EHLERS' NEW STORE.
Will Open in WaverIey Block
With Entire New Stock.

On Saturday next the largest retail
store in Honolulu viii be opened by B. F.
Ehlers & Co., in the Waverley block,
Bethel street. The store has just been
fitted up for the use of the firm and
presents a beautiful appearance.
There are three entrances and mann
moth plate glass windows on Bethel
street, and these, with additional doors
and windows on the court side of the
building give ample light for the careful
examination or matching of goods and
colors. The space at the mauka end con-
tanning broad counters and forty sep
arate shelves will be used entirely as a
department for silk and wooden goods.
Opposite this is a corresponding space
for valuable laces and rich trimmings
for dresses. Opposite the center en-
trance and occupying the counters on
either side of the passage will be the
notion department, while on the makai
end of the room the counters and shelv-
ing is allotted to gloves and cotton goods.
The store is lighted by electricity and
has been fitted throughout with light
natural wood, and presents particularly
cheerful appearance. The fact of the
place being so well lighted will prevent
annoyance and mistakes in the selection
of goods. The stock is entirely new and
has been imported direct from the United
States and Europe by the firm.
The convenience of the locality, the ele-
gance and completeness of the stock, cou-
pied with the fact that the store is the
largest and best arranged dry goods store
in the Islands, is a sufficient guarantee
that on Saturday, November z, the force
of clerks at Ehlers' will have all it can
attend to. The millinery department will
continue on the second floor as usual.

Q. s. Supreme Court Decides
Today
The Famous Long and Short
Haul Controversy.
RAILROADS MUST NOT
Charge More for a Sh0rt Dis
tance Haul
Than They Do for a Longer Dis
tance.

Washington, March 30.-An opinion
was rendered by the supreme court to-
day in the case known as the long and
short haul case, involving the validity
of the provision of the interstate COM
merce act prohibiting a higher charge
for a short than for a long haul, ap-
pealed from the decision of the circuit
court of appeals for the fifth circuit.
The appeal was taken by the rail-
roads. Its title was the Interstate
Commerce Commission VS.. the Cincin-
natl, New Orleans & Texas Pacific Rail
road company, the Western & Atlantic
and the Georgia Railway company.
and the Georgia Railway company.
The decision of the court below was
affirmed in the main, the opinion hold
ing that in cases of shipments from
one state to another or through bills
of lading, railway companies could not
exempt parties and give them special
rates Justice Shiras delivered the
opinion of the court.
The case involved the construction
of the fourth section of the interstate
commerce act, known as the long and
short haul section.
The dispute concerning this matter
is one that has been continually aris-
ing in various parts of the country and
it has been of great public Importance,
as well to the interests of commerce as
to the railways in every part of the
country that the question be put to
rest. There was also drawn into the
question, the power of the interstate
| commerce commission to fix maximum
rates in cases properly brought before
it, as distinguished from a mere de-
cision that a particular rate is exces-
sive. The three railroad companies are
| the connecting roads running from
| Cincinnati, O., to Augusta, Ga.
The litigation began through the
! complaint of seller of buggies at Gin
/ cinnati to the interstate commerce
| commission that the rates to Augusta
| at the end of the line and to Social
| Circle, which was a point on the Geor-
| gia railway fifty miles below Atlanta
were such as to unfairly discriminate
| against Social Circle. The Texas Pa
| cif1c and the Atlantic & Western roads
| claimed in their answer that the rate
| to Social Circle could only be made
| by the consent of the Georgia road or
| which it is located.
| The Georgia company admitted thai
| the rates to Social Circle were the rates
to Atlanta plus the rate from Atlanta
to Social Circle, and contended thai
| they We're not unreasonable, the rate
| to Atlanta being less than it should be
| because of the competition with line.

TO WAR ON HIM.
Kansas congressman to Take Up
the Charges
Against Gov. A. j. Smith of the
Soldiers Home.
SOMETHING is WRONG,
Say the COngressm4l, Judging
From Letters
That Pour i'm ON Them Making
Complaints.

