TO REDUCE
WAGES, REPORT

| Especial Star-Bulletin Correspondence
HILO, July 11.--As result of the
|. Hawaii planters meeting in Hilo last
| Thursday, there is a we'll grounded
statement going the rounds among the
plantation men that their. salaries are
to be cut twenty per cent on the first
of next month. The action is to be
taken, il is said, on account of a de-
termination of the planters to econ
omize for fear of a reduction of the
tariff and the present low price of
sugar. Talk of the wage cut has al
ready started rumors of a general
strike, if the reduction goes into force
Inquiry among the plantation mama
gers as to the truth of the rumor
meets with sturdy denial or most
|eyasive answer Several of them have
admitted though that economy was one
oftthe things discussed by the planters
at their July meeting
From one plantation comes the in
formation that they have ALREADY been
given slight intimation to expec5 =

duction would be twenty per cent ard

tom. At this plantation when the
skilled workers heard of the proposed
reduction they held an informal meet
ing at which many of them expressed
a determination to throw up their silse,
or in other words to strike, IL the re
duction is made and no action is taken
by the planters to reduce fees low
paid to the Honolulu agencies.
Whether the cut will cause gcner-
al strike among the laborers on The
plantations in case of salary redue-
ton is one of the problems that the
big plantation men knew they must
face. But this is question they refuse
to discuss.

The second precinct club held q

chair. R. ]. Buchly, committeeman
of this precinct, rendered his resigna

do with any move for general coun
ty committee resignation. He expects
to be gone from the city a good deal
during the next few months and
found himself unable to give the time

The club tried for half an hour to
get him to withdraw his resignation
but did not succeed and finally elect
led r. S. Kelly to take his place. A
question came up as to the legality OF
this action but the club wished to
have a representative present at the
meeting of the county committee on
next Friday evening.
In this precinct request was made
that the County committee undertake
carefully-planned educational cam

asked to decide as to the ACCESSIBILITY
of having an entirely new club enroll,

The reader of imagination-and no

to himself the island of Manhattan

| tire population, nearly. tried to leave
| it at once. When only the suburban
dwellers, urged simply by the desire
| for d hot dinner, attempt to return
| home between ) and 6, the ways are
congested enough. Now, stricken
with the fear of death, the human
cattle fought frantically to reach the
| inadequate exits of the great theatre
of tragedy.
There was fighting in the streets,
and panic, and stark rumor OF
course and there was heroism, and
GOODNESS, and the taking of thought
To the little group of men in the top
floor of the Atlas building the roar OF
riot came up like the thunder of the
orchestra before the rise of the cur

fed from danger they did not I'M
derstand. This little group in. the
wireless office realized clearly what
still and frozen dissolution the rising
of the curtain would disclose. They
were not not many; and they did not
know what they were to do, If any

Eldridge was there, looking some

that had employed him. Simmons sat
calmly at his post, and of all the re-
porters Hallowell alone had stood by.
He had faith in Darrow, and he knew
that in the Despatch office a little
handful of men stood in the shadow
of death on the off chance of the big
gest scoop since Noah's flood.
The four solid citizens looked at one
another. The oldest turned to Ell
bridge.
Then your opinion is that the city is
doomed?"
II can offer no other solution, sir,
said the scientist. 1T is at last evil
dent that this mans power over
ethereal vibrations extends to those
forming heat-rays. If this is so, it

tied by the court favorites obtaining
an order to imprison the unfortunate
victims here, and few were those who
ever again saw the sunlight. Thus
the Bastille became the terror of the
people of France.
On this fair morning in July, 1889
rumors of attack by the royal troops
had set the people wild, and armed
with every sort of weapon they
marched upon the impregpable prison.
The garrison within could see them
approach take aim at the loopholes
and fire. One of the garrison was
killed; but when the soldiers fired
the mob fell like grain before the
scythe. Some of the soldiers, sick at
seeing their countrymen murdered,
called upon the governor to surren-
der. The latter, realizing that his
cruelty had made him hated by the
people, determined to die, but to take
the mob into eternity with him.
Selling a torch, he rushed into the
powder magazine. He was caught
just in time by the soldiers, and with
a musket at his head ordered the
d.awbridge lowered.
Then was let loose the hatred that
had been growing in the peoples
hearts for centuries The garrison
was slaughtered and the prisoners
freed. But nothing would do less
than the destruction of the place it.
