GENERAL BELL INSISTS ONDEFENSE OF PEARL HARBOR

Submarines and Torpedo-er- s

to Guard Us Pending the Mounting ofLand Batteries.

(Mail Special to the Advertiser.)

WASHINGTON, D. C, February 18. General J. FranklinBell, the ranking head of the army in Washington and chief of theGeneral Staff of that branch of the military service, appeared beforethe House Committee on Naval Affairs before the Navy bill wasTeported on a special confidential mission in explanation of thestrategy of the Pacific ocean to which the Atlantic battleship fleetis going.

General Bell had with him a series of confidential charts show-ing the defenses existing and planned by the War Department forthe proper protection of American interests and explained thesefortifications in detail. Particular attention was devoted to thefortification of Pearl Harbor, as a naval base. The conference was3. rather significant one and was not discussed in detail by membersof the Naval committee after its conclusion.

Following a conference at the White House during which Presi-dent Roosevelt conferred with the Democratic members of theHouse Committee on Naval Affairs and urged them to vote "aspatriots for a large increase of the navy at this time, the confer-

ence at the Capitol was looked upon as being all the more significant.The House Naval Committee" does not deal with military affairs ofthe army and General Bell would not ordinarily appear before thaicommittee. He has nothing to do with the naval estimates, but thecommittee wanted to hear from him as he is the chief authority inthe country on the fortifications of the Pacific Coast, the" Philippinesand Hawaii and as chief of the General Staff is thoroughly familiarwith the plans being worked out both for the development of thedefenses of the Pacific as well as the confidential plans that are con-stantly being worked out in anticipation of future warlike contin-gencies.

General Bell was induced to appear before the committee" onlyafter he was assured that his visit would be treated as absolutelyconfidential. The request that he so appear was made by Repre-sentative Richmond Pearson Hobson, a member of the naval com-

mittee, who is in favor of a very large navy because he believesthat war with Japan is inevitable. General Bell told RepresentativeHobson that he would appear before the committee and talk fullyif guaranteed that his visit would be treated as confidential even tothe extent of omitting the usual stenographic record of his remarks.This promise jvas made and the usual stenographer was absent whenGeneral Bell entered the conference with his great charts of the, Pa-cific and its defenses.

"When Delegate Kalanianaole was re-- fIf offensive operations were underta- -

cently before the Naval committee heurged its members to invite AdmiralDewey or some member of the XavalBoard to appear before the committeeand state personally in an executivesession some of their reasons for the.nigency of the work at Pearl Harborwhich they might not care to transmitto Congress in writing. In connectionwith this suggestion it developed thatCongressman Hobson had ventured in

advance to see Admiral Dewey and oth-

ers who have studied the question, in-

cluding General Bell. Admiral Deweyrecommended Captain John E. Pills-bur- y,

of the General Board, as the man

to represent it, and General Bell saidhe would hold himself in readiness toappear if desired provided his state-

ment would be treated confidentially.General Bell used a Mercator map of

the Pacific showing the distances fromthe Hawaiian Islands to surroundingpoints and explained that Hawaii was

in the center of a circumference which

Is approximately from 2100 to 2100 miles

that touches Alaska on north, CarolineIslands on southwest, Samoan Islandsat the other southwest angle, Tahiti onsoutheast, San Francisco, Victoria andSeattle on noreheast and Unalaska on.

north, therefore dominating the Pa-

cific.If there were no Hawaiian Islands

the United States and Japan would beon the same basis in military opera-

tions. It would simply be a questionof a five or six thousand-mSl- e tripacross and operating at that distance.If there were many such island groupsin the Pacific the possession of anyone would be relatively unimportant,but as there is practically the onesingle group In mid-Pacif- ic command-

ing the situation the "effective posse-ssion" of Hawaii the Xaval commitstee was told means that no hostilefleet from the Orient would dare' passthat strong base to attack the Cali-

fornia coast. If Hawaii is "con-trolle- d"

that is, effectually occupiedby the American navy as an operat-

ing base it can defensively set outthe line of attack 2000 miles from thecoast. The naval committee was toldthat scouting cruisers operating fromsuch an outpost which is connectedby cable with the United States couldbe in constant communication, even

Remedytelegraphy, Honolulu and throughthat with the mainland for the direc-

tion of operations for many hundredmiles. Army, transports today, oper-

ating beyond Honolulu to the Philip-

pines have communicated for S00 miles.

en by the United States Pearl Harborcould become the coaling base for theentire fleet. The naval committee hasbeen informed that. unless the United

States makes Pearl Harbor impregnable this outpost would be captured by'Japan in the event of war and theadvantage lost by the United Stateswould go to Japan, which would thenhave the mid-Pacif- ic outpost.

General Bell explained to the com-

mittee that the army is this year pre-

paring to mount at the mouth ofPearl Harbor. The fortifications in-

clude a mortar station on the hill over-looki- ng

the harbor, a heavy rifle sta-

tion at the mouth of the Honoluluchannel, another one at "Waikiki, andanother one back of Diamond Head.It will take several years to developa drydock at Hawaii, Meanwhile theplan is. for the Xavy Department tofurnish submarines and torpedo boatsfor the coast defense of Hawaii.

The Xaval committee has been frank-ly told that not one gun is mountedin the Hawaiian Islands, that an Ori-

ental enemy can with one battleshiptake possession of Hawaii in half aday by landing troops and arms. Thearmy is in advance of the navy inthe little that has been done to pro-

tect Hawaii. Some emplacements arefinished but no guns have yet beenmounted. Some appropriations for gunshave been made. Secretary Taft isurging very strongly this year thatCongress provide for the entire planof defense outlined by the Taft Boar'dreport. The estimate submitted forthe emplacements which command theapproach to Pearl Harbor is $1,100,000.The total estimates for the army for-

tifications is about.?2,500,000. The Houseappropriations committee Is bejngstrongly urged to make these appro-priations but the Naval committee istold that these fortifications will havetheir value greatly diminished unlesssomething is done for a naval base.

LETTERS COME

FOB LOST SAILORS

Two letters were received by "Unit-

ed States Shipping Commissioner Almyyesterday, which recall In mournfuland pathetic way the tragedy of theAmerican ship Eclipse and the ter-rible sixteen days at sea In an openboat experienced by her crew. Theseletters were addressed to StanleyEnnts and Isidore Madec, two of thethree who died from their sufferingsfrom hunger, thirst and disappoint-ment In the leaky boat that had beentheir home for thirteen awful days.

The letter to Ennls was postmarkedat New Bedford, Mass., and was addressed to him at San Francisco, careof the ship Eclipse. Itjwas postmarked November 23, 190 1, which wasabout a month, after the Eclipse sail-

ed from Newcastle, New South "Wales.The letter to Madec was postmarked

"Carnac-Morbehan- ," France, in De-cember, and it likewise was addressedto Madec at San Francisco, care ofthe ship Eclipse. Evidently the writerof each letter had received word fromthem that they had shipped on theEclipse for San Francisco and theseletters were written to meet them atSan Francisco on their arrival there.

Of course, there is nothing on theoutside of the envelopes to show fromwhom the letters are. But It is clearfrom the fact of the letters Itself thateach had friends or relatives who wereInterested in him.

The letters will be returned to thedead letter office, and from there tothe writers, if there is anything Inthem to indicate who the writerswere. These letters, however, makemore certain than it was before thehomes of these two men, and theireffects and the wages due them willbe sent by the Shipping Commissionerto the friends or relatives whom theyhave left behind them.

The prosecution is still on, the courtstanding adjourned until 9:30 Mondaymorning. Thus far the trial has occu-

Pearl Harbor. This was the first step

toward carrying out the policy an-

nounced by President Tyler thirty-fiv- e

years previously.Coming down to the days of Blaine

and McKinley, we find those statesmenrepeating the declarations of theirpredecessors.

By the time that President McKinleyreached the White House, It had be-

come apparent that the danger of theoccupation of Hawaii by a foreignpower had been shifted from Europeannations to those of the Orient.

Finally, ten years ago, when the un-

expected events of the Spanish-Americ- an

war thrust a new situation uponthis nation, it became apparent that itwas necessary for the United Statesto acquire the sovereignty of the Ha-

waiian Islands, both for the protectionof the Pacific coast and In order tomake U possible to maintain any navalbase In the Far East.

But although this government an-

nexed the Hawaiian Islands for theparticular value of their strategic loca-

tion, they have permitted almost tenyears to pass without turning a sodor laying one foundation stone towardthe actual construction of a naval sta-

tion at Pearl Harbor.It is true that a magnificent site of

over 600 acres of ground has been ac-

quired for this purpose.The ten square mile of landlocked

waters In Pearl Harbor could easilyaccommodate the combined fleets ofthis nation and of Gre'at Britain, butthat can never give shelter to a battle-ship till docks are built and the channel approach Is straightened.

The importance of Pearl Harbo"- - ast a. iiiiv.ii mm uuiuary vast: lias trceii; repeatedly urged by men able and ex--perienced in military and navalscience; among them Captain (now

, Admiral) A. T. Mahan, who .pointedout with unanswerable arguments thecommanding importance of Pearl Har

as the key to the Pacific.i Gentlemen of the committee, this'government has for ten years neglect-

ed the safeguard of preparing a navalbase in the mId-Pac:S- c. Our relationswith other nations are such today thatit would be Inexcusable neglect of theresponsibility of Congress to the na-

tion to postpone the beginning of thiswork another year.

