HAWAIIANS REALIZE
MONARCHY Is LOST
Their Duty Set Forth in Newspaper
Published by Delegate Will
cox,z Wife

HONOLULU, Nov. 9-Mrs. Theresa
Wilcox, wife Of the Hawaiian delegate to
Congress, has started a semi-weekly pa
per in this city, devoted to the Home Rule
Republican party. It is named the Home
Rule Republican. S. Meheula, clerk Of
the House Of Representatives, is the edi-
tor. The first issue Of the paper appeared
a week ago. In the prospectus the editor
says in speaking Of the establishment Of
American government here:
I'VE, the Hawaiians, have had this in
estimable boon conferred on us through
the eXigencies and necessities Of the
United States in their Spanish-American
v ar. The past is gone and irrevocable
Some of us Hawaiians no doubt would
gladly welcome back the former condi-
ton of things, If things could be restored
to just how they were during the mon
archy, but the majority of us recognize
the futility of such a dream and desire
with all our hearts to educate such of our
race to the point Of understanding and
appreciating the glorious boon of equal
rights of the free and unrestricted ballot.
1.-THE Hawaiian Is now standing at the
crossways Of life, undecided which path
way to take. The actions Of some of
those who should have been his guides
and friends have created distrust A new
order Of things has been thrust upon him.
He Is eager and anxious to do his duty
and to qualify himself for the new ones"
The paper is published in both Hawaiian
and English and is mostly devoted to po-
litiCal subjects.

CARS COLLIDE
At A CROSSING
Passenger Is Thrown to
the Ground and
Injured.
Confusion of the Motorman
Said to Be Cause Of
Accident.
Oakland once San Francisco Gail


Two cars Of the Oakland Transit Com
pany collided at $50 o'clock this after
noon at East Fourteenth street and
ErUitvale avenue, throwing the fifty or
more passengers into confusion and seri-
ously in5uring one. Mrs. F. NJ. Colvin Of
6Sl Montgomery street, Fruitvale, was
thrown 10 the ground so heavily that she
received a severe confusion of the head
that was subsequently treated by DR.. j.
Il Ca1len. None Of the other passengers
were hurt, but all were more or less
shaken Up.
The cOlliding cars belong to the Hay
wards and FTuitvale avenue divisions OF
the Transit COmpany's system The Hay
wards car was going toward Oakland ana
the FruitVale car was heading toward
EruitVale- When about half way across
the tracks at the corner OF Fourteenth
street and Fruitvale avenue the FruitVale
car was struck near the end by the Hay
wards car, which was moving at a fair
rate Of speed. So great was the impact
that the FruitVale car was lifted off The
tracks and turned almost completely
mingled with the cries Of the frightened
passengers, few Of whom had time TO
Jump on account of the suddenness of the
collision.
Just who is responsible for the accident
has not yet been determined by the rail-
road officials. It is said to be the result
of misunderstanding on the part of the
motormen, though at the point of colli-
sion the way is clear and the Fruitvale
car is understood to have the right OF
way.

FIND A FORTUNE
ON A WANDERER
Police Discover Big Bank
Account on Suppos-
ed Pauper.
Oakland Office San Francisco Call,
1118 Broadway, Nov. 16.

1llS broadway, NOV. 10.
Picked up on the street as a pauper,
wandering about in rags and homeless,
aged Peter Flynn astounded the police to-
day when $4,000 balance to his credit in
a handbook was found on his person at
the City Prison.
The bare fact that he is Peter Flynn,
about 65 years of age, is all that the po-
lice have been able to CLEAN from their
strange lodger. He will be detained at the
prison until something more is learned of
his antecedents The old man refuses to
disclose a single bit of information about
himself or his hoard of wealth represent
ed by the handbook entries. Externally
there was nothing about his appearance
to suggest that Flynn was other than q
decrepit and poverty stricken old man
who would end his days as a public
charge.
He had only 30 cents In coin in his pos
session when the police took him In charge.
The records of his bank account show that
1t has not been touched for several years.
1--WE have tried our best to get some
line on the old mans connections" said
Jailer Swain tonight, "but SO far we have
been unsuccessful. Flynn seems to be suf-
fering from some sort Of brain trouble.
He acts as If he were dazed. He certainly
is a mystery to u.s.
The old man has been a familiar char
acter on the streets for some time. At in
tervals he would disappear from view, but
after short absence would reappear and
resume his aimleSS wanderings about the
fort will be made by the authorities to
have legal guardian appointed for their
mysterious ward, that he may be given
proper attention and care

