PROFESSOR KOEBELE MAY VISIT
THAT REPUBLIC.
Expert Griffith Lost Valuable Glasses
on Molokai-Mexico Tries japanese
Labor.

Territorial Entomologist Koebele will
in all probability shortly take a lengthy
trip In the interests of Hawaiian entO-
mOlOgy and the relation OF that science
to vegetable growths. The proposed
trip viii be made to Mexico within a
few weeks where the Professor viii
study conditions very similar to those
I'm these islands
The Mexican ranchers are said to be
having a hard time of DC to get labor
on their plantations While the native
peon is sheap and can live on about
three cents a day I'm that land where the
banana, which grows wild anG beans
which almost grow wild, are the prin-
ctpal foods, he is not much account as
a workman, despite the contracts which
render him a virtual slave to the land
owners. A number of Japanese have
recently been imported to Mexico and
the result is to be carefully watched by
the government and the planters.
While primarily going as an entOnO-
logist, Professor Koebele who is well
versed through his botanical studies in
much that relates to practical agricul-
Jure and arbOriculture, will keep his
eyes and ears and note book open i'm the
interests of the government here and
expects to bring back a report that will
prove very valuable to those studying
the interests of Hawaii and its vege-
table productions.
Search is still being made on the ISL
and of Molokai for a valuable pair Of
field glasses lost there during the trip
.Of e. M. Griffith who has lately com
pleted preparatory examination of the
group for the forestry bureau at Wash
ington. The field glasses were made in
almost a pocket edition but possessed
unusually strong lenses arranged es-
pecially for such wok as Mr.. Grimths
undertakes.
Some idea Of their power may be ina
glned by the statement that when two
thousand yards away the glasses could
be focused on a tree and the variety
determined bv the telescope power of
the glasses on a single leaf Such an
attribute made them practically in
valuable to the forester who much re-
GREETED having to leave them behind
him when he left
The loss was accomplished during a
halt while climbing the mountains on
Molokat. Mr. Griffith threw off all his
trappings for a short rest and did not
discover until nine or ten miles away
that he had neglected to throw the
strap Of the glasses over his head again.
In mountainous country like the Ha-
Waiian group the power of the glasses
saved many a long trip across preclpi-
tous gulches to determine the species
OF any particular tree or Clump Of trees.

OWNERSHIP OF VALUABLE
PUNCHBOWL PROPERTY.
Kalakaua's Heirs Secure an Injunction
TO Restrain Proceedings Against
Them.

The Eapiolani Estate this morning
secured an injunction restraining Mary
II. AtCherly from prosecuting her suit
I'm ejeCtmont involving 232 acres of
land on PunchbOwl street. The Estate
filed a lengthy bill in equity setting
forth It's title through the late King
kalallaua and the high Chiefess Eauiu
who 1T is alleged adopted him and left
him all her estate The issues raised
involve some old-time transactions Oi
the chiefs and mOuarChs, going back
as far as 1874.
1t is set forth that I'm 1874 David Ka-
ldkaua was living with the Chiefess
kaniu or HaaheO. as her adopted child
and that she was the owner of the
property involved which consists of
2.a2 acres at the corner of Queen and
ILnChbOWl streets. She died in 1874.
leaving no relatives but her husband
huimaka and David Kalakaua and de-
clared the latter her heir 1t rs set forth
that on the day of her death. i'm the
presence of a number of High Chiefs
and Chiefesses of Hawaii, she stated
her intention to make Kalakaua. then
y years Old, her sole heir. and that he
was recognized as such by Kameha-
meha third and by the chiefs
The trouble begun when Kinimaka
as trustee for Kalakaua got the lands,
and il is claimed, violated his trust by
declaring the title his own This was
I'm 1856 and Kalakaua promptly began
suit. I'm 1858, it is stated, Chief Justice
Allen ordered r.. Armstrong, admins
traitor Of the estate of Kinimaka, then
deceased, to turn the title to the prop
erty over to Kalakaua but it was
never done. though Kalakaua and his
heirs remained i'm undisputed possess
sion up to January, 1900.
IL was this failure of Armstrong; to
carry out the courts order, it is stat
ed that clouds the title The defend
ant Mary II. Atcherly, for Kaniu,
David LeleO and Moses Kapaakea,
children of the deceased Kaniu. began
proceedings in ejectment
Under the injunction now issued
Mrs. Atcherly is restrained from fur
thar prosecution of this action and a
Permanent Injunction is asked for.

McCully street extension of the Rapid
Transit lines. The Japanese sub-con-
4acters who are delivering the rock

breaking all records in delivering their
wagon loads Of rock ballast brought
from PalolO.
On Friday one hundred loads were
brought down and dumped and on Sat
urday lI5 loads were delivered between
z and II o'clock, an average of thirty
five loads an hour. Towards noon
few of the wagons became blocked Ow-
ing to the narrOwness Of the firm track
and the consequent difficulty of turn
ing round after dumping. The road
gets more swampy as the work pro-
crosses.
A low wire fence is being carried
along each side of the road and red
flags have been posted along the per-
manent way, outside Of which it is
dangerous to venture the soil being
very treacherOus. There have been
several little accidents which have been
