HURRICANE
sONOMA DELAYED FROM AUCE-
LAND.
Made Good Run From Pago Rago.
Lost 32 Hours on Way From Various
Causes.

The S. s. Sonoma, Captain Van
Oterendorp, arrived from PagO PagO,
Auckland and Sydney last evening,
coming off the port at o'clock. She
uI not come into the harbor however,
..f5,tl after the Sierra had departed for
Pago Pago and the Colonies The So
noma was very late and will not be able
tC make connections with the overland
mail next Monday. She will therefore,
not attempt to get to San Francisco
until next Wednesday,
The Sonoma left Sydney on time,
April l. When she left that port, the
plague was still in progress, several
deaths having occurred during the
week. The plague was also reported
at Brisbane, a couple of deaths having
occurred in one day.
The SOnoma left Auckland April 8,
ten hours late, having been detained
on account of quarantine regulations.
This delay would not however, have
prevented her from reaching San Fran
cisco on time, had she not run into
hurricane on April 6, and had to be
hove to for - hours She was detain-
ed for ten hours off the harbor of Pago
PagO, on account Of the thick weather
as CAPTAIN Van OterendOrp would not

sci. The Sonoma left Pago PagO April

| days and 8 hours which is very good
/ time.
/ The vessel is quite light with freight
| but she has an exceptionally large list
! of passengers in all departments. A
/ large number of her passengers are
| bound to England to attend the corona
! ton. Only the FIRST cabin passengers
| were permitted ashore last night, when
| the vessel went to the Channel wharf.
! There was naturally a loud roar from
those in the second cabin and steerage.
A delegation waited on Purser Hodson
| but he assured them that it was be-
yond his power to grant permission to
&c ashore so the crowd retired with re-
sentiment in their hearts, against who
ever was. responsible for OBTAINING them
on the vessel
The Sonoma will sail at p. m. today
from the Channel wharf for San Fran
cisco Contrary to the report received
some days ago from San Francisco
there is ample room aboard the boat
for all classes of passengers from this
lport The vessel could have sailed
earlier in the day, but it was desired
to put 500 tons of coal, in addition to
quantity of sugar, aboard, so her sail
ing time was changed from noon, the
original hour, to 3 o'clock.

MURDERER IS CAUGHT
.KENTUCEY BILL" CAPTURED
TODAY.
Was Caught at the Mouth of Manoa
Valley Shortly After Noon-He Adj
mits His Guilt

Deputy High Sheriff Chillingworth
added one more to his list of successful
captures this afternoon when, in COM
pany with Dan Renear, he took into
custody Faris, known as Kentucky
Bill" who last night murdered John
Watson, a horse trainer, by stabbing
him in the heart with a case knife
All last night the police were out
hunting for Faris on different clues but
nothing definite was discovered until a
native boy telephoned to police head
quarters shortly after noon that he had
seen a haole eating at a Chinaman's
up Manoa valley. The description Civ
en- by the informant or rather infor-
mants there being two Of them who
made the discovery, was minute and
tailed with the one i'm the hands Of
the police.
Chillngworth called a hack and tak-
ing in Renear on his way to Punahou,
started out to arrest his man. There
was nothing dramatic about the arrest.
As the hack passed Dominis street,
shirt sleeves was seen on the skirts Of
the brush. The hack was stopped and
ChiIingworth and Renear surround
ed" the man. He made no resistance
but allowed himself to be led quietly
by the arm to the hack where he was
driven to the station and placed in a
separate cell.
On the way down Faris admitted the
crime and stated that the deceased was
always bounding and worrying him so
! that he had concluded that he was not
going to stand any more of 1t. Faris is
not of prepossesing appearance and has
all the marks of a tough although he
| locks rather vicious, or what the SER
geant at the desk describes as mean
! looking" He seemed in his cell to APP
preciate in a degree the gravity of his
situation but partoOk heartily of an
ample meal provided for him from the
police kitchens Of curry and rice, stew
and coffee. He comes from Ohio and
appears to have had no particular oc-
! cupation here nor inclination to obtain
any. His hand is bound up as if cut
by his knife and his shoes have the
uppers cut away his feet being covered
with cloth.

