MOVEMENTS OF All MAN
CORRESPONDENT TAKES ISSUE
WITH BALLOU.
Thinks the Evidence Tends to Show He
Was at All Fai's Rather Than at
McLean's.

EDITOR STAR:--In re All Mans
movements after leaving the pantheon
saloon premises, Mr. Ballou states that
the sub-inspector of All Fai's house
on Wyllie street is able to state posi-
lively that All Man was not in the
house on any of the days between the
time he left the saloon, until discovered
on Friday morning.
1 would like to ask, how can the sub
inspector be so positive of this, if he
did not remain on the premises at all
hours of the day or nigh- during that
time. Was it not possible for All Man
to hide himself away from the house,
at the time the sub-inspector made his
regular rounds, and was it likely that
he would remain in the house, either
on top or under the bed, when the time
came for the sub-inspectcr to make his
regula- inspection
How is it also, if the man was on the
Mclean premises, as stated, during the
whole of Monday, Tuesday and We'd
nesday, that the sub-inspector of those
I premises did not report him at head
quarters This is something which Mr..
Ballou has not yet explained, and sure
| ly if the man was on those premises
| during that time, the sub-inspector
would have seen him.
The evidence that Mr.. Ballou as
gathered may seem overwhelming to
MIN, but evidence just as strong as he
| possesses, can be produced to prove
that All Man never entered the Nc
Lean premises, and further proof that
he did not, lies in the fact that no other
| case of plague has broken out on those
premises, which in all probability would
have happened had he slept there as
long as 1t is stated he did. The fact
that three other cases of plague have
since broken out among those empl ~
ed on the Pantheon saloon premises,
two of which were fatal makes it rea-
sOnably sertain that All Man remained
on those premises longer than the
parties interested state he did.
The employers of All Man did wrong
/ to discharge him and allow his to leave
! their premises, especially when they
knew the man had been sick. If they
suspected something was wrong
with him at the time, it was their duty
to have prevented him from going else
where. Instead of this, it would appear
that they hustled him off the place and
thought that by so doing, all their
| trouble would be at an end. Instead
of quaFantining the premises, the sa-
loon ard stables were allowed to con-
linue business right along, even after
Ah Mans death, although it was a well
| known fact that he had assisted in
| serving drinks at the bar of the saloon
a few days previous to his death.

THAT MAkANELI WHALE

Kauai has come back at Captain
Mosher of the Ke Au Hou and not only
resents the imputatiOn that it's whale
was not genuine but sends report
that there were half a dozen whales off
the island, that the one on the beach
was not an inch less than thirty-fiVe
feet long and that it has been cut up
and most of it eaten.
Captain Tullett of the James MaKee
says that it was a true whale that
got stuck on the beach of Makaweli.
1t was at least thirty-fve feet in
length" said the captain this morning.
Captain Mosher made a big mistake
when he said that it was only twelve
feet.
THE natives who got the monster
have made about four hundred dollars
selling the meat which was eaten by
the Japanese. l never heard of eating
whale meat before, but they say it is
like beef. I have eaten porpoise and
that is like beef. Some of the natives
who had tasted the Makawel whale
say that it's meat was very good.
"On the day that the whale got
stranded at Makaweli 1 saw half a doz-
en- of them out in the water They
spouted high columns of water and in
playing seemed to throw themselves
half out of the sea. Their fins looked
like more than twelve feet

