AMERICAN WAS
NOT DAMAGED

Agent c. P. Morse and the divers who
examined the steamer American of the
American Hawaiian line at Kahului
Saturday returned to Honolulu in the
Claudine yesterday morning. The
divers made a most searching examin-
alton of the vessels hull and reported
to the board of survey that the steam
er had received no damage whatever.
No plates We're even denied and a lit
tie paint scraped off was the only in
dication of anything unusual. After
the outside investigation a searching
examination of the interior of the YES
sci was made, the compartments being
sounded and every effort made to locate
leaks No leakage was discovered. The
board of survey, consisting of Captain
Miller, surveyor of the San Francisco
tain Parker of the Claudine and Cap
tain Randall of the tug Leslie Baldwin,
voted unanimously that the ship was
in a fit condition to load the remainder
of her cargo and proceed to New York
According to the reports the steamer
was about two and a half miles off
shore when she went aground. The
shoal on which she struck is a long
bank of mud and sand running from
Kamalo point, Molokai. far out to sea.
II is we'll known by the captains of is
land steamers, but is not marked on
the government charts. AS the vessel
was so far from shore and there was
no obstruction charted the captain nat
urally supposed that he was in deep
water. No blame whatever was at
tached to the officers of the vessel by
the board of survey.

FOREIGN CELEBRITIES.

Alfred De Rothschilds, one Of the
famous banking family, has private
circus at his country seat, Halton House,
England. The ring, about 100 yards in
diameter, is surrounded by trees.
Eminent German professors are be-
coming proverbial for their longevity.
The latest to celebrate his SEVENTEEN
birthday is Ewald Herring, Of the Ger
man university at Prague. Like Helm
holtz, Brucke, Dubois, Fechner and
others, he has done original work IN
several branches of science, but perhaps
his most important discoveries relate
to the physiology of memory.
On Lord Kitchener's recent tour in
the interior of the Simla hills he re-
ceived an address of welcome from the
raJah Of Bashahr, who assured him that
the songs of your excellency's STAIN
less glory, of the sincere, impartial and
the honest acts of the late Transvaal
war (Which are the real ornaments of
the honorable officers of your excellen-
cy's position), are cheerfully sung by the
heavenly nymphs in Paradise"
William Evans, formerly protector
Of Chinese in the Straits Settlements,
who was induced by the British gov
ernment to go to South Africa to super
intend the arrangements connected with
the importation and the housing of the
Chinese in South Africa, has refused to
remain there. He said he would never
consent to be slave driver, and that
the conditions under which the Chinese
worked in South Africa were inde-
scribable.
The late Sir William Vernon Har-
court, though an ardent fighter. was
one of the most forgiving and kind
hearted men. On one occasion, years
ago, T. P. O'Connor asked him in the
house Of commons regarding the size of
cells in convict prisons. Sir William
gave the desired information with such
eXactness as to suggest laugh in the
house, but cheers followed when the
head of the home office quietly ex.
planned that he had considered it his
auty to visit several such cells, SO as to
know by personal knowledge how the
unfortunate beings who were con-
demned to dwell there were accustomed

SOUTHERN IRON TRADE.
Iron Pipe Shipments to Panama In
augurated.

augurated.
Birmingham, Ala, Dec 1.-THE fea-
ture of the past week in the Southern
iron trade has been the Inauguration
of iron pipe shipments to Panama for
use in the construction of the Isthmian
canal. Twenty-Five carloads of large
cast iron pipe left the Bessemer works
of the United States Cast Iron Pipe
and Foundry Company and like ship
ment went from the same company's
plant at Admission. The pipe goes to
Mobile by rail and thence to Panama
by boat. The United States govern
ment is the purchaser, and the order
is a rush one, but it is so large that
several months viii be required to fill
it.
The price of Southern pig iron con-
tinues to look upward. No. l foundry
is quoted at $14.25 and some sales of
No. 2 are being made at $13.75, which
is an advance over week ago. The
market is strong and the demand alb
normal. In fact, few sales are being
made for next years delivery, as the
purchasers have the best of reasons,
they say, to look for a continued adj
vance. While shipments are heavy,
they are the fulf1llment of sales made
some time ago. Almost all the sales
being made now are to remote points.
The recent announcement that produc-
tion in the country generally is being
rapidly increased did not have the
slightest depressing effect upon the
market in this section
There has been practically no
change in the productive capacity of
Alabama during the past several
weeks, but at least three big furnaces
are preparing to start up with the be-
ginning of the new year They are
the sixth furnace of the Tennessee
Coal, Iron and Railroad Company's
Ensley plant, one of the city furnaces
of the Sloss-S Sheffield Steel and Iron
Company and the new stack of the
Woodward Iron Company. They will
materially increase the output of this
immediate district, and to these fur
naces will probably be added several
smaller ones, provided the raw mate
rial can be had to supply them
The old differences between the
union miners and the furnace COM
panies regarding a wage scale have
not yet been adjusted, and this fact op-
crates to some extent in curtailing the
supply of raw material, although some
non-union men have been brought in
and the convict labor also helps to
keep up the coal supply. All the COM
mercial mines are also running on full
time, but nevertheless considerable
coke is coming here from West Vir-
ginia to help out, and there is no early
indication of a change in this condi-
tion. Aside from this fact, the indus
trial situation is most satisfactory and
the outlook very encouraging

