A POSSIBLE
INCENDlARY FIRE
Blaze at Stockyards Discovered
in Time to Prevent
Damage.

A fire which had every indication of IN
cendiary origin caused considerable alarm
at the new Honolulu Stock-Yards stables
early Saturday morning. At the barn
the story of an incendiary Is secuted.
but the conditions surrounding the fire
leave little else for conclusion. Shortly
after midnight the watchman at the
stables discovered a blaze between the
two floors of the partially completed
frame building. With the aid of several
workmen he put out the fire by means of
the patent extinguisher kept on hand
for just such an emergency. He found
the source of the fire in an oiI-covered
pair of painters overalls. which were
only half burnt Painters had been
quite possible that some one Of them had
carsessly thrown the oyeralls between
the two floors, where they ignited from
spontaneous combustion. On the other
hand it seems more likely that the oily
overalls were ignited by some one pur-
posely. Escape was comparatively easy
as the building is open from the rear.

covery of the fire at its inception a
serious confiagration may have been the
result, as the buildings are dry as tinder.
and all of frame. The recent strike at
the stables, in which some half a dozen
Chinese lost their jobs, may furnish some
, clue to possible motive for an attempt
,, ed crime, if attempt 1t was. No damage
was done except to small portion of
the two floors.

most noteworthy feature of the afternoon
services was the christening of fourteen

The organ was presided over by Miss

hymns in their native tongue, the hymns
having been translated from English to
Hawaiian.
Three brief addresses were delivered
also in the Hawaiian language. E. K.

of its dedication at Kawaiahao church,

Philip Naone, who is young man, just
entering upon the practice of law, asked
the members of the church to accept his
apologies for any reference he had made
to them in a recent address, and which
was not to the liking of some of the
Hawasians. He is a teacher in the sun

understood him, they should have no

Neither of the combines affected has
seemingly made any attempt to break

morning that he called upon the officers
of the independent sheet plants in ref
erence to the recent cut of prices made
by the sheet combine and they agreed
with him that the reduction was made
to keep the independent concerns out
of the market. "If they persist in
this" said he, II will call conference

President Shaffer had a telephone
