ratified and affirmed by the President. The
statement was a wicked and nlaiicicu;
faIsehoots when twas made, a;rt has been
repeated by others either in ignorance of
the facts or in disregard OF the truth.
I'm the first pace, ITO treaty has neegl

asserted, but it is TRUE that General Bates.
acting On Behalf of the armed forces of
the United STATES, entered into Il tenn
porary agreement with the Sultan ana
others by which if it had been approved
by the President and by Congress slavery
would have been recognized and POSSIBLY
fortified in that territory,
General Grosvanor then read CORES
pond nee between the War Department
and General Otis in which Secretary Root,
under instruction of the President, con-
firmed the treaty with the Sultan of
Sulu, at the same time stating that the
agreement was Not to be deemed in any
way to authorize or to give the consent
Of the United States to the existence of
slavery in the Suiu Archipelago. At the
same time wnen you communicate To the
Sultan, the above mentioned under
standing the President desires that You
should make inquiry as to the number OF
persons he'd in slavery in the archipelago
and what arrangement 1t may be
practicable to make for their emancipa-

1T will be seen that the statement that
the President in any way ratified. con-
firmed or approved of the existence OF
slavery or involuntary servitude in the
Sulu archipelago was utterly false. crimi-

900, will cost the Government almost
nothing, as | have a distinct verbal
contract with witnesses) with Mr..
Baldwin that we may use the camp
and after quarantine is over it will
become the new Chinatown of Kahu-
lui.
The cost of the corrals and some mi
nor items will be at the expense of the
Government. By digging wells we
nave secured considerable water for
bathing japanese, but drinking-w water
must be hauled from Wailuku by train,
which is large item of expense. We
nave about exhausted the supply of
clothing and blankets; so, if any emer-
gency should arise, it would be impos-
slDle to handle the people without
shipments from Honolulu. At present
L am unable to give the people COM
plete changes of underwear, and, if the
policy OF clothing the people as in Ho-
nolulu is carried out, we must have
more supplies sent in.
The wharf regulations are being
obeyed as long as 1 keep somewhat of
supervision over it. The second
wharf was opened this morning for
handling of coal under the same re-
strictions. The railroad has been en-
closed with barbed wire fence, and
traffic across the tracks is impossible.

time with safety. Our hospital is fin

Portions of Waikiki are in a very

LATER INTELLIGENCE.
The Eighth Plague Case Develops
in Maui.

MAUI, Feb. 19.-For some reason
the steamer Claudine did not sail for
Honolulu on Saturday, as was an
nounced by telephone, but comes from
Hama today and sails away this after
noon The first death by plague since
Sunday, the 18th, took place yesterday.
the 18th, thus breaking the bright rec
ord of a week or more.
On Thursday, the 8th, Chinese. suf-
fering with fever, was taken from the
detention camp and placed in the pest
hospital. Later pneumonia symp-
toms were developed, and he died on
Sunday, the 18th. At the postmortem
examination the cause of his death was
declared to be plague, making the
eighth victim to the disease. The body
was burned Immediately.
This morning, by order of the
Health Committee, a cottage, known
as the Charlie Broad house, was
burned at Kahului, inasmuch as it was
believed to be infected.
By order of DR.. Garvin, no church
or congregation of any kind was held
during Sunday, the 18th.
Camp Four, Spreckelsville, has had a.
scare. A Japanese was taken sick.
and, it was rumored, with plague, but
after examination this morning the
doctors declare the fever not to be bu-
bonic. However, it seems difficult to
detect the presence of plague except by
pOstmortem examination.
Hearing of this case at Camp -Four,
Captain of Police Kalama sent ten Jap
anese runaways to the Kahului deten-
ton camp. They were six men, three
women and a child. Kalama found
them yesterday, hiding in Halehaku
gulch, we'll provided with rice, sugar,
etc. They said they had fed from
Camp Four, Spreckelsville, so Captain
kalama Immediately sent them to Ka-
hului. They were either fleeing from
work Or running from what they be-
lieved was plague.
It is rumored that the Japs are de-
serting Camp Four, fleeing in different
directions.
If the theory advanced that the
plague was brought to Maui through
Chinese New Year goods is true, then
| it is quite possible for the plague to
break out in Camp Four, for those
same goods were carried to Camp Four
and Camp Five, Spreckelsville, to Ma
| kawao, and, in fact, scattered all over
the Island. There were some thirty or
forty cases of goods in all, and they
were divided up and sent to Chinese
camps and stores all over Wailuku and
| Makawao districts. So the theory
| that plague was introduced by Chinese
goods is opened to argument. It was
just seven days after the landing of a
| lot of Japanese laborers that the dis
ease showed itself. Among the num-
Der were forty free men (without con-
tracts), who remained in Kahului, in
! Chinatown and all over the village, for
several days. How the plague came to
Maui is still an open question.

during Thursday, but pleasant and cold
during other days of the week.
Several days before the official dec
laration OF plague at Kahului, a we'll
Alown kuia resident noticed dead rats
along the sea beach at Kahului.
During the conflagration of China
town, on the 18th, men armed with
shotguns killed all the rats, cats and
dogs attempting to escape from the
fire.
1t is fact worthy of notice that sew
eral prominent Chinese declared that
there was plague in Kahului several
days before the 10th. They had been
familiar with the disease in China.

