TURK AND LEWIS FINED.
Shipping Masters Guilty Of Assault
on McCarty.

In the case of Lewis & Turk, charged
with assault and battery ON ]. Me-
Carly, alias Gray was finished in the
Police Court yesterday afternoon.
Judge Wilcox found the men guilty and
sentenced them each to pay fine Of
$50 and costs. The testimony of the
prosecution showed conclusively that
Lewis and Turk assaulted McCarty
first and then the latter tried to de-
fend himself. The best witness for the
prosecution was native boat boy who
saw the whole occurrence and who,
try as Attorney Andrews would to mix
him up, stuck to his story until the
lawyer gave 1t up as bad job and al
lowed linn to descend fiom the witness
stand.
This witness stated that Lewis struck
the first blow. Turk then jumped In
and the three men went out into the
street. Turk then caught McCarty by
the neck, punched his face and then
knocked him down. This done he
kicked his man while he was down.
Attorney Andrews asked the native
how 1t was that such short man as
Turk could possibly get such tall
man as McCarty by the neck and this is
the answer he gave:
II am surprised you do not know
that, when man attempts to defend
himself as McCarty did, he does not
stand erect but bends forward" At
torney Andrews had nothing more to
say on that point
When McCarty took the stand, he
tried to prove INN q man of question:
able character, One OF his questions
was: Were you not shot In the leg
In San Francisco?" At this point, At
torney Henshall, representing The
prosecution, made objection, Andrews
answered that he was trying TO show
that the testimony Of the witness could
not be believed, Judge Wilcox remark
ed that he could not for the life OF him
see how a shot In McCarty's leg could
affect his truthfnlness.

NEGRO FAMILIES TOHAWAII

New Orleans. La, Aug. 6.-J. b. Col
Inns and John Hind, Hawaiian sugar
planters, reached New Orleans two
days ago on a mission to secure negro
labor for the Hawaiian sugar fields.
The gentlemen have already begun
work and several negro families of
Monroe, La, have decided to risk the
trip. The planters will visit several
Southern States. They are careful in
selecting their darkies, picking only
young negroes with small families.
They have refused to sign any city
negroes on the ground that the blacks
in the cities are of lower moral stan
dard and impregnated with the anar-
chist ideas which inspired the mur-
derer Robert Charles in his recent hor-
rible crimes In New Orleans. The ne
groes under contract to Messrs. Hind
and Collins are promised 500 per
month in Hawaii and they will have to
reimburse by slow payments half their
their transportation or $50. They will
be given houses and gardens to work.
Mr.. Collins before going to Honolulu
nine months ago, was Louisiana's
State Chimest and one of the experts
at the Audubon Sugar Experiment sta
ton. The gentlemen will also secure
negroes In Porto Rico.

case the troops advance the Chinese

allies should be allowed to enter Pc
king in order to escort the Ministers TO
Tien Tsin is absolutely impossible"
This Is the dictum of Ii Hung Chang.
II was transmitted last evening to Will
liam Pritchard Morgan, member Of
Parliament, by his agent at Shanghai.
The agent had carried to Earl Ii a
message from Mr.. Morgan, urging that
the allied troops-be allowed to enter
the capital, and stating that a settle
ment could be made at Tien Tsin,
whereby a war of the world against
China would be averted; but even the
optimistic Ii failed to hold out the
slightest hope of its feasibility, al
though he reiterated to Morgan's agent
his declaration that the Ministers nad
left Picking, fixing the date Of their
departure as August I'd.
These messages have been sent to
Lord Salisbury, ACCOMPANIED by {.
statement by Morgan, urging that the
allies should take no step to endanger
the lives of the Ministers.
A message from the Belgian Minis
ter, dated Picking, August I'd, seems eff
fectually to dispose of the rumors that
the Ministers have either left or are
intending to leave Picking.
The Chinese Minister in London, Sii
Chin Chin Lo Feng Luh, says he has
received a telegram from China an.
nouncing that a long imperial edict was
issued on August I'd, authorizing the
immediate and safe conveyance of all
Europeans in Picking to Tien Tsin.
