bo permitted TO operate under tho
sanction OF the Kansas laws. Within
the past few weeks half dozen Of
these enterprises have made application
for charters, They have all been held

operations, Up to date nothing has
been found in their plan OF work that
entities them TO u charter under the

cations will be denied, Some time ago
the board issued charters 10 two con-

on the original amount set aside, and
the remainder of the fund can be dis
tributed by the Chickasaw nation,

THE HOGAN DAMAGE CASE
an TRIAL TODAY BEFORE JUDGE
DAVIS.
Spits That Involve Nearly Half Million
/. Dollars-Jury-Mr Swanzy on the
Witness stand.

The big damage case of the Hogan
nlthstreis against the Canadian Austria
-Hah Steamship Company is on in full
swing in Judge Davis court at the Jun
dietary building. At noon a recess was
taken to 1 o'clock, when the bearing
was resumed.
There was considerable difficulty in
getting jury when the case was first
called this morning. Kinney, BalIou
and McCianahan appeared for the
minstrels, and Robertson for the steam
ship company, and both sides carefully
questioned each man called to the jury
box The following finally were adjudg-
ed satisfactory and were sworn: L. c..
Ables, w. M. Cunningham, 1. Ruben
stein, H. zerbe, John ]. Egan, Gus
Schuman, G. B. Gray, F, S. Lyman, A.
d. Earnach c. j. Ludwigsen, T. Wolfe
and j. d. Tregloan.
+. M. Swanzy was the first witness
called. Although the managing direc-
tor of Theo. H. Davies & Co., agents
for the defendant, he was put on by the
plaintiffs. This Witness stated in effect
that@the acceptance or refusal of pas
sengers was in the hands of the captain
of a steamer and that the agents had
no control over such matters.
Late in the morning the Miowera ar
rived in port. 1t was her captain thai
failed TO take the Hogan's to Victoria
and he was promptly subpoenaed as g
witness. TheepRrser on the last trip OF
the MiOwera, Jeff the vessel at Van
couver, and a new man was in his place
| today. He was subpoenaed to appear
I at l o'clock to testify in regard to the
number of passengers taken from here
| last time, and the capacity of the vessel
| AS the Miowera will leave at O'Clock
this evening, the captains testimony
! will also be taken this afternoon.
! 1t is the opinion of those most inter.
ested that the case will be on at leas
| two days, and probably more, as a very
| large number of witnesses are to bt
/ examined in each. Mr.. SwanZy was thu
only witness called this morning.

CHEERS FOR THE PRINCE
JAPANESE CELEBRATE A ROYAL
WEDDING.
Message of Congratulation to be Sent
Through the Consul to Yoshishito and
His Bride.

ITO the Crown Prince and Princess
The Japanese residents of Hawaii, III
mass meeting assembled, send their
congratulations, with earnest wishes
for happiness, prosperity and long life.
TX. j. IMANISHI, Chairman"
The above message is to be sent
through Consul Mkt Saito to Crown
Prince Yoshishito and his bride, via the
steamer Coptic, which is to leave here
for Japan on the 18th. The message
was read at the meeting held last night
in the Japanese school grounds to cele-
brate the marriage of the crown prince,
and was adopted as the sentiment of
all who attended.
over a thousand Japanese were pres
ent to do honor to the occasion. The
school grounds were Illuminated with
Japanese lanterns, and the scene was a
very beautiful one when Chairman
Imanishi appeared on the platform.
Captain Berger's band was present, and
added much to the enjoyableness of the
evening by furnishing an excellent pro-
gram of music, in which the Japanese
anthem and other Japanese compost
tions had prominent places.
| Addresses were delivered by Imanishi,
p. Matsuda, S. Kimura and Y. Soga,
editor of the Hawaii Shinpo. All the
! speeches We're full of expressions of
| good will for the crown prince, and of
! patriotic sentiments. The speakers
We're loudly applauded and the program
| ended with cheers for the prince and
princess and the emperor Many Am
! orleans and Hawaiians were present
among the Japanese. After the program
hadubeen completed refreshments were
| served.
The Grown Prince Yoshishito was
married on the 10th, the bride being
Princess Sada, whose age is not fifteen,
as has been stated, but seventeen, ac-
oording to Japanese computation. The
Japanese, like the Americans who think
this is the twentieth century, begin by
calling their children one year old right
away. r.,
Prominent LOCAL Japanese are disposed
TO resent published statement that
| polygamy prevails in the imperial
household, and declare such statements
are an insult to the nation. The en-
gagement of the crown prince and prin-
cess was announced in American OF
English fashion, on February 16, and
the marriage is declared to be as bind
ing and complete as any American mar
riage.

