CHINESE
AT PEACE
wARRING FACTIONS IN UNITED
AND DIG UP THE GOLD.

The controversy of rival factions of
the Chinese United Society has been
settled, and the suits now in the courts
over the matter will be WITHDRAWN.
The settlement comes just in time to
do away with difficulties resulting from
the loss of the stenographer's notes in
the case of the Territory VS.. A. c. X.
All ct al, as another trial had been ask
ed for on the ground that the record
could not be written up for appeal
BY the terms of the settlement G. K.
All is chairman, Hon Fon treasurer, and
E. Wan Sing secretary of board of
nine directors to have the management
of the fund of $4,000 which was in dis
pute. The complete board consists of
c. K. All, Lau Tang, Ho Fon, Wong
Leong, M. c. Amana, Wong Hwai,
Yum Quon, L. Akau and e. Wan Sing
The money is to be applied first to
the building of a brick building on the
King street property of the United
Society The building is to be turned
over to- the society and what money is
left is to be also placed in control of
the society. Half of the income will go
to the Chinese hospital and half will
be reserved for future relief work by
the United Society.
The board of managers agreed upon
Bow Wong faction and their OPP
ponents, with Bow Wongs in major
ity. A method will be chosen for hold
ing future elections in the society ac-
cording to law and it is expected that
an will be harmony hereafter.
The societys case heard in court was
an application for a writ of quo war
ranto, to ascertain the validity of the
proceedings by which the Bow Wong
set of officers, who held possession of
the society headquarters were elected.
The trial before Judge Gear occupied
three or four days and was warmly
contested. The decision was in favor
of the Bow WOngs, and an appeal was
noted. Then it was found that the
stenographer's notes had been lost, and
the evidence could not be copied for the
record on appeal. A motion for a new
trial was made on the ground of such
loss, but Gear held that as the case
had gone to the higher court, he had
lost jurisdiction, and the matter of a
new trial was to have been presented
in the Supreme Court.

CABLE COMPANY
PAYS BIG DUTY
THREE MILES OF CABLE AND
THE INSTRUMENTS IMPORTED
TAXED NEARLY $4,000.

The Commercial Pacific Gable Com
pany has paid into the custom house
here nearly $4,000 in cash, being the
amount of duty on three miles of ca
BILE from the Honolulu shore seawards,
and on the instruments brought in here
fro mthe steamer Silvertown. Both the
cable and the instruments came here
from England, and were subject to a
duty of 35 per cent.
The three miles of cable represents
the amount Of the long line which is
considered to have been imported into
American territory here. The jurisdic-
ton of the custom house extends three
miles out Beyond that is the open sea,
in which the rest of the 2,1OO miles of
cable except the piece on which duty
was paid at the San Francisco end,
lies duty free.
The company imported a number of
valuable instruments, for the cable
operators, and these increased the total
duty to between $500 and $4,000.

A NOBLEMAN
NATURALIST
EARL OF CRAWFORD TO COME TO
HAWAII ON COLLECTING TRIP
SON EDUCATED At BERKELEY.

The Eard of Crawford, proprietor of
the largest yacht of the Royal Yacht
squadron is to visit Hawaii and other
Pacific Islands, gathering fauna and
flora for his collection. The earl is an
ardent collector and has one of the
most extensive private museums pos
sesed by any amateur student of natu-
raj history.
His steam yacht, a magnificently ap-
pointed vessel, is named the Valhalla
and the Pacific ocean trip will prob
ably lengthen to an expedition round
the world before 1t is ended. With the
Earl comes j. Nicoll, a member of
the British Ornthological Union, who
will assist in collecting specimens. The
birds of Hawaii will be included in the
list of those wanted by the gatherers.
The Valhalla will go first to the Falk-
land Islands and then, passing through
the Straits of Magellan, visit the vari-
Gus South Sea groups passing upwards
to California by way of Hawaii.
The Earl of Crawford is distinguish
ed in the eyes of Americans for so far
breaking away from English customs
as to have a son educated at an Am
erican institution. The Honorable
Mr.. Lindsey, now a student at Berke-
| ley College, is a son of the nobleman
and California Will doubtless be includ-
ed in the itinerary of the Valhalla.

