WANT SUFFRAGE
IN THE ISLANDS

MINNEAPOLIS, May 31-The session
this morning of the Woman Suffrage
Association was largely devoted to re-
ports Of officers and committees. Har-
riet Taylor Upton of Ohio, the treasur-
er. reported receipts for the year of
$22,522. which was 1863 more than the
disbursements.
Sarah Clay Bennett Of Kentucky,
chairman Of the Federal suffrage COM
mittee. in her report Of the petitions
addressed to Congress, argued that the
Supreme Court had directly decided in
its ruling on the fourteenth amendment
to the constitution that that amend
rnent had annulled the word "male" in
the constitution and laws of the States
that confined the right of suffrage to
men.
Elnora Munroe Babceck of the press
committee reported that press work
had been organized in twenty-four
States.
Interest centered in Susan B. An
thongs report of her labors as chair
man of the Congressional work COM
mittee. She said the thirty-second an
nual petition to Congress for an amend
ment to the constitution had been pre-
scented, supported by figures from every
State, and In addition a petition had
been presented asking that the word
male" be stricken out of suffrage leg
tslation for Porto Rico and Hawaii.

GENERAL GREEDY, ARCTIC
EXPLORER, IS IN HONOLULU

including General Greedy, were taken
ON a sightseeing trip on the Oahu
Railroadsas far as Waialua.
In accordance with the plan of the
International Geographical Congress,
held in Hamburg in 1879, General Gree
ly, then lieutenant, commanded the
expedition into the Arctic regions the
object of which was to establish Sc
ries of circumpolar stations for scien-
tific observations. He landed with his
party, twenty-five in all, sat Discovery
Harbor. August IL, 1881, and was res
cued June %, 1884, at Cape Sabine,
with six of his party, by the officers of
the relief ships under Commander
Schley now Admiral Schley. of San
tiago fame. Two of GreeIy's party,
Lieutenant Lockwood and Sergeant
Brainard had reached SO degrees 81
minutes north latitude, the highest
northerly point yet attained. Greedy
abandoned Fort Conger August 8, 1883,
and reached Baird Inlet September 30,
with the entire party well. There he
abandoned all his boats and was adrift
thirty days on an ice foe in Smiths
Sound. His permanent camp was es-
tablished October 81 1883, at Cape Sa-
bine, the point where he was found.
Here eighteen of the party persisted.
Had the relief ships been delayed for
ty-eight hours, not one of the party
would have been found alive.
After that memorable expedition
Greedy was made captain in the Sixth
United States Cavalry, and on Deem
Der IL, 1887, he was detached as acting
chief signal officer of the army, and
thus served until he was regularly
commissioned as chief signal officer,
with the rank of brigadier general.
March 3, 1887. This placed him ex-
officio in charge of the meteorological
work of the United States until July /,
1892, when the civilian duties OF the
signal office were transferred to the
Weather Bureau, under the Depart
ment of Agriculture.
Massachusetts, through legislative
action. extended to him it's thanks for
his service in war, in science, and In
exploration. He received the thanks of
the government eff Great Britain for
returning a British ensign, official dis
patches, and Arctic mail; also, gold
medals from the Royal Geographical
Society of London and the Society of
Geography of Paris.

THE BOERS ARE
AGAIN ACTIVE
Rumors That the British Have
Had a Serious Re-
verse.

LONDON, June 1.-The reticence of
the government regarding the battle of
VIakfontein and other military events
of some Importance which have recent
ly occurred at widely separated points
in South Africa, has led TO considera-
Bile anxiety. This is in no way allayed
by the curious answer of the War Of
fee today to a question regarding the
accuracy or otherwise of the Boer re-
port that the British We're defeated
near Pretoria May I'd, losing 46 killed,
80 wounded. 500 prisoners. and six
guns. The reply which the War Of
flee vouchsafed, 1--WE have no official
information has aroused some mis-
givings.
NEW YORK, June IA dispatch to
the Tribune, from London, says: GEN
eral Kitchener's account of the battle
of Vlakfontein serves to increase pub
lie interest in the Boer war. Two facts
stand out: First, the determined ma
ture of the Boer assault upon an in
trenched position fifty miles from Jo-
hannesburg, and secondly, the heavy
losses suffered by both sides. This
has been the first real engagement
which has been fought for many
months, and it is decisive proof that
the Beers, when led by cool and
wary general like Delarey, can still of
fer strenuous resistance to British
arms. The details of this battle may
indicate that General Dixon's force was
surprised, and that the casualty was
run up to ia in this way. But the
Beers. in any event. were the assail-
ants, and were not repulsed without
severe losses. The Beers are also re-
ported to have fought with exceptional
gallantry while in pursuit of General
Plumer's CONVOY
A British officer who is on furlough
after fighting from Colenso to Lyden-
burg, has been predicting that the
closing skirmishes of the campaign
would occurson the line of the Durham
Johannesburg railway, in the vicinity
of Heidelberg and Standerton. Both OF
these affairs were within the theater
of war defined by this officer months
ago, as the last Boer ditch.
The natural explanation of the fight
ing is that one mine after another Is
opening, and the refugees are return
ing to Johannesburg in small groups,
and the Beers have been making des-
perate efforts to brighten them and to
prevent the resumption of industry in
the gold belt. Vlakfontein was prob
ably designed to be loud warning to
the refugees that the war had not end
ed, and that johannesburg was still
an unsafe place of residence.

