of saki which soured on the way

condemned by the Custom House
authorities, who are now at a loss
what to do with it. Commissioner
Marsden yesterday offered to
empty the lot into a sewer II the
authorities would give him the
empty tubs for use il the Govern
ment nursery. These tubs make
excellent receptacles for young
trees, and 1t is very likely the offer
of Mr.. Marsden will be accepted.

COURT NOTES.

Judge Cooper opened the Circuit
Court yesterday morning promptly
at 10 o'clock.
The first case called was that of
the Republic of Hawaii vs. Bush
and Nawahi. Upon the representa-
ton of w. R. Castle, who had been
spoken to by the defendants in re-
gard to acting as their counsel, and
upon his statement that he had not
had time to consult with them on
the matter, the Court extended the
time of pleading until 1:3o p. m.
today.
Louis Christ, alias Louis Quet-
avao, pleaded guilty to forgery in
thesecond degree and was sentenced
to thirty days on the reef and to
pay a fine of SO. Mr.. Christ has
wife and eight children dependent
upon his exertions, and when the
tax collector called on him he very
adroitly presented him a paid up
tax receipt in full. The collector
found that Mr.. Christ had changed
the 1892 receipt into one that read
1893, and hence the arrest. Judge
Cooper took the circumstances of
his poverty and large family into
consideration and imposed the
lightest sentence possible.
The three Japanese, Harada,
Matsukami and Ito, charged with
placing distractions on the railroad
track at Waianae, pleaded not
guilty, and their cases were con-
tinued for the term.
The cases of Tuck Chez, Morton
and Favec, LIE Quai Tong, edmund
J. Norrie, All Pack and All Wo
were all continued for the term.
In the case of the Republic of
Hawaii vs. O'Brien, assault and
battery, continuation was granted
until l 80 p. 10. today.
All Ia pleaded guilty to having
opium in possession and was
promptly fined $50 and $3.50
costs.
J. Hapa, indicted for highway
robbery and granted a new trial by
a recent decision of the Supreme
Court, was admitted to bail in the
sum of $500. Mr.. Hapa's alleged
robbery consisted of relieving a
lonely Chinaman of seventy-ive
cents.

representation, I am very glad to state
to you that this Government has no
policy in regard to any class or ma
tionality of persons residing here,
which can be expressed by the words
T" root out" It is quite true that this
Government desires to encourage Eu-
ropean immigration but this does not
involve the idea of "rooting out" or
Discrimination against any part OF our
population. I sh0uld regret extremely
to hear that it could be considered
imaginable that the encouragement of
European immigration reflect on the
uniform spirit of good will and of cor
diality which has marked the inter-
course between Japan and this
country.

renew the assurances OF high consid-
Grafton and esteem with which I have
the honor, etc.

The cases OF CT. Gulick, w. 81. Rick
ard, T. B. Walker and w. T. Seward
occupied the attention Of the Military
Commission all day yesterday. The
court op ened ct 8 O'Clock sharp.
Shortly after convening, the Commits
sion retired for q few nome nts, and
on returning announced readiness to
proceed with any new business.
The four prisoners had engaged Paul
Neumann to act in their behalf and
formal appearance was made. Mr..
Neumann announced that he would
offer the same objections to the juris-
diction of the court made in the pre-.
vious cases. The objection was put in
writing and filed. The order for the
calling of the court was again read.
No objection being offered to the per-
sonnel, the Commission was sworn
and the charge and specifications read
as follows:
Charge First Treason, by engag-
ing in open rebellion against the Gov
ernment of the Republic of Hawaii by
attempting by force and arms TO over
throw and destroy the same, and by

public of Hawaii, giving them aid and

B. Walker, upon the Island of Oahu,
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1895-01-22

one of the Hawaiian Islands at divers
times within six months now last past,
did commit treason by procuring and
providing munitions of war, arms and
forces to be used and which were used
in levying war against the Republic
of Hawaii, and in attempting to over
throw and destroy the same.
Third Specification: That the said
Charles T. Gulick, William III. Rick
ard, William T. Seward and Thomas
B. Walker, upon the island of Oahu,
one of the Hawaiian Islands, at di-
vers times within six months now last

AUCKLAND, Jan. 2.-Advices re-
ceived here from Samoa, December
27, say there has been much disorder
at Apia. District collection of taxes
has not been attempted for the past
year. One native has been sentenced
to death aud others have been i'm
prisoned for killing three black men.
The natives were preparing to eat
the bodies OF their victims when
arrested.

It will be remembered that some
months ago a purported interview
with Minister Thurston was pub
lished in the States, which put in
Mr.. Thurston's mouth expressions
derogatory to the interests of jap
anese in Hawaii. This resulted in
a complaint from Japan's represent
ative, Mr.. Fujii. The affair reached
Minister Thurston's knowledge
while in Lisbon, and his prompt
reply was received by the last mail
from the Coast. The correspond
ence given in full below will be read
with general interest:
TY'S CONSULATE GENERAL.
HONOLULU, II. l., Oct. q, 1894.
SIR: Ibeg respectfully to call your
attention to what purports to be an
interview with Mr.. i. A. Thurston,
the diplomatic representative of the
Republic of Hawaii in the United
States, as of the 18th inst, in Wash
ington, and published in both the Pa
CIFIC COMMERCIAL ADVERTISER and
Hawaiian Star in their issues of the
26th inst, in which Mr.. Thurston is
made to say: "It is the desire of the
Republic of Hawaii to offset as much
as possible Asiatic influence in our
islands caused by the presence of Chi
nese and Japanese, by encouraging
European Immigration" and further
-. I'll se,e
picking one to our people, and we are
willing to resort to almost any meas
ure to root out the Chinese and jap
anese now on the islands"
The prominence given to Mr.. Thurs
ton by your Government may impart
to the language used by him signifi-
canoe which would dotherwisenot have
been credited to his talk.
Permit me to ask If in those state
ments, especially in the last, are re.
fiected the policy Of the Government
of the Republic OF Hawaii and the
sentiments of those who are at the
head of its affairs? You will doubtless
concede that the term ''to root out the
Japanese" carries enough with it on
the one hand, to make it offensive,
and, on the other, to commend the
new policy of your Government to the
serious consideration of that of His
Imperial Majesty of Japan.
1t must be known to you that the
subjects of His Imperial Majesty did
not seek these islands or acquire a
residence therein unlimited. That
fact alone exposes such assertion made
by person who is at present the rep
resentative of your Government, as
Minister at Washington, and who oc-
cupies otherwise a position of promi-
nence in your Government, to just
criticism, and justifies me in my in
quiry of you whether Mr.. Thurston
speaks for the Republic Of Hawaii,
when he announces that 1--WE will re-
sort to almost any measure to root
out the Japanese.
/ avail myself of this occasion to re-
new to you the assurance of my bigh-
est consideration.

II. L. J. M.?s Diplomatic Agent and
Consul General.

Foreign Affairs, Honolulu.
