The barkentine Addenda, from Iqui-
que, Chill, consigned with a load Of
nitrate of soda to Norman watkins as
agent for the Hawaiian Fertilizer Com
pany, caught fire this morning while
lying at the railroad wharf. The fire
was subdued in less than thirty min
utes by the local fire department, as
sisted by the railroad COmpany's pumps
The fire whistles at eleven o'clock
this morning, repeated in a general a
larm after the regular three calls, "a

that the third" fire which has been
freely predicted since Saturdays con-
flagration, was in full blaze. The whis-

from Iquique, Chill, consigned to e
Hawaiian Fertilizer Company through
its agent, assistant superintendent and
chemist Norman Watkins.
The matches had been left off and the
donkey engine was filing up ready for
unloading. The nitrate Is loaded in
sacks which when closely packed are
as inflamable as slow match. 1t is be-
lieved that a spark from the engine
alighted on the sacks and started the
fire. The nitrate, though one OF the
cOnComitants of gunpowder, is no in
tiammable but its heating would cre-

Some followed the engines round by
the jail. Others cut through the oahu
Lumber Company's ards from King

wharves that will receive the Korea

many of the uptown merchants were
there and all the insurance men who

came steaming up from the other side

Fire Chief ThurstOn feeling that he

needed no assistance, requested that
Captain Olson withdraw his hose and

called off with a detail left to watch

AN ENJOYABLE PLAY
SECRET SERVICE BEING EAGERLY
EXPECTED.
Is Perhaps the Pick of the Frawley
Repertoire and the Most Successful
. War Drama.

The announcement of Secret Service,
a war drama well known by reputation
to every play goer of the territory al
though 1t has never been presented in
Hawaii, has created no little talk al
ready coupled with the hope that ar
rangements with the Frawley Company
and the arrival and departure OF the
Korea will not Interfere with the pro-
missed treat.
Secret Service perhaps shows off the
Frawley Company at its best, fact
that may account for it's choice as the
opening piece for the long Manila sea-
son. Ihe company enjoyed a lengthy
run of the play in San Francisco be-
fore those most exacting of critics, the
California press and public and the pre-
sentatitn has been polished to perfec-
ton
The theme of the play is so thrilling
that the wonder lies that other au-
thors did not adopt it long before Mr..
Gillette developed 1t in so satisfactory
a fashion for himself and the play go
ing public. The secret service agents Of
the war, men who were chosen out of
the armies on either side for their ca
paci.y to think and act promptly and
to the best advantage in the face of
constant danger, men who ate, slept
and performed the commonest actions
Add to the deeds of these men, their
rio s and c-unterplots, the excitement
of a love affair, and there is little won
Ge4 [. at the dramatiSt has succeeded in
fixing the interest from overture to
finale There is plenty of comedy IN
Secret Service, pathOs OF a rare as
I 0'e" der and human interest that
will conform to the desires of the most
demandi g of audiences, individuals
or in the mass.
The tale takes up the adventures ana
lCve stories of Louis DumOnt of the
federal army, secret agent at Richmond
under the om-de-guerre of Captain
Thorne, and also of Benton Arriesford
of the South. The two characters are
opposite in the extreme. Thorne is al
ways cool and serious calm when the
other would be excitable, terse where
the other would be over eloquent.
Thorne is the principal character cid
the role is well suited to it's portrayer,
Mr.. Frawley. His dignified and re-
pressed handling of the role in the great
"telegraphic" scene in the third act is
a most excellent piece of acting, non
theatric but forceful. Miss Van Buren
as Edith Varny lays claim to much of
the sympathy and good will of the au-
dience with her spirited rendition aside
from the grace and beauty which she
possesses in no secondary manner.
There are of course many other char
acters in the play and under the skill Il
handling of the dramatist and the
Frawley support none can be said to be
superlluOus or lacking in Importance.
Secret Service will prove to be one of
the events of Honolulu theatrical sea-
sons.