The Navy Department ana the Gen-

eral Board are at last keenly awake toj the urgent need of opening Pearl Har-- jbor and building a dry dock there at

j once. Both these lines of work shouldj be carried on together, and both should, be provided for in this bill.

I would respectfully suggest thatyour committee invite Admiral Deweyor some member of the Naval Boardto appear .before you and state to youpersonally in an executive session someof their reasons for the urgency ofwork at Pearl Harbor, which they may

care to transmit to you in writing.The development of Pearl Harbor is

not a Hawaiian proposition; it is a nat--tional need. But as my nation gaveover its sovereignty to this country tenyears ago, we have a right to ask, andwe do ask that adequate protection beprovided for our islands, so that we

Hawaii should be defended for itsown protection; but I repeat that It isfar more important for the offensiveand defensi-- e plans of the nations as awhole.

Mr. Hobson. I would like to remark,in connection with the suggestionmade by the Prince, that I ventured Inadvance to see Admiral Dewey andothers that have studied that question, including General Bell. The Ad-

NAVAL BASE IN HAWAII.WASHINGTON, January 2S. An

AGRICULTURAL COLLEGEMONEY EXPECTED SOON

? . ... fcgovernor rear. expects to receive tne tnirty thousand dollarsof subsidy from the Federal treasury for the Hawaii College of Agricul-

ture and Mechanic Arts or at least the first instalment of the moneywithin four or five weeks at the outside. This expectation is based oathe Governor's knowledge of the matter and a cablegram from W. H.Babbitt. Superintendent of Public Instruction, received vesterdav. which

y said, "Treasury Department rules favorably Agricultural College."W O W ? w O O W W W V t? 5 5 & ? ? O 3 V O 5 O w W V v W O ? V V

"This probably means," Goverr.or Yet the original statute was framedFrear said with reference to the dls- - j before Hawaii was annexed and held

patch from Mr. Babbitt now visitingWashington, "that the Attorney Gen-

eral's department has rendered anopinion to the Treasury departmentfavorable to us.

' "When I was In Washington I uigedthe case of Hawaii In the Interiordepartment, the Education bureau ofth&t department and the AttorneyGeneral's department. The Attorney1

General's was the only one to be heardfrom when I left. Approval of theCommissioner of Education, who atfirst ruled against us, had been gain-

ed. The Interior department gavs anadverse ruling two years ago.

"As the matter has stood until thismessage came, the plan was that,after the College got well under way,I would write to have the money paid.According to the. law, before the Leg-

islature meets, the Governor gives hisassent to the payment of instalmentsof the subsidy. One of the require-ments Is that the Legislature shallaccept the money.

"I hope to get the money In thecourse of four or five weeks, havingalready written for it."

Each state and territory In theUnion is entitled, under the statutefor that end provided, to share in theFederal support to agricultural colleges. Some states have more than one'Institution subsidized from the fund.

other step toward preparing for pos-sible trouble In the Pacific was 'takentoday when consideration of betterdefenses for the Hawaiian Islands wasbegun by the House Committee onNaval Affairs.

It is probable that the committee'sbill will authorize the construction ofa naval station at Pearl Harbor andthat a big drydock will be built thereeventually. The project has beenunder consideration for some time bythe Navy Department.

The advantages of such a course,both offensive and defensive, werepointed out to the committee today byrepresentative men from ihe islands,who urged the establishment of anaval base at Pearl Harbor and alsothe building of a flotilla of submarinetorpedo boats to defend American in-

terests there.Prince Jonah Kalanlanaole, the Del-

egate of Hawaii in Congress, address-ed the committee at some length. Hepresented maps and charts showingthe strategic position of the islandsand the commanding position whichPearl Harbor occupies. He assertedthat Daniel Webster had declared asSecretary of State that because of itsadvantageous location no other nationthan the United States should be al-lowed to gain possession of Hawaii.He quoted from Capt. Mahan to showthat the fortifications and the main-tenance of a naval base there wereindispensable to our mastery over thePacific and that Hawaii ought to bemade the Gibraltar of the Pacific.

ueorge B. McCleHan, representingthe Merchants' Association of Hawaii,and F. M. Hatch of the Chamber ofCommerce of Honolulu were intro-duced to the committee. Mr. McClel-la- n

said that the island had beenwaiting for the construction of de-fenses for ten years since annexation.

Mr. McCleHan devoted much of hisattention to an argument in favor ofbuilding and stationing a flotilla ofsubmarines in Hawaiian waters. Thelocation of the islands, he said, madean ideal operating ground for suchboats.

The estimated cost of the Pearl Harbor station Is $2,000,000, and to beginthe work an expenditure of $500,000 isasked for this year. The committee islikely to give favorable considerationto the matter.

DEPUTY FOB

DR. NHH(From Saturday's Advertiser.)

The movement Inaugurated sememonths ago by Dr.Norgaard, the Ter-ritorial Veterinarian, to establish anefficient staff of assistants throughoutthe Islands was given an impetus yes-

terday when Dr. Elliott, V. S., of Hilo,was commissioned as Deputy Terri-torial Veterinarian and Live Stock In-

spector for the district, of North andSouth Hilo', Puna and Kau. This isthe first of such deputies to be ap-

pointed, but It is . the hope of Dr.Norgaard and of the members of theAnimal Industry committee of theBureau of Agriculture and Forestrythat within a very short while therewill be competent veterinarians act-ing with the authorities in all the islands.

The movement is being undertakenby joint action among the variousplantations and ranches of the Islandsand the Bureau of AgriJilture, thestock owners guaranteeing businessenough to make an Incojle, with thesalary of $250 a montl With thisguarantee'Dr. Norgaard confident ofbeing able to place confetent men Inthe outside districts to handle thestock diseases that now exist and pre-

vent the introduction of others.Dr. Elliott left yesterday for Hilo in

company with C. C. Kennedy and J.J. Carden. who had been authorized bythe plantation and ranch owner, ofthe Hilo districts to represent themin the matter of an appointment andin the guaranteeing of salary. Duringtheir stay here several conferenceswere held with members of the Bureauof Agriculture and the TerritorialVeterinarian.

Dr. Norgaard is anxious now to seethe other districts follow this exampleas there are existing contagious diseases to be fought, especially gland-ers, while a number of large importations of stock are now on the wayfor the different Islands and will haveto be thoroughly examined before be-- :

Ing allowed to land. In view of Dr.EHott's appointment he Is especiallyanxious that the districts of Hamakuaand Kohala get in line, thereby cover-ing the whole of the Bbj Island.

VALPARAISO, February 14. Thegreat American fleet of sixteen battle-ships, under command of Rear-Admir- al

Evans, passed Valparaiso this afternoon- -

and continued on its voyage northwardfor Callao, Peru, the next stoppingplace. All Valparaiso and thous&rdsof apersons from every city ia Clilewitnessed the passing of the fleetPresident Montt and the other high of-

ficials of the republic came out fromshore to greet the battleships, and al-

most the entire Chilean navy exchangedsalutes with them as they "swung roundCaraumilla Point and into Valparaisobay in single file, headed by the Chileancruiser Chacabuco and five Chilean torpe-

do-boat destroyers.Turning sharp around Caraumilla

Point at 1:10 o'clock, the Chacabucoand five Chilean destroyers led the Con-

necticut and her fifteen sister ships intothe view of the thousands who hadawaited their appearance since dawn.The day was perfect and the spectacleof the fleet, stretched in a great semi-

circle, as seenfrom the high hillsaround the bay, was magnificent.

PRESIDENT MONTT THERE.

President Montt and other Chileanofficials embarked on the training shipGeneral Baquedano and took a positionwell out in the harbor. Around theBaquedano the fleet swung at a speedof four knots, firing the presidentialsalute as they passed in review. Itwas one hour from the time the headof the fleet entered the bay until thelast vessel had passed the President'sship and turned toward the open sea.Then the Baquedano lifted anchor andescorted the fleet woll out of the bayand on its way to the north. It wasa review such as has never before beenseen in Valparaiso bay, and one thatwill long be remembered by the peopleof Chile, who came mile3 to see it.

Shipping in the harbor and the prin-cipal buildings in the city were dressedfor the occasion, as the day was ob-

served as a holiday in honor of thefleet. From the picturesque slopinghills dotted with houses a profusion ofbunting and the waving of flags werediscernible from the bay. Thousandsof persons from Santiago and otherplaces in the republic had come intoValparaiso for the occasion, and theroofs of the Bofsa Commercial, withits two huge towers, the custom houseand the large warehouse and otherbuildings along the circular road skirt-ing the bay front were black withspectators.

CHILEANS CHECR WILDLY.The enthusiasm of the Chileans was

Unless the officials of the DepartJment of Justice secure the convictionof the person on the Island of Hawaiiwho slashes registered mall pouchesopen with a knife, the Postoffice de-

partment may take Into considerationthe advisability of having registtredpackages for the Kawalhae routetransmitted in burglar-pro- of safes 'or,at the least, in pouches lined withsheetiron.

It appears that the registered mallpouch from which $2000 gold or there-

about was extracted, supposedly whilein transit from Kawalhae landing toKamuela postoffice, Walmea, Hawaii,and which was shown to the postofficeInspector with a slit In It, was notsingular case of the kind in thatregion. A suspicious circumstance hasbeen noted in connection with thatpostal robbery, which was that thaorifice In the pouch was too small topermit of the extraction of the missing'package of coin through It.

That particular ground of suspicionis rendered more ugly for the handlersof mall at Kamuela by the fact that &

registered mall pouch from that officewas received at Honolulu, about amonth before the mall robbery Inquestion, with a slit about Ave inches!long in it near the top. Advices en-

closed "told of a registered packagecontaining $750 in the pouch. An ex-

amination of the contents showed thatno such package was there.

