, Jnont in the mayoralty contest, and theargument will bo concluded this morn- -
Jug, as well as argument on a fourthpaostion suggested by Justico "Wilder

count in any of tho precincts. If itdocs not, several days may bo occupiedan tho henring of the caso.
Threo Questions of Law.
Tho threo questions of law being ar-
gued were stated by the court itself, byChief Justice Hartwell, at tho begin-
ning of tho afternoon session. Theyaro these: Tho materiality of tho evi-
dence that some votes were receivedin the eleventh precinct of tho FifthDistrict after 5 o'clock; tho mater-iality of the evidence1 as to Craw- -

"Willie
ford had Jio right in tho polling placeat nil, notwithstanding his appoint-ment as a clerk by tho County Clork onthe authority of tho Board of Super-visors. Justico Wilder called Mr.Davis' attention to a section of thostatute giving representatives of par-ties and candidates and tho pulilfc gen-
erally a right inside the polling placeduring the count. Mr. Davis modifiedhis claim, limiting it to tho timo during tho voting. Tho court decided ofits own motion that tho allegation thatCrawford had offorcd to bet that Achiwould carry tho precinct was imma-terial.
Five O'clock Closing.
A. G, M. Robertson argued that thorequirement that tho polls should boclosed at five was mandatory, and that,therefore, if it is, the fact that thopolls wero not closed at that hourin tho eleventh would require that thoentire vote of tho precinct should bethrown out. The Chief Justice calledhis attontion to the law requiring thoballots to be, made up in packages ofono hundred, and asked him if by ac-
cident one hundred and one ballotswere put ip quo package if that wouldvoid the whole election. Robertsonsaid itVuld if .the, provision .wag,jmani"' """"' .datory. ","--

leas, the altered plans arealtogether in favor of the contractors,cutting down by one-ha- lf the most dif-
ficult and most expensive portion of theproposed work and allowing the sameaverage price per yard for tho re-
mainder. Tho figuring had been doneincluding the Whole six hundred feetchannel width and the cost estimatedaccordingly, so that the estimated prof-its on the contract now aro muchlarger than had been eonntod upon,

COLD COINAGE HERE
Passengers aboard tho S. S. Hilonianlast night brought to Honolulu somoof the new gold cqins just issued fromthe San Francisco mint according totho new designs. These coins are somewhat similar to those originally dosigned by St. Gaudens, but have the"In God Wo Trust" motto replacedand the pantelletes of the bird cut nccording to a different style. The twen-ties havo the stars put back again ontho face of tho coin, instead of beingBunken on tbo rim, and tho milling hascome back. Tho coins aro an improve-ment on the original new ones, but itwill be somo time before they are aapopular, as the old spread-eagl- e brand.A San Francisco criticism of --themsays:
"Bankers and bank tellers do notlike the new $5 pieces and say allsorts of harsh and uncomplimentarythings about the innocent and unof-fending balf-cagle- They aro toothin; their edges aro flat; they do sotstack well nor evenly, their stacks arodeceptive and misleading; they do notfit with the older coins. Those andsimlar remarks were made by banktellers who handled a large number ofthe new coins. Somo criticized tho n
and the manner of its execution,made sport of tho female face divine,with hollow cheeks, and the bird cladin panties. All agreed thnt tho newcoin is more like a, telephone slug thana coin of the realm."

Iter. W. S. Ament, tho famous mis-
sionary of the Boxer siege In China,who wns charged with looting and
by Gormans nftcr the raising
at tho Peking siege, Is aboard the Jap-
anese liner Nippon, Mam en route toNew York to undergo medical treat-
ment. Dr. Anient has been unconscious
at various times during the voyngo ofthe steamer from Japan, and as toonas tho vessol reaches tho mainland ev-
ery effort will bo made to transfer himto Now York with tho least possiblodelay.
Tho woll-know- missionary mot withan accident somctlmo ago, by beingthrown from a horse, sustaining in-
juries, to his chest, somo of his ribsbeing broken. Later, according to in-
formation, obtained aboard tho steamer,he went in bathing at a seashore portand complications set in, blood poison-ing being brought on and a clot ofblood formed on his brain.
In 1000 Dr. Ament was head of tooAmerican Board of Missions in China.During the siege of 1'eking bo waschairman of the Committeo of Confi-scated Goods, to look nftcr goods thatwcro gathered by tho troops andothers, the goods so confiscated be-longing to thoso who had run awayfrom tlicir homes. This committeofared also for tho bedding, clothes,food supplies and anything that couldbo got for the refugees.
On April 18, 1901, Dr. Ament wasin Honolulu on his way to Now Yorkto answer charges of looting. Whilohero ho stated that bis committeo fur-nished bedding and extra clothing fortho foreign troops, who enmo Imper-fectly equipped for their stay on thocity walls. Tho desires of soma in-dividuals were not complied with andttoon stories wcro circulated that tinfommitteo was looting on its ownhook. According to Dr. Ampnt, ntthat time, an army 'ofwithout thoroughly investigating thoreports, sent the stories out to tho fourcorners of the earth.
Tho doctor stated then that thcrowcro thrco missions whoso membershad no place to go, had no money,rlpthlng or food, and at tho sugges-tion of tlio American Minister, thecommitteo entered the residences oftho Chinese who had left Peking andthe committee Bold tho stuff found.Hirs, silks and curios were thus dis-
posed of. The committeo did this onthe written authorization of tho Amer-ican Minister, nnd it was done for thecommon good only. Then there worea number of Christians surrounded byBoxers and tho committeo requestedtliat.troons CO out to nid them. Thecorrespondents said theso were onlylooting expeditions. Dr. Anient waseventually arrested by tho Germans.When be went through hero it was to"o to New York to defend himselfagainst tho charges, and ho was completely exonerated.
In tho light of subsequent events ithas been shown that Dr. Ament didonly what ho considered was for thetiding of those who wcro in need ofassistance, and it was one of tho re-
mits of tho fearful episodes of warthat the committee took this means ofobtaining relief for sufferers.

