AN OLD GAME.
A confidins American Robbed by
London Con Men.

LONDON, Oct. 27.-By means of
the confidence" trick a young Amer
lean gentleman, now on a visit to
London, has just been robbed Of Bank
of England notes to the value Of
$500. The, three thieves, as is usual
in this class of fraud, got clear away
with their booty.
1t was On Tuesday last, in Totem
ham court road, that the American,
Mr.. c., met a we'll dressed man, who
gave his name as Williams, and who
asked to be directed to the British
Museum. Next day the two men met
by appointment, and lunched together
at the Bedford hotel. After lunch
they went into the coffee room, where
they met an Irisnman.
During a general chat the Irishman,
who said he was a Mr.. Fogarty, men
toned that a rich uncle had recently
left him $435 900 in cash, and real es-
tate in India to the value of $1,000.
"Fogarty'' explained that he was glad
enough to get the money and the es-
tate, but that he was bothered by a
clause in the will, which directed him
to distribute $4,000 among the poor
of America, and a similar sum among
the poor of Australia.
Il
ces under which he was robbed to a
representative Of the Daily Mail, said
it appeared evident from the Irish
mans talk that he was ignorant
about money matters, and that he
was being swindled right and left. He
(Mr. c. therefore advised him to
distribute the bequest through law
yers or bankers, but "Fogarty' re-
piled that he would not have more to
do with lawyers than he could nelp.
In the result "Fogarty' asked him If
he would undertake the distribution
Of $4,000 in America. and accept
$500 for his services.
On the following day, Thursday.
Williams introduced a Mr.. Wilson,
an Australian, for whose respecta-
bility he vouchej, as one who might
be useful in distributing the $4,000
in Australia.
the supposed rich man, 'Fogarty,"
said he liked the bearing Of both Mr..
c. and Wilson" and he would hand
over $4,000 to each Of them If they
men of substance. If they accepted
the trust they would both have to re-
port at regular intervals to the Rev.
Father Riley as to the manner in

ATTORNEY GENERAL RENDERS
AN OPINION OF INTEREST
TO THE TEACHERS.
Asked for Decision as Qualifications
Of Woman as Superintendent Of
Public Schools.

A controversy existing in San Juan
county as to the qualifications of Mrs.
Nellie Sweeney to hold the Office of
school superintendent of that county
has been presented to the attorney
general for an opinion.
Mrs. Sweeney is a graduate Of the
Seattle high school and took a course
in the Whatcom normal school, OBJ
tanning a five years elementary GER
tificate. The law requires as one of
the qualifications Of school superin-
tendents that they shall possess first
that Mrs. SWeeney's certificate is not
strictly a first grade certificate, some
of the patrons of the San Juan schools
have been contending that she is not
qualified to hold the position.
The attorney general, in an opin-
ion prepared today, holds that Mrs
Sweeney is at least a de facto officer
and that her acts in such office are
valid. In view of the fact that the
matter has been presented principally
through private individuals, the attor-
ney-keneral refuses to write a more
specific opinion.
He says that should an action by
the proper authorities in quo warran-
to be entered to try her title to the
office he will then do so.

officials by whom they were prepared.
There is no doubt that many Of them
are of great value, but intelligent dis
elimination and more effective dis
tribution should result from the in
quiry.
There are tons upon tons of doc
uments for which there will never be
any demand piled up in the basement
of the capitol; there are carloads of
be any demand piled up in the ware
rooms of the government printing Of
fee: tons Of these documents are
piled in the committee rooms and in
the various departments about WASH
ington, and in the garrets and wood
sheds of senator's and representa-
tives throughout the country. 1t all
represents waste and extravaganza
and improvidence. The situation is
fairly shrieking for correction.
Requests by Congressman.
eat every session of congress the
committees on printing of both the
house and senate are deluged with
requests for printing of special re-
ports and additional copies not al
laws, Notwithstanding the fact that
ready authorized by the printing laws
notwithstanding the fact that the ap-
preparations for printing have been
practically doubled within the last ten
years.
Had the printing committees Of
the house and the senate acted fav
orably upon requests that were
earnestly urged from conscientious
motives the last congress would have
faced an expenditure of s2,0OO,000 on
special printing alone.
THE committees of the last con-
enormous in the aggregate that early
after their organization they decided
to pursue a policy of the most rigor-
Gus scrutiny and discrimination. rs
result they reduced this item of ex-
pense, as compared with the two
preceding congresses, more than SO
per cent and reduced this item of ex-
penditure more than a quarter Of
million dollars. This convinced the
committees that a substantial saving
could be made along the line and led
to the creation of this investigation

Determined EFFORT BE MADE
TO RAISE PAY OF OFF,
GERS AND MEN.
Enlisted Men Are Deserving Of More
Than $13 Per Month, Say
Prominent Officers.