Here was an obvious case of mailrobbery, with nothing wanting but thecapture of the thief. Before, however,the authorities had time to lay anyplans to that end a wireless messagewas received by the postmaster of Ho-

nolulu from the postmaster of Kamu-ela. It said that a mistake had beenmade In the advices sent with tharegistered pouch. The package of $750

had not been enclosed. Somehow itwas overlooked In dispatching the malland had been found safely reposing ona shelf in the office.

So there were two Kamuela register-ed pouches slashed within the spaceof about one month.

Moses Koki, postmaster of Kamuelawhen these things occurred, was ar-

rested following the $2000 robbery.What he was charged with was em-

bezzlement of postoffice funds, and forthis bound over to the grand jury sesslon of the present special term of theFederal court. The cause of this com-

mittal was a. shortage In his accountsPrior to the robbery which, thoughmade good, remained against him un-

der the statute as the offense of em-

bezzlement. It is generally supposed,however, that the authorities meant toprobe his possible connection with therobbery to the bottom.

It this connection some talk, hasleaked out respecting checks drawn,as high as $1000, on a local bank withthe name of Koki upon either thefront or back of them. Joshua D. Ko-

ki, a brother of Moes, accompaniedthe latter when arrested to Honoluluand, after a week's stay, returned toKamuela and took charge of the Kokistore. He has been assistant post-master at Kamuela, according to thedirectory, Moses being deputy tax as-

sessor as well as postmaster. No doubtthe Federal and the Territorial officesmentioned, in addition to keeping thestore, required an assistant

Marshal Hendry is expected fromHawaii In the Klnau this morning,br'nging Joshua D. Koki under a sub-poena to appear before the grand jury.His evidence may be very valuablewith regard to the methods of handlingregistered mall matter at the Kamuelapostorfice, if it does not have somerelation to the brand of pocket cutleryused by the handlers of pouches on theKamuela-Kawalha- e mall route.

NO DRAWING OF RACE LINES.John Wise, whose name is a deceptive one, has this to. say in the Bulletin:

"""""Any time a kanaka wants a position the Advertiser shouts 'graft.'"When some haole is looking for, a place, the Advertiser thinks it is allright. That's what's the matter. And yet they talk about the nativesdrawing the color line."

This is the manner in which John "Wis discussed the situation.when he droppedj into the Bulletin office this noon.

"What's more I would like to know how much experience thesecritics of Judge Kepoikai had before they went on the bench. Theysay he had no experience. How much did Perry and Stanley have beforethey were appointed to judicial offices?"

The Advertiser does not call Hawaiians ".kanakas;" it leaves that sortof, thing to gentlemen who, even if "Wise by name are not so by nature. Xordoes the Advertiser shout "graft" when a Hawaiian is looking for office and"think it all right" wjien a white candidate appears. It enjoys a somewhatdistinct recollection of reversing the process in the --memorable contest of Iaukeavs. Brown and Jarrett vs. Yida, and the field against A. V. Gear; and its)urgency for Kuhio over McClanahan in the last Congressional contest is held"by the latter to have cost him some hundreds of votes. And as for stickingto whites in battles further back, we are quite content to leave the matterto Messrs. Sewall, Xittle, Humphreys, Gear, Bobertson, Galbraith and fifteenor twenty other white candidates for elective and appointive offices who candescribe the course of this journal.

As to Judge Kepoikai, Mr. "Wise would have been wiser not to ask questions.To the query as to what experience Messrs. Perry and Stanley had before theywent on the bench, we have onlv to answer that they were men of sound Jegaleducation and judicial temperament. Lawyers say that Judge Kepoikai hadneither of these indispensable qualities. He was appointed to get him out of amore important office.

This paper accepts no standards in office but citizenship, integrity and- -

competence. Unlike Mr. Wise and the men who are preparing to get the ns

into more trouble than they will ever get out of, it does not inquirealso as to color.".. In .Kepoikai 's case it has not mentioned color or past or presentcondition of servitude

THE MALTA OF THE PACIFIC.The Advertiser's representative at Washington, Mr. Ernest G. "Walker, is

one of the best informed newspaper writers at the national Capital. Havinglived there for years, during which time he learned the ins and outs of Washington in the service of the Post, he easily became a correspondent of rank;and now, as chief of the Boston Herald bureau, he has the entree everywhere,xot excepting the President's private office, and is able to get much informa-

tion of a special nature for Hawaii as well as for New England.Our readers will remember that he distanced the Associated Press b' m

week in the telegram he sent the Advertiser covering the findings of thoMitchell Commission; and that while Oyster Bay was buzzing with denials ofthe story that the battleship fleet would be transferred to the Pacific, Mir.Walker insisted that the move had been decided upon and would .soon be off-

icially confirmed. And he was right.Remembering these facts and many like them, illustrative of Mr. Walker's

facility in getting news and of his accuracy in presenting it, our readers will beprepared to accept the very interesting story he tells in today's issue about theexecutive session over the Pearl Harbor appropriation, of -- the House 2CavaJcommittee and the chief of the General Staff. Ordinarily, such news does notreach the public and in this case, being familiar with the methods of the man,we feel assured that Mr. Walker knows more of the proceedings than he hassent on and that the part he felt at liberty to publish is authentic.

The news he sends will interest Hawaii from one end of tho island chain totho other. It throws light on the reasons why the Xaval committee of theHouse so suddenly reversed its policy and made Pearl Harbor the object ofsolicitous attention; it shows, how delicate, at this time, is the diplomacy ofthe Pacific; and it shows low settled is the military and naval policy of centeringhere the main defenses of tho Pacific coast and of American commercial in-

terests in this ocean. Furthermore there is an assurance of temporary navaldefenses, in the form of torpedo boats and submarines and of an ultimatemilitary and naVal expansion here which will make Hawaii in general andOahu in particular, the Malta of the Pacific.

KAHULUI'S STRONG CAUSE.There is no outstanding claim for Federnl public works in this Territory,

among those on which even preliminary action is awaited, which should takeprecedence of the improvement of Kahului harbor. It is one of tho firstthings," too, which was promised by the Congressional members of tho HawaiianCommission when that body visited Maui directly after annexation. There isno questioning of the remark tho Maui News makes, that, "Private enter-prise has done more for the improvement of this harbor by dredging nnd thobuilding of a breakwater than has' been done by private enterprise in anyharbor in the Territory and yet no Federal aid has been given.,"

As showing what private enterprise has done for Kahului harbor, tho"News says: "Before the recent dredging of the harbor and tho constructionof the breakwater there, large vessels of the American-Hawaiia- n type couldjiot enter the inner harbor and would lio in (ho outer harbor only in tho calmestweather and when the indications were that tho weather would bo fair. Nowthe Nevadan and the other large vessels lie at perfect case in tho inner hnrborwith slack hnwscrs while heavy swells are running outside." As nn illustrationof the benefit of the improvement, tho same paper mentions that the ship Ers-ky- ie

M. Phelps unloaded 1250 tons of ballast and took on 5140 tons of sugar,and sailed away in tweuty-fiv-o days from tho timo sho entered port. PilotMacaulay is quoted as authority for tho statement that any battleship of thoUnited Stated could enter tho inner harbor of Kahului with perfect safety andanchor there.

"The immense amount of shipping from this harbor in the past is but abeginning of what may bo expected in tho future," tho Wailuku paper con-cludes, "and it is time that steps bo" taken to have tho harbor surveyed andlater dredged and the breakwater extended and strengthened at the other end."

MOVING PICTURES ITRUST.'NThomas Edison, the American inventor, is tho kingpin of a newly-organiz- ed

world trust. Few men live who like him hold tho key to a universal monopoly.The combination (in question was formed in Buffalo, New York, last month witha capital of $S,000,000 to control the moving picture business of tho world. Itis a moderate capitalization if it is true, as is stated, that the moving picturebusiness. tot the United States which the combination controls represents aninvestment of $50,000,000 with 4200 show place's. Mr. Edison will receive fromthe combination $200,000 a year royalty. It is claimed by the manufacturersthat the combination is justified because without the Edison patents they werehelpless. With Edison are combined two firms of New York, two of Chicago,one of Philadelphia and a French cpneern. Not only will the concern controlthe manufacture of the films, but the rental departments under a general agree-ment will not be permitted to rent films except at the rate of $25 per week forthree films and they will not be pemritted'f o sell any films outright. The com-bination will 'demand that operators of moving picture machines have a license,and where the laws do not cover this point the manufacturers will compel anobservation of this phase of the business by refusing to sell where unlicensedoperators are employed.

Territorial money will pay for the buildings and plant.

THE &PEN4DOO& ISSUE.Some interest has been occasioned recently by statements about the inten

tions of thcJapanSse in Manchuria. Numerous cojnmercial complaints' have beenreacBing the State Department about, discrimination in Manchuria againstAmerican merchants. Secretary Boot is known to hare given the intimationthat this government must take up the question of the openidodr in Manchuriavery soon as things are running there now. However, the State Departmentscouts any idea that this is likely to encourage hostilities. On the contraryit believes that the, question can be amicably handled.

The Advertiser's Washington correspondent says that the "United StatesGovernment regards all the powers that are interested in the Far East asabundantly bound to the principle of the open door through the assents givenin response to the note,s of the late Secretary Hay of July 3, 1900, and subse-quently. To the propositions laid down in the first of those notes Germany,Great Britain, France, Bussia, Italy and Japan adhered, and until the advanceof Japan in Manchuria began, after'the close of the war with Bussia, there wasnothing to indicate in any. way that any recession from that agreement mightoccur. ..