Pacific Mail stcnmshlp City of Sydneyin regard to tho death of Mrs. Eliso S.V. Neumann was received by tho Clrcult Court yesterday by registered mailTho testimony was taken by HenryKickhoIT, of San Francisco, who was ap itpointed a commissioner by tho courtfor the purpose on Interrogatories filedwith tho commission.
Captain William II, McLean of thoCity of Sydney testifies that his firstacquaintance with Mrs. Neumann ontho voyago of his vessel from San Francisco to Acapulco begun in April, 1008.Ho saw her last on the night of Septcmbcr 1, about 7s30 p. m., just nftcrleaving Mazatlan for San Francisco.Slio wns sitting on a chair outside thodoor of her stateroom. At 11:22 ho was acalled from his bed by the announce-ment that slio had disappeared. He wastold she had been missing sinco nbout11 o'clock. A thorough search of tbovessel was mado under Captain Mc-
Lean's direction, with the result that hobecame as certain that she must havogono overboard as ho could bo of anything ho did not personally observe.
Her trunks and other belongings weretaken charge of by the purser ut tbocnptnla's directions. These consistedof two trunks, two bags or valises,$202.00 in cash and n draft for $1250,ono thrcc-stou- o dinmond ring, ono two-ston- e
diamond with turquoisos, ono pinof three pearls, ono unset pearl, onopair of pearl earrings, ono sealed bot-
tlo of pearls, one bag of clothes, onoumbrella, ono fur enpe, ono black lint.
The entry in tho log concerning tboloss of Mrs. Neumann was as follows:
"11:10 p. m., in latitude 23 degrees02 minutes north; longitudo 107 dogrocs 48 minutes west; saloon watch'man reported to second officer tbnt Mrs.Neumann, cabin passeager, was missing, nnd tho matter was promptly reported to Captain McLean, who ordereda search to bo made of every part oftho vessel, but without result. Mrs.Neumann had cither fallen or jumpedoverboard, as she could not be found."
Tho testimony of Chief Officer JohnA. Johnson nnd of Purcsr E. A. Morganis a substantial repetition of that ofCaptain McLean.
Chief Engineer Thomas A. Sclfridgotestified that bo had known Mrs. Neumann for four years and was well ac-
quainted with her.At nbout 8:15 o'clock on tho evening
of September 1 ho called at hor stateroom, as was his habit every eveningto spend a littlo timo with her in conversation, as lie knew she was troubledwith sleeplessness. Ho remained Bi-
tting nt her stateroom door until ninoo'clock, when ho was called below. Aquarter of an hour later be returned nndwalked up and down the deck with her.She wanted to walk, but was unnblo towalk nlone. During this timo she ask-
ed him if he would not mk Miss Bil-
lings, her traveling companion, to goto bed, us Miss Billings had not beento bed for two or three nights. Mrs.Neumann eniil she would. jo down,which alio did, the chief engineer helping her into her berth. Speaking toMiss Hillings nbout her going to bed,she said slio would only Mrs. Neumannwas afraid. 'When tho chief engineerasked what she was afraid of, MissHillings said she did not know, but y
sho was afraid of men coming
around, ns thcro wcro men around tbodecks nil night, their duties requiringthem to bo there. The chief cnginocrthen volunteered to stuv ou deck untilMrs, Neumuuu was nhWli, and MissHillings then "wtful Hud turned Srr.'Al 0:30 o'clock standing in the floor
way of hi stateroom, tho 'ckruf ,JginWr Wolto to Mrs. Ncunthnn. SheAssured him that sho would havo no
trouble in getting nsleei. Ho then satoutsido on tho dvK nbout three feetfrom her door V6r possibly an hour.During that tWo he heard nothing. Herdoor wob opeh, but thcro was no light in
the ttatvfbom. Ho then walked up anddown 'tlio deck for a time, and aboutttIi minutes of cloven o'clock ho wentbelow, but returned to move tho chairsfrom around tho door on account of thecrow making a noise moving lieni intbo morning, as was afraid Mrs, Neumann might then be awakened early.
While Chief Engineer Seltrldgo was
thus moving the chairs, Miss Billingscamo out of tho room mat declaredthat sho had had sleep enough, and kIJsho was going to sit up tho rest of thenight. She entered the room nnd camoout and Informed, the chief engineerthat Mrs. Neumann was not in herroom. Mr. Sclfridgo nt onco orderelthe night watchman to report to theofficer of the deck. The bath nnd toiletwore at pneo searched, but she wns nutfound. The captain was notified andthe ship wns fcnrched.
Miss Hillings told Mr, Solfridge atthis timo that tho reason sho had beenafraid to leave Mrs, Neumann alonewas because Mrs. Neuman lind threatened repeatedly fo jump overboard, andsho only went to bed that night becnusoMrs, Neumann had assured 'her that ontweh a beautiful niocmliglit night no ouowould care to die.

