TOPICS or THE DAY.

That the export trade Of Japan
has undergone a marked develop.
ment during the past ten years is an
unquestionable fact. The cotton
industry shows the most remarkable
record. In the 30th year of Meiji
the total output was 42,034, 4,975 cat
ties, value at 13 49O,197 yen, whereas
by the 31st year it bad increased to
6S,S00,6SS catt'ea, valued at 2O,lO5,
GIL yen. Still further progress is
expected for last year. The cotton
manufactures exported from Kobe
from January TO November last year
aggregated 26 million yen approx.
mately, while the number OF bales
is said to have exceeded 100000. At
present forecast of % millions of
yen over the year is by no means un-
justifable.

plague, which has obtained in Homo.
lulu, was brought here through
Chinese goods, San Francisco, which
received the major part of the same
shipment thought to have brought
the plague to this port, cannot rea.
sonably be immune.
But since San Francisco, from
latest advices, is a clean port, not.
withstanding the receipt of Chinese
goods, 1 feel that it is sufficient
proof that Chinese merchandise
could not have brought the plague
to Honolulu-for il this we're the
case, San Francisco could not have
escaped from the deadly disease.
This, to any impartial and unpre-
JUDGED mind ought to be reason.
able argument.
Ii Chinese goods should be pro.
hibited from landing here, the Chi
nese would be deprived of their
accustomed diet, aud there would
be but one result-sickness-
sickness at present means plague to
most people. Thus no one can tell
where the trouble will end-for to
the majority of Chinese, the loss Of
their staple food is equivalent to the
loss of wealth.
Being one of many who seek for
the welfare of the Trojan and
Tyrian alike, I respectfully bring
this matter to the attention OF the
public, aud the Board of Health in
particular, in order that that honor
able body may give it serious con-
sideration before it take steps to
prohibit the importation of Chinese
goods, as such an order will not only
affect the Chinese, but also the
material interests of the islands at
large.
In conclusion would suggest that
the local press, instead of constantly
laying the blame Of the plague on
Chinese goods, and advocating meas
ures detrimental to Chinese inter-
este, as has been we'll said by an
evening paper, "what is the usa of
kicking them when they are down9"
advocate measures for the thorough
cleansing and systematic improve
ment of the city, and when this is
done, then and not till then NAV we
safely hope that danger from the
scourge has abated; but no amount
OF prohibition on Chinese goods will
help us at all. @. W1NAM.

1t has been suggested that the
Punahou College should be opened
because the pupils who are to gra.
duate this year need the facility OF
attending to their studies. We can
see no reason why the graduating
class should not attend the college
as long as the junior class and the
preparatory school remain closed.
The young people who hope to
graduate this year are not numer-
GUS, and there is no fear that
through their surroundings at home
they will endanger the health of
each others. To have nine or ten

CORRESPONDENTS.
The Chinese Sentiments.

ED. The INpEPENDENT:-
Well, has it been said that trouble
never comes siugly. The events of
the past two months are still fresh
in the minds of the public, more
especially in the minds of those, who
are directly or indirectly connected
with the various occurrences. The
people in general have borne their
losses aud sorrows with patience
which may without exaggeration be
termed joblike.
Although every race directly or
indirectly concerned has suffered a
great deal, yet, for some reason
or other, the Chinese seem to be the
magnet towards which all troubles
INCREASINGLY tend-for notwithstaud-
ing the wholesale destruction OF
their belongings, there is talk of
depriving them of their accustomed
diet.
The Advertiser has editorially ad.
vised the burning of all imported
Asiatic food stuff, on the ground
that plague was brought here by
Chinese goods, and that if such be
destroyed and further importation
of same be prohibited. no danger
from the dreaded disease would be
incurred. The morning paper bases
its arguments on circumstantial evil
dence. cit says that plague broke
out amidst Asiatic merchandise. 1t
cites the case of Ethel johnson,
limiting that she contracted plague
by eating Oriental sweet meats. It
also states that Mrs, Boardmau COM
nonly received presents of Asiatic
delicacies through the Mongolian
friends OF her husband; thus yer.
tually saying that she also contract
ed plague through contact with
Oriental goods.
Now Ethel johnson was by no
means the only European to eat
Chinese sweet meats, and Mrs.
Boardman was by no means the only
pale face to receive presents of
Oriental delicacies from Chinese
friends. Aud il they died through
eating or mere contact with Chinese
goods, many more whites would have
succhmbed to the deadly malady in
the same way. II one can obtai

