THE 5. A. AND THE POLICE
ALL DISPUTES ARE Sol FLED BY
AN OFFICIAL STATEMENT.
Marshal Browns Orders-Places that
Are Tabu-The Star Reported Cor
rectly-Traffic Not to Be Obstructed.

With respect to the Misrepresentation
Mr.. Sturdevant and others OF the Sal
vation Army seem to be laboring
under in relation to the localities in
this city which are tabu for meeting
purposes, Marshal Brown states to The
Star: The Salvation Army has had
from the first explicit orders not to
hold meetings at the crowded corners
of Fort and Hotel streets, and not to
block traffic of the sidewalks in auy
locality. These instructions have been
repeatedly disregarded and we have
been given no little trouble on that
account. Numerous complaints of .he
Army blocking the streets have been
sent in by citizens and reported by
officers.
"On Saturday night the Army
opened out again opposite the Pan
theon saloon on Hotel street and,
am informed, blocked the sidewalk.
The officer did his duty in arresting
them. Hereafter officers will have in
structions to clear the sidewalks wher-
ever they may be found obstructed.
"As to the streets: Owing to the in
fraction of my orders with respect to
street meetings, i have found il nee
essary to again order the army away
from Fort and Hotel streets and to
prescribe the places in the neighbor-
hood where they may hold their SER
vices.
a. They are not in future to
stop on Fort street at all at any place.
(2.) 'The only spot on Hotel street
they will be allowed to hold meetings
will be in the middle of the road op-
posfte Roach's barber shop. There
traffic must not be obstructed and the
meeting must not extend upon the
sidewalks
(3.) Il have also given them per
mission to hold meetings in the square
at the head of Union street near No. 2
fire house so long as the residents of
that neighborhood do not object.
''These rules will be strictly en-
forced, and if more trouble is given
guilty ones will have to stand the con.
sequences"

French Wove Corsets

Are recommended as beyond all COM
parison the best lady can buy. They
are perfect in shape, most comfortable
in wear, and impart in perfection that
graceful symmetry which so favorably
distinguishes the present style Of
dress. To ladies who are used to ord
mary corsets, the delightful sense of
ease, comfort and support derived
will come as pleasant revelation. l..

TWO OPINIONS ON COFFEE
ARE SENT TO MR.. CHAS. L. WIGHT
FROM THE COAST.
Dealers Have Samples Roasted and
Compared-An Article Pronounced
Superior to Kona.

The following two letters are in the
series which Mr.. {. l.. Wight, who is
doing a great work in the interest of
coffee, is receiving from dealers and
experts. The first is from j. A. Fol-
ger d Co., importers of coffee in San
Francisco since 1850. S. C. Bickford
is a broker and expert.
San Francisco, Aug. 3, 1896.
Mr.. c. l.. Wight, Honolulu, II. /.
Dear Sir:-Referring to sample of
coffee mentioned in your favor of the
21st ult., we would say that we have
had it roasted and compared it with
the coffees that you had when here
last, also with the Kona, the custom
airy quality we have been receiving,
and find that it is superior to the Roma
coffee of current quality. We do not
think it is equal to the Puma cotfecs,
samples of which you delivered to MS
while here. The coffee has "a very good
appearance in the berry and would to-
day bring probably 10, perhaps 1ohc
in San Francisco. The market, how
ever, is tending downward for all cof-
fees and any approximate or estimated
price which we might quote today
would not be guaranteed for any
length of time. The New York mar
ket is very weak, as are also the for
eignl markets. We enclose also an
opinion of Mr.. Bickford, whom you
met here. Very truly yours,
j. A. FOLGER e. CO.

BEER WAR.
Opposition to the Trust Promises
Cheap Drinks.

