ACCOUNT
OF HIS ARREST
Continued from Page H.

downtown hotel portion. At the lat
ter place we were playing a second
game when I suggested to Morris that
we quit, as the game was too slow to
be of any interest to either of us, and
Morris consented. On the way, down
from the billiard parlor, 1 stopped at
the Stand to purchase cigarettes (this
is on the ground floor and the entrance
to the building), when 1 heard cursing
coming from the rear of the building,
where there is a bar, and then an order
by the proprietor to his bartenders to
put man out. In the rush-out the
crowd did not seem to know who was
being put out,-and 1 suppose 1 got a
bit curious, too, to see the row. The
first 1 knew someone brushed against
me and another ran into me from the
rear and then was rushed out by the
mob. Staggering forward through the
entrance l felt somebody hit me from
the back and a second blow knocked
me down to the sidewalk 1t all hap
pened so quickly HAD not the oppor-
tunity to strike back and, upon rising
l asked for an explanation. Two fell
loWs,-one turned out to be an officer
In citizens clothes,-said something to
this effect you shut up, drunken mig
ger! and then made a lunge at me.
Three or four others, who undoubtedly
knew the officer and, probably thinking
they were assisting him, all jumped on
me and resisted-with but little ef-
feet, however. 1 was protesting against
this outrage perpetrated on me when
the patrol wagon arrived and two DO
licemen roughly took hold of me, when
again protested to the arrest being
unjustihed, and asked who had placed
me under arrest. The officer in citl-
zen's clothes replied he did, ara
showed his authority, the badge, upon
my demand. l requested of the un
formed officers that the fellow who
struck me and alsu the officer that
placed me under arrest be taken along
too but the latter told them, Never
mind him. take the damned drunken
nigger!" On arrival at the station
with the two cops" 1 was charged with
dlsorderly conduct, when / then again
protested and demanded the arrest OF
the other two without avail. Then
told the clerk that l am a Congress-
man and that thought Congressman
had some privileges exempting him
from arrest while he is in attendance
at the Capital. He replied he thought
there was no help unless l put up S.
collateral which l refused 20 do unless
II be upon my own recognizance. The
clerk again replied that had one of
two things to chose, either put the col
lateral up or be locked up. / had be-
come enraged at the perpetrated out
rage and l chose the latter.

THE
HONGKONG

In spite of the fact that the San Fran
cisco newspapers stated that the Hong
Kong Maru was not likely to leave YO-
kohama this month but to be held there
as a transport by the Japanese Govern
ment the local agents of the vessel, II.
Hackfeld & Company are inclined to
the belief that the vessel will sail from
Yokohama. one reason for believing
this is the fact that the San Francisco
agents of the Togo Kisen Kaisha sent
a special dispatch containing various
orders and directions for the Hong
King by the S. S. Coptic. The official
mail for the Hong Kong would scarcely
have been sent to Honolulu by the
agents had they anticipated that the
Hong Kong Maru would not be allowed
to sail for Honolulu. If there had been
any reason for thinking that the Hong
Kong would not come, the agents would
scarcely have bothered about sending
the mail and orders to Honolulu by the
Coptic to be held ustil the arrival of
the Hong Kong.
Neither the Marine Exchange nor H.
Hackfeld & Company have received any
official advices regarding the withdraw
al of the Hong Kong, yet, at the same
| time, the sailing Of the vessel from YO-
kohama has not been reported. The
vessel was to have sailed from Yoko-
hama January 20: This is January %,
and still no word has come. Were it
not for this absence of notification of
sailing the agents would feel certain
that the boat is coming.
The America Maru WILL it is thought,
come as usual. She will take freight
and passengers as far as Kobe She
will no doubt be sent by way of Homo
! lulu from San Francisco.

NIBLACK GETS
HIS INSTRUCTIONS

Captain Niblack, the inspector of the
local lighthouse division, received full
instructions regarding the conduct of
his department, by the mail today. He
has been ordered to begin to make
tour of inspection as soon as possible.
He will probably start on this trip
next month. The local inspector has
been ordered to operate his division on
as economical basis as possible. He
has also been asked to furnish esti-
mates for lighthouse tender for these
islands. 1t is not probable that yes
sci will be chartered for this purpose.
Such a boat will be necessary and will
later be added to the local division.
First Lieuptenant Slattery of the en-
gineer corps of the army has been or
dered to come to this place as engineer
ing officer for this division. His duties
will be to look after the construction
of new lights and wharves and buoys
and also making repairs.

.SHEM HAS
BEEN BURIED

Shem Kuneakea has been buried a
second time. News by the steamer
Mauna LOa this morning from Kau is
to the effect that the kahunas who
were specially imported from Puma to
Punaluu to try and persuade the ghost
of Shem to go back into his grave were
successful.
Shem terrorized tbs native population
for time. He would make a habit of
appearing at all of the feasts. So scared
We're the natives that various families
were made miserable by having to post
pone giving birthday luaus. They
feared that Shem Mould appear and

Company. 1t was placed on a billiard
table in the Alexander Young Hotel,

demand for a bill of sale of Church's

said that he could not accept it, said
Humphreys. His refusal was uncon-
ditional, and the coin was taken away

Church.
Crook took the stand and gave prac-
tically the same testimony. He was
with Humphreys when the heavy bag
of gold was carried to the Young hotel
and refused by Church. His testimony
closed the case for the plaintiff.
Church took the stand in his own be-
half, and stated that he could not car

he had not yet made arrangements

mory of these witnesses makes them

is that when I refused the $4,000 stat