The people of Block 10 passed their
first night in quarantine last night.
Everything has been fitted up for them
at the Drill shed camp in an excel
lent manner Quarters are provided
in the old armory and in the frame
building erected by the United States
for the Drill shed guard. In the first
place these quarters were thoroughly
cleansed out and fumigated Then they
were partitiOned off by curtains into
sleeping apartments, very similar i'm
appearance to, though roomier than
the section of Pullman sleeping car.
Each apartment is provided with a
single bed with clean new bedding in
Guiding sheets and pillow cases. There
is a little stand in each apartment for
washbowl and pitcher and slop jar.
Soap and towels are fumigated. There
is a shelf for toilet articles and by to-
night there will be a small mirror in
each apartment. All the apartments
are well lighted and aired and are al
together wholesome and comfortable.
The dining room is in the old armory
and is well appointed, with tables COW
cred with table cloths, and table ware
that is clean, new and substantial.
Meals are served at regular hours.
There are two medical examinations
daily, at 8 o'clock in the morning and,
at in the evening
The lanai of the frame building erect
ed by the United States Army is used
as reading and recreation room. 4
water cooler is provided, and the re-
quest ia made that people send in any
reading matter they can.
There are about 143 persons from
block 10 of whom about so are white
Many of these are from Fowler's yard.
By far the larger number of the jap
anese and Chinese who were at the
drill shed camp have left. Superinten-
dent Doyle cut down the rations after
the quarantine period was up, provid-
ing enough, but not such variety as
during the quarantine period. The re-
suit has been a redoubled effort on the
part of the people themselves to find
places to live. .-.--...-..

THE HOMELESS.

In response to the suggestion in yes
terdays Star, that night shelter for
the homeless from the detention camps
might be provided and that this phase
of the work might be turned over to
the Salvation Army, Major Wood of the
Salvation Army says he and his fellow
officers are ready to undertake any new
work of this kind that may be assigned
to them or to assist in any work now
going on.
Whether the suggested use of a tent
for such regular night shelter in
view of the additional relief camps that
have been established, is necessary or
not, there would seem to be need of
some organized effort to let the people
for whom these are provided, know of
them. One or two cases have already
been discovered of people from the de-
tention camps almost starving because
they did not know of the provision
made for them. Theodore Richards in
charge of Relief Camp No. /, has asked
that people seeing Japanese or Chinese
wandering around at night, homeless,
should direct them to the relief camps
He says one difficulty to be met with
is that some of tne Japanese and Chi
nese fear that in some way If they go
back to the detention camps or relief
camps they will get into quarantine
again.
What would seem to be necessary is
a systematic search, late at night, for
those without a home, and their remov-
al to one of the relief camps.

FOUR CAMPS TO HOLD 5000
PEOPLE.
Will be Domiciled Until They Can Get
Permanent Accommodations
sene Warehouse Camp.

The kerosene warehouse cara will
likely be used in future as a. for
homeless Japanese and Chin hose
burned out of Chinatown. The~sUgges-
tion comes from the Citizens Sanitary
Committee to the Board of Health and
is considered a good one.
The necessity of providing accommo-
dations temporarily for the people re-
leased from quarantine has repeatedly
been urged by the papers. Now the
community is face to face with the con-
tingency. The finding of a half starved
Chinaman in the street yesterday was
the forerunner of what is in sight.
Mr. Thurston stated to the committee
that there must be accommodations for
several thousand people. 1t should be
place in which they could keep their
belongings and sleep. Nothing in the
arrangement would interfere with their
working on the outside and planning for
permanent homes. The principal thing
now was providing domicles. Asiatics
with money were unable to get living
quarters anywhere. Some had friends
who were taking them in but no con-
siderable proportion could be cared for
in this way without overcrowding,
which could not now be allowed.
superintendent McVeigh has made
arrangements at Kalihi to take the 400
people left in the kerosene camp. 1t is
! then proposed to thoroughly clean the
latter and open it to the homeless.
Nearly 1000 souls can be provided for
comfortably there With Honuakaha,
the drill shed and the new camp on
! Vineyard street about 5000 people can
be housed until they can shift for
/ themselves.
| 1t is stated that the laboring classes
of Chinese and Japanese are without
| funds and some provision in the mat
! ter of food will probably have to be
! made for them

PLAGUE IN FEBRUARY.
Number of Cases Since Last Table Was
Published.

