Engineers Solve Problem 

in the Nick 

of Time. 

WORK NEAR HALT 

Final Difficulty Is Now 

Thought to Have 

Vanished. 

On tho verge of a halt in the work 

on tho groat naval drydock at Pearl 

Harbor, tho engineers at tho local naval 

station here discovered tho long sought 

for blend' of concrete, lack of which 

threatened the completion of tho tremendous 

job. It was announced yesterday 

that but for this discovery1 and 

the accompanying solution of tho perplexing 

problem, the men at work 

on tho dock would have been called off 

.yesterday afternoon, indefinitely. As 

it is, the- work will proceed. 

Pew in Honolulu have realized how 

near to serious hitch the work on the 

big dock has been. The fact that the 

bottom, piled high though it 'was with 

inuumer--abl- e 

'concrete, was leaking from the 

springs that gush through " 

the. 

coral there, has been published, but 

not what it meant. knowl-odg- o 

With this 

the engineers in charge of the 

--work found themselves face to face 

with a problem which seemed to be un 

solvable and which o 

threatened tho 

sudden-departure 

task. With the"' 

--of Engineer Franc s IJ. Smith of the1 

Son Francisco Bridge Gompany for tho 

Coast, arose a rumor that the engineers 

iad found the work hopeless, and that 

it might be shut down permanently, and 

a new location sought for tho dock. 

Yesterday's discovery means thnt tho 

$2,500,000 dock will probably be finished 

on tho present site. Had a concrete 

mixture capable of withstanding the 

:action of the water not been found, a 

now site-- would have been select-cd- , 

and failing in that; the drydock 

at Pearl Harbor might have been abandoned 

and the proposed naval base 

planned to bo the greatest under the 

American flag forgotten. In tho absence 

of any knowledge of a concrete 

;3?jislnro which would licriiictlea'ly cap 

tno"obttom tho engineers for the 

came to the eonclu 

sion that it would bo wise to suspend 

all operations until a sat sfactory mixture 

could bo found. 

i . -- In Nick of Time. 

W.s"E..Dillingham, president of the 

Hawaiian Drodging Company, which is 

interested in the San Francisco Bridge 

Company's dock contract, stated yesterday 

that all tho employes would have 

been paid off yesterday afternoon at 

the close of tho day's work, but for 

tho welcome news from the naval n 

authorities that the 

of concrete had been found, 

.Naval Engineer Hoy 1'rancis Smith, 

wlm has been in direct charge of work 

on the Pearl Harbor naval reservation, 

undor Engineer Gayler, U. S. N., com-plotc- d 

Ills tests yesterday and received 

identical information of duplicate tests 

carried on at tho College of Hawaii, 

whore concrete blocks havo been tested 

out for some time. 

"Wo poured n block six feet thick, 

bix icei long anu six icet wiue, composed 

of 1, 2, and 3 2 grade of rock, 

with Puget Sound sand," said Enginect 

Smith yesterday, "and the result exceeded 

all our expectations. Tho class 

of mixture wo had been peeking for 

weeks was found at last, and it is a 

mixture which will compose well in tho 

water of Pearl Harbor. Tho mothod 

lias now been perfected whereby tho 

bottom of tho basin may bo cappod."

REPORT PEST ON 

W N HAWAII 

H. B. GIFFARD NOW INVESTIGAT- 

ING SPECIMENS FOUND ON 

THE SMATJiTIB ISLAND. 

Reports from Maui indicate tho 

presence there of tho Mediterranean 

fruit fly among Chineso oranges. Simultaneous 

reports from Hawaii announce 

that tho fruit fly's appearauco 

on the Kona coffee plantations is not 

regarded as particularly serious. 

H. B. Giffard, agricultural commissioner, 

said yesterday that lie is making 

an investigation of tho Teport from 

Maui and that there is not yet any 

definite proof that the flies found thcro 

aro tho Mediterranean pest. 

J. N. S. AVilliams, ono of the com- - 

mittepmen in plmrrrn nf nfiini.niiTii 

I against the fruit fly, has sent to Mr. 

Giffard a collection of maggots found in 

the infested district of Maui. 

"Until these maggots aro hatched," 

said Mr. Giffard, "thcro is no positivo 

I 

means of determining whether tho 

Chinese ornngo pest is the fruit fly. 

I Tho investigations of Mr.Villiani8 and 

tho goneral character of tho fly invasion 

cast a bit of suspicion over the matter, 

but there is no reason for serious 

alarm." 

As to tho presence of tho fly in Kona 

I Mr. Giffard said that its numbers aro 

not Jargo and everything is being done 

to prevent it from becoming destructive. 

Kona people say that they ha'vo found 

, tflft TIV nli ftill tlisi.r !. ltA 1V1 !. 

..w U(,, muni wiu jiavo uui'M ioiu IS 

tho Mediterranean pest, is an old in- - 

iiauitnnt oi Kona, and has been living 

j in the coffee plantations for years past. 

Mr. Giffaid laughs at this and says 

tho fly has not been thcro two months. 

Maul's first intimation of tho 

presence of the fruit fly came last week 

when J. L. Cornwcll of Wailuku noticed 

(hat the ground under some Chineso 

orango trees nt tho residence of Patrick; 

Cockott of Waikapif, was covered with 

fallen fruit. Ho gathered some of this 

fruit and breaking it opon noticed that 

it was infested with maggots. Thcso 

were taken to tho sheriff's offico at 

Wailuku and J. N. S. Williams, of tho 

antifruit fly committee, examined the 

specimens. 

Fruit in tho infected district was 

destroyed, and precautions taken to 

prevent tho spread of tho insect pending 

more thorough examination.

SHY- - 

POtlTICHlS- - 

Politicians are now studying two 

possibilities in the Democratic party, 

ono of which that McCandicss will offer 

Sheriff Jarrett and Deputy Sheriff 

Koso tho support of tho machine for 

renomination and election on condition 

that they agree to place tho polico departments 

at the disposal of tho machine. 

Tho othor possibility is that tho 

offer has already been made. 

Whilo nothing is moro to bo oxpected 

than this offer, which has actually boon 

formulated in tho Democratic camp, or 

rather, in tho McCandicss camp, few 

thought that tho "Grand Old Bourbon" 

would offer such a scheme to tho 

sheriff, or think that ho was tho kind 

of a man who would accept it. 

Tho sheriff has not yet made any 

statement regarding tho offer. If ho 

nccopts, it will bo to acknowledge tho 

tule of the ring composed of Juon, 

Gumpfcr nnd others which ho smnshed 

a year ago when it tried to saddle tho 

police department with its authority 

after it. lia.il formed itself into tho

Tho first man to go if tho sheriff accepts, 

which all tho chances are' against,

"Governor Forbes was a sick man 

heforo leaving tho Philippines and it is 

not likely that ho will Tcturn to tho

dential election," said Conrad P. Hath-cwaon 

board tho Korea yesterday. 

Mr. Hatheway has been with Mr. For-be- s 

for tho past fourteen years, long

Forbes, wab not a paticnger on the Tl. 

tnlc," said Mr. Hatheway yesterduy. 

"Tho Manila agents of tho White Star 

lino worked hard to get the Governor 

to book on this first trip of tho Titanic, 

nnd nt ono time ho had about decided 

to do so. In tho end, howovcr, ho decided 

to stay longer in lOuropo befbro 

sailing for home, and so was not among 

tho unlucky number to bo on tho d 

ship. 

U.Vor several months Mr, Forbes 1ms 

been in ill health and his physicians 

recommended that ho go homo hoforo 

tlio first of tho year. Ho did not lino 

to leave at that time and so hung on 

for several weeks. When ho went North 

ho was feeling better and by the time 

he left Shanghai ho was in much. better 

shapo," said Hatheway. 

In speaking of tho general conditions 

in tho Philippine Mr. Hathowny stated 

yesterday that everything is booming 

and thcro secnm to bo no end to 

tho prosperity which tho islands nro 

entering upon nt tho present time. Good

Toads movement in tho islands. 

"Tho Govornor-Genera- l will spend 

Kng-land- , 

tho most of his vacation In Now 

but may go out to 'Wyoming on

License Commissioners 

Talk Over New 

Policy 

TOOMUCHNOSAVEY 

Ruling May Put Many 

Orientals Out of 

Business 

(Prom Saturday's Advertiser.) 

If the determination arrived at yesterday 

by the boaTd of license commissioners 

be put into force next Juno, 

when all liquor licenses will linvo to bo 

renewed, only those who can speak anil 

Tead English will be eligible, to become 

licensees. 

Too great a difficulty in getting at 

the facts of an alleged breach of its 

regulations yesterday afternoon convinced 

the board of liquor commissioners 

that people who do not talk 

English should not hold saloon licenses. 

As a result a policy has already been 

formed, which will probnbly bo put into 

force on June 1, and which will put 

many aliens out of the liquor business 

and keep qjhers out, 

No race lines nro intended by the 

commission according to an interpretation 

of the policy given by ono commissioner. 

A Valuablo Prtvilego. 

"I bclicvo that wo nro handling a 

valuable privilege," said Commissioner 

mown. "Too vnlunblo to Do given to 

those who ennnot read the instructions 

of tho board. I do not bcliovo wo 

should have to do our business through 

interpreters." 

So the chances now stand in favor of 

nil Japanese nml Chinese or others now 

holding licenses who can not read tho 

book of instructionsjhey receive, getting 

tho ax. 

Sasaki's license ends on Juno 1 and 

will not bo renewed. By tnlting that 

nction tho commissioners commit themselves 

to their new policy and to show 

that this was not intended as a punishment 

for the particular offenso that 

brought the saloon before tho board, it 

was shut down for ono week besides. 

This sentence commences today. Notice 

will also be served on Sasaki that his 

license will not be renewed, in' order 

that he may sell out to someone eligible 

to bold a license. 

Prost Offender. 

The case that impressed tho commission 

with the necessity of this policy 

was that of Sasaki, proprietor of tho 

Prost Saloon. Sasaki was cited to "ap 

pear for Bcrving a man on his premises 

who was not only drunk, but was also 

on the tabu list. It turned out that not 

only had the proprietor been in Japan 

almost ever since tho licenso was 

granted, but that ho had returned only 

when inndo nware by cablo of tho citation 

and was even thou in tho hospital. 

Ilia attorney appeared for him. 

What i3 a Jag7 

Tho barkeepers and assistant manager 

wcro all present nml gave thoir 

side of the case which was to tho effect 

that the man wasn't drunk and 

that they had served directly to his 

friend and not to him nuywny. Fenncll 

who had watched tho man, was not 

only convinced that he was drunk, hut 

produced court records showing that ho 

had been arrested immediately after-jvnrfl- s 

nud had pleaded guilty to the 

charge. 

"1 move that be instructed 

to go out and get drunk himself so that 

ho '11 know in futuro what n jag is," 

snapped Chairman Cooko after four 

different people bad stnted through interpreters, 

that there was no jag in 

cvidcuco whatovor. 