ments."In two congresses," says Mr. Taw-ney- ,
"we bnvo appropriated moromoney for tho navy than tbo entirecost of tho Panama cnnnl. If publicsentiment will warrant a temporary let-up of this tremendous drain on thotreasury, tho money thus saved will, In
tevr years, tako caro of all the in-
ternal improvements for which thecountry is clnmoring."
Mr. TnWney .quotes npprovingly theprimo minister of Great Britain, Her-bert Asquith, who said recently to par-liament that tho timo has como for anabandonment of the "ambitious com-
petitive shipbuilding policy," whichfor years has been running.riot through-out all tho great nations of tho earth.
, No Danger of Attack.It is Mr.'Tawncy 's belief that If tnis
extraordinary work could bo curtailednot entirely stopped for four or flvo
years, the people would tIsc up nnd calltho government blessed. Thoro is absolutely no immediate or remote dan-ger of war between tho United Statesnnd nny European power, ho says, nndthis being the case, what is tho uso ofspending millions upon millions of treasure on Atlantic const fortificationsf
Those fortifications have nlrcadybeen carried forward to considerablelengths, and .might with propriety boleft where tliey nro for tho next tenyenrs, or oven longer.
"Hut what if a war with some European power should ,comc unexpectedly j" Mr. Tnwney was nBKcd.
"In that event, our isolation wouldbo our chief protection. No Europennpower lias n naval uaso on tins sido ofthe Atlantic. Should Great Britainover begin tbo establishing of sucb abase in the AVest Indies, it would ,bopossible lor s to complete our Atlnn-ti- c
cont defenses in ample time tocscapo danger. And without a navalbnso on this side, no European powerwould bo. in position to attack us.Again, there is no Europenn powerhaving tho transport servico necessaryto tho carrying of 100,000 men nndequipment. That equipment, for thepurpose of invading our const, wouldinclude horses, wngons, tents, provi-sions, ammunition nnd all the otherthings required by an army in tbofield. The physical difficulties aro thusinsurmountable, nnd mnko our heavyexpenditures for enstern coast defensesseem 'without warrant.
"On tho west coast tbo same thingis true with regard to Jnpan that istrue on the east coast with regard toEurope. Without a naval bnso in thePacific coast, no Japanese fleet couldleave that country for nn attack ontbo United States, nnd ever hope toget buck homo ngnin. '
Would Tortlfy Hawaii."I indorse, however, the thorough
fortification of Hawaii, whlcb is to boour naval bnso in the Pacific' Withthis fortification complote, it will bonut of tho question for any Asiaticfleet to attack' us on our own coasts.
"I was the, first man in the Houseof flcpresonlnlve to mnko a speechin favor of the annexation of Hawaii,teallcihft Its Importance as a navalbane, nnd the passing years have d
tlio opinion I then entertained.That speech was made in 18D7. Butour western defenses should, bo con-fined to that group of Islands, and par-ticularly to Pearl Harbor."

PEARL HARBOR WORK
It Is stated that tho contract fortho Pearl Harbor dredging, which wasawarded to tho Hawaiian DredgingCompany, will be carried out by it inconnection with tho San FranciscoBridgo Company. Both concerns havolarge nmounts of tho needed appa-ratus, nnd additional apparatus willbo secured by George Denison and W.'P. Dillingham while they aro in tho
'East.Francis B. Smith, engineer of tho
San Francisco Bridge Company, Is herenow preparing the data for bis com-pany's bid for the construction of thoPcnrl Harbor drydock, bids for whichwill bo opened at Washington Fobru-ar- y

The specifications under whieh thobids for the Pearl Harbor dredgingwcro put in divide the estimatca-f- or
the work under four separate headsItems 1, 3, 4 and 5. The first item isfor tho dredging alone, nil of the ma-terials taken out to bo wasted. Item3 calls for a bid on conserving 450,000yards of the material dredged and thoplacing of it on tho Naval Stationsite. Item 4 cnlls for bids for thoplacing of 1,000,000 cubic yards of ma-terial on tbo Queen Emma site. Item5 calls for a price for tho placing of700,000 cubic yards of tho dredgedmaterial on tho Puulon site.
As nearly nil of the material tokenly Wm ne(TUtbo work which tho government will '
subsequently undertake, tlio pricesquoted by the bidders under Items 3,4 nnd 5 wcro taken into considerationin determining the lowest bidder.
Tho Hawaiian Dredging Companymade n flat bid of 10 cents a cubicyard for conserving tho material andplacing it on tho three sites namedin the specifications. Tho next low-est bidder, H. A. Perry, was 2 contsn cubic yard higher in the price de-
manded under these three items. Thothrco other bidders demanded a flatrnto of 28 cents for conserving thematerial,
The material mentioned in Items 4nnd 5 is for tho use of the Army Infilling the marsh land around PearlIInrl;or j0 jhqo ;t suitable for forti-fication sites. Without tho materialtho Army engineers would encounterserious difficulties in their work, so Itis considered practically a fftTegoiiA
conclusion tbnt contractirs will bo"rcqniied to conserve tho dredged ma-terial in nccordanco with tbo specifi-
cations.Tho contract price for tlio actual
dredging, $3,5Cft,000, will thercforo boWriMiRpd tn 4.100.000. tho extra$540,000 being for tho conserving anddelivery of 3.050,000 cubic ynnU ofdredgeil material at 1G cents por cubicyard.

lice of Appleton, Wis., concerning tho
death of his brother William Kal who
died thoro nftcr suffering sovero Injuriesin October last. Tho Chief of Policesends official reports of tho mattershowing that Kni attempted to climbbetween two freight enrs of a trainthat was standing across the street.Whilo doing so the engine backed andKnl's foot was crushed. He was atonco taken to tho Catholic hospital in
Appleton where all tho toes of thisfoot except tho great too were ampu-
tated. Ho seemed to stand the ordealvery well, but the next day he beganvomiting blood and later died fromhemorrhage. 'Tho Chief of Police states that whileho was in the hospital ho was allowedto sco his friends and that his roomwas constantly filled with flowers andfruit sent to him. The funeral waslargely attended. Tho cxpenso of itwas paid by the railroad company.

