The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1895-02-28

At 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon,
Major Potter, Major Mcleod, Chas.
B. Wilson and Mrs. Wilson
visited the apartment now occupied
by Mrs. Liliuokalani Dominis in
the Executive Building for the pur-
pose of reading to her the sentence
pronounced by the Military Com
mission and approved by President
Dole, as the result of her being
found guilty of misprision oftreason.
The ex-royal lady remained seated
during the reading of the sentence
and manifested comparatively
little concern over it.
For the present Mrs. Dominis
will be treated as a State prisoner
and will be confined in her present
quarters. She was not sentenced
to hard labor like other prisoners,
the President having remitted that
portion of the judgment. Regula-
tions regarding the future of Mrs.
Dominis will be formulated by the
authorities hereafter.
Proceeding to the Oahu Jail the
officers had John A. Cummins and
Capt. Davies brought before them
and read the sentences imposed.
The sentence passed by the Com
mission on Mr.. Cummins was five
years imprisonment at hard labor
and 5000 fine, but the President
saw fit to remit the imprisonment
portion; hence the payment OF
$4,000 will procure Mr.. Cummins
his liberty.
Captain Davies sentence was
ten years at bard labor and fine
of $4,000, but in consideration of
his turning States evidence both
are remitted on condition that he
leaves the country as early as pos
sible.

AFTERNOON SESSION.

Court opened at 2:3O o'clock with
the case of a. NJ. Hewett, charged
with misprisiOn Of treason. Attorney
Neumann appeared for the defendant
and made the usual objection to the
Jurisdiction Of the court, which was
overruled. Another objection in re-
gard to the failure of the specification
to state the time that the defendant
became aware OF the intended out
break, met the same fate.
Charles Peterson, the genial keeper
of the signal station, was the first wit
ness on the side of the prosecution.

Charlie Peterson and HIs Daughter
Tell Their story-Asked to Keep
Quiet About the WAlmAnAlO-JIm
Aylett IIeads GuiIty-Near the End.

The Military Commission turned
out a big grist of business yesterday
morning. Three cases were disposed
of, which covered twenty-five natives.
Jim Aylett was first brought up,
charged with misprision of treason.
He pleaded guilty and asked for the
leniency Of the Court. The Judge
Advocate stated that he did not ask
for the extreme penalty. Aylett
knew of the landing of the arms, and
acted as a messenger for Sam Now
lein the latter part OF December.
The Court was cleared, and after a
short recess George Townsend, Charles
Barlow, Sam Pua Milo, Bill Thu,
Robert Hakuole Sylvia, Kahimalani,
Joseph AHA, Keoni PaaOao, Solomon
Kupihea, Kawika, Kalua, Sam Kia,
Sam Kauahele, Kawelo, Kauli, Naa-
ieono, Lunahopu, KIM, Kaohiwaunu,
Sam Keanu, William Olepau and Nj
olo were brought in, charged with
treason. All these men had been
used as Government witnesses, and
all pleaded guilty. The Court again
retired to make up the findings and
the prisoners were returned to the
barracks. After a half hour recess,
Charles II. Clark, William Kaae,
John K. Kaimi and John Kahoeka
were brought in on the same
charge as the other witnesses. Ka-
hoaka asked for a lawyer, but before
Ns Kaulukou, his counsel, arrived,
he decided to plead guilty as did the
others. Mr.. KaulukOu arrived after
the plea had been entered, but said he
would like to address theCOurt. He said
he had been retained as the prisoners
counsel and had advised him to plead
guilty. The man had been used as q
witness by the Government and in
that capacity had rendered much
valuable assistance. These facts should
be taken into consideration and len
iency shown by the Commission.
What the prisoner had already under
gone was sufficient punishment to
make further attempts in the same
line out of the question. The accused
also had large family dependent on
him, all of which Mr.. KaulukOu
Thought should cause the Commission
to give Kahoeka his liberty.
The Judge Advocate said he did not
ask for more than the minimum pun
ishment and so far as the prisoners
release was concerned that was in the
hands of the Executive.
1t being near the noon hour q recess
| was declared to . o'clock when the
case of a. NJ. Bewett was to be called.

