GEORGE FREEMAN.
No Cause Yet Ascertained for his Sud
den Death.

George Freeman died suddenly at
Waikiki about 4:30 o'clock Saturday
afternoon, in the water or IMMEDIATELY
after he was taken from the water His
body was buried at the Pearl City &C.
metery at 1870 o'clock Sunday after
noon.
An autopsy was held, but the physi-
clan making the autopsy said yesterday
that he was not able from the results
of the autopsy to state a cause Of
death.
DR.. Shorey examined the contents of
the stomach and the urine. He found
considerable quantities of alcohol in the
stomach and unmistakable traces of
morphine in the urine.
No cause of death has been assigned
by the autopsy physician.
No inquest has been held.
What did he die off?
II was making analysis of the stom-
ach of Freeman when DR.. Mcdonald
informed me that there would be no
inquest. This was about noon yester-
day. l Immediately stopped the analy-
sis and have done nothing since. I
found that the stomach was consider
ably inflamed. This may have been
caused by a small or a large amount
of liquor. L found alcohol in the stom-
ach and also what I believe to have
been morphine. There the analysis was
shut off.
Il wish to say that the LIQUOR in the
stomach had a peculiarly stron~ smell.
This was noticed by DR.. Mcdonald as
well. In the light of subsequent events
in addition to my impressions at the
time, it may not be impossible that
there were poisons in the liquor found
in the stomach"
DR.. Pratt, agent of the Board of
Health, says: THE case was clearly
one demanding an inquest. DR.. Nc
Donald has not certified to the cause
of death and is not willing to say it
was heart disease 1t is not our bust
ness to hold inquests, however. nor to
decide whether they shall or shall not
be held. We held an autopsy and there
our work ceased 1t was up to the
coroner to do the rest"
Secretary Charlock of the Board of
Health, saws: George Freeman was
buried in Pearl City cemetery yester-
day afternoon. The certificate of burial
was blank as to the cause of death. we
evDectin" TO get a report of the physi-
clan holding the autopsy. This is not an
unusual proceeding in the case of post
mortems. The Board of Health has
nothing to do with coroner's inquiries,
that coming under the police depart
ment strictly"
Deputy High Sheriff Chillingworth
said IT was given to understand that
the cause of death was heart disease,
and let the matter go at that. Nothing
has come to me to indicate a violent
death or a case of POISONING or suicide
in any other way. From the informa-
ton I had 1 did not deem an inquest
necessary"
Freeman lived at the house of AL
bert Koerner. two doors from the Wal
kiki side of the Honolulu brewery on
Queen street. In the room are the or
binary traps of a workingman, but no
money. Mr.. Koerner says of his guest:
MI. Freeman was a drinking man, but
never saw him intoxicated. He seem
ed to be regular in his hours and habits.
His rent was paid up to last Saturday
night, and I understand he had money
in town. I have put a paddock on his
room. awaiting the pleasure of the Brit
ish consul as to his belongings"

SECRET SOCIETIES
TO BE BARRED OUT
TIC ADMIT THEIR MEMBERS
TO THE CHURCH

DIES MONIES, To-, May 2S.-By a vote
of so to 63 this afternoon the general as
sembly of tho United Presbyterian
church adopted the judiciary committees :
report with regard tC an Interpretation
of article 10 Of the creed. The action of
the assembly Is in effect to exclude mem
bers of secret orders from admission to
the church. 1t is also interpreted by
some of the delegates to mean the eX-
pulsiOn of members of the church who
now belong to the secret societies. The
final discussion on the question was long
and heated M. c. McKittrick, of Los
Angeles, Cal, said he would rather cut
off his right nand than to vote for the
exclusion of members Of secret societies
already in the church.
'If we let this report go through as it
is said DIR. McCreery, of Pittsburg, Pa.
heatedly, 1--WE are saying that men who
have been good members of the United
Presbyterian church for years must be
fathers and brothers, that if we pass
this report without amendment we are
going to make more trouble than the
United Presbyterian church mas ever
seen"
Some of the members of the assembly
who are most violently opposed tC secret
orders objected to the section of the
report of the committee which removes
the ban of the church from organizations
which do not incUlcate a Christless re-
ligion"
DIR. ]. M Wallace, of Pttsburg, op-
posed the amendment, saying he object
ed to the workiEgmen being kept out of
the church because they form themselves
into a union to protect themselves
against their oppressors.
The committee on ministerial relief re-
ported $4,000 in the permanent endow-
ment fund, an increase of $79,S90 for the
year.
The assembly indorsed a recommenda-
tion by the board Increasing the maxi
mum allowance to retired ministers from
5000 to $3.50 annually and adopted reso-
luton urging better support of the relief
board by the churches.
DR. Alexander Calhoun, from the com
mittee on board of church extension, re-
ported a permanent endowment of $l4,G0
and an increase last year OF $4,000. Dur
ing the year $4,000 wa expended.