Even now its emphatically declared by well informed Japanese that noviolation of the open-do- principle is contemplated by, them in Manchuria;it is even stated that if any specific complaint is raised as t8 discriminationagainst American interests by Japanese in Manchuria such complaint will beredressed as effectively as possible, and as soon as possible by the JapaneseGovernment.

A number of complaints have reached the State Department of such dis-

criminations, but as yet' they have not been the subject of diplomatic represen-

tation in Tokio.One of the most serious of them concerns the system of rebatesofficially proclaimed by the South Manchurian Railway the Japanese Govern-ment.roa- d.

This system provides a rebate of 1 per cent, for any shipper whosefreight bills amount to $50,000 a year, 2 per cent, on annual freight bills of$100,000, with increases to 7 per cent, on annual bills amounting to $250,000or more.

American merchants in the Far East have complained that this 'systemoperates as a Substantial discrimination against them, and they have specifiedone method by which the Japanese merchants have taken effective advantageof it. Six or seven of the large cotton manufacturers of Japan combined andarranged with the great house of Mitsui, the most-importa- nt concern in Japan,to handle all their Manchurian trade. The combination easily came within,the7 per cent, rebate class, it is alleged, with the result that each of its membersgets a freight rate at least 6 per cent, lower than the individual shippers ofAmerican cottons can hope to secure.

The present intention of the State Department is to take up the open-do-

question again at some time in the near future, probably in the summer. Justwhat form the new negotiation will assume has not been determined, but itnow seems .probable that it will involve representations to Japan, as well asto the other powers in the original agreement. Other powers have interests inManchuria of varying extent. t

It has been pointed out in Administration circles that the question ofChinese territorial integrity involved in the Japanese advance in Manchuriais hardly of a character to create feeling in this country, except as it bearsupon the principle of the open door. But it is believed by State Departmentofficials that American commercial interests in Manchuria will be much betterserved by the maintenance of the Chinese administration of that territory thanif Xt should fall under either Russian or Japanese domination. From Japanesesources comes a disclaimer of intention to absorb Manchuria, and the StateDepartment is inclined to believe that such absorption is not likely to boaccomplished easily or soon. But the department also believes that if it isaccomplished it will have a repressive effect on American commercial interests.That is why the State Department is preparing to take up the question of theopen door again and' endeavor to secure new guarantees as to the freedom ofAmerican commerce in the Far East.

It is also pointed out that from the commercial standpoint it is to theinterest of Japan, much' more than the United States to avoid difficulties overthe open-do- or question, since of Japan's exports 39 per cent, come to this country,while of her imports only 3 per cent, are from the United States.

, PUBLICITY FOR PEARL' HARBOR.In an interesting letter from Washington, Delegate Kuhio says:

I greatly regret that a. newspaper campaign for PearlHarbor was not provided' for jn December. We had some verystrong support in tho Naval Committee and I believe that ademand for the development pf Pearl Harbor by some of thdleading newspapers of tho mainland might well have exertedan influence sufficiently strong t,o have secured favorable actionby the Committee.

It is ticklish business "providing for" the support of any measure by theleading newspapers of the mainland. , They do not liko to be looked after inthat way and any attempt to especially influenco them arouses their suspicionor hostility. On thismceount, as Ernest G. Walker explained, in a letter to thoAdvertiser, the .original project of giving a dinner to tho --Washington corres-pondents of, the, great papers andT explaining Pearl Harbor matters to them,was frowned down. It would havo been misunderstood.

We think it by no means unlikely that tho President, when the Navalbill and the separato Pearl Harbor bill como before Congress, will write aspecial message, on tho subject, in which case there will be no need of furtherpublicity than those who publish or comment on the message will give it.

H--FEEDING THE FLEET.

The statement that there will bo no trouble about feeding tho fleet if rimplonoticctis given of its coming, might havo gono without tho saying. Everybodyknows as much as this; but the point Is that notice should bo obtained in timoto increase tho supply of fresh vegetables.

Groceries and beef do not present much of a problem. Should tho fleetcomo directly here from San Francisco, it would naturally have on board alltho groceries it wanted. Tho various island ranches could keep it In beef andmutton, for a much longer stay than tho fleet is expected to make. But freshvegetables nru another mutter. Three days' supply for 20,000 men would ex-

haust tho available crop of sweet potatoes, carrots, turnips nnd tho like; leavingnothing of ti"o sort for tho townspeople; and for nil that is heard to the contrarytho fleet mav stay here n month.

If definlA data as to tho month and part of tho month in which tho Hootmight bo expV-te- could bo had, arrangements could bo made to grow thingsthat will bo

Tho influenco of tho President has told strougly in favor of Foarl Harborand tho chanco of getting tho needoil appropriation prows bettor dally. Un-

reversing its position tho JIouso Commltteo on Naval Affairs has helped matterivery much.

It is highly gratifying in this connection to seo tho fnvornblosentiment ou tho Pacific Coast, n marked expression of which camo from SenatorPerkins tho other day.

Deputy United States Marshal Brcasand Deputy Collector Ralph S. Joha-sto- ne

of the Internal Revenue office re-

turned from Kauai by the steamer W.G. Hall, bringing. with them two Fed-

eral prisoners, both charged with il-

licit distilling. As. evidence an okele-ha- o

still and ew barrels of mashwere also brought over from the Gar-

den Island. The prisoners axe JohnParis, a Hawaiian, and Ah Fa, a China-man, the former having been arrestedby Bruns and the latter being underarrest and awaiting them before ar-rival, having been run down by Sher-iff Rice.

The issue of, the Garden Island re-

ceived yesterday tells ofthe arrest and"the raiding of the moonshine manufac-tory. It says:

Sheriff Rice came back from KoloaTuesday with a moonhsiner and his out-fit, caught redhanded in Lawar.

When the Sheriff was acting as peace-maker in Koloa district some time ago,there wa3 a decided spirituous odor tothe several garrisons. He did not havetime to investigate, the source of thesupply at the time, but decided as soonas opportunity occurred to look a lit-

tle into the matter. For that reasonhe left a man behind who was to findout all there was to know.

Tuesday the Sheriff received a aes-sa- ge

from his man that he had a lot totell in the matter. Arrived at theplace appointed he was told that JohnParis was the one who sold and man-

ufactured the stuff. He got hold of hisman Tanaka from Lihue, and set outfor Paris' house, some three miles upthe Lawai gulch.

Mrs. Paris was the only one at homowhen the party arrived and got scaredwhen she saw the head of the policehimself enter the premises, telling himthat her husband and a Chinaman bythe name of Ah Fa were manufactureing the stuff another three miles upthe gulch.

The Sheriff, Tanaka and the inform-er trudged on and finally arrived atthe place designated. Akama was theonly one at home, however, and loudlyprotested his innocence and igneraneof any wrong-doin- g. When he fanciedthe police had an eye for the view aminothing else he tried to empty a betilebehind the house. This he sheuM nthave done, as the eagle eye ef thesearchers was upon him and one wblffathe stuff was enough to raveal tfcename and quality ef it.

The Sheriff ordered Taaoka to taketho man along, in order that b roM,show them where the real soure ofsupply was located.

The captive didn't have muoh to say,but the Sheriff found indistinct traceof travel nlong the stream and feUew-e- d

it until he came to where the galeadivided. Here he asked the pake whihwas the right and was told that theleft gulch was one leading to the placein search. The Sheriff promptly n- -eluded that the one leading to theright was the right one, and thoreferesent his two men and the pake ap t&atgulch, while he himself made samereconnoitering in the other brnnah. Allof a sudden he heard a shout from hismen and soon after saw Akama, whehad succeeded in evading them, snookalong the hillsule evidently in the bapeof gotting to the place in time t fee

able to warn his boozo supplier Ihtimo. Ho hadn't counted on the Sher-iff nnd his gun, however, and win varymuch chagrined to find bath af than hahis way.

Though unfitting, he was campaWWto go nlong with the men, wha aawhad no difficulty In Boeing that tfcagrworo on the right traok, as ti 1hhhworo plentiful and lately out. A ltttfofarther up they discovered smke fesuing from a small hat. Akawn hmtnlso soon tho smske and t wp an --

as a favored few civilians.The goes were of a very interesting

nature and the arrangements reflectedgreat credit on ihe sportsmen at theFort.

Tie Srst number on the programwas a six-rou- nd go between MusicianOakley of Co. G, and Private Bird ofCo. E. a couple of husky welters.

Every round was stoutly contestedaad honors were fairly even at theeai of the sixth, though if a decisionhad been given on points Blrti wnuldprobably have won. As It was RefereeCabriel called it a draw, the men hav-ing previously agreed that If bothwere on their pins at the end of thefinal round the referee should so

In one round Bird floored his man;this was the only knockdown of theboot. Bird is a Jabber and Oakley putsals trctyin swings. The men were aswfflfcgas they make them and whentheir gloves were being taken off thecrowd cheered them lustily.

The main event was a ten-rou- gobetween Musician Marsh of Co. G, andPrivate Bowe of Co. F. The formerwelshed 119 pounds and the latter 122.

Marsh was a 10 to S favorite. He IsoiiIJ a lsvan a aj-- lmn UaTJ Via. nwin

Marsh looks and fights like JackDempsey. Rowe affected a BrittCToacii. Marsh showed cleverness andaggressiveness from the start. Hesoon had Rowe guessing with rightdrives to the heart and dropped himfor the count with a right swing tothe Jarr. Marsh sailed into his manas soon as he was on his feet andtried to finish the argument rightthere. He was wild how ever and thegng saved Rowe. Rowe was on thedefensive throughout the round andcHaeoed to save himself at the finish.

