Thoro was a special ineoting of tho Board of Health on Saturday afternoon to tnko action on the outbreak of diphtheria. Thoro wero present W. O. Smith, T. F. Lansing, D. Koliipio and Dr. 'Wood, members; also Drs. How ard, Alvarez and Raymond, oxo cutivo officor Reynolds and clerk Wilcox. Attorney - General Smith said tho mooting was called' to tako somo action with regard to the provalenco of dipb.tb.oria. Dr. Howard had roportcd to him an other case of the diseaso, a Japa nese child at Moiliili, near tho quarry. Dr. Howard had been th ore threo times, much against tho objection of tho parents who claimed tho government physician hncl no business thoro. Ho had takon a spocimon of tho mucous from tho child's throat which had beon examined and developed by Dr. Alvarez, who found tho bacil lus of diphtheria. Went again Friday with two Japanese physi cians. Found tho child had coughed up portions of mem brane which had been destroyed. Told tho physicians thoro would be no interference with them if they followed tho regulations of the Board of Health. Dr. Alvarez said bo was satis iied it was a caso of diphthoria. Dr. Howard reported another caso on Queen streot. The child wqb not vory sick but tho falsa membrano was viuiblo ull over tho throat. Sauitary condition of tho houso waB good, aB was also that of the other houso nt tho quarry. Mr. Smith How loug is tho case to bo segregated ? Dr. Howard Several clays, tho poriod of incubation is 8 days. Dr. Wood Say 1 to 12 days. Mr. Smith How about tho strictness of tho quarantino ? Dr. Wood I would keep peo ple out of the sick rooms. It is necessary to warn every one not to go near tho sick child. The bacillus of diphtheria will last for months. Peoplo who would not obey instructions nud persist in goiug near patients should be put in quarantino. Mr. Smith To what do you aseribo tho causo of these out break ? Dr. Wood To tho presonco in tho city of the diphtheria bacillus, most probably brought hero from San Irouoisoo. Thoro is plenty of it there. Mr. Smith What action shall wo tako in regard to quarantin ing ? Dr. Howard I would leave tho matter to tho discretion of the executive oflicors. Ou motion Dr. Howard and Executivo Ollicer Reynolds wero empowered to ouforco such qunr autiuo regulations aB thoy may deem best. If the parties havo competent physiuiaus iu atten dance thoro is to bo no Govern ment intorforeuce. If tho instruc tions givou are not followed strict ly thou tho pluco is to bo quurau tined. Dr. Wood suggested calling all tho physicians in tho city together. Ho cited the case of a child on Emma streot which he had heard of and wont to investigate Ho found two competent physioiaus in charge. Tho child's throat had been cauterized but the patiout had died. Ho had tho child's larynx takon out and given to Dr. Alvarez, who found the diphthoria bacillus in cultures made from it. It waB undoubt edly a caso of that diseaso. Tho physicians wore both com potout white men ami had good counsol with others ovor tho caso. Mr. Lansing suggested tho Bending of tho following circular to every licoused physician in town. "Dear Sir: In view of tho fact that thoro havo been at loost four oases of undoubted diphthoria in Honolulu within a period of leu days ami also that thoro aro at this timo iu tho city a considerable number of "soro throats," tho Hoard of Health requests thut yon will immediately report r.nyj caso iu your practise which you consider oven suspicious. Dr. Alvarez will hold himself in rendinoss to examine any exudato or othor specimen which you may refer to him for bacteriological examination." ' Ou tho suggestion of Dr. Alvarez all physiciuus and school teachors woro notified to roport to tho Board all cobob of nggravatod soro throat coming to their attention. A socond special meoting of the Board was convonod at 10 min utes to 0 this morning to tako ac tion on the arrival of tho steam ship China. Thoro woro present President Smith nnd members Brown, Day, Lansing and Wood. President Smith reported the arrival of the China, leovingYo kohama on April 24, witu six cabin, Gl Ohineso and 256 Jnpo noso for Honolulu. Tho Japanese had boon quarantined for 14 days previous to leaving Yokohama. Thoro was no sickness on board of any kind and had been none on tho voyage Dr. Eldridgo roported that for tho two woeks provious to tho sailing of tho China thoro had been but 8 cases of smallpox in Yokohama with 2 deaths. Ho considered tho opidomic appar ently at an ond. President Smith under tlieso circumstances favored tho saloon passougers boing allowed to laud and tho through pacBengers to corao tiBhoro if thoy .viahed. In s letter from Dr. Eldridgo that phy sician stotod that in all his exper ience bo uovor know of a case of smallpox among cabin passon gors. Dr. Wood favored tho rolease of the steorage passongers nt tho ond of 18 days from tho timo of leav ing Yokohama. Tho stoorago passongers must go into qunran tiuo as usual. Saloon passongers to be nllowort to land. There woro Ohineso women from Hongkong on board who camo in tho En ropeau steoraRO nnd did not in nny way miuglo with tho others in the Oriental steerage President Smith thought if Dr. Day was satisfied of that fact, tho women should bo allowed to land as well aB tho saloon passongers. Mr. Lausing was in favor of not allowing people from tho shore on board tho vessel, at least not into tho steerage. Dr. Day said thoro woro 270 tons of freight on board for this port from Yokohama aud 12 from Hongkong aud suggested that it bo fumigated as usual and the' Board so ordered, in spite of ob jections by President Smith who thought that such fumigation was unnecessary unless tho cobos had beon opened and thoir contonts oxpoaod, which woh not tho coso.

