DRAGGED ABOARD SHIP
AND SOUNDLY BEATEN
japanese Is Thought to Be
aStowaWay and Suffers
Ill Treatment.

u. Hara, a Japanese who arrived at
this port on the Mongolia. relates an
experience that sounds like some old
tale of the sea. He was dragged aboard
against his will. beaten, charged for
his passage to America, then treated
kindly after the discovery was made
that he was not a suspected stowaway.
but an unfortunate visitor aboard
ship.
When the Mongolia arrived 1T Homo
lulu from the Orient there were sew
eral stowaways on board. At Homo
lulu when the health officers came on
board every passenger of the Mon
golia was accounted for excepting one
stowaway The ship was searched for
two hours for this missing stowaway,
Mongolia was leaving Honolulu Jap
anese- rushed to- the ships side, jumped
overheard and struck out for shore. A
pilot-boat crew in the vicinity saw the
incident, and, thinking the Japanese
was trying to desert from the Mon
goIia, gave chase to the swimmer,
caught him ana took him alongside the
Mongolia, where he was dragged on
board.
The man protested vigorously, and
said he did not belong to the ship. He
said he was only a visitor on board,
and that when he saw the steamship
was under way he jumped overheard
and was trying to swim ashore. When
he was landed on the ship Mate An
drew Dixon, who. inistook him for the
hidden stowaway. dealt him a blow. on
the head that nearly felled him to the
deck. He was then taken below and
locked up. In the meantime the stow
away came out from his hiding place.
and general confusion ensued. u Hara
was released. He put up $50 cash for
his fare in the Storage He says he
was treated very kindly after 1t was
discovered who he was.

Mr.. Barrett to Be Heard.

Hon. William A. Jones, congressman
from the First district, will arrive in
the city this morning and tonight he
will be the principal speaker ut the
first of two general rallies to be held
by the local Democrats during the
present campaign. Mr.. Jones will
make his headquarters at Hotel War
wick and will spend most of the day
seeing old friends and making new
ones.
The meeting tonight will be held at
the Casino theater, as it will be i'm
possible to get the Academy of Music
for the occasion. Attorney Lonis c.
Phillips, chairman of the city Demo.
cratic committee, will preside and
Col. Marquis Jones will introduce the
distinguished visitor. Attorney W. T..
Barrett, Democratic nominee for the
House of Delegates from this city.
will speak just before Mr.. Jones is in.
troduced.
All arrangements for the meeting
have been completed by the sub.com-
mittee in charge. Chairman Phillips
said last night that although the
Democrats were so thoroughly imbuei
with the idea that they could carry
the city with ease that they have ex.
hibited practically no interest in the
