LOOKS LIKE SUICIDE.
Richard Gerke, Formerly OF
Honolulu, Found Dead
in Bed.

The body of Richard Gerke was
taken to the morgue from 1859
Mission street, yesterday, where he
had been rooming.
Gerke owed his landlady $50 for
rent, and as she had to pay her own
bills she had been pushing him for
the money. He promised to pay
her yesterday morning, and when
she knocked on the door of his
room she got no answer. She
looked over the transom and saw
him lying dead in bed. She heard
him moving about in his room on
Monday night, but had not heard
him nor seen him since till she saw
his dead body yesterday morning.
The coroner was notified, and
the deputy on visiting the room
found a bottle of morphine about
one-third full, and it is supposed
Gerke had committed suicide by
swallowing a quantity of the drug.
Among his effects were found a
passport from Honolulu, dated
June 20, 1891, and emitting r.
Gerke to leave on the bark lrm-
gard. There was also a card bear
ing the name "H. E. r. Gerke,
Honolulu"
Gerke had been living at 1863
Mission street for several months,
and had been drinking hard OF
late. He came here from Homo
lulu, and had until recently
received regular remittances
from friends in that city. 1t is
supposed that, being destitute, he
committed suicide.
w. f. Foster, who was formerly
IA partnership with Gerke in the
fruit business in Honolulu, called
at the morgue yesterday afternoon
to see the body, and said there was
no doubt it was case of suicide
Gerke had an attack of the grip
some time ago and never entirely
recovered from it. He had been
also financially embarrassed lately
The deceased was a German, about
40 years of age, and, as far as Eos
ter knew, had no relatives in this
coantry.-IS. f. Cali, May 4.

Circuit Court.

Judge Whiting yesterday rem
dered a decision on the motion for
payment of special fund in court
to an heir of the estate of keoni
Kuhiau. Under the present situa-
ton of the estate and the parties a
final disposition of the fund is re-
fused, but it is directed that the
amount of a note and interest be
advanced, to be paid out of the
fund, reserving final decision until
the estate is ready for final distri-
button.
Attorney Ashford's plea against
the jurisdiction of Judge Cooper to
sign the indictment Of August
Herring for murder was overruled
by Judge Whiting.
Judge Cooper sentenced All Look

lottery.
Richard Stone, for perverting
justice by resisting policeman,
was fined 5000 and sentenced to
six months Imprisonment.

BIG SHIPS.

The appearance in our harbor Of
such a ship as the Oceanic is>
worthy of note as the opening
of a new era in the mercantile
history of Honolulu, and de-
serves special mention in the
columns of paper which is
read in every great seaport en-
gagged in Pacific trade. AS there
are now several of these White
Star" ships frequently calling at
Honolulu, it may be worth while
to give a little sketch of the rise
and progress of this now celebrated
line.
The opening of the Suez canal
occasioned almost revolution in
ocean trade, and Messrs. Harland
& Wolff, shipbuilders and en-
gineeers, of Belfast, were among the
most enterprising and able, and
earliest in the field to take advan-
tape of the new conditions. Hither-
to thew had been building mostly
for the Mediterranean trade, but
now a Liverpool firm gave them an
order for three steamers OF 39O feet
keel, which went to sea In 1868,
and were soon followed by three
more, each 10 feet longer, making
twenty steamers they had built for
this one firm-Messrs. James Blbby
& Co. These ships ran between
Liverpool and Boston with freight
and emigrants.
In 1869 Mr.. Ismay with other
shipowners of Liverpool formed the
now famous Oceanic Steam Navl-
CATION Company" and eommls-
stoned Harland & Wolff to build
six large transatlantic steamers
capable of carrying a heavy cargo
of goods as well as full compile
ment of cabin and steerage passen-
GERS. between Liverpool and New
York, at \ speed equal, if not SUI
perior, to that of the Cunard and
Innan lines" These ships were
400 feet keel, II feet beam, with 81
feet hold.
Of this line the Oceanic was the
pioneer and the type, and in them
many striking improvements were
for the first time introduced.
One great novelty consisted
in placing the first-class ac-
commodation amidships, the sa-
loon extending the full width of the
