JONATHAN WILL SAVE JOHN
STARTLING PREDICTION OF AN
DREW CARNEGIE.
Thinks That Europe Will Combine to
Crush Great Britain But Uncle Sam
Will Check Them.

LONDON, June 12-"Mark my word"
said Andrew Carnegie tonight, the
time is coming when the continental
powers Will combine to smash up this
little island of Great Britain. When
that happens she will have to turn to
the United States for help.
Il feel certain it will not be refused.
The United States will step in and say
don't They will act just as Great
Britain did in the Spanish American
war. What she did then was great,
and it is not half realized yet"
When Mr. Carnegie gave utterance to
these sentiments he was i'm the Lang
ham hotel, London, where he had ar
rived from Scotland for the chanluer of
commerce gatherings. Until tonight he
had steadtaStly refused 10 ue lutcl-
viewed
Resuming the topic of Anglo-Ameri-
can relations Mr.. Carnegie said: II be-
lieve in the community of the English
speaking races, by which l mean that
the American and the British are now
closer than ever before.
could you get better instance than
the visit of the delegates of the New
York Chamber of Commerce to Windsor
last Saturday? | suggested it, and
King Edward took up the idea tho
roughly. 1t was a fitting commence
ment of the new reign.
Il know how deeply interested King
Edward is i'm the United States. | have
known this since the time, years ago,
when | drove him on a locomotive in
the United States, which, by the way,
he did not forget when we met under
different conditions.
The idea that the visit OF our dele
gates to Windsor can be in any way
construed as King Edwards recogni-
ton of American commercial superior
ity is all nonsense. The king is full OF
tact and of friendship for our country"
DO you think" MIR. Carnegie was
asked, that British enterprise can be
sufficiently stimulated to meet Ameri-
can competition"
"Oh, they can't compete with us" re-
piled Mr.. Carnegie with smile.
Would advise the British people to
place their faith in combinations" said
the interviewer.
I'm out of business, responded Mr..
Carnegie, and L know nothing AZ out
combinations"

HAWAII APPROPRIATIONS ESIEES CHARGE IS LOST
MISSING DOCUMENT IN THE
SODERGREN CASE.
The Charge to the Jury Not i'm the
Record and Typewriter Copy is
Gone.

LOST-One Judges charge from the
United States district court, delivered
by the Hon. NJ. Nj. Estee in the case
of the United states against Captain
sodergren. Kinney, Ballou and Nc
Clanahan would like to have it recover
ed.
Judge Estee spent two hours this
morning trying To straighten out the
record in the Sodergren case so that
papers might be prepared on appeal.
Sodergren wanted to leave for the coast
on the Zealandia and has been trying to
get ready for long time. 1t was found
that the charge TO the jury was miss
ing, that it did not appear correctly in
the original transcript, nor in the notes
of the official stenographer, and much
of the time was devoted to efforts to
correct the report.
Estee's charge was read to the jury,
and the typewriter copy has disap-
peared. According to the judge and
! all the attorneys concerned the record
/ was grossly incorrect, and Kinney pro-
ceeded to gently roast the steno%ra-
| pher. Once or twice the judge showed
signs of some anger, and he called up
on the attorneys and others to ac-
count for the taking away of the do
Cument. No one seemed to know what
had become of it.
Judge Estee ordered inserted in the
record a comparison he remembered
drawing between assault and battery
by a sea captain as alleged in the So
dergren case, and a similar offense on
plantation, and other important
/ amendments were made.
At IL o'clock court adjourned, with
out having a complete record. District
Attorney Dunno and the lawyers for
! the defense will make up record for
the judge to approve. II may not be
able to speak English" said the court
when some queer extracts from the
record were read, but 1 can write it
and l know that l carefully wrote this
charge and read it all to the jury" The
judge objected to extracts quoting his
charge in language that was not in
telligible.

At the mauka entrance to the Judi

following described lands, to wit:
APANA COR LOT A, A. w. MAIOHO)

feet on Eva side; by Hiram K. Anahu
sos feet on mauka side; and by a 9-foot
Roadway 145.5 feet on Waikiki side
Area 1920 square feet, more or less.
Less than one-half of this Apana
will be condemned for 50-feet street
in order to extend Young Street Eva
way or towards Hotel street, BUT
WHAT REMAINS OF THE LOT
MAUKA AND MAKAI will hereafter
become enhanced in value on account
of said proposed extension and also on
account of their fronting on the new
street A RARE CHANCE FOR
CAPITALISTS.
APANA fOR LOT B, A.W. MAIOHO)
Bounded by Rose K. Anahu So feet on
makai side; by said 9-foot Roadway
1856 feet on Eva side; by Government
and Bishop Estate about so feet on
mauka side; and nv Pahau Estate
about 120 feet on Waikiki side. Area
1880 square feet, more or less.
This Apana 4, the outlet t. which is
Printers Lane leading out to Punch
bowl Street, could be subdivided into
THREE EQUAL SQUARE LOTS, with
an outlet to each facing EN- way on
to said 9-foot Roadway; and the fur
thest mauka lot, when Apana 4 is
subdivided. will still be within 300 feet
of the proposed Young Street EXten-
sion, thus eventually doing away with
the use of Printers Lane as far as this
Apana 4 is concerned. THIS is A
GOOD CHANCE FOR INVESTORS.

of purchasers. For further particulars

GET ACQUAINTED.

The more people you know the
greater your chance Of finding
useful friends among them. 1t is
silly to say you do not care what
others do or think about you, for
you may want help or advice any
day. The same principle obtains
as to labor-saving conveniences.
1t is much better to get a light
by pressing a button at your he'd
side than to rise, strike a match
and set the gas going. The more
things you know how to do, the,
more thoroughly safe-guarde'a
you are in emergencies and times
of trouble. 1t is ignorance along
these lines which induces loss
of time, money and health. "0h,
if | had only known of it in
time," is the sad, deploring cry
of multitudes who find themselves
in the grasp of some disease from
which a certain remedy might
have delivered. them. Now, in

and ear. 1t is reasonable there.

1t is palatable as honey and con-
