PATROLMEN UNDER ARREST.
FOUR OF CAPTAIN RENKIN'S MEN
IN JAIL.
interrupted in Drunken Revel, They
Unmercifully Beat Two Natives--A
Serious Affair.

Mounted Patrolman Gillis, Hewitt,
Conley and Jim Cornwall are behind
the bars at the City Prison with
charges against them of such a serious
nature that a sojourn on the reef is
in prospect for the entire quartet. Ac-
sessed by Marshal Brown. Gillis and
his comrades after going on duty last
night repaired to a house on Punch
bowl street where they met several
native women and started in on an
all-night revel. Two natives, Kekaha
and Kukalahewa, relatives of the
women, entered the place about 2
o'clock this morning, and objected to
the sports. They were set upon by
the officers, beaten numerically and
finally placed under arrest and taken
to the police station.
Hewitt and Conley took the men to
the station and preferred charges of
assault and battery against them.
The officers were clearly under the in
fuence of liquor and the natives so
badly beaten about the head that the
captain of the watch grew suspicious
and telephoned for Captain Parker.
While they were waiting for the SEN
ior captain the women with whom
the patrolmen had been drinking en-
tered the station and told the whole
story. Captain Parker on his arrival
found the natives so seriously injured
that he summoned DR.. Emerson, who
dressed the wounds temporarily and
sent the men to the hospital.
Marshal Brown, after Il brief inves-
tigation of the matter, decided to
place the patrolmen under arrest.
They were ordered to appear before
him at 9 o'clock this morning, and on
arriving at the station were promptly
placed under arrest on charges of as
sault and battery on Kekalia and
kukalahewa. Each man was relieved
of his star and locked up in a separ-
ate cell.
The Marshal is exceedingly angry
over the affair. Some of the officers
under arrest have been in trouble be-
fore, notably Gillis. Hewitt and Con-
ley have been on the force about two
years, but Cornwall and Gillis only II
few months. The men went on duty
at 0 o'clock last night. AS nearly as
the Marshal can learn they met at the
Punchbowl-street house about 10
a. m, when the trouble occurred.
After the natives had been beaten
the patTolmen realized the predica-
ment they were in, anu arrested the
men to cover up their tracks, telling
a cock and bull story about being set
upon by the natives and finding it
necessary to use their clubs in self
defense.
The natives are in the hospital. suf-
fering from several severe scalp
wounds and contusions. It is stated
that one of the patrolmen broke his
club over the head of one of the ma
tives and then iabbed the poor fellow
with the broken. ragged stock.
At noon Hewitt. Gillis andCornwall
had been admitted to bail in the sum
of 500 each. but Conley still fingered
in durance vile.

FORT STREET IMPROVEMENTS
ABANDONED.
The Minister of the Interior Will Re
quest the Next Legislature for an
Appropriation to Finish the Work.

1t was announced at the Interior
Department that the matter of Fort
street improvements will necessarily
have to lie over until the next session
of the Legislature.
The appropriation made to carry
out the widening of this street has
been exhausted and the Minister of
the Interior will request more funds.
Two sections of Fort street, from
King to Hotel, and from Hotel to
Beretania streets, are not as wide as
the regulation thoroughfares. The
department has accomplished consid
cradle already in the way of satisfy
ing the claims of those people whose
property was affected by the widening
of the street. Land has been given in
exchange for the road damages where
ever possible.
On the Eva side of Fort street, be-
tween King and Hotel. every claim
has been settled save that of the Odd
Fellows Society, which owns the
brick building on the corner. James
Campbell has erected his new block
back on the new street line. The
Wichman building and Tregloan
block were originally built on the
proper line.
On the Waikiki side of the streets,
the Government has yet to satisfy the
claims of the owners of the Mcintyre
building, the block in which Jordan's
store is located and the May building.
From Egan's store to the corner of
Hotel street the street line is now
properly adjusted.
Between Hotel and Beretania streets
the Mott-Smith building on the Wal
kiki side, has been set back to the
new line. The claims of Mr.. Fisher,
who owns the property where Pop
pleton's bakery is located, and the
Clark property have been satisfied.
The building in which are located the
Criterion saloon, Criterion barber
shop, Wright's blacksmith establish
ment, the Catholic cathedral and the
Bishop estate, has yet to be adjusted
on this side of the street.
On the Eva side the Pantheon sa-
loon premises and Widemann prop
erty must yet be attended to.
The Government has affected a
compromise with the Cartwright and
Douglas properties.

