character made known, the owner of
the property, no matter who that may
be, will be warned of what has taken
place and of his liability under the law.
If the warning is not needed, the own
er will be punished. And, as before
stated, this campaign will not be con-
fined to Honolulu and its vicinity. Or
ders will be sent to follow like course
on all the islands-and the High Sheriff
will see to it that this course is fol-
lowed.
Among the first people to be round
ed up in the raid were four French
women of Iwilei. They were taken to
the police station, where they gave
bail for their appearance in police
court today, and We're released. The
sudden descent upon Iwilei rid the
place of frequenters and it became a
dead village within an hour.

The High Sheriff has decided to sup
press Iwilei.
Last night a campaign of repression
was commenced against the Iwilei evil.
The next step will be the service OF
notice upon the officers of the Fidelity
Insurance Company that their property
is being used for immoral purposes in
contravention of the law. This will
be a purely formal proceeding, as the
fact of the use of the property to house
prostitutes has been made notorious by
by facts that are within common
knowledge
Last night Sheriff Henry raided the
houses in Iwilei. This is only a be-
ginning. And it is not alone in 1wllel
that the houses of this character are
to be repressed with all the sternness
that the law calls for. 'I am going
to extend the campaign to all parts of
the Territory" said High Sheriff Hen
ry last night. 'I will pursue these Of
tenders as far as / can under Terri
toria, law. and everybody who owns
property that is used for immoral pur-
poses. no matter where it is situated,
must bear his responsibility under the
law. After 1 have done my part,
shall hope to see the Edmunds Act en-
forced to the limit. But 1 shall not
make fish of one and fowl of another
The High Sheriff had a consultation
with the Governor relative to this mat
ter some days ago, and there was an
other consultation yesterday between
them upon other matters, but in the
course of which the Iwilei business
was discussed. The Governor agreed
with the High Sheriff that it was the
duty OF executive officers to enforce
the law-as, of course, it is.
Last night the Sheriff sent a number
OF plain clothes men down to Iwilei,
and found the place running full blast,
of course. as there was a transport in
port. and the streets We're filled with
soldiers and sailors many of them un-
der the influence of liquor. A better
time could not have been chosen, in
fact for the Inauguration of the policy
Of strong repression. At least one
woman was gathered from every house |
by the raiders. The flying squadron !
will not cease its operations at that.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 25.-
The drafting division of the quarter
master generals office has the plans
for the new barracks and other build
ings at Honolulu practically completed
They are awaiting the approval of
Quartermaster General Humphrey on
his return from Cuba. The plans call
for very substantial set of buildings.
Two or three of the buildings will be
built entirely of concrete, including the
guardhouse and prison. All the others
will be of concrete foundations with
framework for the superstructures.
None of the buildings will be more
than two stories high. Broad porches,
heavy overhanging cornices, and COM
paratively low roofs will prevail in all
the construction. In every particular,
as far as the living quarters are con-
cerned, great attention will be paid to
the plumbing and the sanitary arrange
ments. The prison, for instance, will
be built so that the hose can be turned
on every part of it and sweep every bit
of dirt outside. The broad porehes,
especially those on the residences of
the officers, will be in part enclosed
with fine wire screens ana in part with
IL
toes and other Objectionable insects.
All the plans, it should be remember
ed, are in a way tentative. as the
quartermaster general has not yet ap-
proved them.
The administration building, as now
planned, will be two stories in height,
As feet front and so feet deep. The
main part of the building will have a
10-foot porch around both stories. The
first floor will contain the commanding
officer s office, the adjutant IS office, the
sergeant majors office, a room for
clerks, a room for records, a library
or school room, postoffiee and tele-
phone room, and lavatories. The sec
ond story viii have a room for sum
mary court, room for courts martial,
a dressinr and cloak room, and also a
large assembly hall 5Ox3O. The second
story porch of this building will be
entirely enclosed in fine wire screens.
There will be two quarters for cap
tains. Each will be two stories high
and alike in all particulars. The first
floor will contain hall, parlor,
large dining room, and a library, all of
which can be thrown open and used as
one room on social occasions. On the
first floor there will also be pantry,
kitchen, with servant IS room and bath
detached from the main building by
an open porch. The first story of these
residences will have a porch across its

but found that there were demands upon
his time that compelled him to indefi-
nitely postpone the rest he contem-
plated. He then arranged to take a
hunting trip as diversion and dream
of a few weeks quail and deer shooting
in Virginia. The republican leaders,
however, had other plans such as jubilee
dinners and meetings at which he was
expected to be present. AS national
chairman he could not decline these en-
TREATMENTS, and again his programme
of rest was interfered with.
Mr. Cortelyou takes everything philo-
sophically. and lives on the hope OF some
time getting away from political wor-
ries and really enjoying period Of rest.
Such an experience win be rather odd
for him, as since 1897, when he became
assistant secretary to President McKin-
ley, and year later secretary, he has
had very little opportunity of enjoying
the recreation and rest which ordinary
mortals account as necessary. He has
been in the habit of devoting from Is
to Is hours every day to his work. That
application did not seem to have any
effect upon him. for he would show up
at the white house at nine o'clock in the
morning as fresh and energetic ~
though he had retired at nine In the
evening, instead OF two hours after mid
night. The long strain, however, is tell
ing even on Mr.. Cortelyou, and the ire
mendous work he performed during the
late campaign has added five or ten
years to his age.
II Chairman Cortelyou can get away
he will either go to the West Indies or
Europe, and remain there until the 4th
Of March. He will then enter Presi-
dent Roosevelt's cabinet as postmaster
general. II he desires to indulge his APP
petite for work, he will not be disap-
pointed In that position. OF all the
heads of departments in Washington
the postmaster general is the busiest
and, IL so inclined, can put in more hours
OF work than any Of his colleagues.

~ tho death of Senator Hoar vim -
alIed hy To designation OF Senator Or
vile FL Platt, Of Connecticut Mr.
Piatt has for many years been the rank
ing member next to the chairman on
this committee. and his prominent
qualifications for the craftsmanship is
recognized by everyone. He is one Of
the solid, conservative and able states
men whose record is absolutely clear and
OF the highest grade. He is not one OF
the orators Of the senate, and does not
trouble that body with many lengthy
speeches. When he does make an ad-
dress. 1t is full Of meat and not a lawyer
in the body leaves the chamber during
its delivery.
Mr.. Platt Is known internationally as
the author Of the "Platt amendment"
which has been incorporated in the or
ganic law of the republic of Cuba and
which virtually gives the United States
protectorate over the island. It per-
mits the United States to prevent Cuba
from swapping herself In debt, and pre-
vents her forming an alliance with any
other foreign power. The Connecticut
senator has been chairman of the COM
mittee on Cuban relations, but as most
OF the important legislation concerning
the relations between this country and
Cuba has been accomplished, the posi-
ton Of chairman of the committee on
the judiciary will be more commensurate
with his ability and experience.
Senator Platt is typical New Eng
lander, tall, angular and cold on the ex.
terror. He is a warm-hearted gentle
man, however, to those who have pene-
trated his New England reserve. He
is fisherman and hunter of note, and
has lodge in the Adirondacks to which
he retires every year to indulge in his
favorite recreation and rest from the
grind of senatorial duties.
