Timely Topics.
Honolulu, Dec. 81, 1926.

Under the present conditions
of our Streets, a reference to
viscous and oleaginous matters
seems quite a timely topic.
But we don't care so much
about our streets now as we do
about the commencement of the
grinding season, when every
plantation on the Islands is an
xious to again learn that we are,
as we have been for years past,
ready to supply them from our
stock in hand of our celebrated.
COLORADO AID C0ROnADO.
brands of oils and lubricants for
their engines, cylinders, ma
chinery, dynamos and every
thing that requires oil or lubri.
cants of any kind.
These brands are familiar to
all plantation managers and
others handling machinery, for
their very high grade and abso-
Lutte freedom from any deleter-
ious matter.
This year. they are purer and
of a higher grade than ever,
and yet the price is lower. They
are of different grades and des-
criptions adaptable for all cir
cumstances.
All you have to do is to write
to us informing us of the kind
Of machinery for which they
are required, and we will select
the proper oil and lubricant for
you, and guarantee to give the
same satisfaction, if not better,
as we have invariably given in
this line of goods.

A PERFECT CONTAINER.

We have this season imported,
a long felt want in the shape Of
a special container for Colorado
and Coronado oil. 1t holds 60
gallons, and is a very handsome
and highly decorated piece of
hardware.
With its use there can be no
danger, or any possible leakage
or waste.

1t is this kind OF writing that
gives the Attorney. General that tired
feeling that finds expression in the
wish that he might WELD police

The writer then goes on, to say:
st is well-known to Japan that the
autonomy of the Hawaiian Islands
is formally guaranteed by treaty
between the United States, Great
Britain and France and that this
country GU. 81 has long since includ-
ed the islands within the jurisdic-
tional sphere of the Monroe doc
trine." The writer is a little off
from the facts when he states that
the United States was a party to the
treaty signed by England aud
France; but the correspondence be-
tween the countries named in the
said treaty doubtless committed the
United States to the support of the
autonomy OF Hawaii That the
United States has long since includ-
ed Hawaii within the "jurisdictional
sphere of the Monroe doctrine" is
one of those statements that sound
well to the ear OF the jingo, but is
as empty of meaning to the sound
thinker as the chattering OF an ape.
While it is true that England has
consented to the stretching OF the
Monroe doctrine to cover Venezuela
IL does not by any means follow that

JAPAN ANo HAWAII.

1t is well understood in San Fran
cisco that the Chronicle of that city
is the organ OF Mr. Mckinley; that
its utterauces have a quasi-official
character. With this fact in mind
the article in that paper Of the 26th
December last, headed "Japan and
Hawaii" has more than a passing
interest for Hawaiians. The writer
of the article, says: "While Japan
has between 10000 and 10000 sub
jects domiciled in Hawaii, the report
that she is meditating coup which
has for its object the acquisition of
the group, may be taken cum graao
SAILS" The writer could not have
known the sensational report allud-
ed to emanated from the Hawaiian
Legation at Washington, and was
intended to fire the jingo element in
America to the end that the annex
alton OF Hawaii to the United States
might be hastened. Yes, the reader
in America may take all the reports
from Messrs Hatch and Hastings
with a very large grain of salt.

Inmates of COUNTY Jail Display Interest
in the Luetgert Case.
CHICAGO, Oct. 2O.-The 500 prisoners
in the county Jail evinced much the
same spirit of restlessness during the
morning that is noticeable on the morn
ings of the days when executions occur
in the Jail. They were nervous and
demonstrative. Crowds Of morbid
minded people, who assembled on Dear.
born avenue as early as 8 o'clock and
gazed up at the grated windows Of the
Jail, seemed to excite the inmates. Yells
and boots greeted the crowd, and the
Jail corridors rang with shouts, among
which was easily distinguishable the
words, chang up Setback" This out
break referred to Inspector Setback,
who had charge Of the police end Of
the prosecution of LuetRert.

a conversation which Prince Bismarck
is said to have had with a recent visitor
during the course of which the ex.chan.
cellor is quoted as saying that the Mon
roe doctrine is ''uncommon insolence
towards the rest of the world and does
violence to the other American and
European states with American inter-
ests." Continuing, Prince Bismarck is
reported to have remarked: 'Their
great wealth, due to the soil of Amer.
lea, has led the American legislators to
overestimate their own rights and un-
derestimate the rights of the other
American and European states"

Town Of New Haven VIII Bring Suit
Against ths College for 100000.
NEW HAVEN, Conn.,. Oct. 2O.-There
is good authority for the statement that
a suit for about $500, 600 Is to be brought
against Yale college during the month
of November by the town of New
Haven for the collection Of taxes. 1t
has been rumored for some time that
the matter would be subjected to arbi.
tration, but it is now understood that
both parties intend to fight it out, and
the matter will probably come up before
the superior court during the succeed
ing month.

