S Alert predicts that the Californians are at least 67 points behind these figures. Officers of the N. G. H. and others, who have studied the strength of the re spective teams, believe that the Hi- waiians are the victors by several points. It was a bad day for shooting. The wina was vanaoie ana at times very strong. Wind-gauges had to be given as many as four points to the left Even then in clear sweeps of the wind the shots flew outward. It was also cloudy much of the time, darkenin M. W. McCHESNEY & SONS mrmg u a11 tne narder Lieutenant Colonel J. H. Fisher was on the grounds as Captain of the Ha waiian team. Captain Hanford of the U. S. S. Alert represented the First Regiment, N. G. C. Colonel Fisher was assisted by Captain Paul Smith and Lieutenant Evansen. Lieutenant Lans- men would make a 40 average, but some of the men who took part in the contest, had not shot for months. Tom Wall was one of them. When in prac tice his average is good, but on Satur day he made his first appearance at the butts for six months, and then used strange gun.

OLNEY Lusty Fighting Continues in Philippines. One Day's Later Foreign News. Gladstone's Birthday. Irish Politics, WASHINGTON. Dec. 2i. From oflicial sources a denial is made that the Span ish Premier, Canovas, has sent Secretarj' Olney a communication accepting the me diation of the United States in carrying out a scheme of autonomy for Cuba. It is said that no such letter has been sent nor has any thing of such a nature passed through the Spanish officials here. Ne gotiations toward home rule have pro ceeded for some months, and the last phase of these negotiations indicated as enlargement of the home rule laws adopt ed by the Spanish Cortes last year, but not put in execution. These arrange ments embrace the election of the entire Cuban congress instead of a mixed Con gress of fifteen elected members and fif teen appointed by the Queen regent and also a complete control of Cuba of her tariff question. The latest statement regarding Spain s ntention with respect to the pacification of Cuba, therefore, deals with the past phases of them. Spain having decided on i considerably more liberal scheme of re- torms than the old to which the latest publication on the subject has reference. As yet, however, the negotiations with respect to the enlarged reforms are ten tative. A draft of them has not been re ceived as yet at Washington, and the in formation on them is of a general na ture. 4 4 3 2 5 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 3 4 4 4 4 3 4 5 4 5 5 4 5 4 0 4 4 4 5 4 4 3 4 3 4 3 5 4 3 5 5 4 3 4 3 3 5 4 4 4 5 3 4 441 3 231 5 4- 4 440 4 4 3S 4 430 4 4 10 2 337 5 3 4 3 4 3 3 3S 4 5 3 4 4 4 4 430 Company F Iieut.

