LENA'S CASE
Is Causing Our Officials
No Little Bother.
Needs Repairs and Will Prob
ably Be Given Proper Time.
But Otherwise Will Be Obliged to Dis
mantle Ship.

Washington. Sept 13.--The develop
mont of the day 50 far as it relates TO
tho Russian cruiser Lena, at san
Er,ncisco was the clearing UP Of the
official mud,ile arising out Of the doubt
a. n which Of five departments Of the
government should deal with it. 1t was
finally decided by the President Una
the state. and navy departments shoulo
treat the case. acting jointly ueci
sion calculated greatly to Simplify It's
handling.
A telegram from Admiral Goodrich at
San Francisco showed that on MS owl
initiative he had caused one OF hi9
expert officers to make a preilfilii'
examina ton Of the Lena ana that 'elii-
norary repairs would occupy SIX "eeh'
time and new boilers would lh'oiEe
eight months delay.
The President approved the adililrai $
action and decided that lie should con-
t;nue to handle the cas-" in san frafl-
cisco under Instructions from the state
and rayy departments. This lnVolVeu

ship.

Francisco gave the understanding ana
within 4 day or two with the assistance
Of expert mechanics from the 'hioh
Iron Works. Admiral Goodrich VIII be
able to report more closely on the re-
pairs.
The admiral also adopted the pre-
caution of guarding the Lena with ms
own vessels. a course also approved by
the DEPARTMENT. agreeable to the Presi-
dents instructions.
Acting Secretary Adee for the state
department and Capt. Pilsbury for the
navy department. had two conferences
during the day and the result was tn"
preparatiOn OF Instructions to Admiral
Goodrich. which It Is understood We're
wired to the President. first, for his
approval.
There Is good ground to believe that
these instructions contemplate tn" al
Iowance of sufficient time to the Lena
to mako temporary repairs. However,
there IS growing belief here that the
vessel will bc obliged to intern in the
end. for it is altogether likely that by
the time she could be made ready to &c
70 sea one or more japanese cruisers
would he off the Golden Gate ready t.
sink or capture her.
Fornseeing such an event as re-

A COW CASE.
Mar Held for Grand Jury--Owner
Receivers His Animal.


g. +. Carleton was before Judge SAT-
ford iu the muuicinal court. yesterday
to answer to Il charge brought against
him, pertaining to the larceny of n
COW.
From the evidence presented it
seems that a COW belonging t. Josiah
Gray. q resident of Granite Hill. was
missed at noon on Tuesday. Sept. G.
At p. NJ Of the same day, the COW
in question: valued at $45, was pur-
chased by q French citizen of Au-
guSta named LeClaire for 81. LeClaire
states that he bought the animal of an
old man. Various people remember
having seen a man leading a COW into
Augusta on the day in question. but
complete identification of the person
thus engaged has been quite impos-
sible. 1t was shown by the State that
Carleton had been seen in or near the
pasture during the forenoon. No other
person was seen in the pasture. The
matter was rehearsed at some length
and Carleton was finally admitted to
bail for appearance at the April term
Of the grand jury.
Mr.. Gray has recovered his COW and

guilty party might be. 1t seems that
there nave been numerous depre1a-
tions somewhat unaccounted for at
the Hill for a year past.

TWO HUNDRED MEN
TWO YEARS
TO GET INFORMATION

Recent cablegrams from the seat of
war in the Orient saying that bridges
on the Mancturian railroad had been
blown up by secret agents of Japan,
brings to light the fact that there has
been another but very distinct body OF
Japanese spies at work in Korea.
About 200 men eft Japan two years
ago for Korea, where they intended 10
engage in mercantile pursuits. At
that time these men had no idea of
doing anything else but attending
strictly to business, yet they saw that
sooner or later Japan and Russia
would lock horns over Korea, and, be.
Ing men who had all completed the
| first service In the japanese army, and
having the interests Of their mother
country at heart, they formed them
selves into a secret society and set
about to inspect the forts in Korea
and to draw maps and gather data
concerning the physical nature of the
whole country.
This body Of men paid their own ex
penses and worked on their own &C,
cord without the advice or consent OF
Japan. When the proper time came
this information which they had gath
cred was all forwarded to the proper
officials at Toxic and today this self
same information is an immense help
to Japan as she is using it to her great
advantage In the present conflict.

gone conclusion that Honolulu will
eventually enjoy municipal govern

many years old. There is every reason
why a corporation of this character
should be subject to the municipal au.

of the Legislature when this measure
was up for action than they were In

chse gave. The general sentiment
then was and still is that this estab.
lished company should be granted a
franchise renewal The unselfsh ia;
vor awarded this renewal resulted In
the company obtaining a beautifully
rich plum. Even now there are many
who feel that no harm will be done in
leaving the corporation free in the
exercise of its own free will. The con-
trolling stockholders are regarded by
such as public.spirited men and conse.
quently no harm could come OF their
broad range of power. These people
forget the impersonal character of a

coal from any ports along the route,
with the exception Of China, so that
coaling during the major part of the
trip will have to be taken from the
transports taken along. The first stop
will probably be made at Tangier and
while Morocco is Independent and
under Sultan, still 1t is thought the
Russian feet will pay no attention to
this and 80 ahead with their coaling
operations at the place mentioned.
Two stops could be made in the Red
Sea and under the same circumstances.
The next stop could be made at some
port in China, the Russians telling the
Chinese to lump 1t" in case of objec.
ton.
In the meantime, Japan will have
two months during which to carry on
their maneuvers by sea and land and
1t is the opinien Of army and navy ex.
perts in the city that she will be pretty
fairly established when the big Rus
sian fleet arrives and that she will be
ready on every hand to throw hot shot
into the Russians.
When Bulletin reporter called IN
at the Navy Station this morning, a
group of Army and Navy men were
talking together and what follows are
the points CLEANED from the converse
ton.
The Japanese will unquestionably
make every effort to capture Port Ar.
thur and entrench themselves strong
ly. They will also make as much OF
an effort to capture Niuchwang, far up
in the Gulf of Liaotung. This is as
much of Russian city as st. Peters.
burg, being completely in the hands of
the subjects of the Gar. With these
two places under their control, the
Russians would be completely shut OFF
