu, while at the same time
they support a bill establishing a
municipal government for this city,
by which the voters are given the
right to manage the affairs of the
municipality. Another lot of cranks,
mostly OF the tribe which are here
to "reform" us for financial con-
sideration wants to braak down the
stockade OF Iwilei and turn lose
upon this city hundreds Of prosti-
tutes and thousands of men whose
passion these "seformsrs" can neither
change by legislation or preaching
The city of Honolulu knows what is
best for its own good, and it is an
insult for any legislator to attempt
to regulate by law matters which
should be ana are wholly within the
province and jurisdiction of the
men the city will chose to govern
and advfse its Inhabitants.

A morning paper has a very "ye'-'
low column in its issue yesterday
morning in regard to an alleged
wholesale smuggling Of cigars from
the u S. transport Solace. The
men on board the beat naturally
deny the soft impeachment, but the
reflection cast on the local Customs
Bureau is unjustifeble aud insult
ing. Says the official organ:
1t is we'll known fact that a
great many cigars have been landed
here in the last faw months. 1t is
said, however, that the local customs
force is altogether too small to look
out for everything that goes on in
the way OF smuggling on the water
front
The local force may be too small,
and we think it is, but we don't be-

stantiate it's charges, which reflect
on the honesty and intelligence OF
the men employed by the Treasury
Department in the Custom House.

AsTOR's YACHT DAMAGED.
The Handsome NOurmahI Nearly
Sunk by the North Star.


New York. Sept. 2S.-John Jacob
Astor's magnificent steam yacht Nour
mahal was badly damaged and strain
ed by being in collision this afternoon
with the North Star. the latest addi-
tion to the fleet of the Maine Steam
ship Company. The latter vessel had
four of her plates stove in and about
dozen feet of her railing carried
away. Although there were about
three hundred excursionists aboard
her, at the time, there was no excite
ment to speak of. but aboard the Nour-
mahal, which got tangled up with
the steamship for several minutes, the
greatest confusion prevailed. This
was due to the fact that the yacht
was dragged along for some distance
by the headway of the liner, and dur
ing that interval her deck was awash.
When the yacht finally freed herself,
she rolled heavily and 1t seemed that
she was going to founder. She right
ed herself, however. and when 1t was
ascertained that there was no great
damage below the waterline, she pro-
ceeded on the way to her anchorage.
The North Star stood by the injured
yacht until the danger was over, and
then went on her way to her dock.

START OF THE RACE.
Yachts Had a Fine Sailing Breeze

Yachts Had a Fine Sailing Breeze
and a Rolling Sea.
New York. Sept. 2S.-When the two
yachts were towed out to Sandy Hook
lightship there was a fine sailing
breeze blowing nine knots from a lit
tie south of east with a possible prom
Use of becoming more southerly as the
day progressed. The long greasy
swell, always forerunner of a storm,
came in with considerable force and
the roll OF the sea from southwark
caused by the disturbance down the
coast made it unpleasant for those not
accustomed to ocean waves. The wind
had freshened a bit when the tug
Navigator with the Regatta Commit
tee aboard anchored at the southeast
erly end of the line with Sandy Hook
lightship forming the other extremity.
Soon afterwards signals were hoisted
on the committee tug denoting that
the course would be east by
south, fifteen miles to windward
and return. The preparatory gun
was fired at 10:45. The
Columbia had secured meanwhile a
berth to windward of the line, while
the Shamrock was curvetting about at
a considerable distance to leeward.
Capt. Sycamore was at her tiller down
on the leeward side, as usual. On the
Columbia Skipper Barr was at the
wheel. The force Of the wind was now
fully nine knots an hour. 1t was some
time puffy and occasionally reached
the dimensions of a scupper breeze,
when the yachts heeled to its strength.
The warning gun was fired at 1885
and at that time both yachts had
worked to windward of the line, with
the Shamrock now in the weather po-
sition. At the warning signal both
yachts bore down and came to lee
ward. At 1858 the Columbia went on
the starboard tack, this maneuver be-
ing repeated by her rival
Shamrock Gets the Lead.
The Shamrock luffed up to win1ward
of the Columbia, and when the start
ing gun came had a splendid position,
and went over the line two seconds
ahead of her rival, and we'll placed
in the windward berth. For once the
doughty Charlie Barr had met his
equal in the starting trick. Columbia
tried in vain to work out through the
lee of her opponent. Several short
tacks were taken, but In spite of all
efforts she could not get clear. At IL 40
Shamrock had a good lead Of nearly 300
wards When the vessels we're on the
mort tack they encountered pretty
berd head sea. While on the star
hoard tack the sea smote them abeaIn.
The Shamrock appeared to splash
more against the nose enders
than the Columbia, but the splash
Ing ala not retard her speed
in the least. Not a tremor could be
detected in the luffs of the sails or
either racer. Both were handed 70
