Ing Laue, Dinsmore brought the body
of his dead wife into the kitchen and
laid 1t where it was found by the neigh
borS when they were called In
Ihe motive for the crime was infatua-
ton for Mrs. Laue. She states Dinsmore
had repeatedly urged her to elope with
him, but she had refused. Dinsmore had
intended to commit the crime on Thanks
giving night, but Mrs. Laue saws she
persuaded him not to do it.
After the murders had been committed
Dinsmore told Mrs. Laue what story to
tell, and she had stuck to 1t until the
time of her confession. She affirms that
Dinsmore was gifted with hypnotic power
and that under its power she did as di-
rected. The brothers of Mrs Dinsmore
also say that he exercised the same in
Huence over his wife. They opposed his
marriage to their sister when it occurred
and did everything they could to break
up the match.

THE OREGON AT HILO.

The big battleship Oregon arrived in
port last Saturday afternoon % days
from Callao. Her arrival was a sur
prise and a pleasure to all Hilo, be-
cause it is the first time the place has
been honored with the presence OF a
vessel of this character and in which
so much of the history of the Spanish
war centers
A number of citizens prepared to
pay the ship a visit but unfortunately
for them the stay in the harbor was
too short.-Hawaii Herald.
The Oregon, en- route to Manila, ar
rived off port last Saturday about noon
and all Hilo turned out to watch the
approach of the magnificent battleship
which is the pride of the American ma
Wy. 1t was thought by everyone that
since she had come so near she inten-
ded to anchor here for a day or two
but such hone was Elusive and was
dispelled when she hove to outside the
reef and sent a boat ashore to ask for
news.-Hilo Herald.

ABOUT STEAMER NAISRESHON SHALL We PROVIDE?
CITIZENS THINK TOWN SHOULD
TAKE ACTION.
The Telephone Authorities are Willing
to Lend Assistance If Their Business
is Not Interfered With.

The situation with respect to the sig
Mailing of foreign steamers is the sub
ject of much discussion about town to-
day, and doubtless some remedy FOR
the present evil will be found. 1t is
understood that Mr.. Cassidy is ready
and anxious to lend his influence in
any scheme that will accomplish the
object, without greatly interfering
with the legitimate business of the tel
ephone exchange.
The Hawaiian Electric Company has
signified it's willingness and even de-
sire to continue it's assistance in the
matter of the whistles. Then" said
a citizen, "the government should
proceed at once to put an electric bell
line from the Diamond Head station to
the electric works 1t is better to
know that some steamer is sighted
than to know nothing at all about it
as at present.
1T seems to me, and to a good many
Others that we pay for a telephone for
the service it may give. In city like
this without a cable and isolated as we
are, every one waits with intense ex-
pectancy the arrival of foreign steam
ers. 1t is when a steamer is sighted
that the value of the telephone TO
many people is felt. So far as 1 am
concerned l would not give five cents
for my instrument now. Its value and
interest is gone.
THE situation is really serious An
noying is not the word to use. If Mr..
Cassidy cannot afford the service the
government or the people of the town
should Immediately make other ar
rangements."
A funny thing happened Saturday
night. When the Scindia and Iris were
sighted some outsider telephones the
fact to the electric works. Two whis-
ties We're promptly blown, in accord
ance with the old custom. 1t is stated
on the best of authority that the tele-
phone exchange was not so bothered
with inquiries that the shop had to be
closed uD.

SC|ND|A' 5 BAD BOILERS.
SHE WILL NOT GO ON WITH THE
OREGON.
But Will Return to San Francisco,
While the Iris Becomes Both Collier
and Fresh Water Consort.

The collier Scindia will probably re-
turn to San Francisco from here to
make repairs, instead of going on TO
Manila with the Oregon.
The Iris is taking on 1,600 tons of coal
and will be both collier and water dis
tilling consort to the Oregon from
here to the Philippines.
Between Callao and the Galapagos
the Iris developed some leaks in her
boilers, and Captain Barker of the Or
egon gave orders for the Scindia TO
keep her company to Honolulu, in case
she should need assistance. But after
leaving the Galapagos is was the Scin-
dia which had hard luck. The crown
sheets in one of her boilers gave way.
Leaks developed in the other boilers,
and finally she was reduced to one ef-
fective boiler. This is what made the
progress of the two vessels so slow and
their trip so long. 1t has now been
practically decided that the Scindia is
in such condition as to make it neces-
sary for her to go to San Francisco.
The Iris will make the necessary re-
pairs to her boilers here. This will re-
quire some time, perhaps two weeks
or more. Meanwhile she will take on
coal to her full capacity, 2,100 tons. She
will accompany the Oregon, coaling
the latter at Guam.
The Scindia and Iris had an unevent-
full trip except for the trouble with
their boilers. They We're so delayed
that they did not go by way of Hilo,
but steamed close to Lahaina to see
if the Oregon was there and then came
on to Honolulu. They arrived off port
at O'Clock yesterday morning and at
8 o'clock this morning the Iris came
up to the Mail wharf where she imme-
diately began coaling under the direc-
tion of Archie Gilfillan
The Iris has a water distilling ca
pacity of nearly $4,000 gallons in twen-
ty-four hours.
The Oregon will continue to coal here
by means of lighters. The schooner La
Naifa, which came in from Hilo yes
terday has been engaged as a lighter
for this purpose

