You Read

A good deal nowadays
about the cheapness at which
you can purchase certainline
of goods.
Yougenerally flndupon in
vestigation that the heapness
is only in the bare statement
of the dealer, and is not
borne out by fact.

received from sale of the tickets
was paid over to Ko Chun every
day. If Shida did not have enough
money on hand he claims that Ko
Chun provided it.
In the transaction of this
part of the business the Jap
anese adapted rather cute
method. The man who took the
tickets to Ko Chun went alone and
was followed at a safe distance by
Shida with the bag Of coin. The
object of this was that In the event
of the man with the tickets being
arrested there would be no money
lost, while if the banker was ar
rested there would be no evidence
to connect him with the game.
The Japanese who were placed
on the witness stand told their
tales with a straightforwardness
that was suggestive of scheme to
put Ko Chun into the scrape with
both feet, which, in this instance,
seem to be lefts.
Men who are familiar with the
methods of conducting such games
and who have known this class of
japanese are free to state that the
whole affair is a conspiracy on
their part to get out of the hole
and put the Cinnamon into it.
Judge de la Vergne reserved his
decision in the case and he may
render it today.
If the arrest of the japanese has
done nothing else it has made

rendezvous for idle japanese who
live largely upon the earnings OF
prostitutes. These men and other
gamblers would meet at this place
and purchase slips. Twice each
day runners took them from Shida's
place to the shop of Ko Chun where
the lucky ones had theirs cashed.
Shida's house stands at the head
of an alley back of the Engine
house. A dozen policemen might
90 through it and find nothing
more readable than copy of the
convention between Hawaii and
Japan; there was little or no furnl-
ture in the rooms, not even a bed.
But under the house there is a
cellar, to reach which you must
pass through the house into the
yard; turn to the right and go to
the end of the house and to the
right again and you find an open
ing leading to the cellar.
All that was found there was a
half bushel of burnt matches and
table, and it was in this place the
tickets were sold. Drawings were
paid here also, and the money

lit Is Not
Reasonable

To suppose that a dealer who
knows his business, who
knows values, as no novice
can know them, would
charge you for his knoWl-
edge. knowledge of goods
makes it easy for him to pur-
chase right; and to sell right.
We claim to carry the best
goods known in our various
lines, and quality considered
sell them lower than most
houses in our line of trade.
1t is quality we brag on; it
is the backing we give our
goods which make them

question but what our

just back of the Chinese engine
house.
The tip was taken, and in the
busy hours of that night halt
dozen of the finest came down like
an avalanche upon cotrie of ORR
entails, who considered themselves
safe from the glare of a judicial
head light, as they were then in a
cellar in house occupied by
japanese named Shida.
Their hope had SOME foundation,
because the house in which the
banking business was carried on.
is quite out of the way of general
traffic, and unless people went there
for the purpose of something, it was
not likely that the place would be-
come known to the public.
When che ia was at the zenith Of
its popularity a few years ago, a
Chinese painter occupied the dwell
ling. But the painting business
was dull and che ia had promis-
ing outlook; a safe was bought and
carried there, to hold the dimes
and nickles of the Hawaiiahs who
played with tickle fortune.
Among the japanese arrested
were Katsu and Auga. There were
also present, sitting around the
table in the cellar four Japanese
women. In the table drawer Were

all kinds of tickets which the
women promptly confessed belong
ed to one Shida.
There was no money in sight nor
were those who were in the mouldy
place playing. AS the men were
anxious to tell who ran the game
they were given an opportunity.
The man was described as a fat
Chinaman who kept tailor shop
ON 1daunakea street and whose
name is Ko Chun. They were will
ing, also, to provide that the officers
should meet the Chinaman at a
time when he should he in good
condition to pluck.
With this promise in hand all
the japanese were released. Later
Ko Chun was arrested. On Friday
and Saturday last he was tried be-
fore Judge de la Vergne IN the
District Court. L. A. Thurston de-
tended the prisoner and David
Kappa prosecuted.
From the evidence Shida had the
house and the place was used as a

known to the police the fact that
the place is the resort of gamblers
and Migrants such as are provided
for in the convention between Ha-
wall and Japan. Several of the
witnesses testified on the stand
that they had not been engaged in
legitimate employment since July
last. Other testimony to the effect
that japanese had che ia shop
on Fort street.
When the police department
takes out its net to make haul
of Migrants, Shida's house will be
found a pretty good fishing ground.