Marsh started briskly in the secondbut Rowe showed sound defense andgot in some telling blows. Rowe's bestand about only point this round was aright swing which flushed his oppo-

nent's ribs.In the third Rowe put his Vight to

Marsh's face but failed to feaze him.He scored a little later with a rightto the heart. Marsh then made awhirlwind attack and battened tilsman to the ropes, the round ending ,

Both men came to the scratch Ingood order and Rowe swung his rightto the neck, following with a lightpoke In the wind. Marsh swinging hisright viciously to the Jaw staggeredRowe who hugged Marsh to keep fromfalling. Marsh hooked his right stifflyto the Jaw and then put in a straightleft to the point. Rowe went downfor the count and on getting up wassent to the rope by a shower of blows.At this period, the referee, seeing thatRowe was all in, stopped the fight andgave the decision to Marsh. His actionwas a wise one for Rowe would haveinevitably been knocked out before theend of the round.

BASEBALL TOURTO THE ORIENT

Jess "Woods, now In San Francisco,received word from Japan recently tothe effect that Keio University was pre- -pared to arrange games with an all- -star club in case he decided to takeone through the Orient this fall. Thiswas good news for Woods, who hasbeen In doubt as how such a tripwould be received by the Japanese.There has been so much war talk thatWoods was afraid that Japanesemight refuse to play baseball with us.There are a great many students atKeio University, and any games thatare played there are sure to be wellpatronized.

"If our trip to China goes throughand I think it will, we won't want forplayers, stated Mike Fisher the otherday. "Only the other day I had aletter from Pat Donahue in whic.i hesaid he wanted to go and also his twobrothers. Jiggs Donahue Is crazyabout making the trip. Before FrankChance went East, he assured me thathe was anxious to go and Hal Chasewill sign any time I say so. Llfleld ofthe Pittsburg club wrote Joe Nealonnot to forget him, and I can't meetHiidebrand without him talking hishead oft about another trip. Hllde isan awful pest. I haven't talked tosome of the others, but I have nodoubt, but what every man who wentto Honolulu will be crazy to go throughto the Orient next fall, it will be atrip of a lifetime, but it will mean alot of hard work on the part of themanagement. It must be boosted allalong the line. We ought to haveagents In Japan, China, Honolulu andManila."

The beauteous Lilluolalu still holdsthe lime spot in the center of thesj age, and verse, more or less metrical,continue to pour in to her address.Many of the rhymes require expurga-tion and other obliteration. One, smit-ten with the charms of the belle ofOahu, has evidently been handed themitten, for he exclaims:

The beautiful Lilluolalu,Princess of the days of the kapu;'

To her lover she said"When he begged her to wed:

"Aole pe hana wau huhu."

But she has rivals. Note:

The beautiful Lilluolalu;She's a stunner and peace In a pa--u;

And a big hit she madeIn the Floral Parade;

But she wasn't as cute as Kunalu.

Others tnere' are, "beyond the pale.who question the very existence of thefair one and suspect even her bloodrelations of being apocryphal. In threeyearning stanzas this doubt is uttered. Listen to the yearn:

O Cousin Elali and Lilluolalu,Parade riders and belles of Oahu;

Now, if you're so cuteAnd each Is a beaut,

Please tell us all where and who areyo

For we'll each take, a run o'er the PallTo see LU and her cousin, Elali.

Now, please shout;Bring 'em out; "

Name your friends, sweetest LI1 andElali.

If there is sifth a girl as OlaluShe who rides splendidly with the

pa-- u

Bring her out"With a shout'

And relieve the' fair Isle of Oahu.

Such Is fame. Another writer shedslight on Lill's past. He says:

The beautiful LilluolaluHad married one Billy Pahu;

But he was so coarseThat she got a divorce

Now there's a chance for you.

Another, this one a rival, beyonddoubt, discounts all the Joyfulness ofthe preceding by announcing Lllluo- -lalu's demise.

It's a shame and It makes me feel illTo announce the sad death of poor Lll,

But It surely Is worseWhen I add It was verse;

And it's up to the poets to foot thewhole bill. '

L'.llie now can never be mated.For her body is safely cremated.

She Is dead. God be thanked!Let her poets be spanked.

And their verses be now expurgated.

But the news of her death seems tobe exaggerated, for later comes theintelligence that

The beauteous Lilluolalu,Who met only men that her ma knew.

Had a circle as wideAs the incoming tide

For she knew all the men pn Oahu.

Other jevldence that sweet Lilt iswith us yet is furnished by these: (.

The friends of LilluolaluVote the question of rivals tabu;

For no maid from the PaliMust venture to dally

With lovers of pretty Lalu.The beau of LilluolaluTook her out In a great big canoe

The canoe got upset.And tho paint it got wet

On the face of sweet Lilluolalu.

The premature announcement ofLUluolalurs demise brought forth astorm of Indignant protests yesterdayand there remains no room for doubtthat up to the time of going to pressshe is alive and well.

Even the Irish have become Inter-ested In the beauteous Lil and "Kal-muk- l"

writes the following:

O beauteous Lily O'Lal,Tou're surely the broth of agal;

"If you won't be my wifeThrough the Journey of life.

Content me by being my pal.

"Husband" has evidently allowedhimself to be prejudiced by someonewho has no use for Miss L. Hear hiscomplaint:

Lilluolalu if keen as a knife.She'd torment a man all his life;

She'd tattle and talkAnd at her work balk t

What a daisy to take for a wife."Sceptic" Is another who entertains

no highoplnlon'of the lady of the hour.His arraignment follows:

Lilluolalu has set such a paceThat she's apt to discredit her race;

She has taken to drinkAnd flirts with a Chink

Her ending will be dire disgrace.

The terpslchorean prowess of goodold Lll receives due recognition In thefollowing lines from "Jack":"h, Liliuolalu's a daisy.She sets all the young fellows crazy

Her lips are so sweet.Her form so petite.

And her hulas beat those of MissMalzle.

"Smitten" harks back to CousinElali. His hark:r sing of the dark-eye- d ElaliWhose home is just over the Pall;

Even birds you' may hearSinging sweetly and clear:

"Elali, Elali, Elali."At a late hour last night the follow-

ing was received from the b'eauteousherself. The address was Kakaako:Pretty soon I'll be sending my billFor the columns I'm helping to fill;

OT DROP

TO TIE POLICE

(From Monday's Advertiser.)Police Officer A. K. Nawahi picked

up an unconscious Chinaman near Pa-la-

Junction early yesterday morn-ing, the man being found in the ditchbleeding freely from a gash in theforehead. ' The officer called the am-

bulance and had the ''man taken to theQueen's Hospital, where he gave hisname as Li Chea.

His explanation of his conditionshowed that he had been held upby a footpad. He explained thathe was walking along the sidewalk,minding his. own business, when sud-

denly he was attacked by an unknown

man? supposed to bo a Porto Rican, andthrown into the ditch, the fall split-

ting his 'forehead. The footpad, dur-

ing the scuffle which preceded the fall,demanded whatever money he had, butran away after the Chinaman had yell-

ed for the police and called uponeveryone within earshot to "haul in"before ho was knocked out.

To the police yesterday morning hedescribed the Porto Kican who had as-

saulted him and afterward identifiedFrancisco Catro as the man, pickinghim out from a bunch of Porto Bicansin a tenement behind Joe Clark's oldjoint. Catro was put under arrest andis now being held. He is an oldtime

1iailbird and has been mixed up in sim- -

ar affairs before.,

LEFT TIE CROOK TO

SEE HIS LADY LOVE

The case of Lieut. Morgan was not

the only one of a romantic nature on

the Crook, for 'another, of a humbler

aspect, came to light Saturday in the

person of a private of. the 23rd Infan-

try, who desired that his name bewithheld for obvious reasons.

This was the regiment that camehere on the Buford recently en routeto the Philippines. However, a fewminutes after the transport had castloose from the San Francisco dock acertain company, sergeant discoveredthat one "Brown" for he might aswell be called that here was missing.A "Search of the quarters of the com-

pany,' together with a few Tmrriedquestions asked, developed the factthat " Brown" had been seen on theship within a few moments prior toher departure, and as he was not to befound, the conclusion was reached thatbe bad at the last minute taken Frenchleave.

And this surmise was correct, exceptthat the leave was only of a tempo-

rary nature, and was taken deliberate-ly with a definite purpose, and notwhile under the influence of anythingmdro' potent than Love's spell." "Brown" had learned just beforebis arrival in the City of the GoldenGate that his girl, "the" one, had ar-

rived there a few days ahead of him,and as soon as his regiment pulled infrom New York he hastened to hiscaptain with a request for at least afew hours' sliore leave before sailing,giving tho reason th'erefor. The(ofn-ce- r,

however, did not see matters inthat light, and denied the requestpointblank.

"Brown" said nothing at the time,but having made up his mind that hewas not going to do three years inManila without a final visit, made hisway to the rear of the ship about halfan hour before she was rerwy to castoff, and at a time when all Aands wereforward in the vicinity oM the gang-plank, and adjuring a fri'fidly-lookin- g

dock hand to shove a plami aboard thoship, wJiich the latter coasented to doon being shown a couple of pieces ofsilver, the young Lothario was awayand off that dock before anyone hadnoticed his absence.