IT WOULD NOT WORK

George Haili is now serving ten days
for contempt of court. Judge wilcox
inflicted this severe sentence upon Ham
this morning in the district court. Ham
was arraigned on a charge of violating
section $40, in that he had failed to
have employment or have visible
means of support, for some weeks pre-
ViOus to the arrest.
The court and other officers thought
that Hail tried to sham insanity or at
least to appear "nutty" to the court in
the hope Of getting discharged. Haih
declared that he knew all about the
law against Vagrancy. He had set the
law in type when it was being printed
and he did not think much of it.
THAT fellow over there with the side
vhiskers, the one who looks like an old
Billy Goat" said Hail. indicating a
well known Hawaiian attorney "he
knows all about me. Oh, you are no
good Judge any how" exclaimed HALL
turning his attention to the court you
have got a little Whisker on your lower
lip"
Haili explained that he had not work
ed for the past eight months because he
had been sick Judge Wilcox observed
that the fellow was probably auected
by a constitutional complaint Lazy
Fever" Haili then proceeded to pay
his respects to the law. The general
manner of the defendant was Hippant
and insolent. so the court gave him ten
hours for contempt. Hail then began
to curse and swear at the Chinese Of
fcer who was escOrtng him from the
the court room, so Judge Wilcox call
| ed the defendant back, and extended
| the contempt sentence to ten days. The
other case was continued until April 26

CIRCUIT COURT Is NEARLY
BUSTED"
Jurymen win Have to Serve Anyhow
And Wait Till the Legislature Pays
Them,

What will the first circuit court do
when there is no money left in the ap-
preparation for it's expenses? This is
a question that has been discussed a
good deal about the judiciary building.
The end of the May term will probably
see the appropriation nearly exhausted
and it win certainly not last through
the August term.
Honolulu is not supposed to get along
for months without any circuit courts,
whatever happens. so that some way
will have to be found TO carry on the
courts Judge Humphreys this morn
ing said that perhaps mo one i'm the
Judiciary building cared TO draw any
money, and that possibly the courts
might go ahead ON creditor take
long vacation. Then he added that proc
badly a way would be found to do busi-
ness 1--WE may have to issue jury Cor-
tidcates, as has been done i'm other
countries said the judge. THE next
legislature can appropriate the money
Whether they have funds or not tine
courts win still have the power to make
orders. The salaries of clerks, etc..
are special appropriations, which will
last to the end of the fiscal period. The
jury fees will be one of the principal
items which there will be no funds 20
meet. But the judges power to sum-
mon jurors VIII remain good, and if
there is no cash on hand the jurors Will
have to serve and be satisfied with aN
order, which the next Legislature Will
be expected TO make good.
Somebody might lend money to the
courts" said Judge Robinson. 1T has
I been done before in Hawaii, when the
| judiciary department ran short. 1 re-
member that S. NJ. anon once loaned
$4,000. That was under the old gov
ernment. Now it depends upon a legis-
lature, and 1 don't know whether the
cash would be forthcoming or not. OF
course We shall have to have courts
/ any how. The legislature did not seem
/ to appreciate the expense of the Grand
| jury system. and so it failed to appro-
/ pirate enough
/ Judge Gear stated some time ago that
( the orders of the courts would have to
/ be obeyed funds or no funds, and that
| sessions would still be effective The
courts would have to draw warrants
and they would have to be respected
! Gear thought that the expenditures
were what the legislature might have
expected. i'm view Of the increased bust
ness and the grand juicy system.

