day afternoon and the sum of $50
was collected from the sale of watch
es, jewelry and overcoats, given by
the members present, after a string

young business men of this city.
The temple was crowded with the
men, women and children who had
come to attend the services. Black
draperies hung about the interior OF
the synagogue. All the people pres
ent wore black bands on their coats.
The first speaker of the day was
Rabbi Cohen, of New York. He made
an address in which he urged the
Hebrew people of this city to do all
that they could to help the down
trodden Jews in Russia. He was fol-
lowed by Prof l.. Weinberg, the
principal of the Hebrew free school,
who talked of the necessity of self
defense for the Russian Jews.

Samuel Tucker was next introduce
ed He gave a description of the hor-

their rights are menaced and their
lives threatened.
He then advised all his hearers,
who have friends and relatives in
Russia to bring them to America.

Tore Rings From Fingers.
Mr. Tucker said that it took money
to do things and that they must have
it. He pulled his gold watch out o.
his pocket and said that he would sell
it to the highest bidder In less time
than it takes to tell, almost every
member present had decided to do
likewise Watches, rings and other
various articles of iewelry and cloth
ing were given. The women in the
gallery tore off rings and pins and
then threw them on the platform.
When all the articles had been col
lected Mr. Tucker and Nathan Roth
were appointed to sell them. They
were put up and some lively bidding
took place and in short time every
thing had beer sold
Stores Closed.
During the hours of service from
4 o'clock until 6 o'clock nearly all OF
the Hebrew stores in this city were
closed and the owners attended the
services. BESIDES the money cleared
by the sale, collection was taken uD

was realized in this way.
The money will be equally divided

LOCAL TROUBLES OF
new YORK LIFE

Cashier +. A. Wicket, of the New
York Life Insurance Company, was
seen yesterday by an Advertiser re-
porter in regard to the charges fled
with the Insurance Commissioner by
the Hawaiian Trust Co., agents for the
Prudential Life Insurance Co., of New
ark, n. j.
Mr.. Wicket said, 81 have not very
much to say, for there is not much to
talk about. l am at a loss to under
stand what the real trouble is about
unless it is jealousy, which unfortu-
nately exists between certain agents of
life insurance companies, especially
upon the part of the fellow who is get
ting a little short on his business.
81 understood that this matter had
been settled to the satisfaction of all
parties concerned and did not know
that there was any kick coming until
read of the charges in this mornings
Advertiser. These charges are an at
tempt to discredit the New York Life.
'' AS far as any investigation is con-
cerned the New York Life courts the
most searching examination in all its
affairs. The company has done its
business in a straightforward manner
and has written an unusually large
amount of business, having at the pres
ent time over $4,000,O00 in force
throughout these Islands, and our poll
cies are held by the most substantial
and representative people in the Ter
ritory.
cit is not our policy to throw mud
at our competitors; we have gotten the
bulk of the business without doing 30,
as can easily be ascertained by refer
ence to the reports filed by all life in
suranee companies doing business in
Hawaii with Treasurer and Insurance
Commissioner Campbell.
"Our motto is, Stick to business
and keep yellin', let the other fellow
kick. -

at Yokosuka probably gave rise to the
rumor that japan herself was engaged
in building submarines of a type plan
ned by japanese naval constructors.
Mr.. Miner states that none of the
submarines were ready for use during
any of the engagements of the war.
and that no submarines were used on
either side in the great battle of Japan
Sea.
On leaving Yokosuka Mr.. Miner and
associates were given an ovation by
Japanese naval officers. and at Yoko-
hama they were similarly honored
The statement of the Superintendent
Of the Holland Submarine Company
that no submarines were completed for
japan in time to take part in the war
Is of special interest in view of the
famous North Sea incident" when the
Russian fleet fired on and sank English
trawlers, afterwards claiming privilege
on the ground that Japanese subma-
rines had been sighted.
Reference being made to President
Roosevelt's trip below water in the sub

ceipt of the news in Japan caused
great interest.

BUYS LAND TO
RAISE {|SA ON

Christian Conradt has purchased the
Mouritz lands at Pukoo, Molokai, and
will shortly begin planting sisal on an
extensive scale. He will also continue
to raise cattle on the lands, using the
upper mountain ridges for this pur-
pose, where the pasturage is luxuriant.
The Mouritz place runs from the top
of the mountains to the sea, with the
exception of that section purchased by
Postmaster Bannister sometime ago.
The Bannister land is on the makai
side of the government road. DR..
Mouritz had his residence on the Ban
mister property, but afterwards built a
commodious home beneath a grove of
trees on the upper lands, close to the
mouth of. valley. The Conradts will
take up their residence at Pukoo. The
lands are well adapted to the growing
of sisal and Mr.. Conradt expects to
develop sisal into an industry which
will be entered into by others.
