The first news of tho disaster was brought to this city early this
morning by the lntcr-Island steamer Nocau.

Sunday morning, from Hllo, to tho effect that tho Papalkou boiling
houso and tvvontythousand bags of sugar ready for shipment had been
totally destroyed by Are during tho previous night. Tho mill, said the
report, was not Injured. No Information was received concornlng what

Shortly after the Noeau's arrival this morning the story got
around town that the Onomea mill bad been burned to tho ground.

started In the trash house. Fifteen thousand bags of Bugar ltt the
sugar room arc a total loss."
Mr. E. Faxon Bishop stated this afternoon that no further details -f
had been received.
Tomorrow Mr. Hedemann of the Honolulu Iron Works, Mr.
Oeorge Robertson of C. Brewer & Co., and Mr. A. R. Clurroy of tho
