WAS WEARING CREPE.

Now Explain to Judge Wilcox.

While passing the corner OF Nuuanu and
kukui streets last night at IL o'clock, All
on, special police officer, observed Chi
rese standing under the shadow of d tree
with bundle of cloth under his arm
The Chinese saw All on at the same in
slant and without more ado fed down
kukui street. All On took the clue and
sprinted after the man and caught up
with him within half block.
The Chinaman endeavored to get away.
but the plucky little Chinese officer held
gamely on and forced him along the
street TO the police station. The cloth
proved to be japanese crepe, four entire
pieces. The Chinese claimed he had
bought them of a Japanese for 80 cents a
piece. The cloth would probably sell for
y piece ordinarily. The Chinese gave
MS name as All Put and was recognized
by the station officers and turnkey as al
old offender in petty larceny cases. 1t Is
said An Pui was released from Oahu

All the members of the City Council ex-
cept Councilmen Negley, Bilingsley and
Higgins were before the grand jury yes
terday and reports were rife that another
phase of the Higgins case was being in
vestigated. Before the indictments were
returned against Higgins it was announced
the investiga ton would not be confined en-
tirely to that councilman, but other mat
tiers might be gone into. The councilmen
were surprised 10 be called before the
grand jury, and were reticent in express
ing the nature of the testimony they were
called to give.
1t was stated that the course of the
grand jury was to file accusations against
Higgins in the Criminal or Circuit
Court which would be in the ma
ture of Impeachment proceedings to
remove him from Office. This how
already taken initiatory steps in that di-
rection, and is the proper body to dispose

THE STRIKE IS SETTLED
ELECTRICAL WORKERS TO RECEIVE
A IL PER CENT. INCREASE.
An Agreement That Is Satisfactory TO
Both Workmen and
Contractors.

The strike of the electric workers, which
began two months ago, was settled yester-
day afternoon and the men will return to
work at a II per cent. increase In wages
Besides this, their union will hereafter be
recognized by the electrical contractors,
something that has never heretofore beer
extended to the electrical workers. The set
Element was effected in the state labor COM
missioners office at the Statehouse ano
was witnessed by State Labor Commits
sioner Schmid. The agreement was signed
by the officers of the Electrical Workers
Union and representatives of the Sanborn
Electrical Company, the Advance Electric
Company, c. w. Nickel and c. c. Hat
field, of the Indianapolis District Telegraph
Company. The agreement expires Jan. J.
1902.
BY this agreement there is not a nonunioi
electrical contracting firm in the city. II
is regarded as great victory for the
union, as it has never been recognized. Two
years ago there were not enough men in
the union to hold the charter, and now
nearly every electrician in the city belongs
to the organization. The contract is very
binding and is fair to both workmen and
not go on sympathetic strike, neither can
they strike nor can the contractors order or
maintain lockout. Grievances are to Be
submitted to board of arbitration COM
posed of two representatives of the union,
two of the contractors and fifth mem

One helper is allowed to each journeyman,

The c., H. & D.. indianapolis Division

Regarding the Cincinnati. Richmond &
Muncie road. now in process of construc-
ton, c. G.. Waldo remarked that the c.. II.
& ID. had not a nickel invested in the road,
and that there was no foundation for the
report that the c., III. & ID. would establish
a through route to Chicago in connection
with the new road. He said the matter
had not even been suggested. The c., III. IL
ID. would get only a orty-eight-mile haul
over the suggested new line, against 124
via Indianapolis, well-known and estab-
lished popular line in connection with the
Monon. which has been established at large
expense in Improvement of roadbed and
the high standard of equipment. The
growth in traffic on the Indianapolis di-
vision of the c., I'll. & ID. has been such as
TO be very gratifying 10 the management,
its earnings during the past year having
exceeded all previous records Manager
Waldo intimated that there would be ex-
tensions west of the Indiana Decatur &
Western, which would make the Indianap-
oils division much more valuable prop
erty TO the c., III. < ID. people.

