SUSPECT B)MBTHRONERS
TWO MEN ARRESTED AND UNDER
INvESTIATIoN.
One of Them Has a Groundless Griev-
ance Against Consul Canavarro,
Thought to Have Unbalanced Mind.

AS was stated yesterday, two men
suspected of the attempt against the
life and property of Consul General
Canavarro. These two men were ar
rested yesterday afternoon by the mar
shal, and are now in custody, booked
for investigation. One of them is Lulz
G. Camara, and the other A. G.. Refs.
Refs owns some property in Eva. He
was there last Wednesday and the dep
uty sheriff at that place overheard a
conversation between the two men in
which Canavarro was condemned and
the expression was used, "the sooner
he is blown up the better" The two
men have a room on Miller street, near
the Queens Hospital. This was search
ed, but nothing discriminating them was
found
Consul Canavarro strongly suspects
the two men under arrest. In fact, one
of them has threatened him repeatedly
before, and, apparently, without cause.
Some time ago this fellow had case
in court. For some reason of his own
he accused Consul Canavarro and other
prominent Portuguese of having bought
up all the lawyers so that he could not
be properly represented at court.
"I had nothing whatever to do with
the matter" says the CONSUL further
than that took the customary interest
in the case, and never attempted to in
fluence it one way or the other"
At any rate the matter preyed on the
mind of the present prisoner until he
apparently became unbalanced. The
second man arrested is a friend of the
former, and a sort of hanger on of
his. He is more of a crank than the
principal, or supposed principal. Mr..
Canavarro says that both have been
subjects of his charity at various times.
The entire Portuguese colony seems
convinced that the two men now held
are the perpetrators of the outrage, and
the people are greatly worked up over
it. Expressions of sympathy for Mr..
Canavarro are universal. At the same
time the evidence thus for is circum-
stantial. and something stronger will
have to be found before a conviction is

THE FIRST MONTHS WORK
WHAT 1NCURABLE HOSPITAL HAS
DONE.
Total of Fifty-three Poor Sufferers are
Cared For-Some Were Cured-Eight

At a meeting of the directors of the
Victoria Hospital for Incurables held
yesterday afternoon, DIR. Bowman sub
mitted a very interesting report of the
work done. Following are the figures;

F. A. BOWMAN, M. D..
The expenditures for the month of
April have been as follows:
Salaries, $219 .65; regular expenses,
$412. Al; repairs of building and equip
ment, S356 90. Total 1888. "a.
Contributions for the maintenance of
the hospital will be gratefully received
at Bishop & Co.'S bank by the treasurer,
Mr.. S. e. Damon.
1t will be observed that quite few
cases taken in at the hospital have been
cured. This is doubly gratifying. All
the poor persons treated there We're in
eligible at the other hospitals, and the
new institution proved their only haven.
During the month there were eight
deaths-5 of consumption, of typhoid
fever, and one of cancer.

ASSASSIN DID NOT COME.
Man After Head of Leung Chi-tso is
Not in Quarantine.

Lum Chung Yee, the head hunter sent
to Hawaii by Ii Hung Chang to cut off
the cupola of Leung Chi-tso, did not
arrive by the America Maru. II is cer :

why he did not come is not known here.

SUGAR EXPORTS THIS YEAR
PLAGUE CUTS HONOLULU DOWN
ONE-HALF.
Great Increase at Other Ports Brings
the Total Nearly Up to the Record
of Last Year.

In spite of the many restrictions
which quarantine placed upon com"
merce the total sugar exports of the
islands during the first quarter of 1900
were almost equal to those of the same
three months of 1899. The port of Ho-
nolulu, where there was the most trou-
Bile, shows a decrease from III, $40, ,52S
pounds in 1899, to 1851, ,677 pounds in
1900 or q decrease of nearly half. At
all other ports there was heavy in
crease this year, including even Kahu-
lui, which had a quarantine of it's own.
The increase at other island ports than
Honolulu makes the total of this year
almost equal the last. The figures are
164S79,402 pounds in 1899 and 154, 4,4S5.O77
pounds in 1900.
The following tables show the totals
at all island ports for the first three
months of each year. in weight and

HOW TO KILL RATS.
A Suggestion Comes From Australia on
the Subject.


A lady signing herself "Ratcatcher's
Daughter has written to a Sydney
paper some suggestions as to rat catch
ing which are worth considering. She
says: IF you want to kill all your rats
at one sweep, get box, say, an old beer
case, without a lid; place It upside
down, somewhere away from the house,
say, in the garden, so that before Mr..
Rat can get in he will have to burrow,
which will please him much then make
a hole on top, to drop the baits in. and
be careful not to handle either box or
bats. Use for bait, flour, or oatmeal,
with a little sugar added, and COM
mence with little, say a cupful, and
day by day increase the feed as more
rats come. Rats are very friendly and
will bring all their friends if there is
enough. Go on feeding them for week
or two at least, and when you see that
they are numerous, give for final feed,
two parts -four. one sugar, and one
plaster of Paris, and that will be the
end of the rats You will not see any
dead ones, as they will all go for water.
If you are anxious to see them, add
little strychnine, but not too much, as
it is bitter, and they will get suspicious.
Traps are very well to catch a few, but
they soon get too cunning"

THE CONTRACT LET.