Mayor-elec- t Joseph J. Fern has filedbis answer to the election contest peti-tion brought against him somo t(me ago.In tho answer it is stated, as to thosoparagraphs which set out that tho petl- -
Honors aro all registered voters and allvoted, that tho defendant has no in- -'
formation which would' cnablo him tonffirm or deny this and thorcforo hodocs neither. He does however dcclarothat there aro no thirty of them resi-dent of nny ono election precinct with-in tho meaning of tho statute and thatthcroforo tho court is without jurisdic-tion to try tho enso. If howovcr thocourt decides that it has jurisdictiontno answer proceeds to deny cate-gorically every allegation of tho peti-tion upon which could bo basedia find-
ing that Lane nnd not Fern waselected.
Taking up the allegations as to eachprecinct wherein it is alleged that Lanereceived moro votes than tho officialreturns gnvo him, or Fern fewer, thesoallegations aro denied,
As to the allegations in regard totho Fourteenth Precinct of tho FifthDistrict upon which tho petition layssuch stress, tho precinct in which thopetition charges Willie Crawford withsuch Machinvelllan industry, consider-abl- o
space is devoted to this. As toall that part of this paragraph in whichit is alleged that Crawford influencedChinese voters who intended to vote forLano to voto for Aclii, tho answer saysit is irrelevant and scandalous and nsksthat it bo stricken from the rocord
Tho answer then proceeds to denythat in this precinct votes cast for Lanewore illegally rejected or counted forFern, or that votes illegally cast forFern were counted or him, or that theactual result was different from thatof tho official return. It is denied oninformation nnd belief that Crawfordkept tho tally sheet falsely or fraudu-lently or incorrectly, .or that ho pretend-ed to tally for Lano when in fact hesimply ran his pencil through a markalready there. It is denied on informa-tion and belief, that ho was in anyplace in connection with the pollingplace that ho didnot have a right tobe, but that ho was appointed by thoCounty of Oahu to represent it at thisprecinct polling place and Mb serviceswero accepted by tho Inspectors ofElection.
In conclusion it is admitted for thopurposes of this contest that Lano re-
ceived only 2188 votes in all, as thopetition alleges, instead of 2212 givenhim by the returns, but it is allegedthat Fern received 2220, ahd more. Thebill prays that tho petition may be dis-
missed, but in case tho court holds thatthero shall bo a recount in the pre-cincts in which the petition allegeserror, it prays that tho votes cast forFern but illegally or erroneously rejected may bo counted for him and thattho determination of who was electedshall abide the result. i

ANSWER IK THE KAUAI
An answer was filed yesterdi-- after-noon in tho Supreme Court in uie Kauaielection contest. The answer was filedby E. C. Peters, representing tho de-
fendant Baker. It is largely formal inits character, denying generally anyfraud, or that tho .contestant is entitledto tho certificate of election as auditor.As to the allegations of tho petitionthat in tho Lihuo precinct five votescast for Blake were not counted forhim but were counted for Baker, thoanswer says that the defendant is with-out sufficient information to either denyor affirm,, but leaves the petitioner to.his proof. However, It is alleged thatin tho Kenlin precinct thero were sevenmore votes counted for Blake than hois entitled to, sa that in any eventBaker, tho Republican candidato whowas elected on the fucO1 of the roturns,is entitled to the office.
Tho hearing of this case will followimmediately that of the hearing of thoFern case, which is set tq begin onMonday.

Acting Governor Mott-Smit- h hasgiven out for publication tho draftsof nmeadments to tho Organic Act andto tho Hawaiian laws which tho Gov-ernor sent him from San Francisco,nnd which ho has since presented in.modified form for introduction in Con-gress. Mr. Mott-Smit- h is advised byGovernor Prear that thero havo boonchanges in these drafts sinco ho sentthem.
Tho mosi important change comesin tho manner of sale of public lands,in which it is adUsed (that tho landshould bo cither given but through adrawing by lot, as it is dono on thomainland, or by auction, tho latterpractise nlone being tho rule here.
Anothor oxtrcmelv imnortnnt suppes- -

cided by the Land Commissioner. Ap-peal muy be taken to tho Governor,whoso decision will bo finnl. At pres-ent nn appeal of this kind may botaken to tho courts of the Territory.
A provision is inserted by whichpreference rights may be given toper-con- s
who hao resided on leased gov-ernment land and who wish to buy,the value on tho property to bo fixedby a board of appraisers.
In order to scttlo a slight cloud ontitle which might arise through thofact tint tho actual title to all publioland acquired at the timo of annexa-tion vests in tho Federal governmentand the Territory has acquired titloto property since then through ex-
change and otherwise, it is providedthat theso lands shallhavo tho same status as those acquiredthrough the joint resolution of annex-ation.
The setting nBido of forest rcseryesis n mnttter which is, according tovthotuggestion of Governor Frear, to boplaced entirely In tho hands of thoGovernor.
Changes in other laws and in otherprovisions of the Organic Act aro insubstance, as follows: An act provid-ing that the authority given thoPhilippino povcrnmont to aid railroadconstruction bo conforred on Hawaii,limiting tho amount of aid to bo givennny ono railway to $120,000, and thisby the gunnintco of not over four percent, interest on that amount. Thogovernment is to appoint two of thedirectors sfnd have other supervision oftlio operation of tho road.
In order to straighten out tho citi-zenship mix-u- p which was caused bythe naturalization of aliens by tholocal circuit courts, an amendment Isprovided that all so naturalized be-
fore Juno 29, 1006, shall bo deemedto have had the action taken by "court of competent jurisdiction. It isalso provided t,hat in the caso of tholapso of term of an appnintivo officerho shall hold ofllco till his successorshall havo qualified.
It is recommended that an net bopassed whereby land which has beent'iken from tho Territory for uso bytho Federal government may bo re-

Tho picture is a duplicate of thegreat painting of Correggto, "Jupltorand Antlope,' tho origlnnl of whichhangs In the mnnelous collection intho Louvre, being ono of tho,pricclesscanvases belonging to the Governmentof Trance.

do atat least t a. as much as they present
for tood. Such an Increase in crop production is posslblo with proper
motbods.There nto in tho United States propor, according to tho report, a trifle less
than 3,000,000 square miles of land surface, of which a little more than one fifth
is under cultivation. About a quarter is covered with forests, and a smaller
proportion with woods, young growth, and cut-ove- r land. With tho exception
of waste lands and a relatively small amount of mineral lands, all tho rest is
grazing land.Borne of tho most significant facts brought out wero tho following:
Tho soils of tho Unitod States, as measured by the yield of crops per aero,
aro not loBing their fortillty. Taking tho country as a wh'i nine out of, ten
counties are either holding their own In this respect or aro gaining in fertility,
this matter, one of tho first in importance to tho country, has been thoroughly
studied from more than ono point of view, and tho nbovo statement is mado with
ronfidence. Thoso parts of tho country wbich aro losing in fertility aio mainly
in tho nowly-scttlc- d regions, whero tho farmers aro drawing from tho original
fertility of tho soil and are not replacing it with fertilizers or practicing the
oiothod of rotation of crops. Theso areas are proportionately largest in tho
States of Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, Arkansas, and Oklahoma i. o, tho
western States of tho cotton belt, and in them aro found 44 per cent, of all
tacix lands in the country.Tho prosent low average yiold is In some part duo to careless farming, but
more generally to tho fact that land is cheap relative to farm labor. Tho highest
Tields per aero aro found in tho older northeastern States, whero land is rela-
tively high in value, and in tho arid regions of tho West, where water, tho es-
sential, is scarce.Tho soils are not, however, producing a half of what they should produco
rr what thov will soon bo required to produco if wo would nvoid buying our
foods clscwhoro in the future. Tho acreage of cultivated land is increasing
mneh more Blowly than tho population and can never bo moro than twice as
jrcat as at present, while by 'the end of tho present contury wo shall probably
have three times as many people to feed as now. Tho amount of our farm crops
is also increasing much moro Blowly than our population. An increnso in yield
that matter aro far behind Westernpot aero is therefore imperative. In wo
Europe, and as our soIIb aro at least equally rich it becomes a matter of caro
in the selection of seed, of fertilizing, and of qultlvation.r--

