SENATE.

Washington, Jan. 15-At the con-
clusion of routine business the reso
luton of Pettigrew, calling on the
secretary of war for certain informa
tion, regarding the Philippine insur
rection, was laid before the senate
Pettigrew declined Hoar's request tC
substitute a resolution presented by
Hoar. Berry, of Arkansas, had read
a resolution offered by Bacon, oi
Georgia, also that by Beveridge, Of
Indiana.
Those who desired to discuss the
Philippine question, he said, were met
by the objection that they were aid
ing those in arms against the United
States and were responsible for the
loss of life among our soldiers. He
regarded this as absolutely unwarrant.
ed, anu declared that no man, who
was man, would be deferred from
speaking by charges that were abso-
lutely unfounded by facts. Berry be-
lieved the two resolutions, read from
the desk, fairly represented the views
of the two great parties in this coun-
try. He was certain that the resolu-
tion of Beveridge reflected the senti-
ment and feelings of the administra-
tion because it had been favorably
commented upon by the administra--
tion's speakers and newspapers
throughout the country The resolu-
ton had been endorsed, he said, by
administration leaders, yet it confer
red an authority and power upon this
country as absolute as that possessed
by the Gear of Russia.
Senator Pettigrew followed Berry
and criticised the Philippine policy of
the administration. At o'clock the
financial bill was temporarily laid
aside in order to allow Pettigrew to
finish his speech and afford Wolcott,
of Colorado, an opportunity to submit
some remarks on the resolutions.
Wolcott said the speech of Petit
grew was Incorporate and Pettigrew
was fitted to speak for an i'll tempered
people who never had a good word for
anything or anybody. Wolcott said
he did not believe the expressions Of
sympathy for the Philippines had any
effect. If Aguinaldo knew anything
that was going on he knew that the
speeches made here carried but little
weight. Wolcott said that if Aguinal-
do was in Pettigrew's place, represent
ing South Dakota, he would not be
traducing the president and the off,
GERS of the American army now fight
ing in the Philippines. Wolcott also
took issue with Beveridge upon what
he said regarding the hand OF the Al
mighty in making the Anglo. Saxon
and Teutonic peoples guardians of
the heather and savage races of the
Fworld.

@TO NA|ALUA' lin Shin AND LIE YUEN !
THE BRIBERY CHARGE AGAINST
THE INTERPRETER.
How Travellers from China are Passed
at the Custom House-Lin Tells or a
Conspiracy.

Lin Shin Chow, the Chinese interpre-
ter in the immigration bureau at the
custom house, who was bound over last
Saturday to appear before the Grand
Jury under a charge of bribe- taking,
says that the charge against him which
was brought by one Yee Fook is the
| result of a conspiracy which had it's
| origin in a row over the tobacco store
at the corner of Nuuanu and Merchant
streets. Lin says that he can prove
that Yee was paid for his testimony by
one Lee Yuen, who is the man that had
the row over the store.
Lin Shin is accused of having re-
ceived $50 from Yee Fook for passing
two of Yees friends through the GUS
toms bureau. The men were passed, in
the usual way, by immigration inspec-
tor j. K. Brown, who signed the order
allowing them to land.
The system in vogue makes ii impos
sible for one in Lins position to issue
certificate or make use of any "affida-
Wits" as is alleged, but the interpreter
may materially assist a Chinese who
wants to get into the country by help
ing him to answer questions that are
put to him before he is allowed to land.
The Chinese come here with certificates
on which are their photographs. These
were examined last August, when the
alleged bribery took place, by Brown
and by inspector John w. Short, who
Hdu DOIn become expert IN ueJeCIlnS
differences between the faces of the
holders of certificates and the photos
thereon In addition to the photo as
means of Identification of the travellers
as former residents of Hawaii, there
was a lengthy examination at which
Lin Chow acted as interpreter.
Lin says that four Chinese arrived as
friends" of Yee Fook, at the time when
the $50 was paid over Two of them
were rejected and sent back home and
the other two were allowed to land.
Lin is inclined to think now that the
two ought to have landed but he denies
the bribery story and points to the re-
turn of two of Yee's friends as evil
dence that Yee did not buy him.
The tobacco store row began some
months ago. when Lin put $500 into the
store on Merchant street Lee Yuen
was one of the first organizers of the
store, but Lin was made manager. Col
lector Stackable allowed him to give
some of his time to the tobacco busi-
ness, as he was not needed at the Gus
tom house except when steamers were
coming or going.
The business prospered, while Lee and
Lin drifted apart. Lin gave Lee a job
and then fired him and it was then
that Lee went forth, says Lin, and de-
cided to do him up.
Lin says that the story of hatchets
and Lees danger is dream. He de-
clares that when the case comes before
the Grand Jury he will be able to show
up the whole conspiracy. Meanwhile
the Chinese newspapers are, and for
some time have been, publishing va
rlOuS articles intended to show that
Lin is not what a Chinese should be,
and Lin says the articles all originate
like the bribery charge with the man
whom he ousted from a fat job behind
the counter in his tobacco store.

