Dismisses Case.

Magistrate johnson this morning
heard case involving the ownership
of pair of doubletrees and swingle-
trees. George Petit claimed that
they were his and that John McDon-
aid had stolen them some two weeks
ago. He went so far as to identity
the double and swingletrees, taken
from McDonald's wagon, by worm
holes and knots in the wood. McDon-
aid in his defense, introduced evil
dence to show that he had made the
doubletrees and purchased the swim
gletrees with n wagon. The magis-
trate finally dismissed the case.

TO KNIFE THE TICKET
Purpose of a fractional Meeting
Held in Moline on Democratic
Legislative Candidates.
TO SUPPORT sooIALIsTIo NOMINEE
Mr.. Moore Himself Undecided, But
Declares Against
Cooke.

\ meeting was held at Industrial
hall in Moline last evening, partici-
pated in by the supporters of the
particular candidacy of w. Il. Moore
for the minority representative nom
ination, at which it was decided to
support p j. Carlson, socialis-
tic candidate for the legisla-
ture in preference to G. \. Cooke,
the democratic nominee. Benton Da-
Wis was chairman of the meeting and
X. w. Rank secretary.
Position of Mr. Moore
When interviewed by The Argus to-
day Mr.. Moore stated that he was not
in attendance at the meeting. and
was still undecided as to his attitude
with reference to the course adopted.
He declared, however, that he would
not support Cooke for the legislature.
Mr.. Moore advanced the argument.
nevertheless, that Il move such as had
been inaugurated would bring to the
polls vote in support of the demo-
cratic county ticket that would 9th
erwise be Indifferent owing to Mr..
Cookies candidacy.
The Argus greatly regrets the
Moline faction and is likewise sorry
to learn of Mr.. Moore's purpose to
knife his rival for the democratic
Legislative nomination. There can be
no excuse for such an attitude. The
assertion that the object is to gain
support for the democratic county
ticket will hardly stand in justifica-
ton of the move. While all good
democrats are anxious that all should
be done possible for the county tick
ct, no loyal representative of the
party will desire to see anything done
that involves the sacrifice of any 9th
err legally established candidate on
that ticket. Furthermore. it is quite
as important to democrats to send
a straight party representative to the
legislature as any other duty devolv-
ing upon them election day Mr.
Cooke has been declared by law the
democratic candidate for minority
representative. Beyond that his de
mocracy personally is above question.
Move Does Not Commend ITSELF.
The move on the part of the Moline
faction does not commend itself
to loyal democrats, and it is sincerely
to be hoped that -lr. Moore will think
twice before he either joins i'm or
takes any other step that would be
otherwise than strictly in accord not
only with his party in all things, but
with what has been established by
the law for his party in the particular
case in which he has been so much
interested.

| Their story appeared in the newspa-
, pers, and was about the same as that
appearing in the Advertiser some time
ago. The ship was becalmed near this
small island, and in spite of all they
/ could do, she drifted into this large
cave, breaking off her upper masts as
she drifted farther in. The lower
masts being too strong to be broken,
were forced through the bottom Of the
ship. The people escaped with their
| lives only, and succeeded in making a
! FIRE on the island with their last match
which they never allowed to die out.
They lived on penguins, wild goats and
| sheep and fish The goats and sheep
had been placed there some years be-
fore by parties from the south island
of New Zealand. They found a scanty
edible vegetation on the island, which
served in place OF vegetables, and the
party experienced no hartlships 10
speak Of Three men died from natur-
al causes.
1t is extremely improbable that there
was any treasure on board, more than
the small sum usually carried by ships
Of those days for very urgent and pres
sing occasions, as the payment for re-
pairs of small damages, or for the pur-
chase of provisions on what might be
very long voyage, a Geographic
draft on the managing owner being as
yet one of the impossibilties. There
are various other reasons why this
ship could not have had much treasure
on board, amongst which may be men
toned that this was an American ship,
nd al, hai In ba
ship was liable to capture by priva-
teers. There was also difficulty in pro-
curing exchange in distant foreign
ports on the United States, owing to
the extreme fluctuations in the price of
gold. For some one or the other OF
these reasons. the ships In the New
York, and Australian trade. would gen.
orally draw about half of their freight
money In advance, so as not to have
more money in hand than enough for
clearing the ship out of the first port
after leaving home, and this ship was
no exception to the rule or custom Of
those days. Therefore after paying all
her port expenses at Melbourne, the
uneXpended balance of half her freight
money would be no more than the very
small sum usually carried by ships OF
those days for emergencies. And, fur
thermore, in the case OF this particular
ship, 1t is not likely that the captain
and his crew of fine able men would
have left any treasure laying round
without an effort to save It. And
again, II there had been tons OF treas
IRE lost with this ship. the gang on the
Herman are not the kind likely to be
capable OF getting any OF It, Very
truly yours,

PIT ERAPlDLY FILLING UP WITH
LAVA WHILE GEYSERS OF FIRE DOT THE GREAT LAKE

Tourists who returned from the vol.
cano on the Claudine Saturday brought
enthusiastic reports OF the activity in
the pit OF Halemaunau. a report OF the
fresh outbreak In which occurred In our
telegraphic dispatches early last week.
The display was said to be magnlf-
cent and the large party OF visitors who
witnessed II were delighted with their
experience. Mr.. Richard Trent has had
confirmation by mail of the wireless
messages received during the week,
and has on file in the office OF Henry
Waterhouse Co. a detailed daily re-
port Of the action Of the volcano. as
follows:
Friday, November Gone splitting
fire only; no flow.
Saturday and Sunday-No change.
Monday. November 10-This morn
ing at o'clock fountain commenced to
play.
Tuesday, November 11-Today the
action is stronger than It has been
during the present outbreak; cone
blown to pieces, and geyser spouting
fire twenty feet high and about as
wide, forming lake from bank TO
bank of liquid lava, which is about 600
feet across; this action continued all
day and night.
"Wednesday and Thursday-The ac
ton continues as strong as ever, build
ing up the lava lake very rapidly"
The lowest floor of the pit of Hale
maumau has raised another 100 feet
since the measurement was reported
on October 20, and from present indi-
cations will continue to rise.
Mr.. w. H. Lambert, superintendent
of the Hilo Railroad Company, reports
that up to the time of writing, before
the Claudine sailed on Friday, the vol
cano had been in an unusual state of
