DAWSON FOUND GUILTY.
Walter Seott's Slayer Convicted of SET
Ond Degree Murder.

Walter Seott's Slayer Convicted Of Sec
Ond Degree Murder.
DIES MONIES, May 9.-The jury in the
case of s. R. Dawson, for shooting his
son-in-law, Walter Scott, has returned
a verdict of murder in the second de-
gree. The least punishment is 10 years
imprisonment and it may be for life.
The jury in the district court, after
hearing the instructions from Judge
Holmes, went out at 9:15 yesterday
morning and returned with verdict at
3. Dawson was brought from his cell
to hear the verdict. He was apparently
calm, although very pale, until the an
nouncement was made, when he sank
into chair and began to moan and cry.
Sentence will be passed May 16. Daw-
son said later he had expected no more
severe verdict than manslaughter. To
his jailer he said: II wish I had never
recovered my reason"
The trial has been sensational in the
extreme. The defense has been trying
to prove Dawson, who invented Damas-
Gus steel and hardened copper, insane
and that Scott ruined Dawson's
daughter, Clam. The state showed
that Scott married the girl as soon as
he had a chance. The courtroom was
crowded when the verdict was brought
in and the result meets general ap-
proval. The case will be appealed.

FIGHTING THE RAISE IN RATES.
Reason For the Suit of Northwestern Iowa
Grain Shippers.


SIOUX CITY, May 9.-Fursher partic-
ulars have come to light in connection
with the recent troubles between the
Association of Grain Dealers of North
west Iowa and the railroads running
through this part of the state, which re-
suited in decision on the part of the
association to sue for about 81 1000, 900,
alleged overcharges on grain shipments
from Iowa points to Chicago
The immediate cause of the proceed.
ings was the action Of the roads in with
drawing 17-cent grain rate, made sew
eral months ago to all towns which had
previously been charged 20 cents, and
resumption Of the old schedule. The
reduction tariff was in effect three
weeks. ...
The dealers claim the roads can con.
tinue to haul grain for II cents if they
could do it that long, and will ask the
return of the odd cents per 100 on all
shipments since the old tariff was re-
stored.
Among other grievances is the alleged
granting Of proportionately lower rates
70 eastern Iowa points than 20 those
in this section; the favorings of certain
shippers, and the granting of rebates
from towns where it was desired to give
lower rate without apparently chang
ing the tariff.

FOR IRE GLORIOUS FOURTH / WAS A PRETTY RAGE
BILLY BUTTON SHOWS HIMSELF A
TIPTOP HORSE.
l'ests Judah-Candidate for the Island
T Championship-The Match Race a
Good Turf Event.

Several hundred people were at
haplolani Park at o'clock Thursday
afternoon to witness the race between
Judah and Billy Button. The audience
was representative. As announced
the race was best three in five. mile
heats. Capt. Cluney, Thomas Wright
and Seely |. Shaw otiiciated as Judges;
Capt Cluney as starter and Carl Leon
ard as timekeeper. w. Bagby drove
Judah, and Jack Gibson held the rib
bons over Billy Button.
For the first heat the horses scored
up three times before the word was
given. 1t was neck and neck to the
first quarter, which was passed in 35
seconds. Button broke once but quick
~ recovered. The half was passed in
1:lO, and the line was made in 1923,
Button length to the good.
On second heat both horses moved
up briskly for the word and got off
on first attempt, neck and neck. Just
before getting the half Button broke
and Judah took the pole. Gibson
then made a waiting drive to the
stretch, steadying his horse for the
final contest. On the stretch Billy But
ton went for place and passed under
the line two lengths ahead in 2:26.
Third heat-The horses responded
promptly and got off first time They
went neck and neck to the quarter,
where Judah made disastrous break,
compelling Bagby to pull her down to
a standstill. This made Il clean walk
over for Billy Button. He cleared the
wire in 2:31, having held II steady pace
without a break all round.
Every detail of the race was square.
Judah's friends were satisfied, and
many of them congratulated the own
er of Billy Button on having the
speedier animal. 1t was not hard TO
see that both horses went in to win.
and the result was the result of su-
perior qualities on the part of the
victor.
Billy Button comes of good stock.
He is son of Alexander Button, Jr.,
trotter of 2:14. Alexander Button
also sired Belle Button, 2:2O; Tom
Ryder, 2:14; Rose Mack. 2:2OA: and
Henry Mack, 2:20. Billy's ancestry IL
long way back have been in the geo
class. Tom Ryder, a half brother, is
now on the American turf and is
often heard from.
Judah is unquestionably the best
Hawaiian bred sulky horse of which
there is any record. She was sired by
Marin whose record was 2:22h. Marin,
Jr., Judahs half brother, now has a
record of 2:13 in the East. At last ac-
counts he was in Chicago.

ANOTHER ACCOUNT.

Especial Correspondence of The Star. !
Truly Hawaii is land of natural
phenomena, for, following the recent
activity of ---onuaweoweo, on the
morning of last Monday, series of
tidal waves occurred, that for magn :
tude and destructive consequences
have not been approached within the
memory of the "oldest inhabitant'--
at least fifty years.
Sunday was unnaturally calm aud
especially sultry. At Sis of the next
day the waters adjacent to the Kona
coast receded for about quarter of
a mile beyond low water mark and for
II few minutes the body of old ocean
was exposed; then with gathering
force they returned like white
capped wall" the surgng element adj
vanced and with deafening roar struck
the coast, spreading a long distance
inland, levelling massive stone walls
and wrecking any buildings in its
path.
All the beach population ha left
their abodes at the first Indication of
seismic disturbance. Few, however,
had time to remove the household
goods, which, with the outgoing food
soon retreated. This gave some oppor-
tunity for re-entering their houses
and with feverish activity remaining
chatels and goods were moved to

Henry Willard has abandoned the
intention of publishing the memoirs
he has been writing; the typewritten
copy is to be bound in black morocco
and locked up as legacy for his
children. He changed his mind about
publishing the work as soon as he got
well along into the war period of his
recollection. His criticism on the
veracity and the generalship of Ger
tain Union heroes would raise storm
about his ears if he were to put them
in print.
