STRIKE OF
FISHERMEN
The Salmon Caichers Still Refuse
10 Work-Tacoma Now In II

The strike situation among the To-
cal fishermen IL unchanged today.
Neither side shows any signs or
yielding, and no offers OF arbitration
have been made. The situation be-
comes more serious since an embar-
go has also been declared on the TIA
coma dealers. Yesterday these firms
led by the Pacific Cold Storage Co.
refused 10 nccede To tho demands OF
the fishermen. The result is that
there IL not seine today in the up
per Sound waters. AS the season for
selnlng In Puget Sound lasts only a
few weeks longer II IL Injurious In
the extreme to the sailing and can
ming people TO have a strike AT this
time. Today no sailing or canning
is being done either I'm this city or
Tacoma. As all these establishments
have n large force OF men at work
canning and sailing until the season
ends at Christmas Il means n great
loss TO them to have TO remain idle
SEQ Men Are Out
Taking the fishermen and cannery
employees together fully 800 men are
idle ms result OF the strike. The
fish are already becoming scarce and
within few weeks win be entirely
gone. II therefore means big loss
90 the local salmon market unless
the strike Is speedily settled.
No threats OF violence have as yet
been expressed Both sides are wait
Ing for some action on the part OF the
other The local union il strong and
Il IS said there Is no possibility OF the
canneries securing non-union men.
Yesterday "A scowload OF seines came
I'm from the fishing grounds. AS the
men would not work Il was thought
best to bring the apparatus in and
store Il for the winter.

Of potassium is the most powerful an

PERMANGANATE OF POTASH

Ava received advices from Paris of a
formula which French savants believe
may cure or stay the ravages of lep-
rosy. A doctor who says that it may
be efficacfous in the treatment of lep-
rosy, used it in the treatment of
gangrene with success. 1t is a simple
remedy, nothing more nor less than a
solution of permanganate of potassium,
in which bread-crumbs are soaked for
application to the diseased parts.
NJ. Toffrin, Of Paris, who sends the
formula to NJ. vizzavona, is anxious
that the simple remedy be given a trial
in Honolulu amongst iepers in the early
stages of the disease. He intends eX-
perimenting on lepers in Europe and de-
sires to compare results, in case the
Board of Health here will permit ex-
periments to be made. In his letter to

the mlniSterlat petition protesting
against the holding of sham battle
on Sunday. but after consultation with
Col. J. w. Jones he decided to allow
the camp to be held. In the evening
other petitions circulated among lay
men We're also presented. The follow
ing is copy:
Honolulu, H. T., Oct "a, 1901
To his Honor, Sanford B. Dole, Governor
of the Territory of Hawaii:
Dear Sir:-We, the undersigned. pro-
test against the National Guard of this
Territory being allowed to have artillery
practice and sham battles on Sundays.
We believe that few, If any, precedents
can be found for such action in any other
of the States or Territories of the United
States.
Therefore. we call your attention to
the proposed official exercises of the Ma
tional Guard of Hawaii on Sunday next,
and do most respectfully ask that you, as
the official head of the National Guard,
issue orders countermanding the propos-
ed Dissertation of the Sabbath.
Governor Dole's reasons for the re-
fusal last night to heed the ministerial
protest are given as follows:
Il have received one petition. which
comes from the clergy of the city, re-
questing that no sham battles be held on
Sunday. AS the military exercises in
question are not sham battle, but rath-
er have the nature of target practice, I
saw no reason for granting the request. -
When the governor was informed that
other petitions had been formulated and
would probably be handed to him very
soon. he replied, that in that case he
would not be able to give his final de-
cision before these petitions had been
seen by him.
Colonel Jones, speaking of the pro-
test of the Ministerial Union yesterday
said:
II cannot see why the people waited
until all arrangements for the camp had
been made before they entered their pro-
test. Our intention of. going into camp
on Sunday had been announced for over
a month in the public press. Practically
and technically this is not a violation
of the Sabbath law. The National Guard
Is a branch of the government organized
to assist in the preservation of the peace.
The drill and camp on Sunday is not
an amusement. 1t Is business with the
members of the National Guard. The
target practice with the regiment as a
unit. Is no more than has been done reg
uJarly on Sunday by companies and bat
talious, and there has never been any
complaint. Target practice on Sunday
Is no worse than yacht races or shoot
ing matches, and there has never been
anything said of that.

when Can a Policeman Shoot.

Just when a policeman has a right to
use his revolver is n question that is at
present being considerably discussed
in New York. There have been several
instances lately in which the guardians
of the peace have evidently made mis-
takes, and although the American citi-
zen is patient and good natured to n
fault, he iS sometimes forced to declare
that he has certain rights which even
a policeman must respect. The latest
case which has aroused the metropolis
is that in which young man. running
away from 4 saloon where lively row
was in progress, was shot dead by
policeman. The young man had no
part in the ARRAY, but wanted to get
out of the locality of the fight as
quickly as possible. and SO started to
run up the street. A policeman shout
ed for him to stop; but he did not heed.
possibly did not even hear; and the
fatal shot was fred. Still such Is
New York's police system that the muir
derer continues to wear his badge.
Something Will be done about it? Per-
haps so.
Very likely the policeman thought he
was acting within his rights. If so. his
rights in such cases should be more
clearly defined and understood in New
York and elsewhere. A Philadelphia
court recently considered a case much
like the above. The policeman pleaded
guilty to involuntary manslaughter'
declaring that he meant to fire in the
air in order to brighten the man who
was running. The ruling of the judge
was clear and sensible. He said in
part: NO policeman has n right to
shoot a man merely because it is the
only way he can secure him. Under
ordinary circumstances an officer has
no right to shoot. The court appre-
ciates the danger which an officer is at
times required to face, and he is given
a firearm for his own protection; but
tflat uOcS not give MIN the IlSHt ~
fire upon criminal. or supposed crimi-
nal, in an effort to arrest him. He
must first be a prisoner and then he
must be attacking the officer or at
tempting to escape
That is plain enough for any police
man to understand. and it is also sound
sense. Firing in the air is not at all
safe business in the city. Ira his zeal to
capture the man he wants the officer
must not put too light value upon hui
man life. His weapon is for defense.
not for the purpose of filling with lead
an unarmed wrong dOer or supposed
wrong doer, who is running away from
him, and endangering the lives of in
nocent bystanders. The Portland
deputy who fired upon fleeing rum
seller, the other day, should think over
these things.
