MULE CARS COLLIDE
PAINS SYSTEM UPSET AT LUNCH
TIME.
Nuuanu and Waikiki Chariots Bump
a Little Bit At Fort and King
Streets.

Contrary to all established prece-
dents two of Pains arks collided with
each other this noon nour at the juno
tion of Fort and King streets. Car No.
II was coming from the mountains at
lively rate ana attempted to cross
King as another car running at top
speed from Waikiki in an apparent en-
deavOr to beat out the electric cars cn
the home stretch, went across Fort,
bound Palama way.
Neither of the drivers were looking
about them and the two cars bumped
in lively fashion. The few Cinnamon
who were passengers were more fright
ened than hurt. The mules were the only
ones who sustained any apparent dam
age, one of them being knocked to the
ground and getting mixed up under
neath the King street car. The two
drivers, after they had satisfied them
selves with mutual compliments and
animated criticisms on their respective
eyesights and styles of driving, eXtri-
Gated the mule and propped it up
against it's team mate in the Fort
street chariot.
Both cars then went on their way
with their Pake passengers, the mule
seeming little the worse for its rough
and tumble adventure. The little crowd
OF spectators returning from luncheon
laughed and moved on, the circus hav-
ing been concluded for the day.

EXTORTIONERS HERE

In the account given in the 13aWati
Herald of the murder of Motto Hiro a
carpenter of Hilo by a strong arm
gang headed by a gambler, slave owner
and hotel keeper named Funakoshi, it
is stated that two of the disreputable
characters who used Kunakoshi's hotel
as a resort and are supposed to have
abetted him in his blackmail schemes
are gamblers from Honolulu named
Ushijima and SEQ. They are supposed
to have arrived in Hilo about four
months ago.
Deputy Sheriff Chillingworth corro-
borates the statement that some of the
Funakoshi gang were originally lOcat-
ed in Honolulu and adds that they were
charged here with eXtortion afterwards
leaving the island. Japanese who have
come from Hilo to work in Honolulu
have from time to time complained Of
the bad gang" in Hilo who gambled
with them but took their money any
way but no definite charges have ever
been brought nor have any names Of
the alleged gang been mentioned
1t is supposed that whatever the re-
suit of the trial. all of those connected
with the case, will if they are still at
liberty be requested to leave the island.
The Honolulu authorities will not be
best pleased to have them locate here
and will take the first opportunity of
placing them where they will cease
from troubling. The local police de-
partment believe these men responsible
for the death of the carpenter although
they are not of course in touch with all
the details as yet. Chillingworth has
knowledge that there is a desperate
gang of Japanese in Hilo who are cap
able of almost anything in the black
mailing line.

MANY BARKS ARRIVE AUGUST TERM OPENS
TWO FROM NEWCASTLE, ONE
FROM CARDIFF.
Sailor Dies On American Vessel Short
ly After Leaving Newcastle-Edward
May From San Francisco.

Shipping was very busy on the water
front yesterday. No less than four sail
ing vessels arrived from foreign ports,
in addition to the regular Island steam
ers.
The French bark Montebello arrived
from Caruiu via cydney. she brought
a tOtai cargo OF 200 tons of coal, of
which 100 as Tor Honolulu and the rest
tor san Francisco. she experienced
pleasant trip, but took considerable
tine in whicn to make the run from
Sydney. She was 81 days out from
Syuuey, ana 15I days Tor the entire
"Trip. she has aboard as an apprentice,
a son of General De Lorme who is a
prominent OuCer in the French army.
The vessel is docked at the Naval
wharf. The vessel is a fine craft and
is ntted with quarters for passengers.
The Norwegian bark City of Agra
and the American bark General Fair
child came up from Newcastle in fair
time, the Norwegian bark making port
in two days shorter time than the Am
erican vessel The Fairchild took As
days in which to make the run. The
Guy OF Afra has 1905 tons of coal.
ON board the General Fairchild is
Captain McCarron, who is quite well
known among seafaring people His
wife and daughter are with him. The
only incident reported by Captain Nc
Carron regarding the trip was the
death of sailor named j. Rasmussen.
The sailor was shipped at Newcastle.
The first day after leaving that port,
the sauor complained of being i'll and
secured some medicine from the cap
tain The sailor became worse and on
the sixth day out, June 26, died He
was buried at sea. Captain McCarran
said tnaU while not physician he
thought that the sailor had succumbed
to the effects of eating green fruit. The
vessel has 22ZO tons of coal for Homo
lulu. She will pay her crew off at this
port
The bark Edward May arrived from
San Francisco yesterday morning with
general cargo for Honolulu and Ma
kawel. She will go to the latter port
probably this week, from where she
will sail with cargo of sugar for San
Francisco.
The schooner Robert Levers arrived
this morning from Port Ludlow.

