BOLTE NOT GUILTY
DISCHARGED THIS MORNING BY
JUDGE WILCOX.
Kinney and Mr.. Robertson the Respec-
tive Lawyers for Respective Sides
Argue on Alleged Assault and Battery.

c. Bolte was discharged this morning
by Judge Wilcox Of the charge Of as
sault and battery on Hoo Wa. The pro-
ceedings this morning consisted Of ar
guments by respective counsel W. A.
Kinney for the prosecution was willing
to submit the case without argument,
but A. G.. NJ. Robertson was not.
Mr.. Robertson took the stand that
AMOS force of men had no right what
ever on the land in question where the
assault and battery was alleged to have
been committed. From the evidence,
given yesterday, the row was caused
over the contention of Ahlo for a right
of way across certain lands which Mr.
Bolte controlled. on January II, the
hume Of Mr. Ahlo was torn up al the
order of Mr.. Bolte but two days later,
AhlO came with a force of men to
replace the flume. 1t was cOntended by
Mr. Robertson that the defendant had
a right to use sufficient force to remove
the complainant who had no right there
and that further more, no malice had
been shown.
For the prosecution, Mr.. Kinney con-
tended that it was not necessary TO
show malice. The two sides had con-
trary claims regarding the right of way
across the land and Mr.. Ahlo had had
the ditch and flmue running across
the lang for some years and had
right of way. Mr.. Bolte had stated that
he feared the statute of Limitation
would expire and give Ahlo permanent
righ, Of way which was not conceded
to him by the owners of the land. Mr..
Kinney claimed that it was entirely
wrong for Mr.. BOlte to take the law
into his own hands and use any force
whatever to remove the complaining
witness who was an employe of Ahlo.
on the contrary the matter should have
been carried to the corts.
Judge Wilcox reviewed the case at
some length and said that the alleged
assault was of such a trning character
that he did not consider it constituted
an offence. BOlte had asked Ahlo Ia
order the men away from the work OF
repairing the fiume but AhlO had said
he would prefer that Mr.. Bolte should
use some force to compel the men tc
leave. Mr.. Bolte had thereupon, shov-
ed against the various sixteen laborers
and told them to leave, whereupon they
all did so and Mr.. Bolte and Mr. AhlC
came down town together. The court
could not see any offence and found the
defendant not guilty

ably break ground for their new build
ing within the new six months. There
has been talk of it for some time and
the trustees have lately had plans
drawn and accepted and the site sur

The ground, which belongs to the or
der, is on Fort street, opposite the new
convent, and runs from the Love build
ing to Chaplain lane leaving a gap of
vacant land between there and the
Progress Block, making an admirable
site for a business block.
The building will be of six stories con-
structed probably of something out of
the ordinary in stone, which will be
shipped here for the purposes and is de-
signed in the composite style of modern
business block architecture. Stores be-
low and offices above with one floor

Every detail will be modern and up-tO-
date and the erection will be under the
supervision of the Hawaiian COnstruc-
tion Company
The business men in upper Fort

favor of the new building. Many of
them were greatly disappointed in the

Times HAVE CHANGED
DEFENDANTS HAVE TO BE PROV

Judge Wilcox Says Men Can't be Lock-
ed Up on General Principle as Under
Provisional Government.

Conditions have changed in Honolulu
since Annexation. Judge Wilcox says
that a number of people do not seem
to appreciate that fact hOweVed. He
had occasion to make this observation
this morning when a Porto Rican darky
was arraigned on a charge of vagrancy-
The defendant was charged with not
having had visible or lawful means OF
support for two weeks, proceeding his
arrest. He certainly looked the part
The defendant said, in answer to the
charge, that he had been employed by
a native man who gave him in return,
all the clothes and food necessary.
"Wel you don't look as if he gave
you any soap observed the court.
Judge Wilcox might have added that
the fellow did not look as if his en-
plOyer had given him any shirts, for an
undershirt served for lack Of a coat
You will have to prove this man
guilty" remarked Judge WilcoN. 1T
is very hard for some people to get
over the fact that we are not living un-

High Sheriff Chillingworth "aud l am

START NEW INDUSTRY
KOA WOOD BEING SENT TO THE
COAST.
S. n. Castle win Take Big Deckload Of
Hard Wood-stun to be Made Into
Furniture

