CHICAGO, Aug. 6.-The Inter Ocean
tomorrow will say: Through the refus-
al of the Chicago Great Western road to
turn over 100000 in cash. to even up it's
percentage, the existence of money
pool among the roads west of Chicago
has been discovered The facts in the
case leaked out tonight after the adj
journment of the interstate commerce
commission hearing. General Freight
Agent Stohr of the Chicago Great West
ern was the first witness before the COM
mission this afternoon. Stohr was the
first railroad officer ever to acknowl-
edge to the commission the giving of
cut rate. He said on June is he author
lied rate of cent per 100 pounds below
tariff on a shipment of thirty caS,oads
of export grain from Kansas City to
Liverpool, England. After the adjourn
ment it was discovered that the present
attempts of competitors of this road to
prove its officers guilty of rate cutting
was on account of the refusal of this line
to turn over 100000, which it was ahead
in money pool now in existence among
the roads of the Western Freight asso-
citation. 1t has been in secret operation
for nearly one year and the Great West
ems lack of confidence in its stability
caused it to refuse to even up its bcS-
ances. The western roads have all
along professed innocence of maintain
ing any sort of an arrangement for the
division of traffic money. If the com.
mission sees fit. it can now prove the ex-
istence of this pool beyond a shadow
of a doubt.

rels as a wrestler and also prize of
$50 In dancing the honors fell to Ma
saki. resident of Paia. 1t is said that
he won about $40.
There was a rumor of a rife, match
for prizes at WaiIuku, but the contest
will now take place, so it is reported,
on New Years. 1t is the Lahaina Cit
izen Guard VS.. Wailuku Citizen Guard.
Ten picked men from each company
will shoot at their ranges in Waikiki
and Lahaina.
Grinbaum & Co.'S store at Hama,
which was recently burned, will be re-
built very soon. 1t is to be building
about 5Ox3O feet, with spacious veran-
das. The Hama Central Telephone Of
fee will be included in the structure.
Among the holiday visitors in Ma
kawao are Miss Willard of Punahou,
who is a guest at Maunaolu Seminary;
Miss Edith Eldredge, who is being en-
tertained by Mr.. and Mrs. Dickey at
Haiku; Miss Mary Beckwith and
Messrs. Lyle and G. w. Dickey, who
are visiting their parents at Haiku.

w. w. DIMOND.

The holiday season has
been one of exceptional and
unexpected prosperity to us.
For weeks past we have
been calling attention to
fancy goods as well as those
of an ornamental character.
We might have advertised
strictly useful articles, but
people as a rule, draw the
line at cumbersome presents
placed in the hosiery hung
besides the hearth. A Jewell
stove, for instance, would be
injurious to the average Ho-
nolulu stocking, but it would
have been most acceptable
in the homes of a great many
people here.
We have just received a
very large invoice of these
stoves in all sizes, from the
smallest to the largest made
at the factory. Our prices
for these stoves are so rea-
that one of them
should be in every home in
Honolulu.
Our method of. selling to
island customers is an innO-
walton to the people Of the
islands; the price of the
stove in our store is the
same at any shipping port in
the islands = we pay the
freight from Honolulu.

A crowd of New Berlin enthusiasts
came into the city yesterday and to show
their loyalty to the cause Of Mckinley,
they carried several banners. Among the
number was one bearing the truthful
statement: Hanna Pays the Bills" 1t
was an honest admission Of the methods
of the plutocrats, but 1t proved to be a

the combined train matter OF five Of our
astute managers TO evolve enough argu-
ment to finally cause the patriotic New
Berliners to effe,tually dispose Of what
they considered frst.class campaign

CALLED ON HIM.
Gen. Sherwood Visited at His Home
by a Delegation of Rail
road Men.

