PASSES AWAY SUDDENLY THIS
MORNING.
Took Champs While Bathing Near
Mokapu Point, East oahu, and Dies
in About Two Feet of Water.

Minister James A. King, of the Inte-
riOr, died in the water near Mokapu
Point, on the east side of oahu, while
bathing this morning.
The news reached town in a tele-
phone message from Wally Davis,
brother of Mrs. King shortly after
noon. The message was sent from Ka-
neohe and gave few details. At that
time the body was al Kaneohe and was
being brought to Honolulu.
According to the best information at
hand the sad end came at about 10
o'clock. Minister King and his family
went over the Pail late yesterday af-
ternoon to Koolau. This morning his
little children were playing in the shall
low water near the shore and the Min
lister decided to join them. While in
two feet of water he appeared to have
taken with cramps and fell. The child
rem were poWeress to help him, and
| before assistance could arrive from the
shore he was dead
| Minister Mott-SEA' tn and Attorney
| General Cooper lett at once for the
Pail to meet the body and accompany
it to Honolulu. John A. Hassinger and
| officers of Pacific Lodge, Masons wait
| ed at the house on Vineyard Street to
receive the remains. Ed A. Williams
the undertaken, will meet the party at
| the Pail and transfer the remains to a
! hearse.
Up to press hour absolutely no ar
rangements for the funeral had been
made. 1t most probably will not oc-
! cur i'm several days. 1t will be a state
! affair. The Masons will also have
! much to do with it.
Captain King, as he is popularity call
| ed, was a sailing master in the Pa
| cific for many years prior to settling
here in S7S. He had a schooner that
| piled between San Francisco, Alaska
I nd vic Tel dc
| every year.
| Minister King was born in Scotland 67
years ago in September. He married
| a Miss Davis here. Besides his wife five
sons and a daughter survive him. His
eldest son, Robert, recently left and
entered college in the East.
Captain King was a visitor to these
islands in ealy days, coming here in
the sixties as master of a schooner,
sailing between Honolulu and Alaska.
He followed the same occupation after
he made his home here, entering the
employ of the Wilder Steamship Com
| pany as first mate of the steamer Like
like, under Captain Reynolds. This was
in 1881 After a few months he was
promoted to the command of the MolO-
kai and in 1888 he was put in charge
of the Kinau, the cOmpany's best and
largest steamship. Later the company
gave him charge of all it's steamers,
making him superintendent on shore
and in this position he remained until
he entered the Cabinet of the Provision
al Government at the time of the over
throw. Up to that time he had had no
experience in political affairs, but he
| took a prominent place at once, his
abilities putting him in the first rank
among those who established the new
Government.
Captain King was a charter member

CUSTOM HOUSE NOT UNDER WAR
DEPARTMENT.
Assistant Secretary Vanderlip of the
Treasury Makes a Mistake in Letter
to a Honolulu Resident.

The receipt by a Honolulu resident Of
the following letter from Assistant Sec
retary Nanderlip of the treasury de-
partment has caused more or less COM
ment in town since Saturday:
"Sir-I have to acknowledge the re-
ceipt of your letter of the 2Oth ultmo
addressed to the President, and by him
referred to this department. in which
you make application for appointment
to a position i'm the customs service at
Honolulu and to advise you that as the
collection of revenues from customs at
the above named place is now under
the control of the War Department,
your communication has been referred
to the Secretary of War.
Respectfully yours,
IF. \. VANDERBILT.
Assistant Secretary" 4"
The customs business of the United
States is under the Treasury Depart
ment In all places where there is aC-
tual or quasi military control. the bust
ness is under the War Department.
This is the situation at present in Por-
| to Rico, cuba and the Philippines. To
place the local customs business under
the War Department would be to as
sign Hawaii to the position of conquer
ed territory.
Colonel Ruhlen, who would be In
I formed Immediately, ahead of anyone
i
| this morning, made this statement:
Il have not received any information
| to the effect that the Hawaiian GUS
! toms business is under the War Depart
/ ment. I am certain that the Assistant
! Secretary of the Treasury is mistaken
| in the matter He has gotten Honolulu
| confused with Porto Rico and other
| territory now occupied by the military.
| The customs business is only trans
! ferred to the War Department when
| there is military rule and the civil au-
thortes are unable to handle it. There
! is nothing in the past present or future,
as we can now see, to Justify any such
| course in the Hawaiian Islands. This
is not conquered territory, nor is it in
| any sense or measure under martial
rule. You may say that | am certain
that no such change has taken place
and that Mr.. Nanderlp is mistaken"
That positive statement and eXpana-
tiOn would seem to settle the matter
Collector General StaCkable. who would
also be advised of any such change,
said:
"T have received absolutely no infor-
ma ton of p transfer of the Hawaiian
customs business to the War Depart
ment."

has been made by the Assistant Secre,
tary of the Treasury.
A section of the Newlands Resolu-
ton expressly provides that there shal
be no change i'm the customs status OF
this country until Congress extends
American laws to the Tslan's.
Special United States Agent Sewel
also stated that he had never been in.

and he was not disposed to think that
such was the case.

STORY OF CHILDREN AND AN
EMPTY GUN.
Young Son of William Henning, of
Lahaina, Accidentally Shoots His
Baby Sister.

LAHAINA, October 13. - Friday
morning the little three-year-old
daughter of William Henning was ac-
cidentally shot by her brother, who is
about five years of age. The ball from
22-calibre shell passed through the
bone of the child's left arm, then
through her body, just above the stom-
ach, and finally through the flesh of
the right arm. Though the wound is
bad one, it will probably not result
fatally.
Mr. and Mrs. Henning had started
for Spreckelsville and had left the
children in charge of an uncle, Mrs.
Henning's brother. The oldest boy,
aged about eight went over to Mike
McLan's place and borrowed the rifle,
saying that his uncle wanted it to
shoot pigeons with. The latter eXtraC-
ted one shell at his blacksmith shop
and laid the rifle down, thinking it
was empty. 1t was then that the two
little children came in. AS the rife
was a repeater when one shell was
thrown out another entered the breech
and the weapon was left cooked.
The small boy picked up the gun,
aimed it at his sister and pulled the
trigger, with the result already stated
native on horseback was sent af-
ter Mr.. and Mrs. Henning, and the tel
ephone was used. The parents were
reached wen on the way to Spreckels-
vile and, returned Immediately home

reaching Honolulu. The whole regi-
ment had three months pay to spend

and nany rode bicycles. They were all

the men bought wares of all sorts. some
needed and great deal they did not
require. During the afternoon the en-
listed men presented their faNorIte oiIi-

usually handsome pipes or boxes Of
cigars. The presentations were set off
with speeches and cheering

BASEBALL NEXT SEASON.
Players Propose To Use The Old
Grounds At Makki


The present baseball grounds at Ma
kik can not be used for the same pur-
pose next year. on April the lease of
the Baseball association expires and the
tract covered by the grounds will he
cut np into building lots. Something
must be done to provide a new place
for next year, if baseball is to be con-
tinued.
1t has been suggested that a suhi-
cient amount of money be raised by
private subscription to pay the eXpen-
ses of the teams during the season:
that the games be played on the old
baseball grounds, and be open to the
pub!tc 1t is learned that this plan is
wholly feasible if the public will only
do it's duty in the matter Indications
now are that this plan will be acted up
on in the next few weeks. Baseball
men wish to move at once so as to get
the grounds in shape.
