Chinese LaborerS and Plantation
People Engage i'm the Battle.

Six police officers under Senior Cap
tain Parker were sent post haste To
Waianae yesterday morning in answer
to Il telephone message for police as
sistance to- suppress trouble with
Chinese laborers on the plantation.
1t appears that on Monday last one
o. their number was fined $50 for an
assault with a club on one of the lunas.
and during the night Il gang of about
fifty men gathered around the Jail with
the avowed intention of releasing their
comrade by force. but the sheriff. with
the assistance of the plantation people,
drove them off after u scuffle in which
about ten of the laborerS We're laid out.
The trouble was then considered
over. but early yesterday morning IL
broke out afresh. and a stronger dis
play of force was made. hence the mes
sage for assistance.
Upon arrival at Waianac the police
found that the men. getting wind al
their coming. had returned to- theil
work in the fields, but upon informa'
ton given, they arrested three OF tbs
most prominent disturbers of the peace
and confined them In the local Jail
Rurther arrests will most probably h,
made during the day.

NO DIVY DECLARED.
Will Complete the Route From Worcester
to West End Railway In Boston Stock :
Rated at 1876 Manipulators Are
Bearing It-Financial
Statement.

Worcester stockholders are convinced
that the magnates have an eye on the
Worcester & Marlboro street railway.
Every indication is that the road is des-
tined to figure in one of the big street
railway deals new being launched in
New England.
Rumors of the approaching combine
have been rife for some months and
in the most recent move of the directors
of the road local stockholders believe
they have abundant confirmation of
their suspicious. For the first time in
it's history, the road has declared no
semi-annual devidend. Since the road
began operations three years ago, a Sc
mi-annual dividend of per cent has
been declared in January and July. At
a meeting in Boston last week the di-
rectors voted to declare no dividend.
No notification to that effect has yet
been received by local stockholders,
but the fact Is frankly admitted by two
Worcester directors of the road. Cou-
pied with this announcement there
comes from the Boston end a report
that Tucker Anthony & Co, of Boston,
who practically control the Worcester
& Marlboro road, have recently gained
control of the road from birmingham
to Natick. This firm of bankers, rep
resenting syndicate, have for some
time controlled the road from Marlboro
to birmingham, and with the control
OF the road out of this city it will own
the entire route from Worcester to a
connection with the West End railway
at Boston.
OF this entire line of As miles the Wor-
cester & Marlboro has been the banner
road from paying standpoint The
middle section of the road is not a gilt
edged investment, it is said, and never
has been since it was constructed
Therefore it is believed natural that
Tucker, Anthony & Co. should want
control 81 the local railway And by
local stockholders the latest move, IN
allowing a lapse of the usual dividend
which was due Tuesday, is interpreted
to mean that the nagnates have inaug-
urated a campaign for its control.
The stock is rated at 105 A 6 per
cent stock, such as the Worcester &
Marlboro has always been until now
ought to be worth 100 or 1875. Shrewd
business men believe the first and most
easily encompassed method of bearing
the stock has been adopted. The OBJ
ject in view and the natural result of
non-payment OF dividend is to drive
out the small stockholders. There is
on the list or stockholders of the Wor-
cester & Marlboro railway an unusual
ly large number of holdings of Ave, ten
or fifteen shares. Stockholders are
scattered over the entire route through
Shrewsbury and Northboro, Westboro
and birmingham.
Control of the road is not easily ac-
quired, except by creating poor re-
turn for the investment, and it is be-
lieved that the method adopted is for
the purpose of gaining control and of
gobbling up the stock.
Two Worcester directors Of the cor
poration, John G. Machines and Otis g.
Putnam, frankly admit that If deal
is on, they are not in the inner circle.
They say they can surmise from indi-
cations what is in the wind, but they

COUNCILMEN TALK.
Favor Mazeteers With Their
Views on City Gov
eminent.

New York, Aug. 3.-This morning the
members of the board of aldermen and
the council. who had been summoned be-
fore the Mazet legislative investigating
committee for the purpose of giving their
opinion as to the usefulness of the munich
pal council to Greater New York, filed
into the supreme court ROOM in which the
hearing is now being conducted.
The morning session was given over to
the examination of Francis T. Lantry
commissioner of correction, Alderman
Howard It. Dixie and Councilman LEIGH.
Commissioner Lantry was examined as to
the methods adopted by Horgan & Stat
terry In their dealings with the depart
ment of correction Nothing sensational
was elected, though the interesting fact
was brought out that one of the witnesses
objections to the employment of Withers
a Dickson, the architects, was that United
States Senator Hanna had written letters
recommending the iron company which
they represented,
During the afternoon number of the
mernbers Of the municipal council APP
peared before the Mazet committee and
explained their view upon questions re-
lating to the city government in general
and their votes or failures to vote for the
bond issues in particular The democrats
and republicans, citizens union men and
men who received the votes of the fol-
lowers of Henry George alike testified
and their Views were as widely divergent
as the sections Of the city or the different
political parties they represented.
Some favored a single house of munich
pal assembly others advocated the grant
Ing of more power to both council and the
board of aldermen,and still others thought
matters should be allowed to become az
they are at present. Because of engage
neiits Of members of the committee an
adjournment was taken this afternoon
until Tuesday next.

