CHINESE HOPEFUL
OF CITIZENSHIP
News From Washington That
May Change Their
Status.

local attorney says he has received
advices from the acting Commissioner
General of immigration at Washington
which indicate that the matter of adj
hitting Chinese citizens of the old Re-
public of Hawaii to citizenship in the
United States has not been definitely de-
cided. That official says 1.-The status of
Chinese citizens of the former Republic
Of Hawaii is now receiving the consid
Grafton of the Honorable, the Attorney
General of the United States, and you
will be informed by the Bureau as to
what, If any, additional evidence will be
required of your said client to secure
admission to the ports of the United
States"
T. Kat Poo, local Chinese merchant,
IS the man who has had this question
brought up. He can go to the Mainland
as a chinese merchant under the pro-
visions of the Chinese Exclusion laws,
but he desires to go there as an Ameri-
can citizen by reason of his having been
a citizen of the Republic of Hawaii. A
recent Treasury decision ruled against
T. Kat Poo leaving Honolulu for the
Mainland except as a merchant and an
appeal was made against it. The Chi
nese are hopeful, in view of the inde-
cision of the Washington authorities that
Trey will be admitted to the full privi-
leees of American citizenship.

''HOSS'' HIRE
IS CHEAPER
Trust is Busted by the
Laws Hand.
BAIRD DID THE WORK
Uncle Sans Attorney Told Livery
men To Break Up or Be Ar
rested and They Broke.

The liverymens combination in re-
straint of@trade went to smash yes
terday. They made an unconditional
surrender to United States District
Attorney Baird, after the latte had
trained his legal guns on their posi-
ton, which they had considered i'm
pregnable before the Advertiser made
it's attack upon the plumbing trust.
The Honolulu Livery Stables Asso-
citation, which was born on November
l, has been completely crushed. Kin
ney, Ballou & McClananan, attorneys
for the association, came before Colo
mel Baird yesterday forenoon, stating
that the association had agreed to dis
solve their contract of agreement by
which they had tied each other up
with penalties.
This agreement is worth no more
now than the paper on which it is
written. Colonel Baird says it was not
actually trust, but strictly speaking,
a combination in restraint Of trade, Or
ganized for the purpose of making
prices to suit the members, and not
for the benefit of the public. Five sta
bles belonged to the association. The
hackmen were not members or parties
to the agreement.
The association was formed under
the guise of a corporation, and the in
tention was to put up prices and hold
them there. They succeeded in doing
this and abiding by the associations
provisions until Colonel Baird suddenly
announced to the public that "all
trusts must GO" All trusts have gone,
receive the death blow. The liverymen
had been given until today to make
their answer to Baird'S demand, and
they did this a day ahead of time.

KAlAKUA'S OLD
HOME is SOLD
japanese Buys House Where
Royalty Once Made
Merry.

One by one the homes-once they
were called palaces-of the former
kings, queens, princesses and princes
of Hawaii, are being disposed Of under
the auctioneer's hammer; In many
cases to purchasers whom these royal
owners would not have delgned to
greet with even SO much as a glance
when they were clothed with the maj
esty of their royal prerogatives.
Yesterday as the noon whistles were
sounding a once royal residence was
knocked down by Auctioneer Morgan
to a Japanese to whom sentiment in
rel1c-worshiping were foreign.
To the buyer it was not sentiment,
but dollars. One hundred and fifty
dollars cash was paid for the house
which was once the favorite recreation
residence of the late King Kalakaua.
Honouakaha is the name of the
premises on Punchbowl street near
Queen, where King Kalakaua and
Queen Kapiolani were often wont to
pass many days of quietude from the
affairs of state, and where lately the
two princes and heirs of Queen Kapio-
lanf, David and Cupid, made their
town home.
Away back in the COS, when KaIa-
kaua, then plain David Kalakaua, was
etH eiuploSee OIL the government, he
had decided to him these premises.
They came to him through his kahua-
Ali, kinimaka, one of the chiefs who
brought up David to manhood Dur
ing the days before he was elected
king, and when creditors pressed KaIa-
kaua for money, Honouakaha was sold
at public auction. 1t did not pass out
of the hands of the family, for his
wife, kapiolani, bought the property
back.
During the palmy days Of his reign
as King the place was used as a rest
ing place. 1t was near his boathouse.
and at that time was somewhat seclud
ed and apart from the busy portion of
the town. In one part were houses
for his many retainers, and many were
the luaus and other entertainments
given there. 1t was .prettily hedged in
with ii plants.
Upon his death, queen Kapiolani
used the place for her town residence,
and until i'll health compelled her to
keep to her Waikiki residence. where
she died. Honouakaha was decided to
the two princes, and they resided there
until their aunt's death, when they
took up their residence at Waikiki.
Since then the old house has gone
into rapid decay.

TENANTS ELECTED
BY HEALTH BOARD
Filthy Winam Property Taken
in Hand by Sanitary
Officials.

Executive Officer Pratt, of the Board
of Health, High Sheriff Brown and
two policemen evicted the tenants on
the Winam property in Palama on
Wednesday. The tenants had been Civ
en- notice by the Board of Health to
vacate the premises, and most of
them had complied with the order.
Nearly score, however, refused to
bulge.
These were Chinese, only one Ha-
waiian family living there. When the
high sheriff arrived, the tenants were
given half an hour to get out, which
they did with extreme haste, bag and
baggage. Few of them had any
great amount of household effects. and
they quickly found other habitations.
The houses We're then closed and a
policeman placed on guard, and this
precaution will be continued until the
houses and premises are placed in a
sanitary condition.

ESSAY POLO
A Warm New Sport for
the MoanaIua
Grounds.

Polo will hereafter be one OF the
prominent features of Honolulu out-of-
door sports in which a number of
young society men will participate reg
ularly every Saturday afternoon at
Moanalua. By invitation of S. E. Da-
mon and c. w. Dickey a number of
gentlemen went to MoanaIua last Sat
urday and former a temporary polo
club. Mr.. Damon has allowed the club
the use of a piece of land in Moanalua
in the largest valley on the estate
which is about half a mile from the
government road.
This has been laid out as a polo field,
and although only fairly well adapt
ed to the needs of club or this kind,
is prettily situated with surroundings
from which spectators can obtain a
splendid view of the game. 1t is ABOUT
200 by 100 yards in extent.
E. S. Damon was chosen president,
G. w. Dickey treasurer, and John
Fleming secretary. They We're also
appointed a committee to perfect or
ganization. The club already owns
sticks and balls, having imported them
from Chicago. Those who have an
nounced their intention of becoming
members of the club have secured
mounts" and there is In consequence,
quite d uTdlIl Oh the supply OF small
sized ponies in Honolulu. The club
has agreed to meet for practice games
at 3 o'clock every Saturday afternoon.
On New Years s. day the first game In
Honolulu was played. None of the
players had any previous instruction,
and the mounts were of course I'M
used to the rough sport. There are a
number of gentlemen in Honolulu who
are familiar with the game, and have
agreed to coach the club members.
The greatest difficulty experienced by
the players was in hitting the ball and
mastering the intricacies of welding
the mallets without hitting other play
ers. The ponies need hard training,
and for this reason frequent playing is
necessary. Nearly score of carriages
were driven to Moanalua on New
Years day, filled with ladies and gen
tlemen who have taken an interest in
the game. The club hopes to train a
team to compete with the Maui four
which is said to be quite proficient or