All the Japanese wcro put through a 

vigorous examination aB to their knowl- 

edge of tho law and it wns found that 

they hadn't any. So rank was their 

ignoranco that their own attorney was 

surprised. Tho commissioners made no 

secret of their astonishment and "a 

sice bunch to have a. licenso" was the 

expressed and unanimous opinion. 

"J don't think there is ono Bpark of 

intelligence in tho whole crowd," exclaimed 

one commissioner when tho examination 

was over. 

" Macfarlane Up. 

Macfarlane & Co., by its manager, 

Mr. Aucrbach, then went on tho carpet 

for selling liquor to Ulli, the Kcwalo

Fenncll Jnst week. 1'ennell had 

brought in evidence the Mncfarlane 

books showing n two months' account 

with Ulii in which many items, though

plained the incident by Btating that 

the orders were brought in by tho 

Portuguese driver and that as ho had 

not personally inspected tho books his 

suspicions had not been aroused. Tho 

board accepted his explanation, but 

warned him that thcro would bo trouble 

ahead if it ever occurred again.

There Ib another Smith in tho Whito

of the tragedy becomes more and more apparent. Last night, 

after a careful rechecking of the list of those saved and a comparison 

with the lists obtained from Liverpool by cable of all who were 

aboard the liner, the White Star officials announced their estimate 

of the dead at sixteen hundred and thirty-fiv- e, which includes those 

who died of fright or exposure after being taken off the sinking 

vessel in the lifeboats. 

Bit by bit the events of those fearful few hours, between the time 

when the iceberg ripped the death gash through the steel side of the 

liner and the time the remnants of her company were taken aboard 

the Carpathia, are being learned, and into the many tales of heroism 

are creeping the few incidents of cowardice and of error .of judgment 

that must be inseparable from a castrophe of the Titanic nature. 

In contrast to the heroic words of Captain Smith, megaphoned 

through the uproar when the first intimation of panic was observed 

"Be British, my men," comes the explanation of J. Bruce Ismay,. 

chairman of the board of directors of the White Star line, a survivor,, 

as tcTwhy he is one of those ashore when so many of the 

regular-passenger- s 

of the linerwent to a watery grave. "A boat was being: 

lowered. It was half empty, and I got into it," he says. 

HELD BACK BY EBVOLVEBS. 

That thero was room in tho Ufoboats for more than the number saved, as 

intimated by tho statement of Chairman Ismay, is tho charge made by Mrst 

Emil Taussig, who declares that her husband and Henry Harris, tho theatrical, 

magnate, wero prevented from entering tho boat in which sho was placed, although 

it was not filled. Her husband and Harris, sho says, were held Daofc 

at tho points of revolvers, in tho hands of ship's officers. 

DESOLATE BRIDES. 

Aboard tho Titanic when sho sailed from Liverpool woro twenty-on- o couples 

upon their honeymoon. Of tho twenty-on- o brides, so happy a few days ago, 

twenty aro now widows. Only ono bridegroom was saved. 

Tho report yesterday that Captain Smith might havo shot himself beforo-hi- s 

vessel plunged into the depths aroso from a statement made by Mrs. Qcorg 

Widoner, who declares that sho saw 'one of the officers of tho linor blow onte 

his brains shortly after tho Bmall boats had cast off. 

VESSEL BROKE IN TWO. 

Just boforo thor fatal plungo of tho liner, say tho eyewitnesses, the great-steupended 

and tho Titanic hung for several minutes with three hundred t eot-o- f 

her bulk in tho air, her lights blazing far abovo tho lovel of tho water into-whichor 

bowB wero buried. Thon, with "a great ronding, tho mammoth halt-buckland 

tho Titanic crumpled in the middle and sank. TJp to tho timo l 

upended, tho ship's band continued to play In the saloon."" 

Captain Rostron, of tho Carpathia, in a statement given out yesterdajr 

beforo his vessel sailed, praised tho pluck of tho women rescued by his crow. 

Despito tho heartrending incidents of tho wreck, with their sons and husband 

drowning before thoir eyes, and tho hardships experienced during thoso dreadful 

hours when they woro afloat in tho lifeboats, waiting for help to roach .thenv 

tho women displayed the greatest herdlsm. 

Beforo tho special committee of tho senate, which is hero holding an investigation 

into tho causes responsible for tho record catastrophe, Captain 

Rostron told a dramatic tale yesterday morning. The first intimation aboird 

tho Carpathia of tho torriblo happenings nearby camo at thirty-fiv- o minntc 

after midriight, when tho distress call of tho Titanic wireless operator was 

picked up. As soon as he could answer tho call and learn tho exact location 

of tho foundering liner, ho ordered full steam ahead and mado direct for the 

spot. Beforo the Carpathia reached the scene of tho wreck, the Titanic had. 

disappeared. Tho first 'boatload of survivors were taken aboard at ten minutes-aftefour 

Surfday morning. Tho last lifeboat was picked up four hours later, 

later, after which the Carpathia cruised up and down in search of other possible 

survivors. 

As his vessel passed through tho waters which bad just closed over sixteen 

hundred pcoplo, an Episcopal clergyman, ono of his passengers, recited th 

words of the burial service, in the prayers of which the hundreds aboard tli 

Carpathia joined. 

Captain Smith of the Titanic played the hero during the awful disaster, 

according to the stories told by tho survivors yesterday. He died gallantly-afte- r 

placing all the women in tho boats except those who refused to leave their 

husbands. 

An impending panic was averted by Captain Smith's terso megaphoned! 

command: "Bo British, my men!" 

Col. Archibald Oracle was one of tho last to leave tho ship aa she tooif 

her final plunge. Just as sho was disappearing he dived from her side and 

swam to ono of the rafts whore some twenty others stood fon-fou- r 

hours, not daring to movo for fear of capsizing. i 

All of thorn repeated tho Lord's prayer in unison. This they did over and! 

over again, 

Maj. Archie Butt, military aid to President Taft, helped a woman friend 

Into a boat, tucked blankets around her, asked her to give bis regards to Ms 

frionds, and then stepped back on the Titanic. It was the last seen of th

WASHINGTON, April 20. Tho Hydrographlc Offico yesterday issued Instructions 

shifting tho lane for ocean liners plying between New York and 

Boston and European ports ono hundred and eighty miles south of the former 

regultr route. This adds a few miles to the course, but misses the wont or 

the fogs. 

Senator Isidor Rayner of Maryland yesterday attacked J. Bruce Isany, 

chairman of the White Star line. He declared that Captain Smith was undoubtedly 

acting under the orders of Ismay in speeding up his engines to mate 

a record trip for the Titanic on her disastrous maiden voyage. 

NEW YORK, April 10. The senate conunltteo investigating the TiUnlff 

dlsaster today summoned J. Bruce Ismay before it to testify as to the wreck. 

Ismay was visibly nervous under the questioning of the committee as to 

the facts of the tragedy. He wag asked as to the circumstances under whlcfe 

he himself left tho Titanic and whispered that a boat was being lowered, half-empt- y, 

and he got into it. He said he will court the fullest inquiry and declares 

he has nothing to conceal. Ho gave the details of the voyage. 

Ismay said that the Titanic 'a engines were designed to run eighty 

rovola-tions 

and were only turning seventy-fiv- e at the time of the crash. The Titanic 

carried gear for sixty boats, but only twenty boats were actually on board, 

which, Ismay testified, fulfilled the law. 

Captain Rostron of the Carpathia, which picked up hundreds of survivors 

of the disaster, followed Mr. Ismay on the stand. 

In statements today the Whito Star company disclaimed responsibility for 

the wreck, declaring it an "act of God." 

A fresh sensation occurred today when it was learned that the surviving' 

members of the crew hod been smuggled off the Carpathia and held incommunicado 

beforo the vessel cam to New York. The crew Will sail soon for Europe. 

The surviving officers will testify before the senate investigation committee. 

Many survivors, in hospitals from the shock, are improving.

HARD FIGHT AHEAD 

Roosevelt Must Carry 

Every Big Delegation: 

for Chance. 

President Taft, or any other candidate, 

requires 540 dolcgntes in tho coming 

national convention to secure nomination- 

To date, according to tho best 

figures available, tho President has 

pledged to his support 3G8 delegates; 

Colonel Booaovclt has 189; Senator 

thirty-six- , nud Texas with forty. 

Of tho 483 delegates yet to be chosen 

President Taft must get 151 to have a 

majority over all others, while Colonel 

Boosovelt must securo 351, or nearly" 

twice as many more than ho already 

has. It is conceded that the President 

will cany tho conventions in Arkansas, 

Maryland, North Carolina and West 

Virginia, giving him a total to count 

upon from theso States of seventy-fou- r 

and leaving tlio number he has to fight

to fewer than e'ghty. 

La Follotto's Bunch. 

Senator La Folletto will undoubtedly 

securo some of the California delegates 

and will cut into Roosevelt's 

strength in tho other western States. 

It is inconceivable now that tho 

will have any prospect for the 

nomination, and his delegations will be 

wnng 'cither tb Taft or to Roosevelt 

after the first ballot, if there be any 

necessity for more than one. At the 

resent timo it seems probable that La 

f'ollette will support Taft rather than 

Roosevelt, and in any close contest tho 

majority of whatever La Toilette 

may-eecur- o 

in tho way of delegates can bo 

added to the Taft lists. To win over

OFF HER C01RBLY 

ASSAILANT ALONE 

Omacki Suehiro is the blind daughter 

of a Japanese mill workeT on tho 

Kcalia plantation, Kauai, soventeen, 

pretty and, in spito of her afliction, 

well able to take care of herself. A 

liitlo mora than a week ago she was 

tho victim of a cowardly -attack 

by a 

certain Korean gambler and general 

ne'er-do-wel- l, known as Pok Chan Oik, 

and who is now bound over for investigation 

by the grand jury. 

While Omachi was working in tho 

washhouso adjacent to tho Japanese 

quarters, Tuesday, April 0, th,o Korean 

crept up behind her and seized her 

around tho waist. Thu girl, handicapped 

by her blindness, struggled violent-l- y 

to free herself and, in spitd of tho 

assailant's threat that ho would kill her 

with, a knifeif. she opposed him, sho 

overpowerod him for a moment, broko 

away and fled to tho house. Thoro ho 

overtook her and forced her into a 

room. Again she escaped him and by 

virtue of her familiarity with the 

room fied to the lanai and took Tefuge 

with her dog who was chained up in 

the yard. A Portuguese boy, who was 

climbing in a mango tree, hoard tho 

girl's cries and ran into iho yard, 

whoreupon tho cowardly Korean lied. 

The news spread rapidly 'and that 

same night the Koreans of the settlement, 

as much aroused by the outrage 

ns tho rest of the community, informed 

tho polico that a man who 'answered 

tho description of tho blind kirl's assailant 

was hiding in their settlement 

and was packing his belongings. He 

was captured without difficulty, given 

a hearing tho following day before

Thirty-Si- x Cossack Immigrants Held a Month, 

Because No One Could Understand Their 

ComplaintsCostly Mistake. 

