States felt disposed to reopen dis
cussions which Mr.. Polk peremptor-
lily had closed, Great Britain might
be able to listen to a compromise
on the line of the forty-ninth paral-
lei. This compromise had three
times been offered her by diplom-

administrations. Great Britain
stated that in view of her deep and
abiding love of peace and her deep
and abiding admiration for Ameri-
ca, she would accept the forty
ninth parallel; provided she might
have free navigation rights upon
the Columbia. In fact, this was
precisely the memorandum of

Oregon between Great Britain and
the United States.

RESUMES
MAIDEN
NAME

A lady calling herself Spanish, who
is apparently part Porto Rican, was
on the stand in Judge Robinson's court
this morning in a horrible case in
which she testified, seeking divorce
from her husband, Lang, that he took
advantage of the fact that he had
married her and that he endeavored
to lead her into wrong that she would
not tolerate.
Leon Straus represented Lang, a
barkeeper, and Judge Weaver repre-
sented the woman.
The latter waived costs of court
alimony and attorneys fees, saying
all such had been settled, or would be
settled out of court.
Straus wanted to know If the wo
man had not been intimate with the
barkeeper several months before mar
riage but such questions was ruled out
Judge Robinson holding that what
might have been privilege before
marriage may have been considered
by the husband as right after the
ceremony.
The Judge declared the bonds OF
matrimony dissolved, the evidence
certainly supporting the decision pro
viding the explicit testimony of the
woman was true. Her words led to
but one conclusion and that was that
the man, if the woman told the truth
had been peculiarly brutal, he having

The British barkentine Helga, Cap
tain Wall, bound from Newcastle, Aus
tralia, for San Francisco with cargo
of COAL went ashore off Waikiki at
one forty-five this morning and will
probably become a total loss before
the day is over as she is fast breaking
up.
For one hundred and twenty three
days the vessel has met with mis-
fortune which finally ended with her
piling up this morning inside the reef
off John Cassidy's place at Waikiki.
One day out of Newcastle a terrible
gale was encountered which threw
the vessel on her beam ends causing
a leak which has never been stopped.
The donkey engine that was not fit
for use according to the crew who
have been watching it for over hun.
dred days broke down so that hand
pumps were necessary to save the
ship from going down at sea with
all hands.
According to the crew which is an
unusually intelligent collection of
men, the treatment and food they have
received during the entire trip is of
such a nature as to warrant the cap
tain being severely punished by the
English Board of Trade when the mat
ter is reported to them officially.
Brackish water, decayed bread and
biscuit sour lime juice, stale and rot.
ten pork and meat, foul coffee and
spoiled sugar are only few of the
things that the captain will have tC
answer for, say the men.
Chief officer Royle who was taken
sick about sixty days ouJ Of Newcastle
has been allowed to starve, while the
captain and his family have been liv
ing on the best food that could be OBJ
tanned from the ships stores, the al
Legations assert.

TOO MUCH RUBBISH

Whether U. S. Internal Revenu
Collector Walter F. Drake moves from
the basement of the Territorial capt
tol or not is still an open question.
1t develops that while the aforesaid
capitol is crowded in regard to rooms
being occupied, it is also evident that
many of the rooms in that historic
pile are uselessly occupied.
Downstairs there are several rooms
taken up with nothing but rubbish,
three or four rooms being full of
things that should be either in the
archives building or should be destroy
ed as trash.
Also there is the throne room, or
Hall of Representatives, witch will
not be used until Februar' next, which
might be used by tie United States
photographers and Copographers for

whose Temporary convenience the pub.
lie works would oust Drake and his
bureau.
Likewise the Senate chamber is not
being used for anything except dust
and memories.
Also the bungalow has room to
spare, there being there several idle
billiard tables which would make good
draftsmans tables 1or the surveyors,
without disturbing Colonel Jones pri-

room only for his desk and a hook
upon which to hang his sword.

badly cooked and many times the men
were obliged to go hungry for days at
time, is further accusation.
The water supply which gave out
yesterday was of such 5rackish ma
ture as to be unfit for drinking.
On several occasions the crew went
aft to complain to the captain about
the food and the treatment of the
mate, but were told that they would
get a dose of lead if they did not go
back to their work and mind their
own business.
Eleven days ago the boiler broke
down which made it necessary for the
men to work on the hand pumps. The
water in the hold at that time mea-
sured five feet. and if it had not been
for the carpenter, the ship would pro-
badly have gone down with all hands
as the men were too weak from the
lack of food to properly man the
pumps.
During the entire passage some of
the crew were laid up with sickness
caused by the lack of proper food. At
one time three of the crew were in
their hunks when they were routed
out by the captain who told them that
they either had to work or he would
stop their food allowance.
Captain Wall with all hands with
the exception of Mate Royle, were on
deck this morning when the Helga
struck the reef.
Diamond Head lighthouse was mis-
taken for Makapuu light, the result
being that the ship was brought too
close in. AS soon as Captain Wall
discovered his mistake, he attempted
to get to the open sea, but the wind
failed and the Helga drifted on the
reef.
AS soon as the ship struck soundings
were taken, which showed eighteen
feet forward and thirty feet aft.
Rockets were sent up before the
ship struck but they were not seen
until tco late by those on watch at the
Charles Hegstrom, one of the crew
was painfully injured on the hands and
! legs, by one of the signal bombs ex
ploding. The force of the explosion
was so great as to splinter the sky
li~It over the cabin.
Mate Royle came on deck in spite oil
his condition as soon as the ship hao
struck and ordered the boats made
ready for immediate launching in
spite of the contrary orders given by
the captain and second mate Bias.
Every effort was made by the crew
to save the Ship, but shortly after she
struck it was seen that nothing cOulj
be done as she was taking water
rapidly and already starting to breal
up.
At daybreak this morning the tug
Intrepid and the Inter Island steamer
! Noeau were sent out to lend assist
ance but 1t was soon found that theil
services were not needed According
to the crew the Helga was supposed
to have been insured with Lloyds, al
though her certificate of register ex
pired some time in June.
The Helga was built in 1896, an(
was two-thirds owned by Captain
Wall. This is the fourth accident she
has met with since her appearance
on the high seas as a merchantmen
She was formerly called the Fortuna
but her name was changed few years