The last plague table was published
in these columns on January 81, and
showed 46 deaths up to that time. Since
then there have been four deaths Of
plague, bringing the total up to even
80. Following is a complete list Of
deaths and suspicious cases since Jan
Uary 81:
Feb, 2-Wong Chin, Chinese, aged c3,
0ied at pest house of Crinese hospital
in Palama. This man came from the
Pantheon saloon and slept in the hay
loft with Ah Man, who died a week
before.

the night watchman at the Pantheon
stables. viii recover.

PLANTS FOR GUAM.

Captain Dunlop, of the Solace, says
the Japan Gazette, has been commits
stoned by the American authorities in
the Philippines to obtain a collection of
plants and trees for transportation to
the Island of Guam. Representations
have been made to the Afforestation
Department of Hongkong with the
view of obtaining assistance in the car
lying out of the commission. The Af
forestation Department may be able to
supply a selection of plants, but 1t is
thought that it will be necessary to go
to Japan and Honolulu for the large
proportion of the order, which princi-
pally comprises fruit trees.

THE COMING LEGISLATURE
OFFICIAL OPINION THAT 1T MAY
COME SOON.
News Expected by Next Mail from
Coast-Session will be One of Most
Important In Years.

The Government expects to receive
instruction by the next mail in regard
to the Legislature. The Importance Of
an early session was laid before Pres
ident Mckinley some days ago. viii
he direct that the session be held at
the regular Constitutional time, or be
postponed until the enabling act has
been passed? There is an impression
in the Cabinet that the former will be
the case.
Just how the Legislature would be
assembled is a conundrum. OF the
out-of- town members only two, Senator
Northrop and Representative Achi, of
Hawaii, are here. If there were steamer
accommodations it seems probable that
most if not all of the others will object
to coming to Honolulu until the pia-
que is over.
The opinion of the Attorney General
in regard to appropriations really
makes the situation serious, though not
so bad as it will be after March 81
when the appropriations under the loan
act will run out. At present, even the
Customs bureau, Board of Health, De-
partment of Education, Public Works
bureau and Post Office hardly know
where they stand in several important
particulars. The police department is
no better off. What are all of these
bureaus to do for 'incidentals," for in =
stance2 What about increases of pay
rolls made necessary by the expansion
of the past two years?
The approaching session of the Legis-
1ature will be an interesting one. In
fact, the chances are it will be rather
stormy There will be more matters
to be considered than ever before and
some of them will be of a most vexa-
tious nature. Matters in connection
with the plague will be piled high on
the tables of the secretaries. While
a court claims may have to wrestle
with the details the Legislature will
have to dispose of the matters.

McCANDLEss's PROPOSITION.
How He Would Put All People in Re-
lief Camps to Work

Senator McCandless has a scheme for
taking care of the people in the relief
camps until such time as work opens
up and there are positions for all of
them and more too. Its most salient
principal is in line with the policy OF
the Star which is Work and thou
shalt eat"
Il see $4,000 in four hours in which
to put all of these people to work" says
the Senator. THAT is to say. in a
single morning l will place in the hands
of committee of three good men that
amount Of cash with which to pay the
Chinese, Japanese and natives for their
work. We need rock for road work
and many of the roads need repairing.
Set them all to work This would keep
them busy and self supporting until the
situation opens up and they can do bet
ter
THE money would come from pri-
vate sources and the scheme would be
carried out privately 1t would there
fore not be matter for the Council of
State nor the Legislature to concern
themselves about. l am convinced that
it is the most feasible plan in sight"

WAREHOUSES; ARE FULL.

Warehouses of wholesalers in town
are jammed to the doors with goods.
Unless the quarantine is soon raised it
will be impossible to store shipments
now on the way from the east. Hack
field & Company, with the most and
largest warehouses in the country, are
taxed to the limit for ROOM Davies
& Company have big overflow and
will put up a temporary warehouse on
the Esplanade. Hall & Sons warehouse
on the Esplanade is bulging out at the
doors Other concerns are in the same
fix.
The cause of the jam is the shutting
off of island shipping. A large part of
the excess freight here consists of
plows, machinery, oil, sugar bags and
other articles ordered for the planta-
tiOns

doubtedly wanted to keep in Honolulu