AMENDMENT IS ACCEPTED
PASSES CUBAN CONVENTION BY
NARROW MARGIN oGE ONE VOTE.


HAVANA, May 2S-The Platt amend
ment was accepted by the Cuban con-
stitutional convention by vote of Is to
H. The actual vote was On accepting
the majority report of the committee On
relations which embodied the amend
ment with explanations of certain
clauses.
The Radicals made hard fight at the
last moment, and Senores Portuondo,
Gomez and Tamayo bitterly arraigned the
Conservatives. Senior Tamayo was par
ticularly Vindictive, and declared that
everybody who voted in favor of the
Platt amendment was p traitor to his
country The convention compelled him
to retract this statement On several
occasion personal encounters seemed i'm
minent,
Senior Gomez spoke for more than an
hour, and his speech undoubtedly won
over Senores Castro, Robau and Man
duley. He appealed to the patriotism of
delegates and rehearsed the long fight
for independence, denouncing as perjur-
ers all who favored the Platt amendment
on the ground that they had sworn to
draw up a constitution for an independ-
ent republic.
= Several Conservatives rose and asked
Senor Gomez to retract. but he absolutely
refused.
The following delegates voted against
the majority report: Gomez. Gener, Por-
tuondo, Lacret, Manduley. Cisneros, Fer
rera, Fortun, Robau, Tamayo, Silva, Cas-
trO, Zayas and Aleman.
The convention will continue it's ses-
sions, which will be devoted to drawing
up the election law.

ing, exclaims: Now will come immedi-
ate independence"

PEOPLE DISAPPOINTED

The people genarallyF are as much dis
appointed at not being granted American
citizenship as they are with the court 8
decision in regard to the tariff. The
members of the cabinet seem to favor
free trade The islands yearly budget
is $2,OOO,O0O. A rough semi-official est
mate gives an income of $500, COO a year
from the property tax; 900 from ex-
else collections under the HoIlander bill
and $750G0O from customs collections on
imports and exports to and from coun-
tries other than the United States. The
property tax will be in force july l and
assessments will be made on an esni-
mated valuation of $100,0OO,00 Excise
duties are now being collected. Porto
Ricans are generally of the opinion that
their legislature should now act. 1t is
understood that Gov Allen is giving his
earnest consideration to the pract cabii-
ity of securing at an early date free trade
relations between Portg Rico and Ger
many AS a result of the consultations
in Washington between1 Gov. Allen and
President Mckinley, Mr. Hollander VIII,
in few days, submit a report to Gov.
Allen showing the operations of the for
merS new revenue act, from which 1t W II
appear that expectations are entertained
as to the adequacy of the measure. 1t
has been fully realized that the insuIar
tion where it can dispense with the GUS
toms receipts accruing from trade with
the United States without in anywise
endangering the present secure financial
position of the island. By the provisions
of section of the Foraker bill free trade
becomes operative whenever the Porto
Rican legislature passes resolution that
an adequate system of insular taxation
has been put into operation, and Presi-
-
resolution is to proclaim free trade for
Porto Rica. If the plan now in con-
temptation is carried out, Gov Allen will
convene the legislature in extra session,
solely for the purpose Of passing this
resolution. This action will probably
be taken July 25, at which time the Hol-
lander bill will have been in force for
nearly one month and it is probable that
free trade will be declared in October.

WASHINGTON, May 28.-Lieut. H. H;
Ward, who has for several years acted
as assistant to Admiral Crowlnshield IN
the navigation bureau has been or1e ell
to inspection duty in connection with the
torpedo boats Lawrence and McDonough,
with the ultimate purpose of taking com
mand of the former vessel when she is
commissioned Mr.. Ward has an enviA-
BILE record for an officer of his years. He
administered some of the heaviest duties
of the navigation bureau during the
Spanish-American war and since. 1t was
while nominally attached to the bureau
that he slipped away to Spain in the
gUise of an English tourist during the
early days Of the war and secured in
valuable information concerning the
movements and condition of the Spanish
feet, in recognition Of which service he
received the extraordinary award of ten
numbers advancement in his grade by
the action of the senate.

DOINGs OF THE DUNKARDs.
Conference Refuses to Place Sisters
on Footing With Brothers.

LINCOLN. Neb., May 28.-The busI--
ness meetings of the national Dunkard
conference began today. 1t was decided
to hold next years conference in Eastern
PENNSYLVANIA, at a place yet to be Sc
lected, probably Philadelphia.
One Of the questions of church law
which tire Dunkards are deeply interested
in is the subject of divorce. Congress
sinai enactments are being studied by
the brethren and the matter informally
discussed. 1t is unlikely that any change
will be made in the rules of the denomi-
nation, which are firmly opposed to di-
VOrces.
The conference refused, after long dis
cussion, to make such change in the
church law as would allow the sisters the
same privileges in the conference as the
brethren.
Nearly the whole day was given over
to doctrinal discussion, the rel g,ous serv-
ices being limited to the early morning
devotional meeting and the regular ser
mon in the tabernacle at night.