ONE LESSON FROM FLEET VOYAGE. k
It was a shamoful condition of affairs that made for tho bat.tletbip fleet to depend upon foreign bottoms for tho transportation of its coal
uring its long voyage, and Admiral Cowles is justified in bis demand for more.
,iollicrs for our navy, which would be seriously crippled for lack of them intime of war. But how easily tho problem might be solved by granting fairsubsidies tp American oceangoing steamships, which would not only help ro-
ntons our merchant marine, but would maintain always in readiness a fleet of
jolliers in prime condition for immediato naval sorvico in timo of war.According to the letters written tho Now York Herald by its correspondent
with tho fleet, the battleships have been on the verge of a coal famiuo from
the time thoy left American waters hero and tho delay in tho arrival of tho
colliers ot Manila threatened to tip up some of the ships.r

LAKE ANDQUEF NAVIGATION.
The project to unite the lakes 'with thd gulf, which has boon canvassed foryears, was tho subject of an Interesting address by James W Van Cleave, prcsbdent of tbo National Association of Manufacturers, before the National Riversand Harbors Congress at Washington recently. 'As a, preliminary to his ro'marks, Mr. Van Cloavo had no hesitation in declaring n preference for tho Lakes-t- o
tho-Qul- f project by wny of tho Mississippi river to all othcrvlocal waterwayschemes, because, ho said, it had a larger regioniiot only la nrert, but It popula-
tion and in natural resources, than any other single enterprise. Besides, he said,
It would contribute moro to tho country's "prosperity and wealth than wouldany othor project which was confined to ono .section. Ho, was nware, howover,of tho jealousy of locality nnd of tho desire of each section to give priority to
its own particular scheme. Tor that reason, ho said, tho Nntional Rivers andHarbors Cougrcis, which took tho 'entire country Into its calculations, had a
mission which made a powerful appeal to all men who "think contincntally."Those who wero interested in the extension of manufacturing and in tho length-
ening of the United States' lead over tbo other industrial countries in this field
must also think and plan contincntally.Mr. Vnn Cleave, in giving tho reasons why manufacturers all over tho
country and a profound concern in tho work the congress aimed to accom-plish, said that with the progress of invention nnd tho adoption of labor-savin- g
devices, production In tho factories, to a steadily increasing degree, outran home
consumption. Ho declared that in order that the operation of mills in peribdiof trade stagnation as well as in periods of trade activity may be continued, theprices of American products at tbo great centers of consumption, both at home
and abroad, must be lowered, and that tho cheapening of tranBporation wouldliolp to do that. Tho readiest and most effective wny to do that and at thesamo time quicken tho transit between producer and consumer, ho said, wasto put tho navigablo wntorwajs of the country in n shape in which thoy coulddo their share of the work, lie pointed out why the manufacturers had a largestake in tho work which tho Congress alms to promote. "Tho country's millsand factories," Ho said, "represent a capital of $10,000,000,000. They employ0.000,000 of persons, give them $3,500,000,000 in wages annually, and fashion$10,000,000,000 of materials yearly Into products worth $17,000,000,000. Thexports of manufactures in 1008 reached $750,000,000. In (ho amount of monoyinvested in it and in the number of persons which it employes, manufacturingis the second greatest of tho country's interests, agriculture being first. In thovolume and value of its manufactures the United States nearly equals its threenearest competitors combined Great Britain, Groimnny and Prance."
Speaking from tho national side of tho question, Mr. Van Cleave said thattho organization of which ho was president was in hearty sympathy with theaim of the Nntional RivcrB nnd Harbors Congress to obtain an annual govern-
mental appropriation of $50,000,000 for river and harbor improvement through-
out tho country. "My own experience, as well as that of every othor manu-
facturer in tho country," he said, "shows tho harm which comes from theInability of tho railways to handle tho traffic promptly. During tho past tenor twclvo months wo havo had no complaint on this score, for tho traffic hasfallen off. But the rapidity with wbich the number of idle cars is falling offwarns us manufacturers that the old traffic congestion at our business centerswill soon return. Under tho impulse which trade has received in the past fewweeks we must be prepared to seo the old embargo at our big railway stations ,by
tlmo of 1909 nt tho latest." Ho gave as an imperative reasonwhy tho manufacturers must use all their influence to get a greater increase intransportation facilities, tho fact that in tho last twenty years tho volume ofthe country's manufactures had increased 10O per cent, whilo the mileage of therailways had gained but 45 per con. Many of the railway chiefs, ho said,acknowledged that the rolling stock and the terminal facilities could not grow
last enough to meet the demand. "Thus," ho declared, "we aro compelled tcbring the waterways into requisition 'to supplement the work of the Toads." Thorailroad companies, he said, would not oppose tho project. In fact, he said,somo of the railway officials would probably help. Ho maintained that therewas no necessary antagonism between tho rivers and the railways, and he arguedthat waterway improvement not only would expand and diversify the country'sactivities, but would furnish more work for tho railways instead of less. Thoquestion, he said, was a national ibbuc, and ho pledged the support of his asso-
ciation in the work of the congress.-4

