SO THE CABINET DECIDED THIS
MORNING.
Two Hundred Able Bodied Natives and
japanese There Must Go to Work
Saloon for Palama-

The Kalihi detention camp was the
! principal topic before the Cabinet today.
A petition of a number of japanese and
natives to be allowed to remain there
brought up the discussion. Superinten-
| dent McVeigh reported that hese peO-
pie were able bodied men and that there
was no goodTeason for supplying them
with home any longer. He submitted
a statement of the expenses of the
camp, showing tn cost to be $500 a
month, as follows: Doctor, $400; one
nurse, $3.50; one nurse, $90 two wash
women, $50; board $120 1t was recon-
| mended that the doctor and the head
! nurse be dispensed with, which would
| reduce eXpenses-to $40. so a day. There
are in the camp two Japanese women
with typhoid fever who cannot be re-
/ moved yet awhile. Except as to these
! it is recommended that the camp be
closed. The Cabinet decided to endorse
| this idea, and referred the matter to
7 the Board of Health for action.
II. Juen was granted permission TO
| open saloon on King street in Palama,
nearly opposite the Oahu Lumber Conn
pany's yard. Juen was the proprietor
of the Louvre saloon, and was burned
out with block 10. His lincese is still in
existence.
j. H. Threshler applied for the strip
of land by the side of Hopp's furniture
store on Bethel street. He was inform
| eu undI nOInlnB COulQ De done IN the
matter of public lands until the terri
i torial bill is passed.
The designations of Dr. f. H. Day
4 and f. NJ. Hatch, members of the
Board of Health, were read. Mr.. Hatch's
resignation was accepted by President
Dole some days ago.
| Minister Young was instructed to car
ry out the recommendation of the Board
| of Health that the Iwilei swamp be
| condemned, and also to make invest-
cations in regard to the low places in
Kewalo. If the latter district is found
to be as bad as the Board reports, it
also is to be condemned.
1t was voted that, as soon as he has
the money, the Minister of Interior pro-
ceed with the extension of Vineyard,
School and Kuakini streets through TO
Kamehameha road, as requested by the
Kalihi Improvement League.

ADMIRAL DEWEY WILL RUN
SAYS HE is READY TO ACCEPT A
NOMINATION.
''If the American People Want Me For
This High office Am Only Too Will
ing to Serve"


NEW YORK, April IA World spec
dal from Washington says:
admiral George Dewey is willing to
be a candidate for President. He au-
thorizes the World to announce to the
American people that after mature re-
Election, and in response to the earnest
entreaties from all parts Of the coun-
try, his former decision not under any
circumstances to run for the Presi-
pondent saw the admiral at his home
ait 6 O'Clock this evening. Admiral Dew
ey dictated the answers to the questions
and signed the notes.
admiral, in view of the many con-
flicting reports relative to your attitude
toward a nomination for the Presidency
will you make statement to the
World?"
Yes; I realize that the time has ar
rived when ] must definitely define my
position. When l arrived in this coun-
try last September 1 said that nothing
would induce me to be candidate for
the Presidency. Since then, however,
1 have had the leisure and inclination
to study the matter and have reached a
different conclusion, inasmuch as sc
many assurances have come to me from
my countrymen that 1 would he &C
ceptable as a candidate for this great
Office
'If the American people want me for
this high office l will only be too will
ing to serve them. IT is the highest
honor in the gift of this nation what
citizen would refuse it?
"Since studying the subject I am con-
WINGED that the office of the President
is not such very difficult one to fill
his duties being mainly to execute the
laws of congress. Should l be chosen
for this exalted position I would exc
cute the laws of Congress as faithfully
as have always executed the laws OF
my superiors' -
'Is there any political significance II

mo; 1 am simply filling the engage.
Inents made months ago-long before
ever thought seriously of the Presiden
.cy."
"On what platform will you stand?'
"I think I have said enough at this
time, and possibly too much"

thought would be more suitable time.

KILLED ON THE RAIL.
Tive Young Men Lose Their Lives at
Independence.

The same old, old story was re-
peated over at Independence last
Saturday night, February roth.
Two young fellows about eighteen
years OF age, Joseph Trickett, son
of Harmon Trickett, the merchant
at Gainesville, and Guy Fortney,
a son of Jacob Fortney, of Three
Fork, had come to Independence to
attend festival and about half past
nine the boys went down to the de-
pot to watch for brother of Fort
ney, who runs on the railroad, with
headquarters at Cumberland, and
his train was expected along about
that time. They were standing on
the east-bound track and train %
came along on that track and they
stepped over to the other track, as
so many foolish people do, instead
of getting off entirely, and got right
in front of engine No. 1908, going
west with freight train.
The engine was in charge of En-
gineer Morget and fireman Waddel,
of Cumberland, who saw the men
and blew their whistle and rang the
bell, but the noise Of the other train.
which they were watching, drownded
the noise of the one coming behind
and confused the boys, so that they
did not move and engine 1908
struck them, breaking both legs for
one and one leg for the other and
cutting his head and injuring both
internally, so that they never re-
covered consciousness, one dying
in half an hour and the other to-
ward morning. Trickett was buried
at Gainesville, Monday and Fortney
at the Weaver graveyard, same day.
When will people learn to alaOays
get eli Of b0M tracks To let train
