WORK OF SHORE PIRATES.
$4,000 and First Omcer Prob
ably Murdered.

SEATTLE. WASH, April 7.-Oriental ad-
vices state that the steamer Kwonghoi had
an exciting experience on a recent visit at
the island of Samai, in which her treasure
chest was robbed of $4,000 by shore pirates,
assisted by native members of the crew,
and her first officer was probably murdered.
The officers were invited to a native feast
on shore on the night of the robbery. The
first mate started back to the ship before
the captain. He found the pirates in the
act of breaking into the treasure room and
attacked them single-handed. They used
their clubs freely and knocked him in
sensible before he could use his gun. After
securing two cases of 5000 each they either
threw the mate overheard or lowered him
into boat that lay alongside. They all
left the ship and took to the woods, where
1t is believed they murdered MIN.

considerable difficulty the belligerents were
dispersed. A squad Of police was sent to
the plantation from Honolulu, and martial
law was declared on the plantation. Police
from other sections were soon on the SPOT
and before nightfall fifty-fiye peace off1.

cited and the merchants In Honolulu look
for further trouble. though the better class
are making every effort to keep the oppos-
ing factions within legal bounds.
The Japanese and the Chinese had some

they visited the Chinese quarters to Identify
on Saturday, for the purpose Of having

OKLAHOMA CROPS.
Wheat Il in Average Condition, but
Fruit Prospects Are Not the
Brlghtest.

GUTHRIE, o. T., April 7.-(Special.) The
report Of the Oklahoma weather bureau.
issued to-day. shows that the serious
weather of the winter retarded all but
wheat, and fruit prospects are not as
bright as usual. The wheat crop, as a
whole, is reported to be in average condi-
ton. Early sown wheat gives excellent
promise, but late sown wheat is generally
poor, the high winds having utterly ruined
many fields. Indications are favorable for
a light crop of peaches, pears and plums,
while grapes apples and late fruits are not
thought to have been injured. There was a
deficiency in rainfall during the entire
winter, but the grornd generally is moist
and in good condition, although too cold
for all crops except wheat

A cATTLEMAN's VIEW.
Sales VIII be Made THIS Year at the
Prices of Last Year.

George W Atkinson OF Calabasas is
q catteman who believes that the prices
of cattle viii rule as high this year as
last although the tendency among buy
ers at the present. time IS to discourage
this because according to their claims
they did nos make anything in the last
years operations.

Mr.. Atkinson says TIL at the cattle in
terests OF this portion OF Arizona were
never in better condition. THE ranges, "
he said, are not stocked as heavily as
they were q few years ago and cattle
men nle not forced to sell until they find
an agreeable market price We look ut
the situation in TIL s W ~: Tho price of
beef is higher today IN Tucson than it
has seen for fourteen years. This same
condition prevails throughout the coun-
try. 1t is higher than it was a year ago
when we were getting the prices for our
stock which we ask again this year. The
country, as far rs can see, is at the
mercy of a combination of cattle dealers
who are holding up the price of beef
and trying to reduce the purchase price
of cattle. AS far rs the stock men of
southern Arizona are concerned, tlis
trust will have little effect upon them.
They are in position to hold their crttle
for higher prices than are now efsred
and they will do so. I look for great
many sales this year for I believe that
the cattlemen are gong to get the prices

garding revenue stamps. Collector

New Orleans. NJ p. Freeman, presi-
dent of the Consolidated National bank

rison 4 letter from Col Sower, in which
the latter had decided that checks
drawn by depostor in such manner
as to make them non negotiable when
presented TO Il bank in lerson do not
need Il revenue stamp. This ruling
was quotel in the papers all over the
United States. Col. Morrison, on the
other hand, ruled that such checks, or