FOUR MEN IN FIFTH
AND BUT TWO
POSITIONS
THE DELEGATES OF THE FIFTH
DISTRICT MEET IN CAUCUS BUT
CANNOT AGREE ON A COMPRo-
.dISE-TWO FACTIONS.

A caucus OF the members of the
Fifth district Republican committee
was held today, in a final effort to
reach compromise in the mater Of a
choIce "a candidates IOr senator. The
district has been admitted by many OF
the Fourth district men to be entitled
to two Of the senatorial candidates who
are to be put up this time, and is like
ly to be able to control the convention
for two of them, with the Fourth dis
tricL assistance that has been assured.
If men can be agreed upon.
The four men talked of by the rival
factions are Senator Achi and Link
McCandless on the one hand and John
G. Lane and DR.. Huddy on the other.
The supporters of Lane and Huddy
have insisted all along that they should
be the two candidates Of the parry,
though at one time there was a good
4 al Of talk of Lane retiring as a SEN
atOrial candidate and being nominated
for the House. Huddy is up with many
pledged 10 support him, and neither
man would withdraw.
The other faction insisted upon Achi
and refused any compromise on the
proposition as far as Achi was con-
cerned. A proposition was mace as a
compromise, however to put up Achi
and Lane, but the supporters of Hud-
ddy refused to agree. The only alter
native, J., was stated, was to go into
the convention without any agreement
and fight it out there thourh This

RICH CARGO
HONGKONG MARU HAD MUCH
OPIUM.
Vessel Caught In Typhoon In Hong
kong Last Month But weathered
Storm Safely-Her Passengers.

The Hongkong Maru arrived yester-
day afternoon rom the Orient with
probably the richest opium cargo that
has passed through this port in many
inOnths. She lett Hongkong August 8
and stopped at Macao the same uay to
receive the special consignment of
opium. The shipment is valued at
$500 600.
While in Hongkong the vessel was
caught in a terrific typhoOn that rag
ed in that port. Captain Filmer was
on deck for hours, drenched to the
skin. Both anchors were ready and
steam was up, for the commander had
no idea what instant the fury of the
storm would seize his vessel. No dam
age was done the vessel, although con-
siderable damage was done to shipping
elsewhere in the harbor. The British
steamer Duke of Fife was so badly
damaged in a collision with another
boat that the Fife had to put back to
port to undergo repairs, her sailing for
Japan and Vancouver being postponed.
In the China Sea the Hongkong Maru
narrowly escaped getting into another
typhoon. She was trailing the storm
all along the way up to NagasaH, but
did not quite catch zip with the rough
weather, the storm having passed Ma
port on August IL.
The vessel left Yokohama August 16.
She experienced adverse winds on the
voyage to Honolulu. She brought Sn
tons of freight for Honolulu. Thirty
eight Chinese returned to this port
from visiting their native land. Only
80 japanese were landed al Honolulu.
One of the most noticeable things
about the passengers in the cabin was
the large number of Russians. A num-
Der OF them stopped at Honolulu.
Barbour Lathrop of San Francisco
who went out to Esia to represent the
Department of Agriculture. is returning
to San Francisco. He is accompanied
by ID. G. Fairchild.
Lieutenant Filippo is a member of
the Italian navy. He was severely
wounded in the head and body during
the siege of Tien-Tsin and only recent
ly recovered his health sufficiently to
permit his travelling.
j. Pitt is an inspector in the Royal
British Navy who is going home from
service in Asiatic waters.
Chan Yin Wah is the president of one
of the six companies of San Francisco.
He is also one of the advisory board
of that powerful organization.
The Hongkong Mahu sailed for San
Francisco shortly after 8 o'clock this
morning. She will arrive the morning
of September /.

