HAD THE WRONG DEFENDANT.
Mrs. Cohen's Suit Came to An Abrupt
End.

Mrs. Jennie Cohen was plaintiff in a
suit in trespass in Alderman Wright's
office, yesterday, in which A. Bonn and
Henry Bonn were named as defend
ants. 1t developed during the hearing
that it was Emil Bonn instead of A.
Bonn, his brother, who should be ar
raigned as co-defendapt and the dis
covery of this error caused postpone
ment for five days.
Mrs. Cohen is seeking to secure dam
ages because the Bonns, she alleges,
entered her house unlawfully and took
therefrom jewelry valued at $2S,
The defense is that the jewelry was
unlawfully in the possession of Mrs.
Cohen and that it was recovered with
a search warrant, served by Special
officer Tierney. The goods are now in
Alderman Miller's possession.

HEALTH INTEREST
Two New Matters of the
National Sanitary Board.
New Houses in an Unhealthy Lo.
cality-Officers Have Investi-
gated-Trials of Life.

Officers Reynolds and McVeigh and
several other gentlemen prominently
and actively identified with the admin
istration of the Health Department of
the Government, are watching with re-
greet the use of the partly reclaimed
section of the city now known as River
street. They point out that no more
unhealthy locality within miles of the
center of town could be selected for
residence or business purposes. They
say that the land is nothing like what
it should be to be allowed as building
sites and affirm that it will become a
death fountain the first time there is
any epidemic. The land is low and
wet, and upon the slightest rainfall, is
made muddy and remains in a marshy
condition for long time. Portions of
the tract are said to be nothing more
nor less than sewerage basins. The
buildings recently put up on the new
land are large and each one has in
mates about to the limit of the cubic
air regulations. The houses are used
by Chinese principally, Mr.. Reynolds
has brought the matter to the atten-
ton of the sanitary committee of the
Board of Health and hopes for decisive
action at an early date.
Nearly every resident of Waikiki
has signed a petition that will go tt

MONEY FOR PARK
More Funds Needed to
Maintain Kapiolani.
Treasurer's Report Shows Deficit.
How the $4,000 is Expended
Each Year.

AT a recent meeting Of the Trustees
of Kapiolani Park, the treasurer pre-
scented his report showing that the
present appropriation of $1,000 per an
mum was quite inadequate to meet the
current expenses of the park and to
keep that now popular institution in
any thing like decent order, and make
it present a beautiful and attractive
appearance to its numerous visitors.
Kapiolani Park has now become sub
urban necessity to Honolulu, and it is
surprising to note the number of per-
sons, men, women and children, who
throng the park on a pleasant after
noon and more especially on Sundays
and moonlight nights. Its shady ave-
nues are the delight of bicyclers and
carriage drivers.
The amount allowed by the Govern
ment for the maintenance of the park
is $1,000 per annum. To this may be
added about $500 or $500 year re-
ceipts from sale of keave beans, fire
wood, rents from track for races, ETC.,
making total of, says, $4,000 Out of
this there has to be maintained the
whole property of the park comprising
about $50 acres. This represents ever
eight miles of avenues, numerous
bridges, culverts and fences. all of
which have to be kept in repair, to say
nothing of the regular work which is
constantly going on, of retaining
swamp lands, building of new avenues,
planting of trees, watering of roads
and other work incidental to the care
of the park.
At present the staff of the park con-
sist of 16 laborers and one manager.
Their wages, with the cost for grain
and shoeing working animals, more
than uses up the receipts, so that by
the treasurer's showing, a deficit OF
nearly $1,000 has taken place since the
new commissioners took hold, some
two years ago. Unless relief is obtained
from the Legislature # will be neces-
sary to curtail much of the work and
necessary repairs, which will eventu-
ally detract from the beauty and at
Effectiveness of the place.
1t is to be hoped that the present Leg
islature will see their way to helping
out the commissioners with a more lib
eral appropriation than has hitherto
been granted, SO that the present in
debtedness may be liquidated and some
much needed articles like water
sprinklers and mules be obtained.