Thirty-si- x Russians sat, impatient for 

a month or more becauso a man who 

thought ho could talk Bussian and 

whom tho immigration authorities 

could talk Russian was not fitted 

to act as interpreter. During that time 

tho local representatives of tho federal 

government were paying tho expenses of 

these thirty-si- x people at the immigration 

station, paying tho salaries of several 

men to deal with them and cabling 

to Washington in their dilemma. This 

is the story which tho immigrants told 

yesterday through an Interpreter who 

could speak their language and understand 

their complaints. 

Thero is a certain limit to oven Bussian 

patience and there are certain features 

of western immigration methods 

which do not appeal strongly to the 

little colony of newcomers from Siberia 

who were recently released from, tho 

federal immigration station. Theso people 

have decided that so far as expressing 

indignation, wrath and sorrow 

in Honolulu is concerned Bussian is 

about as useful ns Hittite. Tho story 

they tell of their trials in making themselves 

understood, in telling how they 

camo hero and why they came, explains 

thoir exasperation. 

It seems that the man who was assigned 

tho work of interpreting tho 

fluent Russian of "these Cossacks, who 

had already suffered much en route, 

was a Polo who had understood Russian 

at somo remote period, who believed 

that ho still had a grip on the intricacies 

of the sister language and who 

decided to have a shot at it anyway. 

Of course tho immigration people did 

not know whether ho was talking 

Polish, Slavok. Lithuanian, Russian or 

Servian. It all sounds alike and it all 

sounds equally bad, hut the poor Russians 

soon learned that whatever be was 

talking it was not Russian. In soma 

fashion they understood his questions, 

but they soon saw that he did not understand 

their nnswers. This brave 

boy went through with it just the samo 

and said tho things that sounded likely 

and fitting. 

Sad Misunderstanding. 

It was believed that tho thirty-si- x 

pcoplo who came over hero on tho Nilo 

after skipping out of Russia without 

bidding an official farewell, wero assisted 

or contract laborers and while 

they were being investigated tho whole 

party just had to sit about and wonder 

what it was all about, for it was not 

until yesterday thnt they understood 

why they bad been held and what was 

wanted of them. The interpreter 

had never been able to tell them 

and they are by no means a stupid 

party. Now that they are in tho territorial 

hands and have had an opportunity 

to bear and speak their own language 

their trouble are evaporating 

and tho whole party will ho off to Maui 

or Hawaii within a week. 

According to their account of thoir 

journoy and tho trials en voyage, the 

whole party had to leave the Czar's 

empire without passports, becauso no 

more are being issued, and every man 

woman and child of them is liable to 

five years imprisonment ir iioy return. 

Ono lad was a soldier and deserted to 

join tho party, several of tho boys are 

liable for military servico and would 

bo dealt with in summary fashion if 

they returned. Thoy aro all just a 

trifle nervous about their status hero 

and are not quite suro that the big pi)v 

of the Russian bear cannot reach them 

in Hawaii 

Looted as Well. 

Arrangements were made to "bring 

QqjcV? 

them to Honolulu through a Russian 

agent in tho Far East. It nppcars that 

this gentleman undertook to relievo 

them of all tho spare change thoy had 

about them after they had paid their 

legitimate expenses and made a fine 

haul by takincr from them sums rauc- - 

ing from ten to forty dollars, so that 

when thoy landed hero every ono of 

them was penniless. This was, of 

course, depressing, and then whon thoy 

arrived hero and thaMn-vestigatio- went through n 

conducted through the medium 

of their friend tho "interpreter," 

thoy were not encouraged. 

Thoy aro all Cossacks, most of thorn 

skilled laborers of one sort or another, 

and there is scarcoly ono of them who 

did not sacrifice land, property, household 

goods and other possessions to 

come hero. Abovo all things thoy aro 

going to bo American citizens at once, 

if possible, and, if not at onco, just 

as soon as it can bo arranged. This 

eagorness was expressed to Doctor 

Clark a day or so ago, through Interpreter 

Swadcn, who, by tho way. caiialk 

Russian, and yesterday tho papers upon 

nuicu rue requirements ror citizenship 

wero stipulated woro distributed among 

them. Every boy in the party had to 

have ono of these papers and each and 

every ono had a scoro of questions to 

ask. In addition every youngster wants 

to know how soon ho or sho will bo 

safely ensconced in school, learning 'the 

marvelous English language 

Somo of them aro machinists, others 

arc skilled tradesmen nnd farmers. Ono 

littlo fellow, Gabriel Seroda by name, 

is a sculptor, a stonccuttor, an engraver 

and much besides. In tho absence of 

tools ho is amusing himself cutting designs 

on drinking glasses with a blunt 

necdlo as his only implement nnd has 

done somo remarkably good work.

President Ctignoux had a conference 

with several members of tho .as-

had a right to make such in 

quiries. Lotters will be addressed to 

tho various companies, and will form 

tho basis of a discussion at a future 

mooting of tho association. 

"In tho first place," said President 

GignoiiT yosterdny, ,"J bellevo it is

violators of its own rules. 

"If a disaster should overtnko ono

TO 

In tow of tho tug Hercules tho groat 

gate for tho Pearl Harbor drydock loft 

San Francisco yesterday for Honolulu, 

says a cablo dispatch. Tho gato was 

constructed by tho Union Iron Works 

of San Francisco and is tho largest 

structure of tho kind over built on the 

Pacific Coast. Tho cost of bringing it 

hero will be in tho neighborhood oi 

$15,000. 

Tho tug will take tho caisson directly 

into Pearl Harbor, whero it will be 

hold until tho dock work is completed 

hy tho San Francisco Bridgo Company. 

Tho trip may .tako about ton, er possibly, 

twolve days. 

Tho gate was contracted for delivery 

this spring, it being planned to havo it 

ready sovcral months in advance of tho 

completion of tho last section of tho 

dock. Owing to tho mnny difficulties 

encountered by tho engineers in holding 

tho bottom of tho excavation down, 

nnd tho possibility that thero will bo an 

unusual delay becauso of tho discovery 

of springs at tho bottom, the gato may 

not bo used for a year and n half. 

Tho caisson is 125 feet 4',4 inches 

in length, 43 feet 0 inches in height, 

and will havo a width of fifteen feet 

on tho upper deck and twenty feet nt 

tho stringers. Tho contract prico was 

$147,000 with dolivcry at Pearl Harbor, 

so that tho cost of transportation falls 

to tho Union Iron Works. 

The big gato is equipped with ten 

thirty.inch valves nnd two twenty-inc- h 

valves. Each vnlvo will bo operutcd 

by an independent electric motor, Tho 

valves are to bo used for filling the 

dock. Under ordinary circumstances 

only a few of them will bo used nt one 

time. In cubo of emergency, whore it 

is desired to fill tho dock rnpdlly, all 

tho valves can bo operated at tho same 

time.

ROOSEVELT AND AUTOSUGGESTION. 

Ono of tho strangest franks of tlio human mind is known ns autosuggestion. 

Wo nil suffer or benefit from it nt Ono time or another, and its manifestations 

nro to bo seen everywhere, but particularly In public life. Theodore 

Roosovclt is possibly ono of tlio illustrations t)f autosuggestion of our 

day and generation. Ho appears to move and think and have his being almost 

wholly ns a result of ono or another nutoimpulsc, to which, ltowover, he gives 

another name. 

His latest impulse of that sort he calls a "demand from tho people that I 

offer myself aB a candidnto for the presidency." An n matter of fact tho 

demand, If there bo any such thing, comes directly from Oyster Hay, as n 

glanco nt tho totaled results of tho presidential primaries held to date, show 

plainly enough. With tlirco hundred nnd slxty-sovc- n delegates pledged for 

tho President and ono hundred and oiglity-ninc- , or thereabouts pledged for 

Roosevelt it is easy to see where tho "people's call" Comes in, nnd from 

whence it comes. 

- Recently Colonel Roosevelt, is reported to have carried several Stntes, by 

common consent previously given to Mr. Taft. This docs not necessarily mean 

that tho people of those States wcro for tho Colonel as against Taft. Mr. Taft 

is not popular with tho machino politicians of tho Nation, nnd his calm, states-manlik- o 

conduct in sovcral crises has mado him many of thoso enemies which 

every public man wnnta ns n testimonial to his own fitness to hold the trust 

of tho people. Such "victories" then ns tho results of the primaries in Pennsylvania 

aro to bo seriously discounted when considering their effect on tho 

final count--o- f delegates. Pennsylvania was a surprise, but when we consider 

what politics in Pennsylvania has been for tho last decade, when we remember 

it was said of Philadelphia, "Sho is corrupt and content," the triumph of tho 

Hoosovclt forces ceases to havo significance, and assumes its real Importance 

in tho general political scheme. 

Summing it nil up, it is ovidont that formor President Roosevelt is cither 

d or deceiving. There is no general cnll for him to sit in tho White 

House for another torm, and tho sooner tho autosuggestion from which ho 

appears to bo suffering leaves him, nnd ho settles down in his nicho in Th(o 

Ontlook office tho better it will bo for him, for tho Republican party and the 

Nation as a whole. 

THE FIELD REPORT. 

The Field report of the administrative organization of tho city and county 

has been printed in book form nnd circulated by tho chamber of commerce, 

but tho graphic charts, a most important feature, havo been omitted. Tho 

report, as a whole, has received much publicity, but the chartB, in which 

the various phases of tho administration nro clearly visualized, havo not been 

published. 

Although comparative tables and statistical data show certain results to 

those who are conversant with financial matters generally, they represent only 

aggregations of figures to the ordinary man. Tho graphic charts In tho Field 

report are so comprehensivo that tho exact condition of tho city's activities 

can be seen at n glance and will bo readily understood by all, as thoy en 

discussion by intelligently presenting facts. Now that tho grnphic charts 

submitted with tho l'icfd report havo not been made public, they should bo 

placed on exhibition by tho chamber of commerce, forming the nucleus of a 

local "Budget Exhibit," nnd giving the taxpayors an opportunity to unmis 

takably read tho writing on the wall. 

Such exhibits ebfowliero stimulate public interest in municipal problems 

and encourage the administration in a record for efficiency and progress. Tho 

above suggestion should bo acted upon, in view of the enterprise nlready shiwn 

by the chamber' in first engaging the services of n municipal export to make 

a constructive criticism of our local affairs.

PEACE, PflACB. 

Our friends of tho Democratic persuasion havo boon flattened out by 

tho Link McCandlcss steamroller that thcro ha been little heard from them 

since that mcmorablo moaltlckct convention, dominated by the Generous Gentleman. 

Now, however, there begin td bo murmurlngs of more or less dissatisfaction 

nnd mutiny. Friends of Dill Jarrett, Roso and others, co mercilessly 

subdued by tho g methods adopted by Link, aro beginning to

bo preferable. , , 

Lieutenants of McCandlcss, seeing this gathering cloud, .nre preparing to 

forestall any posslblo lightning It may contain within its' more or lees murky 

folds. Thero aro not lacking thoso who nro willing to assert, with gravo 

faces and a suppressed twinkle, that McCandlcss is not actively fighting Jarrett 

or Rose. McCandlcss may not be, but his firmest friends nnd most tnisted

tho Bourbons nre,and fighting them Sard. 

