that the strike is practically at an end,

On the other hand President H. b.

AMERICANS
HELPING JAPS
THOUGHT TO BE IN A LEAGUE TO
AID IN. SEIZURE OF KAMCHAT-
KA ISLAND FROM RUSSIA.

KABARAVSK, Russia, Jan. 4-Sil-
nitzky, the Russian official who organ
lied the defense of Kamchatka, and
owing to an ineXplicable blunder was
arrested by order of the late Minister
of the Interior Won Plehve, has just ar
rived here after six months journey
through Yakutsk. He says Japanese
and American pirates laid covetous
eyes on Kamchatka at the very begin
ming of the war, but that the popula-
ton, though a mere handful, beat off
all attacks, burned many Japanese
schooners, annihilated landing party
and captured the Mikado's emissary.
A Russian named Baron Bruggers,
who is a director of the sealing indus
try, arrived at Kamchatka aboard an
American steamship and spread pessi-
mistic tales of Russian reverses. The
inhabitants, greatly incensed, refused
to believe his reports and resolved to
defend their territory if hostile war
ships appeared and If it became neces-
sary emulate Duokhivsky's example
and burn the city of PetropavlOvsk, re-
tire to an island and wage a guerilla
warfare.
Grebnitzky, the official in charge of
the Commander Islands, arrived about
that time and insisted that the vOlun-
teer companies be disbanded and ow-
ing to an explicable blunder Silnitzky
and his assistants were compelled to
hand over the management of KAN
chatka TO Grebnitzky
Silnitzky says the work of the Ameri-
can steamship Mineola was extremely
suspicious He hints that light is be-
ginning to be thrown upon a conspira-
cy against Russia sealing interests in
Kamchatka.

A BEEF WAR
IN WAILUKU
A NEW MARKET STARTS AND
1872 CENTS.

WAILUKU, January H.-In all like
lihood there will be meat war in Wal
luku. w. T. Robinson and several
others having cattle to dispose of, find
it most practicable to dispose of their
stock by establishing another meat
market in Waikiki. They have conse-
quently, commenced operations this
morning, cutting the price of meat
down to 1919 cents per pound, whereas
the prevailing price of choice cuts has
been 16 cents. The graziers who have
contracted are bound according to the
terms of their contract to meet any
and all competition, by cutting the
price of meat down, and also if possible
to prevent the establishment of any
other market. Now that another mar
ket has commenced operations, slashing
in the price of meat is expected, which
of course will in no way be objected to
by the customers of either market.

LINCOLN, Neb., Jan. 2.-"Union
hours for monkeys" is the cry of Lin
coin women right now, and the down
ltrodden helper of the Italian and his
organ may at last have its hours of la
Dor limited. In this city nine hours
constitute a working day for a man,
but the street monkeys have secured
such champions that a bill is to be in
troduced into the State Legislature re-
ducing the hours of work for monkeys
to only six.
A number of Lincoln women have
gathered statistics concerning the num-
Der of hours the ordinary Italian and
his ''monk" work and, after consult
ing the statutes, have decided that the
present system is cruelty to the animal
They have secured the assistance of an
attorney and have drafted a bill MAX
ing it an offense to use a monkey for
street exhibition purposes for more

OUTFIT-BUT IS THROUGH.

SAN FRANCISCO, January 3.-News
comes from the stranded stars of the
Kolb & Dill Company in Australia that
the "angel" will be sued when they
have worked their way home across the
Pacific.
The "angel is Captain W. f. Mighell
of the California Navigation Company,
in this city. A week ago he returned
from the Antipodes, leaving the O'Far-
rell-street travesty stars forlorn after
sinking $4,000 in the effort to please
Australia. Since then stories of the
financial smash of Kolb & Dill have
crossed the water
Maude Amber writes from Sydney
that she left the troupe because Man
ager James failed to pay her salary,
and then she adds:
"Other members of the company are
suing for their fares home and salary
due them, while other intend suing the
hacker Of the show upon their return
to San Francisco"
Nobody can sue me-" said Captain
! Mighell, comfortably this morning. II
had no contract with the company.

Manager James. and / may have lost
money, but that is my private business
was not bound i'm any way to pay
salaries and any suits would have tc
be filed against the manager.

PROSSER BACK
FROM kauai
FIFTY ONE CONVICTIONS OUT OF
A LIST OF FIFTY-TWO CASES
MANY PLEAS OF GUILTY.

