Frank James Receives Mysterious Letter
Detectives Still at Wook
Frank James, the -train-robber, re-
ceived the following letter, containing
four new bank bills
Frank James, ESQ.,
DEAR SIR; Please accept the enclosed
as a memento of the late Frisco train
robbery of October 25th.
Yours truly,
JIM CUMMINGS.
The enclosed consisted of four unsign-
ed National-bank notes made for the
Merchants j. Planters National Bank
of Sherman, Mo. The notes were one
$50 and three $40 bills, the latter of which
had not been detached from each other.
The letter was written in an evidently dis
guised hand and was mailed from st. Joe
Nov. 3.
Manager Damsel, of the express com
pany, was shown the above dispatch, and
said that the detectives were already fol-
lowing up the clew contained in it, but
he did not know whether the money stol-
en- Oct. 25 contained that received by
Frank James or not. He would ascertain,
however, as soon as possible. He had
two theories in regard to the affair. The
real TDDDGr nhO S6ub lub tbbter W TURN
suspicion on James and put the detec-
tives on the wrong trail, or else some
overzealous detective really thought Jim
Cummings and Frank James were one,
and wanted to see what effect the recep-
ton of the letter and bank notes would
have upon him and what disposition he
would make of them. The matter would
be investigated and might lead to some
interesting developments.
Superintendent DGmsel and Robert
Pinkerton, the detective, visited the
grand jury room in very mysterious
manner. No definite information regard
ing the object of the visit can be obtain
ed, but the inference is that they either
asked the jury TO indict Fotheringham
the messenger who was recently robbed,
warrant for his arrest. His mother Is
at st. Louis, and it is understood
or requested the jury to issue a bench
that she will take legal measures TO pro
cure the release of her son from the Gus
tody of the express people, and to pre-
vent this it is presumed the express of
tcials took the action they did.

Police Court.

There we're six charges OF drunk on
the docket Saturday, each yielding the
usual six dollars, namely, d, Malo, Ke-
liihapa, Kekina, Neleha, Annie (w.)
and Lau I'm.
Kikihi pleaded not guilty to charge
Of disorderly conduct, but it was proved
that he took a bottle of gin to a house
and asked the wahines to drink, then,
when they refused TO do so, made use
of foul language. He got hard labor
for 4S hours with $3.50 costs.
George Bowman was committed to
the Asylum, on the evidence of DR.
Webb that he was insane.
The trial of Kahelemauna, for keep
ing a disorderly house near the Kaka
ako salt works, continued from the pre-
vious day. The evidence showed that
it was regular hula and rowdy ranch
and that many of the licensed hack
drivers act as runners for it. Defend
ant was remanded for judgment unit
the sth inst, TO enable the Court tc
visit the locality.

Prior to the final adjournment of the
October Term on Saturday last, a writ
was filed by the presiding Justice
preston j. in the case of the King
VS.. Ichabod b. Peterson, authorizing
the Marshal to release defendant
from custody. 1t will be remembered

preliminary examination was com
mitted for trial by his Honor r. f.
Bickerton, Police Justice, under a
charge of embezzlement. The AT,
torney-G General having certified to the

indictment led it to resort to the only
open course, that of discharging the
accused. Mr.. Peterson, up to the
time of his commitment, was Assistant
Postmaster General of the Kingdom
Another writ Of discharge was asC
filed in the case of the King VS.. Ain

Electricity in the Jubilee.

The electric light is to take an i'm.
portant position in the Jubilee cclebra-
ton. By the Alameda yesterday there
arrived costly machinery and apparatus
for this purpose, together with Mr.. A,
w. Smith, an expert in the employ of
the Thompson-H Houston Electric Light
Company of New York, who will con
duct the operations. Not only will
the mere lighting capacity Of electricity
be displayed, but beautiful effects will
be produced by combinations Of
colored globes. There will probably
be an illumination surprising in SPLEEN
dor any that has hitherto been at
tempted here. For such an event the
credit will be mainly due to the enter
prise of Mr. ID. P. Smith, who has
been here as agent of the above com
pany for several months. AS special
plant is to be employed the exhibition
will doubtless give the Honolulu public
grander idea of electricity as an illum-
inant than there has hitherto been an
opportunity for forming Mr.. A. w.
Smith, the conductor, had charge of
electric light exhibitions lin New Or
leans and Philadelphia. The company
referred to above was one of the first
in the field of electric lighting, and is
always to the front in competing for
contracts to light cities, towns or build
inps.

Colonel Ludlow doubt about the adviSability
OF extending city privileges To the streets OF Le-
Droit park ought to serve u warming TO per.
Sons who are now laying out suburban tracts
for residence purposes. y city whose antiquity,
or its romantic associations, may be depended
on to atone for any lack o: symmetry, can afford
to have streets twisted and turned like cow
paths; but u city of the comparative youth of
is its artistic beauty must have more regard for
the geometric unities. Its streets must be OF
uniform widths and laid out at certain angles
To each other; IL must have building-lines and
system of grading. These requirements more
over, are not confined 10 the aesthetic side OF the
subject; there is a practical side in which they
play an equally important part For purposes
oi sewering, watering and lighting il is desira-
BILE that there be as much regularity as possible
in the laying-out of the distric5 TO be supplied
with cOnveniences. All these things ought to
be considered by persons who are creating su-
burban villages with the idea of their incorpOra-
ton with the city at some future day. AT this
moment several such schemes are on foot, but
In some OF them the projectors show more con-
Germ about the staking-oE OF their land so as to
present the most attractions to purchasers than
about adapting them tor as city lots at a
later stage. In cases where no buildings have
yet been started, 1t would be possible for the
owners OF lots to unite, have the necessary sur
Nev made and rectiiy their boundaries now
while such changes are practicable and compar-
atively inexpensive. Every dollar spent in this
precaution to-day will be worth two when the
city extends Its borders TO the edge OF one Of
these out-oftown settlements