Gen. A. w. Greedy, chief signal Off
Ger Of the United States army, who is
now in Honolulu, en- route the Philip
pines. on the transport Sheridan on an
official inspection tour, has won more
fame as an Arctic explorer than IN any
other capacity. When, in 1881, he head
ed an expedition into the Arctic re-
gions intent on finding route to the
North Pole, and to establish stations
for scientific observations, he little
dreamed that he was to make one OF
the most memorable expeditions in the
history of the frozen north. Little did
he believe that in seeking the way to
the North Pole that he would almost
sink into an Arctic grave, together
with all his heroic men.
Greedy did not find the North Pole,
nor any passage that would help fu-
ture explorers in making a dash for
that elusive goal He and his party
land where they erected their tent, ate
all their provisions, betook themselves
to their sleeping bags, and then await
ed slow, lingering death by freezing.
Almost as they were in the last throes,
relief came unexpectedly, and they
were revived noon too soon, placed
aboard the relief ships and brought
back again to their native land. There
were many, however, who found shall
low graves near the place where Gree
ly himself almost gave up his life In
the interest of science.
In that party was also Sergeant
Brairlard, of the regular army who
was afterwards promoted and given
commission in the cavalry branch of
the service. Brainard passed through
Honolulu in one of the first military
expeditions to the Philippines in 1898,
making many friends during his brief
stay in the city.
General Greedy, in connection with
his army work, is looking into the
matter of cable communication be-
tween San Francisco and Hawaii and
will make known the results of his
Investigations and observations upon
his return to Washington. Yesterday

ABOUT RUSSIA
Empire is as Peaceable- as Any
Country in the
World.

NEW YORK. June LA dispatch to
the Herald from London says:
General G. B. Williams, who has been
stopping at the Hotel Cecil. emphatical-
ly denies the reports that have been cir
culated to the effect that Russia is on
the verge of revolution. In an interview
he says:
ITO Judge by the reports in the Eng
lish papers, one would imagine that Rus
STA ives a hotbed of sedition, just quiv-
ering on the brink of revolution. Now, j
have visited that country periodically
for many years past and have had an
opportunity to see, perhaps. more than
the visitor could see, and to study the
conditions of the country in a way that
one can only do by intimate acquain-
lance. The country is as peaceable as
any in the world.
People go about their business as
freely as in England or America, and
appear to be just as little in awe OF the
authorities. Furthermore, as regards
foreigners or, I should say Americans,
there seems to be only the friendliest
feeling. You are everywhere received
kindly. There is an evident disposition
to do businss with you on straightfor-
ward business lines. With regard TO
English papers, there are two which l
can contradict from my own personal OBJ
servation. The story about unusual po-
lice precaution at the review was a
myth, pure and simple. l was at the re-
view with my wife and came with l5O
feet of the spot where the Gar was
standing.
Beyond the ordinary guard of honor
there was absolutely no appearance Oh
precaution to safeguard the Emperor S
person. Certainly there was nothing ike
wholesale exclusion of the public. The
Gar moved around quite freely and
did not appear to have the least distrust
of anyone who came near him. / have
seen other royalties at similar functions
and the Gear did not appear any more
in danger than they did.
Another instance of gross exaggera-
ton was the incident of the students at
the Cathedral, when, according to the
reports to London, a small-sized revolu-
ton was the result. Now, I happened
to be sitting In the balcony Of the Nevsky
Prospekt Hotel at the time and witness
ed the whole incident. There was
handful of students who were expelled
from the cathedral because they wouid
insist on smoking inside the churcn'
They were expelled with as little russ as
so many young fellows would occasion
who tried to smoke inside st. Paufs $.
There was not the slightest disturbance
certainly nothing which would In any
way be described as an emeute. iet
that trifiing thing evidently was magni-
fed into an event which most threatened
the Russian throne. 1t was all over IN
a few minutes
