A BAFrLED CONSPIRACY.

The conspiracy to control the Ha-
waiian courts and use them for base
purpose dies hard but it is dying never
trenched and arrogant; now its breast
works are smashed and the hospital is
fun OF its wounded. Two of the con-
spirators are out of office, disbarred
from the practice of law; the man who
was depended upon in the Senate of
the United States to aid its propaganda
Is facing the prison door waiting for
the scissors of the convict barber; one
of it's Circuit judges, shown TO be an
impostor, IS soon to see the close Of
the last term he win ever get on the
Hawaiian bench; and another, whose
Judicial career has been signaIized by
the emptying of jails and by his BAN
quet toast. Success to Crime" can
have no hope of reappointment- AS
vacancies occur, the President has hil-
ed them with good men and before long
all that exists of the Circuit Court con-
spsracg will be an unhappy memory
and a bad smell.
During these years of judicial mis-
conduct, two Judges of the Supreme
Court have held the ground against the
enemies OF justice and of good govern
ment These high-minded jurists are
Chief Justice Frear and Associate JUS
tice Perry. Sitting with them on the
- t.<.<,~- a r,a cro-- W hose
decisions ON any political matter or on
any matter having to do with the
progress OF the conspiracy in the lower
COURTS, could always be forecasted.
This man, too, will soon go off the
bench; but in going. he and his en-
FILTERED followers would like to pull
Justices Frear and Perry after him.
Hatred OIL these two honest jurists af-
fords the remnant of the old gang their
only hope If they can punish Frear
and Perry for standing in the way of
their political schemes that will be
something gained to match so much
lost; and then If they can secure men
OF their oyvn for the vacancies, once
more the old conspiracy win find itself
intrenched on higher ground
But neither the people, the Governor
nor the President viii stand for any |
more scandals on the bench; those in |
authority are not going to take risks |
IN such grave matter The Hawai-
ian public have learned from the adj |
.--s..-t~11. ,rvo;,,f,nao+o an FAR made L
what to expect of the Governor and |
President It viii look for as good
selections hereafter; and its SYM
patEies are strongly enlisted against |
any scheme to punish Judges Frear
and Perry for combating those who
would have turned the administration
of justice into a political machine.
Their work has earned the highest
consideration at the hands of the ap-
pofntive power Nothing can be said
against their honesty, their capacity
or their motives. True, there are other
men, such as aartweil, Highton, Hatch
and Cooper against whom no objections
can be raised: and one of these will,
no doubt, secure the place to be vac.at-
ed. for the Territory's good, by Justice 4
GaIbraith. But it would surely be a
poor encouragement to the future ex-
ercise of courage and highmindedness
on the Supreme Bench to punish JUS
tiees Frear and Perry for the enemies
they have made in the plain perform
anee of their duty.

ACTIVITY ON THE YALU.

According to Russian advices the
column out of several across the Yaiu.
This means that If the victorious force
can hold it's position, the remainder
Of the army will follow on the same
route, thus establishing itself on Man
churian soil. The main object undoubt-
eddy is to clear the way for the en-
trance of japanese gunboats to the
river where they can do their part in
protecting the rear and TANKS. An
advance seems to have followed the
passage of the stream, as the Russians
report a successful defense of one of
their Manchurian villages.
So many false rumors have come
from Paris that little credence can be
given the news, following a dispatch
from there about the sinking of four
japanese transports by the vladivos-
tok squadron. that a submarine boat
has sunk Japanese troopship en- route
to Korea. Such information if true
would be heralded by the Russian gov
eminent, not left to the gossip of the
French boulevards
The main fact of interest is that, I'M
less the Russians pursue a Fabian
policy, collision of land forces on
great scale cannot be long delayed.
The hostile armies are now face to
face.

