which runs from the Stato Department
to Canton, and suggested that there
might yet be time, It prompt action by
all tho powers were taken, to save Min

Secretary H. E. Cooper was round
nt his desk today, Immersed In a pon
derous Pub. Doc., a Report ol the Fish
Commission of the United States. Ho
said Its contents were tereclally Inter
esting to him at this time, '.vhtu It wax
contemplated to Invite the attention ot
the Commission to Hawaiian waters.
"Here Is one very Intemtlng article
on the results of attempts to acclima
tise fish In the Pacific States. I see In
n list 'of fishes tried there our Hawa
iian nun, but I have not yet como
across particulars as to Its success.
There are 31 vnrletlts lifted, including
the lobster, oyster and clam. Th
rest are fishes and til."
"What plan do you Intend to adopt
for Introducing new fishes Into Hawa
iian waters, Mr. Cooper?"
"In the first place," the Secretary ot
the Territory, replied, "1 am trying to
interest the Commissions by tending
him n report on our own flth as to
their habits nnd chnracttrietlcs, and
the waters In which they are lound.
'Then I shall send him analyses of
the waters In different placet', data of
temperature, difference of bottoms,
food on which different 'varieties
thrive, etc.
"I shall try to secure a vltlt to theso
Islands from some member of tho staff
of the Commission. My hepe la to
gain the Importation of fish that would
do well here.
'Ie seems to me that Pcail harbor
would be very favorable to many kinds
of fish from other waters. The water
at the head of the lochs Is different
from that near the mouth. The tea life
Is different, the bottom Is different.
I do not know whether cr not the,
thark Is a foe against which we shall
have to contend."
The Florence OH.
Chas. T. Wilder, president of tho
Florenco Oil Co., writes a letter of In
formation for the many shareholders
In Honolulu. At n depth of 910 feet
the boring apparatus met with an acci
dent, but although the well had to bo
abandoned It proved the prosenco of
oil. Between COO and 900 feet the bore
went through heavy oil sands nui
considerable gas was emitted. Another
well was started and Is now down 400
feet. Mr. Wilder ohd other officers cf
the Florence are very hopeful of a
paying strike.

ter. It Is said that sho sent a dispatch to'Nanklng by courier nt tho it

London, July 10. Chinese offlclul
sources furnish another surprise today
In announcing that tho Dowager Em
pi ess, who had been reported within
two weeks, dead, lied, poisoned and
hopelessly mad, has resumed tho reins
of power. The date given Is June :10,
tho same on which tho wholesale, macs
aero bf foreigners Is alleged to havo
occurred.
Tho telegram of Sheng, tho adminis
trator ot telegraphs and railroads to
tho Chinese Minister at Washington,
Wu Ting Fang, saying tho Imperial
government Is protecting the Lega
tions appears to fit In with th edlspatch
from Shanghai of this morning, par
ticularly with reference to tho alleged
directions given by the Dowager Em
press rclatlvo to tho protection of for
eigners. At tho same time people ioii
tlnuo to nsk why, It th clegatliins nie
protected, tho Ministers arc not per
mitted to communicate with the outer
world. Shcng's expressed fear that
the food and ammunition of the lega
tions nro exhausted aro counteracted
by the news that Prlnro Chlng, IN
commander ot tho Manchu field force.
Is revlctuallng them, besides whlcn It
Is now known that In tho last resort
there arc available for food scvoijI
hundred ponies, usually Kept within
tho walls of the British Legation.
Meanwhile, according to the Japan
ese Legation here, tho Japanese by 110
means share tho general opinion that
tho advance on Peking must be. Indefi
nitely postponed. The officials assert
that tho Japanese havo no Intention
of halting nt Taku or Tien Tsin, bit
proposo to advance on Peking during
the piescnt week. Their military au
thorities express tho opinion that 20,
000 of their troops, In addition to thn
International forces, already available,
will suffice to force an entry Into thn
Chinese capital.
Emperor William despatched the
German warship Utuzard from Kiel
for China this morning, whtlo tho Got-
man cruisers Gcler and Seeadler have
been orderd to proceed to China ns
rapidly as possible from their Ameri
can nnd Australian stations, respec
tively. It has been learned by tho Associated
Press that tho Chinese Legation heie,
though apparently unable to comnniiu
rato directly with Peking Is getting
news from there Indirectly. Tho otll-
clnls of tho legation declnro tho present
trouble Is entirely tho work of Prlnea
Tuan nnd that tho government, tho
Dowagpr Empress and the Chinese
generally uro against tho Iloxers.
Tho officials also, say they havo rea
son to hopi that tho situation at Pe
king Is Improving nnd that Prince
Chlng will succeed In protecting tho
foreigners. They scouted the itorloi
of tho massucro of tho pcoplo In tho li
gations and tho poisoning of the Em
peror and Dowager Empress, oxpre.13
tho opinion that Prince Chlng and the
loyal Viceroys could bo best be assist
ed by tho promised dispatch of Inter
national reinforcements and tho prom
lso of help In the formation ot a strong
government.
Neither official nor press despatches
warrant this conclusion, hut there are
hopeful signs In several quarters of tho
clouded sky.
The Empress Dowager Is evidently
playing oft Prlnco Chlng against
Prlnco Tuan and throwing out an an
chor to windward. This Is a fact
which Impresses the diplomatists here.
Thoy rend with composure tho details
of despcrato lighting nt Tien Tsin and
thn rcpulso of tho Chinese nttneks upon
tho allied troops. They assert that
skirmishes In which casualties to Eu
ropean nnd Americans nro trivial ar

