APPROPRIATION ASKED
FOR NEW WHARVES

Owing to the growing commerce of
the port of Honolulu it is considered
necessary by Superintendent of Public
Works Campbell to have another wharf
similar to Alakea street built The
probable cost of this and several other
matters round about the waterfront
which badly need attending to, will run
into about 100000, and it is planned
to ask the new legislature to grant the
appropriation Of this amc0ut.
The trouble about the Alakea wharf
IS that although it is large enough to
accommodate two vessels of the Mon
golla type, trouble commences when it
comes TO a matter of unloading. Abo1t
$500 tons of freight is the capacity of
the wharf 5 storage room, SO that when
the second vessel starts in to take out
stuff there is some sort of muddle.
Other places are also going to ask
fer appropriations to fix up new
wharves with. The legislature is to

ARMY WANTS KING
MANUEL BACK AGAIN

PARIS, December 29.-Advices re-
eeived here from Lisbon state that a
deeply-laid plot to restore the young
Portuguese king, Manuel, to the throne
from which he was lately driven. has
been discovered in Lisbon by the lead
ers Of the Republican government.
Rumors of disaffection IN the army
and navy nave been current in Lisbon
ever since Manuel was deposed and
driven into English exile. The military
is naturally disposed to favor a mon
arehv, inasmuch as it makes assured
the future of the army and navy, while
the socialistic tendency of the republic
leaders is against large standing army
and navy forces. The government,
state the Lisbon advices, doubts the
loyalty of the army and navy.

Fear the Mailed Fist.
The relations between the consul and
the Chinese people are daily becoming
more and more strained, as each sue
ceeding mail from China brings back re
ports of additional charges which the
consul has made against the people here,
until they have come to regard him,
not as their consul. acting for them
with their home government. but as one
spying upon them and reporting only as
to whether or not they have revolution
airy tendencies. Not that the classified
tion of them as revoIutionaries hurts
the local people. but their relatives in
China are selected for vengeance, for
when the official hand of China falls
upon their hapless relations it is with
