HOW WISE AIDED WILDER,
Hawaiian Consul's Scheme to
Have the Henrietta
Watched.
A Revenue Cutter Sent Out After the
Schooner by the Collector of
the Port.

Collector of the Port John Fl. Wise, hav-
ing been informed that a schooner called
the Henrietta had left Victoria, B. c., on
November 8 with a cargo of opium pre-
sumably for La Paz, Mex, and that she
would probably attempt to land several
Chinese On the Shore of this country, re-
Gently sent out the revenue cutter Perry to
watch her movements. So far the Perry
has not returned with any report justify
ing the suspicion.
1t turns out that the Hawaiian Consul in
this City, Hon. Charles T. Wilder, acting
in the interest of his Government, reported
the vessels departure from the British Co.
lumbian port to Collector Wise, because
Mr.. Wilder was of the opinion that she
had double mission-one to land Chinese
in the United States and the other to
smuggle opium into Hawaii. AS the Col
the Chinese he fell nicely into the scheme
and sent the revenue cutter out.
Mr.. Wilder knew that TWENTY-FIVE cases
of opium, between 40, ,000 and 80, 900 pounds
fthe drug, II is sald, though this seems a
fearfully exaggerated estimate to Amer
leans had been consigned to r. P. Rithet
& Co. of Victoria from Honolulu. Opium
is a contra sband under Hawaiian laws.
The drug sent to Victoria was the accumu-
lation of large number OF seizures, great
and small, and as there were only two al
ternatives-either to destroy 1t by burning
or to sell it to dealers in other countries-a
sale was made to the Victoria parties.
Eighteen of the cases were consigned to
r. P. Rlthet & Co. and four TO dealer
named Joslyn. Ultimately Joslyn bought
up the entire lot. 1t was easier for the
Government to dispose of it in Victoria,
because it could be placed in bond there.
An effort was made to sell it here, but
failed because the duty must be paid at
American ports Immediately upon arrival.
The duty here is $6 per pound.
When the Henrietta cleared from Vic
toria assurance was given that the drug
was to be taken TO La Paz. but as there is
practically no market for opium n Mexico
Mr.. Wilder naturally supposed the inten-
tiOn of the vessel was to smuggle the drug
back into Honolulu, where it commands a
ready price Of $40 pound, Just at present,
from the Illicit buyers.
The Henrietta will have to return land
ing certificates to the British Colum bia
Custom-house showing that her cargo was
landed at La Paz. How she will be able
20 get around this remains to be seen.
The opium smuggled into Hawaii usu-
ally comes from Hongkong, though there
has been an attempt to make it appear
that California parties are interested.
This is denied by an attorney who is well
posted, he says, on the movements of
opium-dealers.

MARTINS CHANCE.
The Acknowledgement Unfavorably I'm
pressed With the Ex-Fire Com
missioner's Claims

To Judge from the remarks of Attorney
General Fitzgerald A. J. Martin, the ex-
Fire Commissioner, has but little chance
for regaining the place that was taken
from him by the appointment of Colin NJ.
Boyd.
Several years ago Martin was appointed
Fire Commissioner to fill an unexpired
term. During the term of Governor Mark
ham j. c. DAILY was appointed to succeed
Martin, but the latter refused to give up
his seat, and after considerable controversy
he won his point.
When Governor Budd came into office
he appointed Boyd and Martin was de-
posed The latter conrended tina: the
Governor had no right to take such a
course, and he. through his attorneys,
appealed to the Attorney General for per-
mission to bring suit in the name of the
people of California to oust BOYD that he
(Martin) might be reinstated. Permission
was denied by the eAttorneyGeneral.
Since the Supreme Court has rendered a
decision in the case of M. A. Gunst as
Police Commissioner there has been con-
siderable talk of Martin 1eopening his
case by another application to use the
name of the people in an action to regain
his seat as Fire Commissioner. The claim
is that the GunSt decision applies also to
Martins case.
Attorney General Fitzgerald in discuss
ing the matter said:
Two months ago declined to allow Martin
to begin an action in the name OF the people
to oust Boyd, and l am of the same opinion
now that was then. In the first place, Mar
tin has not filed second application. and if
he does and does not present n different case
from the one presented then l shall again re-
fuse my permission. According to his own
showing then he was not entitled to the posi-
ton which he had uSurped from Mr.. DAILY. If
DAILY had made such an application l should
have granted it. Martin wants to oust Boyd
from seat that he (Martin) had usurped from
Daily. When Martins attorneys file a new
application will give it fair and impartial
consideration, but if it is based on the same
lines as the former l see no reason why L
should change my opinion and grant his
applicatiOn.