GRANT ER0M MANILA

The transport Grant, Captain Crosby,
arrived unexpectedly just before noon
today from Manila. She made a quick
passage of is days. on board the ves-
sci are 17O5 civilian and soldier passen-
gers. Colonel J. w. Bubb of the
18th Infantry is going home with the
officers of his regiment, together with
their families. There are 654 enlisted
men of the 18th Regiment on the vessel
as are 873 Casuals 63 sick i'm the hos
pital, and 81 civilians who are in the
steerage, in addition to 81 in the cabin.
The vessel was detained five days in
quarantine at Manila, before she was
permitted to sail. There were some
cases of Asiatic cholera along the river
front, so the quarantine officials decid-
ed to hold the vessel in order to make
sure that nothing was wrong with the
health of her men. Captain Baker, the
quartermaster of the vessel, was also
told to return to Manila if a case of
the disease broke out among the peo-
pie in his care during the first five days
after leaving Manila. There was no
sickness aboard however.
The vessel will take about 900 tons of
coal here and get away for San Fran
cisco, probably Saturday afternoon
The men on the transport were given
shore leave. They all have money and
they were very anxious apparently to
spend 1t.
The transport Warren which left here
in March had not reached Manila when
the Grant left, on March 81.

A HOPE TOR MILLIONS
WILCOX WRITES ENCOURAGING
LY OF HIS SEARCH.
Thinks That Emil Ney Has a Good
Chance to Come Into the Fortune of
His Uncle.

Delegate Wilcox, by letters received
by the last mail. writes that he thinks
be is making good progress with Emil
Neys claim to the estates left by the
son of the great first marshal of France
Marshal Ney. He expects to bring the
matter before the Foreign Affairs COM
mittee of the House within a short
time and has written for a complete,
full, and detailed statement of Emil
Ney's claims of descent and relation
ship.
He says he is in receipt of a large
number of letters from persons in va
uous parts Of the states, particularly
the southern states, who make claims
of relationship and to the estate, ask
ing to be allowed to ally themselves
with Emil Ney in a general and tho
rough prosecution Of the claims for the
estate. Delegate WilcoX takes this as
an indication that Emil Ney's claims
are conceded and recognized by those
who are interested i'm the matter, and
that it only remains to present appro-
pirate and legal proof of his claims to
have them allowed. This proof it is
insisted is in existence, and has in fact
been much of 1t collected and cOllated,
though for want of a vigorous prosecu-
tion of the claim when it first arose by
the death of the second son of the great
Marshal, some of it has become scat
tered, and must be re-cOllected

NEW YORK PRELATE REPLIES TO
OPEN LETTER.
"A Clergyman May Properly Claim
Legal Protection against a Tyrannical
Bishop; And it is Well"

The New York Evening Post of April
2, publishes an interview with Bishop
Potter concerning Bishop Willis open
letter to Bishop Dudley Of Kentucky
i'm which the late Bishop of Honolu!u
declares that the convention at San
Francisco treated him discourteously,
and says of Bishop Potter this:
should this hope fail of realization
the cause of the failure win be the un-
holy, uncanOnical interference of the
Bishop of New York whose letter to
clergyman in this diocese has been pub
lished, urging him to take legal pro-
ceeGings against the Bishop, for no
other purpose than to prevent the ale
glance we have already promised to
your branch of the Church going into
effect And it, through the intriguing
and interference now brought to light
a factious opposition to the acts of the
synod continues to exist, to the dis
Curbance of peace and harmony the
responsibility for it must rest with the
Bishop Of New York"
Bishop Potter is quoted by the Even
ing Post thus
''The worthy Bishop ofHonolulu must
be out of his mind. That is the ldndest
Interpretation to be put upon his con-
duct. When Hawaii was first annexed,
it became at once apparent to every
one but him that the Episcopal Church
there must pass from BRUSH TO Alnell-
can control. 1t was, of course, expect
ed that he would resign. AS time pass
ed, and he did nothing, we learned to
our surprise that he proposed to stay
where he was.
THE case was a peculiarly perpleXing
one, as there is no organization through
which the matter could be adjusted
The Church of Hawaii is theoretically
under the jurisdiction of the Archbishop
of Canterbury, but he actually did not
have the power to remove the Bishop
The Bishops salary was paid by the
Society for the Promotion of the Gospel
in Foreign Lands. OF course, this So
Ciety saw the necessity of turning the
church over to us, and learning of the
strange attitude of the Bishop Informed
him that his salary would be stopped
in six months. And it was stopped over
a year ago.
$50 the matter stood until last year
when we induced him to attend, at oul
expense, the Episcopal General COnven
tion held at San Francisco in October
and talk the matter out. AS a Tesul
of frequent conferences he agreed to re
sign. We made up a purse for him, bu
I understand that he has ample private
means.
THE power of the Bishop is not des
potic but Constitutional, and it ha
always been held that a clergyman ma!
properly claim legal protection agains
a tyrannical Bishop. And it is well tina
this is So"

