MINOR LAND OFFICE FEES
MAY HAVE BEEN TAKEN

1t is said that the exact amount of
the alleged shortages in the office of
the Land Commissioner may never be
known, owing to the non-entry of
minor fees for copying of records,
deeds and leases.
All leaseholders are being commune
Gated with and shown the amounts out
standing against them with a request
to present back receipts should they
not agree with the territorial book
keeping. This is a lengthy way of
getting at the heart of the matter but
a practical one, and until it is con-
cluded neither the auditor nor Com
missioner Pratt can state what the
defalcation may or may not be.
Plans are being laid to provide for
a check against the possibilities OF
receiving minor fees without entry,
but no satisfactory scheme has yet
been evolved.

WAHIAWA OUTING OF
ASSOCIATION PEOPLE

A party of members of the Y. w c.
jolly party which went to the Asso
citation resort at Wahiawa on Satur-
day. The party, numbering a score of
young people, left town at p. m. in
a four-horse tallyho, reaching Wahi-
ava at p. m. Long before the destin-
alton was reached the party was in
evidence, caused by a multitude of
musical instruments and twenty lusty
pairs of lungs. The party remained
over until Monday, during which time
the bracing mountain air. the bathing
pool, tramps into neighboring hills and
gulches horseback riding and singing
on the porches of the cosy cottages,
were INDUCED in.
An out-of-door picnic was enjoyed in
the upper end of the tract on Monday.
The Wahiawa residents were invited
to song service held on Sunday even

This forms one of the pleasant features

moonlight on Monday evening was a
pleasant finale to a very delightful
outing.

IN ST., LOUIS
lie Complains of Graft
in Both Exposition
and City.

ST. LOUIS, MAY 22.-Graft is ram
pant in this city and particularly on
the Exposition grounds. Public spirit
ed men of st. Louis fear that the greed
of the people will injure the fair to a
great extent. AS it stands now, visit
ors do not tarry long, but take in the
fair without loss of time and then de-
part, glad to get out of the clutches of
the wolves of ST. Louis.
Almost highway robbery is commit
ted at the Exposition grounds You
must pay for everything. A glass of
water can only be secured by con-
tributing coin of the realm. Outside
of the exhibition buildings everything
is a concession. The exposition man
agement receives % per cent of the
receipts of all concessions. so the man.
for high charges. The visitors COM
plain loudly, but no attention is paid
to protests. The robbery goes on with
out fear or hindrance.
Even the heads of the exposition are
now being charged with willful e:S-
travagance-to use a mild term. A
number of them are and have been
receiving large salaries for several
years. Many of them are drawing
down as high as 900 year for posi-
tons that do not require the greatest
executive ability. This extravaganza
has been protested against without
success. About 12O men who hold
stock in the Exposition have refused
fatty to pay up and recently suits We're
commenced to force the deIinquents
TO settle. When these cases are up be-
fore the courts, the extravaganza of
the Exposition heads will receive a
delightful airing.
st. Louis people are not supporting
the Exposition in a very satisfactory
manner. During the opening week
there were but 65,387 paid admission
not enough to pay the daily running
expenses of the grounds. On the other
hand there We're $4,000 free admissions
during the same time. The cost of
running the Exposition must be very
great. The music alone costs in the
neighborhood of $1,000 a day. There
are several renowned military bands
employed. Souza furnishes two con-
certs each day and is said to receiva
$1,000 for each concert. All other
features are supported on an equally
expensive scale.
OF the Exposition itself no words
but Of praise can be said. but a long
story could be written on the graft
that is present always.

OF SCENERY
Prof. Alexander Thinks
Hawaii Should Do
Something.

From a letter just received from S.
Percy Smith, former Surveyor General
of New Zealand, and founder of the
Polynesian Society, we learn that he
has been appointed chairman of the
Royal Commission on the Preserva-
ton of Scenery" in New Zealand. The
New Zealand Parliament has voted
f1O0,0 900 to secure those of the beauty
spots Of that colony that still remain
in private hands, though many have
been destroyed, and there are still !arge
areas of Crown lands which can De re-
served.
This action should have been taken,
she thinks, 80 years ago.
Herein lies a lesson for Hawaii.

