Defeated Seattle, Nine to Six
Games In the East.
TACOMA. "Wash.. Aug. 8. The error
column tells the story of today's game.
There was no excuse for Portland's -winning,
except that the Webfooters gave
Engel perfect! support, while Carter had
to play the game hy himself, and was not
equal to the emergency. The .cripples
seemed determined to hand the contest
over to the visitors, and the best they
were able to do was to hobble over In
front of the ball and watch It go by.
For a few minutes In the eighth It
looked good to Tacoma, for though there
-were two out, the bases were full, and
Rafert, who was up, had found Engel
for three good smashes. But Engel struck
him out easily. In the ninth, with a lead
of nine to overcome, something of a bat
ting rally was started, and a set of tfwo
baggers and a single scored two runs.
The next three men appeared foolish In
their atempts to hit Engel.
Carter was wilder today than he has
ever appeared at home, but still he was
not? hit as effectively as Tacoma found
Engel. He allowed Anderson to take a
home run in a bad place, but he had given
the team three chances previously to re
tire the side without a run. Mahaffey's
homer only counted for one run. Lynch
drew four bases In a peculiar play. The
ball went by Glendon in right field, and
was lost In the grass near the fence.
Lynch made the circuit before It was re
covered. The score:
TACOMA.

SELECTION OF A DEFEISDER.
Not en Easy Matter for the Cnp
Race Managers.
NEW YORK, Aug. 8. According to the
Tribune's yachting expert, members of
the New York Yacht Club admit that the
choice. of a yacht to defend the America's
cup is" not becoming easier with a lapse
of time. In 1893, when there was a larger
fleet In the field, the selection was more
quickly made. This year the question be
comes more interesting as the races in-
crease. Mr. Duncan makes no excuse for
the Constitution, and his disappointment
when the boat failed to win the Astor cup
was shared by many members of the
club. He is now giving the Constitution
a epar with a longer masthead, which
will hold the mainsail up to Its work bet
ter, while tending, to keep the upper part
of it from eagglng off. Neither of the
mainsails on this craft has been as prom
ising for windward work as the Colum
bia's, and the gaff swings away much as
It did on Shamrock I. apparently helping
to produce similar results In the leeward
sailing. Still, some yachtsmen are doubt
ful whether the coming alterations will
do much for the boat.
The final decision in the trial races may
be rendered still more difficult by the
entry of the Independence In an Improved
condition. In spite of all the correspond
ence and discussion, a prominent official
of the New York Yacht Club says every
thing is in trim for the transfer of the In
dependence to a member of the club who
Is it friend of Mr. Lawson, and personally
interested in the sailing of the boat. He
adds that the last race of the Independ
ence, when ehe gave the Columbia the
hardest race of her life and finished only
40 seconds behind, decided the matter
with Mr. Lawson.
Mr. Denny, builder of Shamrock II,
speaking at a banquet given at Halifax
by the directors of the Dominion Atlan
tic Railway of Nova Scotia, according to
a special to the Tribune, said:
"I am not betting at all. We were the
builders of the yacht, and every man on
the staff worked hard to make her a
good boat. We would like to lift the cup,
and Sir Thomas Llpton deserves to win,
as many Americans have told me. The
Shamrock I has been much Improved,
and, having beaten her, I think we have
a good chance of beating the American
yacht. At any rate, 1 hope Llpton will
have a good race for his money."
Yachts Tovred to New York.
BRISTOL, R. I.. Aug. S. The southeast
gale abating, the Constitution and Colum
bia, both with housed topmastsf have
been towed to New York. Columbia's
new bowsprit was not shipped here, the
Job having been deferred until later.
While the Constitution Is ready to hoist
sail, there Is nearly a day's work on the
Columbia before she Is ready.

POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y., Aug. 8. About
7000 people were disappointed In the ex

Paced by a running horse and driven by
his owner George H. Ketcham, the cham
pion went his mile In 2:064. He started
shortly after 4 o'clock, after Mr. Ketcham
had driven him three warming heats. On
the trial, the running horse picked him
up near the quarter, which Cresceus made
In 314 seconds. He went the half In 1:03,
to the three-quarters in l:35Vi, and to the
wire In 2:06. There was faint applause
when the time was posted. Mr. Ketcham
said to the Associated Press correspon
dence: 'My horse did the best he could
under the conditions. Neither the track
nor the weather was favorable to record
breaking speed. The former was soft, and
1 was obliged to pick the horse's position
all the way. The time is in no sense a
reflection on my horse's condition, and I
think he will be at his best when he meets
The Abbot at Brighton Beach next Thurs
day." Harness Races at Buffalo.