From State Journals Correspondent.
Washington March 3D.--In spite of
the report of the house committee on
military affairs selecting Gen. w Z.
Franklin as a member of the board of
managers of National Soldiers homes,
some af the Kansas delegation Will
vote against him when the matte"
comes into the house and may make
a fight on him.
Congressman Blue has been fore
most of the opposition to Gov. A i.
Smith of the soldiers home at Leav-
enworth and he is bitterly opposed to
the selection of Franklin who, it is
said, is alone responsible Tor Govern
or Smith being kept at the Leaven-
worth home. When Mr.. Blue first
heard of Frankiin's denomination he
said he would oppose him on the toor
of the house, but he now saws he is
uncertain what course he will pur-
sue.
1t is almost certain that at least
four of the Kansas delegation in the
house will oppose the adoption OF the
committee report renominatilig Gen
Franklin. The remaining members
may join with these, their EeSitanCy
being only from desire to learn the
character of the opposition to Gov.
Smith and if possible something as to
the truth of the charges which are
. made against him.
1t VIII D0 OlI1lCUll " ON9TTlOO LIE
report of the committee but from pres
ent indications it may be said that
Congressman Blue and several if not
all the Kansas delegation will make
the attempt
1t is said that if he succeeds in get
ting Governor Smith deposed Mr.. Blue
wants his friend Major Shockley, who
is at present treasurer of the Leaven-
worth home, made governor.
There is a decided feeling here that
there are gross wrongs perpetrated by
the management of the home. 1t is
said that examiners have been sent to
make an inspection of the condition of
| things there and just as soon they
| began to make damaging reports they
| were withdrawn. Such is the power
| exercised by Governor Smith and his
| friends, it is said, that it is impossible
| through the pension office to get at
the true condition of affairs. An in
| spector is sent out and his report is a
| piece of blank paper.
| And yet men who are informed say
| they have no doubt of the charges ot
| tyrannical methods and of perfectly
temperate men being forced to take
| the Kelley cure. But these facts CAM
be got at, so completely have Governor
| Smith and his friends control over al
| the present methods of investigation.
One congressman said to the Jour
nal correspondent that he was so wei
of some of the charges against Govern
or Smiths management that if Gov.
ernor Smith were kept in control h'
was in favor of a congressional in
vestigation.
If the fight against General Frank
lin is made on the floor of the hous'
some very strong charges against Gov
ernor Smiths management will e.
made and new and sensational develop
ments are likely to result.

PERKINS FOR VICE PRESIDENT
A Western Man Being Talked of For
the Place

From State Journals Correspondent.
Washington, March 3O.-The candi-
dacy of Senator Perkins for vice-presi-
dent on the next national Republican
ticket is being taken with more seri-
BUSINESS than was expected by others
than his friends in the East and West.
There have been rumors in Washing
ton that his state and the other Pa
cific coast states were already in the
Mckinley line; but this is specifically
denied by the party leaders in Cali
fOrnia.
The Pacific coast states with the
near lying territories and Utah are
votes to ST. Louis in a bunch and only
hand them over to a candidate who
will give the far West the recogni-
tion which it wants. 1t is conceded
that Perkins is the strongest man
who could be chosen out of the far
West to strengthen the Republican
ticket, and the number of votes he will
control in the convention will make
him a power in any sort of close con-
test.
He is equally available with Nc
Kinley, Reed or Morton. With McKin-
ley he could get more Southern votes
in the convention than could any East
ern man; and with either Morton or
Reed he would be almost a necessity.
| The Eastern leaders believe that Nor
| ton is unpopular in the West on ac-
! count of his enmity to silver in any
| form and on account of his alleged
| SyTnpathieS with the mOnopolieS seat
| ed in New York. Some such man as
! Perkins would be necessary in order
to soothe the antipathy against Nor
ton; and the same is still truer Of
| Reed.
Reed is believed on the coast to ia.
| vor the Southern Pacific railroad and
| to have fixed the House committee or
| Pacific railroads in it's favor. If {
funding bill should pass this Congress:
it is not thought he could carry the
| coast

SCATTERS POWDER ABOUT
Three Attempts Made to Poison q
Family in Oregon.

