TUI1ERCULOSIS.
IIiIo'n Xemorlnl for the Queen'
Jiiblloo-Matlern at the Loper Not-
tlement Renllue Report.
At tho meeting of the Board of
Health yesterday there wore pre
sent Attorney-General Smith pre
siding, Dr. Wood and Emerson,
T. F. Lansing and D. Eeliipio,
members, Agent Reynolds, Secre
tary. Wilcox and Dr. Monearrat.
Dr. Monearrat's report on cattle
slaughtered during the past week
was presented but not read. In
response to a question the dootor
stated hat all the hogs at the
pens were in a remarkably
healthy condition.
A joint report from veterinary
surgeons Shaw and Monearrat
gave the results of their work in
eradicating tuberculosis as far as
they have gone, as follows:
"Eapahulu dairy, located above
Eapiolani Park, was first visited
on the 20th of April and work
conoluded on tho 13th inst.
Thirty-three cattle were tested as
follows: Thirty-one (31) cows,
one hoifor and ono bull. Eleven
cows wore slaughtered for sus
pected tuboroulosis owing to tub
erculin reaction, and on post
mortem all showed lesions of
tuboroulosis in different organs.
Since the removal of the infected
animals, steps are being taken to
put the dairy in a perfectly sani
tary condition.
"Waterhouse dairy, three cattle
property of Mr. Fred Waterhouse,
Nuuanu valley, adjoining dairy of
Mr. E. W. Jordan, Numbers 49 to
61 inclusive. No. 49 is to bo re-
tested at a later date as present
test was not satisfactory,50 and 51
in our opinion are free of disease.
"Jordan dairy, Nuuanu valley,
numbered from 34 to 48 inclusive.
Cows, ton; heifers, four; bull, one.
Numbers 34 and 38 are to be re
tested at a later date, as the results
were not satisfactory. In our opi
nion the rest of tho hord are froo
from disease."
President Smith made the sug
gestion that the Legislature should
be asked to make laws requiring
the strict examination of all live
stock intended for these islands
previous to embarkation, and if
necessary previous quarantine.
Such laws were in force in other
countries. He desired the mem
bers to think the matter ovor.as ho
intended to bring it up for aotion
in the future.
Fish Inspector Eeliipio's re
port showed that 45,728 fish were
received at the market last week.
Dr. R. P. Myers reported mak
ing 78 examinations under the
Act to Mitigate.
A communication was rcoeivod
from Agent Meyer of the Leper
Settlement that he was unable to
be present at the meeting by
reasonof siokness, and inclosing
reports on matters at tho Leper
Settlement, among them a report
from his deputy, Mr. Hutohinson,
of the stabbing affray recently
noted in thoso columns. In the
matter of Holt's coffee house, Mr.
Meyer recommended that his pe
tition for free wood and freight be
not granted.
President Smith brought up a
matter which requires investiga
tion. It appers that large quanti
ties of the Goto remedies for
leprosy are being Bold in this city.
As these remedies aro only im
ported by the Board and sent
direct to Dr. Oliver at tho Settle
ment, someone must be bringing
them back to Honolulu.
Agent Reynolds told of one
man, who is at tho Ealihi receiv
ing station, selling $25 worth of
the remedies last week. It was
afterward found that this man had
been a sort of storekooper for Dr.
Oliver, and had access to tho modi
cine. Tho Board conoluded to
niako a personal investigation at
tho Bettloraout next week.
President Smith extonded on
behalf of tho Board an invitation
to thn tlirnft rnnnrtnrn nrnnrmt to
I send one representative from each
papor with tho Uoard at its semi
annual visit to tho settlement.