NO , HAWAIIAN BONDS
GOVERNOR DOLE TURNED DOWN
BY HITCHCOCK.
."Wife of Delegate Wilcox Prohibited
From Giving the Hula Dance
on a Steamship.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 8. It developed
today that the Governor of Hawaii has
twice proposed the issue of bonds to ef
fect needed public improvements. The
Secretary of the Interior on both occas
sions declined to entertain the plan.
Governor Dole first requested on June
4 the approval of the President for a
proposed Issue of an unstated amount of
so-called Hawaiian treasury notes under
act 79 of the provisional Hawaiian Gov
ernment, a part of the civil laws of Ha
waii in 1897. The object was to procure
a temporary loan to replenish the ter
ritorial treasury. Secretary Hitchcock re
plied that the fact that the amount was
neither stated nor estimated was of It
self a sufficient objection. The Governor
had an enclosed opinion of the territorial
attorney-general, which the Secretary, In
his reply declining to take up the plan,
says does not directly express the opin
ion that the proposed indebtedness can
be lawfully incurred under existing laws.
He enclosed a certified copy of act 71, of
the laws of 1896, providing for a loan of
$2,000,000 and statements of the Treasury
showing that there remain unissued bonds
amounting to $799,000 authorized by the
act; that the assessed value of the terri
tory Is $97,094,104. and that the outstand
ing bonded indebtedness, after payment,
will be $940,000.
The Governor then recommended Issu
ance of territorial bonds for $799,000,
chargeable on the general revenues of the
territory, but not on the credit of the
public domain; to be redeemable in not
less than five years, payable In not more
than 15 years from date of Issue, pro
vided that the territorial legislature shall
pass the necessary appropriation bill pro
viding for the expenditures set forth in
section 55 of the territorial act. The Sec
retary of the Interior in his latest reply
says that new legislation Is indispensable
to the bonded Issue, and that the Gover
nor has not indicated that such legisla
tion has been nor can be it safely an
ticipated. The purchase by employes of the Ha
waiian Territorial Government of lots or
other public property at public auction
has called forth a communication from
Secretary Hitchcock to Governor Dole,
in which he says .that even should there
be legal objection to these employes mak
ing such purchases, permitting them to do
so, is a matter of questionable propriety.
In response to an Inquiry from the In
terior Department, Governor Dole has re
ported that in case of exchanges of land
authorized by the laws of Hawaii It has
been his custom to have private par
ties convey the title to such lands to
the territory of Hawaii, and not to the
United States. Secretary Hitchcock, in
reply, has requested that no further con
veyance of this kind be made until further
advised by the department. Governor
Dole has reported to the Interior Depart
ment that the Hawaiian Territory will
adopt the rules and regulations of the
Interior Department In executing its
bonds and contracts In future.
The Interior Department has approved
the opinion of the Attorney-General of
Hawaii, holding that the Covernor of
Hawaii has lawful authority to lease ag
ricultural lands for not exceeding five
years at public auction, to the highest
bidder, notwithstanding that such bid
der is a corporation, owning over 1000
acres of land.
The Governor of Hawaii has requested
this Government to buy Its coffee sup
plies for the Army and Navy from Ha
waiian coffee-growers, suggesting that, it
Is of great Importance that men of small
means, operating In this Industry, should
receive encouragement, either by pros
pective duty or bounty, and that many
without relief will have to leave their
plantations. The War and Navy Depart
ments, to which the request was forward
ed, have replied that the suggestion la
impracticable on the ground that they do
not use that kind of coffee; that the Ha
waiian coffee Is high priced and not of
the required strength for their use.
OBJECTED TO THE HULA DANCE.
Mrs. "Wilcox's Extertnlnment Prohib
ited by a Steamship Captain.
HONOLULU, July 27, via Victoria, B. C,
Aug. 8.-Mrs. Theresa Wilcox, wife of
the Hawaiian Delegate to Congress, ar
rived In Honolulu full of Indignation
against Captain Dowell, of the Oceanic
steamship Zealandla, on which she came
from San Francisco, because the captain
had stopped her from giving a Hawaiian
hula dance in the saloon on the last night
before the vessel reached Honolulu. There
was a young lady on board who was an
adept at the hula business, and when
the vessel was two days away from Hon
olulu, she gave the well-known dance,
Mrs. Wilcox, who was a leading spirit in
the various entertainments throughbut.the
voyage, furnishing the necessary music.
Captain Dowell looked In and saw the
dance, and gave orders that It be not re
peated. The next night preparations were
begun for another performance for the
entertainment of the passengers, when the
quartermaster Interrupted with the cap
tain's order that the hula be dispensed
with. Mrs. Wilcox was highly Indig
nant, and at once sought the captain.
She sent a message to him that she want
ed to see him. Captain Dowell preferred
not to be seen. He was on duty on the
bridge, and did not come down. Mrs.
Wilcox waited at the foot of the bridge
for a long time, and then gave it up. She
threatens to lodge complaint against
Doweirwlth the steamship company.
A Chinese romance, with which the
United States exclusion laws cruelly In
terfered, will end tomorrow with the de
portation of a young girl named Kam
You, on the order of United States Judge
Estee. She arrived here from China three
weeks ago, claiming to be the bride of
one Young Han, a wealthy Honolulu Chi
naman. At the trial of the case, after
she had been arrested for deportation, It
developed that the wedding had been ac
cording to Chinese custom. The bride and
bridegroom had never seen each other,
and when the marriage took place she
was In China and he in Honolulu. After
arriving in Honolulu, Kam You managed
to get an opportunity to marry Han again,
this time in the regular way: but It was
of no avail. Judge Estee decided that the
Chinese marriage had not been completed
and that he must decide the case accord
ing to the statutes, deciding that she was
a single woman when she arrived in Hon
olulu. He Ignored the subsequent mar
riage and ordered the woman deported,
and she was carried shrieking from the
courtroom. Young Han decided to give up
all his interests In Honolulu If necessary,
and take up his home In China with his
bride. '
The ship J. J. Brown, 76 days out from
Newcastle, arrived today In good condi
tion. She had a rough voyage and put
into Tahiti on account of a leak.
The United States transport Thomas,
having on board over 500 school teachers
bound for the Philippines, arrived here
today from San Francisco. She will take
coal here and will probably continue her
Journey August 2.
The San Francisco bark Empire, Cap
tain Knacke, was burned last week off
Mahukona, Hawaii, and Is a total loss.
She arrived at Mahukona on the 24th,
after a voyage of 73 days from Newcastle
with a cargo of coal. On the morning of
the 26th 'it was discovered that the coal
was on fire. After exhausting every effort
to save the vessel, the captain and crew
escaped In their small boats.
Tho sessions of the first Territorial
Legislature came to an end Monday, July
29, when both houses adjourned sine die.
The unpaid bills, on account of which
Acting Governor Cooper extended the spe
cial session called to consider appropria
tions, were provided for In a bill setting
aside money, which Cooper promptly
signed. The Legislature refused to con
sider the matter of a bond Issue, which
was also presented by the acting Gov
ernor for consideration In the extended
session.
No Drawback Allowed.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 8. In the case
of the application of the California &
Hawaii Sugar Refining Company for the
liquidation of certain drawback entries
covering shipments of sugar to Guam, the
Treasury Department has held that while
Guam and Tutulla remain foreign terri
tory,' so far as customs duties are con
cerned, they are not foreign countries
within the meaning of the drawback
laws, as exportatlohs for this, purpose
must be made to countries without the
Jurisdiction of the United States. No
drawback, therefore, can be allowed.

