On Saturday this paper gave the largest summary of foreign news which was over piepared and printed in Honolulu on the bame day as the mail arrived. A continuation of the budget compiled for that issue but crowded out appears to-day. When ever the Mniiposa hove in sight early on Saturday morning, the bad fact of General Grant's death was evident to the few waiters on the wharf. The ship's flags drooped at half-mast in the still air. Although the news would not have been sur prising at any mail arrival for the past four or five months, it can scarcely be said to have been ex pected, n pretty general hopes were entertained that the illustrious pa tient's life would have been pro longed in the pure mountain air through the summer. It is some what consoling to know, in the midst of world-wide regret over the event, that General Grant's last desire had been fulfilled. Some time before his death, he was given the giati fying assurance that his book of reminiscences of the civil war had been forwarded by his own hand to a point from which it could be satis factorily completed by others and yet remain essentially his own woik. The world has also a common cause of mourning with England, in the death of one of the most reinatkable figures of the ago, Sir Moses Monle fiore, the wealthy and philanthropic Hebrew citizen of London, who died July 28th, full of years and honor. War long-expected between Eng land and Russia is still staved off, but so unsettled is the situation that an outbreak is not unlikely to occur at any moment. The new British Cabinet is finding that it was infinitely easier to gain power than to use it well. Already there is war in the camp, the youth ful Secretary for India, Lord Uan dolph Churchill, having been vir tually read out of the party by the chief Tory Organ. The Home Rule paity is, moreover, proving a broken reed as a staff for the present 1 tilers to rest upon. It has once already gono back upon the compact and left the Government in a miuoiity. As usual, too, the Irish party itself has split just when its prospects were the biightesl for the accom plishment of its aims. Michael Davitt has conic out, fair and square, as a secession ist, and is so much in earnest as to refuse parlia mentary honors involving his swear ing allegiance to the Queen. It would seem that the expostucs of the Pall Mull Gazelle have opened the vent of a moral volcano in the United Kingdom, in whose eruption may happily be consumed, , , root and branch, a vast deal of cor- lujniuu uuw jJuituiuuy me nie sources of the nation. ' , The Malidi is dead. This would have been truly welcome news be fore the impostor had wreaked his cowardly vengeance upon Gordon. Now it seems to have hardly excited a word of comment at least it is quite overshadowed by other current events. England has received the general European consent to a new Egyptian Joan, which shows the folly of most of the talk about her isola tion in Europe in respect to the Egyptian question. Tho Pacific Mail intelligence given by us on Saturday was of a highly interesting nature, nuil every ate- ,j ,- tfif 'Ua, j fcj&im .. (it mvnBinfaaaBBa cccding mail, until Hie problem of steam communication in the Pacific is solved, will be eagerly awaited for developments. To-day a variety of European gossip is printed, some of it of peculiar interest. FRE8Gfti MEWS. THU AI'MIIAV HISiTIT.. Lord Randolph Churchill, Secre tary for India, stated in the House of Commons that the Government had no intention of negotiating with Abdurrahman Khan, Ainccr of Af ghanistan, for the defence of Canda har. England had given certain pledges to the Anieei, and if the emergency requiring it arises and the Ameer asks for assistance, the course of England will be clear. The Grand Vizier of Tin key says he recognizee the necessity of Tur key foiming an alliance with Eng land, and declares that to be much easier now than it has been before. The St. Petersburg Svcl (military organ) reports that a linn in Texas has olfeied to General Koiuaroff the services of one hundred cowboys, in the event of war between Russia and England. iiniori:, mici:i.iani:ol. A special from Brussels of July 2!)th says: King Leopold yesterday, while visiting the Exposition at Ant werp, mentioned to several foreign Ministeis hit intention of shot try in forming their Governments of his intention to take the title of Sover eign of the Congo Free State. The Conservative journals of Co penhagen, Denmark, refer to a pub lic scandal, involving a professor in the University, a president of a lead ing scientific sociotj', a most eminent author of Denmark, several wealthy merchants and some members of the magistracy. They arc accused of betraying young girls. Ten culprits have been arrested, two of whom have committed suicide. The ex posures resulted from nn attempt to extort money, which was resisted. The great bricklayers' strike in Berlin is ending in the discomfiture of the strikers. They complain bitterly of the interference of the authorities in favor of employers. It is even declared that the Post Office intercepted letters containing money to aid the strike. During hostilities six thousand bricklayers left Berlin, nearly all of whom went to work in the harvest fields in differ ent paits of Germany. Sixty criminals who had been aen tenced lo exile in Siberia, while en route, rose agaist their guards, and, although unarmed, began a desper ate fight for libeity. The battle lasted a long time and the soldiers weie absolutely unable to conquer their manacled assailants. Twenty of them were shot dead, and of the other forty, thirty succeeded in making good their escape. The Berlin Musik Zeitumj an nounces the engagement of Miss Emma Nevada to Charles Halle. Mrs. Mackcy will place her house in Paris at the disposal of Miss Nevada for the marriage and