S. P. C. A. WORK IN STORM
Gratifying Decrease in Cases
of Cruelty to Horses
Only Seven Arrests.

The Society for the Prevention of Cruel
ty to animals made public the following
statement
The society had less trouble during this
storm than in any other previous blizzard
since its organization. There was very
little cruelty to horses and in many cases
such unnecessary acts of drivers were
prevented by officers and members OF the
society 1t may be surprising TO most
people to know that in many instances
where drivers did abuse their horses and
where Officers of the society were not
stopping the cruelty. One hundred and
thirty-five teams were helped up hills in
Jersey City and Hoboken; 1so horses were
blanketed, Is horses that had become
lame from stepping in frozen ruts were
sent to their stables disabled horses
were removed TO the hospital IN large alil-
balances. and upwards Of 50 dogs and
eats homeless and starving we're taken
OF the streets and removed TO the shelter
horses were received at shelter.
The officers removed a large number
OF electric wires which were strewn about
the streets on Friday night and Saturday
sand was strewn on sleety and snowy
hills. snow was removed from places
where wagons were apt to be stuck. and
a large number of horses unable TO pull
their loads were REINFORCED through the
agency OF the society by extra horses
The society sent from It's Office a grear
many letters to employers of drivers who
had been seen over-driving, over-work-

horses Extra officers have been at the

JAMES BOYD NOW AT
THE CALIFORNIA
STATE FAIR
LETTERS RECEIVED FROM HIM
BY THE CHINA SAYS HE WILL
RETURN AT ONCE If HIS PRES
ENCE is NECESSARY.

Manuel Cook, Acting Chief Clerk in
the Public Works Department, received
brief and hurried note by the China
from Superintendent James Ii. Boyd.
in this BOYD says that he has just
heard of the trouble into which b. H.
Wright has fallen, but suppose that ali
necessary steps in the matter have
been taken, aoding that if the govern
ment so advises him he will return at
once.
Cook says that it is evident from the
letter itself that it was hurriedly writ
ten, because while it is dated the place
where it was written is not given. Cook
says the letter is postmarked, but he
did not bring the letter with him to
the office this morning, and he does not
remember to have noticed from what
office it was postmarked,
A letter received by the China from
an acquaintance of Boyd's says that
he had planned to go to Sacramento for
several days, to attend the State Fair
being held there.
There was intense interest manifest
ed all over town yesterday as to wheth-
er Mr.. Boyd would return by the China
or not. AS soon as it was known that
the China was in port inquiries as to
whether he bad returned were being
made all over town. One shape which
the general interest in the question
took was in the form of bets. 1t is
said that a great many wagers on the
subject were laid and that the odds
in some of these were five to one that
he would not return by the China, not
five to one that he would not return at
all, but that he would not return by
the China.
Just at present the Public Works De-
partment is without an active head.
When Boyd left for the coast he ar
ranged with Treasurer Wright to take
charge of the office. Now Wright Is
gone. Secretary of the Territory Coop
er has been commissioned by the Gov
ernor Acting Treasurer, but as the ar
rangement between Boyd and Wright
was a personal one, Mr.. Cooper does
not consider that his commission as
Treasurer gives him succession to
Wright as Acting superintendent Of
Public Works, and he has not assum-
ed that office.
Frank Godfrey who has been em-
ployed of late in the Public Works De-
partment by Boyd, went out to the
China in the pilot boat and was very
anxious in his inquiries when the boat
reached the side of the vessel as to
whether Boyd was aboard or not. He
had a letter which he announced he
wanted delivered to Mr.. Boyd at once
if he was aboard.

quiet, steady market for Raws, with
a firm undertone, is in evidence ac-
cording to latest mail advices from
New York under date of the 18th inst.
The demand for Refined is excellent,
and Notwithstanding large deliveries,
rehners are oversold. Present appear
ances seemingly warrant the eXpecta-
tion of continuance of a heavy demand
in this article for a longer period than
is customary throughout the closing
months of the year, in which event re-
liners are likely to purchase literally
to the advantage of holders of raw SUI
gars. European Beet crop reports are
favorable, and preliminary estimates
based on Mr.. LIGHTS figures of a prob
able deficiency of 10 to 20 per cent per
acre In the weights, cannot admit of
decrease in the next European Beet
crop of more than 500 900 to 700, 900 tons
from that of last year. Latest esti-
mates from Cuba reveal a balance Of
lf6'OOO tons still remaining there, of
which l26OOO tons are in first hands
Weather reports are satisfactory. Fig
ures show that approximately so 900
tons OF Java sugars remain unsold, a
portion of which may still go to China
and Japan.

