AGAINST WAIKIKI SALOON
SUPREME COURT SAYS OTTMAN
MUST CLOSE.
Establishment is too Close to Waikiki
Inn and Peacock's New Hotel-The
Ruling on Law.

The Supreme Court filed a decision
today which will close the Ottman light
wine and beer saloon at Waikiki. The
case is important on account of the
questions involved. Ottman's place ran
year. In the meanwhile Peacock and
the proprietors of the Annex were given
modified saloon licenses. The law pro-
viding for light wine and beer licenses
expressly forbids the issuance of any
license under it to operate at any place
withing two miles of saloon
Ottman applied at the end of his year
for renewal of his license. The Minis
ter of Interior refused on the ground
that his establishment was within two
miles of Peacock's place. Ottmau re
piled that his license was in operation
before the Peacock license was granted
and could not be affected by it. BY
agreement the matter was referred to
the Supreme Court The courts sum-
mary is as follows:
Held, that renewal of a light wine
and beer license cannot be issued with =
in the prescribed limits (two miles from
a saloon) after the issuance of a spiri-
tous liquor license therein, even though
the latter was not issued until after the
light wine and beer license was issued
in the first instance

captain Wooley of the bark Sebastian
Bach took a board of surveyors out TO
the vessel this afternoon to have a re-
port made as to how much repairing
she needs. The vessel is leaking con-
stantly but a windmill on board keeps
pace with the leak and she is quite safe.
She is at anchor in water so clear that
the anchor and chain can be seen lying
on the ocean bed. The whole bottom
OF the vessel is easily visible from
the surface of the water and the cap /.

NO PLAGUE CASES REPORTED
TODAY.
DR.. Wood Notifies Consuls of Three
Deaths Yesterday, Making Fifty
Three Since Outbreak.

Today-Plague deaths, 0; plague
cases, 0; suspicious cases, 0.
Yesterdays storm of plague cases
seems to have been followed by the
usual calm; for no suspicious cases
had been reported up to a late hour.
Were it not that the three cases of yes
terday were separate and apparently
Independent of each other it would be
felt that the beginning of another
short rest was at hand.
Early this afternoon DIR. Wood sent
the Following letter to the various con-
suls of the city;
Honolulu, H. l., February 90 1900.
Sir:-I beg to report as follows:
Number of deaths from bubonic
plague already reported so; number do
since last report, 3. Total to date SO.
Particulars of the three additional
deaths are as follows:
Mary Kaaihue, Hawaiian Chinese,
female, aged "a. Died February 10,
1900. From Queen street opposite
Board of Health office.
All Chong, Chinese, male, aged "a.
Died February 10, 1900. From King
street near Waikiki road.
All Hung, Chinese, male, aged a..
Died February 10, 1900 at pest house.
Formerly worked at Hotel stables.
Respectfully yours,
President Board of Health.
A gentleman has big kick about
the way the quarantine of the house
near Waikiki turn was carried on.
Late yesterday he saw the Chinese
from the store sitting on the bench in
front with the guard chatting with that
important functionary. This morning
the same bench was occupied by chill
dren from the outside, also being en-
tertained by the friendly guard.
DR.. Hoffman states that the Chinese
boy, All Cum, is not in as bad condi-
tion as has been reported. He says
that the little fellow will shortly be all
right and that there will be no trouble
with his legs.
Maurice Walton, one of the players
of the Janet Waldorf Company who
stopped over here, is now a marine
guard under the Board of Health. Mr..
Morton has been transferred to the
wharf end of the freight business and
Mr.. Mayfield is handling the office end
of the same work.

THE ORPHEITM

The program this week proves an in
teresting one. The opening farce OF
Hector is a very clever little comedy
abounding in bright sayings and funny
situations. 1t was presented in a clean
and snappy manner that speaks well
for the talent of the Orpheum Stock
Company.
Antonio Pirri changed his program
and produced a most acceptable tumb-
ling act. Miss Blanche Gale made a
success on her initial appearance, look
ing very natty in her male attire. The
Richards with an artistic colored
makeup execute a neat turn of med
leys and dances. Colonel Rodgers again
proved his popularity and the closing
sketch was ably handled by Lovette
Rockwell and Allan Dunn.