When Assistant Attorney General
Prosser approaches the Isle of Kauai
the criminal population either gets into
it's hole and pulls the hole in after it
or else it gets a large sheet of paper,
a pen and some ink and prepares a con-
fession.
PrOsser returns from the criminal
term at Lihue, Kauai; with a string of
fifty one scalps dangling at his belt
and the Territory is the richer i'm fines
to the extent of $29SO. This record even
betters that made by Prosser at the
last term Only one of the accused
was found not guilty and that was in
am assault case.
Agreat many of the cases were end
ed by the defendants entering pleas of
guilty" said Prosser modestly this
morning, land Sheriff Coney deserves
great credit for this 1t may be re-
membered that at the last term Sheriff
Coney secured evidence which landed
four men i'm Jail for perjury. They
had given false testimony as to alibis
and he caught them. We secured con-
victions and the result of the lesson
has been most wholesome. False tes-
timony is at a discount on Kauai and
the witnesses are honest from a very
practical realization of the fact that
honesty sthe best policy if from no
higher motive"
No less than thirty of the fifty two
accused pleaded guilty to the offenses
with which they were charged. Thirty
four were concerned in riots, there were
two liquor cases, three assaults with
deadly weapons, one abduction, one
embezzlement and the others were
minor cases. The one accused who got
off was Deputy Sheriff Crowell, charg-
ed with common assault. There was
no evidence and the case would never
have been brought into court had the
accused been other than an officer the
fullest investigation therefore being al
lowed

OBJECTION IS RAISED.

The Hawaiian Live stock Breeders
Association met this morning i'm the
Judd building to hear the report Of
the executive committee regarding the
situation Of the stock market including
the proposal of the Metropolitan Meat
Market Company to cut the price Of
beef from 10 cents a pound to cents.
Owing to the fact that the executive
committee had been granted access to
the books of the concern it was decided
after some discussion. that the report
of the committee should not be made
public so the meeting this morning was
executive.
Some of the members afterwards eX-
pressed the opinion that such a position
was not the wiser course. The facts
and data secured from the Metropoli-
tan Company, it was claimed had been
withheld from the committee until a
demand by one of the directors of the

Ia London, which, though he is not an
Englishman, he confes SEES to be "the
only Iiace in the world
From London to Dawson City in the
Elond Ike is d far cry but that was his
direct trail and from Dawson he was
off again to st. Louis whence he
returned to Vancouver ana then took
the Aorangi for Hawaii.
Il had never expected to be 50 taken
with a place as 1 was with Hawaii"
he said this morning. when L think
of sitting here in this balmy atmos-
phere surrounded by palms and cocoa
nut trees, going in swimming in that
glorious surf at Waikiki and drinking
iced drink in order to mellow the tropic
warmth my thoughts fly back to dozens
of old friends UP in the Klondike. 1t
is about SO degrees below zero up there
now and there is one thing certain that
is that they will not be looking for ice
for their drinks. Possibly this con-
tinuous round of balminess may pail
after awhile but 1 find it more than
pleasant. 1 am going to see all that
there is to be seen in the islands and
if honest appreciation of a place will
help send others here l will do a little
promotion work on my own account"
At present the globe-t rotter is not
trotting at a very rapid gait as he is
nursing a sore foot. He says that he
hurt it by making a mad dash to get
on the Aorangi as she was leaving the
wharf at Victoria, having gone ashore
to get a bottle of soothing syrup for a
sick baby This explanation may safe
ly be regarded a some of Wilkinson's
greatest achievements.

WIRELESS PICKED
UP NEW ORLEANS
VESSEL REPORTED AT $3.50 THIS
ARRIVE THIS AFTERNOON.

Wireless communication with the
cruiser New Orleans was secured this
morning by the BARRIERS Point wire
less station. There had been outside
disturbances noticed by the operator
during the morning but not until about
$3.50 o'clock was any definite message
received. The message from the cruis-
CT simply announced that the vessel
would arrive at Honolulu at , O'Clock
this afternoon and asked that the mail
for the vessel be ready.
This message was not addressed to
any body i'm particular, but was evil
IDENTIFY intended for the naval station,
so it was sent to Captain Lyon, the
cOmmandant.
The New Orleans operator evidently
desired to communicate further this
morning, but the BARRIERS Point oper-
ator was busy sending commercial
messages to Lahaina, so did not stop
the private business. The first mes
sage from the New Orleans did not
state the distance that she was from
Oahu, but estimating her speed at
about 10 knots an hour, she was then
about As miles distant. The vessel is
to begin coaling tomorrow preparatory
to resuming her voyage to the main
land. She is from Midway, Guam and
Manila.
The wireless apparatus Of the vessel
is to be left ashore for the equipment
of the local station that is to be estab-
lished on this island. Captain Niback
has been conducting negotiations for
a site for the station, but the matter
has not been definitely settled, so the
plant will probably not be established
at once.

all of the plaintiffs exceptions to the