The barkentine S. n. Castle is loading
an unusual cargo for San Francisco.
About seven tons or more Of Hawaiian
wood is being put on the vessel for
transportation to the Coast Practical
ly all Of the wood is koa and it is to be
made into furniture, calabashes and
other articles
The expectation Of Hawaiian wood in
such quantity is an entirely new indus
try. The fame and beauty Of the koa
has of course been known on the coast
for years and one furniture manufac-
tory, more enterprising than the majO-
rity has decided that a profitable re-
venue can be derived from the manu-
facture of furniture and stuff out OF
Hawaiian wood and has decided to ham
die koa wood material as a regular
thing.
A large quantity of wood is being
taken by the Castle and the big logs will
take up almost all the spare room on
the vessels deck. The logs are to be
lashed on the deck and will be delivered
in San Francisco. The stuff came res
Gently from Hawaii on one of the
steamers.
1t is said that orders for more of the
materials have been given and quite ar
industry will be created between the
islands and the Coast for a while, with
kOa woods.

MAGNETIC STATION.
BUILDING FINISHED AND SER
VICE BEGUN.
A Federal Governments Agent Keep
ing Watch over Variations in the
Magnetic Current.

The new United States magnetic sta
tion is complete and has been opened
and started according to instructions.
1t is located on this island, makai of
Eva plantation, in a small building
erected for the purpose, and is in
charge of J. A. Fleming, of the u. S.
Survey Office who spends all his time
at the station.
Fleming came here to superintend the
construction Of the building and take
charge of the work after it was built.
He has done the same work before and
is an expert on the subject of magnetic
influences. The federal governments
station here is one of large number
of similar stations established in vari-
Gus parts of the world for the purpose
of investigating variations in the mag
netic needle. Fleming's duty is to
keep records from day to day and re-
port to the government at stated inter-
walls. The variations are largely re-
corded automatically, so that all he has
to do is to keep the time instruments
and others in good order, and make up
his records.
The movements of the magnetic nee
die present a problem with which
science has not been able to make much
progress Variations are constant and
there are various theories as to the
cause. It don't know much about mag
netism myself said Professor AleXan-
der, in whose department the magne-
tic observatory is, "and no one else
does. We know that the variations
noted are constant and that they are
apparently affected by altitude and
other causes. The whole earth is a big
magnet. 1t seems that the force is in
some way connected with the sun and
sunspots have been pointed out as haV-
ing an effect on the magnetic needle.
We don't know what the force is The
whole subject of magnetism, electricity
and light is very fascinating, and per-
haps the stations being established by
the government will give us some fur
ther knowledge"
The station on this Island is about
a mile and a half from sea shore, be-
tween the railroad and the beach, ma
llai of Eva plantation. 1t Is building
specially designed for the use to which
it is put, the walls being without any
metal, even so much as a nail They
are double, with packing of sawdust
between the two parts. In this secure
little structure, unaffected by anything
but the mysterious disturbances which
students of the needle have observed
all over the world, Uncle Sam keeps a
needle. and supplies instruments and an
expert to watch it. Possibly the re-
ports of all the similar stations, put
together at Washington, will throw
light on the causes of magnetic storms
and other phenomena, and supply IN
formation that may be of great value
to navigation and to other sciences

WILL TAKE OLD IRON
INDUSTRY IN SCRAP IRON BEING
ESTABLISHED.
Helene VIII Receive Quite Load For
Her Trip Next Month to San Fran

When the schooner Helene goes to the
coast next month she will carry an odd
cargo. She will be given a large guam
tity of SCRAP iron. This stuff forms am

first cargo that has gone from here to
San Francisco. German and Patton are.
shipping the iron.
Some months ago, the schooner Rob
ert Levers carried a lot of scrap iron
to Seattle but the collector of that port
gave Captain Underwood considerable
annoyance about landing the material
claiming that all of it was not of Anne
rican manufacture and in consequence.
should be charged duty. The case was
carried to the Treasury Department
where the collector was overruled
Since then, the local people and "a Mr.
Winkleman Of Maui have gone into the
business of gathering all the old iron
about the various islands and sending it
to the Coast The schooner Alice
Kimball which arrived today from
Eleele was expected to bring about s.
tons of old iron from that place but,
owing to the presence Of two steamers
and a schooner. the Kimball couldn't
wait to get the load. 1t will be brought
down by her the next trip.
This shipment is to go in the Helene
and considerable more iron is to be dis
patched in that boat. She will not saif
for two or three weeks yet and when
she does clear, it is expected that the
shipment of old iron will be the largest
that has ever left this port
There is sufficient quantity Of the
stuff remaining in the islands to pro-
vide a number of cargOes or partial car
goes at least, and it is likely that con
siderable business in this line will be
done for some months