Dead of Starvation.

Last Tuesday afternoon, the 18th,
Captain of Police S. E. Kalama of Ma
kawao discovered two Japanese in the
house of Pauole, the Kula policeman,
who lives makai of the Kealahou Gov
eminent school house. One of the
Japs was dead and the other was very
sick; and what rendered the cases
more suspicious was that the sick Jap
said that they had come from Spreck-
elsville. The native residents had de-
serted the premises, fearing plague.
Captain Kalama Immediately tele-
phoned for DR.. McConkey, placed a
guard over the house, and established
a temporary quarantine over the Kula
people, for the protection of adjoining
Makawao. DR.. McConkey arrived early
the next morning, and, after examina-
ton, declared that the Jap died Of star
walton. He sent both the dead man
and the sick one to quarantine quar-
ters in Kahului, where DR.. Garvin per-
formed an autopsy, which showed that
something besides plague caused the
death of the japanese.
Waikiki, too, during the week has
had (reported) suspicious case, which
has proved to be not plague.

United Work Against the Plague.
A. Singular Accident.

SPRECKELSVILLE, Feb. 1.-THE
people at large have earnestly second
ed the efforts of the health officials in
every way, and the presence of a
common enemy has closed the ranks
and caused old feuds and differences to
be laid aside, at any rate, for awhile.
A Japanese laborer named Morikawa
Imataw met with his death at Spreck-
elsville mill on the 10th in a somewhat
remarkable manner. He was grubbing
up an algeroba tree and when it COM
menced to fall he did not seem to have
sufficient presence of mind to get out
of the way. It descended quite slowly.
but he seemed to be paralyzed, and
simply stood still till it crushed him
to the earth. He was extricated at
once by the gang who were assisting
him to fell the tree, and carried to
the hospital, but he expired almost i'm
mediately. Verdict, accidental

Health at Kahului:

one death on Sunday, February Is, at
the pesthouse. This case I picked out
on February Is as only slightly sus-
picious; but it developed rapidly, and
the postmortem examination showed a
very good case of the pneumonia form,
with no glandular engagements. For
this reason / have set the time for the
whole number back, so that the period

Refugees Ca ptured.


During Tuesday night, the 18th. the
raid on the Kula district under the
direction of L. Won Tempsky, member
of Maui's Health Committee, and Cap
tain Kalama resulted in the capture
of but three refugees from the former
Chinatown of Kahului. They were
TWO Japanese and one Chinese. In this
raid more than fifty men took part,
under eight leaders. The raid began
at p. m. and ended during the early
hours of the next morning. The ter
rltory covered was at least sixteen
mics in length along the Government
road and extended up the whole noun
tain side of Haleakala. The results are
somewhat disappointing, for if there
were 300 deniZens in Chinatown and
only 2O5 Of them are in the detention
camp, then there are still ninety-fye
to be accounted for.
during Wednesday night, the 14th.
Captain Kalama captured three more
runaways below Uiuwalu, in Hamakua.
Schools Closed.
Owing to the fact that so many of
the former residents of Chinatown
were reported to have fed into Kula
and other parts of Makawao tho

No Hog Cholera on Maui--Deaths
From Other Causes.

Editor Advertiser: 1 noticed a
statement in the Star the other day
that a large number of pigs had died
in Kamaole of the above sickness. l
would like to say that there is no hog
cholera on Maui, nor has there been
since 1885, when it ragged very bad
ly. A large number of pigs did die in
Kamaole and other parts of Kula dur
ing the months of September and Oc-
tober, but they merely died from the
effect of the terrible drought we were
then undergoing. 1t was so severe
that it shrivelled up the leaves of the
cactus, which, in ordinary seasons, is
the principal food of the hogs during
the dry months of the year.

MAUI, Feb. 17.-Everything favor
able for the entire suppression of the
plague is the report this morning from
the chairman of the Health Commit
tee of Maui. No new cases for six
days past, or since Sunday, the 18th.
Maui's death list from the plague will
probably number but seven. II this
prediction proves true, then Maui citi-
zens can point with pride to their
prompt action in the destruction of
kahului's Chinatown, which was I'M
doubtedly the most powerful agency in
barring the progress of the epidemic.
Still, many people, knowing the in
Sldious manner in which bubonic
plague lies dormant for a time, only
to break out again with greater vio-
lence, rightly believe that the danger
is not as yet past. So the plantations
will maintain their local guarantees
for another week at least. The prac-
tice of the managers Of the sugar es-
tates is not to allow their employees to
go beyond plantation boundaries; to
allow no strangers to enter, and to
prevent as much as possible all NOV
ing about and intermingling.
Though there have been no bona
fide plague cases since Sunday, still
the public mind, rendered nervous by
the frightful events at the beginning
of the week, has been agitated by sew
eral false alarms.