CEYLON is OVERDUE
HER OWNERS ARE WORRIED
ABOUT HER.
Requests the Albatross To Keep
Special Lookout For Any Wreckage
or the Ceylon's Crew.

The U. 5. Fishing Commission Ship
Albatross, Captain Thomas, was in
structed yesterday by Captain Whit
ing, the commandant of the Naval Sta
ton, to keep a sharp lookout for any
trace of the wreckage or crew OF the
bark Ceylon. The Ceylon is now out 6l
days on her round trip from Honolulu
to Laysan Island, and H. Hackfeld q
Company, her owners, are beginning to
feel rather worried over her delay.
Last Saturday Alexander Isenberg of
the hrm called upon Captain Whiting
and asked that word be sent to Captain
Thomas asking him to keep a special
lookout for any wreckage or the crew
of the Ceylon, as 1t was feared some
harm might have befallen the vessel,
Word was sent to the AlbatrOss which
was then lying at Hanalei Captain
Thomas came to Honolulu for further
instructions yesterday, and set sail in
a few hours. He is going to Bird ISL
and which is about 100 miles from Kau-
al, and during the trip he may see
some trace of the vessel or her crew, if
they had to abandon her.
The bark went to Laysan Island 6l
days ago after load of guano. Ordin-
arily she makes the round trip in 30
to 40 days at the outside, and as she is
considerably overdue, alarm is felt for
her. On the last trip from Laysan ISL
and, the vessel sprung a leak and the
pumps had TO be kept going during the
entire voyage to Honolulu. 1t is possi-
BILE that similar thing may have hap
pened on the present trip. 1t Is thought
that the vessel is delayed on account of
having to stand up to the northward
in order to catch the trades and come
down to Honolulu.
1t is possible that an inter-island
steamer may be chartered and sent af-
ter the boat in a few days, If no trace
of her is found. The Ceylon is gener-
ally regarded as a good sea boat.

CLAIM CERTIFICATES.
GEAR TAKES UP MANDAMUS
AGAIN.
Question of Why Austin Does Not
Give Out Warrants May Be Taken
Tn

The matter of the mandamus writ is
sued on petition of Magoon and Peters
directing Clerk j. M. Riggs of the Fire
Claims Commission to deliver to Mrs.
Luning her certificate of award, with
out the payment of the fee Of "a de-
manded under the rules of the Commits
sion, came up this morning before
Juuge Gear. The matter is to be fur
ther argued this afternoon.
Attorney Peters offered to prove by
Witnesses that on account of an agree
ment between the Fire Claims Commits
sion and Auditor Austin, Mrs. Luning
could not secure her warrant for the
amount she had been awarded, unless
she first obtained a certificate Of
award. Her petition set forth that she
had been given an award and could not
get it, because of Riggs refusal to give
her the certificate unless she paid, and
she was not willing to pay. Judge Gear
showed a disposition to go into the
whole matter, and the reasons why
Austin does not issue warrants may be
inquired into as well as the reasons
why certificates are not issued except
on payment of fees for them.
Attorney General Dole contended
that the action of Austin had no bear
ing on the matter. There is no law
requiring the clerk to make out or de-
liver any certificate at ALL whether a
fee is paid or not paid, said the AttOr-
ney General.
Gear wanted to know what would be
Doles idea of the case If it was shown
that the auditor would not issue war;
rant unless there was a certificate thus
making II impossible for a claimant to
get his or her award without a certi-
fiCate.
The auditor is not the law" said
Dole. Il apprehend that the court Will
not render a judgment based on what
the auditor says he will do or will not
90. The law doesn't require us to is
sue any certificate"
Judge Gear said that he thought it
proper to allow testimony to the effect
that a warrant could not be obtained
except on presentation of a certificate,
and he set the further hearing of the
case for o'clock this afternoon.

