FOURTH ft HONOLULU Minister Willis, Improves Op portunity of His Life. JOSEPH COOK CALLED DOWN Willis Rebukes Attack on Cleyeland Tacoma Firm Secures Order for Japanese Army. Victoria, July 13. The steamship MlO' wora arrived from Australia amd Hawaii this afternoon. The literary exercises at Honolulu on July 4th wera the scene of a remarkable incident, Joseph. Cook, of Boston, was Invited to speak and n tered upon a personal criticism of Prea Ident Cleveland, charging him with mis representing Hawaii and) Hasvallai af fairs. He was interrupted by Ministtr Willis, who presided, and after a sharp cross-fire of charge and retort, Cook left the ball amidst silence, HTs action is looked upon as Indiscreet. In opening the meeting Mr. Willis grace fully gave utterance to patriotic senti meats and was applauded. In quite com' pllmentary terms Mr.. Vuils presented Joseph Cook, who was on the program for an address. Mr. Cook bad chosen for his subject "The Republics of the Tropica" He said nothing of the Fourth of July. He repeated that when the crown fell it was pulverized. H9 con gr&tula'ted all that there was no' color line or slavery line here. The speaker then .went into a dissertation on the "Southern Republics," as upheld by what "they call Northern principles." Coming quickly to Hawaii, Mr. Cook entered up on an almost direct criticism of the Celeveland administration, arraigning it for misrepresentation and saying that he would make some corrections. Here Mr, Willis protested on the ground that the occasion was not o-ne for a political speech. He was greeted with a storm of applauBe. Mr. Cook, considearbly con- fused, asked for. a list of particulars and declared that toe was not accustomed to A otralght jacket or & gag. Mr. Willis replied that the contracted sentiment from Boston environment was not broad enough for an American celebration In Hawaii. Mr. Cook said that Boston had a good deal to do with, achieving Amer! can Independence, Mr. Willis said this was granted and that all were proud of it. The lecturer quickly concluded his address with a few remarks on annexa tion. He bade good bye to Minister Willis and left the hall amid silence, clearly mad through and through. The exchange of words created tre mendous excitement. The Star editorially says that the Amer lean minister found the opportunity of his life time at the Fourth of July meet Ing which he conducted and won golden cpinlons for himself. (Mr. Willis was on all sides commended for his patriotism, courage and calmntss. The oration of the day was delivered by President Dole and was full of the rin'j of patriotism and Americanism. One eentlmiat was: This is a great day, a day set apart for more .noble purposes than twisting the British lion's tall or making the eagle scream. It is a day of thanksgiving. It is a memorial day, Its chief end Is to keep wirmth in. our hearts aiod teach our children and our children's children the lova of our insti tutlons and of our government, for which our lathers died. Mr. Dole was congratulated by scores after-the exercises. Fifty of the rebel prisoners, all na-.lves, were pardoned on the Fourth by President Dole. None of the ring leaders were glvea their free dom. Their sentences were commuted, s follows: Sentence of W. H. C. Greig is commuted from twetty ytars to fif teen years; T. B. Walker, thirty to fifteen years; Carl WldeJann, thirty to fifteen years; Louis MarshaJi, twenty to fifteen years; W. H. Seward, thirty to twenty J'urs; R. W. Wolfcox, W. H. RIckard and v.. T. Qullck, each thirty to twenty years. The fine of JIO.OOO in each of th? a'jove cases was not remitted. CYCLONE IN NEW. YORK. Lives Lost ond Much Property Destroyed. New York, July 13. The first cvclone In many years struck New York today and resulted fatally In one Instance be a.des wrecking a large amount of prop erty. The cyclone descended upon the upper part of Bast New York, continued on as way to the lower plains in the 1 land, and from there travelled to Wood haves. The cloud was flrat seen going over Cypress Hill. It was funnel, shaped and hung very low to the eround. the upper end was a red euot that ar- peared more like an incand. scent Heht than anything else. The cyclone swept over the city cemetery, wrecking hind some and costly monuments. Right In the middle of the wreekagi, six ears of the Brooklyn and Suburban Railway were struck. The cars were filled wi r-ith passengers and half a dozen were trred. In- The cyctone wrecked thirty houses at Woodhavea and a very large school house. There were twenty residents Woodhaven struck fcy various objects which wera carried throught the air. Chimneys sailed through space as though they were no heavier than feathers. At Woodhavea a woman was sick in bed. The house was picked up and carried more than a block. Finally the woman was landed on one side ot the street and the house on the ether. The woman had a miraculous escape. Mrs. Elisabeth Kotreauouln,' of ThU3 avenue, near Rockawuy, was killed. She stood in the doorway of her home when a flying beam struck her on the head crushing in her skull. PORTLAND BICLCLE MEET. Portland, Julyl3.

