TwENTY-F FIVE FIGHTING SHIPS
AT SHANGHAI
Nippon Maru's Passengers See an I'm
pressive Display of Power-More Mis-
sionaries Going Home.

Twenty-Five men of war resting at
anchor in the harbor of Shanghai was
the Impressive spectacle Witnessed by
those on board the steI.utr Nippon
Maru, which arrived here to-day. There
were battleships and cruisers of all ma
tions, Britain having the largest repre-
sentation, all looking after the interests
of their countries in connection with the
war with China. In the city were the
several thousand Sikhs landed by Great
Britain and two transports were ap-
preaching to join the great fleet of
warships.
A few more missionaries. who are
among the last of the lot to return
home from China on account of the up
rising there, are on board the Nippon
Maru. They are from the extreme west
ern province of Szchuan in which so far
there has been little trouble.
The Rev. j. f. Peat, with Mrs. Peat
and four children, and Miss +. Hunt,
are the recalled ones this time They
had a journey of about 1900 miles across
China before them, when the messages
of the consuls warning all missionaries S
to get out of the country were sent out.
II was the end of July when Mr.. Peat
and family started homewards. and
they had hard trip on the Yangtsc
river, though they were not mUlested by
Chinese. There were enough startling
to get on to Shanghai as quickly as
possible.
Mr.. Peat is firmly convinced that the
trouble in China will last a long time.
He eXpectes the capture of Peking and
establishment of order there to be fol-
lowed by outbreaks in other places.
The Chinese are better prepared in
the matter of arms and ammunition
than most people think" said the mis-
sionary this morning. "The agreement
| of the powers not to ship any more
arms to China will not stop them from
getting all they need. They have their
own arsenals and are making first class
weapons for themselves.
There are arsenals in nearly all the
capitals of the provinces and doubtless
in other places. At Chentu the Chinese
are manufacturing first class Mauser
| rifles in large quantities. They have
learned from the white men how to
it, and now the white men will have tC
reckon with them"
The Rev. Mr.. Peat represents the
American Methodist Episcopal board o.
missions. Miss Hunt has charge of tn,
J Chinese educational work of the
Friends, of England.

NOT TRESPASS.

In the case of Lo Kan, charged with
being unlawfully on the premises Of
another at night, the Supreme Court
has filed a decision sustaining the ex-
ceptions of the defendant and ordering
a new trial. The man was convicted
in Judge Perry's court. 1t seems, to
the Supreme court, that Lo Kan went
to a servants house on Mr.. Bolte's
premises on business and, upon invited,
spent the night there. 1t is ruled that
there was nothing unlawful in this. The
objection was that it was during the
plague quarantine and that a rule of
the Board of Health was violated. The
higher court says that this was not
made as a specific charge and could not
be considered in connection with the

.SAVANT TANDF|SHVENDORS.
THEY MEET AND BARTER IN THE
MARKET.
President Jordan returning from Study
ing the Fish of Japan has Experiences
in Honolulu Market

DR.. Jordan accompanied by Professor
Snyder who is also a passenger on the
Nippon Maru visited the fish market
this morning and secured large guam
tity of beautiful fish. DR.. Jordan ms
pected the wares at every stand and Ii
was not long before every fish vender
in the place was hurrying after the gem
tlemen offering the most curious looking
fish obtainable. The fish men knew
nothing about Dr. Jordan but they did
know that some body wanted to get all
of the curious and brilliantly hued fish
in the market and they overlooked no
opportunity of disposing of their stock.
One of the crowd had no fish but he
took the most available specimen in the
shape of an enormous live lobster which
he offered to DR.. Jordan with evident
anticipation of money. But the Doctor
probably thought there were enough
Holsters in California so he declined to
be held responsible for any further ad-
ditions to the breed on the Coast.
"Our trip to Japan was made for the
purpose of studying the fish of that
country. We reached there the latter
part of June and passed the rest of the
stay touring all over the islands, with
the exception of Formosa. We have
brought home over 125 specimens of
fish which are unknown to science. All
told we secured 1000 specimens and 700
kinds. Comparatively nothing was
known of the fish of Japan before our
trip. We paid particular attention to
the fish found in the tide pools and the
deep water of the Black Current. The
first kind are generally small with
bright colors while the deep sea fish are
brilliant in colors and sometimes a
beautiful violet. In our party were
Professor j. O. Snyder instructor in
geology at Stamford University and
two Japanese graduates of the univer-
sity. They were K. Otaki a professor
at Toxic and K. Abe who is in business
| there also. S. Kuwunaan assistant in
| the university laboratory was also
! with us gathering insects. We secured
number of specimens of japanese
reptiles.
1.-The Hawaiian Islands is one of the
| best places in the world for securing
specimens of fish. They abound here
in great variety. In 1890 Professors
Jenkins and Price visited the islands
and secured specimens of fish. We will
gather some specimens while here and
take them home for the assistance OF
those gentlemen who are preparing a
history of their Investigations"

FROM SCENES Of WAR 0PHCS PLAGUE CASE
VICTIM NOT A PASSENGER FROM
HONOLULU.
Probably Took Passage for Kobe AZ
Yokohama-The Vessel Fumigated
and Guaranteed at Kobe.