The railroad men who came to Canton
Saturday were very much interested In
politics. They know that the success Of
William y. Bryan Is the best thing that
could happen for them, and they show
their interest further by being alive to
the fact that IL Is essential that man
who believes In the money Of the oonsti-
tuition should be sent to congress. Several
Democrat office and others made particu.
lar inquiries as to the Democratic oandi.
date for congress- and whether he was q
free coinage man. Learning that he was,
a number OF them got together and
walked up Walnut street to the home of
General I. r. Sherwood, and paid him a
visit. General Sherwood greeted the
callers very cordially. He did not make
a speech from the front porch of his resi-
dence, but invited his guests into the
house, where an hour was spent In sooia
conoourse. A light luncheon was served
and the time passed pleasantly. The
men called to assure General Sherwood
that the greater part of the railroad
workers were free coinage men and that
they we're interested not only in electing
Mr.. Bryan, but in electirg silver men to
congress. They deplored the fact that
they did not live in this district, but
stated that from what they had learned,
railroad men residing in the district
would give him cordial support. They
were much pleased st his endorsement by
the Canton Trades and Labor Assembly,
assuring him the support Of labor in the
district. Those who called on General
Sherwood assured him that about 20
per cent. of the delegations Saturday were
Bryan men. Not all of them called on
him, or he would have had larger crowd
than congregated in North Market street,
but he appreciated the visit of those who
did call.

C0XEY'S STATEMENT
OF Expense Whopper For Man Who
Pretends to Purity in Elec.
tiOn Methods.

Jacob 3. Coyey, has filed his full con.
vention bill OF expenses amounting to
$40 65 with the clerk of the court. 1t
is most interesting document, in view
of the fact that every dollar of the expense
was for the payment Of delegates to go to
Alliance to vote for him as candidate
for congress, and TO pay Dave Rankin of
Cleveland, to work up delegation for
Coxey in Mahoning county. Coxey is
guilty of plain violation of the law,
Section 7041, Revised Statutes of Ohio,
which says:
whoever gives directly or indirectly,
any reward, fee or money or property to
influence the vote Of any delegate or cleo
tor In favor Of or against any candidate
for any labor or service rendered to any
candidate for nomination or election to
any Office whatever, or for any expense
incurred, shall be fined not more than
$500 and be imprisoned in the peniten-
tiary not more than FIVE years"
Coxey's excuse for allowing his name
to be used by the illegal Populist conven-
tion was because the regular convention
was packed with delegates from the
several counties Of the district. In MAX
ing these wild charges, which he, in no
sense, could substantiate, he evidently
forgot that he paid the fare of twenty two
Msssillon citizens, besides that of J. f..
Flynn and other Canton citizens, for
the purpose of packing the Populist con-
vention, having no other idea in view
than that OF compelling the support Of
these same delegates in his candidacy
before the convention. Many of the dele
gates from Columbiana, Mahoning and
Stark county, who were in attend snce at
the convention, had a kindly feeling
towards Coxey until they saw his open
attempt to pack the convention by a
fragrant use of money. These men will
now fight any attempt he Haay make to
have his name appear on the Populist
ticket, and will appear 10 force before the
election board on Tuesday TO prevent the
BOARD of elections accepting his pomina-
tion as a legitimate one.
Coxey's flagrant use of money to secure
the nomination for congress from Popu-
list convention ought to and will damn
him in the eyes OF every decent Populist
In the district.

NAPoLEONIc TENT.

Napoleon's tent was pitched with grace,
Beyond the arch, on grassy place;
Beside the street that stretches past
The house of Bonaparte the last.
1t seemed his glory to portray
In Napoleonic way;
1t made us think Of battles great
When force decides nations fate
We thought who paid for all this show
To bring the people down SO low,
That they must march to Tyrants' tent
Or lose their job without consent.
But even the winds and hail and rain
Combined with strength and might and
main
To rend the tent or greed and blight
And wiped it out In one short night.
1t was, indeed, a" Waterloo"
1t came at night as you would do.
1t augurs we'll for silver brighs
And freemen freed from Mammon's
blight. V.