Jarrett has had tho effrontery to'rcfuso to by tho Democratic 

machine, tlinn which there is nono more ruthless. He would not submit to 

the dictates of tho county committee nnd thereby gave offense in tho scats of 

tho mighty. Ho has done whnt any other man worth big salt would do under 

tho circumstances, nnd when tho local Democracy nrouncs itself, from its present 

supiuo position at tho feet of n bag of dollars, If it ever does, it will realize 

that, In theory at least, it stands for just whnt Jarrett stands for, independence 

of thought and political action. 

And standing for that the Dcmocracj enn not stand for McCnndless. Mc- 

Candlcss represents a system rapidly being outgrown. Ho means nothing in 

tho way of princlplo, nothing in tho way of progress, nothing that has back 

of it a worthy object, nothing but the pure lovo of loot nnd ofllceholding on 

the part of his followers nnd nothing but o'crweening ambition on his own 

part. How then can ho standi 

Tn the mean timo tho Republicans apparently arc getting ready to profit. 

by the growing dissensions in tho Bourbon camp. Talk of difficulty and lack 

of harmony between tho factions is passing away and quiet conferences of

thorn nt least. One charge, of long standing, and still not disproved, is that 

our colleges turn out men, cut nicely to the samo pattern, pretty much as nj

HOW IIILO GOT 

THE SAD NEWS 

CONVENTION DELEGATES TOLD 

HOW IT ALL HAPPENED 

AUSTIN JUMPED ON. 

(Mall Special to Tho Advertiser.) 

IIILO, April ID. It was a sad bunch 

of politicians which returned to Hilo 

last Wednesday after having nttonded 

tho Republican and the Democratic conventions. 

Tho Republicans of whom 

eight from Hilo ntad nine from Walnkoa 

were Kuliio men, felt tho defeat of 

their cnuso bitterly. Thoy charged it 

openly to unfair methods used by tho 

Frcar faction. Tlio Democrats had gono 

to their convention with the hopo that 

thoy might stavo off tho nomination of 

a Delegate to Congress, and in this mission 

thoy had been unsuccessful. Tholr 

sorrow was, howovcr, greatly tempered 

by tho opculy expressed hopo that tho 

outcomo of tho Republican convention 

will carry McCandlcss to victory. 

Austin tho Goat 

Tlio Republican delegation was very 

bitter against Austin, who was denounced 

as a traitor. Desha, Osorio, 

Roso and others denounced him in bit-to- r 

terms. 

Tho fact that Austin voted for Frenr, 

after .having declared many times that 

ho would not do so, is used ns a basis 

tor a prophecy that his political grave 

hns been dug. 

"Tho Hawaii Kuliio delegates stood 

together, nnd nothing could buy or AUTO BUCKS TIES 

coerco them. They were compared with 

tno rocK or uiornltar," said JJcsha. 

"Only ono delegate deserted; I suppose 

you nave lieniu wno it was, 

AND 

Austin." 

SPILLS OUT 

Open Ballot Did It. 

Tlio other delegates corroborate the 

statement that Austin, 

ONE PASSENGER 

from' tho mo 

ment no Jandca in Honolulu, kept away 

from tho Kuliio delegation. They quoto 

him as Eaying that ho favored Kuhio 

ps2-l- L 

learn what Kuhio would do. DtoAba 

said on tho day of his return Ifcfct ho 

thought that he would resign from hb 

LtioislUon as Delegate to Congress. Tbea 

tno uoveraor wouiu nave to can a special 

election to get tho office filled lor 

tho rest of the term, nnd then Kuhio 

would run again for the office in order 

to show that his defeat at the convention 

did not mean that ho was nut still 

the favorite of the people. 

"I know that tho Frcni men nro 

nfraid that Kuhio- - may do just that," 

said Desha. "For J. P. Cooko begged 

me to send a messaco tb Kuhio. nsltinu 

him not to resign, nnd John Oolburn 

told me thnt Cooko had placed his arms 

around his shouldor nnd had begged 

him to tend such a message to Kuhlo." 

Desha said that many Kuhio mon 

had expressed their intention of leaving 

gtho Republican party, but, ho did 

not know how much value to attach to 

these statements. Ho would say nothing 

in regard to what would bo tho 

notion of himself and tho rest of Kuhio 

's friends. They were now waiting 

to hear from Kuhio. Ilo had nothing 

to say at present. 

The delegates also brought homo tho 

report that A. M. Cabrinha and Moir 

had originally, beforo tho primaries, 

nrrnnged a littlo dicker whereby 

was to givo tho Frcar ticket 

his support in cxehnngo for tho position 

ns nltcrnnto to Qhicngo. Tho report 

had it furthor that Cabrinha 

could have had this position, had ho 

not decided, when it enmo to tho battle, 

to stick by his delegation, which 

he did. whereupon Carlsmith was chosen, 

lie voted for Moir, but cxplainod 

to his delegation that ho had promised 

Moir to do so, as ho believed at tho

ASK THE CHILDREN TO HELP. 

Now is the time for all good men and women and children to como to 

tho aid of tho city. This parnphraso of that well known lino means that 

Spring has como and tho moment for cleaning up tho streets and yards of the 

city has arrived. Possibly no other city in tho world is to dependent upon 

its beauty for its growth ns is this of ours, and certain ono would fare far 

beforo finding one with the possibilities for making itself beautiful that Honolulu 

neglects. Cleaning up, with tho memory of tho mosquito campaign 

Mill vivid, should bo a task of tho entire community. If each citizen and 

each 'citiren's wifo and children, will sco to it that tho premises they occupy 

are Kept clean, there will bo precious little left for tho city government to do, 

and that littlo might be done by following the plan recently adopted in tho 

national capital. 

Horo is a plan they havo set afoot in Washington, D. C, a plan of co- -' 

operation between tho health board nnd tho school children and teachers in 

tho city, and it is a plan that ought to work here as well as they believe it 

will there. There aro 51,000 school children in tho city of Washington, and 

by orgnnired and concerted effort on tho part of tho educational authorities 

and the board of health in that city, theso children nro all to assist in tho 

cleaning up of that city. 

It will bo tho duty of tho children to bo obscrvnnt in their respective 

neighborhoods, nnd to tnko note of premises that aro untidy or unsanitary. 

Having observed these conditions, the children report them to their teachers 

and principals; the information is gathered from tho schools by tho health 

board and tho rest is simple enough. It looks like a good and effective plan. 

It is one that interests the youth in municipal cleanliness, which is a matter 

of no mean importance in itself, and without expense or trouble it affords a 

ourvey of tho city which enables tho proper authorities to get the cleaning 

business going in good shape.

ii. DEMOCRATS AND OUR NAVY. 

For many years tho rank and filo of tho Democratic party has in the 

matter of national defence never been so misrepresented as it is today by 

its leaders in tho houso of roprcsontatives. 

During its long minority it was sound to the core. Indeed, no appropriations 

for two or four or more battleships was ever authorized except by tho 

aid of Democrats. As Representative Swngnr Shorloy, of Kentucky, so earnestly 

declared beforo tho navy league, thero has heon no timo during this minority 

when enou'gh opposition on tho sido of tho Republicans if united with tho 

solid vote of tho Democrats, could not havo defeated any naval bill. 

It is not hazardous, then, to assort that Sjeaker Clark, Mr, Underwood 

and others of lessor caliber now dominating the houso aro not carrying out 

tho wishes nor reaffirming tho traditions of this grcnt historic party. Neithor 

hao the Jack-th- c to tho women's colleges, should ascertain it as soon ns possible. If thcro is 

nnu we can it, be no worry. on tho otlier change of fact 

hand thcro is ground made the who by John T. Moir tho of Ha' 

is one of tho best of todny, wo should cortamly know it and it 

as soon maybe. Wo do not send our sons and daughters to universities 

and colleges to bo turned into patterns of social perfection, but to fit them 

to meet and bulvo tho problems of the latter-day 

existence, growing moro and 

more exacting as the years go by. 

Ono of tho first questions to bo asked then, is what wo mean when wo say 

wo want our young men and yong women to bo educated, want them to have a 

collego education. That we want them trained in tho niceties of deportment 

goes without saying. But that, surely, is not the end all and be all-- 

Hipper methods of tho caucus presided over by Mr. Burleson, 

of Texas, nnd crowded with shanghnied members that dodged n rollcall been 

approved by the party, so far ns this may bo gauged by tho patriotic protests 

of the Democratic press. t. 

The decision not to provide battleships for the first timo makes naval 

increase a strict party measure! and introduces tho lamentable feature that 

national defence has nt last fallen into the mire of unreasoning partisanship. 

Even a tyro must recognize that this is poor politics becauso of tho ammunition 

furnished the enemy nnd from tho popular resentment excited. It is a 

'boomerang confession that tho claims of fictitious economy, in tho light of 

tho Sherwood seventy millions for unearned pensions, are superior to national 

protection.

course. Other things should tako precedence. Such things for instance 

as a broad and sufficient knowledge of the master movements of their generation, 

and a thorough grounding in tho history and fundamental principles of 

nil such movements. 

Without attacking the colleges of today or of tho past, it seems certain 

thnt some of tho most necessary movements of tho present havo been hampered, 

because tho college men of the nation stood solidly in the way, unablo to seo 

tho real meaning of the proposed change. Indeed that is one of tho chief 

causes for complaint which tho writer of the beforo mentioned novel has against 

the colleges. Ho says, and ho puts his caso strongly, that the universities of 

America fail to teach men nnd women to think for themselves. In brief his 

contention is that the collegians are forced into a mental rut out of which they 

find it almost impossible to escapo in after life. If this bo true our professors 

hnvo fallen a long way from tho standard of their calling.

SUPPRESSING THE NEWS. 

Vico President Franklin, yesterday admitted, that in his capacity as an 

officer of the International Mercantile1 Marine that he bad lied to the press 

and the public about tho wreck of tho White Star liner Titanic. This is but 

another instanco of a cuBtom all too prevalent with officials in tho position in 

which Mr. Franklin found himself. He gave as his reason for tiTo false state-meat- s 

ho uttered to tho reporters and tho friends and relatives of tho passen 

gcrs on board the Titanic, that ho wanted to "avoid needless alarm." 

Furthermore, whiln ho. wim Inllinir ltiQ fltnrv in thfl . flnnntn . invnstirfntinrf pnill. 

mitteo in Washington, tno wireless mossago sent to tlio captain of tne Uetlric 

by J. Bruce Ismay, ordoring that ship to carry away tho survivoTB" of tho Titanic, 

was in tho hands of the committee', waiting to be read. In tho face of this 

Franklin declared that no effort had been made to isolnto tho crow of tho 

Titanic or prevent its survivors from being drawn into tho investigation. 

Surely Mr. Franklin assumes too much responsibility, even if ho is vico 

president of tho International Marine. Surely tho public has the right of tho 

ono who pays the bills, to know tho details, tho causes and tho results of such 

a catastrophe as destroyed tho Titanic. Such attempts to conceal and befog 

tho issues as havo been mado by Ismay nnd Franklin can do nothing but harm 

to tho lino they pretend to represent. Their nttitudo is that of Vanderbilt 

when ho uttered his famous "public bo damned" phrase. 