AN EDITORS LIFE SAVED BY
CHAMBERLAIN'S COUGH
REMEnV

During the early part of October,
1896, contracted bad cold which set
tied on my lungs and was neglected un-
til 1 feared that consumption had ap-
peared in an incipient state I was
constantly coughing and trying to ex-
pei something which could not. I be-
came alarmed and after giving the To-
cal doctor a trial bought a bottle Of

result was immediate improvement,
and after 1 had used three bottles my
lungs were restored to their healthy

AT THE RELIEF CAMPS.
First Sewers in Honolulu at Camp
No. 2.

There are now 531 people at Relief
Camp No. 2, on Vineyard street, and
there will soon be provision for 500 or
200 more. The sewer system of this
camp is now practically completed and
the nrst sewers in Honolulu, or al least
the first that are to be a part of the
general sewer system, will be used in
connection with this camp.
The capacity of the camp at present
is full. Those there are all Chinese
and Japanese who have either means
or employment, and are simply pro-
Vided with homes. No rations are is
sued. Nearly all the Chinese and a
large proportion of the Japanese are
families. There are very few single
men.
At Relief Camp No. 1, on Punchbowl
street, there are about $50 people. Food
as well as homes is furnished here, but
the number of people fed is constantly
decreasing, the effort being to cut down
the number to whom food is furnished.
Employment is being found for a good
many, but just at present there are
more applicants for labor than there is
labor to supply.

RESCUED FROM A MOB.

There was an exciting time on
Punchbowl last night Two men, Le-
pont and August, somewhat under the
influence of liquor called at house oc-
cupied by a Portuguese family. The
general repute of the men was such
that as soon as it became known that
they had called at this house a crowd
of the neighbors gathered and started
in pursuit of the men, with the inten-
ton of thrashing them soundly. The
two men We're rescued just i'm time t.
save them from violence by the mount
ed patrol. They were charged with
drunkenness at the police station, but
were afterwards bailed out. This morn
ing they failed to appear and their bail
was forfeited.

LOT OF HOUSES BURNED THIS
MORNING.
Several at Corner of Punchbowl and
Sea Wall and One on Queen-Houses
at Waikiki Turn.

The fire department has had another
busy day. First thing this morning the
house occupied by Mary Kaaihui, back
of the United States naval reservation,
was destroyed. 1t was a small place
and was quickly in ashes. The house
belonged to Fritz Wilhelm. From there
attention was given to small outbuild-
ings on the premises.
The next place fired was the big
house in the large yard at the foot of
Punchbowl street, Eva side, and the
stables near the sea well. The house
was owned by the Bishop Estate and
was occupied by H. Jouen, the lock-
smith. 1t was fired inside from which
the flames spread to the roof and
thence down to the ground.
The quarantined district there eX-
tended from Punchbowl street along
the sea wall to the crooked alleyway
on the town side of Lieutenant Gus
Roses residence, taking in that and the
Robertson house next door. All the
people were moved from there. The
line came to the yard of Rebecca Pa
nee's house and did not take it in,
though that was the first intention.
The young lady is therefore not in
quarantine, as reported yesterday.
From these premises the department
went to the house occupied by the
South Sea Island plague victim of De-
cember 10 and burned it. There Is
something remarkable about this build
ing. Following the death of the old
man twenty-seven people were quaran-
tined there and not single case of
plague developed. There was a chance
and a fear, however, that the infection
may have spread from it to other prem
ises in the neighborhood. The house
stood directly in rear of the old Gibson
homestead.
The premises near the corner of King
street and Waikiki road are being ap-
praised and will be burned but will
hardly be gotten at today.
