HAVING
KILLED WATSON

George Faris, alias Kentucky Bill"
who stabbed and killed John Watson
on Wednesday night, in a joint back
of the brewery on Queen street, ald
then made his escape, was captured
yesterday by Deputy Sheriff Chilling
worth and Special officer Renear, on
the road near Oahu College.
About noon word was telephoned to
The police station that man answer
ing the description of Faris, was eating
in Chinaman's house in Manoa val
ley. Chillingworth and Renear at o ce
proceeded in a hack to the place mem
toned and came upon their man on the
road near Oahu College. He made no
attempt to get away and was placed in
the hack and driven to the police sta
ton.
At the police station Fars admitted
having killed Watson and said that he
did so because he was always bother
ing him and looking for trouble.
Fars it is said, comes from Ohio, but
spent a good part of his life in Ken
lucky. Those who know him describe
him as being a great boaster, but with
al an arrant coward, and a man whose
ambition was to pose as a bad man
before the multitude.
watson. the man killed, came here n
few months ago with a shipment of
horses from the coast, and has been
working around horses ever since. He
was well known in places where horse
men congregate and seemed to be de-
cent enough fellow, but who. for some
reason or other, always missed hitch
ing with a steady job of work.
The inquest was held last night at
the police station, the testimony Of
Daniel Smith and others who We're
nearby when the deed was committed,
being taken. The verdict returned by
the coroners jury was as follows:
That the said John Watson came to
his death at Honolulu. on the 10Th day
of April, 1902, from internal hemor-
rhage, caused by knife wound inh'ct-
ed by one George Faris, alias Ken
lucky Bill" said George Faris then and
there inficting said injuries with intent
to kill said John Watson.
The jury consisted uI j. r. Collins,
c. w. Martin, o. c. Harris. Adolph
Bremen, T.. Eween, George Ward.
George Faris will probably be
brought up for preliminary examina-
ton in the police court this morning.
A charge of murder in the first degree
has been preferred against him.

Cuban Reciprocity

WASHINGTON, April 6.-The great
battle over Cuban reciprocity, which
created such protracted struggle
among the Republicans, both in caucus
and in the Committee on Ways and
Means, will be fought on the floor of
the House this week. The ultimate
passage Of the Payne bill. providing
for a 20 per cent reduction on the prod
ucts of Cuba after the negotiation Of a
reciprocity treaty and the enactment of
our immigration laws by the Republic
of Cuba, Is regarded as a foregone con-
ciusion, but the situation is a compli-
Gated one, owing to the division among
the Democrats as we'll rs the Repub-
licans. How far the Republican OPP
ponents Of the proposed legislation viii
carry their objection il not determined
The strength of this opposition has
awlndled until 1t probably numbers les
than thirty.

JOHN ENA IS
STILL PRESIDENT

John Ena was reelected president
of the Inter-Island Steam Navigation
Company. Limited, at the adjourned
annual meeting held yesterday morn
ing at 10 o'clock in the offices of the
company on Queen street. All the old
officers were reelected with the eX-
ception of the auditor. 1t was expect
ed that when the stockholders met
there would be a fight for the control
of the company, but the meeting pro
duced little change
The list of officers reelected yester-
day We're: President John Ena; vice
president. j. l.. McClain; treasurer, n.
T. Gedge: secretary. G. ii. Clapp, audi
tor. A. w. Bottomley.
The following directors will serve
for the ensuing year: John Ena, A.
Dreier. c. NJ. Cooke. w. .. Smith, G.
n. Wilcox. ii. A. Isenberg, j. NJ. Dew
sett.
The consideration of changes in the
bylaws was deferred until such time
as the board of directors sees mt to
bring the matter up for discussion. The
officers were reelected under the pro-
visions named in the old bylaws. G.
M. Cooke and ii. A. Isenberg were
elected members of the board OF direc
tors in place of A. S. Wilcox and II.
Nj. Won Holt. both of whom resigned.
Mr.. Ena stated after the meeting that
nothing was done regarding a change
in the service of the steamers or the
management. 1t has been rumored for
some time that a policy Of retrench-
ment is likely to occur, and that many
parts of the service would be affected.
Reports were presented at the meeting
suggesting reforms of this nature, and
were only casually taken up for con-
sideration.
Mr.. Ena made a statement that he
intended going away in a few months
and that when he did, he would prob
ably resign the presidency. There are
several men in consideration for the
place and the chances are that when
the special meeting is called for the
purpose of electing his successor, there
will be more than one candidate.