The trustees of the B. P. Bishop
Museum, and most certainly It's gen
erous lounder, are desirous to make
the institution of as much public
benefit as possible. They are very
glad to endorse the proposal of the
curator, Prof. W. T. Brigham, to
offer the Museum for the exhibition,
which be outlines in the accompany
ing notice. It is to be hoped that
many of the young people especialIy,
who have made collections OF Ha-
waiian land shells, will avail them
selves of this opportunity to make
public the results of their researches
and labOrs. Some Of these collectors
have had the honor of having their
names attached to new species, which
they have discovered. The curator
will be glad to give any information
to those who wish to take part In the
exhibition.

In the month of May, by permits
sion of the trustees, the curator Of
the Bishop Museum will open an
exhibition of private collections of
Hawaiian land shells In the new
hall of the museum. Prizes will be
given for the best arranged and
most complete collections.
There are many young persons
who have made very creditable col
lections, and it is hoped that more
thorough enjoyment of this interest
ing pursuit may come from a care
ful and accurate arrangement of the
spoils of many a mountain excur-
sion. By comparison of collections
each one may be stimulated to en-
large his own. Any resident of
these islands may exhibit, and the
shells may be arranged after the
owners individual taste, but spec
linens must be named and localities
given. The exhibition will remain
open on Friday and Saturday for
three weeks, beginning May 10th.
A committee of three will award
the prizes, and the points they will
consider will be, accuracy of NAM
ing, number of species or varieties,
condition of specimens and neat
ness of arrangement. Collections
will be exhibited in the table cases,
and will be we'll cared for. Any
additional information may be had
of the curator at the museum where
all facilities will be given intending
exhibitors for naming specimens.
Notice should at once be given the
curator by those who wish TO ex-
hibit that sufficient space may be
assigned. Should this experiment
prove successful, it may be followed
another season by exhibitions of
native ferns, grasses, sea ehells, etc.
It has been the intention of the
Curator to exhibit in the general
collections Of the museum the in
dustrial and commercial products
of these islands-sugar, coffee, tea,
rice, fbres, etc. But for this he
needs the cooperation of the plant
ers. Every visitor of intelligence
who comes to Honolulu comes also
to the Bishop Museum, and in the
absence of any other Bureau of
Information," this seems to be the
place to exhibit island products of
all commercial grades. The Trus-
tees have provided the necessary
facilities, and now will the planters
send samples? About a pound will
be a suitable amount for the glass
jars, and exact labels should be
sent with them. They may be left
at Bishops Bank or at the store of
z. o. Hall &, Son.

It is suggested that there Is danger OF
pushing the Monroe doctrine to make
II cover gathering in defenseless COM
munlties within reach. Hawaii is cited
as an example, and In time It Is feared
that Cuba may be brought within the
same scope.
Hawaii wants to come in with us, on
almost any terms, Every minute of the
day she knocks ut our doors asking to
be let In. This Is the way she long has
sought, and mourned because she found
II not. In the case OF Hawaii the Mon
roe doctrine applies TO this extent only,
that while we have not accepted that
little country ourselves. we decline with
the mental reservation that no other
country shall take 1t, Hawaii being ma
turally part of the American conu-
mental system,
Is anybody contemplating reaching
out to take In Cuba against the desire
OF the Cubans? When that valuable
island wins Its independence 1t may or
may not wish to come in with us, We
may or may not wish to let It In. That
question can be decided when 1t pre-
SCENTS itself. sympathy with the patrI-
OTIS is not necessarily the manifestation
of a desire to take their land by con-
quest
Between the assertion Of the Monroe
doctrine and for purposes of national
defense and Its employment for pur-
poses OF conquest, is u far cry. The
present administration will have to
come to n much livelIer appreciation Of
the Monroe doctrine and Its riGrttul APP
plIcation before the world will believe
that there Is any real life In the thing
The present condition off the Monroe
doctrine Is one OF painful "inoSuous
desuCtudc."

According to this plan each state

Of Christians goes on. There are times
when lead is much more potent than the

room to doubt that the mAssacres take

OF the sultan. There il even reason to
