done wholly by bucket brigade.

we're about 800 bushels of oats and
about the same amount Of corn.

tor were both insured but the
amounts will not cover the loss bv
several thousand dollars.

status is Just the same as before.
He expects. however. that the pro-
visional government now said 10 be

his position here or appoint another
man TO take his place. He does not
believe it will be the latter.
AS yice-consul Dr. Marques expects
to send to Russia some time in May
or June a party OF about go Russians
who wish to go back home at the ex-
pense OF their native government
This number pstitioned some time
ago for the transpol tation which has
not yet arrived. 1t will cost about
$4,000.
The consul SAYS that the change in
Russia has not created an especial de-
sire TO return to the country 50 far
as he had been able to notice from the
number Of applications handed to him
for the free transportation. He has
received no applications since the rev.
oluticn occurred. ~
Relative 70 the Russian incident
some time ago in Honolulu when some
Russians were tempo: arily put in
irons by the local police and Of
which there was q fepoffof a Russian
government Investigation, DR.
Marques has heard nothing. he says.
