PAIGE HAD THE FEVER
Wanted to Go to KIondike at
Other Peoples Expense.
STOLE A DOUBLE HARNESS
The Officers Found 1t Hidden in q False
Cellar Under His House His Son
Arrested. But He Has Not
Been Captured

Had not T. !. Paige Of No. 9o9 South
Main street, needed a set of double
harness in his business he might posi-
bly, have got started for the klondike,
proVisioned and outiitted at other pco-
Pies expense. but he had. or thought he
had to have a set of double harness
and now he is in a fair way, If he hap
pens 70 he caught, 10 go 10 Deer Lodge
instead of the klondikc.
Paige is a teamster and hitherto has
not been suspected of wrong doing. and
perhaps would not now had he not been
attacked with Klondike fever i'm vru-
lent form. The first suspicion that at
tached to him was two days ago. when
valuable set Of double harness was
stolen from the barn of G. a. Dillet OF
No. 115 South Main street. Dillet and
his man followed a track which led
from Dillet's barn to an old unoccupied
building opposite Paige's home. There
they found part of the harness, and
coming up town they complained to
Chief Mulholland. who detailed an Off
Ger to accompany the gentlemen to the
place and recovered the part of the
harness found in the outhuilding. De-
tective Murphy was along, and as
Paige was suspected. attempted to
question Paige's 10 or 11-year-old son.
who returned some rather impairment
answers and was accordingly sent to
the city Jail
The search appeared to have dropped
there. but Dillet was not satisfied and
yesterday again asked the chief of po-
lice To let him have an officer TO make
another search. Officer James Leyden
was detailed and accompanied Dillet to
the Paige residence. They entered the
cellar but nothing was in sight to at
tract suspicion except partition
across one end which had the appear
ance of being the end of the cellar
boarded up. officer Leyden broke
through it and there found the rest of
Dillets harness, six full cases of eggs,
three whole dressed hogs, one mutton
and II boxes toilet soap. II was quite
evident the whole lot was stolen prop
erty and ii was confiscated and taken
to police headquarters. The police be
lieve the supplies aside from the har-
ness. We're stolen from box car on the
r.. A. e. =. railroad. but no owner has
yet been found. Mrs. Paige was at
home at the time, and made no protest
to the removal of the property.
Last evening a complaint charging
Paige with grand larceny was filed in
Justice Traps court and a warrant
issued for his arrest. The officers are
looking for him, but he left when his
boy was arrested and his capture is
problematical. The boy Is still in Jail

AN ISSUE OF vERAC|TY

Continued from Page One.l
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1898-10-26
HAS A HAWAIIAN License
WILL CARRY AMERICAN FLAG TO
TO COAST PORTS.
Steamer Mazama Leads off in the New
Maritime Era-In Local Trade for a
Year.

The little steamer Mazama, which
sailed from Honolulu Tuesday after
noon, is the first vessel to enter ac-
lively into the inter-island trade with
the American flag flying over her. She
carried the Stars and Stripes to
Kauai and will return with the same
ensign.
The license to coast was given to
the Mazama under an old regulation
which permits the Interior depart
to register foreign vessels under GER
tain circumstances to visit Laysen ISL
and for guano. The law is a bit broad
and by straining it, in view of the
present ANOMALOUS political situation,
the Mazama is brought in.
The steamer was given an ordinary
Hawaiian license to coast for the pc
riod of one year. Her crew, from the
captain to deck hands We're signed be-
fore Consul Haywood as American
seamen. Their papers are for six
months. The license of the steamer
contains the proviso, unless sooner
revoked" referring to its tenure.
One other vessel carrying the Ameri-
can flag has been given Hawaiian
coasting license under the same pro-
vision. 1t is the Concord. the little
schooner brought down from Seattle
a short time ago by Hughes and Har-
ris. OF course it is a mere matter of
time when all Hawaiian vessels will
be under the American flag, and this
old law has been used to advantage in
saving few small crafts from the
trouble and expense of registering
twice in few months.
Minister Sewall said some time ago
that he wanted to take the trip on the
Hawaiian vessel first carrying the
the American flag between Island
ports. To crafty this desire he sailed
by the Mazama Monday afternoon on
the cruise to Kilauea and other Kauai

FIRST NATIONAL BANK.
Inquiries Made Regarding Its Status
at Washington.

WASHINGTON, October 1.-THE
organization of the First National
Bank of Hawaii. Honolulu, of which
the Anglo-C Californian Bank of San
Francisco is large stakeholder, have
wired here to ascertain what further
steps are necessary to project the or
ganization of the bank. The inquiry
is based on the superstition that the
terms of annexation of the islands
having to await the action of Congress
the status of the government of Ha-
wall may be in doubt. The question
has oeen mooted not through any fear
as to an ultimate favorable decision,
but is rather prompted by natural pre-
cautions taken by men engaging in
vast business enterprises. In the alb
sence of Attorney General Griggs it
will be impossible to secure Il formal
opinion until next week, when he will
return to Washington. However, the
assistant attorney general and the So
licitor for the department of justice
have both passed informally upon the
question of government now in force
in Hawaii. 1t is held that territorial
powers of the United States are now
extended over the islands, and that
our federal laws are in full force and
effect. The solicitor of the depart
ment of justice further holds that ma
tive born Hawaiians can be directors
in the newly organized bank.

THE COLUMBIA.

The steamer Columbia, which has
been tied up here so long, will sail at
10 o'clock Friday morning for Seattle,
taking freight and passengers. Mr..
jacobsen, the managing director of
the line, who arrived by the Centen-
NAL, will put up bonds in the sum of
SIS, 200 against the suits now pending.
These matters will not be heard by the
Supreme Court until the January
term. Theo. II. Davies q Co. paid all
the bills of the steamer today.