United States Commissioner Gill this
morning held Asahib to the grand jury
in bonds of $1,000. He was arrested by
Deputy High Sheriff Chillingworth and
officers Renear and McDufie in the
mountains near Waimanalo. A part
of the still was found and quite a guam
tity of ii root in different stages of pre-
paratiOn for mash, an a very small
quantity of okolehao. While there was
abundant evidence to indicate that oko-
lehao making had been going on there
the evidence was not overwhelming tC
connect Asahi with it, though it was
sufficient in the mind of the Commits
sioner to warrant his being held to the

AUSTIN TO Be FIRED

Auditor Austin and the appointment of

says that upon such notice he will not
recognize Austin as auditor. The gov
ernor says that after publication of
such notice no warrant drawn by Aus
tin will be legal.
Whether any effort will be made 20
physically remove Austin no official
statement could be procured. There is
feeling around the capitol that such
an effort will be made some time this

LIVED BUT HALF AN HOUR
Needs Of The
Naval Ports
In Pacific

SAN FRANCISCO, September
1S-When the last assessment
on Oceanic stock, levied yester-
day, shall have been paid It will
be fully paid up; that is to say,
1t will have cost the holders or
those who have in succession
held It, just 800 a share.
The final assessment is $7.75 a
share and the stock is poorer
than it was on the day the last
previous assessment was levied.
In the language of the street, the
stock has not carried the assess
ment. On October 18th, when
the last assessment becomes de-
linquent, the stock, If it carry
the assessment, should go to
S21.25 but no one imagines it
will do so, for the reason that
the stock has no vitality and
cannot be galvanized into life
while there such heavy over
draft.
Whether the overdraft be
$780, 600 or 100000, the fact re-
mains that some new means of
raising money must now be
found, because no more assess
ments can be levied. The new
steamers that cost so much more
than 1t was intended they should
are not paying; freight offerings
are light, and the operating eX-
penses are heavy.

THE VOLCANO
IS SMOKING Up
ACTIVITY INCREASED LAST WE'D
NESDAY NIGHT-LATEST RE-
PORT BROUGHT BY MAUNA LOA.

The Volcano has Increased in activity.
News of the increase in fire was
brought this morning by Purser Will
lie Simerson of the steamer MaUna LOa
which arrived from Hawaii.
While the steamer was at Honuapo
this week, the smoke from the volcano
was so great that it was impossible to
see the port of Hilea which is only five
miles distant. Ordinarily the two ports
are within sight of each other, but the
smoke so clouded the atmosphere tnat
Captain Simerson the commander of the
Mauna Loa states that it was impos-
sible to see the usual distance.
Fire appeared in the volcano Sunday
night and on last Wednesday evening
the activity suddenly increased. Man
ager Waldron telephOned to Purser
Simerson yesterday morning, while the
Mauna Loa was at Kailua. The news
of the sudden increase in fire was Civ
en- the purser. Waldron said nothing of
any increase in the lava flow but it is
surmised that the lava has increased
and is rising in the pit of Halemaumau.
Further news of the outbreak will be
brought tomorrow by the steamer
Claudine which is due in the afternoon
from Hilo and way ports.

The Oceanic
Stock Is Now
Fully Paid

WASHINGTON, September 1S
Some inquiry has been made
into the needs of the projected
naval stations at Fuituila and
Guam. At the former place it
is considered that marine rail-
way would be desirable, one cap
able of hauling out ships of 1000
tons, together with shops cap
able of making such repairs as
might be necessary. There is
place on the beach easily. 1t is
estimated that the cost of con-
structing such a station would
be 100000.
If Amana, Guam, is to be
maintained as a cable station it
will be necessary to do some
work there also. The recon-
mendation to the Navy Depart
ment is in favor of a dry dock,
which might not be frequently
needed if at all. 1t is believed
that the dredging necessary pre-
sents no obstacle to the plan and
that a dock can be easily ex-
cavated. The dock, If built, will
be larger enough to take in the
heaviest vessels. 1t is probable
that estimates for these inv
provements will be included in
the next book of estimates
transmitted to Congress.