5 A Word for, the TeacherThe --Nation. .
Money is not all. Both the teacher and tho minister of the gospel find.'large compensations in tho interest and stimulation of their work; they g
to nccoptJan income far smaller than that of the successful lawyer, mer-
chant, or banker. "Those are fortunate," savs Professor Palmer, "who aroable to devote their lives to its enriching Btudy." Yet even in towns whichcan not afford at present to pay teachers suitable salaries much may bo dono-t-
make tho calling more attractive. Tn many places, particularly outside ptNew England, the profession is not highly regarded. Tho prosperous pork-pack- er
or manufacturer of steel trails ilooks with ill concealed contempt on aman or woman who deliberately chooses n career in which the acquisition ofwealth is impossible; and tho pro'sperous9'jjork-packc- r is likely to Bet tha socialtone. As a result, the teacher and his family, who may,bo among the mostcultivated and agreeable people of tho place, receive littlo or no social consid-eration. This phrnso we use in its broadest sense. y?& would not suggest thatthe schoolmaster and his wife would bo Tendored any happier or moro contentedwith their lot if thoy were patronized by Mrs. Porkpaeker nnd invited to jointhe rabble at her pink teas. But we believo that the schoolmaster and mis'tresswould have a more dignified and enjoyable career if their intelligent and well-
educated neighbors would take the trouble to seek them out and discover thelraccompllshments and attainments. Tho teacher is usually modest and retiring,nnd is only too keenly aware that ho can not freely contribute moner to tho--
community enterprises. But ho can, if called on, generally offer what is oven,more valuable in the conduct of boards, committees and clubs devotion andtrained mind. The teacher ought, outside tho walls of his school, to be onetho most useful and well esteemed of persons; if he is thrust into a corner, the-faul- t

It was just about half way throughtho second period when Elisha An-

It wns a grand sight to watch thosoMaile forwards as they camo down thofield, cleverly passing from one to thoother, .each p'ass being taken as un-erringly 'as it was given. But it wasequally grand to see how the Puna-hous bunched up and stopped everyconcerted rush. ,

J THE SECOND GAME.'The ball was no sooner kicked off
than it became apparent that tho Dia-mond Heads wero in fino form. EddioFernandez wns his oid self and was assure and clever with his feot as ho wasuncertain last time. Every player show.cd up the same way and, with grandteam work to aid their individual ex-
cellence, the sparklers looked like win-ners from the start.
The winners had tho wind thornin this half and they soon made itwarm for Bfckard who was kept busy.He was successful in saving until af.ter about ten minutes of play Ander-son calmly laid hands on the ball andthen kicked himself with much vehomence. As this took place right infront of goal there, was a clear penaltykick. All the players except the goalkeeper lined behind tho ball and Ed- -
aie fernanucz directed it neatlythrough tbp goal with his foot.

James Kuliko soemi tohavo been the principal authority asto the alleged irregularities of WlllloCrawford in tho fourteenth precinct ofthe fifth, nnd Bcrtclmnnn ns to tho Wai-kan- e
and other Koolnu precincts. ButNngnran Fernandez, according to thooverwhelming testimony, was the mostactive agent in disseminating this information. One after another of thesopetitioners testified that they know lit-tle but what Nagarnn told them. In alarge number of cases it appeared thattyigaran told the potittonor nil or mostof what the petitioner knew concerningtho matter, nnd having thus informedhiin and induced a beliof in tho infor-mation, Nngnran would ask them tosign and swear to the potition on infor-mation nnd belief.

tioner had heard of the matters alleged(n, tho potition at tho fishmarket, forono place, that seems to havo been avery fountain of learning on tho sub- -

although he hnd heard NagaranFernandez on tho subject.,
P. W. Burns frnnkly admitted thathe had neither information nor beliofConcerning the irregularities and fraudcharged in the petition, but lie noaheard that Lane had been defeateduhfnirly, nnd ho thought if ho had ho"ouglit to havo another chance, so hosigned the petition.
Mephlstopholes Wllllo Crawford.James Kulikc, whoso namo heads tho
list of tho petitioners, gave tha mostdirect testimony as information 01iregularities. Ills is tho fourteenth oftho Fifth. He said that Crawford hadoffered to bot him that Achi wouldwin in tho precinct, Crawford hadbeen within the polling plnco as a clerkall day. Ho had kept tho ofilcial tallyduring n paTt of tho count, until hisejes fnijed him, nnd In tallying thatho feigned to mark a tally for Lanowhen in fact ho did not so mark it,Crawford has also spoken to four orfiyo Chinese, voters in Chinese as thoycame ur vote. Kuliko asked one of thoChinese, ns ho camo out of tho booth,what Crawford had said to him and thoChinese had replied that be said,','JJon't forget our bald-heade- d friondCnthcart; he is tno oniy ono 1 nraworking for." On another occasionduring tho day, according to Kuliko,Crawford had announced his partisanship for Cathcart.
The court began tho afternoon session early, one o'clock. On tho re-
assembling of tho court at that hourChiof Justico nartwcll announced thattho court was ready to hear orgumenton ,tho threo propositions of law thathave boon montlonod above, but bothsides suggested that as tho petitionersworo all In court, it would save theirtime nnd convenience them if theywc.ro examined now to whatever oxtenttl5o court desired them examined. Thissuggestion wns acted on. One of thepetitioners testified to hearing thatvotes in ono of tho Koolau prccii ctswhich had beon improporh mnrkod fordoputy sheriff or supervisor, but prop-erly marked as to mayor and othercandidates wero rejected altogether.As nothing of this sort had been airlegod in the potition. Watson movedthat this testimony bo stricken out.This the court declined to do, nn theground that while not material to the(ruestlon now engaging the nttcntlonqf the court, it might be mado materialon other points by nmondment.
Mayor eleet Fern was present )ncourt all day, hut John C. Lano did notput in an appearance. Acting At-