The Financier iys this week: The statement of the Asso ciated Banks of this city, for the week ending July 13, Is the first in weeks to show a contraction in loans, the net de- crease being $2,516,700. The aggregate vol ume, however, Is a til far above the aver age. One year ago loans were declining regularly week toy week, while deposits were piling1 up steadily. Loans were then nearly $100,000,000 less than deposits the difference now is but $06,000,000; in other words, loans were then over $28,000,- 000 less than at present and deposits wer over $22,000,000 higher than the amounts i.oiw held by the New York banks. A vtry cheering sign, even though it may be due to temporary causes, Is the stop ping of the movement of money from the interior to this point. SUIT TO (BE RUSHED. San Francisco, July 13.

Good Progress Made on West ' Side of Bay. INVINCIBLE " "THREE" LEADERS Subsidy and Twenty-one Committees Join Personally iu Placing; the Matter Before the People. The subsidy committee, headed by Chairman WCngate and his right of way team, returned from the west side last night at a late hour covered with, glory and well tired out by their two days' work. It Is a most satisfactory report which they have, to make and is another link In the chain of evidence of the success ful methods and invincible means em ployed by these gentlemen la presenting the truth at the railroad situation and securing the aid and support of the peo ple, many of whom were erstwhile ene mies. Their unprecedented! success la only another illustration that honesty is the best policy. , In all of their work these gentlemen have pursued but the cue policy. Whatever they have prom ised any ot the' donors of subsidy or right of -way has been faithfully per formed and they have never promised what they knew would not or could not be done. Mr. D. M. Stuart of the committee de serves special credit for his energetic and skillful work. Possessing a knack ot approaching people in the right spirit, an exceptionally good Judge of human rature and one who Inspires confidence in these with whom he talks, he seldom loses any one whom he goes after (or a trade; Mr. Wingate, possessed of much the same qualifications, added to an In exhaustible fund of stories, which are always appreciated by the ladles of a , house, while Mr. Hope Ferguson, with ' his knowledge or land technicalities and. large acquaintance, make up a trio hard to beat. It Is easy to see the wisdom of the committee In detailing these gen tlemen to conduct the hard work which fell to their lot. All of the west side property) owners approached by the committee on this trip have handed In their deeds. They Include almost all of the large owners and the others will no doubt fall' in line as soon as they can be seen. Two more deeds were taken, Saturday and all on the west side seem to be very happy over the prospect of the connection ot their territory by rail with Astoriai and the rest of the world. More or less Isolated, Clatsop Plains, Is looking for ward to the time when she can reach her markets quickly, regularly and at the lowest coat. One and all see the oppor tunity to be embraced, and it Is thought by those In a position to know that they w;H make no delay in closing contracts. A number of deeds are still to come and all should assist the committee in having them executed within the shortest possible time. The same policy, so suc cessfully pursued up to the present; the unity of all interests and the elimination of every idea, except the one paramount requirement of the present time, will in sure construction in ai few days. It is believed that this fact is now being thoroughly Imbued in the minds of the people and the thorough and careful work of the committee is already show ing the best results. The active cam- paigm inaugurated and personally con ducted by members of the subsidy com mittee, committee of twenty-one and lead by the Invincible three will be pushed to a rapid conclusion. , iMr. Hammond will return today or to morrow and it Is more than likely that his patience wltt not ba much- longer taxed in waiting for the completion ot the subsidy contracts. t PORTLAND RACES CLOSED.