other day. III an architect builds a
good house, his friends, on account Of it.,
don't regard him as god, and he doekn't
regard himself as a god: The same with
an engineer. Fl he builds q good bridge

there is about it. But if man writes
a good book, why, then there must be
genius in him, and before this genius he
himself, as well as all the world, must
bow down. Rot.
Literary conceit is distasteful to me"
Mr. Chambers said, and / like to see it
taken down. 1t was well taken down in
the case of New York man recently
He has writsen a novel, 'Gimlets,' and
the public Libraries have put this book

NOTES HERE AND THERE.

1t takes mail at least seven days to
go from Chicago to London.
San Francisco is thinking Of having
a worlds fair on the completion Of the
Panama canal.
The skeletons Of four men who mys-
teriously disappeared there, between
two days, 20 years ago, have been dis
covered in an old water hole near
Quartrite, Ariz. They were on their
way to California and no doubt were
murdered for their money.
Eastern capitalists have bought
three of the heaviest timbered canyons
in the Rockies near Colorado Springs,
Col, with the purpose of making a
great game preserve. More than 300
head of elk have already been pur-
chased. 1t Is reported that the princi-
pal stock will be elk, deer and ante
lope.
A curious effect of the war in the
far east is the migration Of sharks to
European waters. The submarine ex-
plosions are supposed to have fright
ened the creatures, which have passed
through the Suez canal, and have been
making havoc among the fishes of the
Adriatic. Invasion of the Black sea
even has been feared.
The forestry department of the Unit
ed States government has three expert
men in the field at Colorado Springs,
Col. Close to the city they have es-
tablished nurseries and they have col
lected and planted the seeds which
with growth will replace the fallen and
burned timber on Pixies Peak and the
adjacent-range of the Rockies. The
work may cover a period of 20 years,
and it is estimated the expenditure
will approximate $2,5O0,000.
Mexico is credited with being at the
head of the Latin-American countries
in the matter Of letters. Besides pos
sessing the Oldest organs of Spanish
American journalism, it is said to have
in active existence the first library
established in America, which is now
at least 300 years old. In Chilli, Ar
gentina and Peru there are papers that
have been published for 80 years and
more. One is the Ell Comercio, of
Lima, which has had career of 60
years Of uninterrupted daily issue.

A REIGN OF TERROR

SUCCESSFUL JAIL DELIVERY.

Anticipated.

Meridian, Miss, Dec. 9.-NeWs was
received here this afternoon of q start
ling state of affairs in Kemper county,
through a telegram to Judge Cochran,
who is now holding Circuit Court here.
The dispatch requested the imme-
date presence of the Judge in De.
Kalb, the county seat, as the people
are terribly aroused over murder and
jail delivery, both of which occurred
yesterday, and as a consequence more
bloodshed is feared.
The dead body of Jim Abercrombie
was discovered this morning by a ne
gro in the road, three and a half miles
from Scooba, which added to the ex.
citement caused by the daring Jail de-
livery of the previous afternoon, as
Abercrombie had been liberated from
the Jail only a few hours. before the
prisoners escaped.
No one has been arrested for the
murder of Abercrombie, but suspicion
is attached to a witness against the
dead man, who thetified in the trial of
the latter for illicit retailing of liquor,
and between whom previous difficul-
ty had occurred.
Abercrombie's case was peculiar, as
he had been sentenced to pay fine Of
$500 and to serve ninety days in Jail,
but under the law of 1896 he got his
attorney to secure his liberty yester-
day.
In the DeKalb Jail were several 9TH
er prisoners sentenced for running
blind tigers at the same time that
Abercrombie was, and all suffered un'
der the heavy penalties imposed by
the stern DEGREES of Judge Cochran in
his recent attempts to break up law
lessness in Kemper county, among
them being Caroline Powell, Calvin
Robinson, Henry Lane, Hartwell Will
cox and Irving Henderson, all white.
The last named, however, has mur-
der charge against him.
Hartwell Wilcox is alleged to be the
ringleader in the jail delivery, as he
is considered a desperate character.
The prison was almost wrecked yes
terday afternoon about o'clock VIXEN
Wilcox and his two companions, Caro-
line Powell and Calvin Robinson, made
their escape, the rear wall being torn
out as though struck by battering
ram.
Henry Lane and Irving Henderson
made no effort to escape, and say they
knew nothing about the plot
Judge Cochran is too ill to go to the
scene of the troubles, but sent court
representative at once, and officers
were directed to lose no time in trying
to recapture the fugitives.'

There is in Denver, however, million.

generous man, and in his own way, he
assists the poor, but to organized char

subscriptions, but these requests are al
most invariably refused.
