NEW CRAFT BROUGHT FROM
GERMANY.
Hackfeld and Company Will Have Her
Replace Present Wooden Scow-Goes
on Ways This Week.

The first steel vessel ever put together
in s--ese islands will probable be put
on the ways about the end of the week.
While the new craft will not be the
largest that floats in these waters the
intention is to make her thoroughly sea
worthy. She is. intended by HaCkfeld
and Company to take the place of their
present famous scow.
The new craft Will be about 100 feet
in length and have a beam of about %
feet, with a depth of S feet. The capa-
city will be about $50 tons. The scOw
is to be fitted up with engines able to
propel her from to Z knots an hour.
She will also have a steam winch with
mast and tackle to raise five tons. The
idea is to use the new craft as steam
lighter ana whenever it may be neces-
sary to transfer goods from a vessel to
the shore or to vessel the lighter will
be utilized.
At present she will probably be most
valuable for service in transferring
Oriental steerage passengers and their
effects from the. liners to the quaran-
tine island. The new sCow will have
steel deck and will also be fitted with
water tanks in order to carry water to
vessels outside the harbor. She has
been especially constructed so as to be
able to cruise to the other islands.
The scow was built in Germany and
was shipped here in parts recently. The
work of placing the parts together has
been given to the Honolulu Iron Works
The ways are being prepared Waikiki
OF the Marine Railway where Mr.. Lyle
will look after the work of launching
the new craft A special force of thir-
teen ship filters were brought here from
the Coast this week by the Honolulu
Iron Works to attend to this work OF
putting the parts of the vessel together
While nothing it to be made here the
work is just as difficult as if the entire
craft had been built in Honolulu. Mr.
Lyle will have charge of the woodwork
and the launching of the thing. She
will me at least three months in being
fitted together.

DIR. BLOUIN TALKS OF SUGAR ON
THAT ISLAND.
Sugar Percentage is Lighter But the
Cane is Heavier-Labor Conditions.
The Cane Borer.

DIR. Blouin, who succeeded DR.. Max
well as head of the Planters expert
ment station, brings a story of remark
able sugar success on Kauai, from
which he returned yesterday after a
tour of two weeks. He says that the
cane could not be better and that con-
ditions are of the best. Plantation
managers are all satisfied with the out
look.
II found on Kauai" says DIR. Blouin,
that the PERCENTAGE of sugar in the
cane is below normal this year. The
reason for this is to be found in the
abnormally heavy rainfall, which has
superinduCed a growt.. that has. been,
in this respect too rapid. At the same
time, however, the tonnage of cane is
greater, this also being due to the
rain. On the whole the actual produc-
tion of sugar per acre will be Greater,
so that more good than harm has been
done by the very wet winter.
"On Kauai there is the usual draw
back on account of the lack of what
may be called a reasonable supply of
labor. This affects all the islands much
alike. On Kauai, however, the charac-
ter and work of the laborers seem to
be satisfactory. The introduction of
Porto Ricans there has had a good eff
feet and in an unexpected way. 1t has
had the effect of knocking all the fight
out of the Japanese and steadying them
down. The object lesson of the fact
that the planters had discovered an
other avenue for obtaining labor caus-
ed the japanese to get down to business
and cease quibbling over wages and
! imaginary grievances. The labor situa-
tion may, therefore, be regarded as sat
isfactory, except in that the supply is
not what it might be.
! THE cane borer is still getting in his
/ work on some of the plantations though
he is not so bad as formerly. At Lihut
! and Kealia he is quite bad, and is do.
! ing some damage at Makaweli. On the
! drier estates, however, there is no com.
/ plant"
! DR.. Blouin has completed a tour OF
all the islands and last night began tC
make up an estimate of what the sugar
yield on all the islands would be this
year. He announced this morning the
| figure to be 100000 tons. Last year the
yield was 2S9,000 so that --.ere will bt
great increase in the yield for the
present twelve months.

MUST NOT MAKE MISTAKES
COURT TELLS CHRISTIANS TO BE
WARY.
How Member of Peniel Mission Came
to Get a Black Eye-What Judge
Wilcox Said.

