Miller & Lux are Issued a Tempo.

Yesterday before Judge Hawley, i'll
the U. S. District Court, an order was
granted Miller & Lux for water emo
ugh to maintain their stock at the
home ranch. They asked for twenty
feet of water, but the judge did not
grant the amount, as the case was
purely one of an injunction variety
and not a question of priority. He
granted what is equal to four feet Of
water, which order is to hold until
the 18th of November, when the mer-
it's of the case will come to issue.
The decision of the Judge in the
matter seemed to meet the approval
of all the contending people in the
case, even the lawyers on the oppos.

suit. .a-o
Miller & Lux, through their attor.

DANISH WEST INDIES.
Washington officials Do Not Regard
the Question of Cession to United
States as Closed.

Washington. Feb. 1o.-The govern
rnent here does not regard the ques-
ton of the eession of the Danish
West Indies as closed by any means.
It is said that certainly the negotia-
tions have not been closed by any
act of the United States, and If Dem
mark has halted In the transfer it
was from internal eonsiderat and
the conditions which caused the de-
lay can be changed only by the Dam
ish government. Technically, the
United States has negotiated Al
treaty with Denmark for the cessio1s
of the islands, and not until next
June will the period of time allowed
for the exchange of notifications ex-
pire- Any time before that date the
Danish government is free to ratify
the treaty, and as this has already
been done by the United States sem
ate, the negotiations would close
with success.

BOWEN DISPLEASED.


Washington, Feb. 10--As the Ven

bunal, Yet their protocol is so drawn
as to practically require such prefer

submission of the case to that tri-

Mr.. Bowen feels that the German
protocol would not be acceptable to the
Venezuelan government and he has
therefore declined to sign it in its
present form, which necessitates ref

Papeete the following day with 400
destitute survivors. The captain of
the Excelsior estimated the total loss
of life to be 500. These figures COM
prised only the deaths on the three
islands of Hao. Hikuera and Makokau,
whose ordinary population is 1900.
On Hikuera island, where 1000 inha BIZ
tants were engaged in pearl diving,
nearly one-haIf were drowned. On an
adjacent island 100 more were washed
out to sea. Makeno and Hao are de-
populated. Conservative estimates at
Tahiti place the number of islands
visited by tidal wave and hurricane at
so. All of them are under the control
of the French governor at Tahiti The
surviving Inhabitants are left desti-
tute of food, shelter and clothing, all
having been swept away by the storm.
Relief Measures.
The French government upon re
ceipt of news of the disaster, took
prompt measures to relieve the dis
tressed district and dispatched two
warships, the Duranee and Zelee, with
fresh water and provisions. The
Italian man of war CaIabria accom-
panied the two French vessels on their
GRAND of mercy. As the supply of
fresh water and provisions was totally
exhausted by the Storm it is feared
that many lives will beslost before the.
relief ships arrive.
Sought Refuge I'm Trees.
AS the islands were barely 90 feet
above sea level, and not surrounded by
coral reefs, it was necessary for all the
inhabitants to take to the cocoanut
trees when the tidal wave began to
cover the land. These trees grow to an
immense height, many reaching an al
titude of 100 feet. All of the lower
trees were covered by the raging sea,
which swept with pitiless force about
and over them. The natives in the taller
trees were safe until the cocoanut
roots gave way and then they, too,
were swept onward far out into the
sea-
Thousands of tons Of copra and over
200 tons of mother of pearl shells are
known to be lost. The pearl shells are
valued at 81 800 per ton, and many vaIu-
able pearls may now be lost to the
world forever, as these were onnsid-
cred some of the best pearl islands IN
the world.
