Accidental Death.

The inquest over the body of wedart
Siemsen. whose body was found on Sat
urday in the harbor near the Oceanic
wharf, was held at the Police Station
at noon yesterday DR.. ]. S. B. Pratt
of the Board of Health testified that
his examination of the body showed
the young man had been drowned. It
was shown by other witnesses that
young Siemsen had undoubtedly mis-
taken port through which he crawied
for one which opened directly to the
coal scow on the port side of the ves-
sci. This port, however, opened at a
place where the scow was about twelve
feet distant, and he had dropped into
the water Being unable to swim he
was drowned. The jury returned a YER
diet in accordance with the above
testimony.

ALL TALK
OF FUSION
Mccarthy Outlines
Democratic
Status.
Princess Theresa Says
She Is Still in
Politics.
Always Liked the Democrats.
McCIanahan Thinks There
Can Be No Fusion.

Officially the Democratic party
knows nothing about fusion with the
Home Rulers" said Col. C. ]. Nc
Carthy, Democratic National Commit
teeman yesterday.
Individual members may be working
to induce Home Rulers to come into
the party, but the Democrats as a par
Rule party. If the Home Rulers wish
to join the party they are welcome to
do so, and we shall be glad to receive
them into the fold. The Home Rule
party has not sent any communication
to the Democratic committee relative to
fusion, so that whatever fusion may be
accomplished is not being done Off
cially.
Prior to the last election there was
a proposition for the fusion of the two
parties. When Delegate Wilcox re-
turned from Washington he brought a
letter signed by Senator Jones, Sena-
tor Blackburn and other Democratic
leaders favoring fusion of the two par
ties.
"a meeting was. held at that time
between leaders of both parties in
Waverly hall. and it was agreed that
fusion was wise. The matter was de-
layed, however, because of the absence
of KalauokaIani. He favored fusion
at that time, but straightway left for
Maui, and was reported to have talked
against it from the moment he landed.
He was gone for a month and in his
absence the executive committees of
both parties voted to amalgamate and
the matter was thought to be settled.
Kalauokalani returned, however, and
he was non-conmittal on the propo-
sition. Two Democrats were nominal
ted and endorsed by the Home Rulers,
but fusion was never actually effected.
1.-The proposition seems to be about
this. The Home Rulers think that they
elected their whole ticket in the last
election and were counted out by the
Republicans. Now they think they
can get the help of the supposed scala
wags in the Democratic party to get
the best of the scalawags in the Re-
publican party.
Eventually L believe the Home Rul-
ers must fuse with one or the other
of the great parties. 1t is only a
question of time when they must be-
come either Democrats or Republicans
AS a party we can't afford to make
ove-tures to them but individuals are,
working to bring about
fus.on. We have had blanks printed
and intend to form Democratic clubs
in every precinct in the Islands. Then |
if the Home Rulers wish to come in |
they are welcome. Wilcox was favor |
able to the plan and Caypless also |
worked to bring it about but some of |
the leaders in the party are opposed |
to it.
1.-The Democrats have done nothing /
as yet regarding the delegates to the |
National Convention. We are waiting |
now for the Democratic National Com
nittee to appoint the committeeman
,or Hawaii. There is some difference
IF opinion as to the choice for Presi-