with Chinese goods, l can assure he

ton of Hawaii would have been to-

have been. consuming the goods
which were shipped from China and
pronounced by the Advertiser to be
the source OF plague.
The Advertiser also states that the
majority OF the plague victims
bought their food at Chinese or
Japanese groceries This is prob
ably true; but it is no conclusive
proof that they contracted the dis
ease from Chinese goods.
To further strengthen my view
that plague was not introduced here
through Oriental merchandise, I
would respectfully invite those, who
differ with me, to consider for
moment that, of the Chinese
freight conveyed by various steamers
from China, only one tenth, learn

We met Japanese this morning,
who looked pale and miserable and
scantily dressed. We were surprised
because month ago we knew him
as a thrifty citizen, always in good
employ, and always neatly dressed.
In answer to question be said that
he had just been released from the
detention camp, to find his houses
in Chinatown burned down, his fur
niture and clothing gone up in
smoke with the money which alto
gether represented the savings of
seventeen years of faithful labor in
these islands. A Japanese is not
supposed to enjoy sentimental feel
ings, which are the luxury of the
"haoles" but he had tears in his eyes
when he pointed towards the bleak
desert between Nuuanu street and
the River street and said, 81 have

not considered even "a little"

TWO DIVORCE SUITS.

Mrs. Edith B. Noble has been granted
a decree of divorce from her husband,
George A. Noble, by Judge Lindsay. Ac-
cording to the testimony Mr.. and Mrs.
Noble were united in marriage in this
city in 1894 and have one child now 5
years old. The plaintiff told the court the
defendant had spent his money other
wise than on her, which in well regulated
communities is considered sufficient
grounds for a legal separation. Mrs. No

WITH SUICIDAL INTENT.
Such Was the Verdict Rendered in the
Adams Case.

"She came to her death through an
overdose of laudanum,
with suicidal intent"
This in substance was the Verdlct OF
the coroners jury at the inquest which
was held on the remains of Mrs. John E.
Adams late Yesterday afternoon. Three
physicians were among the witnesses
called, one of them being DR.. Lobb who
has been accused by the Woman's nus
band of alternating his wife's affections.
DR., r. S. Freeman, the first witness said
he was called to h woman's room at ~
| West Quartz street and upon examlna-
ton found that she had taken poison.
notwithstanding the remedies that were
administered Mrs. Adams died. DR.. Ig-
natius Donnelly testified that he con-
suited with and worked with DR.. Freund
in the Adams case. The woman was in
a semi-conscious condition when he ar
rived. James Martin, a druggist, said he
sold Mrs. Adams the laudanum. the
woman saying she was accustomed to
taking the drug to induce sleep. He de-
clared that he would sell laudanum to
anyone who had the price,"
John E. Adams said he saw his wife
about 9 o'clock Sunday evening. She
said she was going to do something n
he took some powders from her. He de-
clared the woman said DR.. LObb had told
her she must destroy herself or get out
of the country. Mrs. Adams had con-
tossed her intimacy with DR.. Lobb Mr..
Adams testified. The witness said he
started for the Office of his attorneys n
later met Mr.. Meyer, who said Mrs.
Adams had taken poison. The doctors
were sought. The witness said he had
no cross words with his wife before he
took the powders from her, but admitted
they had had trouble previously, and had
been separated for a week.. He said his
wife claimed DIR. Lobb had agreed to fur
nish her with money to leave town.
DR.. Lobb said Mrs. Adams was DR..