SLLVERHOVN IS
FAR OUT AT
SEA
Buoyed the Shore Section Of
the Cable Five Miles off
Diamond Head-Stated to
sea,

The shore section of the Pacific cable
has been completed. This morning
the engineers aboard the cable ship
Silvertown got the vessel under way
from off the cable station at San Souci
and began to lay a portion of the rock
or intermediate cable.
The shore cable extends a distance of
about one and an eighth miles. Onto
this was spliced the intermediate cable.
At 9:45 o'clock this morning the cable
ship got under way from the $50
fathoms point from off shore and
steamed to a point about miles. south
by a little west from Diamond head.
There the intermediate cable was cut
and buoyed This work was completed
at Has o'clock. The vessel got under
way and at 1850 p. m. passed KOko
Head.
No cable was then being laid as it is
the intention to go out to the point
where the deep sea cable was buoyed
last Friday morning, which was 80
miles from Honolulu. 1t is not thought
that the cable ship will be able to
make any splice of the deep sea and
second section today. The wind is re-
ported by Diamond Head Charlie to be
very fresh. There is a stiff northeast
trade blowing and a good sized swell is
running from the same direction. The
engineers did not anticipate doing the
work until the weather subsidies.
According to present indications there
is little chance that the weather will be
such as to permit the connection to be
made today. Professor Lyons the wea-
ther observer reports that the high ba-
rometer which now prevails indicates a
continuance of the present stiff wind. 1t
is understood that the cable ship will
return to Honolulu in case it should be
found that the weather is too bad to
permit the splice of the deep sea and
other sections to be made. Other re-
ports are however, that she will remain
hove to near the deep sea cable until
the weather will have subsided and the
splice can be made.
The final splice will be made however
at the point five miles off Sans Souci
where the end of the intermediate and
land cables division was buoyed this
morning. The cable ship is to splice
the deep sea end and then lay the re-
naming 80 miles to the five mile point
which was buoyed today. 1t is net
known when the final splice which
means the completion of the cable, will
be effected.

OREGON NEARLY
LOST IN A TYPiOON
ALL HANDS PIPED TO SAVE THE
sHIP-TWENTY DAYS GOING TO
YOKOHAMA.

The battleship Oregon was nearly
lost on her recent voyage from Homo
lulu to Yokohama. She was twenty
days making the run from this port to
Japan a trip that would ordinarily have
taken her not over two weeks at the
very outside.
News of the experience of the vessel
was received by r. w. White of the
local naval station from an enlisted
man on the battleship. The letter ar
rived last Saturday by the America
Maru The letter reads as follows un-

The SIBERIA WILL
CONTAIN ROOMS
FOR OPIUM SMOKING

Something new in the trans
pacific passenger service is pro-
missed with the appearance Of
the new big steamship Siberia.
She has accommodations for 220
first-class and 1144 Chinese
steerage passengers, and the
something new relates to the
latter, being four rooms fitted
up for opium smoking. The
chief officer of the ship thus de-
fends the innovation: You can't
keep the swine from smoking,
and if you let 'em smoke in their
berths they will stink up the
ship till there's no living in it.
If you forbid smoking in their
sleeping quarters and set a
quartermaster to watch to see
that the order is obeycd, Chey
will sneak down where cargo is
slowed or some other place,
where they are likely to set the
ship afire.

ASSAILANT OF
MOANALUA GETS
FOUR MONTHS JAIL

]. X. Mokumaia was given
four months in Jail by Judge
Wilcox for assault and battery
on Moanalua, the half-witted
creature who frequents the band
concerts. The wife of the de-
fendant lost a ring. Moanalua
was accused of stealing it. He
was bound and tied to a tree by
Mokumaia and beaten until he
confessed. The court remarked
that while it was perhaps hard
to tell what sort of individual
Moanalua was, he was human
being, and his assailant merited
punishment.
A. Benovitz and A. NJ. Souza
were charged with assault and
battery on Moauliilii, in Pauoa
valley. The former is charged
with having commanded Moau-
liilii to blacken his boots and
when the latter refused, is said
to have beaten and abused him,
aided by Souza.
