Coon Returns to Serve a
Heavy Sentence.

", ]. Coon, well known in Honolulu,
arrived on the Sonoma yesterday from
San Francisco, where he has resided
during the last three years.
He had not been in town long before
he ran up against an old acquaintance,
Chester Doyle, who informed another
acquaintance, High Sheriff Brown, that
Mr.. Coon was in town SO anxious
was the sheriff to have a private talk
with his old friend that he placed him
under arrest, thinking, perhaps, that
Mr.. Coon might depart from these hos
pitable shores without favoring him
with. q call.
w. j. Coon was formerly connected
| with the Peoples Express Company.
On July 5, 1901, he was arrested on a
| charge of having opium in possession.
| The customs officials unearthed over
| 800 tins. Five packages on Coon's dray
contained 1870 tins. The balance was
| found on the premises on Emma street.
The opium deal was cleverly engi-
| neered, and it's promoters hoped to
carry through their scheme success
| fully during the excitement attendant
on the arrival of the transports. Port
Surveyor Stratemeyer got the tip,
however, that "somethin' was dom, >
and sent Inspectors Rhodes and Short
| to watch Coon's residence. Scarcely
| had they secured shelter when Coon
came up with a dray on which We're
| several packages A few more care
fully tied bundles were brought from
| the house and put aboard the dray.
The customs officials seized the load
on the dray. At the custom house the
| opium was found. A search warrant
| was secured, and beneath the floor of
a photographers darkroom in Coon S
house, 760 more tins We're discovered
| Coon,s rarrest followed.
On July 9th the case came up in the
| District Court, and Coon was sentenced
to three months Imprisonment and to
pay fine of $3.50. An appeal was
noted at once, and Coon was released
on 1000 bail, his bondsmen being Geo
| Hawkins and w. Larson.
Shortly afterward Coon disappeared
| and has not been seen in Honolulu
1 until yesterday, when he was arrested
| by virtue of the former mittimus.
| Coon came to Honolulu in 1893, ano
was first employed as a compositor or
| the Star. He was well liked, ano
deTmany friends. The opium Law
| is NOW repealed, but that won't stand
in the way of Coon having to serve hi;
sentence.
