GROCERY ON FIRE

Yesterday Morning.
NO THEORY AS TO THE ORIGIN
Dwelling Also ScOrched-TOtaI Loss
About $1,000, Covered by
Insurance.

Fire within a block OF the Central
engine house did damage to the ex-
tent of about $1,000 early Yesterday
morning, the property affected being
that belonging to the Peter Stelck
estate at 6O9 and GIL Seventeenth
street.
The first number named above is
occupied by the family of Roger
Price as a dwelling and the other is
occupied by the grocery store of ia
cob Silverman. The two buildings
are connected by n one-story hallway
and it was in this that the fire broke
out about 1 o'clock in the morning.
Mr.. Silverman, who rooms near.
first saw the blaze and he ran to the
engine house and notified the depart
ment. BY the time the fire laddies
could get on the scene the flames
were making rapid Roadway. After
water was turned on, however, it re-
CURED but a short time to end the
danger.
Origin q Mystery.
No one appears to have any theory
to advance as to the origin of the
fire. The place i'm which it started
was formerly used by Mr.. Silverman
to store oils, but lately he has kept
them in the rear of the store If the
flames had reached the stock is it
probable the place could not have
been saved.
The damage to the grocery stock is
estimated at $780, mostly due to
smoke. with So 500 insurance. Mr..
Price suffered $50 loss also from
smoke, fully insured The loss on
buildings was about $500 and there is
$3.50 insurance

All Did Well

All the DonneHyites did themselves
credit. O'Leary caught a pretty
game. Graham covered second as
though he had always played there
and Donnelly devoured everything
that was Knocked at him. For the
new men Gray and Rebsamen each ac-
cepted a chance in the outfield. Siehr
held down the third sack to the salts
faction of all, while Johnny Green at
short showed ability to cover lots of
.gro.ulld. and Dickey ornamented z6SSt..
I Rock Island got as many in the
first inning as Davenport did all day.
Johnny Green cody waited for four
and attempting to purloin second on a
tumble by Ransome, he was caught;
Donnelly took a fair smack at the
leather, but Sullivan was there and
he was out. Then with two gone the
fun commenced. Graham hammered
out two with his blacksmith arm and
Hughes, for the fear Rebsamen would
do the same, gave him a pass. Gray
was there with the stick and brought
in the first one. Dickey failed to get
out of the way of crooked one and
got it in the Stats. Siehr rewarding
him for his punishment by bringing
him home with a drive to deep CEN

out and O'Leary was that one.

No hard feeling on account of those
three errors.
BY looking at the Davenport uni
forms one could tell where the play
ers came from.
The locals required very little as
sistance in giving the visitors their

morrow. In the meantime the team
will be in charge of Ed Smith.
There is possibility of a game with
the Peoria Western league team here

city anyway it could be very easily
arranged for them to stop here long

signing of Clyde Williams, the noted
football and baseball player of the
Iowa State University teams. Will

he was captain of the university foot

The locals took another taste of
it in the second. Smith stepped to
the rubber and pasted the first one
handed up for three sacks and treked
home on safe one by Green. Don
nelley neatly sacrificed and Graham
flew to the outfield. Rebsamen got
a. hit and Gray duplicated the per-

forced Gray on a fielder's choice. We
were done with Hughes after the next
inning, but there was enough to last.
Davenport had three on bases in the

everybody took away something to

week.
Donnelly's Youngsters showed up
exceedingly well, considering the
practice they have had, and the way
they welded the stick early in the
game was a caution. Ed Hughes,

Smith Had Them Guessing
For the locals Ed Smith did the box
work for the first four innings and
had them guessing all the time. He
had good control and showed up as
well as he might be expected to do
in the middle of the season. Then
Clark came in. Clark is a southpaw
from Iroquois, Ohio. He has a woody,
auburn head, a fancy delivery and
plenty of speed, but he showed evil
dence of not being in good form.
He gave two men bases in the first
inning he was in and in the second
he gave two more with a couple of
hits and an error of his own that
cost three scores.

