January 22d, 1S94S
Hon. WIN. q. IRWIN, Honolulu, ii. L.
DEAR SIR:-In reply to yours OF IL G
10th inst. regarding the National Cane
Shredder furnished by the Universal
Mill Co. of New York, and erected by
the Hilo Sugar Co. this past season,
Iwould beg to say, that it has now been
in operation day and night during the past
three weeks working on plant cane, and
also lard ratoons, and it is giving me the
greatest satisfaction. The more l see of
its capabilities, the better pleased l am
that put it in, as | am satisfied that il
will repay the original outlay in a short
time, in saving of labor, higher extrac-
ton, etc.
1t is shredding from $50 to 400 tons of
cane every % hours with the greatest
ease, and it could shred a much larger
quantity if necessary. 1t delivers the
shredded cane in an even uniform feed
to the three roller mill, which receives it
without the intervention of any labor,
and as the cane is thoroughly shredded
or disintegrate,d it relieves the mill of a
great deal of strain, thus reducing the
liability of broken shafts, gearing, etc.
There is saving of four az men daily
on the mill, as only one man Is required
to regulate the amount of cane delivered
by the carrier to the shredder. It has
increased the extraction from a to
5 per cent.
The economical use of steam is gene
rally serious consideration in adding
new machinery, as in most mills the
boiler power is taxed to its highest limit,
as it was in this mill, and any increased
demand necessitated an additional boil
er. But l find that the shredder and the
three roll mill engines combined use no
more steam than the three roll mill
engine did when working on whole cane,
while doing better work and more of it,
and owing to the uniform feed on the
mill, the engine demands very little
attention.
The Megass from the shredded cane
makes superior fuel, and the firemen
have less difficulty in maintaining a uni.
form pressure of steam than formerly.
| will be pleased to have call from
parties interested, as it is necessary to
see the machine at work to fully appre-
ciate its capabilities.
remain, very truly yours,
(Sig.) JOHN A. SCOTT,
Manager Hilo Sugar Co

averse to indulging in extended COM

MYSTERY OF A DEATH.
The Causes of the Suicide of Young Rey'

New York Nov. 13.--George Fl. Reyn-
olds, the father of the young man, Mel
son Reynolds, who committed suicide
In this city yesterday, made a state
ment to the coroner this morning. He
said that for the last couple of years
Nelson had acted in a moody way, and
did not seem to think life was worth
living. On Monday morning the fam
lily received a letter in which he said
that when 1t reached them he would
be no longer among the living. Mr..
Reynolds thinks that the only plausible
theory for his sons death was melan-
cholia.
He knew but little about the two
young women, Katherine and Mary
White, who called at the house before
and after the death Of the young man.
About two weeks ago one of the girls,
accompanied by young Reynolds, ap-
piled at 4 house for Il room without
board. They were shown room and
then they went away, promising to re-
turn with the girls sister. A few hours
iot'i lilc lNO girls accompanied DN
Reynolds, went to the house and en-

a frequent visitor after that. His last

The burglar drew a formidable buck

ten inches in length, with which he
made lunge at the clergyman. The
blade penetrated the fleshy part of Mr..
Seckerson's left forearm inflicting an
ugly wound from which the blood
flowed freely.
Both men then grappled, and a hand

Denver, Colo, Nov. 10.
Strangers Row" was the scene of
another murder early this morning.
About 1.1j o'clock, 1875 Market street
was visited by the fiend whose strange
hobby is to choke women to death, and
when he left the place Kiku Oyama, Il
Japanese girl, was a corpse. with the
marks of the stranglers work upon her
throat. This mornings murder was
committed in the row of houses in
which Lena Taper and Marie Contas-
soft We're strangled. The mode of the
Japanese girls death, too, was exactly
similar
After partially choking her. the mur-
derer completed his work by tying a
towel around her neck and tightening
the moose until life left her body. Kiku
Oyama was "a years of age and emil
grated from Japan to Chicago with the
representatives of her native land to
the Columbian exposition. There she
made the acquaintance of Imi Oyama
and together they came to Denver last
November Imi Oyama says he was
the dead woman's cook, but the neigh
bors say he lived with her as her hus-
band. He was the first person to enter
the girls room after her death.
Had Been Desperate Struggle.
In the room where the murdered
woman was found there was every in
dication that a desperate struggle had
taken place. The bed clothes were dis
turbed and the white spread was cov-
cred with blood in spots. A Turkish
bath towel had been used to choke the
woman, and there was another towel
lying upon a dressing table. The first
towel was twisted into a rope and there
is every evidence that the victim was
thrown back upon the bed after the
towel had been placed about her neck,
and then deliberately garroted.
No money was found in the room, and,
1t is believed, the woman was robbed.
Imi Ayama and several other Japanese
have been arrested ON suspicion. The
excitement among the women inhabit-
ing the part of the city where the mur-
ders by strangulation have occurred is
intense,