Admiral McCalla, Major General
Sumner and other prominent army
and navy officers On this coast are
now declared to be confident that a
bill to raise the pay of both officers
and enlisted men in the new army and
navy will be presented to the next
congress, and the strongest influence
obtainable will be brought to bear
to have it made law. 1t is argued
it has been more than quarter OF
century since the pay of officers has
been increased, and it is pointed out
that during that period the cost of liv-
ing has increased many times what
it was 25 years ago.
Some of the officers are quoted as
saying that the frequent changes of
station ordered by the department of
war are a source of gerat expense to
them. While it is true that the gov
eminent allows part of the expense
incurred, the allowance, it is claimed,
does not nearly compensate them for
transferring themselves and their
families from one coast to another.
Another source of expense is the
constant changing an collaborating of
uniforms, says the Examiner. Former
ly an officers wardrobe was not a
matter of any considerable expense.
But now a different uniform is pre-
scribed for almost every occasion. The
social requirements, which have
become by custom to be a part of an
officers life, are such as will not ad-
NIT of any cheap dressing, and the
most expensive material and work.
manship are necessary, in the opin-
wishes to be considered in the swim,
and most of them do.
Relative to the case of enlisted men
in both the army and navy, the Off
GERS say that the demand for higher
mental calibre in the men is increas-
ing every year, and that their pay
should be such as will induce a high
grade of men to become soldiers and
sailors. In the opinion of the Off
GERS $13 a month, even with clothing,
quarters and rations, is no induce
ment these days for the class of men
which the service most desires.

Negro To Be Chosen.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 27.-President
Roosevelt has decided to appoint a
negro from Chicago to succeed Jud-
son w. Lyons of Georgia as register
of the treasury.
F. L. Barnett, assistant states at

cago men who have been mentioned
for the place. c. F. Adams, the as

Selling Land Granted by a Kinq.

NEW YORK, Oct. 27-The exclu-
sive Van Cortlanjt estate, compris-
ing about 500 acres of land and build
ings at Croton- on the Hudson, has
been sold to the Wood Harmon COM
pany. The property was granted to
the Van Cortlandt family by King
William III. and not a square inch of
it mas ever been sold. The original
grant, signed by the king, still hangs
in frame on the walls of the old
manor house. The sellers were Cath
crime T. r. Mathews and Annie S.
Van Cortlandt, the sole surviving
heirs of the family. They only retain
the manor and about thirty acres of
land.

that the San Francisco fans would not
patronize a fight of that kind, insisted
upon a straight rule fight.

PUBLIC PRINTING WASTE,
Tons on Tons of Documents Piled Up
at Capital, Useless to Nation.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 81
Representative Charles B. Lands, the
chairman of the sub committee Of the
congressional printing Investigation
committee, charged with an inquiry
into extravaganza and waste in the
public printing, today reiterated the
statement ne made in congress that
the government could save a million
dollars year in its printing bill. Mr..
Lands says this can be done, not
only without material injury to any
public interest, but to the great relief
of members of congress, public Off
Gals, and the public generally.
Mr.. Lands declared today that a
printing contagion seems to have
swept over and taken possession of
congress, and all departments of the
government, to such an extent that
an arbitrary reduction in the print
ing appropriations of from 20 to 25
per cent could be made without doing
violence to the public welfare.
Seeking for Reasons.
The inquiry" he said, has ex-
tended to every section Of the country
and an effort made to obtain the esti-
mate of value placed upon these
documents by the people for whom
they are intended, as we'll as bv the

ARE THE COOS AFTER
STANOPATTERS2
THE CURIOUS QUESTION WHICH
TARIFF SITUATION.

The tariff conference at Chicago is
worthy of the attention it attracts, the
Washington Star remarks. Democrats
and Republicans, business men and po-
! liticians, men in office and men out of
: Office are in session on a subject of the
highest Importance. Markets, and still
more markets, for our rapidly increas-
ing products of soil and mill and mine
we must have. All agree on that point.
Discussion plays around how they may
be secured. Reciprocity has it's cham
pons. A maximum and minimum scale
of duties-which is a species of recipro-
city-is urged by others. Tariff revi-
sion, pure and simple, is also advocat-
ed. Relief in some form is necessary,
both from those rates of the Dingley
bill purposely made high for negotia-
| TONS sake, and from the threatened
reprisals of foreign governments, Ger
many in particular
1t is expressly declared at Chicago
that no blow is aimed at protection as
a policy. The point is to deal with
situation which has grown out of pro-
lection. Protection has built us up to
our present towering proportions, and
the desire is i'm readjusting schedules
and trading terms to continue protec-
tion wherever it is essential to the fOs
tering of American industries. But in
dustres no longer in need of such help
should no longer receive it. Unearned
and undeserved bounties paid to them
are barriers in the way of the general
welfare.
Nothing is clearer than that if the
railroads and the standpatters prevent
tariff revision by Congress at the COM
4 ing session, that subject will be the is
sue next year in the choosing of the
members of the Sixtieth House. Do
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1905-09-07

the standpatters desire that? Are they
willing that the tariff shall become en-
tangled with the railroad rate problem
and share in the embarrassments that
exist and are growing over that issue?
1t would not appear to be very good
policy. The Objectionable features of
the Dingley law have enough of their
own to answer for without loading them
down with such an alliance. But may
be the gods are after the standpatters,
and are proceeding in the old way of
making them mad. That way as we all
know, lies destruction.
