The majority report is as follows:
TO the Honorable George ID. Gear.
Second Judge of the First Circuit
Court Territory of Hawaii, presiding
Your above named Grand Jury hav-
ing heretofore, to wit: on the 18th day
OF November, 1903, been duly charged
by your Honor to investigate election
FRAUDS alleged to have been committed
within the island of Oahu and the
jurisdiction of this Honorable Court,
at and concerning the Special Election
of Officers Tor the County of Oahu, on
the Bird day of November last; and hav-
ing been given in hand a communica-
ton of {. w. Ashford, Esq, to your
Honor, containing particular charges
of election frauds and misdemeanors,
retired, and in accordance with said
charge, proceeded with the considera-
ton thereof.
The Grand Jury first considered par
ticularly the charges as contained in
the communication of Mr.. Ashford.
And summoned before it the witnesses
whose names were contained therein as
well as others who We're suggested dur
ing the course of their examination.
From the evidence adduced by means
of said witnesses we are enabled to re-
port:
Il. ImperSonation of Voters.
Two charges of alleged impersona-
tion of voters, and resulting illegal
voting We're found to be unfounded in
fact, and the evidence of the witnesses
testifying in relation thereto mere
hearsay. Further, in two cases it was
found that illegal voting had been in
dulged in, but the identity of the Of
tenders was conflicting and seems to
hA haa1 done only "a aar fi11
animation by the inspectors present at
the time of the commission of the al
legged offense, and mala fides on the
part of said inspectors does not appear.
Evidence before this Grand Jury
discloses the fact that at several poll
ing places attempts We're made by per-
sons to this Grand Jury unknown to
vote in the name of other persons liv-
ing but absent from the Territory, and
in all instances the person 50 attempt
ing to vote was Immediately evicted
from the booth by the inspector
end. Illegal Rejection of Bal
lots by Making Thereon Marks of Iden-
tification with linked Fingers.
Your Grand Jury particularly in
vestigated the charge VI improper re-
lection of ballots by means of making
identification marks thereon with ink
eu HnsefS Dy the inspector OF election
counting the ballot. And we are en-
abled to report that the ink marks and
marks of identification by means of ink
appeared to be the result of careless
ness of voters at the time of marking
the ballots. In many instances ink
marks were the result of soiied shelves
in voting compartments. While many
ballots were properly rejected through
reproduction of the ink marks made by
the voter in the folding of the ballot
And in view of the above facts this
Grand Jury strongly suggests that ink
stamps be eliminated from future cleo
tions. Your Grand Jury made an ex-
animation of ballots rejected for the
reason of ink marks and Identification
marks contained thereon i'm the 9TH
Precinct of the 5th District, and we
find that the proportion of Home Rule
and Republican ballots rejected bears

Treaty Negotiations.

Washington. May 22.-Treaty negotia- tions between the United States and Chin- ese commerce commissions are again nov ing forward and the prospect is brighten ing for a successful issue Practically only two points of importance remain to be agreed upon, but one of these Is the provi- sion for the opening of three new ports in Manchuria This has been the most seri- ous obstacle to the consummation of the treaty. It is believed here that there will be compromise on this account and the United States will secure one instead of three ports, the choice falling on Tatung Kou at the mouth of the Yalu river.