dock's allusions to Germany's alleged de
signs upon the United States, as appear
ing in his article in the current number of
the Naval Institute, of Annapolis. It as
serts that the article "misrepresents the
official view of Washington," Inasmuch as

of Emden harbor, an act interpreted as an
acknowledgment of correct and even
friendly relations between the two powers.

WOODS MADE A MISTAKE.
Likely to Lose His Clnim in the
New Town of Lnwton.
FORT SILL, O. T., Aug. 8. Horace
Speed, United States District Attorney for
Oklahoma, when he heard of the Woods
selection of a quarter section adjoining
the town of Lawton, was quoted as say
ing: "Any good lawyer can defeat Woods If
a contest is instituted. The law contem
plates no such perversion of homestead
rights. If a contest Is Instituted there
can only be one result."
Buildings have already been begun on
the Woods homestead. Persons who have
established themselves In business along
the south border of the town, called Mc
Coy avenue, have received the tip not
to move and to pay no attention to Woods.
He will, it is said, have to Institute legal
proceedings to eject them.
Word has also been received from Wash
ington that Emmett Cox, son-in-law of
Quannah Parker, has Instituted a con
test before the War Department for one
of the quarter sections adjoining the
town site.
The sale of town lots is proceeding so
slowly that McCoy avenue will be an
established business street before the lots
In the main business district are reached
by the auctioneer.
Scheme of Homcscclcers.
LAWTON, O. T., Aug. 8. A movement
has been started here among the home
seekers who lost, to have the Govern
ment openNup the three reserves In the
land lottery which it set aside In the Law
ton district before the opening. These
reserves embrace 532,000 acres, or about
3330 quarter sections. The land was held
in reserve because the Government antic
ipated that the cattlemen who had all of
the Kiowa-Comanche country leased for
pastures Would not be able to find pas
tures In Texas or other cattle-grazing sec
tions readily. If the cattlemen can round
up their cattle and get them to the Gov
ernment reservations this Fall the home
seekers argue, they can find pastures
somewhere else by next Spring. The
homeseekers are willing to buy the land
outright from tho Government.