Cotton Bos. & Company were today
awarded the contract for building the
new garbage crematory. The figures of
the contract are $19595. 1t will be re-
membered that the appropriation was
$50, 900 so that the contract was let just
inside of it.
The crematory will go on the south
west corner of South and KawaiahaO
streets. This is considered the best To-
cation for many reasons, one being that
the smoke will be carried to sea. The
crematory will have a capacity for 100
tons of rubbish a day. 1t must be COM
peted in 120 DAYS

NAPOLEON AND sTAFF I'M CouRT

There was a flavor of the French
Empire in the District court calendar
this morning. There was Emil Ney, a
grandson of the first marshal of France,
charged with drunkenness, and Lui Ma
poliana, a French West India negro,
charged with assault and battery on
Ah Hung. Marshal Ney's grandson,
for the first time in his record in the
District court, acknowledged defeat and
pleaded guilty. He was fined 50 and
costs and paid it. Louis Napoleon said
"The Empire is Peace" but his name
sake, Lui Napoliana, by the charge
against him would seem to say that 1t
was assault and battery, but as he said
he was not guilty, he may also think it
is peace. His case was continued until
Tuesday morning.

EDMUND P. DOLE,
"DenutY ATTORNEY General" !"

The warrant follows the language of
the complaint, and commands the mar
shall to arrest the person named in the
warrant and bring him before Justice
Frear in chambers next Monday morn
ing at 10 o'clock, and also to summon
as witnesses the persons named in the
warrant. These witnesses are different
in different cases, but some of them
are the following:
Uyemura, Hachisuka, Fukushima,
Takahashi Yoshioka, Higuchi Okla,
Sakuma, Shigaki. Tanaha, Rev. Tok-
masa, Dol, DIR. Mitamura and HyashHI
Deputy Marshal Chillingworth made
the first arrests last night. He cap
tured nine of them, all in Iwilei. This
morning when it began to dawn on the
fraternity of Japanese pandeTers what
the movement meant, the greatest con-
sternation and excitement prevailed
Emissaries began coming to the police
station seeking interviews with those
arrested. None of them were admitted
however the Coterie arrested being
kept entirely isolated from communica-
ton with their confederates, the rule
admitting no one to see the prisoners
except their attorneys, being rigidly
enforced.
The element that seemed to cause the
greatest CONSERVATION in the proceed
ings being the fact that the complaint
called for their expulsion from the
country if they were found guilty as
charged. The fact, too, that the war;
rants were issued for the Supreme
court, and that the cases will be tried
there, also added a good deal to the
fear exhibited. by the men and their
friends, the dignity and exalted position
of the court seeming to affect them
seriously.
The work of arresting began about l
o'clock this morning At that hour
there were at the police station Marshal
Brown, Deputy Marshal Chillingworth,
Theodore Richards, w. A. Kinney, S.
NJ. Ballou f. b. McClanahan, Charles
ID. Ballard, Chester A. Doyle, Interpre-
ter Harbottle, and Officers Toma and
| Tanaka. One o'clock was selected be-
cause the women have then largely quit
for the night and have gone to their
respective conSOrts. Whenever wom-
an was found with one of the men
wanted she was brought to the station,
and closely questioned as to her rela-
tions with the man, the object being to
secure in addition to the evidence al
ready in hand the statements Of these
women taken as part of the res ges-
ia, and before they had time to plan
prevarication. 1t was o'clock before
the last of this examination was com
pleted.
| From the number of witnesses named
! in the various warrants, and the social
and professional position some of them
hold, it would seem as though those
who have begun the movement have
been working to good purpose, and are
! sure of their ground.
On the other hand it is said that the
men arrested belong to close compacts
bound by interest to support each other,
and that they have abundant funds
with which to make a hard legal fight.
The prospects are for battle royal.

A PARKHURST CAMPAIGN
WAR ON JAPANESE PANDERERs
EBEGUN.
Warrants for Thirty-one Issued by JUS

are in the police station, while the
marshal, the deputy marshal and sew
eral of the best officers of the police
force are now engaged in hunting up
and arresting the remainder.
The warrants were not sworn out in

the warrants. The complaints are made
by Deputy Attorney General f.. P.
Dole, and the warrants are returnable
before Justice Frear at 10 o'clock, Mon

The following is the form of the COM
plant in each case:
"In the Supreme court of the Hawaii
an Islands, in chambers-Republic of
Hawaii VS.. *. Murakami: To the
Honorable w. f. Frear, First Associate
Justice of said Court.
Edmund p. Dole, the lawfully ap

Attorney General of the Republic OF
Hawaii, complains that one K. Mura
kami, Japanese and foreigner by
birth, of Honolulu, in the Island of
Oahu, at Honolulu aforesaid, is and
during the six months last past, has
been, an idle person, a disorderly per-
son and a vagrant, creating disturbance

create disturbance of the peace, and
instigating others to gambling and
drunkenness.
Wherefore the deputy attorney gen
eral aforesaid, prays that the said X.