Tronlilc tvltti thi' TiiIkmI Main ))l cuotl n I.liMn tn Arlo Iriim' IIik ii.iIKt. Tho Japan Gazetto of April 11 ! gives credit to the Japan Tirueu for tho following: "At the Cabinet Council hold yesterday TuoBduy, it wns do cidod to dispatch a man of-war to Hawaii for tho protection of tho Jnpaueso residents. Tho cruiser Naniwa has been choBen for tho mission, aud instructions woro at onco isBiied to hor to got ready for tho voyago as soon ns possible. Sho will convoy Mr. Akiyama, Councillor of tho Foroign Office, who will be tho bearer of instruc tions from tho luiparial Govern ment to Minister Shimamura. AVe presurao that a singlo ship will bo amply sufficient for the purposo of protecting our nationals in ( Hawaii. Apart from that object thoro is, as wo havo already pointed out, nothing in tho pro sent condition of affairs which calls for a Naval display in Ha waiian waters. Whothor such a contingency may arise, deponds outirely upon the attitude of the Hawaiian Government. So far as the Imperial Government is con cerned, wo presume that thoro is no intention to depart from tho usual process of amicable negotia tions. Wo also trust that, ou calm consideration of tho matter, tho Cabinot at Honolulu will see its tvuy to rorneiljitig thf wioug which has undoubtedly been done to our countrymen". Nothing would be moro regiettablo than to boo tho matter transformed into a serious diplomatic complication between this country ond tho United States a contingency which is not by any moans im possible, aud which, we fear, is oxactly what somo politicians in Hawaii aro most desirous of bring ing about. Japan will not ilitich from meeting manfully any turn the question may assume, but it would bo extremely deplorublo, should circumstances forco any serious rupture with a nation to which wo owe so much in our past efforts to advanco nloug tho path of the now civilization. We, however, repeat our hopo that no such disagreeable situation will arise out of tho present troublo." Tho Gazette itself says editori ally: "Hawaii has less diguity to support than Japan, but that does not oxcuse an un warrantable infraction of the Treaties, and her attitude necessitates .lapau taking immediato measures to have tho matter -placed ou a moro satisfac tory footing. But whether tho stop Japan has decided upon is wiso, or calculated still further to provoko the fears entertained at Honolulu, is an open question. Sho has ordered the Naniwa to proceed at onco to tho islands, i'lio presonco of this ship, which achioved a peculiar notoriety in the lato war by sinking tho Kow shing and massacring tho crow in tho water, may in ilame tho 10,000 Japanese iu Ha waii to bucIi an extent as to imperil public peoco. Thoro is no doubt that tho Japanese aro a fighting nice; Unit tLcy do not fear death, and that onco aroused they may bo capablo of commit ting outrages of a very serious character. But a rising of tho Japaneso in the Islands is not tho ouiy thing to bo feared. The Hakusan Marti was to start today with several hundred emigrants and by the time she arrives tho Nauiwa will bo alroady in port. That looks as if Japan wero anx ious to muko"a test case; by forc ing tho matter to an immediato issuo. The Captain of tho Naniwa will find himself iu a very delicato and difficult situation, but, fortu nately, tho olficor in ohurgo, Cap tain Kuro-oka, is a vory capablo Continued on J,lh Page.

SATURDAY'S BALL GAME .sui.iiitins scoiti: a vtcrnny ovi:k thi: coi.r.r.ci: ttovs. Tin- I'leimurr o" llio Nrttnlr K-irrril by Iliwi1)liu Aiinuij; Ilia Itcul- ini'iif. I'liin'r. In many rospects the ball game lost Saturday afternoon between tho St. Louis nnd Regiment teams resombled that of tho week pre vious, for tho St. Louis team made about as good a stand boforo tho Regiments ns tho lattor did before tho Stars tho week provious. In somo respects, howovor, it was differentj-much to tho regret of the rcnu'agomout, tho Bulletin is as sured. Tho plnyiug of the Regi mout team wob marked through out by an utter disregard of tho rulos of coaching and by a dis play of rowdyism among the Regiment players and thoir sup porters in tho grand stand that would havo done credit to Tar Flat in San Francisco. Cnptain Gorman of tho Regiments should have enforced better discipline among his. team but iustoad took tho lead in showing how little ho knew nbout playing gentlemanly bull. His en"orts wero ably acc ouded by Kiloy and a lot of "rootors" with him in tho grand stand and if tho polico had dono their duty they would nil havo boeu promptly ejected. Such actions and language ns was used by this crowd lust Saturday will stop decont men, let alono ladies, from patronizing any mor tmines in which tho Regiment pfayora take part. In addition, tho Regi ment players invaded tho press stuud in spito of tho protest of scorer nnd reporters and from that point of vantage coached the game and mndo disparaging remarks on the play. Mr. Hennessey was a shining exaraplo of this latter crowd aud ho needs to bo sat up on hard. Theso things must not bo re pented or the management will quickly find that the balanco of tho soason's games will bo played to empty benches. Tho Honolulu public will patronizo good clean ball games but ono Tar Flat gamo is enough. To tho credit of Cap tain Thompson's team it may bo stated that thoir conduct was tho exact opposite of that of tho Regi ments. Tho details of tho game are given below, tho finnl score being 20 to G in favor of tho sohliors: For tho Regiments Mooro woa tirst to tho bat. llo mado socond on a passed ball.