What is the matter with auditing in
this Territory? Every few days the
public hears of a shortage either in
public office or private employment
which has escaped notice for weeks or
months by auditors whose chief bust
ness is to see that accounts are kept
straight. Even in such well-managed
institution as a bank or a great sugar
house. embezzlement seems to call for
no especial skill of concealment up to
a point where the loss is so large that
it shows itself. In the Territorial gov
eminent the same state of facts has
always prevailed. Surely there must
be something radically wrong with the
auditing system. Is it because men.
out of good fellowship, do not like to
ransack the accounts of their friends
or has the ennui Of the tropics torpifed
the spirit of investigation?

The passenger train, consisting of

The impact telescoped the tender

ST. Petersburg, Oct. 11.-(2:15 a. n.y.
"A battle, upon which the fate of this
years campaign in Manchuria depends,
seems only a f. - days ahead. Adj
vices from the front are meagre All
that is positively known officially is
that General Kuropatkln has cast the
Gle at last, about faced his army AMI
Is marching resolutely against the
enemy as if resolved to do or die
According to unofficial reports, Field
Marshal Oyama, at the first sign Of
General Kuropatllin taking the often
siye, began drawing in his line and
concentrating upon fortified positions
north of Lao Yang. According to the
latest reports, which are contained in
q despatch to The Associated Press
from Mukden, dated at o'clock last
night, the Japanese outposts are be-
ing driven in all along the line.
The strategy Of the forward move
ment will be concealed as were the
preparations for the advance, so that
all surmises as to where General KurO-
patkin intends to strike arc mere
gucsswork It is not clear whether
General Kuropatkin contemplatcs a
blow on the left center or right Of he
japanese army, but the fact that stress
is Had upon the capture of Bentsia-
putze, which opens the road and fCrds
to Bensiahu, twenty miles east of Lao
ana. where General Kuropatkin
crossed, and that Cossacks are already
reported in the neighDOyhCcd Of the
stream, might foreshadow an exact r.
versal Of the battle Of Lao Vans,
this time the Russian commander

his left as Field Marshal Oyama did

Little light has been thrown upon
the considerations which led General
Kuropatkin suddenly 10 assume the
offensive; but no word is heard az the

ing the heavy task and severe sacrt
fees that are involved in assuming
tho offensive, nevertheless express
absolute confidence that General Kuro
patkin has found a weak point in the
Japanese armOr. The best opinion
here is that the impending battle is
likely to develop with startling rapid
ity.
1t Is reported that the japanese
have abandoned Sianchan, Saimtazc
and Neichoulin, positions east of Lao
Yang.

that the Japanese recently centeret

Reported to Have Reached Urder-

st. Petersburg, Oct. 1.-THE rumor
of the existence of an understanding
between Russia and Germany covering
the war in the far east has again been
revived. According to the latest YER
sion Germany gives certain guaran-
tees to Emperor Nicholas regarding
the German frontier, which will enable
Russia TO withdraw troops from tho
big gaFHsons maintained in Russian
Poland and dispatch them to the far
east, beside agreeing to support Rus
STA in peace negotiations at the end OF
the war Germanys compensation-in
addition TO the concessions mad3 in
the commercial treaties already ne.
gotiated is % be the support of Rus
STA in the attempt to incorporate The
Netherlands in the German confed-
Grafton in the event of the death OF
Queen Wilhelmin9 without a direct
heir.
Diplomatic circles are discussing the
story with interest. Nothing confirma-
tory Of the report is obtainable in re-
sonpsible government circles, where
the story is dismissed as being the in
vention of enemies Of both countries.
The strained relations between the
foreign Office and the admiralty over
the question of contraband, accord
ing to high authority, has reached an
acute stage. Foreign Minister Lans.
dorff is said to consider that he has
suffered a personal affront under
which he cannot rest and purposes to
raise the Issue at the weekly audience
with the emperor and at the same time
tender his resignation. Confidence is
expressed that should the matter go
thus far the emperor will decline to
accept Count Lamsdorff's resignation.
