promise--Two Decisions Filed.

The assessment of the Honolulu

turn of the company, the assessment
is nearly doubled Tax Assessor Holt

when the company had returned it's
assessable valuation at $685.. 0S2.So. The
company offered to amend its return
to a neat million. but the greatest con-
cession the assessor would make was
a reduction of his estimate to a round
$780, 00 Now the Tax Appeal Court
decides that s., 351. O15.s5 is the just val
uation. Mr.. Holt only differed from
the court in his figuring by emitting

Description of tho Blowing Up and
sinking of the PctrOPaNIOvsiS.

St. Petersburg. April 1S.-In the
dramatic description of the sinking of
the Petropavlovsk off Port Arthur,
wired from Lao Yang by a Russian
correspondent. portion of the account
referring to the blowing up of the Pet
ropavlovsq was delayed. 1t is as fol-
lows:
Moving a reduced speed, the Pet
ropavlovsk came abreast of Electric
Cliff. The torpedo boats were entering
the harbor when suddenly from the
starbOnr1 side II the Petropavlovsk
white colt;mn shot up.
There was Il double muffied eXplo-
sion, and the wi.rship became covered
with orange-CCiored smoke. They're
firing a lToadc.de." cried gunner
standing beside me, but through my
binoculars l gazod speechless and hor-
ror-sti icken. | could see fragments of
wreckage falling from above the broken
rigging on the foremast and flames
shooting out.
She's sinking! She's sinhng!
walled someone beside me.
The Petropavlovsk began to settle
slowly by the head, keeling far over to
starboard until her rail was under wa
ter. Her bow had already disappeared,
and now the foremast was sinking. 1
could still see the coming tower. Then
her smokestacks disappeared. They
seemed to fall through the water and
the sea began to ergnlf the mainmast.
Her after turret. with its guns point
ing skyward, quickly vanished; then
her stern, with the port propeller still
revolving. l could see figures desper-
ately clutching at the slippery hull,
and tongues of flame. A last explosion,
and all was over. The flagship was no
more.
Boa-s from the torpedo boat de-
stroyar Gaydamak hurried to the scene
of the disaster. 1t was 40 minutes past
6 in the morning.

The Disposition still Manifest to
Scout Admiral ToGO's Version of
the PetrOpavIOvsk Disnstcr and
to Surround 1t With Mystery and
Uncertainty.

St Petersburg, April 1S.-The au-
thorities here are recovering from the
depression which followed the last
weeks disasters They seem imbued
with new and feverish energy. The
greatest activity prevails. The public
Is more aroused than at any time since
the war began, and now is thirsting
for revenge. Crowds gather on the
streets The Russ extra bulletin
boards are constantly surrounded, al
though little fresh news is posted.
The vivid eyewitness pictures of the
torpedo boat fight and the Petro-
paylovsk disaster transmitted from
Russian correspondent is reprinted
here and is the talk of st. Petersburg
and of official and private circles, being
the first connected account published.
1t also contained the first definite in
formation that Vice-Admira! Makaroff
was at his post on the bridge when the
explosion occurred. Besides, it put at
rest all doubts as to where the ship
was struck. She went down bow first,
as the Victoria did. and exactly as
Makaroft's own model did when, dur
ing a lecture which he delivered IN
1894, he demonstrated the instability
of heavily armored ships and the i'm
possibility at the time of a disaster,
by collision mats or otherwise, Of re-
storing the equilibrium of such steel
monsters.
The admiralty still lacks definite
data as to the cause of the catastrophe,
although the talk of boiler explosion
and submarine boats continues. The
public shows an indfspositiCn 10 ac-
cept Vice-Admiral Togo's version that
his mines were responsible.
Members of the naval staff frankly
admit that they do not know the
cause of the disaster, but some of them
already are inclined to admit the prob
ability that the enemy's avowal is
true.
Perhaps the mystery Nil be like