Dr. Watt,the government physi
cian at Lihuo, sent a report on the
condition of the Nawiliwili
stream, which he had beon re
quested to examine. The doctor
reported that the Lihue mill had
shut down and consequently the
contaminations complained of had
ceased for the present. He had,
however, traced them up and in
accordanoe with his report Sheriff
Gartor as agent of tho Board of
Health will bo notified to inform
the management of the Lihue
mill that they must repair and
widen a certain flume running
over the Nawiliwili and clean out
the ditch running round the hill
side. Tho proposod Victoria an
nex to the Hilo hospital
came up again through a
letter recoived by Prosident Smith
from Mr. Elliott, secretaiy of the
.committee in charge of tho same.
Mr. Elliott could give no definite
information bb to how they pro
posed to run tho Victoria wards
after building thorn. Tho Board
finally decided that the building
must be absolutely under the con
trol of tho Board. There would
be no objection to adopting regu
lations concerning it, such as that
tho patients should bo only of tho
Anglo-Saxon race and that they
might be at liberty to have tho
attendance of their own physician
at their expense, and, at tho sug
gestion of Prosident Smith, Dr.
Wood agreed to formulate a set
of regulations on the lines govern
ing private patients received in
the Queen's hospital.
A lettor from one of the lepers
at the settlement conveyed tho in
formation that one of the officials
in tho employ of the Board had
been guilty of the heinous offense
of catching flying fish and selling
them at 25 cents each. He want
ed a chance tobuy fish at a
reasonable rate.
Agent Reynolds reported that
the quarantine on the EinaiMaru's
people was at an end. With
the exception of the two cases in
the hospital the others had been
Bout away from the station. Drs.
Emerson and Wood reported that
tho patients were well and need
be detained no longer. Mr. Rey
nolds was accordingly notified to
send them away today .
Mr. Reynolds then presented
the bills for expenses incurred on
account of the Einai Mam's pas
sengers. They amounted to $5811.
24, with ono bill of $48.48 yet to
ooraein.
In answer to questions Presi
dent Smith said tho government
had exacted from the captain and
agent of the steamor what was
known as a bottomry bond. This
had been signed in addition by
the immigration companies' agents
and others. The bona, naa al
ready been sent to Japan for col
lection and he had no doubt it
would be paid. It was for $8000.
It was impossible to pay these
bills out of the appropriation for
quarantine expenses at tho dis
position of the Board, for there
remained only a little over
$2000 of tho amount to
last another seven months. He
would suggest that tho Board
join in a resolution to the Presi
dent asking that the Ooancil of
State be called together to pass
a special appropriation covering
the amount of these bills, which
must bo paid. Tbo regular appro
priation would then not be inter
fered with.
Iu answer to Mr. Lansing the
Attoruoy General said tho full
amount of the bills would be col
lected out of the bond and go back
to tho treasury in shape of gov
ernment realizations. The gov
ernment would not lose a dollar
by tho transaction.
Tho resolution already prepar
ed by Mr. Smith was then agreed
to.
President Smith said that tho
member of persons asking to go
on tho trio to Molokai had exceed
od all expectations. There waB a
limit to thoso who would lie per
mitted to go and most of tho ap-

