oBsTRUCrING THE STREETS.

Considerable complaint has been
made over street blockading on
Kilauea and Kekuanaoa streets. Now
that Fort street has been torn Up by
the sewer contractors the traffic which
passed over that thOroughfare has pc
come cOngested and in order to faclli-
tate travel many teamsters thought
that by going around and up Kilauea or
Kakuanaoa streets to Halekauwila
streets they could save time.
They claim that instead of finding the
streets open to travel, quantities of
lumber wagons and various obstrhc-
lions were left in the street and it was
impossible for more than one team to
pass at a time. The use of the streets
by either the lumber company or pri-
vate parties is in violation of the law
which prohibits the streets being block
AIDED by leaving goods longer than an
hour. 1t is said that some of the OBJ
structions have remained for weeks at
a time in the streets. A similar fault
is found with Edinburg streets where
nearly dozen wagons lie idle at the
side OF the road.

PAUOA WATER RIGHTS DO NoID
MATTER NOW.
All Chock and All Ham Lay Aside
Hachets and Appear in the Police
Court as Friends.

All Chock and All Ham have made
up their quarrel over the Pauoa valley
water rights proposition and now after
nearly killing one another with hatch
cts they are friends again. Both are
very old Chinese and both were badly
used up in the encounter that resulted
in the arrest of All Chock.
When the case Of All ChOck was call
ed in the police court this morning an
aged Chinaman, with bandage on his
head and with his shirt all over blood
and one foot done up in rags limped
forward AMI stood before the judge. He
was the defendant. Those who saw him
wondered what the complaining witness
would be like.
The complaining witness appeared i'm
the rear of the courtroom. He was also
well bandaged up. He was older ana
smaller than All Chock. He wanted to,
drop the case.
The two Chinese are life long friends
1t was explained, and had lived in peace
with taro patches close together for
many years, until shortage of water
made a breach between them. Then
they got hatchets and went for each
other.
Judge Wilcox looked out of the vim
! dow and observed that heavy rains
were falling in Pauoa valley, while the
! two old Cinnamon who had so vigor-
ously used hatchets on one another a
3 rev Gays ago leIt Jne courtroom To-
gether both limping and sore and BAN
daged.
The water rights question is not SET
tied yet. Whether All Chock or AhI
Ham has 4 right to the stream that re-
Gently proved only adequate for the.
taro of one CT them, is as much a ques--
ton as ever, but rains have fallen and
now the stream will do for both. There
fore they do not need to quarrel about
it any more till dry season comes
again.

PORTUGUESE CELEBRATE.
Observe Tcnth Anniversary Arrival OF
Their Missionaries.


The tenth anniversary of the arrival
of the Portuguese missionaries in Ho-
nolulu was celebrated last night at the
Portuguese Protestant church. There
was a large attendance and the live
lest interest was taken in the program
Rev. A. V. Soares spoke of the hard
task which the missionaries had when
they first arrived. The people did not
take kindly to the efforts of the mis-
sionaries to convert them and for sew
eral years showed the liveliest oppose
ton. Often the missionaries were
stoned and subjected to insults and
other abuse. As the result of the lab
ors of the missionaries the church peo-,
pie now have a press of their own, q.
well equipped school, capable teachers
a permanent mission at Hilo and mis-
sions on Maui and at Kohala The out
look was indeed bright the speaker
thought but there must be entire con-
secration and complete unity of spirit
on the part of the workers to insure
success.
]. b. Atherton gave an interesting ac-
count of the history of the establish
ment of the missions. The first Pro-
testaEt Portuguese missionaries to
come to the Islands were Revs. E. NJ
Pires, r. X. Baptiste and A. V. Soares-
At the time of their arrival a Sunday
school was the only thing of a Profess
tant nature among the Portuguese here
The Miller stree chapel was built four
months after their arrival. -Four years
later the church now used was built tO'
accommodate the large congregation.
Rev. r. X. Baptiste who is in charge
of the mission at Hilo was present ana
spoke of the early work connected with
the establishment of the missions. Ad--
dresses were also made by Rev. E. G..
Silva, of Maui, A. F. Cooke, Rev. E. S..
Timoteo, Rev. F. c. Damon, and A. H.
r. Vieira. There was scriptual reading
by Rev. Lesdingham, scriptural read
ing in Portuguese by Rev. Silva, a solo
by Miss Hyde and singing by a chorus

FAULKNER HERE.
Says Work on TOpeka's New Gas
Plant Win Commence
Sept. L.

