They passed by the Chief Clerk. May
be they did not see him. Maybe his
imposing presence chilled their enthu-
siasm. Maybe they knew, with femi-
nine instinct, that he was nothing but
a married man. Anyway, they floated
right into the Governors office, like an
Oregon avalanche coming down before
its time, and only the sweet smiles that
caught and held the Acting Governor
kept him from sliding right down under
the table. For The Acting Governor is
modest, and bachelor. And again the
gushing young thing from Texas found
her voice.
"Oh," she trilled, IT just know you

The following dispatch tells the story
Of rather peculiar~ advertisement
printed in the afternoon papers yes
terday:
NEW YORK, Aug. AT last a war
rant has been issued for William H.
Belcher, who is still Mayor of Paterson,
N. j. He is charged with embezzlement,
and the police department has been or
dered to use It's utmost endeavors to
take the missing man into custody. But
that he will be located Is doubted by
every one In Paterson who is at all
familiar with the facts in the case. On
the lips of everybody today in the city
where for so many years he was looked
up to as a model citizen, husband and
father was the charge that 1.-The mean
est thief had by this time placed hum
dreds Of miles between himself and his
former home.
1t has been definitely ascertained that
Belcher had several thousand dollars at
least when he disappeared last Mon
day. During three days just before his
flight, after he had been confronted
by evidence obtained by bank examin-
ers and had made confession of his
crimes to them, he went from one to
another of those who had implicit con-
fidence in his integrity and without
any further security than his personal
promise to repay loans was able to Dor
row thousands of dollars. There are
many who believe that he had secreted
many thousands of dollars in addition
and that he carried away with him a
comfortable capital with which to make
new start in South America or some
other foreign land.
1t is now well ascertained fact
that Belcher has been n thief and a
forger for at least a dozen years, de-
scending to the level of the common
pickpocket in robbing those who trust
ed him with amounts as small as one
dollar. He has on several occasions
escaped exposure only by applying on
upon their selfish interest. promising
that If he were given time he would
make good their losses.
These exposures have convinced the
Paterson business men that he is not
the kind of man who would take his
own life. That he will ever be heard
of again is doubted; that the warrant
issued at the eleventh hour will re-
suit in his arrest Is not considered
within the range of probabilities.
The advertisement sent out by Sher
Brown was worded in this wise:
Any person acquainted with, or
knowing by sight, William H. Belcher,
formerly Mayor of Paterson, New Jer-
sey, is requested to call upon A. NJ.
Brown, Sheriff of the County of Oahu,
as soon as possible.

Sheriff, County of oahu.

Now, Sheriff Brown has not got Bel
cher in custody, although he wants him
identified, and steamer bound for
Australia is due in port from San
Francisco this morning, the Sonoma,

Holmes or a Chester Doyle, therefore,
to put the conclusions together in this

sheriff hopes to have Belcher. He
wants to be ready to identify his man

Honolulu knows Belcher. he will please
step forward and report to the sheriff.
If Belcher has. any friends here OF
course the publication of the fact that
he is expected, in fact anxiously ex-
pected, will do neither them nor him
any good. The Sonoma does not carry
wireless apparatus, so the New Jersey
defaulter cannot be warned, and the

Serious Loss to Shippers Of Los

RAILROAD TRAFFIC STOPPED
Hundreds of Carloads Of Fruit, Veee.

for the East and North Practically
Rotting in Cars.

Los Angeles, Cal, March 17.-Ser'
ious financial loss to shippers and the
prospect Of a partial famine in Los
Angeles in some lines OF foodstuffs
are the principal development Of yes
terday in the Generalization of rail-
road traffic to and from this city by
reason of the storm of Sunday and
Monday, says the Times. Hundreds of
cars of oranges. lefons, vegetables and
other perishable freight destined from
southern California to points east
and north are practically rotting on
side tracks, while similar trainloads
of supplies for this territory are tied
up at various points on the Santa Fe
east Of here. and on the Southern Pa
cific to the north.
Already the local market is feeling
the effect of the restriction in receipts
and the prices on some commodities
have risen appreciably
At the same time the growers of
oranges and vegetables, whose prod
ucts are decaying along the way or in
packing houses because Of the inabl.
ity Of the railroads to move them, are
facing heavy losses.
To add to the distress there is a
growing scarcity Of cars because Of
the large number Of empties held at
outside points beyond the blockades
on the paralyzed railroad lines.