to the Madrid Lea-Mlon.
Washington, May 2. President
McEinley has deoided to appoint
Edwin M. Sickles, the son of
General Daniel Siokles, Seoretary
of the Legation at Madrid. This
appointment will not be in any
sense pleasant news to those who
have the interests of Cuba at
heart. Young Siokles is a son of
tho second wife of General Siokles,
and sho is a Spanish woman who
haB lived all her life in Spain, and
her eon was reared in that coun
try. He can hardly speak Eng
lish and is ultra-Spanish in senti
ment. His environments have been
nnnh as to cause him to be devot
ed to the present Spanish Gov
ernment, and it is not likoly that
ho will ever develop any traces of
Americanism. In any case which
mav arise involving tho interests
l0f the United States or Cuba as
aoainst thoso of Spain he may be
oounted upon to give ataaoh sup
port to his sovereign, and Ameri
can or Cuban intoresta will con

Superintendent Meyer of the
Leper Settlement furnishes tho
following ncdotint of tho stabbing
affray at tho euttlemout last week,
partial particulars of whioh wero
published in this paper on May
15.
A blind leper named Eaaa had
been living with a woman named
Eipa for about two years, but for
some reason she left him on the
Friday preceding the affray, an
nouncing her intention of going
elsowhoro for good. Eaaa in
duced another man to load him to
the house whore Eipa had takeu
up hor residence, and on arriving
thero sat himself near hor and
commenced to cry or pretended to
do bo, and, not suspootiug any
troublo, they wore left alone.
After being loft together Eaaa
offered his hand to tho woman,
which sho took and then sat flown
on the floor beside him. While
thoy were talking Eaaa stabbed
the woman repeatedly until her
cries brought help.
Dr. Oliver was sent for and
dressed tho wounds. In all thero
wero six stabs but nono of them
aro necessarily fatal, and Dr.
Oliver is doing his best to save
her life.
Acting ReBidont Superintend

deputy-sheriff, arrested Eaaa and
put him in the settlement jail,
afterwards notifying Sheriff
Trimble and District Judge J. H.
Mahoe, who have taken charge of
subsequent proceedings.

in Washington. It was prepared
by William R. Castlo, while Ha

DEATH OF FRANK SPENCER
ONE Of TIIF. OLDEST RF.JIBK!1TJ or
TIIK IftLANIM.
HomelhliiK About III nriy Career In
Honolulu-Will hef Hurled at
Walmrit, Hawaii.
Frank Spencor, one of the old
est white residents of the Hawai
ian Islands, died last ovenitig nt 9
o'clock at tho residence of his
daughter, Mrs. Bickerton, Wai-,
kiki. Owing to ill health Mr.
Spencei came from his homo at
Waimea, Hawaii, to reside with
his daughter. About six woeks ago
ho had an attack of bronchitis
which afterwards developed into
congestion of the lungs, from
whioh ho died last night.
Tho remains of tho deceased
will be takeu to Hawaii on tho
next steamer for interment at
Waimea. Tho services at the
Bickerton homo previously will
bo private, as far as learned at
this writing.
lrauk oponcer was born in
Sydney, New South WaleB, 77
years ago and was early apprentic
ed to the carpenter's trade. In 1849,
with many others in the colonies,
ho contracted tho California gold
fover and took passage for San
Francisco on the bark Carolino.
This vessel was wreoked on the
reef outside Honolulu and wont
to pieces, but all her passengers
were saved. Mr. Spencer con
oluded to remain in the islands
and went to work at his trade. In
about a year he had saved enough
monoy to erect a two-story wooden
building on Hotel street near
Nuuanu. Here he opened a dry
goods store and prospered, hia
family living in the upper story
of the building.
In 1864 or 1865 Mr. Spencer sold
out his business and wenttoHawaii,
making his home at Waimea,
where he engaged in the business
of raising sheep, and afterwards
cattle. For a number of years ho
held the office of District Magis
trate of Waimea. Mr. Spencer
leaves a widow and three children
besides Mrs. Bickerton, who is a
daughter by a former wife.
WILL DO UOUE THING.
The Hcnatn Will Not Leave Hawaii
Without Comlorl.
In the summary of the Senate
committee's report on the tariff
given by the San Franoisoo Ex
aminer's correspondent at Wash
ington the following statement
consolatory to Hawaii is made:
"In the sugar schedule the pro
vision relating to Hawaiian sugar
is cut out. The committee was of
the opinion that the sugar-growers
of these islands have had the
benefit of nearly $10,000,000 a
year, and thought that was too
much. The committee, howevor,
will recommend that 'something
bo done.' While the members
opposo again giving to Hawaiiaus
all tho benefits they have enjsyod
for twenty-five years, they aro in
favor of doing something for
them. It will bo left to the Senate
to decido what that something
shall be."

It has been written that no mu

view to increasing the average
height of the race. Whatevor re
sults may follow the mothod pro

another instance of tho .determina
