reached town.
A prominent agitator, brought In
by David, the district court bailiff
was Henry West, bosom FRIEND
of Nawahi's. West tried to satisfy
himself with his predicament b,
cursing native policemen. Wher
Charles Baker, carpenter with /;
trace of native blood in him arrived
at the station he demanded an in
terview with Captain Parker. Thi.
was refused.
Schnack, the collector was fool
ing around the station this morning
trying to garnishee somebody's
wages. He made such nuisance
of himself that Marshal Hitchcock
ordered him below where he wa.
kept for about half an hour.
Schnack entered a protest against
being searched and his gold was
taken from him.
George Townsend, who is g
brother. ip-law to Charles b. Will
son talked somewhat freely at the
prison this morning. He said that
the cause of the failure of the in
surrection was the general use in
their camp of Okolehao which was
brought by the natives who came
from Cocoa Head. Townsend said
iii very matter-of-fact way that i
the natives had not foolishly made
themselves drunk they would have
won the day.
Harry Juen, formerly a police
captain, and George Lycurgus were
the two white men in the party o.
a dozen prisoners taken TO the reet
this morning. They were very
angry over what they called the
humiliation of being " punched
with kanakas," Juen was specially
mad and Lycurgus became so ex-
cited that he could scarcely speak
In the arrest this morning o.
Jose Durrell, what is considered a
very important capture, is effected.
This prisoner is a Portuguese.
There is evidence that he offer
ed for the sum of $4,000. 90
to take five hundred members Of
the colony into Wilcox's command.
1t is known that Durrell attempted
some work of this sort in Punch
bowl town. He found, however,
that the Portuguese were loyal to a
man. Durrell took his arrest very
cool.
Captain Davis and the mate Of
the Waimanalo were brought be-
fore the Marshal again this morn
ing and questioned further. They
gave some more information that
cannot be made public at this time.
1t may be said that the author
tiles are on the trail of the people
who furnished funds for the revolu-
ton. There are likely to be some
revelations under this head within
a couple of days. Davis says again
that he was engaged by w. H.
Richard, and that an attempt was
made to land the arms at Kakaako
on last Thursday night The guns
were to be given out at the Immigra-
ton depot meeting opened up byLar-
sen. "A regular mob movement was to
be made upon the town from that
place. Soon after the police de-
cended ON the gathering, Wilcox
came out to the Waifnaha1o which
was near the bell buoy. and direct
ed Davis to 60 around Diamond
Head with his freight. Davis says
that there were three hundred
guns, and that they were not in
boxes but were loose. One of the
most intelligent natives captured
at Moiliili says that there were ex-
actly two hunered and eighty-eight
guns. The authorities believe
that there were not less than five
hundred of the little repeaters.
There are now at military head
quarters and the Police Station, a
few more than one hundred of these
rifles. Twenty guns found by Cap
tain Smith in the fort near Waialae
had never been fired. About halt
dozen of the rifles were disabled.
Three of them had been struck by
bullets. Captain Gartenberg and
armorer Wetherbee ISSUED all
the captured rifles Tuesday night
to Volunteers who had joined
the Citizens Guard during the day.
The Government has quite mum
Der more men than guns at the
present time. The force of the Re-
public in Honolulu could whip all
the rest of Hawaii and a pretty
heavy contingent from any other
country.
On the order of Marshal Hitch
cock, Chester Doyle last night Wis
tied Henry Bertelmann's place.
There were no signs of trouble out
there. One of the women in the
house said that straggler had told
her that the Smelling at Diamond
Head had killed eight natives. The
bodies are supposed to be hidden in
caves and underbrush. Men in
the commands of Zeigler and Coyne
found a number of bloody rags on
Punchbowl.
This leads to the subject of sur
geons. Captain Cooper and Stew
ard Hough have been on duty day
and night since the rebellion began.
