POPE LEO XIII.

past the armed guard and into the quiet
street During the remainder of the
day but few sought the vatican. Then
CAM the night bulletiI. and for larg-
er crowds than had gathered during the
day wandered TO the vatican in the cool
OF the evening. The Swiss guards had
received Instructions only to admit a
small portion of the inQuirerS prior to
the printing Of the bulletin, and even
this restricted number almost flied the
court of the vatican, while many wait
ed in suspense on the steps Of st. Pc
ters.
Once today the doctors succeeded in
overcoming Pope Leo iron will. He
had firmly decided to receive three car
dinals.
After this morn's operation he re-
quested the doctors to leave the room,
saying he wished to see the cardinals.
The doctors gently but firmly protested,
declaring that he was still too weak.
But I shall not be fatigued, as I feel
much better this morning" argued the
pope. But the doctors insisted, urging
that it was for his own good, and Pope
Leo finally yielded, although express
ing the hope hat he might see some OF
the cardinals later.

NO BAD FAITH
OF THE MILITARY

After all the noise made about the
Misrepresentation by Chief Justice Frear
Of correspondence between General
Macarthur and himself, in the case of
the three soldiers who were not re-
turned to be tried or discharged under
Indictment for burglary, it transpired
yesterday that Chief Justice Frear has
not had the correspondence in his
hands since the conference on the mat
ter in the Governors office before the
present Circuit Court term opened.
1t appears also that the correspond
ence shows that General Macarthur,
in a very kind and polite letter. offered
to return the soldiers if the Territory
insisted. Chief Justice Frear, as the
complaining witness, had previously
expressed a willingness to withdraw
the prosecution providing the Circuit
Court and the Attorney General con-
scented.
In conference between the Chief
Justice, Attorney General Andrews and
Judge De Bolt-Judges Gear and Rob-
inson being out of town-it was de-
ciueu tndt, III view OF General Mac
Arthur's letter, it would seem like
spite work TO bring the men here
merely to have their cases nolle
pressed. Chief Justice Frear then re-
piled to General Macarthur, stating
that the matter would be adjusted
without requiring the presence of the
defendants.
The missing correspondence is there
lore important as showing that the
Federal military authorities committed
no breach of word or faith in the mat
ter. As to the letters, they must have
become buried among loose papers
upon the executive council table.

To Deepen Channel.

Tenders for dredging the first sec
ton of Honolulu harbor channel, 1900
ceived at the Department of Public
Works up to noon of October 81. The
entire channel is to be deepened by
sections to "a feet and widened to 240
feet. Originally, about thirteen years
ago, it was dredged to a depth of 80
feet and width of 200 feet, but since
then it has silted up considerably.
With the increased dimensions now to
be made, the largest ocean vessel may
enter with perfect safety. Superin-
tendent Cooper adopted the scheme of
having the dredging done in sections to
fit the conditions of the treasury.

JApAN's GAME OF EXPANSION.

The impression brought back from the
Far East by Col. George w. Macfarlane
that Japan was playing for Korea and
would willingly leave Manchuria to
Russia if given way and room in the
Hermit Kingdom, is borne out by such
news from the Russo-Japanese negotia-
ton as the cable is permitted to col
lect.
The other day it was stated that
Japan would send two regiments to
Korea to protect her interests an
item which was followed by the official
statement from ST. Petersburg that
Russia docs not consider the japanese
dispatch of troops an unfriendly act"
All this seems highly significant in
view of yesterdays news that a Jap
anese fleet had arrived at one of the
Korean ports, and that negotiations are
in progress which win not only remove
the objections of Japan to Russia's con-
tinued presence in Manchuria '.but will
concede japan a foothold in Korea
No one need be surprised to hear that
the Japanese fleet has taken formal
possession of the Hermit Kingdom and
that Russia has served due notice
on the powers, copying Great Britain's
action in regard to Egypt, that she will
occupy Manchuria indefinitely.

Death of Mrs. Dasky.

Charles 9. Desky received a cable
gram yesterday morning announcing
the death of his wife in Oakland, Cali
fornia. Although she had been an
invalid for many years, the sad news
was unexpected. By last mail Mr..
Desky received letter from his daugh-
ter Flossie. saying she thought her
mother was somewhat better. Owing
to poor health. Mrs. Desky had lived
in California most of the time since
1898. Her health broke down through
nervous prostration over the death of
her son Harry. aged seven years, in
Germany in 1885, Mr.. and Mrs. Desky
came to Honolulu in 1894, since when
Mr.. Desky has been closely identified
with the progress of the city. Hes and

MORE SEA ACCOMMODATIONS.

