THE JAP WAS RETURNED.
THE NANIWA GIVES UP ITS
CONVICT REFUGEE.
Diplomatic Correspondence Ends in the
Delivery of the Prisoner. He
Resists Arrest.

In recognition of the request of the
Hawaiian Provisional Government, the
Japanese warship Naniwa, through in
struCtions from the home authorities,
landed on Hawaiian soil, this morning,
the japanese convict lmada Yosaku
who escaped from his keepers on March
10th last, and by swimming to the
Naniwa took refuge under his native
flag.
YoSaku was convicted some months
ago of the murder of IA Countryman at
Waihee, Maui, and given a life sen
tence which he was serving at the time
of his escape.
A protest was made to the Japanese
Consulate at the convicts retention on
the warshlp, the officers of which refus-
ed to deliver him to the Hawaiian
police, but the protest was of no avail.
Correspondence with the home govern
ment regarding the case was then taken
up by our foreign office, that depart
ment demanding the convict's return,
which, after some delay was acceded to
at 10 o'clock this morning
Police Captains Schlemmer and Juen
disguised, were in waiting for the Ma
niwa's boat, and nabbed the Jap imme-
diately he was landed on Dillingham; S
coal wharf. A scuffle ensued between
the prisoner and his captors, whom he
recognized, but the fellow was soon
overpowered and brought to the Station
house, to be delivered later to Captain
Trip, warden Of Oahu Jail.
The japanese marines who brought
their countryman ashore sat in their
boat interested spectators, and by their
chattering and gesticulations were evi-
IDENTIFY disappointed that Yosaku had
not an opportunity to run the gauntlet.
The landing Of the fellow at the coal
wharf was an indication that the laps
were not particularly DESTROYS of having
their countryman apprehended,
Yosaku fought the officers all the
way to Jail and was roughly handled
once or twice through self-defense, as
through courtesy no handouts were
taken, and the Jap realized the advan.
tage Of free hands and fought like a
tiger for his liberty

AS to the sanitation of Honolulu, an
effort will be made to strictly enforce
the regulations as to the disposition of
garbage, the management of tenement

of public victualers.
In conversation this afternoon, Mr.
Reynolds, executive officer of the Board,
said that the odorless excavator is con-

STAR a report of its operations for the
last month which shows that 81 loads
of $40 gallons each were taken from the
vaults and cesspools of the city in that
time. owe intend keeping up this

continued, sis with the Orientals who

HONOLULU NATIONAL BANK.
One Of the Good Things That Annexation
Would Give Us.

Would Give Us.
An indication of what movement of
capital this way would follow annexation
is given in the Commercial Gazette of
Cincinnati. We quote from the issue
of April 9TH
"When the annexation of Hawaii was
first proposed, Hon. r. Nj. Nixon,
President of the Fifth National Bank,
was Deputy Comptroller of the Cur
rency at Washington. He is trained
and experienced banker and he saw at
once an opportunity which he did not
fail to grasp on a jump. "
"He filed an application the same
day the Hawaiian proposition was made
public, asking the privilege of organiz-
ing the First National Bank of Homo
lulu"
"As the old-time rule, First come,
first served, holds good for applications
Of that sort, Mr.. Nixon will probably be
at the head of the first American
4NdtlOllal Dam " DC SSldDllSlCu III inc
Sandwich Islands. A big bunch of
applications came tumbling into the
Treasury Department the day after his
application had been placed on file as
No. l. There was considerable chagrin
among the New York and Eastern
bankers when they discovered that a
Hoosier fnancer was ahead of them,
and several including a son of Claus
Spreckels wanted to go in with him,
but Nixon had his company about made
up, and among his associates are ex-U.
S. Treasurer j. N. Huston and Perry
Heath.
Nothing can be done, of course,
until the annexation actually occurs.
Then the Bank will be established, and
it can not but prove a successful ven
ture. Under the present system the
banks in Honolulu are all private
concerns.
GAS President Nixon is now a resident
of Cincinnati this city will have the
honor of establishing the first American
bank on the Sandwich Islands, but Mr..
Nixon will not give up his relations with
the Fifth National after the Honolulu
bank has been organized,

SEES A CHINESE PLAY.
BRONSON HOWARD AT MR.
TYPHooN'S THEATER.
One Of The Spectators Of a Lively
Domestic Comedy - Entertained
by the Management.

Accompanied by members of the
STAR force and escorted by Police
Captain Juen, Bronson Howard, the
great American playwright, visited the
Chinese Theater last night. 1t was
the first time he had ever seen a celes-
tial company or a Chinese play and he
spent over two hours in various parts
of the house closely watching the queer
proceedings

Mr. Howard was visibly pleased with
the smoothness with which the play ran
along. "The acting is very good, in

sparkling comedy came to an end

During the evening the American
playwright went twice behind the
scenes and shook hands with the man.
