A PARENT ON THE SLING SHOT.

EDIToR BULLETIN;-As the parent
of Il child who has been injured, and
possibly permanently, by this per-
nicious habit of "sling shotting"
among our boys, allow me to thank
you for your article of Wednesday.
Words cannot express with sufficient
force the alarming nature of this
practice. From the occurrences of
the past few days, the streets are
rendered really insecure to school
children, and passengers in car
riages, as they are continually liable
to injury from these little, deadly
sling shots. Arc the police too in
efficient to put stop to this, or
is there no law under which the
sling shelters can be punished!
Certainly, it appears to me that
these evil-doers could be snugly
taken care under the Statute, that
against malicious mischief-for such
it is without doubt. | sincerely
hope you will continue to prick the
police to a sense of their duty, in
suppressing this evil, and thus-ii
they are awake to your appeals-cut
in the bud, that which would prove
pernicious plant if allowed to come
TO bloom. j. I. ID.

CHICKEN STEALING.

Chicken-stealing has become un-
usually prevalent. For the two or
three weel,s Immediately preceding
Chinese New Year such thing was
expected, expectation being based
on former experience; but a con-
tinuation after that period has COM
pletely passed is unusual. Scarcely
a day passes but one or more per-
sons report chickens lost during the
previous night. 1t is the duty of
the police to catch the thieves,
which everybody knows; but how
to catch them is not easily decided.
The thieves are not in the habit of
announcing their intentions before
hand, so that it is not known where
they are going to operate. To
place a policeman in charge Of
every lot of chickens within the city
limits is an impossibility. All the
police can do is to be as vigilant as
possible, and if they are so, they
cannot fail TO drop across some
thief, sooner or later, to be made an
example of.

ABOUT TRUSTS.

EDITOR BuILETIN:-I see by the
latest news from the Coast that
bill has passed the Legislature in
California against trusts. In addi-
ton to the common law it provides
that all trusts or combinations may
be punished by fine, forfeiture of
franchise, and Imprisonment of per-
sons. Foreign corporations enter
ing into compact are to be debar-
red from doing business in Califor-
MIA, and to pay a fine of So 1000. 1t is
made the duty of the Attorney-Gen-
eral to enforce the Law. How would
such a law do here for our Insurance
trust? We now have to pay about
double the rates we did two years
ago, owing to the combination of the
companies and agents here.

HAWAIIAN CONSULATE AT SAN
FRANCISCO,

The San Francisco Examiner"
in a recent issue has the following
account of the Consulate of Hawaii
at San Francisco
The Consulate of. Hawaii has been
for three and half years in the
hands of ID. A. Mckinley, whose
Office is at 3O2 California street.
Mr.. Mckinley was the American
Consul at Honolulu for four and
half years, but was suspended by
Cleveland in 81. Then King Kala-
kaua sent him here as Consul-Gen-
eral. The difference, by the way,
between Consul-General and q
plain everyday Consul is that the
former has jurisdiction over several
subordinate Consuls. Sometimes
these are appointed by the home
Government, sometimes by the Con-
sul-General. Mr.. Mckinley has two
under him--one at Port Townsend,
and one at Portland, who are APP
pointed by the King. His district
covers California, Oregon, Nevada
and Washington Territory.
The reciprocity treaty between
Hawaii and the United States makes
his position very onerous. He must
oversee the shipment of all goods to
Hawaii, take the names of shippers
and consignees, value of the ship
ment, whether or not the goods are
free, and if dutiable the amount of
duty. He files away the statistics
of all this, and rs there are from two
to three hundred shippers on every
monthly steamer, from fifty to
seventy-fve on the through Sydney
steamer that touches at Honolulu,
while sailing vessels take freight
every week, making, all told, about
S3,OOO,O0O worth of goods each
year, it is evident the post is not ar
easy one. One of his most frequent
duties is to give information to peo
pie who are going to Hawaii.
He also ships and discharges
sailors under the Hawaiian flag. As
the ships displaying that flag are in
creasing rather rapidly this duty i:
becoming an important one. Dur
ing the time he has held the position
ten or twelve vessels have been pu
under it, and during the last montl
there were two. Mr.. Mckinley is
portly gentleman with a smooth
shaven face, who has an cXceptiona
memory for exact dates and alway
mentions incidentally the year
month and day upon which an,
event took place.

WANTS TO KNOW.

