ACCUSED MEN
ENTER PLEAS
JUDGE ROBINSON AND ASSIST
ANT ATTORNEY GENERAL E. c.
PETERS HAVE BUSY DAY.

With four languages going at the
same time and heavy wagons rumbling
by on the street outside, Judge Robin
sons court this morning gave fair
active operation. Deputy Attorney
General Peters had his hands full with
no less than twenty-three arraignments
to be put through and he was forced
to the expedient of taking two or three
at a time i'm different processes. This
was arranged by his reading over the
Indictment of each case i'm English,
passing it over to an interpreter for
translation to the accused and then
taking uD another in the same way.
At one stage of the game there were
Hawaiian, japanese Chinese and Por-
tuguese interpreters all talking at once
i'm attempts to make clear to different
accused persons just what the defunct
Grand Jury thought of them and mean
while Deputy Attorney General Peters
and Judge Robinson were exchanging
remarks in the purest of English.
| 1t was busy day this last one of the
memorable September term for be-
4
morning the police had rounded up all
of those for whom the thoughtful grand
| jury had PREPARED New Years gifts i'm
the form of indictments. Each case
was called and every one was for
mally put over to the January term.
| The two most serious cases were
those of the japanese Takada and Ko-
seki, both accused of murder i'm the
! first degree. Both entered pleas of
not guilty. James +. Fullerton was
up on three different indictments
charging him with malicious injury,
gross cheat and with assault and bat
terry, all of the charges arising out of
the Bertelman foreclosure proceedings
which have already been aired i'm court
He was represented by j. j. Dunno who
waived the reading of the indictment
and entered pleas of not guilty, or re-
served their pleading
The other cases We're: All Lum. run
ming che IA game; Daniel Correa,
selling liquor without a license; Fushi-
mura, bribing AN executive oficer
Wishimura, bribing an executive Off
Ger; Chang All, Chick Lung and Ching
CHUNG zee, maintaining a lottery, two
Indictments; Nakookoo libel: Umauma
libel; iamoto assault with intent; and
j. W. Redhouse, larceny in the second
degree.
Pedro Fereira, a young lad, pleaded
guilty to charge of stealing watch
and was allowed to go on suspended
sentence. Palikapu pleaded guilty to
an infraction Of the liquor law and
Hanakealoha to a charge of burglary
in the second degree, both being re-
manded for sentence to the next term.

WEARY OF THE
LIFE OF ZOIN
MRS. GLADSTONE DOWIE HAS
LEFT HER HUSBAND AND RE-
TURNED TO HER HOME.

LONDON, December 19.-"Mrs. Glad
stone Dowie, formerly Ruth Hofer, has
returned to her home on the shores of
Lake Constance" says the Geneva
correspondent of the Daily Mail. After
five months stay in Zion City she dis
covered that it was her money, and
not herself, Gladstone DOwie was in
love with.
Her married life was unhappy. She
found herself, instead of being a wife,
i'm reality an upper servant. Neglect
and continual hypocrisy opened her
eyes to the true state of affairs, and
Dowie's posing as restored Elijah
was the last straw
she determined to quit Zion City
at all costs. The Dowies at first re-
fused to let her go, but she threat
ened to run away, and finally they
gave i'm. Her mother sent her money
and, disillusoned, broken i'm health
and spirit, she arrived at her old home
the other day. Her brothers who are
rich manufacturers i'm Geneva, are de-
lighted to see their sister out of the
clutches of the DOwies.
Miss Hofer was considered the rich
est, most beautiful girl i'm her coun-
try, her fortune being estimated at SIS
100000. II was said at the time of the
marriage that this whole sum was to
be turned over to the Zion treasury"

A YEARS WORK
COMPLETE
WITH DECEMBER NUMBER THE
HAWAIIAN FORESTER AND AG-
RICULTURIsT ENDS A VOLUME.

