CHINESE WILL PETITION
GOVERNMENT FOR RELIEF
Would Favor Arrangement for Using Claims
Here to Reduce indemnity Due
United States.

! latter society to withdraw its permis-
must be secured.
The reason for this seeming refusal
on the part of the anti-consul men to
act in a matter which has for it's end
the relief of the Chinese people, is al
legged to be the belief that there must
be something which does not appear on
the surface. For instance, one of the
antis said yesterday that in his opinion
there is nothing in the matter but the
desire of the consul to have on record
al 1.-The Chinese in the city, as the
petition is declared to be not for sigma
tUre alone by the losers, so that II
there should come a war he would
know just who to prescribe in China
Others do not believe in the disinter-
estedness of the petition, but profess to
be of opinion that with such a petition,
based on the grounds set forth in the
poster the Chinese government might
bring pressure to bear on the United
States government to secure it's grant
Ing and then the money once in the
hands of the Chinese officials they
would hold 1t for an indefinite time and
the result would be that the Chinese
here would be worse off than in the
first place. The poster which was is
sued in great numbers is as follows:
Notice is hereby given, that, where
as the Board OF Health in taking ac-
ton to suppress the bubonic plague
started fires which led to the destruc-
ton OF great deal OF the property of
certain Chinese, which is now a matter
Of more than two years; and as there
v as formed a court Of claims. to which
all claims have been submitted, yet al
though our consul has communicated
with the government OF the Territory
and the Minister OF China at Washing
ton has made representations to the !
Secretary of State, we have not receiv- I
I'd any definite information as to when i
hese claims Will be paid.

This is a. matter which affects the
whole community and should have
been carried out in the Chinese Soci-
ETY.. We wrote to Mr.. Al for the loan
Of the nall. but he has refused. SO we
are therefore obliged to borrow some
ether place for the purpose. and we
notify you therefore of the place. From
this it will be seen that it is very diff
ficult to accomplish anything for the
good of the community"
But while these things are stirring
up the colony by reason of the fears
that there may be something behind
them, there is another bombshell which
is expected to explode today. This is
the suit of the Wong Kwai administra-
ton TO secure control of the United
Chinese Society. The papers in the suit
have been prepared for long time,
only awaiting the signature of the
president. Wong Kwai has been on
Maui. but returned in the Kinau last
week. 1t is understood that his name
has been attached to the legal docu-
ments and that the suit will be enter
ed in court very soon While the attor-
neys for the claimants to the Society
absolutely refuse to discuss the prosS
pective suit. it is said to be certain
that the action will take the form OF
quo warranto proceedings, calling upon
c. K. Al and others to show cause why
they should not turn over to Wong
Kwai and his associates all the prop |

Not wishing that the people should
wait for long time, certain persons
have met together and decided that 1t
would be wise to petition the Foreign
Office of the Chinese government, set
ting forth the facts of the case, and
showing the sufferings of the people.
Also it is proposed to petition the home
government, asking that it use its in
fUence with the United States Minister
at Peking, either to deduct the sum

is due from China to the United States,
or to use his influence TO see that there
