New York (Special).-A gang of
train robbers have been systematically
robbing the Adams Express Company,

parties are former employees. The
losses amount to $4,000 or more. On
Friday last package arrived at the
Jersey City Adams Express Office the
address of which had been changed

with the matter at all. They were held
in $1,000 each for trial.

Beringer, one of the most prominent
wine men of Napa county, died here to-
day shortly after noon of Brights

Der of the well-known firm of Beringer

ootence. No party can exist on such

He declares that the difference would
not cease to operate when the war is
over, because Statesmen who disasso-
ciate themselves from a nation in
great national question, such as the
war in which we all strive to suffer to-
gether, disassociate themselves for
much longer than they think" He con-
siders the severance as a sincere, fun
damental and incurable antagonism OF
principles with regard to the empire al
large and our consequent policy" AS
there is this honest and irreconcilable
difference on questions of the first inn
portance," he sees no favorable issue.
Lord Rosebery concludes with a
gloomy touch. 1T is a matter of sor-
row and anxiety" he says ito see
weak Government faced by a weaker
opposition at a juncture of foreign hos
tility and international competition
which needs all the vigilance, power
and agility at our command"
He believes that Great Britain is at

GO HAND IN HAND.

All experience with horseless carrla-
ges and vehicles of every sort shows
more and more clearly that the success
of the automobile is inseparably con-
nected with the Improvement of coun-
try roads and city streets. Where the
highways are always in good condition
nothing prevents the auto" from do
ing what is desired. 1t goes anywhere
and does anything within reason. But
where or when the roads are soft the
horseless carriage is a practical failure.
This broad fact means much for the
improvement of the highways of the
United States. 1t will give new force to
the agitation for good roads which has
been gaining ground of late.-Cleveland

NEW SPORTING PARK.
Scheme to Take the Place of Kapiolani
Race Track.

The Pau lands bought at the auction
sale of the Widemann property yester-
day may be utilized for a sporting
park. The ground was bought by Col.
w. Fl. CornWell with that view i'm mind
for $1,000 and it is said that the bid
der was quite willing to have followed
up the price for another thousand or
so had there been any competition.
As president of the local racing and
driving association and an ardent pat
ron of the turf, Mr. Cornwell has long
deplOred the necessity of giving up the
track at Kapiolani track and, with
others devoted to track interests, has
been eagerly on the lookout for prop
erty that might prove a substitute. The
Pau lands are admirably situated for
the purpose being right on the car line
to WAIKIKI about a quarter of a mile
this side of the Moana hotel on the
mauka side of the road.
The present idea is to fill in the ponds
now covering about half of the twenty
acres, build a half mile track with the
stables and grand stand and make an
other inside track for bicycle or run
ming races. a baseball diamond will
be built and a part of the interior
utilized as a polo ground A high board
fence will be a prominent feature of
the scheme being imperative to the Sc
curing of whatever profits may lie in
the enterprise, which will be a costly
one.
The cost of filling in the grounds has
been roughly estimated from $50 to
500 per acre and the necessary inn
provements will probably run into an
other $4,000 1t is conjectured that the
enterprise as a whole will be taken up
by a hui in the interests of sport as
well as a commercial speculation.

The Wilder Steamship Company has
sent notices to the various neads of
government departments that hereafter
it will accept cash only in payment for
transportation. 1t has been the custom
for employees of the government to give
orders, but now that the treasury is
getting low. the company has had to
wait for the cash. The Board of Health
yesterday received the following let
ter:
Or. j. s. Pratt, Executive officer
Board of Health.
Dear Sir: 1t is the invariable rule
of this company to charge cash for pas
sages. An exception has been made in
favor of the government as payment of
passage orders have always been met
promptly heretofore. Now that same
are paid by warrants, we cannot ac-
cept these orders hereafter, and all
fares will be cash. excepting on lepers
from Honolulu to the Leper Settle
ment.
we are paying out large amounts to
the government for Wharfage, etc. and
if passage orders will be accepted by
the government in lieu of cash we are
quite willing to continue to accept them
as heretofore.
Yours truly,