it it it it it it it it it it it it it it it

Delated details of tho fighting at
Tien TBln nro conflicting and untrust

ing, that tho allied forces arc prepar
ing to mako a successful advance upon
the capital, and that tho diplomatists
In European capitals arc not wasting

In a most practical way.
Tlcn Tsin Bombnrtlment.
( Associated Press Special.)
New York, July 10. A dispatch lo
tho Herald from Cbefoo, dated Sunday,
says:
Refugees who havo arrived from
Tien Tsin bring the following Informa
tion: The Chinese resumed tho bombard
ment ot tho foreign quarter last Tues
day nnd non-combatants wero ordered
that day to leave. The bombardment
Is described ns tho worst yet experi
enced, but thero wero no civilian ca
unltlcs, though many marvelous es
capes nro reported. A foroo of Ilrltlr.h
nnd Russians tried to silence tho Chi
nese guns, hut retired without effect
ing their object.
Two guns from tho Terrible silenced
the Chinese guns on Thursday, hut tho
artillery duel recommenced on Eil-
day.
Two hundred refugees, mostly wo
men and children, left Thursday .and
Friday in lighters, towed by launches
nnd reached Taku safely. Small bod
ies of Russians nnd Japanese wero nut
at short Intervals all tho way down.
To their presence was duo tho pnclllc
demeanor of tho Chinese Several
burning villages wero passed.
They aro supposed to havo been set
on flfo by Russians, who occupy a tort
midway between Tlcn Tsin and Taku,
where they have n torpedo boat. Seven
hundred Russians, nro occupying the
railway and station at Tong Yu. Ja
panese troops wero landing at Taku.
The Yorktown took twcnty-flvo Amer
ican refugee on hoard. Tho Germans
went aboard a German warship, whlln
tho llrltlsh wero transferred to tho
Halnchl and tho Hal I.oong. The
former has reached Chefoo with fifty
refugees on the way to Shanghai. Tlw
latter, with 150, Is proceeding to Naga
saki.
Tho llrltlsh cruiser Alacrity called
at Chefoo this morning from Wcl Ihu
Wcl to obtain moro guns for Tlcn Tsin
which Is weak In artillery. Tho Im
mediate object ot tho allies is to tako
tho nntlvo city nnd stop tho bombard
ment and sniping.
Outlook More Hopeful.
(Associated Press Special.)
Now York, July 10. A dispatch to
tho Tribune from London says: Whllo
thero Is no light thero Is n sense of do
parting darkness In China. Tho South
ern Viceroys, who havo tuken it line of
action of their own, understand what
Is going on both In Peking and In Eu
rope, nnd aro not In sympathy with
Prlnco Tuan and tho Iloxers.
They hao been waiting for a counter
movement ngalnst tho military usurpa
tion, and now that a reaction has set
In against massacre and revolution
they aro asserting their authority and.
sending to tho palaco Information re
specting tho armaments of tho foreign
powers and tho combined forces ot thn
civilization which Prjnco Tuan and
the ICiu press have defied,
If little trustworthy news conies out
cf Peking It docs not follow that a
good deal of truth and common 'sens!
aro not going In through tho foreign
consulates and provincial centers. For
this reason sumo of the best Informed
men In nnd out of Parliament aro now
convinced that the Legations will be
spared, and that a truce will ho ordered
from tho palaco nnd tho China question
adjusted by diplomatic means.
