KAuMAKAPILI COMES DOWN.
Not q Brick Remains Standing in the
Old Landmark.

Only a mass OF wreckage marks the
spot where for more than u halr-century
stood K-amaukapiH church. The second
tower was thrown down yesterday and
the work Of cleaning and carting away
the bricks goes on rapidly. The site must
be cleared before the first of the year,
and soon a street will run over the spot
where the old edifce stood for so many
years. 1t IS possible that. when the site
Is dug into. some stones from the ancient
heather heiau Will be found.
The massive towers were thrown down
by mining the walls mauka so that
the weight was thrown upon slender pill
lar. and the ruined structure was thus
thrown down IN the direction desired. As
fast as the walls have been dropped so
far the bricks have been cleaned and
carted away by the contractor, who pur-
chased the ruin.
1t Is the intention TO grade and extend
Smith street through the lot which was
occupied by the structure. until 1t
reaches the line of Kukui street. The
Bishop Estate exchanged for the site Of
the old church q square In Palama, upon
which a new Kamaukapill church soon
will be erected.

Young Woman Burned Saturday
 Makes the Third Victim
 New York, June 17.--The police are searching diligently to unravel the mystery surrounding the identity of an acid thrower at the St Nicholas apart ments in Harlem, but so far without success.
 Miss Charlotte Collie, a young wo- man, is the especial object of the spite, and she was severely burned Saturday evening while watering flowers from a window of her flat. The attempt of Saturday was the third of the kind. On the first two occasions the liquid was thrown on her while she was in the elevator from point up stairs, and on both occasions Edward Reinhardt, the elevator boy, who has fallen under the ban of the acid throwers, was also burned, but not so badly as Miss Colie.
 Miss Charlotte Collie is the 1S-year- old daughter of Mir and Mrs w. H. Collie, who have been residing on the sixth floor-ef the St Nicholas since Sep teInbery last.
 On June 8, when Miss Collie met with her second mishap, the vial that contained the acid was found later in two pieces, together with two portions of a letter that when put together proved to have been directed to Miss Colie. and Reinhardt. It shows that acid was bought to blind both the young woman and the elevator boy. It is signed ssMe and Him."

.EARL RUSSELL 4 B|CAh|ST
Arrested To-Day and Taken to
 Bow Street Court.

Marriage Was Performed Tn This
 Country and He Had Just Returned
 to Londopp1The. Earl Was Remanded
 In $2,0oO Bail.
 London, June 17.-Earl Russell was arrested to-day on charge of having contracted a bigamous marriage in the United States. The earl was met at the railway station upon his arrival from the country this morning by de- tectives with warrant and was taken to the Bow Street police court, where he was formally charged. The earl ap- peared to be quite unconcerned.
 Earl Russell was remanded in f2,O00 bail.
 About year ago it was announced that Earl Russell had obtained di- vorce in Nevada and had there mar- ried Mrs Mollie Somerville, daughter of the late George Cooke of ComDer- nauld, Scotland. Mrs Somerville had also obtained 9 divorce in Nevada from her husband, George J. Somer- vile, a Scotchman. Later, the earl and his new countess went to Eng land and the first countess threatened to have the earl arrested for bigamy.

BRAVE BUT UNLUCKY.
A Dismissed Army Officer Arrested for
 Passing Sad Checks.

New York, June 17.-Ex-Lieutenant Edward Hugh Martin, dismissed from the United States army in August 1900, for irregularities in managing the post exchange at Fort Hamilton has been arrested for passing a worthless check for $74.S6 on the Gorham Manufactur- ing company.
 A warrant for his arrest was issued on May 25, but when it was sought to serve it the lieutenant disappeared, it is alleged, over a roof. This was the last seen of him until yesterday. When arrested Martin said he had probably overdrawn his account in the Mer- chants National bank in Philadelphia, on which the check was drawn.
 Martin is twenty y-seyen. He is a grad uate of West Point, and in the Spanish American war distinguished himself on several occasions. After tne war he was stationed at Fort Hamilton, and it was while in charge of the fort can teen that he was courtmartialed. While the courtmartial was in progress, he saved two lives in the bay, but neither this nor his bravery in Cuba ayailed to save him from dismissal.

