solve the labor problem and keep
the men more contented by send
ing home money in the name of
the laborers and receiving replies
for them they believe that the
influence of the home letters will
keep the men in a more contented
state and do away with any in
clination to desert contract service.
Another incentive to the avoid
ance of this latter deplorable char
acteristic of japanese laborer will
be in the fact that once a laborer
deserts he forfeits his right to any
portion of his passage money in
the hands of the company.
This company agrees also to
give bond to the Government
guaranteeing to bring to the ISL
ands field laborers only, who, at
the expiration of their contracts
will be returned to Japan. Dur
ing the time they are in the coun-
try they shall not enter any other
line of trade nor can they come in
competition with white citizens as
merchants or laborers.
4 The authorities in Japan desire
the laborers to return to their
homes as soon as their contracts
expire and the company will see
that the wishes of the Government
are complied with. 4
This plan has been in operation
in Australia for some time and
has proven very successful. 1t is
only an experiment here but it
may be more satisfactory than any
yet tried.

Accident at the Hotel.

Between s and 9 o'clock last
night people in the dining room
and Railways of the Hawaiian
Hotel were startled by a crash in
the kitchen and rushing out into
that place, they found Manuel De
Mello stretched out upon the floor
in an unconscious condition.
Five Portuguese laborers had
been employed by the management
of the kitchen and were at their
work mounted on scafolds made
of boards placed from rafter to
rafter, Manuel de Mello was work
ing in the mauka Waikiki corner
of the kitchen when suddenly the
board upon which he was standing
broke. Manuel fell head first and
struck his back upon the large
table directly beneath. One of the
legs of this was broken by the blow
and Manuel fell to the floor in an
unconscious condition.
DIR. Miner was called in and
recommended that the man be re-
moved to the hospital Immediately.
At a late hour last night the man
was resting comfortably, and it is
believed that the injury done his
back is not serious.

CASHED BY THE WRONG MAN.
A Draft Which Caused the Arrest
of A. ]. Smith.

Deputy United States Marshal
J. D. Harris last night arrested A.
J. Smith, who claims to be in the
secret service of the Hawaiian
Government. Smith is charged
with cashing a draft for $1S.75
addressed to a man bearing his
name. The complaint was made
by Assistant Cashier Burns of the
United States SubTreasury before
Commissioner Heacock.
The A. J. Smith to the draft was
a restaurant keeper at the Mid
winter Fair. He returned revenue
stamps to Washington and the
Treasury Department sent him the
draft. The wrong A. j. Smith
cashed it and it was not until a
few days ago that the fact was dis
covered. The prisoner claims he
intended to return the money. He
was taken to the County Jail, being
unable to furnish $1,000 bonds.

ELIZABETH RILEY JOHNSON.

MRS. JOHNSON was born at Alexandria, Ken
lucky, May 16. 1912, and with her parents
Robert and Esther Riley. came to Cincinnati in
early life, where on May 6. 1880. she became
the wife of Rev. Thomas II. johnson To them
were born four sons AMI three daughters. A
husband. three sons and one daughter still
tarrY upOl the shOrt of time. AS the evening
shadows. Sunday even ng, May "a, 1896, fell
upon the earthly home her spirit passed to the
home immortal. For 81 Aty-sx years this aged
couple have in C mpanonship passed the jour
ney of life in the City of Cincinnati and enjoyed
the blessings of our holy faith. Mrs. johnson
was modest and retiring in her demeanor, a
keeper at home and devotedly attached to her
family. She was truly Christian wife, mother
and neighbor and made the world brighter and
better by living in 1t. She was a helpmate to
our good brother through the long journey
which they have travelled together They were
among the pioneers of Universalism in Gin
cinnati. Only those who had part in the early
struggles of our Church in Cincinnati can esti-
mate the cost of its maintenance. Without
wavering they have borne the banner of saliva
tion aloft through all these years. Bro. John
son, now So years old, fees keenly his loneli-
ness, but realizes that he can almost sea across
the river, where. ere many sunsets he, too, will
be ferried over and join the loved ones gone
before,
Robert Riley was one of the early landmarks
of Universalism in Cincinnati. With the nine
teenth century the most of that noble band of
fathers and mothers will have passed to the
shores of the immortal. The funeral services
were conducted by the Undersigned at the resi-
dence on Mount Auburn after which the re-
mains were deposited in Spring Grove.

The reports of the Marine Hospital
Bureau show that Europe is free from
cholera. The disease entirely disap-
peared in Russia before the end Of March
and for some months past not case has
been discovered in any other European
country. A few days ago there were
cable reports that there had been two or
three deaths from cholera in Marseilles.
The Consul of the United States at Mar
settles has since informed the Marine
Hospital Bureau that there is mo chol-
era" there. The original dispatches
appear to have been misleading. 1t is
we'll to remember that the authorities OF
Marseilles have 10 past years attempted
to conceal from the outside world the
presence of the disease in their city.
There is danger that cholera may be
brought into Europe from Egypt. where
the epidemic is growing, The authori-
ties in Cairo and Alexandria find it very
difficult to enforce sanitary laws owing
to the ignorance and superstitious oppo-
sitiop of the people.

that place.

IT is announced from the State De-
partment that no immediate action is to
be taken with respect to the granting of
belligerent rights to the Cuban insur-
gents. The passage of the Cuban con-
current resolutions by Congress was a
strong expression of sympathy for the
revolutionists, but inasmuch as they
were concurrent and not joint resolu-
tions no executive action upon them was
necessary. The Executive Department
was left free to treat the subject as the
settled rules of international law applied
to the facts in the possession of the
State Department might require. 1t is
possible that the question of the recog
milton of Cuban belligerency may be one
of the legacies to be bequeathed by
the present Administration to its sue
cessor.

The feeling among the delegates and
politicians as shown by the dispatches
from that city, is toward an unqualified
declaration by the Convention in favor
of the existing monetary standard and
against free silver coinage. There is
practically no longer any candidate in
the field against Mckinley for the Presi-
dental nomination. The latest report is
that New York will be rendered the Vice.
Presidency and that Gov. Morton will
accept the nomination.

THE feeling that the Convention will
declare positively and unequivocally
against free coinage is at this writing
very evident. Even those from the
South and West agree that the trend is
strongly in that direction, aud many OF
these admit that any straddle, however
narrow and guarded, would be an error
fraught with jeopardy in November.
But, while these indications are appar-
emit, there is exhibited great concern
touching the language that shall be en-
ployed to give it expression and force.
There is a repugnancy to using the
phrase gold standard" not because OF
it's literal meaning and relation, but be-
cause all classes of those friendly to the
white metal have a strong antipathy to
that phrase. Even strong sound-money
men like Thurston, of Nebraska, and
Henderson, of Iowa, agree that the use
of the words "gold standard" would be
impolitic, and prefer that they shall be
omitted and phrases employed that will
be equally strong in describing the adj
vocacy of the existing monetary stand
ard, while at the same time expressing
unequivocal opposition to opening the
mints to the free coinage Of silver. 1t is
believed by those on the ground that the
platform will be adopted on Wednesday
or Thursday and that the nomination
will be made not later than Friday. 1t
may come earlier.