i, Tricks of Chauffeurs.row Mortgaged cars.Hacks doing Out,
!t Opium Smuggling.Bum Detectives.
cv iv wi" e f v ''w
Thcro arc tricks in every trade, and tlio public chauffeurs have theirs. One
is to Bend nn order to a rival garago for an nuto and start it out into the
suburbs on a. wild gooso chase. Occasionally tlio jokers only Bend their victims
as far as the Union Grill or tlio Advertiser ofllcc. It is getting so that a chauf-
feur feels like anybody who orders a machine from a distance,though Bomo of them are adopting tho plan of calling op your telcphono number,a moment or two after lias been ordered, so ns to make suro. Thatgenerally docs the, business.
J J iJ JSpeaking aulos, tboy aro coming thick and fast and, as a tboy aro U yard for salaries and llv.
intr furnished.paid for. It subjects a man to tho chortle direct when ho takes an auto onpartial payments, giving the required mortgage on tho machino for tho balanceduo. Society insists that, if n man enters the prosperity rqnks with a run-
about or a touring ear, lie shall not do sd under falto pretences. Ho must havetho prosperity to back tlio emblem up. aro fow of tho local autos regis-
tered in tho doomsday book. Most of these are owned, so to speak, by thehackmen, who buy on easy payments and let tho machino pay for itself.
S S 5 S
Hacks aro slowly going out, their principal trado being in tho linowhere tho autos don't compete. Onco you hnvo tho auto hnbit tlio hacks,though driven by a son of JCimshl, don't go. Thcro is moro than ono reasonfor thiB. Tho other is that a serious young man vho used tosit on tho back beat of a hack, holding his girl so sho couldn't full out if shetried, i'b bathed in a Hood of glorious light by tho first machino that approaches.Uvea tho fond look in his oyc and rico powder on tho shoulilor of his coat, aregiven to a mocking world by tho glnro acetylene. Jically, a hack ought tocarry locomotive headlights on each sido to offset tho auto lamps. But I look
for a now slump in tho hack business now that the runabouts' hnvo added in-
jury to insult by slamming into hacks Into at night nnd tossing one's best girl,junk slippers and all, over a haymow into a duck pond.
W l5 w cI am wondering how soon opium smuggling will start up again. Severn
fortunes were made iu it hero during past ycarB, somo of which I know aboutlint won't tell. Twenty years ago it was part of the business of tho CustomHouso at night to watch Punchbowl and other heights bore for waving lanterns.That was tho usual signal to close-reefe- d schooners in tho odlng, laden withpoppied Bleep. Landings were made now and then at Waikiki beach, but morooften in Kalihi bay. Onco upon a timo boats came in that bay from a Bchooncr,landing, in ono night, $150,000 worth of the drug, put up in tins worth $40 each.There were somo big inputs, too, at Kaneoho bay, but invoices of groceries,kerosene and liquors coming through t,he Custom Houso nlso contained them.1' recall ono liquor dealer, not now in business, who used to import opium anddeliver it in wino cases. Ono day ho loaded up his delivery cart with tho usua.liquor eonsignment'and ono box of contraband, tho latter addressed to Ham FatXcc. Tho driver was a son Lusitania, gifted with a penetrating mind. Hedelivered all the wet goods, but took the Chincso package home. The next day21am Fat Leo Ailed and asked for his box. The driver was summoned, where-upon the liquor man said:
"What did you with that box I gave you yesterday for Ham l'at Lcof '"Took it home," replied the driver with engaging frankness."What did youlo that for!""Wanted to boo what was in it.""Havo you got it nowt"
i, "Naw," replied tho driver elicerfully."What did you do with it" , ' '
f "Sold it." " - v.? -
"What did you do wilh the money?""Paid up tho mortgage on my houso and put tho rest in tho bankj'There nppcarcd to bo nothing further to say except to discharge tho driVor
with profanity. Ho toon after joined the polieo force, ns tho next best thing.Policemen were always doing solnothing in tho opium line. I remember
when a lot of dopo was captured and put into their custody. They locked it inajecll "to await tho action the courts." Somo weeks after, when tho stun"was taken out, it had turned into poi and 'molasses, or olso tlio pollco had putthat stufl into tlio tins nftcr taking out tho dopo and selling it.
I wonder if all theso good old times are going to look in on Honoluluagain, now that Federal bars are up agair.st legal importations of opium.

The detective service in this town is so utterly worthless that, if I had it,I would trado it off to uso Col. Spalding's pet simile for a darkey's noto,written on a slato. You tako a Sherlock Holmes from tho station, hand him asuit of clothes marked with a thief's name, givo him tho thief's pawn ticket,his calling card, a photograph of him, a scrapbook containing a full publisheddescription of tho marauder and tho number of his room in tho Kakaako Hotel,and ask the dctcctivo what he deduces from it all, and ho will make up his
mmind, after a week's cogitation, that ho has a clue. And that is tho last youwill over hear about it. One Pinkerton man would bo worth a regiment of thopolitical t.Icuths that grow in our own pastures like human toad-stool-

MAUI MD HAWAII
COUNTY BUDGETS
Supervisors of tho other countieshavo been busy getting ready for thocoming year, and both Maul and Ha-
waii counties have made out theirbudgets tor 190l and had them passedou and approved.
Tho Hawaii budget is a very com-
plete document with estimated incomoand expenditure figured dowu to a veryfino point. Thov estimate that theirincome for the coming year will bo$180,098.58, and that they will expendnnlv J3.178.20 charceablo to tho Gen
eral fund, which will leave a surplusof $y;i,58.as to bo transterreu to roaufund or othorwiso disposed of.
In comparison with tho actual ex-
penditure during 11)08" of moro than$98,000 from the general fund, tho esti-mate for 1009 is some $5000 less. Thisis explained by tlio absence on tlio es-
timate siifo of such items as "Kau lnvaflow, $4,027.50." Thero aro severalother biualler items left out, includedin which aro premium on bonds, andtho Honolii road.
Tbo Maui budget expresses only tlieestimated expenditure for 1909( andthis comes to $153,100. No mention ismade of tho probable income. All un-
certain expenses aro figured in roundnumbers. Maintenance of prisoners isput down nt $500, as also is coroner'sinquest expense, wuile tlio county oncinecr is expected to havo about athousand dollars' worth of incidentals,
Thov evidently don't suffer muchfrom pauperism on Maui or Molokai,for ono item of estimated expenditurerends "Sup. and Malnt. of indigents,$50." Tho Waialuku town clock is notoverlooked, and $60 is set aside for thatimportant civic institution., In both cases tho budgets wero pass-ed without nnv criticism, and thosupervisors adjourned to meet againafter New Year's Day.