THE COMMERCE OF JAPAN
INTERESTING REPORT BY CONSUL
GENERAL BELLOWS.
Progress of Work on "Warships Un
der Construction at the Vari
ous Shipyards.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 8. An Interesting
communication has been received at tho
State Department from Consul-General
Bellows, at Yokohama, which covers the
commerce of Japan for 1900, and. aside
from statistics, gives a comprehensive
Insight into conditions In Japan, other
than those of trade.
The year 1900, says Mr. Bellows, was an
unfavorable one to commerce and manu
facture in Japan, but, nevertheless, sta
tistics show an increase in the Interna
tional trade over 1S99 and 1S9S. Japan's
total exports in 1900 aggregated In value
$101,806,137 and 21.9 per cent of this amount
came to the United States, or $26,17S,063
worth. The Imports from the United
States amounted to $31,650,075. making the
entire volume of trade between the two
countries nearly $57,500,000. The United
States takes each year three-fourths of
Japan's tea, nearly all her floor mat
tings, and more than half her raw silk,
and leads as a purchaser In many other
lines. On the other hand, Japan gets
nearly one-half of her raw cotton from
the United States and most of her loco
motives and other machinery, leather,
kerosene and other oils and flour.
Mr. Bellows 6ays that constantly filled
electric cars traverse the streets of Kyoto,
but are, in fact, so crowded by the work
ing classes that the wealthier people
still employ the picturesque jlnrlkisha,
pending better accommodations. Electric
lines have been projected at Tokio and
lokohama, but work has not been begun.
One of the most hopeful features of tho
situation In Japan, says the Consul-General,
Is the recognition by her educated
classes of the fact that cheap labor can
not compete with machinery. The agita
tion of questions of policy with regard to
labor, machinery and foreign capital la
expected to bring a little beneficial change
in the near future.
The imports of sugar Into Japan, which
fell off considerably in 1S99, have in
creased again to nearly the amount for
1S9S. when the Philippine Islands were an
Important source of supply, and Mr. Bel
lows states that when these islands are
pacified the rehabilitation of the sugar
trade with the archipelago is hoped for.
Mr. Bellows deplores the lack of a
single American bank In Japan, and says
that an American bank, with good connec
tions in New York and San Francisco,
skillfully managed, should prove a paying
Investment and would materially aid in
extending our commerce In the East.
Mr. Bellows Is quite sanguine as to tho
financial condlMon of the country and
says that, although the commercial Im
ports have exceeded exports for the past
five years, the general result of the move
ment of specie during that time has been
to Increase the country's supply.
As to the new treaties which have now
been In force for nearly two years. Mr.
Bellows says that they have proved gen
erally satisfactory and very little com
plaint as to their provisions hns arisen.

Progress Being Made at the Various
Shipyards.
WASHINGTON, Aug. S. The Navy Bu
reau of Construction made public today its
monthly statement showing the progress
of work on vessels under construction for
the Navy up to August 1. Of the big battle-ships,

ships still remain at zero.
The armored cruiser Colorado, at
Cramp's, advanced 1 per cent to 3 per cent
during the month, while the other fivo
vessels of this class failed to register 1
per cent in their construction as yet. The
protected cruiser Des Moines made tho
greatest advance of the vessels of her
class, Jumping from 33 to 45 per cent. Tho
Cleveland advanced 3 per cent to 61 per

Subsidy for Fruit Shippers.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 8. Mr. Trace
well, the Controller of the Treasury, In
a letter to the Secretary of Agriculture,
has held that the Agricultural Depart
ment, as suggested, may enter into co
operative arrangements with dealers anJ
exporters of fruit, whereby the depart
ment shall guarantee to them a definite
minimum net return per package on fruit
picked, packed, shipped and sold under
the direction of the Pomologlst of tho
department through the ordinary chan
nels of trade. The purpose of the depart
ment is to investigate the foreign mar
ket conditions with a view to Increasing
the sale of American fruits in the mar
kets of Europe. Under the proposed ar
rangments the exporter would receive
the net proceeds of sales, that Is, all
the proceeds, after deducting freight and
other charges.
If, however, the net return should bo
less' than the guaranteed amount, the
difference between the net proceeds ac
tually realized and the guaranteed re
turn would be paid the exporter out of
the appropriation for "pomologlcal in
vestigations." Conference of Approiser.
NEW YORK, Aug. S. Today, at the
meeting of the appraisers of the principal
ports of the country, will b" considered
the silk division, and probably the cot
ton and linen divisions. Already these ap
praisers have considered and compared
the first division, which Includes personal
baggage and household effects, hides and
skins, lumber, paper stock and a number
of miscellaneous items, and the second
division, which is the art department, a
good deal of time being spent on the
lithograph prints, concerning which the
Board of United States General Apprais
ers have given peveral decisions of late.
The special object of these conferences is
to obtain uniformity of classification.