Tho public has been damned too long, nnd is getting tired of it. It wants 

to know why it was thnt tho finest ship in tho world was piled upon an iceberg. 

It wants to know who was responsible for tho wreck, if any ono "was, and above 

all it wants to know such details of tho awful nffair, as may show how similar 

disasters can bo avoided in tho future. This tho public has a right to demand 

nnd does demand. America is interested vitnlly in tho Titanic wreck and 

tho consequences that mny como from it, nnd so is Great Britain. It is worse 

than folly for tho men in authority to nttempt concealment. Entirely apart 

from tho legitimate dcslro of all newspapers to print tho news, thoy have, as 

representatives of the public, tho right to tho facts of any caso which may 

affect the people. To hold othenviso, as so many officials aro prone to do, is 

to place oneself on tho sido of thoso who would hide their deeds because thoy 

aro ovil.

from a trip around thaUland 

with tho tallyho and was turning into

Punchbowl streets, when the accident 

occurred.. He was stopping from his

Close personal friends of Commander Edward J. Smith, captain 

of tho hist Titanic, wcro Gcorgo Sherman anil Mrs. Sherman of this 

city, and tho fact that tho man who perished with tho big steamer 

was "their Captain Smith," tho man who cummandod tho Whito 

t Star liner which .took them on tholr honeymoon to Europo, who was 

captain of tho vessels ou which thoy crossed nnd rccrosscd tho Atlantic 

soven times, thoy established yesterday by cabling Now York. 

Mrs Sherman pays tribute to tho British sciuiuln's sturdy char- - 

actor and attrnctlvo personality in tho highest terms, and incidentally 

' recounts much that is interesting of tho heroic master, 

"Ho was a man in a class by himself," said sho yesterday, "nnd 

tho White Star Hue for many years gave him command of the nowest 

ships and of courso tho largest. Ho counted among his friends dozens 

of tho best known Americans, many of whom would cross the Atlantic 

every yenr in whatever ship ho commanded, spond their Eummors 

abroad and return with him, nnd him only, in tho fall. Ono man 

boasted crossing muro than twenty-on- o consecutive years with him, 

Captain Smith was ccuinl. kind hearted and devoted to his frlonds. 

Ho was a loyal Briton and' duty 'was always foromost with hint." 

Ono of Captain Smith's ambitions, according to Mrs. Sherman, wns 

to cross tho Atlantic in a thousand-foo- t steamer. Tho Titnnio wns 

eight hundred and eighty-tw- o feet long. The Sherman's met tho vot- - 

eran commander on their Iranovmoon when tho Whito Star lino cave

might well bo accounted tho luckiest 

man in Hilo. After having made 

monkeys out of the pollco and tho court 

twice, by brenking pa'rolo and skipping 

off to Honolulu, nnd after having beou 

convicted of larceny, this child of 

Tqrtuuo Thursday managed to havo a 

jseutcu.ee of a month's imprisonment, 

lor larpeny, set nside, and to navo a 

"fiiic'of$S(J imposed in its place. Nielsen 

slopped out in the Manna Koa April 

12, nud.so well was ho hidden that tho 

'polk'o bfMuui failed to locato him on 

board. "3Io was, however, apprehended 

by thej Honolulu police, and was 

broughOback to Hllo last weok by 

Sheriff ilarrott. Nielsen appeared bo-fo- 

Juflgo "Wise Wednesday afternoon, 

charged" with larceny' and with contempt 

.of court. 

JulhV'Augustino stated that Niolson 

had asfasil him to let him seo a ten 

dollar'-gol- pieco of tho new issue. 

Julio ijitl so, whereupon Nielsen put it 

in liis packet and walked otf. As ho 

did'notr return,, Julio finally realized 

that this was not a joko, as ho had at 

flrst jnpposcd, and set out to find 

had him arrestedt A hack-drivand 

a bootblack corroborated 

Julio's story. 

Nielsen's Yarn. 

Nielsen told a wonderful yarn, no 

claimed that Julio had aBlccd him somo 

timo previously to teach him to run an 

automobile, and Niolsen had Bald that 

ho would do so for a tuition fee of 

$10. This Julio admitted. On this 

bases Nielsen built up a lengthy story. 

Ho said that tho $10 ho took was his 

tuition fee, that ho pocketed it and 

thanked Julio for it, whproupon ho had 

gono to get a machlno in which to take 

Julio Out riding. Later ho said that ho 

had intended to give Julio back tho 

monoy. On Nielsen 

admitted that ho had dodged Julio all 

over town. Ho then said that ho had 

gono to got $10 from a friendly railroad 

employo in order to repay Julio. 

When asked what had becomo of tho 

original ten spot, ho claimed that ho 

Had hidden it under tho front scat of 

tho Canario machine, fearing that if ho 

kept it ' on him, Julio might tako it 

away from him. When ho was so entangled 

in his statements thnt no other 

way seemed open, Nielsen said that it 

was all a josh, nnyhow. 

Tho trip to Honolulu was also "ox-plaineby 

Nielsen. 

"Thoy liad mo pinchod on tho bench 

'whrrant," lie- - said. "So I thought I 

would tako a pleasure trip to Honolulu 

for a couple of days. I thought I was 

going to get stung, so I thought I 

go to' my mother to got somo 

monoy," 

Judge Wise fined him $10 on tho contempt 

ehargo and imprisonment for a 

month on tho larceny charge. And 

then came the great surprise. 

Tho prisoner said ho did not want to 

go ia jail. And tho court agreed to 

set nside tho sentenco, provided tho 

prosecution would recommend the 

change, Hcen wanted time for thought, 

so the matter wns continued until tho 

following morning. Tho following 

morning Hcen said that thero were 

pcvcrnl other parties complaining of 

Nielsen. Ho thought tho original 

ceiitonco wjib surprisingly lenient, and

The labors undertaken by one

The Clilnnnian 'a banana patch was

making nn educational tour of theso

"Thtf only thing you can do with 

th's patch if you ever hope to get any 

bananas into California, " said tho hor. 

t!culturit, "is to out it all down and

"No," siiid tho prlontal with 

"mo lub oft scale with a lag."- - 

Tho doctor contemplated tho huge 

patch with hundreds of bunches ready 

to cut, calculated rapidly what it would 

mean to Tub tho scale off tho individual 

bananas and stems in that patch and 

retreated in despair. Just u, day or 

so ago, however, he paid the banana 

grower n second visit and there woro 

the cut bunches, hundreds of them, 

just as clean and free from scale as 

they could possibly be. 

'"How did you do itf" he inquired. 

"Lubbod Mm with a lag," responded 

tliu triumphant one. 

Since then Dr. "Wilcox lias been

Ho says that ho worked for two

Down into tho roll of history will go theso four short words, to live in 

Anglo-Saxo- n memories so long as heroism is honored. With Nelson's battlo 

motto: "England expects every mnn to do his duty," and tho dying words 

of Lawrence: "Don't give up tho ship," the heart-grippin- g words of tho hero 

of the Titanic will rank. 

Nelson issued his reminder of British duty to his men on the eve of his 

last great fight at Trafalgar, but he did not know that death had marked him 

as its shining mark. IIo spolto tu animate his men into a victory lliat all 

knew was to cost many of them their lives, and their cheers, as his words

High up on the bridge of tho greatest passenger vessel afloat, as tho women

and ready to plunge to tho depths of tho cold Atlantic. When a sign of 

panic appeared among thoso gathered upon tho decks, all knowing that when 

tho boats left tho side their last chanco to livo had vanished, Captain Smith 

raised his megaphone to his lips. "Bo British, my men!" camo his call, 

that steadied all below him and which instantly gavo them courngo

It is a good politic:U prophecy that Link McCandless will beat Kuhio at 

tho polls this fall. McCandless has undoubtedly gained many Hawaiian supporters 

and just as undoubtedly ho will havo many haolo supporters against 

Kuhio. Umulrcds of those who Bupportod tho Republican candidate in tho last 

election will not support him again, oven though ho is ."doing his duty" and 

"striving for tho good o Hawaii" and tho other things we aro boing told 

about in nauseating editorials. 

Thero is one way, however, to save Kuhio from a beating and at tho samo 

time movent tho election of McCandless. and only ono way. That is for tho 

Republicans to put up another candidate, ono they will not havo to apologizo 

for, to coax along, to steer from morn to dewy ovo and, after election, "to 

put np with." Thero aro half a dozen good Republicans iu Hawaii vho 

can beat McCandless. Charley Rico is ono of them, as I havo ventured to 

cay before. 

Tho Bystander is not ono of thoso who beliovo that this Torritory has 

to depend upon Kuhio or any other ono man for its political salvation, neither 

am I ono of thoso who bclievo that tho Hawaiiau voters aro going to dcclaro 

a political revolution unless ono of thoir numbor is nominated for congress. 

I know plenty of Hawaiians who aro ready today to vote for McCandless 

against tho alii and I know a lot of others who would wclcomo tho opportunity 

of voting for somo Republican leader other than Kuhio. 

Anyhow, I think it is time that tho Republican loaders began to take 

come steps to beat McCandless, and they can not do it by running Kuhio 

against him.

When a man has two babies, both at tho crawling, match-huntin- age, 

inclined to fall down holes, roll off porches, find tho sharp edged cutlery or 

drink the gasoline, and tho mother decides to desert tho homestead and return 

bo more,, tho progenitor usually finds his hands full to overflowing. Now, 

when this man happens to havo a job which requires ten hours of his undivided 

attention eery day and does not not enough to warrant tho employment 

of a caretaker for his homestead, what is ho going to do with tho youngsters? 

There is no iu Honolulu; ono can not inflict babies on 

tho neighbors every day although it may work for a timo. 

Such a case came up recently at Palnina. A Chinaman was deserted by 

his Hawaiian wife and left with two babies nt tho nursing ago on his hands. 