MAY AVEFANNIEK KERR
CEYLON MIGHT HAVE FOUND
THE DERELICT.
Captain Willer Must Have Passed
Through Part of Pacific Where Boat
Is Thought To Be.

Has the bark Ceylon found the Fan
ME Kerr?
This is the question that is receiving
considerable discussion along the wa
ter front. The Ceylon is now consider
ably overdue from Laysan Island, and
the reason for her delay is naturally
being discussed. BY many weli-in-
formed marine people, il is thought
very probable that Captain Willer Of
the CeylOn may have located the aban-
doned British bark and may be trying
to get her to Honolulu and claim the
salvage money which such a find
would certainly bring.
1t IS now bl days since the Ceylon
left Honolulu for Laysan Island. Or
dinarily she makes the round trip from
Honolulu to Laysan Island, in consid-
erably shorter time, 40 days being set
usually for the limit. Owing to the pre-
Vailing northeast trades, however, the
vessel naturally has to take a much
longer time to make the run from Lay
san Island to Honolulu than usual.
After the Ceylon got her load of qua
no from Laysan Island, she probably
stood up to the northward a couple of
degrees, so as to take the trades and
come down to Honolulu. The course
which Captain WilleT would have TAX
en- going north, would be in the proX-
unity of where the Fannie Kerr was
abandoned by Captain Gibbons, in lati-
ture about 20 degrees north and longi-
tude 1863 west. This spot is not over a
couple Of hundred miles to the north
east of Laysan Island While, of
course, the Fannie Kerr has probably
not remained in the same stop since
May 20, the date when she was aban-
doned, she is believed by seafaring
men to be still somewhere in that vi
cinity, and it is said by many that Cap
tain Wlller may have run on the bark,
put crew aboard her and is trying to
bring her to Honolulu.
Should this theory be correct, it will
certainly be a big hit for Willer, for,
in addition to gaining several thousand
dollars, he will gain fame among ship
owners and seafaring men, that will
cause him as much elation as the
money probably would.

RAIN AND LIGHTNING
HEAVY SHOWER THIS MORNING
ON OAHU.
Reports Seem to Show That Downpour
Was General over the Island-Elec-
trio Disturbances.

A heavy rain this forenoon caught
many people without umbrellas, made
good business for the hacks and sold
few mackintoshes on the spur of the
moment. For a few minutes in town
the dOwnpour was very severe and PEE
destrians darted for shelter here to re-
main until the worst of the shower was
past. Some vivid lightning flashes aid
ed the general impression that the city
was in for a heavy storm from the
south.
The lightning came from the east and
southwest and Professor Lyons states
that the electric conditions prevailed all
day yesterday, when the barometer fell
steadily all day This morning the rain
started at about nine a. M and while
severer in some parts of the city, the
downpour was fairly general. The rain
came from the southwest. AT Punahou
24-100'ths of an inch fell. Professor
Lyons believes that there was probably
considerable rainfall on Maui yester-
day.
Sailors coming in from the other ISL
ands state that Oahu seemed to be the
center of a rainfall that extended all
over the island.
In his forecast Observer Curtis J..
Lyons states that it will rain again.
The rain is classed as a heavy shower,
with electric storm, the wind being
light and southerly.
King street was quickly flooded tenn
porarily and for a while the electric
cars experienced some difficulty in go
ing through the water. The eXcava-
tion for the new Kapiolani Estate
building to be erected on the corner or
Alakea and King, was the recipient
of all the water that came down Alakea
street and soon was several inches deep
in rain water.