ABOUT EVENLY MATCHED.


1t would probably be difficult to find two
more evenly matched football elevens
among the colleges in the "Big Nine of
the West than Indiana and Illinois, who
battle for the championship Of the two
States on the Newly Oval next Saturday.
Last year on the occasion of the first meet
ing between the two teams Indiana rather
took the Illinois men by surprise and de-
feated them by score of to 0. While this
defeat would correspond to a one to moth
ing score in baseball the Illinois players
had believed themselves UNNECESSARILY
superior to Indiana and the men of Cham
paign were much chagrined over the result
of the game. Last fall Michigan defeated
both Indiana and Illinois by the same score,
5 to 0, showing by comparison that the two
elevens were closely matched. rms sea-
son comparative scores again show that on
form there is little TO choose between the
two teams. Northwestern early in the sea-
son defeated Indiana by a small score. but
both of the touchdowns made by North
western were largely in the nature OF ac-
cidents and the football critics VINO saw
the contest agreed that Indiana played a
better and more consistent game The con-
test between Illinois and Northwestern re-
suited in tie. neither eleven being able to
score. but Illinois is said 10 have played
the stronger game. A month later Indiana
was beaten by Michigan by score of IL to
0 and the next week Illinois played Michi-
gan in Chicago and was defeated by ex-
actly the same score. Indiana had slightly
the harder contract as her game with Mich
igan was played in Ann Arbor where II Is
almost impossible for visiting eleven TO
win while Illinois met the Wolverines on
neutral territory. The two elevens are the
strongest in their respective states ana
the game will practically decide the CHAM
pionship of Indiana and Illinois.
Tickets for the Indiana-illinois football
game will be put sale to-day at Huder's
drug store.
Members of the University Club are taxi
ing an active interest in the game and there
will be q number OF box parties given at
the Oval Saturday afternoon Manager
| Carr. of Illinois. suggests that all college
men attending the game wear their college
| colors and get into the spirit OF the contest
as they did when they were undergraduates
| and followed their own teams over the
! country.

FUTURE OF THE C., H. & D.
PRESIDENT WOODFORD.s PLAN FOR
CONSOLIDATING INTERESTS.
The Road Has No Money Invested I'm
the e., r.. a. VI. Line-General and
Personal Railway News.

M. ID. Woodford. president of the c., ii.
& ID. interests, in commenting the pro-
posed refunding of stocks and bonds Of
the roads controlled by what is kdown
as the Woodford syndicate. said: THE
plan involves the issuing of $20.000,O00 in 81
or per cent. blanket bonds, covering all
the roads Of the system, and exchanging
them for outstanding securities of the
main line and of roads operated under lease
or proprietary control. The new issue of
refunding bonds, as now contemplated, will
be payable in fifty years. Everything now
indicates an easy money market. and I
have little doubt that the bonds would
be easily placed" He did not anticipate
any opposition TO the refunding scheme
on the part of the minority stockholders.
If the scheme is a success it will reduce
the annual interest charges more than
s250.O00. 1t viii be purely optional with
the stockholders whether they hold their
present short-term securities at high rate
of interest or exchange them for the new
issue. There is to be no change in the
name of the system, as has been sug-
gested.

cation are as follows: Cincinnati division.

Trunk Check Question Again.

The question of the best kind of checks
agitating the minds of general passenger
agents, and it seems that majority of
them are favorable to the card rather tnan
the brass checks. Quite a number of rail-
roads have already adopted the cards, and
they have proved more than satisfactory.
1t is claimed that they are not only cheap
er, but are handler for the passenger, and
many OF the best informed passenger men
in the country think that IL will not be a
very great while before all the railroads in
the United States will be using the cards
generally Already the ma tier has been
discussed at meetings of the general bag
gage and general passenger agents, and 1t
is said that the more 1t Is discussed the
better the card system Is liked.