EDIroR BULLETIN:-In the bull
LETIN Feb. 18th, is an article from
the Hilo Record on the subject of
voting for Mobiles and Representa-
tives at the next election. In the
article appears a sentence which
reads, "The only available candi-
dates as we now hear are Dr. Wight
and j. NJ. Horner." Now then, Mr..
Editor, as the Chinese question will
have to be settled at the next Legis-
lature satisfactorily to the people
regardless of the self-chosen few, |
would ask if it was not Mr.. j. nj.
Horner who in the course of his
speech at one of the planters meet
ings held in Honolulu some three or
more years ago, who said that "lf q
white man could not compete with a
Chinaman, he ought to go under" "
and much more to that effect. The
gentleman by his late writings in the
BULLETIN would lead one to believe
that he takes a great interest in the
welfare of the human family

his being either true philanthrop-
ist or Christian; for most highly

TRUST MATTERS.

The following is from private
letter, written in San Francisco to a
gentleman here:
The position of those who are in
terested in the American Sugar Re-
tinery is by no means to be envied.
1t is in the middle of a suit which
will undoubtedly result in canceling
the charter of the company, and in
closing the doors of the refinery. 1t
is in even a worse condition than the
New York relineries which belong to
the Trust, for the laws of California
regarding corporations, are the more
stringent. Like the North River
Refinery the charter of the Ameri-
can will be Cancelled, receiver will
be appointed, and its doors will be
closed. This may be expected to
happen within two or three months
at the latest. The Havemeyer and
Elder Refinery will soon be in si-
milar predicament. Public senti-
ment has dccreed against trusts, and
the Courts have found that their eX-
istence is contrary to law. BY this
time the American Refinery should
have filed its answer TO the complaint
made against 1t; the argument will
soon be heard and q decision rem
dered, which there is every reason
to believe will be against the corpo-
ration. You may now we'll consider
how your interests Will be affected.
1t is quite time that planters began
to look the issue straight in the face.
They have agreed for a term of
years to sell their sugar to the Ame-
rican Refinery Company. 1t is a
moral certainty that this corporation
will, in few months, be prevented
from doing business. AS matter
of fact it has no legal existence to-
day. Should the company fail to
pay for the sugar purchased, then
planters have no redress whatever.
They cannot sue concern that has
no existence in law, and the result
would, in any case, be futile, for the
American Refinery Company has no
assets upon which to realize. 1t has
decided all its property to a few per-
sons whose business address is Wall
street, New York. The American
Refinery Company-so-called, by
courtesy, not by right-has no pro-
perty and owns no refinery. 1t has
given these away in return for paper
certificates that are Of no CONNER
clal value. 1t is advisable that the
planters should transact their busi-
ness with some substantial concern.
They should run no risks, and can
not afford to lose payment for any
cargoes of their sugar. AS the
American Refinery Company has no
existence in law, the contracts made
with it by the planters, for the sale
and purchase of sugar, are void and
of no effect. 1t is doubtful even
whether they can be protected 10y
any contract with the same concern,
no matter how it is drawn up. This
phase of the question has not form
erly been discussed, but it is Of the
most vital Importance, and planters
would do well to consider the adYi-
stability of making new arrange
ments with those who are really the
responsible. parties. They are now
in an unfortunate position, contract
ing with an illegal body that has no
standing, 10 responsibilities and no

The Memphis appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1886-1890, 1889-05-25

WASHINGTON, May 24.-Assistant Sec
rotary Bussey has rendered a decision IN
the pension claim of William Powell, late
OF Company D, Forty-seventh Pennsyl-
yania Volunteers. The claimant in his
application alleges that on January o,
1866, while in Camp Cadwalader, at Phila-
delphia, Pa, waiting to be mustered out
and paid, he was walking in the barracks,
when a corporal OF his company threw at
him gallon demijohn, which struck him
on the left leg under the knee. inilcting a
severe wound, from which he has never
recovered. The claim was originally re-
jected on the grounds that the injury was
received after the applicants discharge
from the service and that il in service the
injury had no connection with his mill
tary duty, and hence was not reasonable.
From this latter view the Assistant Secre-
tary dissents and directs that, ii upon fur
ther examination, it is found that the
claimants actual separation from the SER
vice did not occur till after he incurred
the disability, though his discharge was
dated some two weeks previous thereto, O
pension be given him.
Secretary Bussey also rendered favor
able decision in the case OF Sarah futile,
widow OF Josiah futile, late OF Company
. Il, Sixty-fourth Ohio Volunteers, and
Mohn Cox, late Of Company Q, Fifty-ninth
ONO Volunteers In the former case the
question involved was one OF fact. In the
case OF Cox the records show that while
running the claimant was tripped by {
comrade, falling heavily and breaking his
collar-bone. Following the decision il
the zimmerman case, pension is granted