THE FOREIGN STEAMERS
MAY CONTINUE TO CALL HERE
AS USUAL.
Japanese Ready With a New Line if
They DO Not-What Foreign Boats
May Do.

No advices have yet been received
by Hackfeld q Company that the Brit
ish and Japanese steamers of the Occi-
dental and Oriental and Togo Kisen
IS aisha lines will cease to call at Ho-
nolulu after June 10. The company
has announced simply that the vessels
Will not take passengers or cargo from
here to the Coast. 1t is considered
likely that they viii continue to. make
Honolulu port of call on their way
to the Orient, as there is nothing to
prevent them from doing business be-
tween here and ports of China and Jap
an.
The Japanese Merchants Union
which exists both here and in Japan
has plans under consideration for start
ing a steamship line of it's own, to run
between Honolulu and Yokohama, if
the o. & o. and Togo Kisen boats cease
to call at Honolulu. There is estimated
to be about a thousand dollars a month
in the freight and passenger business
between Honolulu and Chinese and
Japanese ports. Is. j. Imanishi, mana
ger of the Yokohama Specie Bank, stat
ed this morning that the new line would
be prepared to put steamers on by June
10, If the other companies should de-
eide that their steamships shall not
stop at Honolulu.
If the foreign steamers are taken Off
it will cause an entire change in the
years time tables as made out by the
various steamship companies. The stop
here means about four days time To
the steamers on the run from Yoko-
hama to San Francisco, on account
of the distance they go out of the short
est route and the delay here. The
business is mostly steerage passengers
Chinese and Japanese going home and
coming from their own countries, and
oriental freight shipped here.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS HOGAN WANTS
PROBABLE END OF THE KAMALo
MUDDLE.
Notice Served on Stockholders That If
They DO Not Pay by Monday, This
Course will be Taken.

Kinney, Ballou & McClanahan have
served notice on the stockholders that
IL delinquencies are not paid by 10
o'clock Monday morning steps will at
once be taken to put the plantation
into bankruptcy.
The stockholders will have tonight to
consider the matter and 1t will be the
first topic to be discussed at the meet
ing in Foster hall. There is a conten-
ton among the holders that the planta-
tion cannot be thrown into bankruptcy
and at the same time they refuse or
neglect to pay their assessments to
keep it going
The attorneys are very firm in their
stand and say they are tired of the
monkeying of the past several months.
SO far as they are concerned the no.
tice is final and the steps indicated
Will undoubtedly be taken unless some-
thing is done.
The committee which returned last
week. reports that Kamalo is one of
the finest of plantation sites and that
Its prospects are of the very best. At
present, however not enough holders
are in good standing to make a quorum
at meeting.
Bankruptcy proceedings will be based
on an unpaid bill for pumping ma

CANADIAN LINER MIowERA IN
PORT AGAIN
Captain Hemming and Purser Carpen-
ter Immediately Summoned to Appear
in Court in Minstrel Damage Case.

One of the first to go on board the
steamship Miowera when she docked at
the Pacific Mail wharf at eleven O'Clock
this morning was a police officer, with,
summonses for Captain Hemming and
the purser of the vessel to appear in
court and testify in the case of the
Hogan minstrels against the company
which owns the Miowera. The Miowera
is the steamer which refused to take
the minstrels to the Coast on her last
trip up and Captain Hemming was In
charge of her then. There is a new
purser this trip, however 1t is Purser
Carpenter now. A summons was
served on him, nevertheless, as purser
of the steamer, and he will have to
appear in court and tell what he knows,
If anything, about why the darky min
strels were compelled to make happy
homes in Honolulu for several weeks
longer than they wanted to. With the
summonses the officers were handed the
munificent sum of one dollar, for ex-
penses up town and back.
The Miowera left Vancouver early on
! the morning of the 4th of May, ana
| should have had some later news than
has reached here by steamers from San
Francisco. In the matter of news, how
ever the Miowera was "slow" this trip
! People who went after war news were
able to gather that Ladysmith was re-
/ lieved, and that Roberts had Bloemfon-
( tein, and was sending troops to Pre-
! toria The Miowera leaves for the Col
! Onies at 10 o'clock this evening.