CHICAGO.-The beer trust. which
has been keeping prices up, and the
size of glasses down, is almost thing
of the past. 1t is said that before
another week has rolled around the
foamy beverage will be so plentiful
and cheap that it's devotees will be
able to purchase and use it for bathing
purposes if they so desire.
The downfall of the trust is said TO
have been brought about by the j.
Obermann Brewing Company of Mil
waukee, which crept into the business
in Chicago. The result has been that
are now getting their
beer for 81 Il barrel, whereas the de-
cision of the Chicago brewers was that
beer should be SIS barrel, rain or
shine, hot or cold.
Now the trust threatens to retaliate
1t is said that before the week is out
beer will be selling for $3 in Chicago,
and that the fight will be kept up un-
til some one gets tired and quits.

Not my hack. Mine was broken and
got another from my Chinese en-
ployer. Don't know who Jap was.
Don't know where he was going or
town after 4. Nearly an hour getting
back. Did not stop anywhere.
On being reminded that an hour was
a rather long passage from Waikiki,
the young man corrected himself and
said: Yes; I did stop twice. Talked
to some Cinnamon beyond Thomas
Square. Know them but not their
names. Had some milk and talked
with driver. Don't know who driver
was. Stopped next at Metropolitan
Meat market This was after 4. Went
from there to stand on Bethel street
and stayed until nearly S. Got a
Chinaman to take me home and was
arrested on the way"
The young man vigorously denied
burglarizing the Office of the Tram
man. When asked if he knew he was
suspected of the former he said that
he did and that he had been chased
up by the police ever since. He added
that he and his roommate, Bos'n Ben,
were both suspected of the robbery.
Deputy Marshal Hitchcock states
that when the burglary was commit
ted last week he at once suspected
Fitzgerald. Some days before he was
arrested for entering and abstracting
two carriage wheels from Z. b. Muir
rays shop. He plead guilty to this
charge and sentence was suspended on
condition that he leave the country
within ten days. The deputy Marshal
says he expected him to make a dive
for funds before his time to leave in
order that he might arrive flush" in
some other country. Events have, to
all appearances, so worked them
selves out.
LATER-This afternoon Capt. Park
er and posse made another search of
| Fitzgerald's house. In one of the
rooms several pieces of change tags
were found. Another piece was found
in Fitzgerald's bed room over what
proved later to be trap door. Moth
ing was found beneath the trap. Be
fore leaving, however, Capt. Parker
happened to glance into an open stove
about half foot in ashes, which stood
on the yerandah and saw several
pieces of Hawaiian Tramwavs change
packages. The officer raked his hand
in the ashes and dug up several nick
els. A couple of dollars in the small
change were taken out and the stove
taken to the station house. In fur
ther search of the rooms about 81
more in packages was found. The
stove matter is explained by the as.
sumption that in the hurry to get rid
of the tell-tale papers several of the
packages went unopened into the fire
Bos'n Ben, room mate of Fitzgerald
was arrested by Capt. Parker and is
held for investigation in connection
with the case. 1t is believed in police
circles Fitzgerald will confess and tel
where the remainder of the money j,
cached.

Knowing Ones

Knowing ones invariably call for
Pabst Milwaukee instead of merely
asking for Milwaukee beer. Anyone
desirous of ascertaining what Pabst
Milwaukee Draught Beer is, can do
so by calling at the Royal, Pacific and
Cosmopolitan saloons, where it will
be served to them cold and sparkling
and at the same price as other beers.

CROWDED HOUSE.

The Elsie Adair Company opened al
the Chinese theater Monday evening.
AS was to be expected the house was
packed. There was quite a large rep
resentation of whites on the stage and
in the galleries. One of the galleries
was given over entirely to natives and
there were many more in the main
audience. The program was substan-
TALLY the same as has been given in
the military opera house. Mr.. En-
NETT and Miss Adair were specially
well received. Tne Chinese part of the
audience did not seem TO catch on very
well to the music. TO them, accord
ing to the best interpreters, the piano
cannot hold a light TO the tom-tom.

moralizing and scaEdalous contract system
would put a stop to the nernicious custom