The news that the steamers Gaelic.
Doric and Coptic are to be taken off
the trans-Pacific run and replaced by
liners flying the American flag is high
ly satisfactory to Honolulu.
Not that there is anything the matter
with the White Star steamers in the
speed and comforts they provide, but
that, as British vessels, they are sub
tracted from the sum of our ferry facil-
tiles between here and San Francisco.
They cannot do business between two
American ports.
With American liners instead there
will not only be travel room enough for
Honolulu travellers but for tourists.
Just now the best accommodations are
crowded. More steamers are needed for
our convenience and it is gratifying to
know that we are going to get them.

A. c. GEHR UPSET
OVER AN OLD BOX

While the members of the Board of
ernors outer office, until a stranger
calling on the Governor in the inner
office should retire, on Monday after
noon, there was a scene that ended
with smile all around when the chief
actor had departed. Besides the mem
bers of the board there were present
several visitors to the meeting, For
ester w. l.. Hall of Washington and
President Griffiths of Oahu College.
Suddenly A. G.. Gehr strobe in and
advanced to Private Secretary Hawes's
table. There he turned to face the
company and said something in dra-
matte tones about Superintendent Fl.
b. Cooper's having refused to give him
a statement regarding the condition
of a certain box of maps and papers.
Mr.. Cooper replied that the box was
there, meaning his office downstairs,
and Mr. Gehr was welcome to it when
ever he chose.
II refuse to receipt for the box in
its present condition." Mr.. Gehr de-
clared.
You can do as you please about
that" Mr.. Cooper rejoined "The box
is in the same condition as found it,"
mot exactly in the same condition"
Mr.. Gehr said. when it was left in
the Public Works department it was
locked and sealed
1t appears the box contained Kohala
ditch documents and was left with the
Governor by Mr.. Gehr two years ago.
When applied for on Monday, it was
found among other things stored in a
basement closet. Mr.. Gehr, so far as
known, has made no complaint that
anything is missing from the recep-
tacle.

sol. Berl,ner, consul.

Sol Berliner, the present American
Consul at Teneriffe, Canary Islands,
was a political pupil of New York's
sWicked" Gibbs, and his appointment
is the result of the ex-Senator's pro-
pensity for perpetrating practical
jokes.
In his usual serious way he asked Mr..
Berliner whether he would prefer to go
Islands. Mr. Berliner, who is musical,
promptly said he would like the home
of the song birds.
A petition was drawn up by Mr.,
Gibbs with much flourish, recounting in
sophomorical style the eminent fitness
of Mr.. Solomon Berliner to fill the Office
of Consul at Teneriffe. All the big Re-
publicans from Senator Plat down
signed it, some adding: "Sol is all right
if the island can support him."
Mr.. Berliner was duly appointed and
when Mr.. Gibbs and his friends in
formed him of the great honor con-
ferred, the new Consul asked what was
the amount of the annual salary oil
fees.
About $780, came in chorus from
the joker's friends.
The new Consul gasped, and finally
said he would accept and do his duty
It should be added that Mr. Berline
has made an efficient Consul, has in
creased the trade between this country
and the islands and receives a goot
salary.-New York Sun.

1t is a pity that the Territory feels
obliged to spend large sums in dredg-
ing harbors which are under the juris-
diction and in the care of the United
States. We believe that claim should
be made upon Congress for every cent
so laid out. Otherwise, seeing Ha-
waits willingness to relieve the Fed
eral government of a burden, Congress
is not likely to put an Hawaiian item
into the River and Harbor bill for long
years to come.

The National Women's Temperance
Union has begun a campaign for the
expulsion of Reed Smoot from the Uni
ted States Senate. The grounds hith-
erto stated are that Smoot belongs to
the Mormon church, though it ought
to be apparent to the w. c. T. u, that
his right to belong to it or to any other
religious body is not restrained by law
and that such membership cannot be
as a reason for depriving him
of civil rights. Of course if the W.
C. T. u. could prove Smoot polyga-
mist he would have to go the way of

but one wife and is, in all domestic

Ringtail monkeys, one of the

the smaller animals, are caught in
an interesting way. \ c%ocoanut
is split in two and IL banana with
a piece of wood running through it
placed lengthwise through the
nut, the two halves of which are
drawn together by wire. Then a
hole is cut large enough for the
monkeys paw to enter. The mon
key spies the tempting nut from
his tree. He hops down, looks it
1t over, sees the hole and smells
the banana inside. He is fond of
bananas. Putting his paw in he
grasps it. but the wood prevents
1T from coming out. Then the
catchers appear and the monkey
runs for a tree. But he cannot
climb because of the cocoanut on
his paw, and he will not let 90 of
that, so he is captured, paving
wildly on the tree trunk.
