OF
COMMERCE

The Chamber OF Commerce met this
afternoon at two o'clock twenty being
present including j. b. Atherton, }. Dr.
Spencer, NJ. Phillips, Archibald Young,
w. Weldon r. A. Schaefer, W. w. Dl-
mond, w. w. Hall and f. j. LOwrey.
After the reading of the minutes, j.
b. AthertOn as chairman of the commit
tee appointed on the question of asking
for federal aid i'm cleansing the city
reported work at some length. The re-
COmmendatiOn of the committee was
that affairs be left as they are at pre-
sent as they was no immediate emer-
gency or cause for alarm. All that is
possible is being done with the eXcep-
tiOn that the Board of Health fall short
of carrying out all they wish through
the lack of $500 a month with which to
appoint new inspectors and be able to
work the big fumigating sulphur ma
chine i'm case of necessity. The COM
mittee was agTeeably surprised al the
statistics of cases for the past year the
number having fallen short Of their
expectations, The Board Of Health
was anxious as to the $500 "a month and
stated that work could beNmade much
canvass the city merchants for the equi-
yalent of that sum until the legislature
next met.
Mr. Schacfer emphasized the need of
the fumigatinE machine at certain times
adding that the money was most need
ed for fresh inspectors "a larger number
of which would make the work Of the
Board much more effective,

REBELLION IN CHINA 1T MAY Be MURDER
SUSPICIOUS CASE REPORTED
FROM KAUAI
Native Sailor of the Steamer Iwalani
Found Dead Close to Waimea Wharf
Last Monday Night.

What may prove to be another muir
der mystery was reported from Kauai
this morning by the steamer IWatani.
one OF the native crew of the vessel.
named Pillu, was found dead ON the
beach near the wharf at Waimea, last
Monday night ana at the time of the
vessels departure from Kauai, the in
cidents leading TO the mans death had
not been ascertained. SuiiOCation was
given as the immediate cause OF death
however by the attending physician.
The sailor went ashore on Sunday
with some other natives but famed 10
return to the steamer that night. He
is said to have been duuklu- WIN
some people ashore. On Sunday night
he slept on the wharf with several
other men but they claim to have miss
ed him in the morning. Late that aft
ernOon the body of the missing native
was found on the beach near the wharf
The only marks on the BODY We're some
slight scratches on the face and some
bruises about the eyes. The left arm
was scratched but this might have
been caused by the body being washed
against the rocks
An autopsy showed that death had
not been due to drowning but suffoca-
ton from some other cause not stated
to any of the officers of the Iwalani
As the vessel had to leave Waimea yes
terday, the officers were unable to
learn additional details of the affair.
The Kauai authorities will investigate
the case.

many BOERS KILLED
KITCHENER GAINS ANOTHER BIG
VICTORY.
General Botha Was Captured by the
British Who Allowed Him to Escape.
Many Prisoners Taken.

LONDON February 2S.-Following
the precedent Of Lord Roberts, who an
nounced General Cronje's surrender at
Paardeburg i'm the anniversary of the
Battle of Maiuba hill February o. 1851
Lord Kitchener apparently selected the
same anniversary to achieve a big sue
cess by combined movement lasting
two days against the Boer forces within
the Harrismith and Van Reeman line of
blOckhOuses. The BOer losses aggregate
500 men killed or captured, and 1000
horses and $4,000 head Of cattle fell Into
the hands of the British troops.
CHICAGO, Februarg 2S.-A cable
to the Record Herald from London says
War Secretary Brodrick announced in
the Commons today that General de
Vets son had been captured, but he
failed to impart to the legislators the
more surprising news that the famous
General, Louis BOtha, had also been
made a prisoner and had got away
again. That is a story held in reserve,
and will result In COuTt-martial.
The affair happened after the cap
tuTe of BOtha's laager near knapdaar.
When Rimington's troops made a
night attack at Knapdaar they cap
tured several prisoners. Among the
men taken was BOtha, but the British
did not recognize him. After the pur-
suit of the fugitives had ended the cap
tured men were divided into groups,
and Botha was included in the number
that We're intrusted to the care of the
rear guard.
Another force Of Beers, hearing of
the disaster to the main body, and that
their General had been captured men
aced the British command. In the con-
fusion of the expected attack the body
of British troops that held Botha as
their prisoner permitted a few of the
burghers to escape, and among the
number was the redoubtable Botha.

