of Port Costa, or of five hours at most
by way of Stockton and Livermore.
Was the Livermore Company in the
scope of the disturbance, too, and was
Stockton? Was Port Costa under
water7
These and thousand other ques-
lions the people of Honolulu, closely
drawn to San Francisco by ties that
reach into every household here, asked
themselves. A cablegram sent to Port
land, Oregon, early in the day, receiv-
ed no answer. Portland, was cut off
from San Francisco, too.
The Advertiser, last night, sent a
cablegram around the world to Los
Angeles asking for news and another
to New York. 1t does not seem pos
sible that the entire California coast
is involved in the disaster. That
would have created seismic dis
turbance that would have been felt
here. AS it was, there was some slight
tidal disorder observed in Honolulu at
about ten o'clock yesterday morning,
but it was very slight.
And, in the meantime, the whole

To Governor Pardee, Sacramento;
Hawaii sympathizes with California
in the great loss of lives and property
at San Francisco with whose citizens
we are so closely allied by ties of blood
/ friendship and business. ATKINSON,
Acting Governor of Hawaii
Mateo, Palo Alto, Redwood City,
would all feel something of this ire
mendous driving back of the waters
The water is very deep between San
Francisco and Goat Island, now called
Yerba Buena, and it is possible that this
| island, standing like a stone dam in
the middle of the bay, stopped or
checked the landslide. The water that
had then been forced back upon the
low lands about the bay, and particu-
larly upon the low lands of Oakland
and Alameda, which would feel the
worst of this effect, would then rush
back toward San Francisco again, this
backward rush accounting for the
water that is said to have come up into
Market street.
AS the water "once came to Mont
gomery street, the water would but
be taking its own again. And if Oak
IetIu anu tuO tOHuS III inc Ddy regions
were flooded, if only for a little time,
that would account for the fact of tho
prostration of all the land wires, and
for the failure of New York to get
into communication with San Francisco
by way of Oakland. If OalSand were
in the throes of disaster of that kind,
there would be small time and less in
clination to repair telegraph lines.
Communication, if it is to be restored,
must be established by sending special
trains from Sacramento or Los Angeles
to the scene of the disaster-if, indeed,
those cities have not likewise been in
volved in the common ruin. In Homo
lulu yesterday nothing was known as to
the details of the calamity, aud the
most frightful rumers took shape.

CUT OFF FROM
ALL THE WORLD

Perhaps the most terrifying feature
of the disaster, to people in Honolulu,
was the knowledge that San Francisco
and the country around there seemed
to have been cut off from telegraphic
communication with all the world from
the moments Immediately following the
first receipt here of the news of the

in the cities across the bay and about
it comprises thousand square miles.
Most of these would have been asleep
in their homes at the time of the
disaster, or the housewives would have
been getting breakfast and the men,
mostly of the laboring class or clerks
getting ready to go to their work. The
little children would have been asleep
in their beds. Only God could see
and pity them at such a moment.

Saragusa, who admits that he struck
the blow which killed Isaac, was the

self-defense. It is expected that be-

Mahnomen, MINI. July 20.-1t is
not alone the Indians of the White

and cheated out Of their lands and
holdings, but many white men are also
their dealings on the reservation. Some
of the very men who are trying to
"do'' the Indians, are likely to find

are posing as mixed bloods and Offering
their lands for sale or security. No

asked to show evidence, the fullblood

old inhabitant, long since dead, and
solutely that the Indian is mixed

friends as high as $50 for this evidence.
When the case is investigated it is
found that this testimony is all man
ufactured and the nativity Of the seller
is purely Chippewa.
Several fullbloods have either sold
or mortgaged their land and many more
are now negotiating. At Mahnomen
alone there have beeen not less than
twenty instances where. fullbloods have
loan upon it. In fact, it is very diff
cult to find any Indians here who will
admit that they are fullbloods and In
competent to sell or mortgage land.
Some Of the land has been bought
by spectators and agents, who will no
doubt put it on the market for prospec-
tive buyers. Titles ara being patched
up by means Of affidavits or persons
who are purported to know the allot-

does not, however, help the matter, for
all the affidavits possible cannot ma lie