wiry and has evidently been there
before. He showed good control and
by his steadiness kept the Davenport
ers from getting dangerously close on
the score board.

abacus IL used. These computations
consist " additions and subtractiohs.
one may calls OF the figures, and three
men, each with an abacus. makes the
required computation almost as fast
as the figures can be read to him. Each
is an expert with the Japanese comput-
ing board or abacus. They all make
the same calculat lions separately In
any two or all three agree, which they
almost invariably do, this result is
taken as the correct one. The rapidty
with which these computations can be
made on the abacus is surprising to one
not familiar with their use.
AS part of the system OF trusteeship
under which these claims have been
handled, a record is kept Of all deaths
among the claimants or departures
from the islands, either to Japan or
to the mainland. All persons taking
assignments of these claims are ex-l
pected to notify the trustee, and where
garnishment suits have been COM
menced, these are noted in connection
with each claim. In some cases
claimants have written the trustees
asking that the amounts due them be
sent to Japan to designaed relatives
there. In some cases the trustees de-
claration of trust has been lost, and
nsome instances where lost has been
found and attempted to be improperly
used by the finder. There have been
double assignments, or assignments to
two different people, and these where
known are noted in connection with
each claim. So that the record the
trustee has is most complete one.
In the great many instances claim
ants have notified the consul instead
of the trustees of matters in connec-
ton with tse claims. In all these cases
the consul has turned over the noti-
fication to the trustee.
These records show that of the sew
eral hundred claimants, forty have re-
turned to Japan and four have gone to
the mainland. Seven are dead, 1876
have been assigned to other than Jap
anese, and there have been found two
double assignments. 1t is expected
that within very short time after the
last payment shall have been made by
Treasury Agent McLennan, the trus-
tee Will be able to pay out to the indi-
vidual claimants the amounts due them
and the whole matter so far as the
Japanese claimants are concerned will
be closed.
But it is because the Japanese claims
have been handled in bulk that scarce
ly any japanese have been seen in the
line of claimants at the First National
Bank.

THE JAPANESE
FIRE CLAIMS
THOROUGH GOING AND sYsTEMA-
TIC METHOD IN WHICH THEY
ARE BEING HANDLED.

Up on the second story of the Ozaki
building on King street, near Nuuanu
stream the abacus is being used in
figuring out the percentages and divi-a
sions of the Japanese fire claims. The
japanese fire claims are practically all
held in trust by Mr.. Ozaki, and a very
complete and somewhat elaborate sys-
TEN of records and accounts is being
kept in connection with the trust. In
the first place the several hundred
japanese claimants all put their claims
in the hands of Ozaki in trust for them
selves. To each one he issued de-
claration of trust showing the number
and amount of the claim and the claim
ants name. This declaration of trust
being countersigned or certified by the
japanese Consul Mkt Saito.
In pursuance of this trust the ten
per cent paid by the Territory some
time ago was collected by Mr.. Ozaki
and deposited in the Yokohama Spe-
Gle bank. OF the million dollars APP
propriated by the United States, as
fast as the percentage of this is paid it
also is deposited in the Yokohama Sper
Gle bank. An agreement has been
which the proportion of the awards 10
be paid in fire claims bonds is to be
taken at ninety per cent of the face
value, the bonds eventually going to
Wells Fargo & Companys bank which
is disposirg of them in the eastern
market.
When all these payments are made,
the ten per cent from the territory the
million from the United States and
the bond portion, amounting TO about
$4,000 in bonds. the trustee will ap.
portion the total amount due to each
claimant, issue a trustees certificate
for it, which will be exchanged for a
check On the bank on proper surrender
In this way a complete record of every
transaction is kept
What is being done now is to separate
each claim into the three items of the
first ten per cent payunt, the million
dollar payment and the bond payment