SAYS SIGNATURE
IS A FORGERY
Court Holds Mrs. ~LOttie
Logan Did Not Sign
Release.
Difference in Writing So
Glaring a Blind Man
Gould See It"
Oakland Office San Francisco Call,

u
Ills Broadway, Nov Is.
To the satisfaction of Judge Hall it was
demonstrated that the signature of Mrs.
Lottie Logan that appears appended to
release of a mortgage is a forgery. Carl
E1senschmel, the expert penman, informed
the court that the name was a rank imi-
taton, and pointed out the discrepancies
that existed between the forged hand
writing and the genuine signature of Mrs.
Logan.
In rendering his decision setting aside
the alleged release Judge Hall said that
1T hardly required an expert to see the
differences between the two exhibits, as
they are SO bald that a blind man could
distinguish them. He took occasion to ut
ter criticisms against j. A. Parker, real
estate broker, and j. ROBINSON witnesses
for the defendant, saying that he thought
that either one of them knew more than
they had told about the spurious sigma
ture. When he testified Robinson said
that he had taken the release to Mrs.
Logan in San Francisco, where she signed
it. Mrs. Logan'S physician testified that
she was too i'll at the time Robinson said
he called to have seen any one.
The forgery is the outgrowth of a suit
by G. U. Ochs against William Clark to
foreclose on a loan of $500 on an assigned
note from Mrs. Logan. The security for
the note was some Placer County land
and an Endorsement by Mrs. V. R.. Par
ker for two lots in Berkeley. Clark de-
foreclosure proceedings were brought
against him the release of mortgage from
Mrs. Logan suddenly made its appear
area.

STUDENTS WILL
TAKE The STUMP
To Do Campaign w ork
for the School Bonds
in Alameda. =

ALAMEDA, Nov. 16.-High school boy
orators on the stump, arguing for the
carrying Of the 100000 school bonds. will
be the feature of the campaign now being
waged in favor of the proposition.
Next week the young speakers are to be
selected, posted upon the issue involved
and instructed how to do politics in the
best and patriotic sense of the phrase.
3. n. Delaney, president of the Board of
Trade. will give the chosen spell-binding
youths a series of heart-to-heart lectures
on the latest improved methods Of carry
ing contest at the polls.
There are more than $500 pupils in daily
attendance at the public schools, and it is
confidently calculated by the supporters
through the persuasion of their children,
be induced to take an active interest in
promoting the success of the undertaking
Class meetings and mass meetings OF
the scholars of the high school and the
several grammar schools will be held.
The necessity Of bonds for school i'm
provements and, extension will be ex-
planned by the duly authorized speakers,
and each and every pupil will be urged to
do all he or she can to place the matter
before parents in its practical light.
With few exceptions all the members of
the Board of Trade are for the issuance
of school bonds. President Delaney is
enthusiastic over the plan Of enlisting the
school children in the battle for bonds.
A. w. Scott Of the high school twelve
brainy boys" said. he. II will form
them into central committee and we
will lay out our programme for meetings
and work just as If we were conducting a
city or county election campaign The
bonds must carry. 1t is a public need.
When we enroll the 250O school children of
Alameda in the cause, as we expect to do
there can be but one result, and that will
be victory. Each child will be a walking
delegate, so to speak, to see that the
bonds are not overlooked. We will com
lnence our labors next week and will have
to be lively, as the election occurs on
November 29"

AGAIN OPPOSES
SHIPPING BILL
Principle Not Believed In
by Congressman
Burton.

CALL BUREAU, 1406 G STREET, N.
W., WASHINGTON, Nov Ex-senator
Hanna Of Ohio, who is one of the chief
advocates of the ship subsidy legislation,
again finds the strongest opposition in his
own camp. Representative T. E. Bur-
ton of Cleveland, Hanna's home city, has
returned to the capital entertaining more
strongly than ever his old feeling against
the shipping measure.
AS Burton will again father the river
and harbor bill, the history of the last
session may be repeated IN the defeat of
the pet schemes of both Hanna and Bur-
ton In speaking of the subsidy bill Bur-
ton said:
II am opposed to the measure just as
L was last winter. do not believe in
be permanently effective In building up
our merchant marine, nor that its bene-
fits would accrue In the way of reduced
freight rates for our agricultural and
Congress failed to pass the subsidy bill
last winter. It failed to pass the river
measure was attributed to the failure of
the former. Leading advocates of appro-
priations for river and harbor improve
est in urging the ship subsidy legislation
were responsible for the defeat of the
river and harbor bill. This impeachment
was not vigorously denied 1t was be-
lieved then and is believed now that the
measure which bore Burton's name would
have passed had fatal opposition not de-
veloped against the subsidy bill
President Roosevelt will recommend
legislation looking toward the upbuilding
Of the American merchant marine He
will not, however, suggest any specific
measure or means cf accomplishing this
result. Ship subsidy is Hanna's hobby;
rivers and harbors are Burtons. Each
has his heart set upon securing the enact
ment of the legislation he desires AS a
consequence of Burton's opposition to the
subsidies, Hanna may stand in the way
of river and harbor legislation.
