light, Though Company is Held
Responsible for Loss by Bonds.

There have been no Developments in
the robbery OF the Kinau's mail room
since the publication Sunday in The
Republican of the exclusive story Of
the daring deed. The authorities are
more than ever mystified over the
case. and are worrying a great deal.
Until the Honokaa Office. and cores

which was stolen. are heard from, the
exact amount of the theft will not be
known. Whatever it is. however. the
Wilder Company will probably have to
make good the loss. as the robbery
happened on their ship, and the com
pany is under a heavy bond TO faith
fully deliver the mails carried by
them
1t is the opinion along the front ami
amonE the different officers of steam
ers carrying mails between the islands
that the postofHce people were partly
to blame in allowing the mail to re-
main all night on the vessel instead
OF making arrangements to call for It
as soon as the steamer arrived. especi-
ally as she was expected in the even

time. The mail was left on the boat,
however. until daylight and the pack
age boy ordered to remain with it in
the room. This he did not do. and
cannot account for the loss of the bag.
A knife with the blade open was
found in the mail room on Saturday
after the discovery of the robbery.
and yesterday il was turned over u
the police. This is about the only clew
that has so far been developed, al
though ii may lead TO something i'm
portant if the owner of the knife can
be found and the story OF how II came

Since the finding of the knife in the
package room the theory has been ad-
yanced that the sack containing the
treasure was cut open and the outer
sack thrown overheard while the YES
sci was AT sea. Then the robber made
his escape from the Kinau on arrival
bere with the other passengers having
the inner sack in his possession The
theory makes the finding OF the knife
an important piece Of evidence. which

STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, August 3.-Prices opened

sumption of work Both the United States
Steel stocks rose a point over last night
and ST. Paul rose a point and fraction.
Prices drifted aimlessly for the greater

was published whether for the purpose
of taking profits by room traders or

that document would be hard to say. The
rather large increase in the loan item
was not strengthening factor, but the
increase in cash largely offset its effect
on the surplus reserve item. The selling

urgent and carried prices rather precipi-

The closing itself was weak and near the

New Method of Preserving Fruit,

The weekly advance sheets of the gov
eminent consular reports contain the fol-
lowing from Consular General Guenther
dated Frankfort, June 5, which will be of
very considerable interest to fruit grow

The German consul general at Sydney
reports that the agricultural department
of Victoria has recently made experiments
with reference to the preservation of fresh
fruits. Pears and peaches packed in the
ordinary boxes for shipment were sub
jected to the vapors of hydrocyanic gas
The fruits were then taken out of the
boxes and separately wrapped in tissue
paper. Some of them were again treated
with the gas, and the whole lot was placed
in dry room at a temperature of 40 de-
grees f. and kept there for seven weeks
When the fruits were taken out they were
in an excellent state Of preservation, es-

pears, but the peaches felt hard to the
touch, retained their fresh appearance
and showed no decayed spots, as the
germs had all been killed by the gas.
