TOM BOWMAN HAS BRONCHIAL
PNEUMONIA.
Character Of His Ailment Officially An
nounced by Specialists This Morning
Routine.

Tom bowman, the negro taken from
the drill shed yesterday afternoon to
the plague hospital, has no plague. This
has been definitely concluded by Drs.
Hoffman and Garvin.
The case was the subject of consid-
cradle concern yesterday. The man
had a very high temperature and the
doctors were in doubt as to his trouble.
1t was never announced as a suspicious
case, but uneasiuess was felt. For
this reason the patient was removed TO
the plague hospital.
The specialists agree that bronchial
pneumonia is the trouble. The ailment
is accentuated by the effects of an acci-
dent at the wharves some days ago.
bowman was one of the labor gang
of the Health Board in Chinatown dur
ing the main quarantine. Subsequently
he worked on the eXcavator scows, then
was idle, and a short time ago became
steVedore. 1t was while working IN
the latter capacity that he was hurt.
Mrs. Franz, j. H. Hartman and the
other recovered plague patients have
been released from Kalihi camp, and
are in town. All appear to have Jared
well, for they look in good shape. Jap
anese and natives have also left the
camp, only two Japanese women, suf-
fering of typhoid fever, remaining
there.
None of the inspectors reported any
thing of interest this morning. The
Board of Health is now satisfied that
the end has been reached. The thir-
teenth day since the last death has
passed, and it is fifteen days since the
case was quarantined.

THE PORT STEPHENS HERE
COMES FROM HILO TO GET
COAL.
Thought to be the China When Sighted.
Prospect of Many Arrivals Keeps
Customs Men Busy.

The transport Port Stephens, Captain
Whitehead, arrived this morning from
Seattle, via Hilo. She had been at Hilo
for sight days. giving the stock she
carried a rest shore, and came here
to get coal. After getting the coal she
needs she, will go On to Manila. The
Port Stephens was sighted ten miles
southwest soon after IL o'clock and was
at first thought to be the China and
later the Ben Mohr, which is expected
from San Francisco with stores for the
Philippines.
The Port Stephens is one of the larg-
est of the stock transports. The last
time she was here put in distress, hav-
ing started for Manila by the northern
route and encountered a storm that
killed thirteen of her horses and mules.
There was a lot of work in sight for
the custom house boarding officers this
afternoon. A bark and barkentine were
reported from Diamond Head and the
China was expected to show up at any
moment. The Warrimoo due tomor-
row from the Colonies, is also likely to
put in an appearances before morning.
so that the officers will have to be on
the watch all night
Captain Whitehead decided to keep
the Port Stephens in quarantine as
much as possible. He will not have
communication with the shore any
more than is necessary. Though he
is bound for Manila, where there is
more plague than Honolulu ever had,
he is looking out for a good bill of
health from here. The transport was
boarded by President Wood of the
Board of Health.

DROUGHT ANDLANCDURTS
WATER RIGHT DISPUTES FEWER
THAN EXPECTED.
Meteorological Conditions and Records
Not Borne Out by the Expected
Amount of Litigation.

The meteorological reports show that
the drought of the past year or so has
been tn most severe for a quarter of a
century, but the civil and criminal court
records do not bear out the government
meteorologist.
About nine years ago there was a
drought that did not nearly come up
to the proportions of the present one
as shown by the figures of scarcity Of
rainfall. But for months the figures of
litigation both civil and criminal grow
ing out of quarrels and squabbles over
water rights, precipitated by the short
age of supply, went far beyond any
thing the present has produced. That
year there was at least one murder,
and innumerable assault cases that had
their origin in the failure of the nor
NAL rainfall and for year water right
litigation crowded the calendars of the
civil courts.
So far the drought of the past months
has only produced one assault case of
any serious character for the district
court to. handle besides a few disor-
derly cases which hardly rose to the
dignity of indications of any meteoro-
logical conditions, and only a very few
civil cases one of which is on trial now
in the circuit court, arising out of a
dispute over water rights in Manoa val
ley The case in question is Lum All
Lee, ct al. VS.. All Soong, ct al, bill for
Injunction.
The paucity Of litigation under con-
ditions when so much might ordinarily
be expected has become a matter of
discussion, and in a mild, unspOken
way, of regret among lawyers. 1t is
largely accounted for by supposing that
the large increase in the number of ar
tesian wells, has reduced in some de-
gree the dependence on the water from
the streams of the valleys, and has CIV
more general and equitable supply.
Still all hope has not been abandoned
that there may yet be some good wa
ter right litigation with fat fees come
forth to devour the lean kline of the
many months of drought and lawyers
who are interested and expectant have
already discovered some legal points in
the matter which have not yet been ad-
! Judicated by the supreme court One
of these is whether the owner OF a right
to take a proportion of the water II
Q stream the location OF whose right Il