Ho is a day laborer and can not afford to pay for a houseltcepor, ao ovcry' 

day ho makes a trip up to tho settlement with a baby on each arm and asks 

if they hare found any means of helping him. Palama settlement would liko 

to have a day nursery, as many other institutions about town would if tho 

money were forthcoming, for this is only ono of a hundred Blmilar cases that 

could bo cited by tho.so who work among tho tenement dwellers. Tho worst 

of it is that in moit cases, tho father or mother decides that it is better to feed 

the baby than caro for it, so goes off to work and leaves tho youngster to' 

shift for itself. If tho treasured ono is nt tho bottom of a well when 

they return that is the hand of fate. Tho day nursory is now as .much a, 

part of community lifo on tho mainland as the school and 1 beliovo its addi 

tioa to Honolulu's benevolent equipment would forestall tho hand of fate 

in so many eases that if tho babies aro worth considering tho day nursery 

might also bo worth a little boosting,

Many people here remember when tho steamer Rio went down off tho 

Golden Gate. She was an old tub, with no watertight compartments and sho 

vent down in about twenty minutes after sho struck a rock somewhero near 

tho Golden Gate no one known definitely yet just where sho Btruck. Probably 

no one will ever know. There was somo strenuous criticism of the steamer 

then. "In theso modern days, a vessel should not bo allowed to cross tho 

seas with passengers unless provided with water tight compartments," was 

tho commonest criticism. There was no wireless then morely a foghorn with 

ohieh the poor old Rio tried to summon help. Yet in proportion to tho numbor 

of people aboard sho saved in about twenty minutes as many people as tho 

great, modern, splendidly equipped Titnnic saved in several hours,

It appears from current political discussion that Link McCandless is very 

glad over the defeat of tho Btrictly Kuhio forces, as against tho Taft and Froar 

forces, in tho Republican convention a week ago. A lot of Republicans may 

too beard to say that now they 'will voto tho Democratic ticket. Even on tho 

floor of the convention a shout was hoard, whon tho decisive voto was announced, 

of "Hurray for McCandless." Since then borne of tho rarty loaders 

havo dlarcd that tho popular voto is going to Link. If cablo tolls wore not 

to high, Kuhio would probably havo got a lot of messages from his own 

party men urging him to quit tho party because he lost out in tho convention, 

and to resign as a member of tho delegation to tho national convention becauso 

Trear and some plantation men were his associates. 

It seems to me that tho politicians who proposo this sort of desertion 

ef tbeir party have a very poor idea of the obligation undertaken when thoy 

beeoiue members of a convention and have no conception whatsoovor of party 

pibxlplcv To rter into a convention fight involves tho proportion that if

Two proportions stand out nmid the local discussion of tbo awful Titanic' 

disaster. Ono Is tho appearance in innrllimo history of nome now heroes and 

ii new and greater record than over of Anglo-Saxo- calmnoss and courage under 

stress of danger, and tho other tho appalling failure of tho very latest of all 

modern safety appliances. 

As to tho first, peoplo rccnll the Burgoyno disaster, of which tho horrible 

features were tho fights between men' and women, passengers and crew, for 

plnccs in the lifeboats. Tbo Titanic, going down with her captain on tho brldgo, 

and her officers and crew on duly saving women and children, and a band playing 

to the Inst, presents n splendid contrast. 

As to tho other proposition, I find that Honolulu people, who havo nil 

traveled more or less, are wondering what tho modern "safe" steamers really 

are, Tho Titanic, it wan understood, had instruments which could detect the 

presence of nn iceberg somo miles away, registering its influence, through doli 

cnto instruments watched by those on the bridge. Is tho instrument a failure, 

or is somo officer who was on tho Titanic bridge liable to the awful charge of 

not watching it closely cnoughf Tho watertight compartments woro supposed 

to mnko this vessel safe from sinking. When emergency camo, it was found 

that they couldn't bo closed. Vliy woro they open nt allt Might it not have 

been foreseen that any shock big enough to endanger the vessel might throw 

out of gear the machinery by which these compartments were to be closed? 

The lifeboat proposition is another feature that Honolulnns aro discussing 

Wo arc nil nc'custoincd to seeing tho lifeboats, and watching tho fire drills which 

aro supposed to show how well trained the crews are to save paHsengera in case 

of, emergency. Yet hero is tho Titanic, tho very latest modern steamer of them 

nil, sinking after somo hours of emergency during which thero was certainly 

plenty of opportunity to plnce peoplo in lifeboats, and sixteen hundred people 

drowned. Tho proposition is tho more painful becauso rescue steamers woro on 

the way to tho scene, and just a fow hours was all that was needed to savo all 

on board. Tho wireless, which Pacific Mail Manager Schworin declined to put 

on his steamers becauso he said it was only a "toy of tho passengers" did its 

part. It had steamers racing to tho rescue from several directions. If watertight 

compartments and lifeboats had proved anything near efficient, thero need 

have been no heavy loss of lifo. If tho iceberg-detectin- g apparatus had done 

its work, thero need havo been no disaster at all.

LINK M'OANDLESS. I can not imagino why peoplo speak of a steam

MANAGER BALLENTYNE. Tho new Wilder avenue switch will be 

used today (Sunday) for tho first time. Inbound cars which are standing nt. 

tho Manoa junction when a Punahou-boun- car arrives on the experiment 

station switch, will wait for the town car. This will improvo our service 

very much. I hopo soon to bo nblo to lengthen out tho Lunalilo street switch 

as far as McStocker's. This would also improvo tbo Punahou service. 

EMIL BERNDT. I havo always been a consistent opposer of billboards 

and billboard advertising. A short timo ago I was charged with having per 

mittod billboards to go up on ond of my lpts in Pawan. I did not know that 

my property hnd bcon encroached upon until I was visited by a delegation 

of residents from thnt neighborhood. I gavo immediate orders to have the 

boards removed. I believe wo got better Tcsults from other kinds of advertising. 

Personally, I know it.

of sports. Tho St. Louis boys nre ovcry bit as manly as nro the best ono may

Sugar and Income Tax Legislation 

The most notable recent event in congress has bcon tho passage of the 

sugar and exciso tax bills. The first would mako sugar free. In this case tho 

government would lose nearly sixty million dollars in revenue from tho taxes 

paid to it by tbe importers of sugar. Such n proposition, affecting, as it would, 

our cano sugar industry, nnd tho beet sugar cultivation In seven States, togethor 

with its effect upon Cuba, Porto Rico, Hawaii, and tbo Philippines, should 

recoivo tho most careful treatment. To moke up tbo loss of revenue from 

sugnr, an income tax bill has been proposed. But tho Supremo Court has declared 

a general incomo tax unconstitutional, for lack of necessary apportionment 

among tho population, and tho States aro now considering tho acceptance 

or rejection of tho proposed sixteenth amendment to the Constitution, giving 

congress undisputed authority to imposo such a general tax. Tho Supreme 

Court, bowovor, has upheld tho existing corporation tax as constitutional. 

Hence Mr. Underwood, chairman of tho comxnittco on ways and means in the 

bouse of representatives, has conceived tho idea of extending its provisions, 

nud in this wny to obtain tho practical results of an income tax. law without 

violating tho Supremo Court's ruling, Ho proposed, nud the bouso has now 

adopted a tax, legislatively intended as nn oxciso, tho subject of tho tax to 

bo tho conduct of business, which, according to a uniform line of decision 

by tho Supremo Court, is a proper subject of nn oxciso tax. In brief, then, the 

proposed tax is nn excl.se on tho privilego of doing business. The corporation 

tax was held good becauso corporations havo privileges withheld from private 

citizons, but it is not tho samo thing to sny thaji.it is n "privilego" to do IiurI 

ncss in n partnership or individual capacity. To try to collect tho tax on thnt 

scoro night seem open to defeat in tho courts. Moreover, tbe proposed tax 

does not touch thoso rich men who aro not in business but livo on their pos 

sessions, whatever they may bo; real estate, mortgages, and various securities 

anything but a private business of buying and selling. And yet tho bill would 

seem, as reported, to tax the Incomo of the "business" of boing a lawyer or 

a doctor! Furthermore, the plan of self assessment embodied in the bill would 

bq a premium upon deceit. It remains tu bo seen whether the bill, when ex-- 

amined by the senate, will not bo modified in thiB respect.

The outlying islands have been moro 

than usually prolific in serious accidents 

during the past week, but in only ono 

instance, out of a number of narrow 

escapes from death did any of theso result 

fatally and that was in the caso 

of a deliberate suicide at Makawcli, 

Kauai. 

A certain forlorn Russian, known as 

Sehkelo, who had been out of work for 

some timo and had been applying in all 

quarters for any kind of work until ho. 

last Sunday morning and was instantly 

ground to death. Tbo man was most 

deliberate in adopting this horrible 

form of suicide. Ho stood by the track 

and watched tho engine approach at 

full spcad until it was within a few 

feet of him when ho dived under tho 

wheels. His body was horribly mangled 

and death was instantaneous. 

An accident of a very different typo 

occurred on the llanamaulu road, 

Kauai; tho samo day, when a certain 

citizen of that island who had absorbed 

an unusually heavy Sunday jag rode 

his horse over a high precipice and 

landed at the edgo of tho surf, taking 

down with him a few tons of loose rock 

'and gravel. Ho was granted tho usual 

special dispensation and both he and 

Lis charger escaped without serious in-

T HORNER WINS 

HIS PR0TR1CTE0 FIGHT 

FAMILY AGREEMENT AGAINST 

PUBLIC POLICY, IF IT EVER 

EXISTED, SAYS ROBINSON. 

(From Sun'.-iy'- s Advertiser. 

That tho Homer family agreement, 

if it ever existed, was against public 

policy and that it hadn't been proven 

to exist anyhow, is what Circuit Judge 

Hobinson decided yesterday noon, whon 

the arguments closed in the caso of 

Horner versus Horner. Tbo injunction, 

whereby Albert Horner sought to 

prevent Robort Horner from soiling 

shares of Kukainu plantation to Davies 

and company, was dissolved. 

The court did not say whether if tho 

agreement hnd been proved to oxist, it 

would bo sustained, but held that it 

hnd not been proved, and strongly intimated 

that even if proved it would 

not be enforced. Exceptions were 

noted bv Thompson & Wilder for Albert 

Horner, and the case may bo appealed. 

Tu ruling on the caso Judgo Robinson 

eaid: 

"Agreements of tho class to which 

tho agreement referred to in tbe bill 

lelougs, arc not favored in law as a 

rule, and a long lino of decisions, woll 

considered by eminent authorities, and 

liv sjstems of jurisprudence, uowit to 

tho present time, havo found agreements 

of that character as being 

against public policy, except in certain 

cases. 

"Now, in this case, if it bad been 

the intent of tho original partner to 

limit tho ownership of tbo 

interest transferred nnd assigned by

Two years ago Halmorl. leader of tho 

labor party, was one of the men instrumental 

in bringing on tbo big street 

railroad strike among tho Filipinos, a 

Btrlko which tied up tho systems. He 

war arrested for inciting the men to 

striko and had bis turn in tho courts. 

Some tlmo ago rumors reached tbo 

labor party that tbo Filipino laborers 

brought to Hawaii to work on tho plan; 

tations wcro not being well treated) 

nnd that tboso who wcro sick and in 

need of attention in hospitals, were not 

given much attention, and wcro allowed

a political issue, with the result that 

Mr. Balmorl waB selected to como to

were absolutely unfounded," Baid

Saturday, April 13, whilo coupling

was taken to his home in a locomotivo 

and it was later discovered that his 

hip bone waB fractured. 

On the samo fntal Sabbath which 

was marked by the Russian's suicido 

on Kauai and the spectacular rido of 

tho inebriated onq, two serious automobile 

accidents occurred on Mani. 

Joo Puu, a Hawaiian boy who was 

learning to ride a bicycle on tho Toad 

between Wailuku and Kahulni, became 

panic stricken at the sound of nn automobile 

horn behind him and Bwerved in 

front of a car driven by Ned Nicholas. 