He reported, himself to the militaryauthorities at the Presidio a half hourafter the transport had departed, inorder, as he expressed it, to "save hisface,-- and chancing to encounter agod-nature- d lieutenant, he was prac-tically given his own time until thoCrook sailed to be with his girl.

"I don't know exactly what they'lldo to me when I get to the islands,"said he referring to the matter yester-day, "but as I have been in the ser-

vice for ten years and have a prettygood record, I think the punishmentTrill not be very heavy. Anyway," andhis face lighted up, "it was worth it."

DOLLARS LAST YEAR

Oahu Railway & Land Co.- - clearedover half a million dollars In the year1907. A summary of the company'saffairs on December 31 Is contained inthe following ad interim report of' thepresident and board of directors to thestockholders, which explains also whyBuch a report is now Issued: '

-- In submitting the following brief report we beg to call your attention tothe fact that the Interstate Commercerules and regulations have been ex-

tended to this Territory, and to con-

form to all their requirements the oldsystem of books of accounts were clos-

ed on the 3Qth of June, 1907,'and a newset opened as of July 1st, 1907. Thosystem of keeping the accounts tomeet the requirements of the InterstateCommerce Commission Is made uni-

form for all railroad companiesthroughout the United States an4 ItsTerritories, and has caused so manychanges In the method of segregatingand keeping accounts as to render itimpossible to make comparative state-"men- ts

of the new forms of accountswith those of the old. The time forclosing the books for annual state-

ments is also changed from the endof calendar years to June 30th." Thebooks of your company for the newfiscal year will therefore be closedJune 30, 190S.

The annual meeting for the consid-

eration of reports and election of officers will be held as soon as reportsare prepared. As the usual annualmeeting and accompanying reportshave been deferred, for the reasonhereinabove given, It was decided bythe board of directors that the presi-

dent should distribute to the stock-

holders a condensed reportfor the year 1907. '

FLOATING DEBT.Since the issue of bonds In 1897 to

the amount of J2,000,000 to refund ob-

ligations then existing, your companyhas expended for permanent Improve-

ments: Wharves, warehouses, water-front property in fee, branch roads,new rolling stock, etc., $370,377.87, thusincreasing the total value of Its property about $1,000,000 without increasingits bonded debt. The obligations thusincurred from year to year have beenrepresented as a floating debt, and thesurplus earnings during the past teayears have been applied to the liquidation of the same, leaving a bal-

ance on December 31, 1907, as shownabove.

We consider that this me tho 1 offinancing has been more favorable tothe interests of the stockholders than tohave Increased the issue of bond In1897 to $3,000,000. The practical resulthas been the same as If we had Issued$3,000,000 in bonds In 1897 and redeemed,through a sinking fund during the firstten years, 231-- 2 per cent., or $S53,000,

of such Issue, which would have leftoutstanding December 31, 1907, $2,145- ,-

000 bonds, the amount of the presentbonded and floating debt

It may be of interest in this connec-tion to note that the net earnings dur--inS the ten years ending December 31,

1907, have been $2,965,309.87, and theamount of dividends paid were 31,994- ,-

932.00.

GENERAL REMARKS.

While the gross earnings for 1907

show an Increase over 1906 df $34,076 97,

the net earnings show a decreas of$26,921.79. This is accounted Tor by thefact that an unusually large amountof work and materials were expended

in repairs and improvements to road-

bed and track, renewal and repairs onrolling stock and macadamizing wagon,roads around the Honolulu terminal towarehouses and wharves, resulting Inmaterially raising the standard of therailway system and the efficiency Inthe operating departments.

FUTURE PROSPECTS.

The prospects for a fair increaa ofbusiness for the year 1908 are gcod.There will be an Increase of severalthousand tons In sugar and fruit fortransportation. The Walanae LimaCo., Ltd., which commenced businessnear the close of 1907, will provide newbusiness to the extent of several thou-

sand tons.No serious accidents have occurred

tTurlng the past year.Respectfully submitted,

If

fiFEditress Anne Marie Prescott dashed, in where angels fear to tread one

afternoon during the past week and only the drag she has with the greatpublic through the trenchant columns of the Times saved her from some awfulconsequences. The fault was not altogether her's, Dr. Eodgers being par-tiec- ps

eriminis but also without malice aforethought. The Doctor, be ife

inown, represents the majesty of the Federal law by officiating as bailiff andoater guard at the portals of the U. S. Marshal's department in the Judiciarytuilding, in which place the Federal grand jury is inquiring into many things,their deliberations being clothed in inviolable secrecy. Now-- the Marshal isone of the Times' most ardent supporters and the editress is always welcomein his office, consequently, as she tripped through the courthouse corridors theother day, with a sheaf of Thunderers on her arm, she turned naturally intothe Marshal's sanctum. Dr. Eodgers, the guardian, was asleep at the switchand the light footsteps failed to arouse him. Anne Marie burst unannouncedon the circle of grand jurymen, greatly to their amazement, and some of themstruggled to place her either as a complainant or a witness. Nobody evenconsidered the idea that she might be a defendant.

Quite unconscious of the furore created, the editress put a copy o"f theTimes on the Marshal's desk and then began to circle the jurymen, cryingher wares. Meekly the men, from the foreman down, bought the Times, andstill unmindful of her danger, the fair intruder dropped a courtesy and trippedout, tucking a masualii Times under the arm of the grim bailiff, who stillsweetly slumbered.

"I never (nit) knew (eomprends) that I was doing aught (ought) thatwas against (against) the law. But the Times (always good times, FloralParade, etc) should be allowed (aloud but not loud) anywhere. Hbni soit,you know (no, do) also dolce far niente. I'm glad I never woke him."

Speaking of "A. M. P." I want to say that she has a just cause of com-

plaint against my Ioathesme contemporary, the Sporting Editor. To someverses which the Editress had rather die than write, he appended the well-know- n,

initials. At one time he signed John Milton to some doggerel aboutjoker, so Mrs. Prescott is in good company. I think he did it because shehas insisted so often that every quotation, even of the Ten Commandments,should have the author's name attached; and having something of his ownand being too modest to sign his name to it, he simply turned it in as a partof the literary accretions of more worthy writers. Hoping that these fewlines will soothe the fevered pulse of the Editress of the Honolulu Times, Iclose with this special warning.

And now it turns out that "there ain'tgoing to be no core." Treasurer Campbell has announced that Wilder'spromotion will leave no vacancy, because the work is to be so rearranged that"what Holt did will be done by others leaving the head in a position to dcthe work he had been engaged as an expert to perform. This will probablyle dilated on by Aehi and the politicians of that brand as another "kaole"trick. It ought, in the opinion of the Labor leader and his gang, to be goodfor some votes.

It is to note the virtuous indignation of Achi at the bare asser-tion that he is at work on an anti-hao- le plan for the campaign. "Some ofof the candidates put up at the election will be white men," he says.

Of course, he says so. How could be send his runners around to Linkif he said anything else. And talk is cheap anyhow, but it takes

money to buy gin. So he supplies the talk and some others, the candidatesle promises, supply the coin. This is

Proposition number one is that Hawaiian politicians have never been

f Inown. to suggest a white man for any office and when compelled by expediencyto put one on a ticket have rarely kept faith with him at the polls.

Proposition number two is that the secret Hawaiian "lodges" are, inthe main, centers of anti-hao- le influence, their object being to keep Hawaiifor the Hawaiians rather than to consecrate Hawaiians for Hawaii.

Proposition number three is that the Hawaiians, not the whites, are

ing the latter suggestion, any lawyer, looking up that section of the Revised

.Statutes which deals with the conditions of suffrage granted the Stockbridge

Indians will find my authority. He will see that the Stockbridge Indian whovotes must be able to read and write the English language and that his nativetongue gives him no standing at the polls.

As things are now, the white people are willing to let the Hawaiians havesuch offices as they are fitted for; to grant them preference in public work;to leave their suffrage alone. But if the responsible whites are driven intothe corner by superior voting power they will make a fight which will end intheir complete political supremacy. They do not want Hawaii to be ruledby color; but if color has "to be the standard, that color must be white.

The Eastern papers are full of stuff about Lord Fairfax, the American whohas recently become 'a British subject and has been admitted to the House bfLords. I knew him sixteen years ago, before he had come to the title. Hisfather was living then, the tenth Baron Fairfax, a Virginia farmer, who wentabout in overalls and blouse, and really farmed, though he was a cultured man,j.nd lived in a dignified though simple way. '

The present Lord Fairfax was then about twenty or twenty-on- e and hadrecently come to New York, and was a junior clerk in Brown Brothers' bank.He was a modest, sensible young fellow, though the fact that his father wasBaron Fairfax and the family had always held a high social position in Vir-

ginia, brought him invitations to the swellest social functions from the swellestsociety people in Manhattan, enough to swell the head of almost any youngfellow. His family was not rich and he had to live on his salary as a bankclerk, which at that time was not a large one. He made good with the bankand was soon entrusted with most important matters, and of late years hasbeen counted a financier of great ability.

The Fairfaxes have been American ever since Lord Fairfax, the third orfourth of the line, came to Maryland about the end of the seventeenth century.The present Lord Fairfax, the eleventh of the line, is the first to go back toEngland to claim the title and the seat in the House of Lords that goes with it.

'HOUSEHOLD NOTES.

An enameled kettle which ha3 beenallowed to boil dry should be Ailedimmediately with boiling water. Coldwater poured in in such a case wouldcause the enamel to chip.

