GOUDIE BROS. PLANTATION Is \
RECORD BREAKER.
Will Yield Two Thousand Pounds to
Trees-Miss Wilder's Fine Crop.

Very encouraging reports come
from Hawaii in regard to the coffee
pickings. The returns are especially
large in Puma, where, although the
older trees have just entered their
fourth year, the production has been
larger than expected even by the
most sanguine.
On Goudie Brothers plantation the
first picking, not yet completed, is av-
eraging from 125 to $50 bags of
cherry" to the acre. The first pick
ing is, of course, the lightest, and if
the other three pickings come up to
the standard, and they give every
promise, the thirty acres of trees now
bearing will yield an average of from
1900 to 1000 pounds of dried coffee to
the acre. This Is a record breaker,
as the trees are only three years old,
and no returns are usually expected
from trees under four years of age.
The plantation as it stands at pres
ent represents an investment of some
thing like $4,000. AS the coffee is of
the finest grade, it ought to net the
growers about $1,000.
Miss Lta Wilder's place in the same
district, has yielded 750 pounds of
cherry to the acre on the first picking,
and will undoubtedly give 200 pounds
of dried coffee to the acre by the end
of the season. She has but five ac-
res of producing trees, and they are
only 25 months old. Her coffee is
probably the finest on the Island. She
is putting in a pulping mill on her
place, of sufficient capacity to take
care of all the coffee produced within
a radius of five miles for some years
to come.

will take heavy crop off his place
this year. The only other plantations
that will bear in Puma this year are

Building Monday Evening.

The President will give a public re-
ception in honor of Senator John T..
Morgan of Alabama at the Executive
building, next Monday evening. I'm
mediately following the reception
there will be dancing.
The announcement of the reception

Presidents staff will receive the
guests and care for the entertain
ment.
Major Curtis p. Iaukea will be in
charge of the dancing and Captain
George Ashley will superintend the
decorations.
The full government band will be
on hand to render the dame music.
The announcement of the Presi-

That the people shoul greet Sen
ator Morgan on the eve of his de-

\ BIG CROWD WITNESSES HER
DEPARTURE.
Government Band Serenades the OFF,
cers-Four Cruisers to be Stationed
at This Port.

The big United States cruiser Phi
ladelphia sailed for San Francisco
soon after o'clock this morning. Al
though the hour was early, large
crowd of people were on the docks to
wave adieu to those on board the war
ship. Professor Berger and the Gov
ernment band took up their station
on the Pacific Mail dock soon after 6
o'clock, and as soon as the Philadel-
phia commenced to haul anchor, the
band struck up lively air, rendering
piece after piece, until the cruiser
had started well on her way.
1t was gala occasion. The Phila-
delphia has been so long in the har-
Dor, and her officers have made so
many friends ashore that it was like
parting with an old friend to see her
go. The boat house balconies were
crowded with the fair sex and their
escorts, presenting gay scene. Most
of the officers were glad to get away,
as they have been absent from home
for an unusually long time, but they
were loath to leave their newly made
friends behind. But in the navy there
is no alternative but to obey orders,
and so the Philadelphia sailed.
Once her anchor was up, the Phila-
delphia backed slowly into the stream
The "homeward bound pennant" was
then flung to the breeze from the miz-
zen. 1t was long one-longer than
the vessel and streamed so far astern
that it dragged in the water. At the
same time the Admiral's band, station
ed on the forward deck, struck up
"Aloha Oe." With both bands playing,
flags flying and handkerchiefs flutter
ing in the breeze. the Philadelphia
headed into the channel, and started
on her long voyage. Without the aid
of a pilot she made a very pretty tour
through the channel and was soon
headed on her homeward course.
An officer of the Philadelphia told
a friend last night that the Baltimore
would probably be here in about six
weeks time. He had heard, he said
that the Yorktown had been ordered
to this station, and will remain here
until the annexation treaty is passed
According to the officers story, the
Bennington and Wheeling would also
remain here during the same period
so that when annexation takes place
Admiral Miller will be on the ground
| with four cruisers at his command

THE HOTEL NATTER.

A slight inaccuracy appeared i'll the
interview with Colonel Macfarlane in
last evenings issue, on Hotel matters,
wherein he was quoted as saying that
he understood that both Mr.. Desky
and Mr.. Irwin made propositions to
his brother, E. C. Macfarlane, to build
a hotel here, whereas it was Mr.. Des-
ky only that made a proposition, but
it was in connection with leasing and
building on Mr.. Irwin's property back
of the Opera House and lately 'acquir-
ed from the Gibson estate. 1t appears
from f. G. Macfarlane's statement to-
day, that Mr.. Irwin refused to put up
any hotel building at all on the prem
ises, at his own risk

WAS QUEEN EMMA HEIR TO HER
son?
If the Courts Decide in the Negative
the Queens Hospital Association
Loses Its Legacy.