We'll" remarked Judge Wilcox
people must be careful not to make
mistakes Even Christians must not
make mistakes. Now Mr.. West didn't
know that you We're a Christian. You
probably looked to him like any ordin-
airy mortal and no doubt he thought
you We're like some ordinary mortals
and had weakness for the opposite
sex. AS a matter of fact, | do not
know whether Christians are exempt
from that sort of thing. l guess the
defendant had excellent reasons for
thinking that you We're not there for
any good reason and it is certainly in
cumbent on him to protect the women
members of his family from insult
will simply reprimand him. Hereafter
Mr.. Selmon you must be more care
full how you wait about corners"
1t was in the case of Territory of
Hawaii VS.. j. II. West, assault and bat
terry on John Selmon. Selmon appeared
with his right eye in deep mourning.
West who is quite a big strapping fell
low said that he was perhaps guilty
of the battery but there We're very
extenuating circumstances. His sister
had been coming along Beretana
street from Punchbowl when she no.
ticed Selmon pass her. He turned and
began to follow her She quickened

she walked slow and so did he. The
man kept looking into her face con-
tinually. She stopped by the Methodist
church thinking that the fellow would
pass her but he checked his pace too.
Then she hurried over to her brother s
house and told him about her expert
ence.
West said that he saw Selmon peep
ing through a banana thicket into the
yard and, going outside, inquired if he
was looking for some one. Selmon re-
piled that it was none of Vests busi-
ness whereupon the latter poked Sell
mon in the right eye. Selmon declared
that West would have to pay for that
blow.
Selmon claimed that he had not fol-
lowed the woman at all and did not
know her. He was a member of Peniel
Mission and had made an appointment
with a woman friend to meet her by
the church. He had been waiting for
her when West came up and hit him,

WILL HEAR TURF SCANDAL
ALLEGED DOPING" OF WELLER
UP TOMORROW.
Cunningham and Morgan Alleged to be
Implicated in Affair-Cases Will be
Heard Before Judge Wilcox.

The turf scandal over the alleged, at
tempt to "doue" Prince David's race
horse Weller will not be aired In court
until tomorrow. Both w. H. Cunning
ham and ]. A. Morgan charged with
having entered into a conspiracy to do
the job were arrested yesterday on
warrants charging them with cOnspi-
racy but inasmuch as the warrants
were not returnable until today their
cases will not be called until tomorrow.
Just how Cunningham and Morgan
appear in the attempt to dope the race
horse is not clear, Weller was made
Cup race. June 11th. Billy McCloskey,
Aggravation and Amaranth were the
others in the race. Weller was INSTALL
ed as favorite selling for $10 Billy Nc
Closkey brought Sc and the others as
the field, 81. Soon there was a marked
support of McCloskey and his price
jumped to $S This was surprising as
Weller was admitted to be the best OF
the horses in the race.
That evening Thomas Leepe a stable
boy claimed that he had been approach
ed by a man and handed pill of alleg-
ed dope" to give to Weller so that the
= horse would be incapacitated from win
ming the race. The boy was to receive
pill to the horse but reported II to the
jockey who in turn acquainted Prince
David with the affair.
Cunningham and Morgan are claimed
to be at the back of the scheme to dope
the horse although the particular ma
ture of their part in the conspiracy will
probably not be made clear until the
case comes up for a hearing tomorrow
Both defendants are out on bonds.

MORE CASH FOR THE SESSION
EXPENSES.
Notice of an Act to Appropriate An
other Ten Thousand Dollars-Current
Expenses Bill Discussed.

Notice was given in the House this
morning of an act to appropriate $40, 00O
more for the expenses of the session
The Legislature has gone broke agar
and il is calculated that at least $4,000
more will be needed to carry on the
session till the business is done. The
notice of the forthcoming bill came
from Makekau, VINO did not state what
sum he proposed to appropriate. The
sum for which a bill is being prepared
is 100000 however.
Emmeluth objected to any more ex-
pense appropriations He did not want
the Legislature to make a record as the
most expensive on the face of the earth
and thought that the finance commit.
tee ought to be consulted before a new
bill was brought in.
The 100000 appropriated for the pres.
ent extra session has all gone and the
house and senate are without funds
to pay their officers, typewriting anc
printing bills, etc. 1t is said that Coop
er would veto such a bill.
After Makekaus notice the House
settled down to consideration of the
current expenses bill. Hihio gave q
resolution to insert an item of $40, ,00l
for the Papalana road in Lahaina tC
extend it to Kapoulu.
kawaihoa introduced a resolution tC
set aside $46,55 for roads and bridges
in the district of Wailuku. BeckleS
offered a resolution to appropriate $500
for the landings al Kamalo and Pu.
koO. The resolution were referred t
the island committees concerned.
Work was begun on the Board o.
| Health appropriations but owing to
/ long wrangle over setting aside money
| to run n steamer to the leper settle
ment, not much progress was made
! Hoogs vigorously opposed the steamer
proposition. A majority favor 1t how
/ ever, and it is likely to pass.
General expenses" of the board wer,
raised from ten to thirteen thou
| sand and support of non-leprou!
children of lepers' was raised from
! $4,000 to 100000. The item of medicine!
for city dispensary was cut out and tn,

passed without change and segregation
and support of lepers was raised

Mr.. FITCH CHARGES FRAUD
SENSATION IN MATTER OF SILVA
ESTATE.
Administrators Appointed on Incorrect
Information-Old Nurseryman Had
Wife-Other Charges.

