II is not particularly the West to
which Hawaii must cater for tourist
business. The East is the place
from which the pleasure seekers
come. In that part of the country
there is more money and fewer
Winter resorts. Besides II has be-
come the practice there to seek out
new countries for both Summer aud
Winter outings. A local hotel man

that moro than one half OF the
tourists that arrived iu Hawaii dur
ing the past Winter came from the
territory east OF the Mississippi.
What conclusion is to be drawn
from that Simply that New Eng
land and the Middle States represent
the country that is to be worked
upon and the territory must be
worked direct. Time and booklets
and money spent at st Louis will go
for naught. People are not there
to look for vacation resorts. They
are there to see The sights and that
is all they care for. The real tourist,
the class tha. Hawaii wants, lie at

As TO HOME RULERS.

There are certSin Democrats who
still feel that the party to which
they belong should knuckle to the
Home Rulers and humbly solicit
their cooperation in the approach
ing campaign. 1t is argued by them
that the Home Rulers have the
votes, particularly in the Fifth Dis
triot. and that as everything is fair
in loye, var and politics, COM
promise would not be out OF place.
They affect to see in such q proposi-
tion a lower house OF their own
kind and control, or very near
that, Of the Ssnate. They urge,
moreover, that the principles OF the
Democratic party and the Home
Rule party are identical and that a
bssis OF work ty aud between the
two should essily be reached.

UNDER CLOUD OF CHARGES.
U. S. Attorney Mccomber of Nome
District Resigns.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. oMcComb-
er of North Dakota presented to the
president the resignation of Melvin
Grigsby, United States attorney for
the Nome district, in Alaska. The
resignation has been accepted to take
effect July /. No intimation is given
as to Grigsby's successor.
More than year Attorney General
Knox recommended to the president
that Grigsby be dismissed for disobe-
dience of orders of the department in
leaving his post without permission.
Subsequently charges were preferred
against him, in which it was alleged
that he received $4,000 from the
Pioneer Mining company of Nome, the
allegation stating that the sum was
to secure or the Pioneer Mining COM
pany immunity from United States
prosecution. Grigsby admitted the re-
ceipt of the money, half of which was
in cash and the other half in stock
in the Pioneer Mining company, but
said it was an attorneys fee. The
case has been pending until this time.

RUSSIAN LOSSES
OFFICIAL REPORT OF GENERAL
KAsHTALlNSKY RECEIVED.
THE RUSSIANS LOSE 1000 MEN
Toe News Has a Stunning Effect on
the Authorities ct st. Petersburg
Seven Hundred Wounded and Forty
Officers Killed.

ST. PETERSBURG-The Russian
losses at the battle of Kin Lien Cheng
were 600 men and forty officers
far greater than previous reports in
dicated.
This is the official estimate of Ma
jor General Kashtalinsky, who direct
ly commanded the division that suf-
fered the brunt of the attack and
whose report was received Wednesday
by the emperor Many are inclined to
place the Russian losses even higher.
General KGshtalinsky mentions also
that more than 700 wounded had ar
rived at Feng Wang Cheng and these
may not be included in the casualties.
He made no attempt to estimate the
Japanese losses, merely stating that
they must have been colossal.
The magnitude of the Russian losses
had an almost stunning effect on the
authorities and aroused general grief,
mtigated only by satisfaction at the
bravery displayed by the Russian
troops.
Not for a moment was there any in
tention to pay such a terrible price
for delaying the enemy's crossing of
the Yalu river. This fact was known
throughout the city and gave rise to
renewed reports, attributed to official
sources, that General Kuropatkin had
officially censured Lieutenant General
Zassalitch. If this was so, General
Kuropatkin's telegraphed criticism of
Zassaltch was carefully cut out of
the dispatches which have been pub
lished and the general impression
now held is that he will remain in
Manchuria.
General Kashtalinsky's report estab-
fishes the fact that the Russians sus-
tanned the greatest loss in order to
save the two regiments which were
occupying Antung.
The Eleventh regiment was given
the post of honor at the rear, with
instructions to hold back the on-com-
ing Japanese The Twelfth regiment
and the Third batterys quick firing de-
tachment were directed to retire.
BY the time the latter movement
commenced the Japanese had almost
surrounded the Russian position. The
Twelfth regiment was compelled to
charge with the bayonet and succeed
ed in breaking through the enemys
line. The Second battery's quick-fir-
ing detachment, without horses, could
not move the guns and were compelled
| to abandon them. The men of the
Second battery put their shoulders to
! the wheels in an effort to push the
guns up the mountain side, but the
Japanese fire was so hot that they re-
turned to the protection of the Elev-
enth regiment.
Nearer and nearer approached the
Japanese and a charge upon the Elev-
enth regiment and the Second battery
was imminent so he guns were aban-
doned.
Then priest led the troops and
they began the terrible march across
the valley.

HAVE CLAIM AGAINST COLON.
Sufferers From Colon Fire Confer
With Secretary Hay.

WASHINGTON. - Secretary Hay
heard argument by attorneys repre-
senting the American interests in
volved in the Colon fire claims. These
attorneys have formally requested
tho secretary to deduct the amount of
their claims from the fund of $780,
100000 which is to be paid by the
United States to Panama on the
ground that the inhabitants of the
present new republic of Panama,
while in instruction against the Col
ombian government, were responsible
for the destruction of Colon by fire
about twenty years ago, with the re-
sulting loss to American property
owners.
These claims have been presented
several times in recent years to the
Colombian government, which has re-
pudiated them as growing out of the
acts of insurgents, so that the present
method of bringing them forward is
new. Secretary Hay promised to give
careful consideration to the claims,
but has decided that they must be con-
sidered entirely apart from the canal
negotiations and as congress has made
a specific appropriation of 100000
for Panama no deductions can be
made from that appropriation by the
executive on account of any other
claims.