ernment building, tbo United States"will build separate structures forAlaska, Hawaii and tho Philippine Is-

The Government of Canada hag alsooutlined its plnnfc for participation inthe 1009 fair nnd will have ono ofthe largest exhibit places ou thegrounds, covering n site 150 by 300feet.
All of the countries bordering ontho Pacific Ocean are now actively engaged in preparing exhibits, and thoreports mat nave ucen received oythe exposition management are highlysatisfactory. Fine sites bnve beenheld for the use of Japan and Cluna,nnd the Oriental display will bo onoof the big features of the 1909 world'sfair. The .Topaneso Government hasshown a very friendly interest in thoexposition, nnd nssnrances have beenreceived by the Scattlo Japanese as-
sociation from high officials of thegovernment that Japan will be wellrepresented.
Tho association recently sent a re-
quest to tho Government of Japan thatsomo of tho ships of the Japanese navybo stationed iu Seattle harbor duringtho exposition period. Assurancesliavo been received that this will bodone, nnd it is expected that at leasttwo of tho battleships will be orderedto Seattle early in June to anchor intho harbor with the Pacific fleet oftho United States navy, which w.ill bostationed at Seattle during tho entiretimo of tho exposition.
The Exposi-tion is the first "world's fair to boheld for the purpose of exploiting thocountries of the Pacific Ocean, andevery countrv whose shores aro washed by the Pacific Ocean is a partnerin tlio great enterprise. The touraround world of Atlantic fleet in which foot- -

The Expositionwill bo a big factor in bringing thoimportanco of this trado to tho atten-tion of commercial interests represent-ing all parts the world. The Pa-cific countries have grasped thisopportunity to exploit tbolr resourcesand the fair from this willbe n succet.s.

I hada list made of tho properties along thebeach, showing the assessed values, sothat if I wns called upon nt any timoto Bupply information concerning thoproperties I could do so.

Albert Anderson, a sailor, was founddead on tho sidewalk on Ltliha street,nenr Kukui street, about 0 o'clock lastevening, and at first there vWas a sus-
picion that the man had" committedsuicide, but later investigation causedtho police to withhold this belief untila chemical analysis of the stomach'scontents can be made.
Officer Robert Parker, Jr., camo
ncro'S tho body nnd, calling severalcolored men from a nearby houso tolook after it, hd went io tho nearestpatrol box and sent for tho patrolwagon. Tho body wns taken to thoQueen's HospHnl first, ns a precaution,nnd, the man being pronounced dead,tt was then laken to the morgue.
When found there was a strong smellof" carbolic ncld emanating from thobody. At the morguo a bottle containing a solirtion of carbolic acid wasfound in a hip pocket. Tho cork hadcomo out and the contents had spilledon tho man's legs and burned thembadly. Tho stomach rcvtaled no tracesof acid, and there wcro no burns ontho lips, the mouth or throat. Thostomach held but n small amount offluid, nnd tho lining showed tho rav-nge- s
committed by strong drink. Thoexamination showed that the" man hadnot eaten much, if anything, lately.Chemist Duncan will finish his exam-ination today, the result of which mayshow whether Anderson camo to bisdeath ns a suicide or by naturalcauses.
According to Alexander Craig, col-
ored, both he nnd Anderson were work-ing on tho schooner Helenc nil day upto fi o'clock, and then .went togetherto Craig's house oh Liliha street. Anderson left there shortly beforo 0o'clock. Ho was found on tho sidewalk a fdw minutes afterward, dead.Whether he slipped on the pavemeatand fractured his skull will bo determined when tho autopsy is concluded.
Among the personal effects found inthe deceased's pockets were papersshowing that he was a member of thoSailors' Union of tho Pacific, a Com-
panion of tho'Ordpr of Owls, nnd thatho was probnbly a member of tho crewof the schooner Ethel Zone, which ar-
rived hero from Eureka on February27. Thero was also an order on themaster of tho Ethel Zano for $5, payable to II. Wengard, proprietor of thScandia Hotel, Eureka, dated October23, 190S. ,
The Sailors' Union card is ono ofthe special "Lockout nnd Strike" doc-
uments and bears the number 3281. Ontho reverse side appears tho follow-ing:
"This card, signed by the secretaryand stamped with the seal of the Sailors' Union of tho Pacific, is evidencethat tho bearer performed his full dutyin tho strike inaugurated Juno 11,3908, nnd tho lockout declared pre-

'FLEET'S LONE TUP
COSTS 127,500,000
WASHINGTON, December 13. Ontho top of the list of things that costmoney stands tho modern battleship.Tho estimate of $4,454,500, submittedto Congress by tho Navy Department,to cover repairs to bo mado to severalsliipi during tho fiscal year that willbegin on July 1 next; is not oven abagatelle in comparison with the costof tho world-girdlin- cruise that willend on 'Vynshlngton's birthday.
During the cruiso not less thanwill havo vanished with the
smoke from the funnels of AdmiralSpcrry's sixteen bulldogs and tho aux-
iliaries accompanying them. Carefulestimates show that it costs nbout$17,107,000 to mnintnln the battleshipsof that fleet and that the maintenancecharge on account of the auxiliaries isnot less than $5,000,000. Tho shipswill bo gone for substantially one anda fourth years. Tn round numbers,therefore, tho cost will be substantial-ly $27,500,000.
The estimate as to the cost of thocruiso docs not include charges thatcould reasonably bo put to the main-tenance account. To make the costappear just as it should, each ship'sproportion of tho wholo expenseshould be shown, which would probablyrun the cost up to $60,000,000 becausothe fleet constitutes nearly two-third- s
of the entire navy.

"Most people say the flavor of pineapple is delicious, but- - the fruit is so