' Robert Steel, of the Lucktamute, spent the Fourth of July la CorvaWs, says the Times. He is the Polk county farmer who grew the phenomenal crop of over 4,000 bushels of barley on thirty acres of ground, more than 133 bushels to the acre. . The field; was formerly a huge pond, which was drained by Mr. Steel with a ditch to the Luckiamute, In a big bead of which river it lies. It has pro duced six crops of barley and the lowest average of any season was 60 bushels per acre. In harvesting the big crop of last year two weeks were required in cutting it with binder drawn by five horses, and after the grain was cut the shocks so nearly covered the entire ground that the wagons in hauling it could not pass between them. The mar ket value of last year's yield from 80 acres wae about $1,600. The crop of brew ing barley on the field this year promises well, and will be much benefited by the rains on the 4th and 6th, Oregon City is evidently having about as much of the insurance fight as As toria. The Enterprise save: "The in surance war For the past ten days or two weeks the insurance war has been on In dead earnest in Oregon City, and rates (have been slashed right and left. In one Instance .the rate was cut 76 8-3 per cent, but the usual rate of discount was fifty per cent. The cut rates was Inaugurated by the special agent of the Phoenix and Home Insurance companies, and the agents of the other companies were Instructed to meet the reductions in a great measure. The result is in surance aents are very busy cancelling and renewing policies, .arranging rebates and writing new insurance.. It "Is not expected that the present rates wilt con tinue long, end the cut-rate slashing is likely to end any day. Although rates will probably never be as high again es they have been In the past." The creamery at Barlow, says the Ob server, has been a surprise to the farm ers of that vicinity who believed that there was nothing to be gained by the establishment of such am institution, and that they could make as much money from butter the old way as they could by selling milk to the creamery. Some experiments proved' that they could make a pound of butter from about 85 pounds of milk, while the creamery made the same amount of butter from 20 pounds of the same milk, or more than a roll extra from 100 pounds of milk, which at selling price was at least 85 cents. This was a gain of over 10 cents per hundred; provided the creamery Is run on the plan of other creameries and the farmer would have his skim milk returned to him. That little difference would almost keep a family where there are over halt a dozen cows milked, . It Is only a few years since that alfalfa was introduced and became a factor In the hay product of Crook county, says the Prlnevllle Review. The cold backward spring seasons and rigorous winters of this locality caused its success as a for age plans to be looked upon wlthi sus picion. Yet Gradually It wended its way southward from the war lands along the John Day river, until ft Is now grown In divers places throughout the . county. Generally speaking1, irrigation is essential to its successful growth, yet in many places a good yield la obtained! without the aid of artificial moisture. Having been tried In almost every locality in the county, It is now generally admitted to be the coming crop ot this section of the state. "Mrs. J. E. Redmond, who lives with her husband on the old M'rikey place, about three miles this side of Olex," ays the Fossil Journal, "took strychnine on the morning of the Fourth, about 8 o'clock, and died a few minutes later, after informing her husband that she had taken the poison. She said the day be fore that she expected to die on the 17th anniversary of her marriage, which took place on July 4, the day she dred. She had been consumptive for several years, and few th-:re are who will be found to blame her for putting en end to her suffering when she became assured that no other means could save her from a lingering death. Mrs. Redmond was a highly respected lady." IMr. J. P. Pearson, the well known dairy and creamery man who has hud charge of the Auburn creamery for the piast two years, has accepted a like position to the large creamery at Coos Bay.