HE SAW BLoNDIN.
The Suspected Murderer Was ir
 Springfield Last Friday.

Springfield, Mass, June 17.-Patrick J. Haley, employed in the Springfield custom house, is almost positive that he saw Joseph Wilfred Blondin, the sus- pected wife murderer, in this city, Fri day morning, June H, at 9:30 o'clock. Passing down Worthington street, from Main to Water street, MT Haley met two men headed toward Main street, and gave them casual glance. One of the pair, the shorter of the two, was visibly affected by Haley's scrutiny, so much so, in fact, that it aroused the latter's curiosity, and the incident was impressed upon his mind. The next morning MT Haley read the description of Blondin in a newspaper and was struck by the resemblance to the frightened, nervous stranger he had met the day before in Worthlngton street. This morning reEfrter show ed Mir Haley photograph of Blondin and with hardly a moments hesitation he exclaimed:
 ssThat's the man. I'm almost positive it was he I saw Friday morning. The fellow acted so nervous and all broke up when he caught me looking at him, that I wondered what could be the matter with him and observed him very closely. He was with man a little taller than he. I did not pay particular attention to his clothing, but I remember that he wore black derby hat and a cutaway coat. but whether it was cutaway frock or sack coat can't say. But that face in the photo graph is exactly like hiS I'm almost sure enough to swear to ii"

KENNEDY JURY DISAGREE.
It Is Understood That Eight Were for
 Acquittal and Four for Conviction.

Acquittal and Four for Conviction.
 New York, June 17.-After the Ken nedy jury had been locked up twenty two hours, much of which time was occupied in deliberation and ballOting, it's members decided that they never could agree on verdict. They report ed the fact to Judge Newburger yes terday morning, who discharged them from further duty, and the man ac- cused of the murder of Dolly" Key holds was taken across the Bridge of Signs to his cell in the Tombs, there to await the decision of District Attor- ney Philbin as to whether he shall have another trial or go free. The jury stood four for conviction and eight for acquittal.
 1t was not until shortly before 10 o'clock that the jurors were convinced that they never could reconcile their differences of opinion and reach a yer- dict. This fact was reported to Judge Newburger, and at 1925 o'clock the weary jurors filed into court and their foreman made his report.
 The standing of the jury on the last ballot was as follows:
 For acquittal-W William Proudman, IT. Benjamin J.. Shafer, John M. Thompson, Theodore Weed, Louis R. Searles, Henry T. Smith, William McA. Wiswall and Frederick w MorrisES.
 For conyiction-Joseph E, Aue, fore man; John H. Mcdonald, Blakeslee Barnes and William D. Pruden-4.
 An attempt was made by some of the jurors to pledge their colleagues to secrecy, but one of the strongest fight CTS for an acquittal said that lie would Eot be lmuzzled. He said thea public paid for thei trial andbwas entitled Tto full Information. There was no1 law, to seal jurors lips.

BoERs BOB UP sERENELY.

English Column Surprised and Two
 Officers and Sixteen Men Killed.
 London, June 17.-Lord Kitchener has cabled from Pretoria, under yes terdays date, as follows:
 "Near Wellmansrust, 20 miles south of Middelburg, 250 Victorian Mounted Rifles from General Beaston's column were surprised by superior force of Boers at 7:5O p. m., June 12.
 'SThe enemy crept up to within short range and poured deadly fire into the camp, killing two officers and 16 men, and Wounding four officers and 3S men, of whom 28 were slightly wound ed.
 "Only two officers and 50 men es- capped to General Beaston's camp. The remainder were taken prisoners and, later, released. Two pompoms were captured by the enemy. Full details
 Lord Kitchener telegraphs the war office from Pretoria under yesterdays date as follows:
 During the march from Vrede Or ange River Colony, Elliot's column en- gagged the enemy under De Wet on June 6, and after severe fighting cap- tured a convoy of seventy-one loaded wagons, forty-fve prisoners, fifty eight rifles, 10000 rounds of ammuni- ton and 4,000 cattle The Boers left seventeen killed and three wounded on the field. Our casualties were three officers and seventeen men killed and one officer and tWenty-four men wounded.''
 The serios-s reverse which Lord Kitchener reports is the first accident of the kind that has happened to the Australian contingent, and it is sup. posed to be due to neglect of proper picketing. Although it is offset by the defeat inflicted upon De Wet, the. loss of the guns is regarded as a seri- ous matter, which will encourage the Boers to continue the struggle.