Tho wheels passed over his abdomen 

and lie was conveyed to tho Wailuku 

hospital where for several days the attendant 

phvsicians despaired of saving 

his lifo. His condition had improved 

somewhat on Thursday, however, and it 

is now believed that ho will recover. 

In a similar way a Japanese cyclist 

fell under a car driven by Sam Wcllcr 

on the road between Kahului and Pain. 

In his caBCj however, tho bicycle suf- 

fered the greater damngo and the 

auto-mobili- st 

made reparation by purchasing 

him .a new bieycle. 

John Corrcira, a veteran luna of tho 

Paia plantation was saved from a painful 

death Thursday, April 11, by tho 

prompt action of bystanders. Ho fell 

headlong into a vat of hot tar, hnd tho 

preionco of mind to hold his breath 

and keen his oyes closed and was pulled 

out in timo to escape with a few scalds 

which may possibly result in a slight 

disfigurement! 

would have bcon nn easy matter to havo 

expressed tho idea to be convoyed by 

the agreement in reference to the disposition 

of any interest in tho partnership 

of John M. Horner & Sons by a 

eovennnt running with tho property 

assigned in the instrument. That was 

not done, and the instrument is absolutely 

silent as to any limitation of 

the property assigned nnd transferred. 

It is only fair to assumo that tho parties 

didiu't intend so to limit it. 

"Tboro have been exceptions, it is 

true, where agreements such as that 

icferred to ia tho bill havo been upheld 

by the courts, but thoso havo been 

under exceptional circumstances and 

upon clear and convincing proofj and 

I do not think that tho evidence shows 

in tho caso at bar such exceptional 

circumstances, nor is the proof clear 

and convincing with tho establishment 

of such an assumption. 

"In my judgment tho respondent ia 

entitled to a judgment and decreo of 

this court in accordance 'with tho 

prayor contained in his nnswer; and 

that tbe injunction be dissolved and 

the bill dismissed." 

Tho agreement as testified to by tbe 

plaintiff was that none of the original 

family holders of the stock would sell 

any shares in the corporation to any 

outsider, without first offering the stock 

to other members of tbo family, at the 

price winch any outsider was willing to 

pay. Robert Hornor denied the existence 

of any such agreement. 

Is Certainly Bankrupt. 

John D, Holt was adjudged a bankrupt 

in the federal court yesterday 

morning- - The Territory of Hawaii was 

his principal creditor. A short statement 

showed that ho owed in taxes, 

dating back to 1900, tho sum of 

$3073.10, and, owod 1G32.58 to other 

creditors, and had not a cent of assets. 

It took about thirty entries of tho word 

"none" to show that John D. had 

nothing with which to satisfy hi 

creditors, including tbo Territory. Tbo 

tax bills which are set forth as liabilities 

licpin with the sum of $780.10 In 

Ifino and continue for eight years until 

tho sum of $3673 Is piled up. According 

to the petition, there is no real 

estate, no property of any kind, to 

meet the debts.

COMING ASHORE BPLENDH) 

LOOKINQ TARTY. 

(From Saturday's Advertiser. 

Prfeonors for moro than fifty days 

in tho crnmped quarters of tho immigrant 

ship, 102 unmarried men, 

among whom there was no sickness, 

wore landed yesterday afternoon by 

order of the federal authorities and 

housed in the territorial immigration 

station. The gentle souls who nssomble 

about the wire fence of tho old 

to talk tearfully of "tho poor, 

wistful looking people so far from 

home" will receive a shock this morning, 

for a blither, jauntier force of 

handsome bachelors certainly never 

passed through the hands of tho immigration 

authorities. With moustaches 

curled nnd caps at a debonnir anglo 

they showed an inclination to shout 

"buenns tardes" at every man, woman 

and child between Alakca "wharf and 

tho immigration station. 

Laden down with boxes, trunks of nil 

shapes and sizes, bags and blankets, 

they fairly skipped across Alien street 

and filed past tho officials with a nod 

and smile for every one. Tho round 

plush caps, like Highlanders' bonnots, 

the short coats of an absurd cut, and 

tho shapeless shoes, theso merry adventurers 

wear with a rare graco, and 

their entry into Hawaii w.as more liko 

tho advent of picknickers than tho 

coming of forlorn, downtrodden villagers 

ten thousand miles from home. 

Gay Lads Indeed. 

Ten minutes after they had installed 

themselves, the immigration station 

took on the aspect of a bachelor's club. 

They squatted in circles on tho grass 

playing cards, they lounged in tho 

shade and blew smoke rings, somo Bang, 

others gathered in groups and indulged 

in all degrees of Spanish and Portuguese 

humor. It would seem that tho 

emissaries of tho territorial board had 

recruited the beaux and cavaliers of a 

hundred villages gay lads who will bo 

as much at home in Hawaii or in any 

other corner of the earth as they wcro 

"on their native soil. Of courso any 

man who had confined his activities to 

the limited space of an overcrowded 

steamer for neariy two months would 

be inclined to frisk about a little when 

he found himself on terra firma, but 

these soldiers of fortune, without ties or 

responsibilities and nothing in tho 

world but the baggage they carry on 

their backs, are irrepressible under any 

circumstance?. 

. Bond Is Filed. 

The permission to give a bond for 

$30,000 and thereby release tho immigrants 

from confinement on tho ship, 

was received from London this morning 

by T. H. Davics & Co., and the immigration 

authorities at once set to work 

to get the first installment ashore. 

Tho single men were easily disposod 

of, for there had been no illness among 

them and throughout tho voyage they 

had been quartered apart from the 

families. The matter of examining 

them and passing them was quickly accomplished 

and they are now in territorial 

quarantine, in tho immigration 

station. The larger task of passing the 

men, women and children still on board 

the Harpalion will be taken up. today 

and they will bo landed as rapidly as 

possible. The sick who were placed In 

the hospital on quarantine island Thursday 

are still in federal quarantlno and 

will bo under federal jurisdiction until 

the exact nature of somo of tho cases 

is known. Others, who aro afflicted 

with mild diseases not quarantinablo 

under the federal regulations, will 

shortly be turned over to tho territorial 

board of health. 

One of tho nine babies born en route 

died Thursday night of malnutrition. 

Other than this no new cases of sickness 

have been discovered.

ATTRACT ATTENTION 


For several dnys past tho appearance 

upon tho streets of n most distinguished 

looking couple, of magnificent 

bearing, foreign aspect and that 

raro but indefinable air of eleganco 

which is supposed to characterize tho 

old world nobility, have attracted no 

little attention. 

Monsieur is a tall, broadshouldcrod 

man with carefully groomed, upturned 

moustaches, a soldierly bearing and is 

attired in excellent clothes of a decid- 

edly European cut. His eyes are clear

handsome.

TO SUBTRACT IT BXPE0T3 

A LIVELY TRADE. 

Captain F. D. Wnlkor, horo of tho 

famous Wandering Minstrel wreck on 

Midway Island, claims to bo tho discoverer 

of ft process of deodorising 

shark liver oil, which ho says nakn 

tho oil a highly valuablo medicinal 

product. Walker, who is over seventy 

yoars of ago, spent n largo part if last 

year at Kawathac, in the shark 

His health failed and for a timo 

ho was in a vory sorious condition. Ho 

says that shark oil brought him back 

to his prcsont lively stato, nnd that 

when pioplo got to know tho nu'dicinal 

and nutritive value of tho oil, shnro Is; 

going to bo a vory lively domand for 

sharks. "Aly attention wns dirmtcd 

to tho sharks somo yours ago when I 

was in British Columbia," said tho 

captain. "I was thoro to look over tho 

dogfish business, with tho intention of 

storting n guano company to furnish 

fish fertilizer to tho sugar plantations 

on these islands. A physician drew my 

attention to tho groat medicinal valuo 

of tho oil. Ho informed mo that in 

over thirty yoars of observation ho hnd 

been amazed at its nutritivo and euro,-tiv- o 

proportios. 

"As ho hnd travolcd all ovor tho 

Northwest, boing attachod to some 

mission society, also tho Hudson Bay 

Company, ho had had amplo opportunities 

to got valuablo information. Ills 

regard for tho oil of tho liver of tho 

dogfish was very great. 

"Though tho oil was prepared 

roughly with tho stench not romovod, 

tho Siwnsli Indians, in cases of sickness, 

drank it frooly, with tho most gratify-in- g 

results. 

"Tho doctor said that if tho oil could 

bo deodorized, wo would havo tho most 

vnlunblo artlclo in tho pharmacopoeia 

of tho world. 

"Tho flesh of tho dogfish contains 

too much oil of n worthless character 

to mako a fertilizer for sugar. Tho 

shark is as a fertilizer moro valuable, 

thero being vory littlo oil in tho flesh. 

"The oil of tho shark liver is superior 

to that of tho dogfish, and as I have 

discovered tho method of deodorizing 

tho oil, I think I Imvo fulfilled tho doctor's 

wish. 

"Tho Hnwniinn shark is tho best 

species known, being of Inrgo b!zo, well 

fed, n fact woll proved by tho sizo of 

its liver."

MANILA, March 20. Tragody stalk 

ed aboard tho Pacific Mail steamer 

Korea this morning and then stalked off 

again. This nftornoon when the Korea 

pokes hor noso in tho direction of 

Hongkong the pulsing engines will hum 

a song of peril passod, to tho grateful 

cars of Captain Fisher, who is positive 

now that his ship's family of ono hun-dro- d 

will not desert tho ship at Hongkong. 

Ono hundred strong, nil Chinese, is 

this particular family. And tho motif 

of Why Thoy Almost Loft Thoir Happy 

Home, which is, tho titlo of tho bob-tailtragedy, 

abides in a lono kilo 

of morphino, Which brought about tho 

arrest of three of tho Korea's erew and 

incidentally brought $001 into thq ZX 

ernment strong box. 

A customs inspector noticod a bulga 

in tho raizzen pockot of Socond Stew 

ard George Mitchell, when that --officer 

walked down tho gangplank of stho 

Korea Sunday. Tho inspector's haftd 

followed his kilo cyo and MitchollH 

pocket yielded morphine. Mitchell was 

arrested on a chargo of illegal possession 

of morphino. 

A quick investigation of tho case disclosed 

tho fact that Mitchell had boon 

asked by two Chinese of tho Korea's 

crow to bring tho drug nshore. Mok 

Took San is ono of tho Chinese and ls 

also No. 1 China boy aboard .tho Korea, 

which moans that ho is in charge of

Mok and Ching wero arrested on a 

chargo of illegal importation of morphino. 

Mok and Ching pleaded not 

guilty Mitcholl pleadod guilty. This 

morning, counsel for tho Chinoso filed 

a demurrer, on tho ground that tho complaint 

drawn up iu tho offlco of the 

prosecuting attorney was irregular. 

For a timo it looked as though the 

triol of tho cases would bo postponed 

until Snturday. 

