The fast p.iK:ie time from Chic iro to .Svi Fmm'i-co will not be changed, but ilie fast pns euger time from San Francisco to Chicago -will be lengthened by six and one half hours. The fast mail time both ways will remain the same. Tne change is consequent on the gov ernment's demand for mail cars on the fast eastern part of the line, and the necessity of relieving the mail train of its paengor load over a por tion or the route. The fast mail will leave San Fran cisco with the p;issengers as at pres ent, but at Green Kiver, Wyoming territory, the cast-bound mails and passengers over the Oregon Short line are received. nc man ana pas senger cars will be separated and the mail train will run to Chicago on the present schedule. The passenger traiu from there eastward will ar rive at Council Bluffs five hours later than st does now and in Chicago, six and one-half hours later. Atmtrallan Commerce San Fit s cisc o, Feb. 22. The week ly California circular .states that last mail reiorts from Australia only show one vessel on berth in Newcastle load ing for this port. This is almost un precedented here. Already there is an advance of fully f0 cents per ton on sjot cargoes of Australian. The arrivals this week are considerably less than the actual consumption.

TIIK II IWAII.IN KMXTIOY A Small Majority Tor the Itcform Part. Sax Francisco, Feb. 22. The steamer Australia brings almost complete re turns or the election for nobles and representative's held in the Hawaiian kingdom, February oth. Returns received here by steamer a week ago, led to a belief that the opposition or national reform party had gained a sweeping victory, but present advices, which iuclude returns from all but two districts, show that the success of the national reform party was confined principally to tho island of Oahu, on which Honolulu is situated, and later returns indicate that the reform party will have a small majority in the next legislature. Returns so far received give the re form party thirteen members in the liouse of nobles, the national reform or opposition ten members and inde pendent one. Iu the house of repre sentatives the reform party elected twelve members and the national re form ten members. The Honolulu Adcerther concedes that the remaining seats in the house or representatives will be held by the national reformers thus making the parties a tie in that house and giving the reform party a slight majority in the honse of nobles.

Tovne, or the Central Pa cific Railwav: San Franclsco, Cal., Feb. 22. The last passenger train but one that went up the mountain on the Central Pa cific required eighteen of our most powerful locomotives and a push plow to get over, and even with this power it got stalled near Emigrant Gap, this was the last trip possible to make with the push plow after that it had to depend upon pow er plows to throw the snow out of the deep cuts. If the storm continues 21 hours longer it will be impossible to Icccp the line open with any power. COMiAt'SE OF A CHEAT CN!,. A Cijihir Pirture rKniiHw Hum sil ifMI:ltioil Aiioat A;iinw.-tll. United States consul Yirquair, sta tioned at Aspinwall, in his last official report to the state department, gives a striking picture of the present con dition of affairs along the line of the Panama canal. The decadence of Colon (Aspinwall) and the almost en lire prostration of all business at that place since the collapse of the canal becomes more and more apparent. It very often happens that not a solitary vessel is to be found in the harbor, a thing that was never known there, even previous to 1SS0 and after 1SG0: and yet it is but a short while ago since vessels were obliged to be anchored out for days in wailing for dock room at which to unload tlscir respective cargoes. The local traffic of the isthmus dur ing the time that work was being pushed on the canal had reached vast proportions. The line of the canal, between Colon and Panama, about fifty miles, was a vast bivouac, where the most energetic of all nationalities and races had congregated to amass wealth, and many have done so, es pecially among the Chinese portion of it. Wages were high, princely sal aries were paid, money was made easy and expended most freely. Day time was not eneugh: the nights them selves were turned iuto day, and lit- erallv speaking, the twenty-four hours of the dav were a constant draft on various industries. The expression tho most fiting is, "it w;is Bedlam let loose," and people can not have any idea of what the isthmus was in lST), 18SG, 1SS7 and part of 18SS, unless they have seen it. Forty towns have sprung up on the line in almost as many miles, every one of them thriving, a real beehive of people; in fact, all or them bent, not only at changing the physical aspect of the land, but in turning a tropical jungle oi heretofore a death dealing clime into a new Babylon, for never was there such a confusion or tongues and a conglomeration of races from all over the world. These peo ple were fighting back the diseases manfully, dying at once without a murmur, or living in spite of clime, lives of the most reckless dissipation when at leisure. It is not a wonder that so many died; it is a won der that so many have lived. Indeed, it can be very truth fully said, that "grim death got ex hausted at the task' and retreated to his lair. The isthmus had become habitable; before the advent of this reckless throng it was not. And what has become of it all? Vanished. The people have all gone, business is dead on the line, the local traffic is dead, the line of the canal, once only a short while ago the liveliest place on the globe, Ls dead; the rank vegetation of the tropics is growing denser, it seems, for the rest it has had, hiding from view railroad trains, dredges. and all paraphernalia of the canal contractors, who left their implements of all sorts as if work were to have been resumed in the morning. Colon and Panama still live, but that is all, merely by-way stations for the traffic across the isthmus eastward and westward between two hemis pheres. In Colon rents have fallen off 50 per cent in three months, and are still on the decline. Tho Panama railroad, which in 1S88 paid 23.50 per cent of dividends, will in 1880 pay only 0 per cent This line in 1888 carried 1,300,000 passengers (4,000 per day); this year it may carry probably 500.000, it so many. But the transit traffic has not suf fered; on the contrary, it is only the local traffic, which in a short six months has suffered a loss of nearly 110,000 tons of imports that is to say, this much has been lost to the local trade. As a result nearly two-thirds of the business houses iu Colon are closed up and bankrupt sales are a dailv occurence. Children Cry for Pitcher's Castoria (Vhea Baby was sick, tro gavo her Castoria.

HMitiMion Makes Porclases of Coal Lands. .i rj:i:r i:xtj;xsj rj-: schi:mi: Sax Francisco, Feb. 22. The re port that C. P. Huntington is negoti ating with Henry Villard, president of the Northern Pacific Railroad com pany, for the purchase of coal lauds in the state of Washington, is rn firmedbvn prominent Southern Pa cific official who says that I'm negoti ations for the purchase of immense tracts of the most valuable coal lands discovered in the Paget Sound coun try, have progressed favorably ami the trade will soon br consummated. It is understood that the scheme contemplates the investment by the Southern Pacific Co., or an amount reaching into the millions. The negotiations include not only the purchase of thoe large coal field, but the building of roads connecting them with tide water at a point not vet announced. Whether the road will be built by the Northern Pacific or the Southern Pacific Railroad company, is one or the problems of the situation at pres ent Another feature of the scheme will be the establishment of a line of colliers between the terminus of the road from the coal fields and San Francisco.

John Jacob Astor died this morning of heart fail ure. Mr. Astor complained yesterday morning of feeling unwell, but in the evening went out to dinner.

Mr. Astor continued to sink slowly until four o'clock this morning, when he died. There were at his deathbed William Waldorf Astor and a couple of other relatives. John Jacob Astor was the eldest son of the late William Astor and grandson of the origninal John Jacob Astor who founded the fortunes of the family. He was the head of the third generation of the Astor family. Ho was born sixty-five years ago. In lo7o lus father died leaving him a two thirds share of an estate valued at S200,000,000.