CHINESE LAUNDRYMENN|N
CLOTHES SPRINKLING ACT Is
UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
Supreme Court Knocks Out the Act
Forbidding the Spraying of Clothes
With the Mouth.

The supreme court S. M. Ballou in
place of Justice Frear, has declared
w. o. Smiths act relating to the
sprinkling of clothes, passed at the last
session of the Legislature, to be un-
constitutional. The matter came up
in the appeal case of Ching Gueng and
Kaing, two laundrymen, from the de-
cision and sentence of the district
magistrate of Honolulu. The court
finds that as a health measure the act
is an unreasonable regulation, that it
places the police power beyond it's va
lid limit by abridging the rights Of in
dividuals, and is clearly against the
principles of the constitution.
In the Waialua stock suits the an
swers of defendants have been amend
ed so as to show that about August q
]. b. Atherton heard that Colonel So
per had the option to sell 10000 shares
of stock, but that said option was Inn
tied in time.
Yong Tai was thus morning convict
ed by foreign jury in Judge Stan
ley's court of importing opium. By
agreement between respective counsel
sentence was reserved until Wednc5-
day morning. Defendants attorney
had given notice of exceptions and mo.
ton for a new trial. Dole and Atkin-
son for the government; Humphreys
and Gear for defendant.
Chu Kit was before Judge Stanley
this morning for mitigation of sentence
of the district magistrate of Waianae,
upon defendants plea of guilty ID a
charge of having opium unlawfully in
his position. After hearing argument,
the court affirmed the original SEN
tence which was fine of $3.50. Dole
for government; Humphreys and Gear
for defendant.

The Rain God has Deserted the Rainy
City.
The rainfall in Hilo for the month
of January is given by the Hawaii Her
aid as 400 inches, as against 1888 in
ches in January, 1898. c. G. Kennedy
of Waiakea reports to the Hilo Tri-
bune that the rainfall for that district
at a height of 80 feet above sea level
was AIS inches, and at Waiakea, mau-
ka, at an elevation of $50 feet, 1t was
$50 inches.
People of Waiakea, mauka, are car
rying water from Waiolama for house
hold purposes.
The Hawaii Herald says:
For my part" said a coffee grower
from Olaa II am more interested in
how we are going to get a supply or
water in our district Fancy a district
where the average rainfall is over 200
inches per annum getting into a fix
where the planters have to tote water
for two or three miles We are now
ready to advocate purnping plants or
anything else that will give us a water
supply that we can depend upon. The
absence of rain, though, affects only
the nursery plants; it seems to benefit
only the old trees, for they have bios
SONS as big as the end of your thumb,
and that means they will set We want
rain, and so do you. The Rainy City
has changed its conditions so that dust
is prevalent and il becomes a nuisance.

NASNYSTER|OUS MURDER
POLICE WORKING ON DEATH OF
MANILA MAN.
Clew has Been Discovered and Arrests
May Shortly Follow-Circumstanc
of the Case.

There is a clew to the murderers of
Joe, the Manila man found dead at
the steps of his house in Kapukola last
Saturday night. AS yet, however, the
matter is a police secret and cannot be
divulged There may be interesting
developments before tomorrow after
noon.
The dead man was found at the
ground landing of the stairs at the
tenement i'm which he lived. Two
pools of blood had flowed from as many
wounds. in his head, evidently inflicted
by a heavy billet of wood or iron.
Death was almost or quite instant.
There must have been several assail-
ants.
No sign of struggle could be found
in the immediate vicinity. This faith
ers the theory that the killing occurr-
ed at some other place, the body being
dragged or carted to the spot at which
1t was discovered by a Chinese boy,
who had come home to the same build
ing late at night. Japanese and no
tives in the rooms above We're appar-
emily asleep and oblivious of the trag-
edy and the corpse at their door.
DR.. Emerson examined the body at
the station and Deputy Marshal Chill
lingworth looked over the premises
upon which the corpse was found. Yes
terday morning a jury empannelled
upon the case returned a verdict to the
effect that Joe came to his death
from an injury on his head, the result
of a blow probably received from the
hands Of a person to this jury un-
known"
Joe was an employe of the Honolulu
Iron Works. He had been in the coun-
try about three years, and worked for
a time with the Waianae plantation.
He was 45 years of age. The remains