A Fact

That you cannot purchase

which third-rate goods are
sold?
How temptingly the cheap

how fluently the dealer stuffs

How often you make the

not quite as good as his word,
in fact no good at all.

WATSON WILL STAY.
Says His Retirement Now Would
Mean MCKinIey'S Election.

Birmingham, Ala, Oct. 21 Tom Watson
spoke at Capital Park, in this city, to-
night, to an audience of about $500. He
was attentively heard and frequently
checred.
A few minutes before he began speak
ing n telegram was handed to him, but
he did not divulge its contents, to the dis
appointment of many who supposed it had
reference TO the deal said to be on in Chi
cago.
Mr.. Watson's speech was an agreeable
surprise in many respects. He did not
denounce Sewal and said he had never
indulged in abuse of that gentleman. But
hIs party, said ne, which had always de
could not support a plutocrat.

did not intend to come down. Il am in

ingnen that they were being coerced by
their employers to vote contrary to thei:
convictions.
1.-The chairman of their national commit
tee, Hon. james X. Jones, has emphasized
this policy in a proclamation in which he
boldly charges the employing classes OF the
country with having entered into con-
spiracy to coerce their employees into vot-
ing contrary to their opinions. This is a
very grave charge, and il has now assumed
a form that justifies giving 1t some atten-
tion.
ITO coerce n voter is "a crime against the
laws of the land and if Messrs. Bryan
and Jones know of coercion they made
themselves accornplices Of the criminals By
not informing the proper authorities and
taking steps for prosecution.
while we consider the charge absurd,
and believe that American wOrkingnieii
and employers are too independent and
patriotic either to be coerced or to cocrce,
the Republican national committee will do
anything in its power to protect worklIig-
men in the free and untranImeled exercise
of their rights as citizens. and will chee
fully unite with the National Democratic
committee in any movement having that
object in view.
Coercion of voters is not only an I'M
American, unpalriUtic and despotic uStir-
patton of the rights of free citizens, but
II is wrong that will inevitably recoil
upon It's perpetrators. 1t is an arbitrary
Use of power that is in direct conflict with
the principles of our government. The
civil compact of the majority rule means
free maJorities, for whose protection all
constitutional powers should be used, and
without which Il political victory would be
barren of results worthy OF a great party.
This committee Will spare no pains to
secure 10 every citizen, whatever his poli-
tics, the right to cast his vote according
To his convictions. and to have his vote
honestly counted"

RISE In WHEAT.
Chairman Jones Says 1t Proves
Theory of Silver Men.

Chicago, Oct. Ex-senator Jones. chair
man OF the Democratic national committee,
was intervie wed today by q reporter for
the United Associated Presses regarding
the DrOnunciamento or Chairman Babcock
of the Republican Congressional committee,
in which Mr.. BabCoCk insists that the re-
cent rise in the price OF wheat, While the
price OF silver has declined indicates that
tne CLAIMS OF tbs. silver men that the price
OF wheat depends on the price of an ounce
of silver, are unfuuuded. The Senator
said:
The advance in the price Of bushel
of wheat proves rather than disproves the
theories of the silver men. our contention
has been that the wheat of India COM
petcd with our American W heat in the Liver
pool markets; that the Liverpool merchant
could. in normal times, buy in India at any
time during the past twenty-three years
a bushel of wheat for about one ounce
of silver. When the ounce of silver was
worth $129 in gold in 1873 this meant
that the buShel UI wheat was worth about
that in gold.
But although the Indian wheat farmer
has always been willing to take an ounce
Of silver for Il bushel of wheat, the ounce
of silver has fallen in value owing to its
decentralization and misuse, and conSc-
quently, the geld value of the ounce
Of silver declined the gold value of the
bushel of wheat declined, and the Ameri-
can farmer has been compelled To receive
the gold equivalent of the ounce OF silver
for his bushel of wheat. This meant n
gradual decline in the price from 81 80
or ST 30 a bushel in 1873 to 60 or IS
cents in 1893
The real cause, therefore, of the decline
in the gold value Of our wheat, was largely