Portland. Or, March 30.-Mrs. Hiram
Smith and family, of Coburg, are the
innocent victims of an unknown per-
sons hatred and live in daily fear OF
death. Repeated attempts have been
made to poison the woman and her
children and of late the would-be pois-
oner has grown bold in his attempts.
It is believed he is crazy or has
mania for murder.
This person visited the Smith home
last Thursday and left some kind of
powder on the top of the jars of milk.
Mrs. Smith does not know what the
powder was, but believes it was the
kind of poison to destroy rats and
squirrels.
On this visit the poisoner left two
notes of threatening character. On the
afternoon of the next day he again Wis
tied the premises and put another kind
of powder on the cream in the pantry.
This substance was of a whitish color,
looked like soda and tasted like con-
centrated lye.
Yesterday the family prosecutor
again gained admittance to the premi-
ses unseen by any one and scattered
poison about the well and in watering
troughs and in the grain bin. Thwart-
ed thus far in his efforts to take the
lives of the family the mysterious in
dividua1 now seems determined to
poison the stock on the ranch.

White, $51. .88; II. H. Carter, $13.10; W.N.
Roach, $91. "a; F. t. Dubois, $15.97.
It will be seen that several sena-
tors drew almost their entire allow
ance in cash. Many senators like
Senator PETER had to pay a balance in
cash because they used more than their
allowance.
Senator PETER then called attention
to the useless expenditures out of the
senate contingent fund and here are
samples of them:
cases Geneva mineral water, $20
-(thiS item is repeated a number OF
times).
1 bottle Yucca tonic .S5.
bottles listerine $1.50.
200 grain quinine pills so.
200 grain Quinine pills 80.
l case Saratoga carlsbad water $500.
1 case Massaretta water $500.
1212 gallons Buffalo lithia water SIS.
100 chlorate of potash throat tablets
rs.
These are sample items which, ap-
pear scores of times.
Senator PETER says he has used lots
of quinine since he has been in Wash
ington but he never thought of get
ting it out of the contingent fund of
the senate. He doesn't see what the
United States senate needs of Buffalo
lithia water and chlorate of potash
tablets and the like, and doesn't be-
ieve it is petty to cut off such useless
expenses.

NEARLY ALL M'KTNLEY.
Most of the Nebraska Counties Have
Elected Delegates.

Omaha, March 30.-Though Nebraska's
state Republican convention will not
be held for two weeks, a majority of
the counties have selected delegates
and the complexion Of the body is al
ready established.
The delegates are largely for McKin-
ley. though some have instructed for
Senator Henderson. There are not
enough of these delegates, however to
cause any fight in the convention even
though the members We're not disposed
to stand by the alleged McKinley-NIan-
derson compromise.
Most of the conventions declared in
favor of the election of United States
Senators by direct vote for sound
money, sympathy for Cuba, liberal pen
sions and rigid economy in the admin
istration of public affairs.

REUNION FUND.
It Continues to Grow This Morning
Reaches $2,615.

The committee to collect a festival
and reunion fund spent a short time
this morning in their canvass. They
met with the same success that has
characterized their work from the
start. They added $24O to their list.
Chairman Greenwald and Major T. J.
Anderson are most interchangeable work
ers. Today they were assisted by May
or Fellows. The territory covered this
morning was comparatively small but
the work was thoroughly done and no
one was neglected.
The committee will continue the
work through the week and they antic-
ipate that when the week is over they
will not be far from the promised goal
of $4,000. People must remember that
to give the committee what has been
promised it is necessary to have at
least the above amount, and Topeka
cannot afford to disappoint the people
of the state.
Following is the amount as it ap-
pears on the subscription papers:
Total amount subscribed last week,

HORNER LOST HIS $1,000.
Another One of Those Scalawag Gases
of Strickler, Daniels & Pounds.

Judge Hazen this morning denied a
new trial to E. F. Horner in his suit
against James A. Barney. The contro-
versy was over 81 900 payment which
was made to Stricken, Daniels &,
Pounds on an 81, 500 mortgage held by
HOrner, an eastern man.
There is no doubt that the 81, 900 was
paid to Strickler, Daniels & Pounds be-
fore the mortgage was due said the
judge, nor is there any doubt that
Horner never received it. The point is
at that time and on this particular
mortgage did Strickler, Daniels &
Pounds have authority to collect this
$1,000 for Mr.. Horner. The jury de-
cided from the evidence that they did
and I think that the testimony showed