the dock, but could not get inside the
building from that region. 1t was then
brought to the town side, where one of
the large double doors had been forced.
A minute after chemical streams were
applied there came water from both
steamers. In about ten minutes there
was no more fire.
Damage will amount to several thou
sand dollars. The storage place was
well filed Everything inside was in
sured The contents included 300
sacks of wool, bundles of sugar bags,
sacks of flour, nails. matches. rope,
wire, boxes of cloth and prints, in
short merchandise of all kinds. Con-
siderable harm must have been done
by water, though Chief Hunt tried to
aveid this loss.
The fire seemed to have started in
about the center of the building. 1t
seized well on the roof timbers, as the
iron covering was red hot for many
yards. Archie Gilfillan was on hand
for the owners, but after interviewing
watchmen and others thought it was
only common guessing to attempt to
say what caused the blaze Any loose
fire might have been carried through
a ventilator by the prevailing wind, or
a cigar or cigarette stump with fire
might have been left inside during the
day. Water was played on the place
for perhaps half an hour. Then force
of Hackfeld men went to work.

way ran a line of hose from his vessel.

the ports of the former for military
purposes.
That sort of annexation will not ac-
complish the many purposes of the
union contemplated by the treaty or
the Joint resolution. Full and perma-
nent amalgamation is necessary to
solve the many problems of the present
and the future. The United States
must assume the four millions of debt.
It must take over all obligations and
responsibilities now borne by Hawaii.
The compact must be forever, not for
the uncertain period of this war. Other
military necessities than those now at
hand may arise in the future, and Ha-
waii must be ours to cope with them
as well as with those that now prompt
the President of the Island Republic to
advance his generous. offer.
Therefore annexation becomes war
measure of graver import than though
it related solely to the fight with Spain
1t must be considered as one of the
broad phases of the Nations develop
ment and treated accordingly. The
matter has been debated fully and is
thoroughly understood by all. Further
argument is unnecessary. The House
can pass the joint resolution within a
few days, or even a few hours. The
Senate should then be sufficiently pa
triotic to lay aside its traditions, as it
did on the historic occasion when it
passed the fifty million dollar war fund
bill unanimously and in silence, and
quickly pass this joint resolution.

A MIDNIGHT FIRE.
Blaze in Wharf Warehouse of
Hackfeld & Co.

The fire department was called out
just at the crack of midnight. The
alarm was sent to the telephone offices
from the Customs service watch of last
night. At first it thought a ship was
burning. The direction was to run to
the Pacific Mail wharf Two steamers
and the chemical engine made good
time to the water front. 1t was found
that the fire was inside the large ware
house of H. Hackfeld & Co., Ltd, just
mauka of the shed of the Pacific Mail
wharf
Suction pipes from the steamers
were dropped into the bay. There
seemed quite wait for water. The
high wind interfered with getting up
steam. The chemical was taken on

is OF GRAVE IMPORT.
As a War Measure Annexation
Means Much to America.

The Washington Stars says: The
military value of Hawaii to the United
States was never more plainly appar-
ent than today, when events in the
Pacific have shown how necessary it is
for this country to possess a resting
point in that great ocean. Commodore
Dewey's victory at Manila has demon
strated the force of all that has been
theoretically advanced in favor of Ha-
waiian annexation for many years.
tits now proposed to press the annex
alton project in the House of Repre-
sentatives, where it stands in the form
of joint resolution. On such meas
ure a majority vote sufices to secure
action. The House can logically and
probably speedily pass this resolution
as a war measure, such as it virtually
is today under all existing circumstan-
ces. With this start in the lower House
the resolution is expected to receive
prompt Endorsement by the Senate. 1t
is known that very nearly two-thirds
Of the Senate favor annexation.
The President of Hawaii has, it is
said, officially made tender to the Pres
ident of the United States of what
amounts to the military possession of
the Islands. Whether this carries with
it the sovereignty over the present Re
public or is intended solely as a tenn
porary expedient in aid of the United
States in its campaign against Spain is
not at present clear. The proposition
seems most definitely to be that of an
alliance between Hawaii and this
country, giving to the latter access to
