THE START.


Petersburg is only II days. In time
this may be reduced to close to u days.
This means on the present basis that
the time of the mails from such ports
as Cheefoo to London has been cut
down to 20 days. This puts New York
closer to Shanghai by mail than is San
Francisco, and gives a great advantage
to the East over the West.
The improvements being made by
the Russian government along the
Shartung peninsula are wonderful.
The new town of Dalny, which is being
built short distance from Port Ar
thur, will cost something like 100000
roubles, and there is not a single in
habitant. The town is being built of
stone and brick and win be one of the
finest in its equipment in the East. All
of this work is being done before the
town Is opened. Then it win be made
the terminus of the new railroad line
and the people will be sold or rented
the houses which are now being con-
3truced.
Il found that Picking is being rebuilt
and is taking its place where it was
before. The court had returned to
Peking and the people had resumed
their usual occupations. The outlook
for business in the East is good with
the exception of Russia, and people are
fiocking in to have Il hand in the de-
yelODment"

GRAHAM PLAYS
TAG WITH DEATH
Again Tries to Take Ills Life
by Cutting His
Wrist.

Playing tag with death is grue-
some amusement with which John Ora
ham Is entertaining himself and caus-
ing his friends all manner of concern.
Graham recovered consciousness late
Wednesday night after his unsuccessful
attempt to slip the mortal coil, and yes
terday morning he was in a frame OF
mind which gave his watchers uneasi-
ness.
About noon Graham made another
attempt on his life. While a nurse
back was turned the determined man
reached to table and, taking tum-
bier therefrom, broke il and with a
jagged piece Of glass sawed savagely at
his left wrist to open an artery. The
noise attracted the nurse, who turned
in time to wrest the glass from him. 1t
WIS found that the wound was not a
serious one, although he lost consider
able blood by It, The cash was bound
and pains taken to see that there was
nothing else near the patient which
could be used with fatal effect. A po-
lice officer will watch Graham until he

morning, engaged n room In Japanese

tempted to end his life with dull
knife blade. Several wounds were
made in his neck and much damage
done TO that particular part OF his anat-
omy, but he is yet in the land of the
living and now lies on a cot in the
Queens Hospital unable to speak.
Honda came 10 the city on the s: 80
O'Clock train. He went to the hotel of
Fusikima, on King street, and wan
deted around the place until about
noon when he was seen 10 go into an
Clubhouse connected with the main
building. A japanese named Myamura
who passed by saw the figure of a man
lying doubled up In one corner and also
saw blood flowing upon the noor. He
raised an alarm and picked the man
up. Honda was still conscious, al
though suffering from number Of hor-
rble wounds. The police were called
and the man was taken 10 the Queen :
Hospital. The knife used was a COM
mon, iron-handled II Y l." affair with
one blade about two and a half inches
long. Honda had first slashed himself
across the throat and then made a cut
at right angles to this one. Not con-
tent with doing 40 much damage he
forced the blade straight into tine

wound II is supposed that the blade
was then worked around in a circular
manner. Lastly the blade was pushed
UP from beneath the jaw into the base
OF the tongue. large quantity of
blood is believed to have flowed into
his lungs. The Japanese is in a des-
perate condition and It is not known
whether he can live or NOT.

PARTY ORGANIZATION.
The discussion of the organization of
the party was then taken up and Chair
man Makainai explained the necessity
of making the precinct clubs power.
There was considerable talking over the
proposal and the motion finally carried,
providing for the appointment of a
committee of three, for the purpose OF
visiting the various islands and carry
ing on this work. The committee was
named as follows: j. NJ. Poepoe. Da-
vid Kupihea and ID. Kalauokalani Jr.
The longest and warmest fight of the
session was over the proposals looking
to the naming of candidates Tor the
Legislature. The declaration OF Will

that he would visit the islands and Sc
lect the candidates for the places, was
not permitted to have weight. f. w.
Beckley went on record as insisting
that the Islands be permitted TO select
their own candidates, and said that
Maui would claim this cession.
Chairman Makainai proposed that the
plan outlined in the new constitution
for the party, which was suggested in
the convention and which was the prin-
cipal cause of the bolt, be taken up by
the party. By the terms of the clause
the various district conventions will be
held during the month of September.

SHE MAY HAVE
HAD DISASTER

Captain J. Mattson of the American
ship Columbia said yesterday that he
thought there was but little doubt that
some disaster had befalen the four
masted iron bark Fort George. Captain
Mcclure, which is now out 92 days from
Port Prize, South Australia, bound for
this port In ballast. Captain Mattson's
opinion should carry considerable
weight as he recently sailed from the
same port via Newcastle for Honolulu
and made the trip in 60 days.
Captain Mattson says that on leaving
Port Prize and until having rounded
Tasmania the Fort George at the sea-
son OF year in which she left Port Pirle,
would strike in the ordinary course of
events a succession Of very heavy gales
all the way around Tasmania Captain
Madison himself experienced these gales
and describes that bit of the trip as "a
very rough one He thinks that If the
Fort George had been dsmasted and
towed into any port she should have
been reported long ago. but this far no
report of even another vessel speaking
the Fort George has come to hand and
as "A consequence he believes that she
must be in trouble.
AS the Fort George IL a good ship, a
fast sailer, and is only In ballast, she
should have made this trip under ordi-
nary conditions In something like SIS or
60 days.
The Fort George is very well Off,

SERIOUSLY HURT
Accidentally Shot While Resting
in a Hammock at
Home.

Walter Renton. son of Manager Rem
ton OF Eva plantation, was seriously
wounded yesterday morning by the ac-
cidental discharge of Il small rifle with
which he was playing. The ball, of 20
caliber, passed into the abdomen, pune
turing the intestines, and the condition
of the lad late last evening was regard
ed as serious.
All that can be learned of the acct
dent is that the youth, who is u years
of age, was in hammock at his home
and the rife was beside him. He was
handling it and it was accidentally dis
charged. The ball entered the body
on the right side and the members of
the family, summoned by his cries for
help, found him unconscious from the
pain and shock. DR.. Davis, the physi-
clan at Eva, recognizing the serious
aspects of the case, asked for a con-
sultation and Dr. CD. Cooper was
summoned from the city, a special train
being pressed into service.
An examination was held and the
physicians decided that the situation
performed, and this was done. The lad
did not rally from It's effects at once
and DR.. Cooper spent the night in at
tendance upon him. Mr.. Renton was
in the city at the time and did not
know Of the accident until his arrival
at home. The accident occurred at
about 1880 o'clock and the news of 1t
was received here through telephone
messages to members of the firm of
Castle & Cooke. The lad Is the eldest
of four children OF Mr.. Renton.

is to name a date upon which the va
rious conventions are TO be held.
1t was decided that the stumping of
the Islands should be taken up sys-
Dramatically and with vigor There was
but one opinion on this subject. though
there was some disagreement upon the
proposal of names for the work. As
finally adopted the following will have
charge of the canvass on the various
islands:

Maui--Beckley.
Hawail-First district, William Moss

ecutive committee.
In each case there will be a large
number of men who will act as assist
ants to the men selected to have charge,
and there will be pushed an active
campaign, beginning within the next
two weeks.
II was decided that there should be
held on Saturday Of this week, and a
permit was secured from the Sheriff, a
mass meeting in Emma Square, at
which there should be a dozen or more
speeches. The principal address will be
made by Wilcox and other speakers will
be ID. kalauokalani, Edgar Caypless, ].
