CRITICAL TIME FOR TOBACCO.

Glastonbury, Aug. This is a crit ical time for the tobacco growers. The crop is so uniformly promising that all of them are especially anxious to get it into the barns safely. The tobacco is a little later here than in East Hartford, but those who have inspected the local crop report that it is one of unusually good quality, and if 1t is safely housed and cured there is a very profitable year in sight for the farmers.

A FATAL MISTAKE.
Torrington Farmers Drunken
 Prank.

Prank.
 [ Torrington, Aug. 7.-Charles Tremp,
 farmer living on Harwinton avenue,
 east of this borough, was found strangled to death in his barn, about a quarter of a mile from his house, at
 o'clock this morning. The discovery was made by his son Albert, aged eigh- teen years. The circumstances were peculiar. The dead man was found in a sitting posture on the floor of his barn, his head in moose at the end of a rope, which was suspended from a beam several feet above his head. The moose was very loose, and the mans building. The indications were that the man had been drinking and had fallen into stupor with the moose about his neck, Death was probably instantane- ous. A portion of his body inclined forward and caused the rope to press against the neck. He had been dead some hours when found.
 The man is said to have been de- spondent over some business trouble which he had got into and had been drinking rather heavily for some time. His friends are loath to admit that he really intended to take his own life, and give it as their belief that he merely meant to alarm his family, and in his intoxicated condition he overdid the matter.
 Tremp was fifty-five years old and a native of Switzerland He leaves wife and four children, the youngest ten years of age.

AWAKENING OF THE BOARD
BOARD ON UNATTENDED
DEATHS.
In Future Post-Mortems viii Be Held
Before Reports Are Sent to Coroner
Planning for a Morgue.

Another move was made by the Board
of Health yesterday afternoon in the
matter of unattended deaths in Homo
lulu. The following resolution was
passed: THAT in cases of all deaths
unattended by a physician, in which
the cause of death is not evident a
post-mortem examination be made un-
der the supervision of the Board of
Health before being reported to the
coroner"
DIR. Wood spoke very strongly on this
subject, at the same time presenting
statistics of the large number of unat-
tended cases in the past few months.
He said the police inquiry was merely
to inquire into suspicious circumstanc es
and was not satisfactory. In the in
terest of accurate mortality data and
science as well as the Board, should
make a close investigation in each such
case. In the same connection it was
decided to request the Executive to rec
ommend to the Council of State an APP
preparation for a public morgue. DR..
Day and DR.. Emerson were appointed
a committee to prepare plans and pres
ent the matter to the Cabinet.
Applications for shipment of various
articles of merchandise to parts of Oahu
were considered. Except one for hay,
all were granted, subject to certain
rules.
DR.. Ernest WaterhOuse was granted a
license to practice medicine in the Ha-
waiian Islands, he having passed sat
isfactory examination.
Trustees of the Kawaiahao church re-
quested that they be not compelled to
raise a building erected on Queen
street, as prescribed by the recent reg
ulations of the Board of Health, as the
church was poor. 1t was decided that
no exceptions could be made.
DR.. Wood reported at some length on
the last two cases of plague.

At the meeting of the Council of state
yesterday afternoon consideration Of
appropriations for the departments was
resumed. Items in the departments of

lengthy argument. There was only one
change, the item for maintenance of

of $4,000 for the period. Chairman Gear
reported that it would be two or three
days more before the committee could
report on the Interior Office estimates.

Collector-Consul Saito.

The Japanese Consul has petitioned
the Government to exempt the poor
people who were burned out in China

on the heels of stories of great hard
ship caused by the tax collectors, the
petition is at once impressive, and the
justice of it is quite apt to suggest it

to Minister Mott-Smith was yesterday
handed to the Council of State and re-

Honolulu, H. l., March q, 1900
HON. E. A. MOTT SMITH,
Minister of Foreign Affairs,
Honolulu, H. l.
Sir: l herewith have the honor to
transmit to you and through you to
the President and to the Council of
State, a petition from various residents
and taxpayers of Honolulu, praying for
the remission of taxes for the present
year, as they are left financially des-
titute in consequence of recent sanitary
fires, more particularly that of the great
fire of January 20, 1900.
The petitioners set forth their own
statement of the case in the accom-
panying petition.
I have the honor to be, sir, your ODE
dient servant, Mkt SAITO,
ii. l, Japanese MaJeSty'S Consul.
PETITION.
To the President of the Republic of
Hawaii and the members of the
Council of State.
Greeting: Your petitioners, residents
and taxpayers of Honolulu, Island of
Oahu, Hawaiian Islands, respectfully
represent to your honorable body that
we are left destitute on account of the
sanitary fires and more particularly
the big fire of the goth of January, 1900,
which destroyed nearly everything we
possessed.
Prior and up to the time of the burn
ing of Chinatown we were all earning a
living and were in independent circum-
circumstances. We are now left with
out any means of earning our livelihood
and are unable to secure work or en-
gage in business.
We, therefore, petition you to exempt
us from taxation for the year 1900.
Honolulu, H l., March 26, 1900.
There were S75 signatures attached to
the petition in Japanese with the Eng
lish translation thereof set opposite.