That Number of Deaths From Yellow
Fever in New Orleans.
New ORLEANS, Oct. 20.-Before 2
o'clock p. m. the 100-mark of deaths
during the present period of yellow
fever prevalence had been reached.
When the board Of health closed it's
books the night before there had been
50 fatal cases. During the day seven
deaths We're reported. This 100 deaths
has occurred among less than 900 cases
that have been reported to the board
since early in September when the first
case made its appearance in New Or.
leans. The days record was by no
means reassuring The new cases had
reached 81 and the deaths had reached
seven and heretofore the greatest mum.
Der of deaths on a single day has been
nine. The quarantine system is still
in effect but it does not seem to re.
strain the spread of the infection and
the opinion seems to be borne out that
yellow fever is not at all contagious
but atmospherically infectious. One
case of yellow fever at Baton Bouge,
the capital of the state, was reported
during the day.

Inhabitants Of a Cuban Town Fear an At

MATANZAs, Oct. 20.-The city Of Ba-
yamo, one of the most important in the
province of Santiago de Cuba, has been
abandoned recently, its inhabitants
moving as a rule to Veguitas, fearing q
repetition at Bayamo of the ~insurgent
raid on Victoria de las Tunas.
It is said here that some very warm
SABLE messages were exchanged be-
tween General Weyler and members Of
the Skgasta cabinet during the first
days in Office of that ministry. The re-
cent release Of large numbers of polit-
ical prisoners from different penal set
Elements was due to disgust experienced
in certain Spanish circles here at the
extreme severity exercised toward
them, but it is not believed that the
Spanish government intends to grant
general amnesty.

an effort would be made to lynch him
had he remained in Fond du Lac, and
ever his removal here does not fully

claim to apprehend that a mob may
come up from Fond du Lac and en-.
deavor to execute the murderer. Ad-

here, has ordered Companies H and F

Luetgert Jury Out So Long
That Disagreement Seems
Almost Certain.
Is Said to Now Stand Eight
for Conviction and Four
for Acquittal.
Only Break to the MOnOtOnOus
Wait Was a Kick for
Better Food.

CHICAGO, Oct. 2O.-The jury in the
Luetgert case will probably disagree.
After being out 30 hours the probable
tiles of reaching a verdict are not
bright. The greatest interest is shown
in the case and thousands of people are
waiting around the criminal court
building to hear the result. The mo-
notony of the weary waiting for the
verdict was broken at noon by the ar
rival at the courtroom of Judge Tut.
jill. He had been sent for by States
Attorney Deneen. The state s attorney
said that several of the jurors were
complaining about the breakfast that
had been served them and to see if
the judge could not guarantee
better dinners. The judge did
not call the court to order but retired
to his private room where he had a con.
sultation with Judge Vincent and the
states attorney. The consultation in
the judges room lasted some time. At
its conclusion MI. Deneen Nid it had
been agreed to adjourn for several
hours. Bailif Conner, it was under
stood, brought to the judge the infor-
nation that the jury had not agreed
and that there were no prospects Of I
verdict for some time. Some Of the
jurors complained Of the food that was
sent them in the morning. Judge Tut.
mill remarked that under the old laws
jurors had to be satisfied with bread
and water but he directed that a good
substantial dinner be served them. He
said if they did not agree during the
afternoon he would keep them out all
night again.
Said Eight Are For Conviction.
At 1880 o'clock States Attorney De-
neen informed the Associated Press
that the latest and best information he
had on the attitude of the jury was
that eight stood for conviction and the
infection of the death penalty, and that
four were holding out for acquittal.
The jurors, in addition to a special
dinner order, asked Judge Tuthill,
through the bailiff, if he would not al
low them a box of cigars. The judge
studied a moment or two and then
good naturally ordered that the weeds
be sent in along with the dinner.
Several Of the jurors were so over.
come with fatigue by noon that they
could scarcely keep their eyes open.
They complained Of the cramped con.
dition of the little jury room. 1t was
intimated to the court that if they
could be allowed more ample quarters
and a little rest after dinner they would
feel more like discussing their verdict.
Judge Tuthill decided to do everything
in his power to accommodate the IL
men and ordered a dozen cots SEM over
to the criminal court from the Revere
House opposite. It wa also decided to
permit the jurors to remove their cloth
ing and get a few hours sleep and rest
after which it was believed they would
all be in a better condition and frame
of mind to reach a conclusion on the
evidence.