An exceedingly interesting point
has been raised for the courts of Ha
waii to determine in the important
suit brought in the Circuit Court by
Colonel Cresswell Keane Charles Rookie
against the Queens Hospital Associa
ton and the trustees of the Bernice
Pauahi Bishop estate.
1t is whether Queen Emma owned
the property in fee simple left by DR..
Thomas Charles Byde Rookie, her
adopted father, or whether she simply
held life interest in the property.
DR.. Rockies will provided that the
property of his estate should go to
Queen Emma were she to die with
out issue, then the property was to
go to Colonel Rookie, nephew of DR..
Rookie and Bernice Bishop.
On May 20, 1858, Queen Emma gave
birth to a son. The little prince of
| Hawaii lived until August 81 of the
year 1862, both his parents surviving
him. A year later Kamehameha ",
died. His widow Queen Emma sur
vived him and never remarked. She
died in 1885, without other issue.
In her will she turned her entire es-
tate over to the Queens Hospital AS
sociation and the land is held by the
Association today.
Now Colonel Rookie as well as the
trustees of the B. p. Bishop estate in
sist that she had no right to do this,
as she had but life interest in the
/ property. But the trustees of the
Hospital contend that at the birth of
the prince the property all went to
him and at his death his mother was
heir. to the immense interests. They
argue that Queen Emma's life interest
in the property ceased when the lit
tie prince was born and that she be-
came possessor of it at his death.
Colonel Rookie, who is a retired Eng
lish army officer, having seen many
years of active service in India, as
well as the trustees of the B. p. Bish-
op estate, have shown disposition to
compromise the matter, but such an
action would be embarrassing to the
trustees of the Hospital Association,
as their duty obliges them to hold
on to the property entrusted to their
care. Therefore, Colonel Rookie has
taken the controversy to- the courts
to determine to whom the property
really belongs. 1t cannot be said that
the suit is an unfriendly one, as all
three parties interested are anxious
to have the cloud removed from the
title of the land.
Acting British Consul General
Thomas Rain Walker and F. NJ. Swan
zy are attorneys in fact for Colonel
Rookie, who resides in England. These
gentlemen are not interested in the
case one way or the other, but simp.
" have filed the suit in the Circuit
Court.
The property involved in the suit
is given in the schedule appended to
the petition as follows:
The French hotel premises, contain
ing S6-100 of an acre.
Queen Emma residence, containing
5-100 acres.
Land at Honual<aha. Honolulu.
Land at Niolopa in Nuuanu valley
\ containing 8 $1,000 acres.

Question Before Hawaiian Meeting
Says Morgan Puts Men to Sleep.
The Luso of October 2nd has the fol-
lowing lucubration upon Senator Nor
gan's address, in which it tries vainly
to be sarcastic and telling. 1t says:
Notwithstanding the expectations
of many persons, who, like us, do not
wish to decide without seeing or
hearing, and contrary to the impress
sion which we had expected that the
protection or discourse of Mr.. Nor
gan, Senator from Alabama, would
cause; certainly that gentleman fail
ed To convince the greater part of his
hearers day before yesterday, because
instead of replying honestly, as he
ought to have done, to the questions
which had been put to him, he barely
touched upon the past history of Ha-
wall, and like genuine Yankee prais-
ed the greatness and generosity of his
own country towards Hawaii (Which
we do not doubt and we already know
a good deal abouD, but did not fulfil
what he ought on other important
subjects.
Mr.. Morgan's statement that the
Hawaiians after annexation will be
treated as we'll as the negroes of Ala
bama, goes without saying. The
truth is self evident, and that they
will be American citizens also we al
ready know, but what we want to
know of Senator Morgan, authorita-
lively or omcially. is in what political
position will the foreign residents be,
including about 1000 Portuguese vot-
ers, in case annexation should take
place. This he did not take the troub-
lie to elucidate.
"We do not blame Mr.. Morgan for
carrying out the mission which was
entrusted to him in the manner in
which he is proceeding.
IAN advocate when he does not ex-
pect to gain the case which he de-
fends, endeavors at least to lull to
sleep the jury or the Judge. as already
Mr.. Morgan has succeeded in the Sen.
ate by making his colleagues retire OF
by putting them to sleep"