The Hawaiian Forester & Agricul-
turists for December completing the
first annual volume of what has be-
come a very valuable publication has
just been issued With the beginning
of Volume Two l.. G. Blackman be-
comes the editor. The change is thus
announced i'm the present number:
with this number Mr.. Giffard re-
tires from the duties of honorary edi.
tor of The Forester and Agriculturist,
not that he is tired of the effort to es-
tabish such a magazine in Hawaii, but
solely on account of the pressure of
other business. BY a resolution of the
Board of Agriculture and Forestry .he
honorary editorship will, with the jan
uary number. be taken by l.. G.
Blackman of the Bishop Museum staff,
who has been one of the valued con-
tributors of the magazine in its first
year. Mr.. Giffard, to whom the work
has been most congenial, will continue
his interest in the periodical as a mem
Der of the Board of Agriculture and
Forestry and, under direction of that
body, still maintain a general super
vision of the monthly contents. In re-
/ firing from the more active conduct of
the magazine, Mr.. Giffard would take
the opportunity of sincerely thanking
the able contributors and the generous
! patrons of it's initial year, cordially be-
| speaking at the same time a cOntinu-
ance of all favors to his talented sue
cessOr."
Concerning the years work just ac-
complished, the Forester and Agricul-
turist says
With this number, The Hawaiian
Forester and Agricuturist completes
the first year of it's existence. Started
in January last as an adjunct or sup
plement to The Planters Monthly
through the kind permission of the Ha-
waiian Sugar Planters Association al
the request of Mr.. Giffard as a COM
mittee of one appointed by the Board
of Agriculture and Forestry-after fom
months of this guardianship the maya
zinebecame an Independent publication
AS it's title page indicates the .neriod-
zeal is an organ of the Territorial Ag-
riCultural Department and until now
it has been conducted through the hon.
orary editorship of a member of the
board, the one who first preached the
desirablity of having such a medium
OF communication with the public
Though under the direction of the
board the Forester and Agriculturist
has never been a dry record of thai
body, either as to it's proceedings or its
papers. 1t has dealt concretely will
the interests of forestry, entomology
and agriculture, in the manner that t.
it's director seemed best adapted t
prove helpful to the cultivatOrs of thu
soil. Besides keeping its readers il
touch with the business of the board
the magazine has paid close attention
to the doings of such unofficial bodies
as the Hilo Agricultural Society an,
the Farmers Institute.

REFINED SUGAR
IN FRISCO
TROUBLES OF PACIFIC TRAFFIC
AND COMMERCIAL ASSOCIATION
AND HAWAIIAN REFINED SUGAR

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 23.-The four
large iobbing firms that have with
drawn from the compact with the Pa
cific and Commercial Association and
the local sugar refineries have cut the
price of granulated sugar to SO cents
per pound, which is a of a cent below
the net price charged by the refineries
in this market. The reduction amounts
to per cent and is therefore a large
one on sugar, which is sold on the
smallest margin of profit.
1t was admitted today by representa-
tives of the four firms that there is no
profit in selling sugar at the reduced
prices, but that the real reason for the
change was to checkmate certain MEM
bers who are still in the compact with
the trust from underselling the others,
a practice which, it is stated, was a
| leading cause of the recent troubles.
Haas Brothers, Sussman, Wormser &
| Co., Tillman & Bendell and Levin &
Meyer are still the only seceders from
the association, but others are expect
| ed to follow.
The local refiners as yet have not
met the reduction of "A of a cent per
pound, and in answer to inquiries made
this afternoon, Manager Loveland of
the association stated that all their
prices remain without change.
The firms who have withdrawn from
the compact are counting upon the re-
ceipt of a large cargo of refined sugar
from the new refinery of the Honolulu
Plantation Company on the Island of
Oahu, early next month, to enable them
to supply their customers at the cut
rate.
The war is a welcome one to consum-
ers of sugar and there is now an open
market for that commodity for the first
time in several years.
H. d. Loveland, who was selected to
manage the association, at a salary, il
is said, of $4,000 year, and the men,
bers of the forty-eight firms compris-
ing the organization, scout the idea
that they have acted in anything but
a legal manner. The situation was
stated in this manner by w. b. Well.
man, president of Wellman, Peck 6
Co.:
Sugar has always been leading
staple for the sale of other goods
Prices have therefore been cut on su.
gar more than anything else, and many
of the jobbers decided to unite to up.
hold the market. This organization was
caused by competition, and self-inter
est has caused some of the members t.
withdraw. Nothing has been done thai
is not legitimate. When some of tbs
firms found that they could do better
by buying in Honolulu than by remain
ing with the association they with
: drew, as they had a perfect right t.
do. 1t was their right to Withdraw
just as it was their right to join the or
ganization. 1t is all prompted by com
: petition.
THE firm of Wellman, Peck & Co
? has not yet withdrawn. We are wait
ing to see what the refneries will do
We will know better what course t
pursue within a few days But, res
E assured, the Pacific Traffic and Com
= mercial Company is by no means, il