Jurge Gear then continued the Nc
Carthy trial to p. m. and ordered a
recess Of court to eleven o'clock, to al
low Biting time to prepare an atlida-
Wit on which to base his motion for
citations.
The three Circuit Judges-Gear,
Humphreys and Robinson sat together
when Biting appeared with a lengthy
attidavit setting forth the history of
the Mccarthy case, including his for
mer release by Gear after being found
guilty of mayhem, the new indictment
brought by the Grand Jury, the COM
menCement of the trial yesterday aft
ernoon and the publication of the car
tOOn this morning in the Advertiser.
Biting characterized the cartoon as
insulting, cOntemptuOus, COntumelOus
and diSrepeCtful," intended to be dis
repectful to the Hon. George ID. Gear,
intending to represent the former aC-
ton of the court in ludicrous and dis
graceful manner and to prejudice the
minds of the people in a case pending
i'm the court and before the Honorable
George ID. Gear.
The three judges appeared to agree
that it was proper to issue a citation,
and Judge Gear, presiding, announced
at once that the citations asked for
would be issued, Biting asked for ci-
tations against walter c. Smith, edi-
tor and Blank, Blank, etc, managers
and employees of the Pacific CONNER
cial Advertiser" The citations were
made returnable forthwith.
Judge Humphreys made a few re-
marks after the decision had been Civ
en-. Il deem it proper to say that this
case affords a striking instance of the
attitude of the Attorney General tow
ards this court" he said IF the at
tOrney general or his employees were in
hNr nf
CenCy or prOprieties of their position,
private counsel would not be in the
position of making this motion. But
this is an example of the consistent
hostility of the Attorney Generals
course up to this time"
Assistant Attorney General Douthitt
stated that he had only arrived in
court at nearly ten o'clock this morn
ing, and that Biting had at once tax
en- hold OF the proposition and made
the motion. Humphreys replied that
the explanation was plausible as far
as the present matter was concerned,
but added that the duty of the Attor-
ney General towards the court did not
end with conducting prosecutions.
Humphreys said there had been re-
peated publications recently which
should have caused the Attorney Cen
eral to take the initiative and bring
those responsible into court for con-
tempt.
This stirred up George A. Davis, who
announced himself as associate cOun-
sci with Biting for Mccarthy, and
proceeded to roast the Attorney Gen
eral and the newspapers. Davis agreed
with Judge Humphreys that the AttOr-
ney General ought to have taken the
alleged contempts into court He said
that no words of the judges or any one
else could express the COWardlineSs and
disrepeCt Of recent comments made up
on the judges of the Circuit Court, noi
the Attorney Generals dereliction OF
duty in failing to bring the offenders
to answer.
The citations were issued this after
noon and made returnable at o'clock
Judge Gear appointed Davis amicu!

estS.

FAMOUS TONGAN DEAD.

SUVA, Fiji, February 28.-Word has
been received of the death in Tonga of
Ana Mate the widow of the great Va
vauan chief Mate -Ki-TOnga, the
grandson of the celebrated Finau. Ana
Mate was 70 years of age, and had
been blind for some years at the time
of her DEATH which was not altogether
unexpected.
The funeral of Ana Mate was scarce
ly over when news reached Nukualota
that Latu, eldest son of the late high
chief Alta, had died at a. m. on the
18th instant at HihifO. Had this young
chief lived but another month, until
March, he would have attained his ma
tority, and have succeeded to his faith
er's possessions, and have thus become
one of the most powerful and highest
chiefs i'm Tonga.