Mr. W. J. Faulkner. the Chicago man,
who proposes to give Topeka gas at rea-
sonable rates, arrived in Topeka at noon
today. His visit is for the purpose of ar
ranging some details in regard to stock
with the officers Of the company, and he
will return to Chicago tomorrow.
Mr.. Faulkner made the important state
ment this afternoon that he expected to
break ground for the Topeka plant by
September l.
I am at present busy looking after the
establishment of a plant at a big manu-
featuring works in an Indiana city about
the size of Topeka This plant 1 expect
to have completed and in operation by the
middle of July, and it will stand as a
practical demonstration of our method.
Gas will be furnished for fuel, which is
the seVerest test the method can be put
to. As, soon as this plant is in operation,
the financing of the Topeka plant, which
is now wen under way, will be completed.

OPEN DOOR FARCE.
Secretary Hay Hasn't Accom-
plished Anything in
That Line.

New York, June 13.-While they adj
nit that the open door, negotiations
are not as conclusive as Secretary Hay
desired, officials of the administration
point out that a long step toward the
preservation of American treaty rights
IN the spheres of influence in China
has at least been taken
Secretary Hay declined to discuss the
doubts cast upon the success Of the
negotiations in an article printed in
the National Review written by Mr.
Robert A. Yerburg, NJ. P. A European
diplomat well informed of every stage
of the negotiations and thoroughly ac-
qua1nted with Chinese affairs said to-
day that the general conclusions
reached by Mr.. Yerburg were prac-
tically those of every diplomat who had
taken pains to study the notes ex-
changed.
That the agreement reached is not
'lronclad" was apparent not only to
members of the diplomatic corps but
to administra ton officials after the re-
ceipt of the replies of foreign govern
ments to the American representation
The assertion has been made that Great
Britain complied in every respect with
the wishes of Secretary Hay The dip
lomat who discussed the matter points
out that this is not the case.
i have much pleasure in informing
your excellency," Lord Salisbury's note
stated, that her maJesty's government
in the sense desired by your government
in relation to the leased territory of
Wei-Hai-Wei and all territory in China
which may hereafter be acquired by
Great Britain. Directly north of Wei
all spheres of influence now held, or
which may hereafter be held by her in
China, provided that similar declara-
ton is made by the other powers con-
cerned.''
1t is this provision which is an OBJ
stacle in the way of complete success
of negotiations. Russia declined to ac-
eede to the proposition advanced by
Great Britain. Directly north of Wei
Hai-Wei and jutting into the Gulf of
Pc Chi Ii is Port Arthur, now a Rus
sian stronghold. It is believed in dip
lomatic circles that Lord Salisbury
made his declaration respecting Wei
Hai-Wei for the purpose of inducing
Russia to throw Port Arthur open to
the world. 1t has been noted that no
reference to Port Arthur is made in
the Russian note.
A comparison of the British and Rus
sian notes will show their great dis
similarity, and neither can be regarded
as binding when the proposals are so
different AS Germany, France, Japan
and italy gave assurances on condition
it is evident that the whole fabric of
the open door" is likely to be torn

IGNORANCE OF LAW
Secures Mitigation of Penalty in This
Case.

Washington, June 1S.-Newspaper re-
ports just received at the war depart
ment show that three natives were con-
victed by military commission of hav-
ing murdered Quartermaster Sergeant
Albert Voltaire, company K, Thirty
ninth volunteer infantry, at the bar
racks of Bagbag near Tanuan in the
province of Betangas on February 2,
and were sentenced to death by hang
ing.
In passing upon the case Gen. Otis. as
the final reviewing authority said that
the findings of the commission were full
" sustained by the evidence and that
the death sentence imposed by it had
the express sanction Of the laws of war.
He was however unwilling to direct the
execution of the sentence as he believed
that the accused were Influenced to
commit the crime of which they were
convicted by local guerrilla chiefs, VINO
he said, were the principal criminals in
the affair Moreover, he said the pris-
oners were ignorant Of the legal conse-
quences of their act. Therefore he COM
muted the sentence in each case to 20
years Imprisonment at hard labor in the
Preside de Manila.
1.-The c1emency herein exercised said
Gen. Otis, will not be considered pre-
oedent to guide or influence the future
proceedings of military commissions IN
cases of such gravity as the present one
and the occasion is taken to announce
that in the judicial determination on
questions of guilt which involve respon-
sibility for the awful taking of human
life, the full rigor of the law viii be in
ffcted when rightfully invoked by legal
w constituted courts
