Strong FOR Annexation
JAMES HOGG OF SPERRY FLOUR
MILL TALKS.
Friendly Feeling of California Busi-
ness Men Towards Hawaii-It Out
weighs the Beet Sugar Interest.

James Hogg, of the big Sperry Flour
mills of Stockton, Cal, is staying at
the Hawaiian Hotel with his family.
Mr.. Hogg is not enjoying the best of
health and he has come to Honolulu
to recuperate. They plan to return
on the Gaelic, sailing on the goth.
Mr.. Hogg has his offices in San Fran
cisco. He thoroughly believes that
the United States should either an
mex the Hawaiian islands or else es-
tablish a protectorate over them. II
would not like to see some other coun-
try step in and form an alliance with
these islands," continued Mr. Hogg,
"and from what / can learn it would
not be the INST acceptable thing to the
progressive people here.
81 am sure that the general feeling
in San Francisco and along the Pa
cific Coast is extremely favorable to
the islands in this respect. In Cali
fornia the friendly feeling for Hawaii
completely overshadows the sentiment
of the beet sugar men against either
the retention of the present treaty or
the absorption of the islands.
"Not long ago | was in possession
of one of the largest petitions sent
from San Francisco asking Congress
not to interfere with the Hawaiian
treaty. The signers were among the
representative men of the city and
State. Mayor Phelan and the San
Francisco Chamber of Commerce
stands solid for Hawaii on the treaty
question. While / have the greatest
faith in Senator Perkins, and believe
him to be man who will follow his
own judgment, it appears to me that
his recent letter to Mayor Phelan was
very weak. He is evidently undecid-
ed what to do, and it would have been
| far better had he withheld his corr
respondence until he had reached
some conclusions. A great many peo-
pie believe Senator Perkins will act
favorably to Hawaii, after ALL

COMMITTEE 5 AMENDMENT
TWO-THIRDS OF REGULAR DUTY
FOR HAWAIIAN SUGARS.
Senator Aldrich's Proposed Change
A Years Notice to Be Given from
Date That Amendment Passes.

At almost the very last moment
gic from San Francisco, a private
telegram came from Washington out
lining the plans of the tariff commit
tee in regard to the proposed amend
ment to the Hawaiian treaty.
The scheme of the committee, of
which Senator Aldrich is chairman, in
its efforts to bring about modifica-
ton of the existing treaty between the
United States and Hawaii, will call
for the payment of two-thirds of the
regular duty on all Hawaiian sugars
shipped to the United States ports.
In order to release the United States
from any chance of embarrassment of
becoming party to a dishonorable ac-
ton, the committee proposes to recon-
mend to the Senate that the customs
authorities be instructed not to col
lect the duty on Hawaiian sugars un-
til one year after the adoption of the
amendment. This, the committee con-
tend, according to the telegram, will
virtually serve as one years notice, as
provided for by the terms of the
treaty for it's abrogation.
This telegram gives merely the plans
as decided upon by the tariff commit
tee up to little more than one week
ago when the Belgic sailed.
By the Alameda the news was re-
ceived that Senator Aldrich during
the tariff debate on May 25. said that
his committee would prepare and pre-
sent an amendment to the House pro-
visions in regard to the Hawaiian
treaty, which would call for negotia-
tions between the Government of the
United States and Hawaiian islands
looking forward for a modification of
the treaty. Senator Aldrich stated at
that time that the aim of the commit
tee would be to reduce the bounty to
be paid Hawaiian sugar producers to
reasonable sum. He also promised
to present an amendment looking in
that direction at very early day.
The sugar schedule was on the cal
ender to be taken up last Wednesday
or Thursday, and it is quite likely that
the proposed amendment has been
sprung by the committee ere this, pro-
viding the Senate has taken up the
sugar schedule.

JAP WOMAN'S SUICIDE.
Dead Body Found Floating In the Bay
This Morning.