right to an owner lower down the

same terms. or whether the two must

to the proportions they are entitled t.
take no ma tier whether there is enough

lis NOT A PLAGUE PATIENT A FATAL FIGHT At HNOSNS FOR HALF MILLION
HoGANs MINsTRELs WANT A BIG
PILE.
Twenty-Five Iibels Against Canadian
Australian Steamship Company
Suits Being Prepared.

The damage suit of the Hogan min
strels against the Canadian Australian
Steamship Company win involve about
a half million dollars. The exact fig
ures may be $5S0,00 or $4,000 for each
of the twenty y-nine people in the COM
bination.
This afternoon Kinney, Baliou e Nc
Clanahan are fixing up twetny-nine
complaints, each of the persons named
bringing a separate suit. 1t will take
two or three days to get them all fixed
and signed. The suits will be brought
against the company and will be served
on Theo. H. Davies & Co, the local
agents. The Hogan minstrels will wait
here until the matters are settled.
The most important new contention
of the minstrels is that the Miowera
had ample room for them. Fhey say
that the vessel had thirty cabin, TWEEN
ty-seVen second class and five steerage
passengers, and could have taken hun
dred' or two more. Mr.. Hogan still feels
sure that he was imposed upon by the
captain of the ship.
The suit will be a very big one and
will Involve a great deal of time and
expenditure of money on both sides.
The local agents of the steamship
company are not blamed by the Hogans
especially, it appearing that they tried
to get the minstrels away. The compa-
ny had through steerage tickets from
Sydney to Victoria, and wanted to pay
the additional money and secure cabin
passage from here.

70 RELIEVE THE FAMINE
SAN FRANCISCO SHIPPERS GET
BITTEN.
Took Tip to Send Potatoes to Homo
lulu and Overdid It-Some Heavy
Losses by Shippers.

When the Australia arrived in San
Francisco last time some one circulated
tip that there was big money in
sending potatoes to Honolulu. Pota-
toes were worth three cents a pound
in the Paradise of the Pacific, It was
reported, and every shrewd merchant
made preparations to send some spuds
here. The spuds arrived on the Aus
tralta, but the shippers will be more
than astonished when they get returns.
In fact some of them may not get any
returns at all.
The San Francisco merchants seem
to have sat up nights making out ship
ping orders for potatoes. Their deliY-
cry wagons lined up at the wharf where
the Australia was and fought for the
privilege of getting on board some of
the Irish staples that were to be so pre-
cious when they got to Honolulu.
Freight offerings are of all kinds are
very large in San Francisco now, but
the potato men got the right of way
and paid for it.
Every dealer in Honolulu has pota-
| toes now. The Australia has been
dumping them on the Oceanic wharf
ever since she got here. Some of them
are sprouting and some fresh as if the
San Francisco merchants had hurried
off whatever they could get together
so as to get in on the soft snap at HO-
nolulu. At the ruling prices today they
will not get any more net than the cost
| of the freight here.
Potatoes have sold in Honolulu re-
Gently for as much as $3.50 per sack
| Now they are worth about six bits The
man who had the tip at San Francisco
gave it to too many people. Tomorrow
d. G. Camarinos, who got some of the
| heaviest shipments, will hold an auc-
| ton sale of potatoes. He says he has
rather more than enough to last his
customers till the next lot comes along.
The potato famine is thoroughly re-
! lieved now, but another may soon de-
! Velop. The next time San Francisco
! gets word that Honolulu people are
crying for potatoes at three dollars a
sack, the commission men will not be
in such a hurry to send consignments.
It is estimated that one firm will lose
$4OO on its shipment to Honolulu.

Throat Cut.


A row over the hiring of horse at
Hilo last Monday resulted In the killing
of young German named Schwartz by

being completely severed. He died al
most at once.
Both the young men are well known
at Hilo.
The news of the killing was received
this afternoon on the steamer Mika-
hala, which arrived at about half past
two o'clock. 1t is reported that
Schwartz made the first attack on Man
ues. The men had a long quarrel, both
having been drinking, it is stated, and
the man who lost his life began the
fighting. Suddenly Manues got hold of
his knife, and in a moment he had
plunged it into the Germans throat. II
was a large pocketknife. and cut clean
through the windpipe. Manues has beer