Mayor Sutro Excited Over the
Ocean Boulevard Car
Tracks.
TO BE PUT ON THE SIDEWALK.
Property.Owners Declare That They
Will Defend Their Interests
at Any Cost.

Mayor Sutro has discovered another Of
what he calls the "scandalous tricks of
the octopus" and declares that unless the
Southern Pacific Company ceases certain
operations that have been designed for the
Ocean boulevard he, with other property
owners, will of necessity resort to force to
maintain what is Justly due them.
Where the Midwinter Fair was first pro-
iected the railroad company appl led for
franchise for spur track into the park
that it might transport the materials and
exhibits for the buildings. Mayor Sutro
fought strenuously against any such per-
mission being granted, on the grouno that
If the company once gained a foothold in
the park it would be impossible to dis
lodge it and that the spur track would be-
come a permanent institution and not
only disfgure and hamper the peoples
playground. but render the Ocean boule-
yard unfit for the purpose for which it was
intended.
Now the Mayor says that his prediction
has come true and that another fight is on
hand that will be as bitter as any yet
waged.
'sThis is an outrage which we cannot and
will not stand" said the Mayor Yesterday.
ut came to my knowledge this morning
that contract had been let to A. E. Buck
man TO move the railroad tracks on the
Ocean boulevard which We have been fight
ing so long and earnestly to nave taken up.
They have hampered driveway which
should have been matter of pride to the
people of this City, and the Park Commits
sioners, under whose jurisdiction the mat
ter comes, have allowed them to remain
despite all opposition.
Nov the octopus, for some reason that
does not appear on the surface, has decided
simply to move its tracks few feet to one
side. The worst feature of the matter is
that if Contractor Buckman is allowed to
carry out his agreement, the tracks will be
laid exactly where the sidewalk should
come, property-owners will be greatly
damaged and the boulevard more than
ever disfgured.
''It seems to me that the Park Commits
sioners must know what the result of such
contract would be, and that they should
step in and stop the operations before any
damage results. But suppose they SIM
ply did as they were told, and will do
nothing or wait until the railroad accom-
plishes its purpose before making any pre-
tense at protesting.
You can rest assured, however, that
PERFORMERS will not sit idly by and
see their property ruined. By tomorrow
night we will have full information on this
latest outrage of the grasping corporation,
and will resist its designs by force if neces-
sary. l do not think that we will be COM
PEELED, to resort to that, however, for 1
think that proper representation of the
matter to the courts will give us relief.
81 shall have a consultation with my
attorneys tomorrow and whatever course
they advocate shall pursue. 1t is scan
dalous that the people of this Citv will al,
low the octopus TO trample them under
foot. Had they made vigorous protest
against the introduction of these tracks

THE GRANGERS' BANK.

State Commissioners Say That All De-

Bank Commissioners Kilburn and Fuller

into the affairs of the Changers Bank.
AS their work was incomplete they were
unable to make definite statement as to the
condition of the banks finances and sure
ties. After listing the country real estate
securities the Commissioners will send to
the various county assessors and get de-
scriptions, so as to ascertain the values of
the properties on which loans have been
made. The overdrafts, receipted bills and
liabilities were also looked into.
When the Commissioners closed their

labors for the day they stated that so far
as they had gone they had found that the
bank held two or three times more prop
erty than would be necessary to pay off all
the claims of the depositors.
Colonel Fuller said: II would Jump at
an opportunity to pay twice the amount Of
money due to the depositors if could get
the bank assets. The only trouble is that
the bank has not been able to raise enough

After paying the depositors the bank will