spar did not appear to have been in
the water very long. Subsequently it
was proved that it was not from the
Ceylon. Laysan Island was sighted
at S:4O a. m. of the morning of the 18th,
and the steamer was brought to an
Choir by 10 a. m. in six fathoms Of
water. it was then the that relief
expedition learned of the loss of the
Ceylon and the safe arrival of the crew
on Laysan Island on July 8. The total
distance steamed by the vessel was S37
miles in 9l1a hours from Honolulu. BY
o'clock in the afternoon the landing
had been completed and the Hama
lei was ready to take guano.
About S54 tons was loaded aboard
the vessel at the rate of about 20 tons
an hour and by morning of the 18th the
vessel was ready to return to Honolulu
Captain Willer, Mrs. Willer, their lit
tie boy, the eleven members of the
shipwrecked crew, Max Schlemmer
and Herr Won Groffmeyer returned as
passengers. Wreckage of the Ceylon
was washed on Laysan Island before
the steamer departed, indicating that
the boat had gone to pieces and was
not derelict. The Hanalei reached
Honolulu August %.

The HanaIei's Smart Trip

The steamer Hanalei Captain Mosh-
er, set a splendid mark on her recent
special trip to Laysan Island. The Ha-
nalei left here at 1:30 p. m. August 8,
and arrived off Niihau at $3.50 a. m. the
morning of the following day, and took
departure from Lehua Island, sighted
Bird Island at ? p. m, passed the ISL
and at $50 p. M, about half a mile
from shore. There was rough sea pre-
vailing and plenty of birds were seen
about the island. The AlbatrOss was
passed the same afternoon. She SEEM
ed to be dragging at the time. Necker
Island was sighted at o'clock the
morning of the 10th, and passed an
hour later. The flag staff was still
there. There was no sign Of wreckage
anywhere near it. Fine weather was
experienced with a current setting to
the northward about II miles in "a
hours.
Although the vessel had been char
tered especially to take provisions to
Laysan Island and not search for the
Ceylon, Captain Mosher made special
point of taking in all the islands along
the course for it was thought possible
some trace of the missing crew of the
Ceylon might be seen. Gardner Island
was sighted at 7:45 a. m. of the 11th.
Morrow reef was passed during the
night, seven miles away. A large spar

CUPID STRONG ON
THE ISLAND OF
HAWAII
THE YOUNG PRINCES TOUR RE-
PORTED TO BE A BIG SUCCESS
HE is NOW IN THE HOME RULE
CAMP IN KONA DISTRICT.

Everything is Prince Cupid on Ha-
wall. Tie steamer w. G.. Hall arrived
this morning from Kona and Kau ports
with news of the remarkable success
attending the campaign of the young
leader He has caught the favor of the
natives wherever he has gone, and it is
thought certain that the leader of the
KuOkoa party will leave Hawaii with
the big island solidly for him.
Yesterday Prince Cupid addressed a
mass meeting at Kailua. d. Kanuha
and Archie Mahaulu also addressed the
meeting. The remarks of all the
speakers were listened to with much
attention and their various points es-
pecially those against the Wilcox fac
ton seemed to meet with the hearty
approval of the crowd. Prince Cupid
received an ovation when he started to
address the gathering.
Prince Cupid and his party have
toured Kohala and are now going down
through Kona. They were expected to
speak at Kainaliu today. 1t would not
be surprising if the Prince would have
to extend his stay on the big island for
several days as he is besiege1 with in
vitatiOns rom natives to address them
and, in several Instances, he has had 20
make speeches that were not on his
program.
he om5ct of Prince Cupid's cam
paign has been to make the natives re-
gard him as their choice for Delegate
to Congress. People who have talked
with the natives especially along the
Kohala and kona coas,s say that the
natives there are heartily in favor of
running Prince Cupid against Wilcox.
Cupid knows his people and he has GER
tainly gained the good will and politi-
"a uOr n them On a wall If is hn-
lieved by returning people from that
part of Hawaii that Prince Cupid can
sweep the big island if he is nomin-
ated. He has beyond any doubt secur-
ed following that is surprising. His
present tour seems destined to have
great bearing on the approaching cam
paign.

