EX-QUEEN STILL
CHERIShES HOPE

The San Francisco Chronicle of
March 2s has this:
Liliuokalani, former Queen of Ha-
wall, arrived from the East on the be-
lated overland limited last night and
is guest at the California Hotel. The
former monarch is attended by mod
est suit of three attendants, who have
ministered to her personal wants and
helped her to while away the hours as
she sat in her hotel at Washington
watching the deliberations of Congress
throughout the session recently brought
to a close. Nearly every year since
the overturning of the monarchy Liliu-
okalani has journeyed over the seas
and across the continent on the eve OF
the assembling of Congress to urge
the Administration and the lawgivers
at washington to consider her claims
against the Government
At the close of each session she has
found that Congress preferred to re-
gard the affairs of the republic as more
pressing than the needs of royalty, and
she has returned somewhat crestfailen
TO her island home, only TO take up the
fight with renewed hopes upon the as
sembling of another Congress. Her ex-
perience at washington during the
Congressional session just closed has
been very much the same as In pre-
yious years, and she is now on her way
back TO Hawaii, still hopeful, however
that Congress at its next session VIII
enact some acceptable measure for her
benefit and relief.
During the recent session Senate
committee recommended the appropria-
ton OF 5000, 900 as a settlement of Ii
Iiuokalanrs claims for damages on ac-
count OF the loss of her throne, the
valuable crown lands OF Hawaii and all
of the revenues thereof. The bill did
not get through Congress, on account
OF the crush OF other business. but Lii
liuokaiani expressed the hope and be-
lief last night that IT would pass at
the next session. She said the settle
ment would be acceptable to her.
Liiuokalani has aged greatly. in
years and appearance. since she first
became a familiar figure a the national
capital. but she insisted last evening
that she was still in excellent health.
and barring the effects OF her long trip
across the continent. in the enjoyment

attention to the Olokele ditch, watch

been demonstrated that it would carry

lation to the authorized bond issue of
500. 600. President Alexander said that
bonds to the amount of s15O,oO0 had
been sold. which would completely pay
for the work done on the new ditch to
date.
It was stated to be the unanimous
opinion of the board of directors, which
was reelected, that it was to the best
interests of the Makawei Sugar Com
pany that the payment of dividends
should be deferred until there should be
a considerable surplus on hand It was
reported that 1855 additional shares of
the capital stock Of the Hawaiian Sugar
Company had been acquired by ex-
change for an equal number of shares
of treasury stock of the MakaweH SUI
gar Company, that the last named
corporation now owned 4s,435 shares of
the Hawaiian and that when the pur-
chase was completed the Makaweli
would hold 50.sSo shares of the Hawa-
iian-or more than the controlling in
terest of that company. The financial
statement showed that the disburse-
ments of the year had amounted to
s1,4s16a, and that s6575.s3 cash remain
ed on hand on December 81 last. The

MONEY AND BUSINESS.

One more week like the last two and the su-
perstitious element in the stock market would
decide that Thursday was day Of declining
quotations. Yet there was no more logical ex-
PLANTATION Of the break in prices last Thursday
than that 1t had happened just a week earlier.
Although these two days stand out somewhat
clearly the weakest spots In the fortnight. yet
the general level Of quotations has almost con-
stantly tended downward until the average Of
the sixty most active railway securities is about
s. lower. Apparently there was successful
manipulation for the short account, as total
transactions we're not sufficiently large to indi-
cate general liquidation by the long interests
There undoubtedly was more or less discour-
aged selling. precipitated by the growing i'm
precision that there was nothing in sight to &d-
vance quotations. while many depressing infiu-
ences were imminent. There was some calling
OF loans in preparation for the payment on the
new Manhattan stock, and this frightened the
money market just sufficiently to create uneasi-
ness. With such large gains In railway earn

TIE ERIE CANAL IMPROVEMENT.

To the discussion of the merits Of the proposed
deep waterway from Lake Ontario to the Hud-
son, as compared with an enlargement Of the
present Erie Canal to accommodate 1000
4. ton bsrges, valuable contribution Is made in
another column by Gustav 81. Schwab. It VIII
repay careful consideration by those interested
in the question. In this communication the
writer expresses unqualified faith In the con-
clusion Of Major Symons, recently quoted By
The Tribune, that the cost of Transporting
grain from Buffalo TO New-York would be
greater IL the work was done by lake steam
ers than IL performed by barges. An emphatic
opinion to the same effect from Mr.. Carnegie
Sc also quoted. Mr.. Sckwab then presents two
additional arguments, one Of which is based
upon his own exceptional familiarity with the
conditions which control the transshipment Of
freight in New-York Harbor. In this kind of
knowledge the American manager OF the North
German Lloyd Steamship Company has few
equals His utteFances are those Of an expert.
Mr. Schwab declares that after grain had
reached the metropolis IT could not be directly
transferred to ocean vessels from steamers of
the lake type. Some intermediate agency (ight-
ers or floating elevators. doubtlesO would be
required. In other words, the freight must be
handled twice instead Of once, and the extra
charges would greatly exceed those now i'm
posed at Buffalo. Besides the necessity for
paying dividends on a larger investment OF
capital and for more costly maintenance, the
project for shipping through from Duluth and
other upper lake ports to New-York would
render necessary q special tax at this end
Of the route. Whatever might be thonght of
the unrighteousnsss OF such- actt0n, It would
be in the highest degree tnpolitic It would
give TO the Canadian canal system q dangerous
advantags. Tt would be bothersome fact to

Mr.. Schw1b is recalling the utteranees Of the
late Abram 8. Hewitt on enother phase Of