The Chinese who had bubonic plague
on board the steamer Coptic at Kobe
last month did not come from Homo
lulu, as was reported. BY the Nippon
Maru today news was brought that his
name was All Ooh. The records of de-
partures from here by the Coptic con-
tain no such name, so that the doctors
ne, worry no more about tne case
The Coptic left here on August 2, ar
rlVlng at okonama on the lIth and at
Kobe on the 18th. All Ooh was prob
ably a passenger from Yokohama.
There were $50 Chinese in the steerage
and 10 cabin passengers.
The Chinese was found to be sick
with some sort of a fever, while the
vessel was in quarantine. After a care
full examination his case was declared
to be one of bubonic plague and he
was removed to a pest hospital The
steamer was fumigated and put into
quarantine for ten days. She was re-
leased on the 25th, and is expected to
arrive here on schedule time, Septem-
ber %.
The report that the Coptic's plague
patient had come from Honolulu caus-
ed no little worry among the doctors
and public generally, as it appeared to
open a prospect of another outbreak
here.
Regarding the case of plague discov-
cred on the S. S. Coptic at Kobe of
which report was brought by the Doric
that it was said to be a Chinese from
Honolulu, the Japan Gazette contains
the following published on successive
dates:
"On Thursday morning, August 16, Ii
was discovered that a Chinaman, one
of the steerage passengers on board the
S. S. Coptic, lying in Kobe, was suffer-
ing from plague. The patient was inn
mediately sent to the hospital for treat
ment, the vessel being ordered to un-
dergo 10 days detention.
LAS notified by US yesterday the S. S.
Coptic is in quarantine at Kobe; and
the Kobe Herald writes On the arriv-
al of the o. & o. liner Coptic at the
Quarantine Station on the 18th, from
Honolulu via Yokohama. a Chinese pas
senger (Ah Goh) was found to be in
high fever. The steamer was detained
there while the authorities held an ana
lytical examination of the suspected
found to be plague the ship has been
! put in quarantine for ten days. The
| man has been landed and taken to the
| Quarantine hospital.
@Since the discovery of the case of
plague upon the s. S. Coptic the author
| tiles here have disinfected all the pas
sengers who landed at this port: and
are treating the cargo in the same
way.
"The general disinfection of the Cop
| tic was completed August 15 and the

o'clock on Sunday morning, August 10"

FOR WIDE OPEN CHARTERS
COMPANIES WANT AMENDMENTS
TO FRANCHISES.
Eva and Kohala Desire Privilege of
Acquiring Control of Other Corpora
tions-Nothing to Prevent.

F. M Hatch met the Executive this
morning on the subject of amendments
to the charters of Eva and Kohala
plantations, giving those corporations
the right to acquire majority of the
stock of other corporations. 1t appears
that Eva has already acquired a con-
trolling interest in Apokaa plantation,
and Kohala plantation holds a majority
of the stock of the Kohala Railway.
Under their charters neither of the cor
porations can do this without express
permission of the Executive, inserted
in the charter.
Although in the past the Government
has not favored granting this somewhat
extraordinary privilege to corporations,
the general law seems to permit new
corporations to do much as they please
in the matter. For this reason the
members of the Executive present at
the meeting this morning favored
granting both petitions. A final vote
on the matter was not taken, however.
! The ruling, if adhered to, will make it
a very easy matter for plantations to
! buy one another, or even for one plan
tation to acquire a controlling interest
in all the plantations of the group.
y In view of the above Governor Dole
is impressed with the Importance of
the legislature dealing with and revis-
ing the charter laws.
'Wray Taylor, commissioner of agri-
culture, reported that there was great
demand on Hawaii for fnoculated bee
tles' to prey upon pest beetles. He
went on to say that immense success
was being met with. in all parts of the
group with inoculated beetles. In all
places where they had been distributed
good results were very soon apparent.
In some localities the Japanese beetle
had practically been decimated. The
mere distribution of inoculated beetles
in pest localities has the desired effect
as contact with the healthy beetles is
all sufficient.

times by reports that the coin had ar

been fooled when they went to collect
bills from custom house men. The Gus

that it has been quite an education.

SAYS SHE IS NOT INSANE
APPEAL OF LADY COMMITTED TO
ASYLUM.
Mrs. Tewksbury Prays Judge Humph-
reys to Review Her Case-Petition
Granted-Unusual Occurrence.

Mrs. Rita c. Tewksbury has appealed
to Judge Humphreys, of the Circuit
court, against the ruling of District
Magistrate w. L. Wilcox declaring her
to be an insane person and committing
her to the Insane Ayslum for treatment
She represents that she is of sound
mind and Is restrained of her liberty,
wrOngfully. Referring to the past she
does not admit that she ever was in
sane.
Judge Humphreys has consented to
hear the petition, and has set Septem-
ber 13, at 10 a. m, as the time for such
hearing.
Mrs Tewksbury has been committed
to the asylum three times. The last
time was about three months ago when
she was examined as to sanity by DIR.
Emerson and by the District Magis-
trate. Since that time the asylum au-
thorities have not seen fit to release the
lady. The case is unusual in the eX-
| treme. Seldom before has a person
been committed to and released from
I the Asylum so many times and never
before has there been an appeal from
the committing court on such matter.
When u person suspected of being in
sane is taken into custody there is first
an examination by the police physician.
Sometimes other physicians are called
in. If the decision is that the person
is insane the matter is then taken be-
fore the district court where a formal
examination is conducted. The District
Magistrate being satisfied as to the in
sanity of the person commitment is
prepared and signed. That always ends
| it. The asylum authorities have the
authority and power to release any per-
son when satisfied that cure has been
! effected.
Mrs Tewksbury is well known in the
| Islands. She is of Portuguese extrac-
| ton, and was married to an English
man. Her trouble dates back to 1895.
