STRIKERS DEMAND DISMISSAL OF
M'KAY.
The Company Stands by It's Foreman,
Expressing the Highest Confidence in
Him-Refuse to Discharge Him.

The strike of the forty expert boiler
makers at the Honolulu Iron Works is
sull on. The men have now only the
option to quit or return to their work
under the formanship of Mr.. Mckay.
The officers of the company say
they have the utmost confidence
in Foreman Mckay and believe
that the grievances of the men are
largely, If not wholly imaginary. The
company believes they have been actu-
ated to this preconcerted movement on
their part throught the manipulation of
some one of the men who has a private
grudge against Mckay.
The boilermakers have so far refused
to come to any terms and so they must
quit their job or go back to work, under
the same conditions as prevailed before
the trouble. Their charges against Nc
Kay, in the opinion of the superintend-
ent and other officers connected with
the company, are those which can be
brought against any foreman who does
his duty to his employers and therefore
they will refuse to take issue with the
strikers against the foreman.
The boilermakerS who are on strike
say that the standing committee of the
Brotherhood will meet the officers of
the company this afternoon, and that
the committee was instructed to firm
ly refuse to return to work under Nc
Kay.
H. Lutan, one of the men, said that
although he had no personal grievance,
he believed the action of the men in re-
fusing to give in to Mckay was right.
He believed that Mckay had treated
the men brutally from first to last. He
said that those who knew Mckay the
longest were those least disposed to
give in He, himself, was convinced
that 1t would be better to sacrifice a
paying position than suffer such a state
of affairs to continue.
Speaking further, Lutan said: Il
think that the matter is properly un-
derstood by the officers of the company.
Mr.. Hedemann has won our highest re-
spect for his just dealing during this
trouble. We hope that the matter will
be settled so that the men will stay
with the iron works as, outside of Mr.
McKay's harsh treatment we could not
| be better pleased with the works.
What we want is q foreman who
will represent our best interests in deal
ing with any difficulty that might arise
We do not want foreman who will
| discharge a man on hearsay, as l fully
/ believe Mckay has done. We are ready
! and willing to do our work in a work
| manlike manner and further we are
gentlemen and wish to be treated as
such We don't want a driver, we want
| a foreman"

THE NEW GROCERY FIRM.

The firm of Henry May & Co., Limit
ed is Il consolidation of three leading
and substantial firms who have been
IN the grocery business in Honolulu for
many years. AT present and until their
fine new building is completed the busi-
ness will be carried on in the two stores,
one at corner of Fort and King street,
and the other in the WaVerley Block on

but they are now all complete, and the
firm will steadily reach out with a view
of increasing their already large busi-
ness. To those who know the members

sary to reiterate that it embraces all
the elements necessary to a successful
business, among which is ample capital,

MADE IN 1884 AND FOUND ON THE
KOOLAU BEACH.
Brought to Town Yesterday, it is Now
in the Bishop Museum-was Made In
France.

The old bronze bell of the last CEN
tury which F. Clifford Rhoaes found on
the beach on KOolau is now at the
Bishop Museum. Mr. Rhodes went over
there yesterday for it, having previous
ly located it, and brought it in with
him on the evening train yesterday
from Kahuku.
The bell is undoubtedly an old French
bell of the last century, ~~d seems to
have been a ships bell, though a very
large one for that purpose. 1t stands
about fourteen inches high and the dia-
meter at the mouth is about seventeen
inches. 1t weighs something over a
lying in the sand of the beach for GER
tainly a number of years, its tone is
very clear and melodious.
1t was originally very ornate, much
ornamentation having been cast on It.
This orHamentation includes what was
probably the French coat of arms of
the period it was made, though this is
clearly made out 1t is clear that it is
coat of arms of some kind, the only
uncertainty being as to whether It is
the French coat of arms.
Around the circumference of the bell,
near the top, is the inscription in the
style of letters of that period, "L'Jndif-
ferent 1884" indicating that it was cast
for some vessel named "The Indffer-
| ent," the initial being cast in the form
of j not an unusual thing at that
period. The letters show that they
were cast first and then We're put into
the mold when the bell was cast and
thus became brazed to the surface of
the bell, which was also a popularity
of the founders art at the period when
| the bell was evidently cast.
Beyond what the bell itself reveals,
little is known of its history. No one
seems to know of a vessel of the
name of indifferent ever having been
| in these waters or wrecked on the Koo-
| lau coast. But for that matter it might
| have been in use on some other vessel
| than that for which it was made, and
| thus brought here.
The natives in the neighborhood
where 1t was found say it has been ly-
| ing in the sand for number of years
six or eight at least, and it is said that
| it was formerly used in church neal
| the place where it was found, a church
| that has since gone to ruin.
| Mr.. Rhodes found it eight or ter
miles from Kahuku, near Hauula. AS
! long ago as 1874 there was a church
| there of a sect that had seeded from
| the congregational church. The build.
| ing went to ruin some years ago and /
seems probable that this was the churcl
in which the bell was used, though this
throws no light on how the bell came t.
the Islands, except that it offers a pos
sible means by which it's history nigh
| be traced.
| The bell is certainly curiosity, an(
! the very mystery concerning it adds t.
the curious interest it awakens.

PROVISIONS OF LAW ARE NOT
CARRIED OUT.
Holders do Not Reside and Fail to Cul-
tivate Proper Amount Of Land-Eben
Lows Views

"The law relating to right of pur-
chse leases and cash freehOlds is not
properly carried out" SAID Eben Low
this morning. II speak of Waimea,
which is a district l know, and i'm which
| have a cons lderable personal interest
THE law relating to the acquisition of
homesteads under right of purchase
leases, provides that the 'lesee shall
from the end of the first year of the said
term to the end of the fifth year thereof
continuously MAINTAIN his home on such
premises This is certainly not carried
out. | will tell you how the land agent
is fooled. He makes from three to four
trips a year through the homesteads.
ana when the holders of these leases
know that he is coming, they make
rush for the little shacks which they
have put up, and are apparently ocCu-
pying them. AS soon as the agent has
gone, they go back to their own homes.
And this is not the only thing, there
are at least two places where freeholds
have been acquired and the owners
have never lived upon the lots at all In
one case the shanty is there, but the
place has been used as store house for
corn and tools, and the agent has never
even taken the trouble to see whether
there was a bed in it. In the other case
there is a shanty which has never been
lived in.
Not only is the portion of the COndi-
ton relative to residence broken. but
the provision for cultivation is not car
red out. BY the law 10 per cent of the
area of the homestead should be plant
ed and kept in good growing condition.
In many cases a few pumpkin vines are
planted just to make a pretence of cul-
tiVatiOn, but they merely grow wild and
are uncared for. Further there should
be ten trees per acre either timber
shade or fruit. planted and cared for
This has also been neglected.
II know the place WELL and / can
safely say that of all the homes teads
taken up, only one settler has properly
carried out the provisions of the law.
What | complain of is that there are
plenty of bona fide settlers who are
willing to take up the lands, carry out
the conditions to the letter, and improve
the little properties, but they are bar
red uOtby people wha are not making
proper use of them and are not carrying
out the law. 1t is a failure of duty on
the part of the land bureau. not to en-
force the provisions of the law it does
the present holders no good, and it pre-
vents others from improving a tract of
country which is eminently capable of
/ improvement"
Mr. Low seems very much in earnest
I over his protest, and claims that he has
been extremely conservative in his
statements.
