Is contract with the Union Stock Yards

After going into the matter In detail and
reviewing the contract from the date OF

concludes as follows:
The contract provides that the city will
reimburse the stock yards one-half of it's
outlay for construction, either by cash or
bonds as the parties may agree upon. ana
shall repay the outlay when called upon
by the stock yards company. We are OF

CHANGES BY THE BURLINGTON
Important ReVisiOns Made in Time
Table for Trains West of
Missouri River.

The Burlington has announced several
important changes in the time card for
the running Of trains west of the river.
The most important one, affecting the peo-
pie OF Omaha, is that of No. S, which
formerly left Omaha at $50 each morning
for Lincoln. This train will leave Omaha
at s:l5, thus giving travelling men a better
start on their days work and also will
permit lawyers from Omaha to reach Lin
coin in better time to appear before the
supreme court. These changes are all to
be effective on and after December 3.
Passengers from the Black Hills and in
termediate points will reach Omaha at 3
o'clock in the afternoon instead of 6
O'Clock as formerly. This will give pas
sengers going on east five hours in Omaha
and passengers who wish to return the
same day will have eight hours in Omaha.
The other changes affect lines all over
the state and are here given:
No u will leave McCook earlier No

nA|sEs ITS RATES

The Inter-Island Telegraph Company
has raised its rates from ten cents to
fifteen cents a word, its subsidy from
the Territory ceasing September 30th
And from this time on the government,
instead of having a frank, must pay
the tolls on all its messages.
The contract entered into by the Ter
ritory with the wireless company was
the result of the act approved April 2s,
1908, by Governor Dole, appropriating
$24, 900 to be paid in $1,000 instalments
monthly for two years following the es-
tablishment of the Kauai station and
the fixing of other stations so as to as
sure efficient service.
Prior to this the Inter-Island COM
pany, after many troubles, had estab-
lished service for which twenty cents
a word was charged.
One of the conditions of the govern
ment subsidy was that the rate per
word should be ten cents, with mini
mum message rate Of 81. Territorial
business was franked
On October 1st at the expiration of
the contract and the subsidy the COM
pany raised rates all around by fifty
per cent. and informed the Territorial
officers that hereafter all government
business will be charged at the fifteen
cent rate.

FORMER T0NNSMAN
fLLTREATs FAMILY

+. The Following from the Examiner Of
September 16 will be of interest to a
number of local people:
George e. whitelock. a cruer husband
and father. was sent to the County Jail
for one year yesterday by Police Judge
Morgan on charges Of battery and fall
ure to provide for minor child.
Whitelock lived at 144 IL clara
street. The testimony showed that he
had failed to provide his wife and little
children with the common necessarit s
of life and that he spent nearly all OF
his money for liquor.
1t was shown that on one occasi, n
Whitelock's little boy asked him for
money with which to buy loaf Of
bread. Whitelock answered the plea of
the hungry child by striking him with
his clenched hand. The mother, who
was nursing her baby interceded to
protect the boy from further punish
ment and Whitelock struck her and
knocked her down. The helpless baby
narrowly escaped serious injury.
George Whitelock and family lived
here two or three years ago. residing
on Vineyard street.
| He was then in the employ of the
Oahu Railway & Land co. and his
treatment Of his family while in Hoho-
lulu is said to have been most cruel.

OUR POLO
IS CLASSY

Mr.. Campbell Davidson, a polo on.
thusiast who has seen the game played
in England, India, South America and
elsewhere, has good word to say for
polo as played here and especially for
the ground on which it is played.
Mr.. Davidson saw the first game
played in the recent tournament be-
tween Oahu and Maui. Speaking Of
this contest and of the field at Moana-
lua, Davidson said to an Advertiser
man yesterday:
81 never in my life have seen a
ground where tens of thousands of peo-
pie can watch every move of game
in comfort. was greatly surprised to
hear that it was private ground and
consider Mr.. s. M. Damon a gentleman
of very great public spirit, The place
reminded me more of the Coliseum at
Rome than anything else.
'sTo tell the truth l did not expect
to see very high class polo played here.
To say that was impressed is to state
the fact but mildly.
"The Maui and Oahu teams played
sound polo. They have mighty little 10
learn about riding and nothing what
ever to learn about playing gentle
manly, sportsmanlike game.
"While the polo was not as fast as
that played in India, where they play
desperately, the game was far from
slow.
II look to see very many good polo
players reared in Moanalua's cradle
and am of the opinion that the game
has great future in Hawaii"
Mr.. Davidson, who came here from
China, leaves by the s. s. Coptic to.
day. He is general foreign inspector
of the Guardian Assurance Company of
London, and has been looking over the
local field.
OF his visit to the volcano he had the
following to say.
81 stayed speechless for al hour
when confronted by the wonderful
sight. 1t would pay one to come ten
times the distance I did, to see it.

wundenberg in the management Of the
Parker's affidavit filed in the partition
suit at Kailua. The issues We're ap-
parently different in that case, for Par
ker laid stress on the fact that Carter
had consulted him and Wundenberg on
all occasions. The witness modestly
disclaimed responsibility for Parker's
statements. but Kinney came back with
Wundenberg's own statement in an af-
fidavit that he endorsed all that
Parker had said, and the matter ended
in general discussion as to what "en-
dorse" might mean In that connection.
With regard to the negotiations for
the sale Of Humuula. the witness re-
iterated his statement that he was al
ways opposed. to Parker selling the
place, advising that 1t be Kept for Sam
Junior. Kinney had a long series of
letters from the witness to Aubrey at
the sheep station, referring to negotia-
tions with "Eben Low and others" as
possible purchasers. The witness ex-
planned that Parker was very anxious
to sell. and that under those circum-
stances he thongnt ttlt Ebtn Low
and young Sam, who was the 'others"
in question, might purchase. He de-
nied the testimony given by Sam, jun

APRIL GRAND
JURORS AMUSED

Members of the last April term grand
jury were laughing yesterday evening
because they had been served with sub
poenas to testify on the hearing of
motion to quash the indictment OF Ia
kada, or Takata, for murder. One Of
them told an Advertiser reporter that
the case did not come before the April
grand jury. He thought the indict-
ment was found at the January term
A reference to back files of the Ad-
vertiser shows that one Takata's in
dlctment for murder was holdover
from the year 1904. Mention OF his
arraignment is made In the first court
report OF 1905 before the January term
had been opened.

NO FAMINE FROM
ALAMEDA LOSS

M. A. Gonsalves Of M A. G. & Co.,
Ltd, said last night he did not think
the wreck of the Alameda would cause
any serious deprivation of food supplies
to Honolulu. Besides the usual fresh
fruits the steamer carried. which would
be somewhat missed, there might be
a slight shortage of butter until an
other steamer arrived. His house kept
standing orders with different firms
and in sending an answer to siAgle
inquiry If its goods were insured the
inquirer was requested to pass the same
word around to the others.
If the fruit on deck was put out Of
condition to forward by the substitute
freight carrier the consignors would
undoubtedly duplicate all standing or
ders, in the opinion Of Mr.. Gonsalves.
Consignments of fsh, being carried in
the hold. would probably be a total
loss. ~t
Mr.. Gonsalves thinks there is no
fear of a fruit famine in Honolulu
from the loss of one steamers supply.
for, besides some domestic fruit al
ways on the stands, many residents
have an abundant variety growing on
their home grounds He himself has
some magnificent Tokay grapes. be-
sides many other kinds of fruits and
sundry vegetables as good as the finest
imported.