Shelves for very precious china mayhave pads of felt to prevent chippingthe dishes. When fragile plates mustbe piled one on another a small, plaindoily placed between them will savebreaking.

Here are some of the things whichwill tend to keep colors from fading:For blue use a handful of salt, forgreen a lump of alum. Ox gall willkeep gray or brown from fading.When washing tan, brown or linencolor use hay water, which is madeby pouring boiling water over hay.

Canton flannel ls best for removingaccumulations of dust and It takesevery particle, but cheese cloth is bestfor furniture with a piano Anlsh. Uethe flannel cloths wrapped around abroom for dusting walls, but some-times really better than this is thewhite cotton mop used for scrubbingpurposes. They can be washed anddried and, being so light, are easyfor a woman to handle.

There are many splendid utensils forkitchen use, but nothing takes theplace of the ed iron pot forboiling meats, especially small hams orlarge roasts. But the best Iron potswear thin on the bottom and this isfrequently the cause of foods beingscorched. It Is advisable to remedythis defect by placing a small tin lidIn the bottom of the pot, then thereis no danger whatever of the foodburning, since It does not come In con-

tact with the hot Iron.

Mrs. John H. Cole, of SI Arlingtonstreet, South Framlngham, Mass., wasfor years a martyr to kindney troubte.but at last found a cure In Doan'JBackache Kidney PHIs. She writes:

"I suffered greatly with periodica!headache, terrible bearing-dow- n painsand a whole train of minor symptoms.My back was always weak and thekidneys terribly disordered. I cou 4not rest at night and In the morningwould get up feeling 111 tired, and dis-

couraged, and without the least ambi-tion to go about my household dutks.If I sat down I felt as though I neverwanted to get up again; I grew thinand haggard and developed deep cir-cles beneath my eyes. My appetuagrew less and less as the days went tuntil at last I did not eat enough tokeep a child alive.

"During all this time I was doctor-ing and dosing myself with first onsremedy and then another until nrrstomach fairly rebelled. I called In adoctor but soon saw that he did flftunderstand my case. Well, you maybelieve I was In despair for I had cometo that state where I did not care whathappened, when a friend told me whata flne remedy and cure for kidney dis-

ease Doan's Backache Kidney Pillwere. I bought a box and before I hadtafcen all of it I felt much better, rayback felt stronger and I rested mucheasier at night and was not troubledwith nightmares and Ats of wakeful-ness as formerly. After that first boswas gone I bought another and stl'lanother, each one helping me andmaking me stronger and better, untilI had taken twelve boxes. By that tiswnot a vestige of my old trouble re-

BEE DOCTOR TO

TOUR ISLANDS

Dr. E F. Philips, the expert pee man,

who arrived on the transport Crookon Thursday for the purpose of fnves

tlgating the hee situation In Hawaii,will make a complete tour of the Islands during his stay and will alsoaddress the Hawaiian Beekeeper's Association at an open meeting ibefore hisdeparture. Dr. Philips is studying theentire question of the honey industryIn the tropics and is one of-th- e authorities of America on questions relatingto the apiary. On his arrival in Honolulu on Thursday night he wasgreeted by A. F. Judd and G. P. Wil-

der, representing the local- - bee men,whose ruest he is.

His itinerary, as mapped out for himat a special meeting of the associationheld on "Wednesday, .begins with a tripto Kauai on Tuesday next, from whichhe will return on the following Sunday.

The next week he will spend among

the hives on Moloknl, one of the prin-

cipal honey Islands of the group, andthe two next weeks will be divided between Maul and Hawaii, every apiaryof consequence to be visited. Oahuwill be gone over last and the addressto which the local beekeepers are looking forward will also be deferred untilafter the return from Hawaii. '

The local men are looking forwardto hearing the result of Dr. Philips'observations in Hawaii on the pasturage and conditions of the 'bees, whilethey are particularly interested Inhearing whatever report he will haveto make on the presence or absenceof bee diseases in the Territory. It is

the opinion of the local experts thatno disease of any kind exists among

the Hawaiian bees, but a confirmationof this will be extremely gratifying. Itis expected too tnat the visiting expert will be able to point out ways inwhich an effective bee quarantine canbe made operative and the introductionof disease along with the introductionof queens prevented, m

Commercial NewsBy Daniel Logan.

There has been a substantial advance in the sugar market the past week,

which rather discredits expert predictions received by mail. Although yester-

day's cable, quoting 9G test centrifugals at 3.S6 cents a pound, $77.20 a ton,

is a decline of fifty cents in the ton from the previous day, it is a rise of $3.S0

the ton from a week ago. The parity of European beets rose forty cents theton to $S2.S0 yesterday, the quotation being an improvement of $1.60 the tonfor the week. Altogether the situation indicates that centrifugals are trendingup to the basis of the European market while the latter is itself rising.

Facts, however, seem tp indicate that our sugars are not .obtaining quitethe fairest deal in the New York market. Advices have been received herethat there were sales of centrifugals at 3.S3 cents on February 20. The Plan-

ters' Association cables gave the quotation on that date at only 3.67 and itwas not until vFebruary 26, or six days later, that 3.S3 cents was quoted.

Notwithstanding generally favorable reports of the plantations and a fatdividend list, sugar stocks .move but slowly on account of the tight moneymarket. Though some plantations command an extravagant figure gauged bythe probable returns in sight, but few shares of any are changing hands. Thelargest deal of the week has been one of $10,000 McBryde bonds at 96. Fol-

lowing are the transactions and the dividend list: Paia ($100), 20 at 127.50;

Oahu ($20), 75 at 23.73, 5, 35 at 24; Waialua ($100), 15 at 66; Ewa ($20), 15

at 24.50, 20 at 24.623, 25 at 24.73, 25 at 24.S73; McBryde ($20), 20 at 3.50; Ha-

REPORTS OF PLANTATIONS." t

Many sugar plantation companieshave held their annual meeting duringthe past week. An abstract of themore important facts in the reports ofmanagers is given herewith.

Ewa Plantation Co. had net proiitsof $770,07S.2G for the year 1907, yieldingJ700.0C0 In. dividends, or 14 per cent, onthe capital stock. Manager Renton, ina comparative statement covering flyeyears, showed that In the last fouryears S5G4 tons of sugar had been lostthrough the action of the leaf-hoppe- r.

A-- gain of about 2500 tons last yearover 1906 he attributes to a check thathad been put upon that pest. Therehad been no labor troubles during theyear. The total acreage for the 1907crop, which was 32.4SL61 tons of sugar,was 3770.S2 acres. For the 190S cropthe total acreage Is 3S22.45 acres. Thesefigures include the small plantation ofApokaa Sugar Co., whose cane Isground at Ewa mill. The 909 cropwill be from 3667.66 acres, exclusive ofApokaa.

Manager Welnzhelmer's reflort toKolda Sugar Co. showed a crop for1907 of about 3614 tons of sugar from1547 acres. For this year's crop thereIs an acreage of 15S5 acres, and forthat of next year 1S00 acres, fromwhich 7000 tons of ugar is expected.Large Improvements have been madein the water supply and the mill planthas had added to it fine new centrifugals and one new filter press.

Waimea Sugar Mill Co. heard fromManager Fassoth's report that lastyear's crop was 1546 tons of sugar from ooo storehouses, $300,000; Navy yard249 acres of cane. This year 1500 tons development, $50,000. The entrance ofIs expected off 240 acres, and the same the harbor will be dredged and a

next year off 265 acres. f00: channel provided.Makawelt plantation was shown, at a cablegram from Superintendent

the annual meeting of Hawaiian Sugar Babbitt of the Territorial departmentCo., to have made profits Of $302,304.16 of education, now visltinjr Washington.last year, of which $320,000 was paidout In dividends. Including the Gay& Robinson sugars, the crop was .22,666tons, being an average return of 6.CS

tons of sugar an acre. Manager B. D.Baldwin's estimate had been exceededby 1SS2 tons. This year's crop is esti-mated at 21.091.S7 tons of sugar. Forthe 1909 crop the area is the largestyet carried and is expected to reach I

from 24,000 to 25,000 tons. Little or nojturist from the Department of Agri-daima- ge

was done last year by the culture, is here to render assistance toleaf-hopp- it having been kept insubjection 'by the Australian parasiteand local enemies.

For Klhel Plantation Co., ManagerA. J. McLeod reported a crop of 3917

2 tons, which was under the estimateowing to excessive rains. Next cropis estimated at 4400 tons. The sale ofthe plantation, approved at a specialmeeting some time ago, is expected tobe effected soon.

Waialua Agricultural Co., ManagerGoodale, had a yield of 22,521 tons ofsugar for 1907, or about 1500 tons belowthe estimate. It was from 39S0 acresand the average yield was 5.66 tons ofsugar to the acre. The tonnage ofcane per acre, so far as cropped, ishigher this year than last. For 190S acrop of 2S.000 tons is estimated, therebeing an increased area of 1022 acresas between 1907 and 1903 on January 1.The company has leased a considerablearea of newly-cleare- d land to pineap-ple growers.

Maui Agricultural Co. showed aprofit for 1907 of $294,196.92, of whichHaiku Sugar Co. received $29,730.77 andPaia Plantation $44,596.16. Manager H.Al Baldwin reported a crop of 20,163tons of sugar, which should have beenexceeded if it had not been for poorjuice the early part of the season dueto the warm, wet spring. From 16S4

acres plant cane and 2043 acres ra-toons, the crop of 190S is hoped to exceed the former estimate of 22,000 tons.For the 1909 crop are being cultivated1925 acresof plant cane and 2205 acresof ratoons, and for the 1910 crop 19S0acres of plant cane and 2300 acres ofratoons. They are burning all borer-infect- ed

cane before cutting. Lime isbeing liberally employed to check rootdisease. Besides furnishing the plan-tation with beef, the company's ranchshipped forty-fiv- e head to Honoluluand furnished a number of workingoxen for the fields. Together with Ha-waiian Commercial & Sugar Co., theM. A. Co. has a flourishing rubber nlan- -tation at Nahlku of about 100 acres ofCeara trees. Something like the samearea will be planted this year, alter-nating Hevea with Ceara.