FOR RELIEF At
MIDWAY ISLANDS
II. MACKAY REQUESTS
ENACTMENT OF LEGISLATION
FOR HARBOR IMPROVEMENTS.

WASHINGTON, December 17.-Sec-
cretary Morton has received letter
from Clarence II. Mackay, president
of the Commercial Pacific Gable Com
pany urging the enactment of legis-
lation for the relief of conditions in
the Midway islands. Mr.. Mackay
says:
"A further twelve months expert
ence very forcibly impresses upon us
the dangers and difficulties apper-
tanning to the efficient maintenance
of the cable station, under adverse con-
ditions which at present prevail at
Midway. Reefs which surround the
low sand islands. scarcely show above
the surface of the water, and i'm the
absence of lighthouse and buoys offer
very grave dangers to vessels APP
preaching the entrance of the so-called
harbor. A vessel chartered by us to
carry food and supplies to Midway,
was, owing to the absence of a light
house, wrecked and became total
| loss at Midway on October %, 1903 We
/ have experienced the greatest difficulty
| i'm getting steamers to call there the
| channel i'm Welles harbor being so
shallow and tortuous they dare not
enter. and consequently have to an
Choir three or four miles from the ISL
and, and put everything ashore in
boats.
The erection at Midway of build,
ings and plant, of the most modern
character, at cost of little short OF
100000, was begun early this yeal
and has almost been completed"

tai was but $500, and in 1880 but
10000. Then came the election of 1884
when Blaine was beaten by Cleve-
land. The Prohibition vote jumped
suddenly to $4,000, due in great
part to the fact that many Republi-
cans Of Prohibition leanings rejected
their party candidate and, being un-
willing to vote for a Democrat, felt
themselves free to vote for st. John
on the moral issue Of drink. From
this the party vote increased to 246,-
900 in 1888 and 264,OOO in 1892, but
with the fierce fight over sound money
in 1896 the vote fell to $4,000. 1t
rose to 100000 in 1900 #:
If the party dominates General
Miles this week, as appears probable,
it may reasonably expect larger
vote than ever before. Indeed, if the
contest between Roosevelt and his
Democratic opponent does not devel-
op any holly contested issue, it may
even be that the Prohibition vote will
approximate very closely to the Pro
hibition sentiment of the country.

GOOD FEATURE.
Is the Barnum and Bailey Pa.


AS a mere indication of the greater
glories to follow the Barnum & Bailey
show day in this city there will be in
augurated by presentation upon the
streets the most magnificent pagean-
try ever seen not only here but every
where in America. There have been
street parades and street parades Civ
en- by shows beyond the recollection
Of all save the oldest men in the COM
munity, but it is safe to assume,
from reports already received regard
ing the magnifcence Of the parade of
the Barnum & Bailey show, that
nothing like it, either in extent or in
excellence, has ever been seen BEFORE
AS a matter of fact, it is claimed by
the management of the show itself
that it's chariots alone represent an
expenditure greater than that Of all
the other street parades ever seen be-
fore with a circus in this country. In
any event there is every inducement
for all who live in this city and the
surrounding country to be upon the
streets early on Barnum & Bailey
show day, and they can come with
the certainty Of being treated to a
spectacle surprising in splendor any
thing that they have ever seen. The
day of the Barnum & Bailey show day
here is July s.