will piovidc the wedding breakfast. George V. N. Lothrop, Ameri can iuimstcr to uussia, ptcsenteu his credentials on August 1st to the Czar. The municipal authorities of Ge noa arc about lo ask the govern ment to subscribe for a demonstra tion in honor of Christopher Colum bus in 1892, with an exhibition of relics and American produce. Theic was a verytiirbulentscenein the French Assembly, during the debate upon the colonial policy of the late Ministry. At one point Dc Cassagnac shook his fist in Piimc Minister Perry's face and cried out, "You are an Impudent fellow!" The credit was finally voted, by 291 to .12. The German Government has ordered an investigation into the circumstances of the Socialistic riot at Eiankfort-on-thc-Main, with a view, it is reported, of declaring the city in a state of siege. Such a declaration would place the town so absolutely under iron rule that the Government believes it would en tirely suppress Socialism there. It is reported tiie Go eminent has de cided to make an exhaustive inquiry into the subject of Sunday labor. Ultl'.AT BIIITAI.V. 'in jiosiii jioviT.rioni: ii:ai. Sir Moses Monleflore, the Jewish philanthropist, whoso hundredth birthday was lately celebrated, is dead. His funeral' in London, July .'51 st, was largely attended. The cotlln was so placed that tin head rested upon a btone biought from Jerusalem. In the colllu had been placed many relics of Lady Monte liore and the Holy Land, together with an account of the good works of tho deceased. Over the collin, as the relatives and friends passed, each scattered a handful of earth from Bachael's grave In the Holy Land, POLITICS. The elections nro expected to be the most severely-contested ones since the famous campaign of"l83C. Tory candidates will stand in every 'JMMksimfC A'-k-v -rfiikt constituency in England and Scot land, except about forty where tho T.tbflrnlci nro en clrmifr llinf if ,vrti,11 be a waste of energy to try to beat ( them. Mr. Gladstone, in a letter to .1 Manchester elector, says ho looks forward with assured confidence to the result of the elections. His voicu having failed, Mr. Gladstone's physicians have enjoined complete rest, and he has gone on n yachting excursion w ith Sir Thomas Brassey in the Sunbeam. There are signs of trouble in the new Ministry. Lord Randolph Churchill and the Earl of Iddc 'deigh both remained away from a banquet to the Ministers, July 29th. A great Tory meeting at Liverpool, at which Lord Churchill was to have been the piincipal speaker, on the same day, had to be postponed be cause at the last moment he refused to attend. The Slatul'ird, the accepted Tory organ, has given Lord Churchill a vcvero rating, saying it should fol low Salisbury but not that "over grown schoolboy, who is without knowledge to fathom his own ignor ance of statesmanship." The new Government was defeat ed in the House of Commons, by 180 to 100, on a minor point of tho Medical Belief bill. Their Parnel litc allies deserted the Conserva tives, which was the cause of the reverse. The incident caused much commotion, but would have no practical result. AN AKISTOCRAIIC SI'.T-TO. Lord Lonsdale and Sir George Chetwynd have had a ten minutes' fight, first on horseback with whips and then dismounted with lists, over Mrs. Lily Langtry, the actress. Sir George began by striking Lord Lonsdale over the bead with a horse whip, exclaiming, "Take that, you devil. Don t meddle with my Lily." r.r.NEKAr.. Princess Beatrice was married to Prince Louis of Battcnburg, July 2.1ul. Queen Victoria gave the bride away, it is said because the Prince of Wales, who should have done so, would have nothing lo do with the marriage. Sir Charles Dilke has been impli cated in a scandal with women, which almost broke him down. The mat ter having been settled some way, the late Radical Minister was to have come from seclusion to his seat in Parliament last Monday. The Radical newspapers arc pur suing the Piincc of Wales, for going 111 for a racing stud. They insist that the man who expects to be the next King of Great Britain should not defile himself in such a dirty puddle. M. "Waddington, the French Em bassador at London, and his wife, have both lefused, the St. James Gazette says, to appear in mourning at the court ball, as prescribed by the Queen, because of the death of Prince Frederick Chailes of Ger main'. M. "Waddington's refusal was officially declared in a courteous note sent to her Majesty. In this the French Embassador expressed to the Queen his personal regret at be ing unable to comply with the royal command, but said he could not dis obey the orders of his Government to not wear mourning at the death of any enemy of France. Till: LONDON SCANDAL. Several prominent men in London society, whoso names were on Mrs. Jeffries' books, have disappeared from London, and arc believed to have gone to America. The committee of investigation into the statements of the Pall Mall Gazette have reported that they are satisfied that, on the whole, they are substantially true. The report is signed by the Archbishop of Canterbury, the Bishop of Lon don, Cardinal Manning and Messrs. Morley and IJeid. On July 30th the Salvation Army marched with much parade t,o the Parliament buildings to present to the House of Commons the mionstcr petition urging the immediate pass ago of the Criminal Act amendment raising the age of consent fiom thir teen years to eighteen years. The petition, which contains 500,000 signatures, and is one mile and a half long, was borne in a special carriage. Tho crusade against immorality in city and country grows daily, and the leaders in most cases are women. At a meeting in Glasgow, the Provost said that enquiries showed that there prevailed in Glasgow a system of corruption of minor fe males similar to that exposed in London. r 11 i LIME !