Manager Ahrens of Kukulhaele plantatlon (Pacific Sugar Mill Co.) reportedlarge mill improvements durlnc- theyear. With the water available fromthe Hamakua ditch tho plantation willbe able to lay out all its lands, about2260 acres, below the ithousand-fo- ot

level. For the 1910 crop It Is expectedto have between 1400 and 1500 acresof plant cane and 900 acres of ratoons,which will be tho record for the plan-tation.

Kohala Sugar Co., according to Man-ager Georgo Watt's report, has foundthe Kohala ditch' supply scanty whenmost needed. Therefore It is proposedto contract for no more from that

per cent.source. Expenses oi the year, $200,-666.5- 0,

were nearly '$11,000 more thanthose of 1906, the principal cause ofincrease being $14,S03 rent of water.There was a decrease of about $S200

In labor account. The 1907 crop was2102.23 tons of sugar. A crop qf 4750tons Is expected this year.

Honokaa Sugar Co. had a crop of6625.6S tons of sugar from 2725 acres.The yield was 2.43 tons an acre, thatof plant cane being 3.22 tons. Thisyear's crop is estimated at 6000 tonsoff 2460 acres. For 1909 there will be2S00 acres and for 1910 a plant andratoon area of 3400 acres. Since waterfor flumlng has been obtained an earlystart for ratoons is gained, which it ishoped will mean an increase of three-fourt-

to one ton of sugar to the acreof ratoons. Manager Gjerdrum says:"From the time we got water for har-vesting our cane ingood time, a newera has commenced for the Honokaaplantation, every work can be dovetailed, and the result (looking at thecondition of the cano and fields today)is very encouraging for a prosperousfuture."

ruary 2S stated that the Pearl Harborbill had been favorably reported In theHouse, carrying appropriations of$700,000 and authorizing nearly $3,000,-0- 00

AS TUX ASSESSOR

Precisely at one o'clock yesterdaynftornnnn Trfl!iciiwp A T OnmnViAll

signed the commission of Charles T.Wilder as Assessor and Collector ofTaxes for the First Taxation Division,Territory of Hawaii.

By coincidence the date of February29, 190S, borne by Wllder's commissionIs exactly four years later than thedate of the commission from TreasurerA. N. Kepolkal to James L. Holt, thelate assessor, which was February 29,1904. This conjunction of dates, too,is one that could only happen once infour years. For the leap year Interimprior to 1901, it could not have hap-pened more than once In eight years1900 having been eliminated from thecategory of leap years for tho correc-tion of the calendar required everyfour hundred years.

Mr. Wilder informed an Advertiserreporter on Friday that, in the eventof his being appointed, he would makeno changes in the office staff. Goodbehavior would ensure his job to everydeputy, clerk and collector.

Mr. Campbell stated yesterday thatthere would be no successor appointedto the position heretofore held by Mr.Wilder In the Tax office. Mr. Wilderhad been In charge of Income taxesand had the work so well advancedthat he would have no difficulty Incompleting It for this year's assess-ments.

OF FLEET ARE l

As a result of a possible disagree- -ment between the Japanese who are j

preparing to grjet the sailors of the J

fleet on their arrival at the Crossrpadsof the Pacific, there may be two dis-

tinct Japanese celebrations, or at leastons welcome distinctly Japanese by onesection of the colony and assistance tothe general entertainment by all thecitizens by another section.

The Japanese committees have heldtwo meetings and argued long andearnestly without coming to any agreement. One party, representing thebusiness Interests, wish to contributetheir funds to the general entertain-ment scheme, while the other party.representing, the general rank and fileof the Honolulu Japanese, wish to havea lantern paradle and possibly a day ,

of Japanese sports, to which the sail - ;

Nothing is 'definitely decided andfurther committee meetings will beheld during the coming week.

MARINESMART VOYAGES MADE.

Smart voyages have been"" the ruleV

the past month between here and theI Coast, and the Coast and island portsThe Irmgard, vh'ch arrived yesterdayin San Franclsqo, went up in fourteendays, which is a 'very smart passagein that direction indeed. The Mohicanwent up from HIlo In sixteen days.The Annie Johnson made the voyageup from Hilo in nineteen days. ThtAndrew Welch came down from SanFrancisco to Hilo early in the monthin fourteen days. The C A. Thayercame down from Grays Harbor to Ho-

nolulu in twenty-tw- o days. The Ful-tert- on

arrived here from San Fran-cisco in sixteen days. The Eva sailedfrom Honolulu to Eureka in twenty-thre- e

days. The Marion E. Chilcottwas twenty days In going from Hono-lulu to Monterey.

All of these are good voyages; someof them are splendid ones.

ITNS WEATHER AT HIIiO.

The remarkably fine weather whichhas prevailed for some time at Hilobreaks all records there for this sea-

son of the year, It is said. One resultof it is that vessels can load sugarthere so uninterruptedly that the millshave been unable to keep up with thashipping facilities. Ordinarily, thegrinding at the mills goes on uninter-ruptedly, but the lading of vessels isdelayed by rains, so that the sugarpiles up and vessels are delayed. Butjust lately the weather has permittedthe continuous lading of vessels, andthe sugar (has gone into them as fastas the mills could make it. The resultis that the Alaskan was able to getaway for Salina Cruz two days aheadof her schedule time. The AndrewWelch, which arrived In Hilo February 11, was to have sailed yesterdayfor San Francisco, and the Gerard C.Tobey, which arrived there FebruaryIS, is to sail on Tuesday. If she getsaway on time the only deep-se- a vesselIn Hilo harbor after next Tuesday willbe the James Rolph, which is to take6000 bags of sugar there and then goto Kaanapali for the remainder of herload.

BREAKS A RECORD.The American-Hawaiia- n steamship

Alaskan broke a record in the timeof her stay in these islands, on thepresent voyage. She arrived here, dis-charged and loaded at the four ports,and got away for Salina Cruz in elevendays, which is said to beat the recordfor Tehuantepec cargoes.

"Yes, I a'm," replied the Georgian."What hai-e-, jou to say about thismatter?"

"Just what I said to Mr. Adamson,"said Lllley, "and that is thatsthe statements contained in that article arelies."

They sent for Frank B. Lord, theWashington Herald and Xew YorkSun representative.

"I believe," said Lllley, "that youare in the employ of the Electric boatcompany." .- "Whatr else have you to say to me?"sa'd Lord.

"I have this: When you wrote thatarticle published In the WashingtonHerald this morning you were a

liar.""You are taking advantage of your

position as a member of the house tomake an attack on me to which. Icannot reply as I would like to," an-

swered Lord."I will go with you alone to the

most remote spots in the district," re-

torted Lllley, "and there I will tell ypuagain what I said to you just now."

"I don't need to hear anything more.That satisfies me," said Griggs.

ORDNANCE

The Supreme Court has declared theawning gutter ordinance of the Boardof Supervisors to be null and void.Chief Justice Hartwelf is author of theopinion, which was rendered yesterday,vacating the judgment under which L.li. MeCandless and James Armstrongwere fined $10 each and costs for vio-

lating the ordinance. The law is setforth ia the syllabus thus:

"Under legislative authoritv to regulate all local police, sanitary and other!regulations not in conflict with the gen-

eral laws of the Territory, a countyhas no power to prohibit by ordinancean act already made penal by 'lemto-ria- l

statute."Ordinance 9of the County of Oahu,

relating to gutters on .awnings, is voidas conflicting with' B. L. Sec. 939 cov-

ering the same subject."The following statement of the limi-

tation on county enactments is foundin the opinion:

"Since a county derives its authorityfrom the legislature it ought not to beinferred, in the absence of clearlr ex-

pressed terms, in the act underywlfiehthe county is organized, that the legislature has delegated to counties thepower to legislate concerning their lo-

cal affairs in such way as to supersedeterritorial laws or render them unneces- -

sary. In ordj;r to come within thegrant of legislative power given by thecounty act to boards ot county Bup&svisors ordinances should be reasonablyrequired for the purpose of administer-ing the local police and sanitary affairsof the county and this cannot be saidof an ordinance, like that in question",made for a purpose fully provided forby the laws of the Territory. It isnot enough that ordinances regulatinglocal police and sanitarv matters shallnot be in conflict with the general laws.If the undertake to penalize acts al-

ready made penal bv territorial lawthey shotild be authorized expressly orby necessary implication.' i

W. L. Whitney, Deputy AttorneyGeneral, represented the Territory and,A. G. T. Itobertson the defendants.

NO MITIGATION.Charles Lake appeared in person be-

fore Judge Lindsay on appeal fromDistrict Magistrate Andrade for miti-gation of sentence. He made a speechand J. L. Kaulukou also pleaded forhim. The court saw no mitigating feat-ures in the caijc and aflirmed the sen-tence, which was four months' i'mpris-onme- n

and payment of costs. Lake'soffense was assault and battery uponMrs. Kalapuna Williams.

Till? GRAY" DIVORCE.La Vancha M. Gra-- , in her libel for