WILCOX SERVES notice
AN EPIDEMIC OF ASSAULT AND
BATTERY CASES.
The Judge Announced That He is Going
to Stop 1t By Heavy Sentences-To-
days Cases.

Judge Wilcox says that there Is an
epidemic of assault and battery cases
in Honolulu, and he served notice this
morning that he had started out to stop
it, beginning with some heavy senten-
ceS.
The police court calendar lately has
been full of cases of assault and affray
Half of the cases one day last week
were assault and battery charges.
When this mornings calendar showed
a lot more of the same sort, Judge
Wilcox said he was going to give big
sentences hereafter, with view to put
ting an end to the fashion of scrapping
in public.
Frank Murphy was the first prisoner
to feel the new rule. He stopped on
Fort street last Saturday to smash a
native named Sam, because the native
wanted him to go and join him in
drink of swipes. Murphy said he didn't
want any swipes, but he saw that the
native followed him along the street, so
he turned on Sam. Judge Wilcox as
sessed him $25.
Charles Santos was given ten days on
the reef for striking Japanese woman
who was rash enough to ask him to
pay for peanuts he got from her store.
Santos said one of his companions did
the assaulting, but he had been in court
before many times, and the judge be-
lieVed the witnesses for the prosecution
The case will be appealed, as friends
came forward when they found that
Santos didn't get off with a fine.
L. W. Merrill was up for assaulting a
native from whom he tried to collect a
bill last week. Merrill appeared in
court with a big stone in his hand,
which he proposed to prove the native
had used in an attempt to put him out
of business. He wasn't ready for trial
and was given day to prepare, with
the judges ominous remarks about
heavy sentences ringing in his ears.
j. Oliver and -. Anderson were up for
affray. The arresting officers took the
| stand and described a lively pugilistic
encounter between the two. Anderson
said it was fun and oliver said he
''yunmped away" when Anderson made
passes at him. The judge thought ii
looked likht fight, and he fined the de-
| fendents 81 each. 1t was only small
| fight, remarh.d His Honor, and perhaps
the charge should have been drunkness.

NAH|ANARENTALREDUCED
FAVORABLE ACTION BY COUNCIE
THIS MORNING.
American Ships can not be Charged
When Pilots are not Taken-Right of
Way Granted.

After some discussion this morning
the Executive agreed to reduce the
minimum rental price of the new Wa
hiaWa Water Company from $4,000 to
SSOOO. w. o. Smith was present at the
meeting of the council and protested
against the enforcement of the rate
which had been adopted at the meeting
last week. By that agreement the
water company was to pay 10 per cent
with minimum of So, 900 to the govern
ment for the water concessions. Mr..
Smith urged that this price was too
great. He also asked that no money be
taken from the company for the ensu-
ing two years as the company had to
eXpend large sum in Improvement
and it was doubtful if it would yield
any returns during that period.
The matter was discussed at some
length and finally the first action was
rescinded and the minimum of $4,000
with 10 per cent was fixed as the rental.
AS further concession the government
agreed not to require the company TO
pay anything for the ensuing two years
provided dividends were not declared.
clared
Land Commissioner Brown brought
up the matter of the application of
treasurer Lansing for a right of way
over government land at Koolau. Mr..
Lansing asked to be allowed to carry a
pipe line from the Waihale stream over
leana. Inasmuch as he asked to carry
only water which belonged to him, the
right of way for 80 years at -, per an
mum was granted. 1t was further
specified that the pipe shall be so laid as
not to interfere with the use of govern
ment land nor to interrupt the flow of
the stream. The government does not
by the terms of this lease convey any
rights to government water and no
other water rights We're conveyed by
it,

WILL NOT HANG QUITE YET
EXECUTION OF FUGIHARA POST
PONED BY SUPREME COURT.
Chief Justice Frear Issues the Writ
of Error as Prayed for by the De
fendant

Fugihara will not be hanged next Fri
day When the Supreme Court handed
down an adverse decision in the appli-
cation for writ of habeas corpus in
his case last Saturday it was thought
by some that the Japanese murderer
would eXpate his crime. In it's decision
the court intimated however that while
the writ was to be denied, the proper
method to take was to sue for a writ
of error. This was accordingly done
and this morning Chief Justice Frear
issued the writ to Daniel Porter clerk
of the Fourth District Court at Hilo
This means that another respite will
probably be given the murderer. The
grounds are practically the same in the
present writ as those upon which the
action for habeas corpus was based
The records of the circuit court can
now be brought before the Supreme
Court for consideration.

MEDICAL EXAMINATIONS.
Result of the One at Ulupalakua

some time ago reported to the Board
of Education regarding the medical ex-
animation at that school writes as fol-
lows under date of October IS:
MY report seems to have been the
occasion of censure some of which, from
later developments, was unjust. The
doctor sent word to me that he would
visit the school the week ending Sep
tember 2Sth. He did not come and
received no word from him, so 1 wrote
the Superintendent.
1T has transpired that he tried to
get me by telephone, but as 1 have no
instrument, he rung up a third party
asking him to tell me that he had been
i'll, but was better and would come the
following week.
"The message was not delivered to
me, or l should not have written as l
did.
"The doctor inspected this school on
the 4th of October, making "a vaccina-
