work in that department was recog-

penchant for statistics.

| Yesterday afternoon the body of q
man was discovered floating in the har.
| Dor near the Fort street wharf, which
was afterward identified as that OF
James w. Girvin. The body was dis
| covered and brought to shore by q
and was Immediately taken to the
morgue.
1t was some time before the body
was identified, the features being al,
tered through the length of time the
body had been in the water, but a
search of the clothing resulted in the
finding of a number of letters. the ad-
dresses upon which left no doubt as to
the identity of the deceased.
An inquest as to the cause of death
has been ordered and will be held this
afternoon, although the attending cir-
cumstances make it plain that "a YER
dict of accidental drowning will be
found. There is nothing at all to lead
to any supposition of foul play. the
deceased being found on the body.
The deceased was last seen alive on
Saturday night about midnight, when
he was observed walking along Ala
zea street in the direction of the water
front. There was nothing whatever
unusual in his appearance or manner.
and the supposition is that he was
walking along the front and in the
darkness missed his way and plunged
over one of the docks into the water.
After the body had been identified it
was removed from the morgue to the
undertaking parlors of H. H Williams.
James w. Girvin was born in Canada
about ffty-six years ago, being a son
of district magistrate of the crown.
He came TO the islands in 1865 and re-
NAMED until 1886, during which time he
was engaged in mercantile pursuits in
Wailuku, Lahaina and Hilo. For
time he was a manager at Lahaina for
one of the stores of Archibald Cleghorn
and filed the same position in Hilo
for the same gentleman.
He was more or less interested In
politics during the reign of Kalakaua
and opposed sta enuously the Gibson
intrigues. He left with his family for
San Diego. he having married on July
16. 1873 a Miss Willfong, sister of the
present tax assessor of Hawaii County,
In San Diego he was engaged in busi-
ness during the next few years. When
the Reform party came into power he
was appointed Hawaiian Consul at that

PARIS, Dec. 12.-The secre-

been expelled from France and
the documents in the Office have

The Roman Catholics are greatly

is little chance of an outbreak,
however, the ecclesiastics having
counseled a passive resistance to
the authorities.

SAN FRANCISCO LETTERS.
Many Arrive at Local Office Without
Stamps

The arrival of numerous letters at the
local post office from San Francisco with
out any postage and the statements made
in various newspapers that the government
Is carrying mail from that city free of
charge have prompted inquiries at the Of
fee of Postmaster General Cortelyou as to
whether an order for free mail from San
Francisco has been issued. 1t was learned
today on the highest authority that no such
order has been issued and that as a mat
ter of fact the law does not give the Post
master General authority to permit the car:
rying of any mail free of charge.
Under the law fiTst-cfass matter inadver-
tently mailed without postage Will be car
ried to Its destination. but before delivery
the recipient must pay q double rate.
Doubtless under a broad construction of
this regulation the San Francisco postal
authorities have been accepting unstamped
matter and transmitting it
Lambert F.. Bergman, assistant superin-
tendent of delivery of the local office, has
been stamping many letters received in this
condition at his own expense.
The early morning mail from the west
brought many more curious letters from
San Francisco. Some were from prominent
men and We're not even inclosed in en-
velopes. These pieces of mail matter are
Being received with no little interest, as GER