Captain Fisher asked that tho cases 

bo brought to trial this morning, as his 

boat sails this nftornoon, and as bis 

entire Chinese crow would loavo tho

Scores of Tests. - 

Engineer Smith Iuib worked y 

in his mixtures of cemont 

nnd sand to find ono that would with- 

stand tho notion of tho waters of Pearl 

Harbor. Sebrcs of blocks' havo been 

moulded and sent to. the city to bo 

tested nt tho Collego of Hawaii. Ho 

worked every of sd tho county attornoy

Pacific Coast went into his block tests,,: 

and yesterday camo tho result. Tho 

workers will now rcdoublo their efforts 

to catch up lost time, which lias neces- 

sarily been chalked against them duo 

to tho many delays. 

F. B. Smith, the engineer of tho 'con 

tracting company, is now supposed toj 

at Santa Cruz whero laboratory 

tests aro being inndo ,of water from! 

Pearl Harbor which was sent up in ino 

Sioira. A naval officer from Maro Isl- 

and is said to havo been to 

watch tho tests in the laboratory, 

whero it was hoped tho peculiar 

chemical quality in tho wator would 

bo determined. 

Somo of tlio Troublos. 

Tho first section of tho drydock, 200 

feet long, was enclosed around tho false; 

cribbing, and the pumps were started, to 

reduce tlio wator level last year. Aftor 

going down about feet it was 

seen that tho sheath piling was 

almost imperceptibly, but from an en- 

gineer's standpoint, sufficient to cause 

alarm. The pumps wore stopped, .and 

divors sent down to ascertain tho cause, 

Thoy reported that as tho water lqvo 

in tho section wont down tho bottom 

of tho basin had a tendency to rise; 

This was tho first problem confronting 

tho engineers. 

It was decided after some investiga- 

tion to "pin" tho bottom down with 

piles, for which job congress allowed 

an additional $157,000. Tho piles were 

brought from Puget Sound and 

driven into tho bottom, leaving 

heads sticking up. Then tho Tromy 

system of pouring concrete was ndopt-ed- . 

This was the of funnels which 

down to tho bottom. 

was 

into tho top, nnd as it emerged 

from tho tube, it was caught and 

spread by divers. Tho work went on 

until a lew montns ngo wiicn it was 

d 

that tho bottom was sufliciently 

capped to pump out tho water so that 

tho remnindcr of tho work could he 

dono in tho "dry." The water level 

was reduced within n few feet of the 

concrete lnyor when more leaks wero 

discovered, and it was then found that 

portions of tho concrete wero breaking 

away. Tho section was allowed to 

again and divors went down. Workmen 

then broko oil tno decomposing pans 

nnd a new concrete was laid on. To 

break up somo tho portions a now 

kind of pick-dri- ll was employed, work- 

ing somewhat on tho lines of n 

hammer. Theso gouged out big chunks. 

Decomposed. 

Then it was discovered that the con- 

creto was apparently decomposod. It 

was later decided that thcro wah n po- - 

leulinr chemical quality in the water 

winch "mushed" tlio concrete, i'lunl 

ly. Sir. Smith was called to San Fran 

cisco, tho headquarters of his linn, for 

a consultation. Meanwhilo the naval 

engineers wero busy putting cement 

nnd sand together and making minute 

Tho dock is to bo 1000 ft'et long, 

congress within the past days hav- 

ing authorized that length, which will 

in alio it two hundred feet longer

Tho great gate for tho dock is al- 

ready on tho way hero from San Fran- 

cisco in tow of tlio tug Hercules. It 

Is a mighty caisson, tho largest ever

CLEVER SKIN GAME;

McDUFFIE TICKLED. 

Arery clover was the skin game which 

landed Jim Kawaauhau in tho city jail 

yestorday, but no less bumpy wjb the 

thump with which ho lauded. Jim work- 

ed his littlo game for just $2.25 which 

was quite a modest sum, particularly 

when ho might have reversed Ins trick 

and doubled the reward. His gamo ran 

about this way: 

Jim was discharged from tho fire de- 

partment, following suspicious which 

nroso on tho disappearance of money 

about tho central station. During his 

service tts a fireman, however, ho learn- 

ed tho ways of tlio department well, 

lie knew among other things that thcro 

was a firmen named Bell at, the Makiki 

station, who hada brother at tho central 

station. When he becump- short of 

cash ouo day last week, lio callod up 

the Makiki station Bell and informed 

him that this was his brother. 

"I am sick," was the information ho 

dispensed, "and have to go to the doc 

tor. "Will you lend me two dollars if 

I send a messenger up after "itf I will 

wait for it at tho corner of RichnrdsJ 

and Borctania." 

The brother hastened to bo philan- 

thropic and gave a messenger two dol- 

lars and paid the quarter fee. Tho 

messenger had answered a call which 

was supposed to havo como from tho 

Makiki lire station, but which had orig- 

inated with tho wily Jim. Jim met 

him,said his nomo was Bell, and re- 

ceived tho money. He missed an ar- 

tistic possibility by not calling jip tho 

Boll nt tho central station nnd going 

through the same procedure. 

Tho cliihax came yesterday morning 

when the Slnklkt Bell called Jip tno 

central Bell and asked him how ho 

was getting along and did ho get the 

money all right I A fight started right

ever, nro working on figures that will 

undoubtedly make some hard fought 

contests before tho tax appeal board. 

It was stated ycstoTday by a repre-

there were few if any contests in sight, 

far as estato is concerned, on SL.Co.""'.!!!I

to bo a contest in the courts, however,

isstio is mado as to property adjoining 

Kainehamclin Schools, but not used 

directly for school purposes. Tho ques- 

tion which will bo submitted to tho 

courts, in a friendly suit, is as to 

whether tho cstato should pay taxes on 

this property on its actual value as 

losideneo property, or bo oxempted on 

the ground that it is school property.

Bishop Estate's Position. 

The position tnken by tho Bishop 

estato is shown in part by a circular 

letter sent out to all its lessees, on all 

.tho islnnds. It invited tho lessees to 

notify tho estato if they wished to ap- 

peal from the increase in assessment of 

their taxes. Bishop estato leases all 

contain provisions that the holders of 

the laiuls,shall stand taxes, etc., so that 

it is up to the peoplo who have leases 

to decide whethor there shall bo appeals 

or not. 

Tlioro is some time yet, in which ap- 

peals can be filed, but it was authorita- 

tively stated yesterday that, the ap- 

peals on Bishop fitatc property,, so far 

in sisht, wore few. 

Tt is lelieved other property 

holders are preparing to make appeals

LEAVES HIS HOME,

FATHER HASN'T TIME TO PLAY 

SO WIDER WORLD TEMPTS 

YOUNG INVESTIGATOR. 

.Burdened with the onerous duties of 

a three-fol- office "ns captain of the 

mosquito campaign, adviser of the 

board of health and head of Ihd leprosy-investigatio- n 

work in Hawaii, . Dr. 

Georgo W. McCoy has committed tho 

greatest criino known by his four-year-ol- d 

son. Ho has failed to spend that 

glorious Saturday afternoon that 

been baby's birthright always, and 

failed twico as the manifold things 

that occupy daddy's timo draw him 

away towards nil of the eight Islands. 

So yesterday, hi's youug life sadden- 

ed already by ennui, Baby McCoy, his 

shoulders bowed with all his four and 

a half years, loft his father's homo on 

Young street. His littlo had hard- 

ly pattered around tho corner before 

the loss was discovered. Tho prodigal 

had choseu seven in the morning as 

tho hour of his departure, so daddy as 

well his mother sta.rted at once in 

pursuit. But alas, they rounded 

wrong corner, whllo Baby wandered 

still further. After .an hour or so the 

polico wero sent for and Chief o 

arrived with n squad of his men, 

A houso-to-lious- and t 

search was commenced and the sun 

climbed towards the meridian and all 

tho shooters frisked up their stingers 

aud frolicked but the doctor was not 

paying attention to shooters. 

Pretty soon tho big cliiof met a 

small boy, a little gutter-snip- o he has 

arrested three or four times for steal- 

ing pigeons. 

"Say, son," ho asked him, in smooth, 

paternal tones, "havo you seen a lit 

tlo kid nuout 

wandering off all by himself f" 

The gutter-snip- looked at him sol- 

emnly and a great idea entered his 

head. 

"You bet vet lifo I did. I was iust 

with him up at Manoa Valley, Ho is 

up there all nlonc," lie cried with on 

tuusiasm. i 

So the chief whistled for his men 

and the police auto mado tracks for 

.Manoa while the urcluu went behind a 

billboard and danced a highland iliug, 

But in tho meanwhile, at just twelve 

five 

lcled excitement, another phyeieinn, 

passing down King street in his auto, 

recognized tho youug McCoy drowsing 

boro him back to his 

F.wa 

Pacific 

Pretty boou the chief cuuieb(tek all 

covered with dust aud cuss wordsjtjmt 

had slopped over and the 

small wanderer waving a club like a 

big ogle. 

"Shall I tako him to the polico sta- 

tion" ho asked Mrs. SlcCoy, 

"AVJmt do they do with littlo boys 

at police stntiout" asked Mother, 

"Send 'em tho reform school and 

inako 'em feed roared the chief. 

But Baby hid his face in tho 

best place of all for small 

his mother's lap, and the cnlef, in- 

stead hint up altogether, 

to one of men to ruu 

oi t and catch that gutter snipe who 

used to steal pigeons.

A WIRELESS SYSTEM 

SENATE COMMITTEE ON NAVAL 

AFFAD1S AGREES TO AUTHOR- 

IZE BIG APPROPRIATION. 

AVASinNGTON, April 22. Tho sen- 

ate committee on naval affairs has 

ag"reed to authorize $1,000,000 for a 

world-wid- e wireless system for tho 

United States'' Navy. 

A board of naval olliccrs, acting fop 

tho bureau of steam engineering, re- 

cently submitted a report on tlio proj- 

ect, nnd its adoption will moan that 

tho government will have the Pacific 

covered by wireless day and night, and 

that no matter where an American ves-- ' 

sol may he she will never be out of com 

municatlon with the navy department 

at Washington. Tho cost of tho sys- 

tem as planned by the "naval board 

will bo about $1,000,000, aud the wire- 

less companies havo already submitted 

plans and estimates. Tho system could 

bo operated without the danger' of priv 

ate corporations obtaining possession of 

departmental Bocrcts. 

Secrecy could be obtained by the uso 

of codes. Experiments have shown that 

by changing the wave lengths of tho 

different stations communication can be 

had through interference of any kind. 

The code of the navy is secret, aud 

is kept to by changing. Nono but com- 

missioned "officers have access to it, and 

consequently there is littlo chanco of 

its being communicated to tbo general 

outside world. There would be high-pow- 

stations in this system of com- 

munication nt Colon, San Francisco, 

Hawaii, Samoa, Guam nnd tho Philip- 

pines. 

Tho station at Guam would bo espe- 

cially .worth constructing because thcro 

is no cablo there, the end of tho cable 

being over in the Fiji Islands. A sta- 

tion on tho northern end of Luzon 

would control all ships anywhere in 

the North Pacific. The station at Guam 

could relay to Hawaii. Tho latter is 

tho only link the bureau is not ready 

to miarantea for communication at any 

time. It may be necessary lopai u.

satiated with hours of unparal-- i tingoncy is not expected to arise, as
