HR BOLD BURGLARY PNS CHANGED POLICY ON COFFEE PLANTATIONS NAS MANAGER RESIGNS
IWAKAMA'S STORE ENTERED AND
LOOTED OF $3.50.
Two Men Engaged in the Crime-One
of the Burglars Supposed to be
Japanese-No Arrests as Yet.

Another daring burglary is report
ed. The store OF lwakaml on
Hotel street was entered about :
o'clock this morning and robbed of IA
neat little sum. The firm is out just
$3.50 in hard cash
Two men committed the crime. The
pair entered the premises from the
grounds of the Mechanics Home, by
climbing a small building rooted with
sheet iron. Upon this roof are the
traces of narrow, sharp pointed No.
shoe.
The men then went to the shutter,
which is covered with sheet iron, and
with a sharp instrument opened a
way to the latch, which was then
raised and the window opened. This
admitted the men into the store. On
the shelf at the window was left the
imprint of a rubber shoe, disclosing
the existence of a second man in the
burglary.
From this point to the Office of the
cashier is but few steps. The burg
lars went there, opened the two little
drawers in which money was kept, alb
stracted everything of value and left
that which they had no use for. \
purse in which was some trinlets was
left undsturbed. Twenty cents in ia
panese money and some spurious coin
were also left in the drawer.
In the lot of money taken was 500
in Peruvian bills. which furnishes the
police, together with the footprints
mentioned. a slight clue to work upon
The remainder of the cash was in gold
and silver coin which could not pos
sibly be identified.
At the time of the burglary, and in
fact all night, two bright lights burn
ed in the building and there were no
shades over the windows. Anyone
passing along the street in front could
easily have seen the bold mscreants
About O'Clock in the morning a man
in the lodging house above heard a
noise in the store beneath his room
He listened for a time, but all soon
became quiet and he dismissed his
apprehensions from his mind.
The proprietors of the store believe
the robbery to have been haole
trick. Others, however. have the opin-
ion. on account of the small shoe
print, that at least one of the burg
lars was japanese. Detective Kaapa
suspects certain party. but as vet
has no evidence to work upon.

MATSUMURA SAYS OFFICIALS
WILL BE CONCILIATORY.
Russia and Japan are Bound to Go to
War Shortly-The Siberian Raj
road Regarded as "A War Scheme.

). Matsumura, manager for Og-
ura d Co., returned by the Riojun-
Maru, after a visit of thirty days to
his home in the land of the chrysan-
themum. He brings an interesting
story of the Japanese situation. The
Mikado's government, says Mr.. Mat
sumura, has abandoned its position
with respect to Hawaii as being bad
policy. 1t is desired above all things
at present to have the friendship and
sympathy of the United States and
Japan has seen that to press the Ha-
waiian matter would be to force an is
sue with America which could not at
present he endured.
Mr. Matsumura believes that ia
pans future policy with respect to
Hawaii will be conciliatory in the eX-
treme. Officials and civilians concur
in this plan. So far as the muddle is
concerned, Japan is ready to treat
with this government on almost its
own terms, and will ultimately con-
sent to any fair result if it will en-
sure amity and good feeling between
the two countries.
"There is more than one reason for
all this" continued Mr.. Matsumura.
I'VE are going to war with Russia.
This is as certain as the sun rises and
sets. Russia is preparing for it now.
The Siberian railway is war enter
prise, pure and simple. Japan is at
the other end of that railroad Rus.
sia is depressing us in Korea and en-
croaching on the mainland of Asia.
Japan has not been Indifferent to
these things. Our new warships were
built to meet the Siberian railway ia
cilities of Russia and the immense
army the Bear is ostensibly massing
against MS. Understand, however. we
we are not seeking war. Japan is be-
ing forced into it, You know we are
a proud nation and will not back very
far. Russia has already pressed us
as far back as we can go.
In view of this impending struggle
the people of Japan desire to be at
peace with all nations. however small
they may be. The friendship of Ha-
wall is esteemed highly. and behind
that we look to the United States as
y great power with whom cordial re-
latiorS must be maintained at all
reasonable hazards

KAIULA\IS VISIT.

\ close friend of the Princess Kai-
ulani, who has received IA letter from
her by the last mail, states that the
young lady will remain but a few
days only in Honolulu, when she win
leave again for an extensive tour of
Europe. She has requested in adj
vance that no entertainment nor any
demonstration be arranged in her
honor, and will decline absolutely to
take any part in or even discuss poll
ties. The Princess denies any intcn-
ton of visiting or comforting with Ii
liuokalani, and, from a guarded Init
nation, would seem to desire to give
out the impression that she is not in
sympathy with the eX-Queen's cause.

any opinion further than he was fully
satisfied that coffee would grow in
the four districts he had visited.
"The regulations of the Department
of State" continued Mr.. Haywood.

thing that ! might send for the rea-
son that the department wishes to

fee will be as concise as possible. and

partment."

BICYCLE MERRY GO ROUND.
Mr.. Desky Secures Another Novelty
for Cyclomere.

c. 5. Deslly has secured another nov
city for Cyclomere in the shape of a
bicycle merry -go-romd, which is now
in course of erection at the park, The
machine is designed especially for
the amusement of the children, but IT
will doubtless prove a novelty to some
of the older folks as well. The neces-
sary machinery has already arrived
from the coast, and will be in place
probably by tomorrow afternoon.
The bicycle merrygo-rouud differs
from the old fashioned arrangement
in two material points First the
seats for riders are bicycles instead of
rocking horses, and second the motive
power is supplied by the riders. and
not by steam or horse power. Sixteen
riders may mount at one time, and it
depends largely upon their own ef-
forts whether they ride fast or slow.
Each rider is supplied with a wand.
and as he wheels past given point
has a chance TO strike an electric
button. Those who are fortunate
enough to strike the button and 10
sound the bell get another ride free
of charge.