THE MAY GRAND Jury
JUDGE ROBINSON WOULD DO
WITHOUT.
Stabbing ARRAY at Kakaako Last
Night May Make 1t Necessary to call
One.

But for the tragedy at Kakaako last
night, there would probably not have
been any Grand Jury for the May term
of the First Circuit court A it is,
there appears to be a likelihood of a
murder case to be heard, in which
event Judge Robinson, who is to pre-
side next term, will call a Grand Jury.
1t will be necessary to indict the man
who welded a knife last night with
such fatal effect before he can be tried.
"A grand jury costs about a thousand
dollars" said Judge Robinson "and in
going through the term calendar 1 find
that there are few cases to be investi-
gated by a jury There are only II
cases on the calendar and none of them
are important cases.
Most of the defendants are out on
bail so that there will be little hard
ship to anyone if the cases are post
poned to the next succeeding term of
the court.
The Grand Jury system here imposes
a great burden of expense on the Ter
ritUry. A man who steals so cents is
liable to is months imprisonment un-
der our laws, and is guilty Of an in
famous crime. He cannot be tried
without an indictment. whereas under
the old system the district court heard
his case and fined him a small sum OF
sent him to jail for a short period That
was the end of the case as a rule, al
small cost
THE legislature should have a,lend-
ed the laws so that this system could
continue. on the mainland there is No
such expensive and cumbersome rou-
tine as we have here. In California
Durrant was tried. sentenced and hang
ed, without any Intervention Of a Crane
jury at all
"As long as we have to have Crane
juries the appropriation for the circui
court was too small. No consideration
| seems to have been given to the fac
that we should have to call such jurie'
at the various terms of court. The ap
preparation is running out and win no

Charles and Frank Castanha i'm the
United states Court-Uncle Sans
Laws Very Severe

The first prosecutions undertaken
here by the Internal Revenue depart
ment under The federal laws regarding
the distillau, n of liquors, are those OF
Manuel r.. Castanha and Frank Cas-
tanha, who We're indicted yesterday by
the grand jury for having an uuregis-
tered still i'm their possession and for
distlling liquor without filing the bond
required.
The appearance of Collector Cham
Derlain's bureau i'm these prosecutions
marks the beginning of much more se-
rious prosecutions than those of the
past for the federal laws are very
severe on offenders. Heretofore, the
territorial authorities have done the
prosecutinE but this time the cases
We're turned over to the federal officials
and il will go hard with the Castanhas
if they are found guilty.
The Castanhas father and son, are
charged under two different sections Of
the revised statutes Of the United
states. Under either section, both i'm
prisonment and fine must be imposed
as punishment, and there are other
sections, which must have been violated
If the two We're violated, under which
very long terms might be given The
federal laws are so much more severe
than the territorial laws, that it is ex-
pected that the change of placing such
cases i'm the federal court will have the
effect Of breaking up a good deal of il
Iieit distilling
Under section 325S. Charles and Frank
! Castanha are charged with being in
/ possession of a distilling apparatus that
was not registered with Collector
Chamberlain. For this the lowest
penalty is $500 with a fine of 500 and
one month i'm Jail. The highest sem
tence is the penalty of $500 and a fine Of
| $LOOO, with years in Jail. The other
