 After specifically denying any and every charge of fraud, unlawful com- bination, conspiracy or wrongful act in his connection with the affairs of the Bethlehem Steel and the United States Shipbuilddng companies, Mir Schwab details the history of his relations with the two concerns. He says that, after making a. contract for the purchase of the entire capital stock of the Bethle- hem company, he communicated with J. r. Morgan 6 Co, stating that he was willing to turn over the contract to the United States Steel corporation with out any profit whatever" Morgan & Co. assumed the contract, as syndicate managers, with authority to turn it over to the Steel corporation. If, llow- ever, the Morgan firm disposed of it to other parties, Mir. Schwab was to re- ceive the greater part of the profit. He

 However, MT. SehWab denies that the amendment to the shipbuilding com pany's charter gave him or his asso- ciates a voting power equivalent to S30,- 000,000 out of total of $55,000,oe9.
 Mir. Schwab says that he and his as- sociates had nothing to do with the withholding by the Bethlehem company of the dividend payments on the 300, 900 shares of it's stock, owned by the ship building company, for the purpose of Wreeking the latter concern. He adds that, although often requested so to do, the steel company has refused to declare such dividend"
 The defendant says: "I' deny that or the security and trust company, or the directors of the shipbuilding com- pany or of the steel company, or any associates Of mine, or the reorganiza- tion committee, or any of them, acted frandulently or in bad faith in the premises, or for the purpose of destroy ing and wrecking the property or the shipbuilding company, in the interests

THE YOUNG MEN OF TO-DAY.

The young men of to-day are too fin- fcky-too much given to self-analysis, too self-pampering. Their shoes and neckties cost more each year than did the entire wardrobe of their grandfath- CTS. They feel 8 sense Of degradation in small beginnings and plodding, and they wait for success ready made to come to them. There is not young man in the country who would initiate Ben Franklin, and march through the streets munching a loaf of bread while looking for employment. He dares nor, indeed, because society has become also finicky, and he would be arrested as tramp. The young man of to-day wants capital. Trusts and combines and cor porations distress him. He cannot be president of bank or judge of a court the first week he is from school, and he feels like the famous Eli Pussley, that he has "no chance. e.''--Philadelphia In- quirer.

sion of the marriage Of Miss Louise

er, and Mr.. Arthur B. Baskin, one
of Bishopville's worthy sons. The
evening was typical of love, JOY and

to the intensity of feeling and solem-
nifty of che occasion. The church could
not hold the large assembly of friends
and kindred gathered to witness the
interesting ceremony. Messrs. Julian
G. Rogers and j. G. Baskin we're ush-
ers and they handled the large crowd
remarkably we'll. At $40 the strains

Cause Of Lockjaw.

lockjaw, or tetanus, is caused by a ba-
cillus or germ which exists plentifully in
street dirt. 1t is inactive so long as ex-
posed to the air, but when carried beneath
the skin, as in the wounds caused by per.
cussion caps or by rusty nails, and when
the air is excluded the germ is reused to
activity and produces the most virulent
poison known. These germs may be de.
stroyed and all danger of lockjaw avoided
by applying Cbamberlain's Pain Balm
freely as soon as the injury is received
Pain Balm is an antiseptic and causes cuts
bruises and like injuries to heal without
maturation and in one third the time re-
quired by the usual treatment. It is fol
sale by China's Drug Store.

RAYMOND WILL
BRING TOURISTS

The Raymond & Whitcomb Company
of Boston, New York, Philadelphia,
Pittsburg, Chicago, Los Angeles and
San Francisco has arranged for a tour
under the personal escort of one of the
agents of the corporation, to these Is
lands, which promises to bring, during
the month of April, a large number of
visitors.
The itinerary of the trip calls for the
departure of the party from San Fran
cisco in the steamer Alameda March
u, which would mean arrival here on
the following Friday. From March 81
to April % the tourists will spend in
this city, making headquarters either
at the Royal Hawaiian or the Young
Hotel, there being provision during the
month for a four days trip to the vol
cano and Hilo. There is no practical
Limitation on the trip, however, for
the return tickets are good for four
months, and it is more than probable,
taking the experiences of former tours,
that many persons will avail them
selves of the opportunity to make
more extended stay.
In advertising the tour the agents
have issued a most striking little book,
which is we'll worth reading for it con-
tains much general information about
the Islands as a whole, and also some
excellent illustrations. The various
points of interest are described at
length and the impression made by the
little book is most pleasing.

NEW KIND OF
KAKAAKO CLUB

Deputy Sheriff Chillingworth and
officer McDuffie went to Kakaako yes
terday about noon to raid a Chinese
found about a score of Chinese in the
place and sent them to the station. In
the meantime, Chillingworth saw .
sign 1t was lettered board over the
doorway of place announcing that
the "Kapiolani Athletic Club had its
quarters there. The deputy sheriff
belongs to almost every athletic club in
town, and this was a new one to him.
He decided to investigate. Inside he
found several tables with newspapers
lying upon them, cards, cribbage
boards and various other mediums of
amusement, and sort of a saloon bar.
He asked the proprietor, Kiaihale,
what kind of place it was.
"'This fKapiolani Athletic Club;
lots of members" replied Kiaihale.
Members come here all time and play
and"
well, what's in this box asked
Chillingworth, raising the lid of an ice
box, in which he found bottled beer
and other liquids. In a box near by
we're a dozen bottles of gin.
ooh, that's beer for the members
we only give that to members"
Didn't you sell beer to the men at
the iron works and on the dredger this
morning-better tell the truth now"
inquired the Deputy.
We'll, may be I did, but you 'scuse
me this time, eh?'
The names of the men were obtained
by Officer McDufie. and charge pre-
ferred against Kiaihale the liquor be-
ing brought as evidence to the police
station.
''Kiaihale" means "man-who- watch
es-the-house"