Thomas Fitch has filed in the Cirt
cult Court a sensational petition in
the matter of the estate of the late
de Silva, the old florist of Punchbowl
who died some months ago after hay
ing imbibed a considerable quantity of
wine. Fraud is charged against the
administrator, j. A. M. Osorio, mana
ger of a department of Hoffschlaeger
s. Company's business and a leader of
the Portuguese colony. and it is re-
quested that he be removed. Consul
Canavarro also figures in the case, it
being through his representations to
the court that the appointment of Oso-
rio was made.
When Silva died it was supposed that
he owned considerable property and
had a lot of money. Consul Canavar-
ro took charge of his effects and the
public was surprised at the statement,
officially made, that the estate was in
significant Together with the original
inventory was a petition that Osorio
be appointed administrator. The Con-
sui stated that Silva had no immedi-
ate family of his own but had brothers
and sisters in Madeira.
1t now appears, according to Mr.
Fitch and his evidence, that Silva had
no brothers or sisters in Madeira al
all, and, on the other hand, and max
ing quite a difference in the case, left
a wife at Demerara, British Guiana
This wife, who has the right and sole
right, of naming an administrator
heard of the death of her husband in
March last and Immediately sent on g
statement of her wishes and instruc-
tions as to what should be done.
The accusations filed today charge
Osorio, among other things, with hav-
ing falsely stated the value of Silva's
personal estate, which was returned al
$75 when more than $500 is alleged tC
have. already been realized from the
sale of portions of it, 1t is also charged
that Osorio has sold a portion of the
land belonging to the estate without
authority or order of the court and de-
livered a deed for the same.

CONSOLIDATION OF COMPANIES
IMMINENT.
Practically Close This Morning But
Again Shut Off-Merely Question
of Time Now.

There came nearer being consolida-
ton between the Honolulu Market
Company and Metropolitan Maet Com
pany yesterday afternoon and this
morning than ever before during the
deal that has been pending for the past
two months. At one time the deal was
praC tICduy closed, but matters came
up that thwarted it and this afternoon
the situation is much as it was before,
save that prospects of an agreement
are imminent and may materialize at
any moment.
The difference between the two con-
Germs is purely matter of price, and
the desire of Mr.. Waller to obtain the
endorsement by the directors of the
metropolitan company of the new con-
dttiOns. A settlement of the difference
and the desires of the directors may
be obtained at any moment.
AS u matter of fact, however, the
Honolulu Market Company is now
| practically and actually in the hands
of the rival company. For some weeks
the former has been handln~ the meats
of the latter The Honolulu Market
| Company has been running behind
steadily and is now in the position of
either selling or quitting the business.
| Today nearly all of the force of the
market was discharged. Only two
| butchers, a bookkeeper and the man
| ager were retained inside of the es-
| tablishment. Mr.. SChweitzer, who is a
| principal owner of the concern, says
| that it is not paying and has not paid.
| He was in hopes today that the deal
with the Metropolitan company had
gone through. His idea is to reduce
| expenses so that ends can be met until
the sale is finally completed The Me-
| tropolitan people seem to be waiting
! for an acceptance of their figure, pro-
! vided the deal is approved by the di
| reCtors. In that uncertain state the
matter still stands.
! Last night the Honolulu Market
! Company telephone its. customers to
place their orders this morning with
! the Metropolitan Meat Company. This
| has been generally done. All day the
! Honolulu Market has been practically
without business, and the situation has
been one of waiting to see what would
| be dene.

WRIGHT WILL ACL ALONE
BUCKS AGAINST THE EXECUTIVE
COUNCIL.
Says He Will Not Submit Matters Up
on Which the Law Empowers Him to
Act Alone.

Treasurer Wright has taken i new
stand with regard to the executive
councils of the heads of departments,
and there is talk of quite a disagree
ment between him and acting governor
Cooper, on the question of what should
be submitted for discussion by the
council.
1t was reported this morning that
the treasurer and the acting governor
were at loggerheads on the proposition
and that Wright would not attend the
council today. He was present how
ever with the other heads of depart
ments.
The immediate cause of the disagree
ment was said to be the granting of a
water front liquor license, which
Wright regarded as his own business
and about which he did not intend To
consult the council. The license in
question Is that for the new brewery.
to manufacture and sell malt liquor.
In the matter of granting such g
license" said Mr.. Wright when asked
regarding his position, the treasurer
has sole power In this instance l have
left the matter of location with the
sheriff, who will have to look after the
place.
MY position is simply that it is not
necessary for me to submit to the con-
ference of heads of departments, any
matters except those which the law
says l must confer with the executive
upon, In the matter of such license
as this malt liquor license, under the
law l act alone. My position is sim
ply that l submit what the law says I
must act upon together with the
governor. For the rest 1 am Tesponsi-
BILE alone"
