A Correspondent Denies the Story of
Public Indignation.
Waimea. Kauai, March 10th, 1900.

Waimea, Kauai, March 10th, 1900.
Editor Advertiser: Relative to a
communication in recent issue Of your
esteemed paper. to the effect that "all
Kauai" was reused and objected to the
visit of Attorney General Cooper here,
and that great indignation prevails on
that account, IL is only justice to all
concerned to say, that mony of Kauai's
most respected and representative peo-
pie did not express themselves adverse
ly regarding his visit Their view is
that the Attorney General in his official
capacity as member or quasi repre-
sentative of the Board of Health has
a perfect right to visit any part of the
Islands at any time that such visits be
deemed eXpedlent or necessary. The
fact Is that many OF the people, espe-
cially on the leeward side of the island,
by reading the said article. received the
first intimation of such Indignation and
objection existing here.
Respectfully yours,
LEEWARD.

MURDER AT KAHUKU.

News was telephoned last night of a
cutting ARRAY at camp of Kahuku
plantation, which resulted in, the death
of Horie, Japanese.
The cause of the trouble was dis
pute over game of cards. Anumoto,
the murderer, and the dead man both
drew knives and fierce struggle took
place. Horie was badly cut twice in
the back and slash across his stomach
disemboweled him. He died Saturday
evening at 1890. Animoto was also
badly cut across the forehead and in the
right arm. He with n companion ran
away when Horie fell. The companion
was captured by the Waialua police at
Waimea.
A diligent search is being made for
Animoto. He is described as a short
man having two old scars on the back
of his head and two front teeth missing.
The quarantine guards at the Pail and
Moanalua have been notified to be on
the lookout and 1t Is not thought prob
able that the man can escape to town.

REAL ESTATE

Real estate prices sn Che diu sellers
state, were arm durinA the week NO
approciablc tendency to go up nor any
noticeable attempt to shade prevailing
figures Some OF the dealers were OF
the opinion that enough transfers OF
real estate had been made TO prove that
there is a steady market for property,
both city and suburban. Inquiry among
the principal brokers however, does not
develop particularly lively market.
The main purchases appear to be in the
districts whore cheap lots can be OBJ
tanned. Kewalo district at present
seems to have the lead for speculative
and for immediate building purposes.
When attention was given TO prop
erty in this and outlying districts, large
blocks were subdivided and lots sold
on the instalment plan; some of the
original purchasers bought in this man
ner and have sold recently at Il consid-
cradle advance. IL is believed by the
real estate men that now Is the time
to buy, and they aver that no better
opportunity than the present will offer
before prices begin to rise. When
figures advance, anxiety to purchase
seems to be the rule. The prices are
reasonable at present and certain prom
inent brokers assert a rapid advance
Is directly in view; the opportunity
however, to take up these offers is de-
ferred.
SO far however, as the real estate
market is concerned one firm stated
that 1t depends largely upon the con-
u.Llon of the banks and their DISPOSE
ton TO loan money. Just at the present
time the dirt sellers figure that these
monied institutions are not in position
to loan money as freely as previous to
the plague outbreak. AS soon as the
present inactivity in commercial cir
Giles slackens, there is no doubt in their
minds as to the loosening up of the cir
cuatlng medium. and an active market
being maintained
On account of the pressure for prop
erty made by Chinese DESTROYS of OBJ
tanning new locations for the purpose of
resuming business, property values on
the other side of the river, together
with those spoken of in the kewalo
district, have stiffened materially. For
such properties there has been brisk
demand. Considerable building in the
suburban districts is going on. Lum-
Der still controls building operations
owing to the general advance since the
commencement of detention and relief
camp construction. The scarcity OF
lumber and it's skyward prices have had
the effect of holding off many property
sales inasmuch as many intending pur-
chasers desired to commence building
operations upon the purchase Of such
property