THE NICHOLS CASE
MAY Be CONTESTED

Attorney w. L. Whitney this morn
ing filed a motion to be allowed a fee
in the matter of the bankruptcy of DR..
Albert e. Nichols. Whitney's motion
states that the total assets of the al
legged bankrupt are $1,1lO and the debts
are $2O,250.32. The court allowed a fee
of $75
When the time comes for a motion
for a final discharge of the bankrupt
there will be objections from several
attorneys, it is stated, representing
some OF the larger creditors. InLy
have been making Investigations since
DIR. Nichols remarkable petition was
filed, showing twenty thousand dollars
of debts and about a thousand dollars
assets, some of the latter in bills to be
collected, and efforts will be made to
get at some property which the petit
toner disposed of claims being made
that the transfers were fraudulent.
The deed made by Nichols to his wife
Of his residence property, may be at
tackled. 1t is said to have been made at
a time when he was already bankrupt,
and there is talk of a suit in the Ter
ritorial Circuit Court to cancel the
deed. The property had been mort
gagged, and the cancellation of the deed
would make the mortgage void. The
matter is now in the hands of the ref
cree in bankruptcy.

All Prisoners rIay Be Freed

Judge Gear will call the criminal cal
endar for the first circuit court on Fri
day morning, and there Is much specu-
latiOn as to what disposition will be
made of the cases. The only procedure
so far suggested is to postpone all
cases, but this will meet with many
objections from prisoners. 1t will be
six months before there will be any
money with which to provide jury trials
and defendants who plead not guilty
will have to wait that long for a chance
to be heard, unless some other plan Is
found. Attorney General Dole and the
governor have been considering means
of keeping the wheels of justice in re-
volution, but so far on plan has been
evolved.
The scheme most likely to be adopted
is to allow all prisoners who are await
ing trial to go free on their own recog-
nizance. This would prevent any
habeas corpus proceedings and few if
any would leave the country, it is
thought. The prisoners who are held
for murder however, are thought to be
risk, and with them some other plan
may be followed. With ordinary cases,
however, an arrest during the next six
months will probably mean an immedi-
ate release, to await trial after the leg
islature provides funds.

tions are being made as usual to hold
court. jury will be summoned, and
1t is stated that the term business VIII
be disposed Of 1t is thought that Hardy
will call jurors and compel them to sit
and wait for their pay until there Is
money on hand for them. There is one
murder trial on Hardy's calendar, and
number of minor criminal cases as
well as a list of civil causes. Deputy
Attorney General Douthitt will prose-
cute.
Judge Kalua of Maui has called a

purpose Of naturalizing citizens and
such other business as may come up.
The judge intends to hold court and
Will probably go ahead and do so,

term beginning in October, and in
the first circuit another term opens in
November. In January Judge Little
has a term.
In the first circuit the present term
will be extended, the time being devot-
ed to jury waived cases. One plan
suggested is that the judges take up
the question of forcing jurors to serve
and wait for their pay. Judge Gear in
recent ruling said that this could not be
done, but some Of the other circuit
judges are said 10 hold different views

TWO PORTO RICANS
GET THREE YEARS

Two more Porto Ricans were sent to
Oahu prison this morning, under SEN
tences of three years each. Both of
them escaped heavier penalties by
Tle7 di-g guilty but Gear gave them the,
limit on one charge, cutting il in half
on the other charge. Jose Reveird and
AiCide Ortez, We're given given two
years each on a first charge of larceny
and one year each on a second charge
Deputy Attorney General Cathcart
stated to the court in both cases that
the larceny was stealing from a house at
night time, and that the offensc was
practically burglary. Housebreaking
could not be proved however and the
Sraver charge was not brought Tho
thieves had got in through open doors
and windows.
After disposing of the two criminals
Judge Gear began calling the calendar
of jury waived cases setting them for
trial in their order He announced that
only such cases would be tried during
the rest of the term These are the
only cases we can try now" said the
court. There are 56 jury-waived cases
on the calendar, nearly all of them as
sumpsit cases If there is chance of
getting them tried, many other cases
will be transferred to the jury waived
calendar.
