decided at Last.

The supreme court has just disposed
of warrant that for twenty years has
been the subject of litigation and at
tempted legislation. 1t was for 50, 435,
and was issued in 1881 by Comptroller
j. n. Nolen in favor of w. C. Brandon,
who claimed this amount as balance
due for Strengthening out the records
of the East Tennessee land Office.
Comptroller Nolen refused to issue the
warrant until mandamused by the
courts. He, however, wrote across it
in red ink, Not to be paid until an
appropriation is made by the legisla-
ture." The warrant has been presented
to eve-y treasurer since and been turned
down, and attempts have been made
without success to have the amount in
cluded in every appropriation bill of
each succeeding legislature. Finally
mandamus proceedings were begun
last year against Treasurer Craig to
compel him to pay the warrant. The
treasurer won the case in the lower
court and the supreme court affirmed
this decision.

EGRY's HARD LUCK.

Among the passengers on the Sierra
last night from the Colonies was Pau
Egry the violinist. Mr.. Egry did not
come down the gang way with his usual
aplomb for he was bewhiskered, and
begrimed when he set his feet on Anne
rican soil Mr.. Egry returned with a
tale of hard luck. He went with the
Josephine Stanton Opera Company to
Auckland, N. u. The company struck g
frost for the first two weeks but the
did not and he got hOmesick besides
did not and he got home sick besides
for he slowed away on the Sierra at
Auckland. He was discovered and an
attempt made to put him off the boat
but he escaped and managed to remain
hidden until the vessel was well out tc
sea. We was made to wash pots and
peel potatoes coming up to Honolulu
and he did not relish the task. He says
he prefers to finger the strings of a vio-
lin to juggling potato Feelings and dish
rags.

MORE VESSELS NEEDED
DEMAND FOR COAST PASSAGE
EXCEEDS SUPPLY.
over Fifty Were Left by the China
and Probably Many More by the
Sierra Today.

The need for more passenger steamers
to the Coast has seldom been so for
ClDiy demonstrated as during the last
ten days. SO great was the rush of
travel to the Coast that on two OF the
largest vessels which come to this port
accommodations were found to be in
adequate and number of people were
forced in consequence to remain be-
nIpu on both occasions.
The first was that of the China which
sailed from here on the 10th. The book
ings were so heavy that acCommoda-
tions aboard the vessel were soon at
premium. Matters We're SO bad that
nearly all of the officers disposed of
their state rooms to some Of the pas
sengers who could not secure cabins
| but desired to leave on that vessel
Judge Humphreys was forced to pay
a premium for the chief steward S
cabin while Colonel Spalding paid $500
to Captain Seabury to surrender his
cabin to Miss Spalding. In spite of
this fact no less than 90 people had to
remain behind on account of there be-
! ing no room.
! Conditions as bad occurred today
| with the Sierra. The bookings on the
Sierra were far too great for the ac-
| commodations which the agents ex-
| pected she would have to the coast.
and in addition, matters were made
worse by the return of the Zealandia
on Sunday with good sized crowd
I of passengers who We're demanding
that they be transferred to the Sierra.
The agents of the Oceanic Company
were sorely tried during the rush of
| yesterday and today to make the book
| ings but all things considered they did
! very well. Those who did leave had
to submit to being badly crowded as
many as three being placed in some
! staterooms. Others, holding first
! class cabin passage were put into the
second class cabins and given the
| privilege of eating at a second table in
the cabin. Naturally this caused con-
siderable grumbling. Many of these
who had booked for passage declined
| to leave on the vessel when they learn
ed how crowded she was to be.
/ AS the result there are many people
who are anxious to leave here but are
unable to do so owing to there being
! but one other boat on which they can
! depart within the next two weeks.
! The Zealandia will probably be ready
| to leave the first of the week and after
| her the Peru from the Orient will be
| the first for nearly two weeks. The
! Peru is due o~ July 10th. Already many
| have booked on her.
! What is needed is either more vessels
or else the privilege of travelling on
| foreign as was possible before annex
alton. The American laws are work
! ing hardship on the public.

POLICE AFTER TIE DRVRS
SEVEN OFFENDERS IN POLICE
COURT TO-DAY.
Judge Wilcox Said That Drivers Were
Frequently Cause of the Men Driving
Too Fast.

The police have inaugurated a cru
SADIE against the teamsters who drive
their dray horses faster than a walk.
This morning there were seven often
ders before Judge Wilcox, all OF whom
had been arrested at various times
on King street yesterday, Only one
pleaded guilty. The rest equivocated
and related some story tending to prove
that they were innocent.
The cause for the sudden descent on
the teamsters was probably due to a
remark made by Judge Wilcox yes
terday in passing on the case of All
Kai, a Chinese charged with a sim ar
offence at the head of Nuuanu street.
The court remarked that IL seemed
rather odd to him that the officer
should manifest such a sudden desire
to arrest the Chinese at an out of the
way place like the head of Nuuanu
street when other officers We're in
different to the manner in which drays
