during the past few days.
At I o'clock the four prisoners
were taken below and the hunt for
Wilcox resumed.
The authorities expect to capture
Wilcox i'll Pauoa b. tonight.
FUSILADE IN TOWN.
Half dozen shots were fired at
the barracks this morning. A tall
negro, known as Sam, was halted at
the King street gate. When the
sentry turned to call the corporal of
the guard, Sam took to his heels
and disappeared around the gospel
tent corner of Alakea street with
bullets whizzing after him. The
alarm was sounded below and at
the officers quarters. All hands
were at their posts in less than half
a minute. A shot was fired in the
basement in lieu of drum ruffling.
The boys tumbled out in a great
rush.
Discipline is right up to the han
die at the Executive Building, and
it is wise to halt and be recognized
when the challenges given. Among
those stopped during the night were
Marshal Hitchcock, Capt. Larsen
and squad Of the mounted police.
A detail was sent to look for the
negro, and he was found in hiding
OIL the water front The boys
brought him in, and he is now in
stalled at quarters as bootblack and
assistant janitor. Sam said he
thought he was going to be shot
down, and thought he had best
make a ruin for it.
A QUIET RoARER.
Bipikane (Roaring Bully, one of
the rebel leaders, was captured late
Saturday night. He was taken in
Min through the efforts of friendly
natives. Bipikane was thoroughly
frightened and was tame indeed
when he reached the Station house.
Under questioning the fellow
talked very freely, offering all the
information he possessed. His trail
of Wilcox was quite old. 1t was
followed, but without result. Bipi-
kane had witnessed the battle of
Moiliili from a safe distance. He
says the Smelling Of Diamond Head
spread CONSERVATION i'll the ranks
of the insurgents.
Bipikane has been an agitator
for long time. Though an idle
fellow of little learning, he has had
quite a following.
COLONIES FIRST SCALP.
Colonel Fisher, courier Ables
and non-c com staff officer
preceded Ziegler's command back
to the head Of Manoa yesterday
morning. The trio did some recon-
noitering on their own account.

a piece of his undershirt and came
up smiling. He had two belts of
cartridges and one of the little
Winchester rifles.

Hanapau Ozone Work J. He was
nearly fanished and was given
food before he was interviewed.

had been in hiding since the Ma

of the war.
GEN. NOWLEIN.
One of the prisoners Of war says
that Nowiein commanded the forces
at Moiliili. He remained we'll to
the rear and passed orders along the
line. Nowlein wanted to capture
Tim Murray and his gang OF
twenty-five to get their heavy rifles.
Even after the artillery was on the
field and in use he hoped to win
the day. He wanted the piece tc
use from the top of Punchbowl.
1t was then that rioting i'll town
would have been inaugurated.
Nowlein urged his men to storm the
line of the Republics force. They
did several times attempt to advance

gers after Wilcox during the en-
gagement, but Robert did not come
to the relief.