An emphatic de nial is given here to the report credited to the Washington Post that Senor Du puy de Lome, the Spanish Minister at Washington, and Secretary Olney have concluded negotiations for the acceptance by Spain of the good offices of the United States in the settlement of the Cuban :i; surrection. ' released from prison, said that Lord ('as tledown's declaration that ho would have truth and justice on his side or do as the people in America had done sent a thrill through the country, and he hoped thi meeting would declare that if Lord C;t tledown was true to himself and Ireland, history might yet proclaim him the suc cessor of the great and illustrious Washington. DEAL WITH Course of FILIBUSTERS. Unltetl States Towards Steamer Three Friends. WASHINGTON, Dec. 29. The author ities of the Treasury Department and the department of Justice expect the prose cution of the alleged filibustering steam er Three Friends will he under section 52S2 of the Revised Statutes. This will be a new method of prosecution. Hereto fore the proceedings have been mainly under section 52S6, covering expeditions. Section 52S2 is directed against the arming and mounting of guns on a vessel Intend ed to le used against a friendly nation. As those on board the Three Frtends have given circumstantial detail as to the mounting and llring of a Hotchkiss rapid fire gun, it is believed by the officials that section 52S2 will apply to the case. The proceedings against the vessel are much more severe than in the case of a libel for fitting out an expedition. The statute provides that on conviction the vessel and all tackle, stores, etc., shall be forfeited to the United States. The proceedings are in charge of District At torney Clark of Jacksonville, who Is act ing under general instructions and is not reporting on the details of the case, al though the general character of the pro cedure Is known here. The assistant col lector of customs will turn the vessel over to the legal ofllcers of the Govern ment on her arrival at Jacksonville, and thereafter Mr. Clark will have entire con trol of the prosecution. WAIT IX Rebels oIn Very PIHLIPPINES. Well Matter of Castlllan Pride. LONDON, Dec. 30. The paily News' Paris correspondent says it is quite clear that Spain is negotiating with Olney, but Castilian pride compels the Government to negotiate in an underhand way. They cannot help trying to arrive at a private understanding with the United States, for the proceeds of the recent loan are nearly exhausted, and Captain General Weyler s apparent inaction has checked the buoy ancy which followed Maceo's death. MAY MAKE Permission to MORE SUGAR. lie Given to Cuban Planters. NEW YORK, Dec. 29. A World special from Havana says: Permission to make sugar will be given to the planters in the western provinces of Cuba. This infor mation comes from a high official, who is in a position to know. He said ex plicitly, however, that his statement is not official, because he has no authority to give out such news as official. The condition of affairs now is such as to re move the objection of allowing planters to grind cane. Edward Atkins, the proprietor of the great Soledad plantation, near Cien- fuegos is particularly anxious to make sugar, as also Is the manager of the es tate of Welch Bros., of 41 Wall street, New York. Information that grinding will be permitted was sent to Mr. Atkins today. IRISH Resolutions POLITICS. Present PaKix! Airalnst Overtaxation. LIMERICK, Dec. 29. Lord Dunraven presided today at a meeting here of all classes at which a resolution similar to the one agreed upon at the Mansion House (Dublin) meeting of yesterday was adopted, calling upon the Government to remedy the financial injustice done to Ireland by overtaxation. Hishop O'Dv.yer, who was the chief speaker, exhorted Irishmen to stand to gether in the spirit of the words of Lord Castledown, uttered at Cork on Decem ber 3d last, when he denounced the ob stinacy of the British Treasury officials in refusing to grant the grievance of the Irish in respect to taxation. Lord Castledown, upon that occasion, aid he hoped that history might not be repeated and the people of Cork not fol low the example of the neonle of Bos ton in ln3, when they threw a cargo of tea into the harbor as a protest against unjust taxation. John Daly, the Irish agitator recently Though Poorly Armed. MANILA (Phillippines) via Hongkong, Dec. 29. Col. Marina's column defeated the rebels on Saturday at San Mateo, a town ten miles northwest of Manila, the rebels leaving twenty-seven dead on the held. Returning to his quarters for the night, Col. Marina was attacked by a superior force, which, after several bay onet charges, lied, leaving over eighty of their number dead. The Spanish losses were small. The seaport of Moron, In the province in Bataan, has fallen Into the hands of the rebels, who have captured two Span ish priests and the Mayor. Gen. Rios brigade has had some heavy fighting at Balinag, a town on the borders of the province of Bulacana and Nueva Eciga. which was held by a strong force of rebels. The latter were driven out and with great slaughter. Three hundred and fifty weie buried by the Spaniards, who lost only a few men. The rebels removed their wounded from the field. The rebels are badly armed, the superior range of the Mauser rifles accounting for the heavy mortality on the rebel side. MADRID, Dec. 29. Advices from Ma nila, capital of the Philippine islands, says a conspiracy against the Spanish Government has been discovered In the province of Uulucan. Many notables have been arrested and arms seized. In an engagement between the Span iards and Insurgents north of Manila the latter are said to have lost 13S men. No Cause JAPANESE COMMERCE.

"Japan has a larger carrying trade on the Pacific than the United States, and Americans who are near enough to watch the shifting of scenes in this new and rapidly developing contest for commercial supremacy find little matter for pr?de in the present ten dencies." This is a statement from United States Consul Bell of Sydney, con tained in a report to the State Depart ment upon the opening of the new Jap anese steamship line between Yokohama and Australia.