other circumstances as very suspi-
cious, believing that a powerful Sc
cret society was working in behalf of
the deserter. The Federal officers
have 10 deal with desertion cases al
most daily. but it was soon seen that
this was an exceptional one.
Amedeo admitted to Commissioner
North that Resi- had confided TO aim
that he was an anarchist, but the
sailor maintained that he had joiasd
no society. Speaking of the case.
George w. Hazen, Secret Sci vice
agent. said:
yes. we had Rossi and Crespi under
surveillance when the President was
here OF course. we always keep a
watch on such people. We have made
number of attempts to stop Crespi' s
paper from going through the mails,
but we have failed, so far.
In one instance, in discussing the
ordinance stopping street meetings,
Crespi expressed such sentiments as
these: Never mind free speech
What we need is less talk and more
action. Learn about dynamite and
high explosives. These were not the
exact words of the article, but I have
expressed the meaning. SO, no doubt
Amedeo, knowing all about torpedoes,
is a very valuable man to them"
Amedeo stated that he had been en-
ployed in an arsenal in Italy for sew
eraI years. When he and his friends
learned that the action of the Board
was final. and that the time for taking
an appeal to Secretary Cortelyou had
passed, they were frantic. The COM
mander of the Liguria has been cabIed
to and will hold his ship at Honolulu

Woods and on arrival here was turned
over to the Liguria, receipt being
taken for him. It is probable that
Amadeo will be placed in irons fol

An Italian deserter from the cruiser
Liguria arrived yesterday in the Sono-
ma from San Francisco from which
place he had been deported by the

anarchist and expert maker of bombs.

gathered by the officials, it is believed
that the sailor is an anarchist and
therefore a menace to the peace, law
and order of the nation
A special board of inquiry met VS.
terday in the Commissioners office to
investigate Amedeos case. He, with
two other friends of anarchistic ten
stoutly denied that he was a follower
of the red flag, but claimed that he
was so considered by certain Italians
of the city because he had openly ex-
pressed his disapproval of all royalty
and stated that he fervently hoped
that some day Italy would become a
republic.
From the inquisition held yesterday,
however, some interesting facts were
cleaned. It was learned that Amadeo
is an expert in all that pertains to the
manufacture, handling and treatment
of explosives, and is therefore a valu-
able man to the royal italian navy.
He arrived in this port on the
cruiser Liguria on April sd and soon
thereafter deserted. He was met by
another ex-member Of the italian
navy, who had deserted some three
to the home of Arturo Rossi. AS soon
as he became acquainted in the dolni-
Gle of the latter, he was given
pamphlets and other reading matter
containing the precepts and doctrines
of anarchy and advocating the abol-
ishment of all laws.

COUNTY COMMITTEE
MEETS THIS EVENING

The committee appointed by Gov
ernor Carter to frame a county law
for this territory will meet for thn
first time this evening at seven o'clock
at the office of the chairman, H L.
Cooper. The meeting will give most
of it's time to preliminary organiza-
ton. Mr.. Cooper regards himself
merely as q temporary chairman, but
it is regarded as most probable that
he will be elected permanently TO that
office. The other members of the
commission are. T. McCants Stewart,

HIS FRIENDS ARE KNOWN,

Soon Amedeo was introduced 20
Caesar Crespi, who edits and pub
fishes an Italian paper in this city.
Both Rossi and Crespi have long been
accused by certain Italian residents
here of being anarchists, and during
the recent visit of the President both
men were kept under strict surveil-
lance by the secret service men and
the police.
Rossi is a machinist and owns a
little shop at S04 Sansome street.
Amedeo went to work for him. During
the investigation yesterday Amedeo
was asked the following questions by
Commissioner North:
eff Mr.. Rossi asked you to manu-
facture a bomb or an Internal machine
would you do sop
'I would perform the work" was
the answer the torpedo expert made.
The board was unanimous in the
opinion that Amedeo's clear notions as
to his duty about doing the bidding of
his anarchistic master relative to the
making OF bombs and his generally
hazy ideas as to republican institutions
stamped him as a dangerous man.
The Italian Consul at this port was
thereupon authorized and ordered to
ship the man on the steamer Sonoma
He will be carried by this vessel to
Honolulu. where it is expected the
cruiser Ligurfa will be waiting to take
him on.
DENY THEY ARE ANARCHISTS.
Both Rossi and Crespi deny that
they are anarchists. The latter says
he is the publisher of a republican
paper, but witnesses from the Italian
colony declare that his statement is
merely a cloak to cover the spread
ing of anarchistic doctrines. The
United States Marshal had consider
able trouble in locating Amedeo, as
he was kept in the company of Rossi
The latter. in company with Crespi
hired an attorney and appeared before
Judge De Haven in the United States
District Court, where they sought TO
obtain Amedeo's freedom on habaas
corpus proceedings, but the Court de-
MED their petition.
The board of inquiry was much SIR
prised at the great number of friends
which this unknown sailor acquired
in his short stay in this country, Al
though three attorneys We're employed
no one seemed to know Just Who had
hired them. One of the lawyers said
he had been hired a the instfration
