in the Ventura, August %, of this year
This he admitted. II is known that
Halter came here on this date. In
speaking to his fellow passengers he
explained that he came to Hawaii as he
had q little capital for which he was
seeking a profitable investment.
~ is said on good authority that Hat
ter, while he was spying on the police
department, did not deliver his re-
ports to Governor Carter personally,
, In fact, the Governors statement to
A. M. Brown, that he had not seen
Halter before yesterday, bears this out
| IL Is also said that Halter reported Ia
j. r. Gait of the Hawaiian Trust Com
pany and that his reports were brought
to the Governor by Mr.. Gait.
At little after 8 o'clock the inspec
ton of the city police force took place
In the police station yard. The mount

an immensely sad and impressive one
= The greatest OF sorrow and extreme
{ bitterness showed on the faces Of the
men at the departure OF their former
chiefs aud the love and esteem which
Mr.. Brown and Mr.. Chillingworth had
Il won in the hearts Of their men was
shown palmer than words could have
expressed IL. Strong men with mass

, from whom no measure OF physica
pain could wiring tear, wept like chill