President Is Only Waiting Now for the
Season to Begin.

Plattsburg, N. Y, Aug. 3.-President

the lake this forenoon, accompanied by
DIR. Rixey. Mrs. McKinley's health
continues to improve.
Dispatches We're received by the pres
ident from the war department last

had heard with regret of the death of
Col. Hawkins, whose gallantry in the
Philippines was so marked.
Mrs Mckinley today went driving
twice, the president holding the reins
both times over the handsome pair of
bays sent over from Burlington, VT, by
Col LeGrand B. Cannon. Their route
today was up the Saranae valley.
The deer hunting season opens one
week from next Tuesday, and President
Mckinley will have an opportunity of
enjoying the sport, as some Of the finest
hunting grounds in the Adirondacks are
within a few hours journey of Hotel
Champlain The deer are so numerous
this year that they are coming out of
the woods into the clearings, and they
are causing considerable damage to
crops.
The president today had call from
DR.. A. D. Richardson of West Chazy, a
farmer 70 years of age, who wfAe all
the way from his home, is mics, to
shake hands with the president.

yesterday in such a sensational man.
ner. Pell took the second set. but Al

the match.
The oid-time veteran, Bob Hunting

that he had an unlimited reserve force,
Inc only other match finished this
morning was that between Dwight Da.-
WIS, the Harvard expert, and the Long
wood Club crack, Goldman. The former
Won rather easily in four sets.
The match between Leo E. Ware, the
ex-champion, and the speedy Harvard
player, Holcomb Ward, that was start
ed In the morning, lasted until nearly q
O'CLOCK in the afternoon, and proved to
pc one OF the star events of the day.
Inc ex-champlon gave evidence of be-
ing at his best. Both players scored on
the opposing service up to four all,
when Ward pulled out two games and
the set. Ward continued his play with
winning streak in the second set and
Ward only counted on one game. Both
were running into the barrier at every
opportunity, and their volleys over the
net were OF the smash and kill'' order.
When the next set was started the
harvard man set pace which Ware
could not keep up with and took the
set at 6--1. The fourth and fifth sets
were deuce sets.
In the afternoon two matches in the
doubles were played, and furnished the
most intense excitement for the specta-
tors. The veteran team composed of
BOB and Ford Huntington met with de-
Ieat at the hands of Whitman and

one-slded at the start, the old-timers
braced up in the second set. and for a
time threatened to turn the tables on
their champion opponents.

Constance Grounds
Before Crossing
the Line.
OWNERS PROTEST NOT Needed.
Evident That Course Was
Not Properly Laid
Out.

Dorval Que, Aug. 3.-Today's race,
which was to have been the final one
for the Seawanhaka cup between the
American challenger, Constance, and
the Canadian defender, Glencairn,
turned out most unsatisfactory for
Skipper Duggan had to sail his boat
over the course alone, while Mr. Crane
of the Constance, after protesting the
race, because of his yachts having
taken ground with her centreboard in
maneuvring on the starting line, had
Constance brought down from the
course off Pointe Claire to che st. Law
renee Yacht club house at Dorval. In
the evening the sailing committee, af-
ter considering the protest, gave the
race to Glencairn.
There was fresh southwest breeze
all the morning, which increased now
and again in puffs, but later in The
rived, at 1.25 the breeze was very
moderate. In changing the buoys it
was found that each leg would have
to be reduced to one and a half miles,
making the course four times around
to complete the IL miles. After consid-
cradle trouble of this kind, and the
buoys had been changed three times,
the starting whistle blew at 3.05, and
the waiting spectators looked anxiously
for race.
Glencairn crossed the line at 305 15
but Constance did not cross, having
struck the ground while maneuvring
for the start as above stated. Tllen
followed Mr.. Cranes verbal protest
but the officials decided to continue the
race and deal with the protest after
ward. By this time Glencairn was well
up the first leg, and a small yacht was
sent up to instruct her to complete the
course. Glencairn accordingly proceed
ed and with the moderate wind which
was blowing, finished the u miles at
6,25:15, well within the five hour Tins
limit.
Regis H. Post, part owner Of
Constance, gave out the following state
ment BY the rules of the Seawanhaka
deed of gift, the windward and back
course should he three miles to wind
ward and return, sailed twice. This
rule was waived by special agreement,
and in place thereof the rule was sub
stituted that the course should be two
miles to windward and return, sailed
three times In the first instance the
course was laid out two miles, but the
wind hauled so that it blew nearly
across the course. / instructed Mr..
Crane to protest for me, and to request
windward and return course. The
sailing committee acceded and Prof.
Capper logged the course from the
starting line to windward, a little over
one mile, when he got into shoal water
and had to stop. The sailing commit
tee then moved the starting line in
shore and sent the Monaco to wind
ward for the mark The line was so
far in shore that the Constance struck
her board twice during the maneuver-
ing from the start, and finally just at
the starting whistle ran aground.
called the constance and protested the
course to the sailing committee. also
offered if they would recall the Glen
cairn, to move the starting line out
shore and sail the race on the course as
it existed This was declared impos-
sible and 1 withdrew the Constance. :"
