REBELS WILL HAVE TO ANSWER
Court Martial to Try the Prisoners
Opens Today.
Full Account of the Proceedings and
Findings VIII be Published.
Personnel OF the Commission.

Elsewhere in this hnorning's edition
will be found an official notice consti-
tuting military commission, before
whom all those connected with the
late rebellion will be brought for
trial.
The commission, or court-martial,
will be opened this morning at 10
o'clock in the Council Chamber of the
Executive Building, and viii be pre-
sided over by Judge w. A. Whiting,
with the rank of Colonel, First Regi-
ment, n. G.. II.
The board will consist of seven
members, made up as follows:
Lieutenant-Co Colonel J. 81. Fisher.
Captain c. w. Ziegler, Company F.
Captain ]. NJ. Camara, Jr., Conn
pany C..
Captain J. w. Pratt, Adjutant.
Captain w. G.. Wilder, Jr., Com
pany d.
First Lieutenant J. w. Jones. Com
pany D.
The above are all officers of First
Regiment n. G. III.
Captain William A. Kinney, aide
de-camp on General Staff, who will
act in the capacity of Judge Advocate.
The session will continue from day
to day, or until the charges and speci-
fications to be presented by the Judge
Advocate have been disposed OF.
1t has been decided to employ no
star chamber methods and the press
will be allowed to publish full pro-
ceedings and findings Of the Court,
but no comments or expressions of
opinion upon the merits or dement's
of tho trials are expected to be made.
The diplomatic corps will undoubtedly
attend and protect the rights of their
respective subjects to fair, just and
equitable trial, but the public gener
ally will have to be contented with
following the cases through the medi-
um of the press.
1t is presumed the prisoners will be
allowed counsel, but according to rules
and usages governing such tribunals
that point will be decided by the COM
mission.
It is expected the session will be q
lengthy one, as there will be num-
Der of prisoners to examine, and it is
q matter of considerable speculation
as to who will be the first parsonage
brought before the board.

kr Bombs
The shell of cocoanut was utilized
for one bomb; there were three metal
ones, and sixteen were made OF
cement. With the exception of the
first they were all about the size of an
ordinary baseball. Each had a fuse
inserted. They are all wicked look
ing projectiles. One was sent last
night to Professor Lyons to examine
the contents and report.
This important capture was made
by Captain Parker and Deputy Marshal
Brown last night about $3.50 o'clock.
The information was given by Charles
Clark, q man now Under arrest for
conspiracy.
He has been 9 hanger.on around
Washington Place for some time.
His wife is now the companion of the
ex-Queen.
The mission was q dangerous one on
account of the large humber of natives
that usually pass their time ut the ex-
queens plsce. Ample precautions
were taken by the authorities to pro-
tect the policemen who were sent 10
make the search. RiAemeu were sta
toned about the grounds surrounding
the place, and . company of regulars
were held in readiness to leave thesEx-
ecutive Building at . moments notice.
Nothing happened, however, owing
no doubt, to Parker's diplomatic treat
ment of the forty odd natives who
were on the grounds when the wagon
with the police aboard arrived.
He gave them to understand that he
would restore Liliuokalani to them
today. This little fable seemed to
please them. At any rate they did
net interfere with the search.
Parker and his men then went un-
derneath the house and with the aid
of a lantern unearthed the arsenal.
Gun after gun was handed out and
placed in the wagon. Then the pistols,
swords and cartridges were taken from
their hiding place. The last and big
gest surprise was the discovery of the
bombs. They were placed in bag
and taken in charge by Parker.
After the cellar was cleared out the
the men jumped in the wagon and
rode triumphantly to the police sta
tion. The load was transferred TO the

An Unsuccessful Search.

D. P. Lawrence and some men
went out to the beach yesterday in
search of rifles that were hidden
by the rebels. Charles Barlow, a
prisoner, accompanied the party.
The arms were left in a cave near
Waialae. They were not there
yesterday and Barlow is of the
opinion that Wilcox secured them.
Barlow said that the Waimanalo
unloaded ON the Thursday night
previous to the rebellion at a spot
near Waialae, known as Kahala.
The rebels placed the arms and
ammunition in a cave for safe
keeping.

The first four were declared elected.
Professor p. J. Frein did not receive q
vote.
President Dole asked that the newly
elected me mbers be sent for and take
part in the deliberations of the Coun-
ellis.
After a few minutes delay, Jas. A.
Kennedy, one of the new members,
who was on duty about the Executive
Building, was escorted to the Council
chamber by Major George Mcleod.
He was in uniform. Messrs. G. Z.
Castle aud DR.. Wood came in later.
Judge Henry Z. Cooper administered
the oath to the newly elected members
and the Councils proceeded to bust-
ness.
Minister Damon introduced an Act
to appropriate S50,Ot0 to defray the
general expenses OF suppressing the
rebellion of 1898. Under suspension OF
the rules, the Act Was read three
times and passed.
President Dole introduced an Act to
amend Act 46 of the laws of the Pro-
visional government, relating to the
National Guard IF Hawaii. Under
the amendment, which w"s read q
third time and passed, the Com manoer-
in-Chief is empowered to fill vacancies
in the acting militia during times OF
rebellion. It was also advisable to
admit a person Of legal ability and
one occupying an official judicial posi-.
tion to the body of the court martial
who was to try those connected Win
the rebellion. Judge Whiting had been
decided on, and as he was member
of the National Guard, besides EN-
bojying the other requirements neces'