Commissioner Hawes departed from
Honolulu on the Kinau sailing on July
9th. He was on tour of Hawaii and
Maui and more particularly the coffee
plantations in Kona and Puma on the
big island.
On the trip to Hilo, Commissioner
Hawes was badly bruised up as a re-
suit of fall in the captains cabin of
the boat. There was a rough choppy
sea on and the Kinau rolled and
pitched violently. On this occasion
the Commissioner narrowly escaped
being thrown overheard but was
saved by the timely assistance of Ad-
miral Beardslee.
Upon arrival at Hilo Commissioner
Hawes was compelled to lie in bed
until his bruises healed. He was
taken to Waiakea, where he was at
the time of his death.
Very soon after his confinement at
Waiakea bad case of carbuncle
broke out on his neck. 1t gave him

condition, and the last report previous
to that of his demise stated that while
he was not recovering as fast as his
! friends would like to note, still he
was surely on the mend. He had
been in less pain than for several days
past.
Vice Consul Walker took passage on
| the Kinau last week for Hilo. Miss
Elise Gay, to whom Commissioner
Hawes was engaged to be married in
| September, and her brother, Charles
Gay, arrived from Kauai in time to
board this boat.
Since his confinement the Commits
sioner has been very tenderly cared
| for by Mrs. George and Mrs. McGregor
Deacon of Pepeekeeo.
Mr.. Hawes was born in England
over fifty years ago. He entered the
Royal Marines in December of 1859
and retired ten years later
In 1871 Mr.. llawes was appointed
by the japanese Government to or
ganize the marine force Of their navy,
and for thirteen years he took charge
of this department, and to his eX-
cellent work is due the efficiency of
Japanese marine corps at the present
time. During his stay in Japan Mr..
Hawes was very prominent in society
of Toxic and his parties attained
much celebrity, especially was he
famed for his 'rose festival" when
his gardens blossomed with the gor-
geous blooms, which had been foster
ed and some times retarded in order
that all should blaze forth on the day.
The "rose festival was a feature of
Toxic society.

THE BIG BAND CONCERT.

The attendance at the band concert
at the Hawaiian Hotel last evening
was quite large. The amalgamation
of the Philadelphia and Hawaiian
bands made over forty pieces under
one organization.
The music was in perfect harmony.
Bandmaster Grosskurtz of the Navy
led the first part. Ivansvici's Danube
Waves and the Sweet Old Songs were
warmly applauded. In the second
part led by Bandmaster Berger,
Sousa's International Congress was
executed.

DEMOCRATIC STRONGHOLD.
New York Lost IrreyOcably to tn,
Republicans.

In reviewing the election editor.
tally, the New York Evening Post
says:
"Platt has saved his organization
at the most stupendous price ever
paid by political leader. He has
turned over Greater New York,
with its enormous patronage, a
salary list Of half million dollars
and S75, 000,0 Of annual cxpen.
dlture to the Democratic party for
four years; he has lost the State
irrevocably, converting plurality
of 9GS, 600 for Mckinley and one
of $4,000 for Black into a Demo
cratic plurality of $4,000. He has
nearly, if not quite, lost control of
the Assembly, and hence of the
Legislature. What prospect is
there. in view Of these results, that
the Republicans can elect a Gov
ernOr next year; or carry the State
for a Repu blican candidate for the
Presidency in 1900? Greater New
York, with its $500. 600 of people
and its 597, 600 voters, will hence
forth be the most tremendous
Democratic stronghold this or any
other State has ever seen. To sc
cure this invaluable Democratic adj
vantage, the Republican boss jam
med the new charter through the
Legislature and then 'jammed' the
enlarged city INTO the possession of
rammany Hall, by running Tracy
for Mnyor-'to save the organizn-

We have often noticed references
made IN print and oral statement
to the effect that the word "mule"
did not appear in the Bible and
that such an animal was not recog-
nlzcd by the Scriptures. This is a
common error, as anyone can ascer
tam by consulting the 9th verse of
the 32nd Psalms, which reads as
follows:

the mule, which have no under.
standing; whose mouth must be
held IN with bit and bride, lest