The body of Hosaka Yukow, wife of
Matsumoto, bee keeper of the Puma
hou beehives, was found floating in
the harbor off the fish market wharf
early this morning. Patrolman Puahi
reported the matter and some ''trust-
les" from the city prison removed the
body to the morgue. Marshal Brown
held an inquest this forenoon, and the
verdict of the jury was that the wom-
an had committed suicide.
Matsumoto testified that his wife
had been i'll for many months, and, as
the doctors had not been able to do
her any good, had become respondent.
Last Wednesday she disappeared from
home. Her husband hunted for her
for two or three days. He suspected
that she had made away with herself,
but knew not where or how, until he
saw her dead body in the morgue this
morning.
Deceased was a respectable Japan
ese woman of middle age, who had re-
sided in Honolulu for some years.

No subject in connection with dairy
ing is receiving more attention. or is ap-
parently more needful of same, than that
of the harmful bacteria and disease
creating germs existing in milk or capa-
BILE of development in it. This is espec-
tally true of the tuberculin or consump-
tive germs, the appallingly dangerous
Importance of which is rapidly becom-
ing more generally apparent.
1t is found that the centrifugal separ-
ator, and particularly the "Alpha" milk
dividing disc system now used in the
DE LAVAL machine, gathers and holds
in the bowl of the separator practically
all the filth, fibrous and feculent matters
contained in the milk, including the
bacteria germs, and it is certain that
this feature in the "Atpha" dies is of
the most Importance.
The CUMMING BIRD" or No. 0, the
smallest of the De Laval Cream Separa-
tors, possesses all the advantages of the
larger styles of the "Alpha" machines,
and is designed for popular household
and small dairy use, from the family
buying its milk and wishing to turn
part of it into cream or butter as want
ed, to the private family or farmer hav-
ing less than to cows. It's capacity
is 175 pounds.
A larger size is the IMPROVED
"BABY" No. 2, intended for diaries of
from to 10 or 20 cows; and often used
in larger ones. It's capacity is $50
pounds.
Amongst the many advantages to be
derived from the use of the De Laval
Separator are: Betterment of quality,
saving from 20 to 80 per cent, of cream
saving of skim milk and saving of time,
labor and plant.
We are disposing of these at a consid-
cradle reduction on former prices, SO as
to place every dairy farmer in a posit-
ion to possess one.
We have also CYLINDER CHURNS
in four sizes, from $3.50 upwards.

Mr.. Isaac Upham, the Saa Francisco

BALDWIN HOME BANDBOYS
AN APPEAL FOR THE YOUTHFUL
KALAWAO MUSICIANS.
Uniforms Needed for the Musicians at
the Baldwin Home-Subscription
Well Started-Put Your Name Down

At the Baldwin Home for Boys, To-
Gated in the little village of Kalawao,
on the Molokai settlement, is a we'll
organized band. Another well regu-
lated musical organization has head
quarters at Kalaupapa, only few
miles distant. The Kalaupapa band
boys have neat uniforms, which were
spilled them by the Honolulu people,
whose subscriptions were kindly So
licited through the newspapers.
The Kalawao band boys have no uni
forms, and this fact greatly discour-
ages them, because of the rivalry that
exists between the two bands. When
the Board of Health made its regular
semi-annual visit to Molokai last
month, President Smith informed the
Kalawao boys that uniforms would
soon be forthcoming for them, as the
newspapers had consented to raise the
necessary amount by subscriptions.
The Star is in receipt of a letter
from Brother Joseph Dutton, who is
in charge of the Baldwin Home, in
which he says that there are sixteen
instruments, though one is not in use
just now, it probably will be eventu-
ally. There are sixteen members in
the first class. and sixteen more in the
second class.
Brother Dutton states that there
might be one regular set of uniforms
for the first sixteen, but this may be
governed by the amount of money
raised. If a sufficient amount could
be raised to purchase sixteen black or
blue suits, the surplus, should there
be any, could be expended in mate
rial for white suits and they could be
made up at the settlement by the boys.
The Kalawao boys say that thirtv-two
dark suits made up in Honolulu would
please them best.
The entire expense will come inside
of 5000 The Star opens the subscrip-
ton list today, which will be publish
ed from day to day. Those desiring
to contribute to the fund will please
