CALIFORNIA WINES WlW THE DAY.
They viii Be Admitted Free of Duty to
Hawaii if Under f8 Per Cent
Alcohol

HONOLULU, June 3, 1885, Minister Da-
mons wine bill has passed both houses OF
the Legislature. 1t admits duty free all
California wines under IS per cent alcohol.
This begins next new year and continues
five years.
P. c. Jones has presented to the Govern
ment a proposition from Rithet & Co. of
Victoria, B. c., to place in London 81, ,0O0,-
600 of Hawaiian bonds with per cent in
terest, at discount OF per cent and per
cent commission. In consequence the Sem
ate has promptly taken from the table Min
lister Damon's supposedly defunct bill for
refunding the Hawaiian debt at Is per cent
discount, and has recommended it to the
Executive for the necessary changes. 1t
now seems clear that the whole Hawaiian
debt will be refunded at much less sacri-
flee than Damon had planned for, which
had defeated his bill. The proposed loan
for public improvements of 100000 at
per cent interest bonds to be sold in
Honolulu, will naturally 60 to London at
per cent also. AS the ninety regular
days of the session were nearly expired.
President Dole has used his prerogative
and extended the session ten days longer
P. C. Jones has thus indicated his
sagacity in opposing the sale of bonds at
Is per cent discount, as well as his disin-
terestedness in that opposition, it having
been claimed that he was biased by all in
clination as lender of money to keep up
rates of interest in Honolulu.

Fomented Hallucinations That

Asylum.
STRANGE TALES OF WITNESSES
Supposititious Telephone Messages
Telling of Her Husbands
Inconsistency.

STOCKTON, CAL, June 10.-An, inter-
esting case is on trial before Judge Smith of
Department of the Superior Court Some
time ago Mrs. Copsey, wife of one of the
wealthy men OF this county, was adiudged
insane and her estate was placed in charge
of a man named Davis as her guardian.
She had peculiar hallucinations at that
time, and believed she heard messages
through the walls Of her home which told
her of the improper conduct of her aged
husband with other women. She had, be-
fore that, suffered a stroke of paralysis
which affected her brain, and she was
taken before the courts here and adiudged
incompetent to manage her own affairs.
Since then she has recovered somewhat
from her stroke of paralysis and she now
believes she is perfectly able to manage
her own affairs Her guardian is vigor-
ousIy contesting her action to oust him
from his position.
1t was shown to-day that every effort
was made by Mrs. Copsey's nurses and
others to foment Mrs. Copsey's hallucina-
tions when her mind showed signs of
weakening. A fake telephone was placed
in her room, and the nurse would pretend
to telephone to a leading grocer in the
city, where Copsey was in the habit of
trading. She would pretend to receive re-
plies to the effect that the invaEd's hus-
band was drunk and that he was consort-
ing with Chinese and with negresses. Mrs.
Copsey's counsel to-day endeavored to
show that all these and other acts were in
tended to assist in unhalancing her mind.
1t was shown this afternoon that Mrs.
Copsey had made will in which she left
the bulk of her fortune to her guardian,
who is lighting the present contest on her
part to be declared competent, and that
she left very little to her husband. 1t was
also brought out by the testimony that
some of the ranchhands on the Copsey
place were made to masquerade as women
for the purpose of mysifying the woman
whose mind was supposed to be failing.
One of these ranchhands, who is known
as Dutch Harry, gave Testimony to this
effect to-day.
Robert North rup, one of the witnesses
for Mrs. Copsey, gave some damaging tes-
timony against the nurse who made use OF
the supposititious telephone. He afte
ward admitted on cross examination that
he had served term in San Quentin for
stage-robbery, having pleaded guilty to
the charge. The case will be continued
tomorrow.

WASHINGTON, D. c., June 1O.-In the
Senate to-day Hill Cd of New York
moved to proceed with the consideration
of the bill as to contempts of court (arising
out of the Debs case). An appeal was
made to him by Mitchell (R. of Oregon
not to press the motion, but to permit the
consideration of the House joint resolu-
ton looking to the reorganization of the
Northern Pacific Railroad Company. Hill
listened to MitchelPs appeal, but per-
sisted, nevertheless, in his motion. The
contempt -of-court bill was then taken up
and PETER (Pop.) of Kansas addressed the
Senate upon 1t, expressing his satisfaction
with the bill.
The amendment offered by Cannon (R.)
of Utah, making e jury trial obligatory
and not discretionary with the Judge, was
agreed to- and the bill as amended was
passed. 1t divides contempts of court
into two classes-direct and indirect.
Contempts committed during the sitting
of the court or of judge in chambers are
direct contempts, ali others are indirect.
A direct contempt may be punished sum-
marily. In the case of indirect contempt
a reasonable opportunity is to be given the
accused to purge himself of such contempt
and to have trial by jury. A judgment
of conviction for indirect contempt may
be reviewed upon direct appeal or by writ
of error from the Supreme Court, and be
affirmed, reversed or modified.
At o'clock message was received from
the House announcing agreement on the
sundry civil bill the House receding from
its disagreem9nt to the Senate amend
ments for the erection of various public
buildings.
The Senate then at IL o'clock adjourned
until tomorrow at II o'clock.

Armenians Accused of Starting Fires
Which Destroyed the Homes of
Two ColonistS.

FRESNO, CAL, June 10.-The Sheriff 5
force, District Attorney Snow and the
local Constabulary are still seeking the
assassin of the Shahamarian family. They
are all looking for the murderer is Rus
siantown.
Although the prediction that the muir
derer would be arrested to-day was not full
filled, yet some important evidence was
discovered.
The silence of the Russians in regard to
the murder must be broken, and this is
very difficult to do. Spies will be sent
among them to learn what they know.
A CALL correspondent, working in con-
junction with Deputy Constable Crutcher,
ascertained to-day the names of some of
the Russians who had made threats
against Benjamin Shahamarian, declaring
that he, who had visited women and little
girls, ought to be shot or hanged.
This is important, as heretofore it has
been impossible to learn who made such
statements. 1t supplies clew to work
upon.
AS the Armenians are now charging the
Russians with the triple murder, the
Russians are charging the Armenians with
drowning little Russian boy in the river
several months ago.
The boys body was found upon the
bank of the stream.
Last night two homes in Russiantown
were burned. The Russians now allege
that the fires were the work of Armenians.