DISCUSSING OCEAN RACE.

Glasgow, June 17.-Captain Hamil- ton, who navigated the Shamrock I. across the Atlantic, in an interview with a representative of the Associated Press, said he considered it impracti- cable to carry out the suggested ocean race with the cup yachts carrying their racing gear. While the hulls were strong enough, and the over cafvasing difficulty might be met with reef1ng, he believed that in the event of heavy weather or cross seas the yachts would be in imminent danger of Jumping their big masts out. The great booms carried by the cutters were also liable to drag in the seas, constituting a seri- ous danger. He sees no reason, how ever, why races should not be held if yawl rig were adopted with shorter and stouter masts.

EMPLOYERS LIABILITY BILL.
Labor Leaders Will Investigate Theft
 From Official Files.

Denver, Col, June 17.-Conference of labor leaders are being held in this city to investigate the reported theft from the official files of what is known as the Employers Liability Bill" passed by the last legislature in the interest of the wage earners. Lieut. Governor Coates said on the subject:
 If it is true that the record of the passage of the employers liability law has been stolen from the. official jour nal of the senate, and it cannot be re- covered, the law is invalid. There are decisions in our courts that cover prac- ticalay similar cases.
 .sf don't yet know officially that the portion of the bill is stolen, but shall investigate. If the bill or portion of it has been stolen, it has been done deliberately and with the sole int>nt of invalidating the law. When the bill was pending it was bitterly fought. Every effort was made to de- feat it. The duplicate copies will do us no good. The court will accept only the original.
 'l do not suspect any person or Der sons in this work. I do not know whether the part of the record alleged to be missing disappeared after it was given to the secretary of state or be- fore. I am, however, inclined to be- Ge7e that the portion was taken before it reached the secretary of state.
 sThis theft comes as stunning blow to the working people of Colo rado. It was the one law that the working people wanted passed and the one for which the friends of labor made their hardest fight.
 -Four years ago portion of the record of tho n0Scq 0f Tho Co,.;ya Kill was stolen and that bill was invan- dated''
 At conference held in the offices of the state federation of labor, Presi- dent Carman declared that if the bill is declared to be void by reason of the theft. that organized lahor in the state would expend hundreds of dol lars in finding and convicting the guilty persons.

ANOTHER MURDER TRIAL.
The Man Who Shot the Rev.
 John Keller.

Barker, the Man Who Did the Shoot
 ing, Admits It, But Says He Was
 Justified-The Rev MT Keller Re-
 fused to Sign the Complaint Against
 Barker, Saying He Did Not See the
 Man Who Shot Him.
 New York, June 17.-Themas G. Barker waSPlaced on trial in the Hud son county court, Jersey City, to-day, before Judge Blair, charged with as sault with intent to kill. On Febru- ary last Barker shot the Rev John Keller of Arlington, N. J., vicar of Trinity chapel in that place. One of the bullets fired by Barker went through Keller'slfacial bone from the right side, destroying the sight of the right eye. A second bullet shattered the fingers of Mir Keller's right hand.
 Barker made a statement to the po- lice in which he said he was justified in shooting the minister. According to his story, Mrs Barker told him shortly before the shooting that about eighteen months previous MT Keller called on her while she was alone in the house and made an improper proposal. When she repulsed him, according to the story told by Barker, the minister at tackled her violently and she tainted. Barker further said his wife had been afraid to tell him the story of the as sault because she knew that if she did he would kill the minister. For some days before the alleged confession Mrs Barker had been in sick and nervous condition.
 MT Keller has always said that he did not see his assailant when he was shot and immediately after the shoot ing he refused to sign complaint against Barker on that ground. When informed of the alleged confession of Barker's wife he denounced the whole story as utterly false. He declared that his whole life was refutation of the charge.
