RUPTURE AFFECTS BUSINESS
President of Hawaii Fears Effect of
Fight Between Planters and
SpreckeIs

"The rupture between the Hawaiian
sugar planters and the Spreckels in
terests will have a disastrous effect
on the business in the islands if it
is carried to the extreme" said E. e.
Richards of Hilo, Hawaii, yesterday,
Mr.. Richards, who is returning to the
islands after a visit east. is a wealthy
business man of Hilo and a pioneer
resident on the island.
80 many of the commercial enter
prises there" he continued "are inti-
mately bound with the sugar industry
that any blow delivered it would have
a harmful reaction on them. 1 think
the planters are making a mistake
They will realize it, too, if they at
tempt to run an Independent refinery.
They will have to go farther for their
raw material and will experience many
obstacles in getting under way, not to
speak of the numerous difficulties
which will have to be surmounted be-
fore they can get on a paying basis.
While I am not familiar with the re-
cent developments in the controversy,
l think the points involved in the dis
pute between the growers and refining
interests controlled by Spreckels are
the same as those involved when the
trouble first arose years ago. I am of
the opinion that the grievances will not
stand investigation"

ANOTHER RECALL
MOVEMENT DEAD
SOUTH PARK COMMITTEE GIVES
UP FIGHT
No Support Given Project to Gust
Mayor McAIeer and Huntington
Interests Are Allied on
Other Side

Failing to secure the corporation OF
the Huntington attorneys and finding
that the tension on the Huntington
purse strings will not be loosened to
provide the wherewithal, the McAleeI
''recallers" have about concluded that
they are down and out, and thus the
second recall bomb that has been
touched off during the last month ends
with sputter and fizzle. The fact that
the car wheels will probably be turning
on South Park avenue before the day
is over robs the recall movement of its
chief incentive.
According to the present program
another meeting will be held this even
ing, when the committee of twenty-five
will talk over the situation and try to
arrive at some definite conclusion.
With no support from the Huntington
interests, however, it is not likely that
the movement will be carried any
further.
w. e. Dunn, one of the legal advisers
of the Huntington interests, stated yes
terday that subcommittee from the
committee of twenty had called on him
and asked the support of his clients in
pushing the movement for the recall
of the mayor. Mr.. Dunn told the COM
nittee, in no uncertain terms, that not
only would no financial or legal aid be
given to the proposition but that should
such steps be taken the Huntington in
terests would throw all their influence
on the other side.
Mr.. Dunn is opposed to the recall on
general principles, and so stated to the
members of the committee. He called
it a dangerous instrument to put into
the hands Of a few disgruntled voters,
hn 70 y,
unsettled state of affairs in politics al
any moment by securing a certain num-
Der of signatures to q petition.
T. w. Williams, chairman of the COM
mittee of twenty-five, expressed sur
prise when he learned that some MEM
bers Of his committee had asked the
Huntington people for support, ard
stated that the entire recall movement
was really joke from the first.
eff any members of our committee
called on Mr.. Dunn for any such pur-
pose it was entirely without the knowi-
edge of the chair or the official sanction
of The committee" said Mr.. Williams.
"The recall has not really been consid-
cred seriously from the first I men
toned it in my speech last Saturday
evening and made it part of the reso-
luton that was passed at that time, bat
l. old not Inlnh lHeu lndl IL WOuIu D'
taken seriously. Some of the members
of the committee have been talking
"recall" pretty strongly in an effort to
arouse public sympathy.
1.-THE statement was circulated that
Huntington was willing to put up $780,,
900 to assist in the recall, but I felt
from the first that such talk was all
nonsense. We can say positively that
no further efforts will be made to recall
Mayor McAleer by the committee which
I represent"

AIMS TO CONTROL ALL
EXPLOSIVE SHIPMENTS
RAILWAY TRAFFIC MANAGERS
SEE DANGER
Various Lines Will Enforce Strict Rule
Regarding Customary Plan of Bill
Ing Dynamite as Ordinary Mer-
chandise to Avoid High Rates
By Associated Press.

CHICAGO, Oct. 25.-Stringent rules
regarding the shipment of explosives
will be enforced by all the railroads
next year, as the result of recommen
dations made yesterday by a special
committee of the American Railway
association now in session here.
Evidence secured by the committee
showed that S460OO,0O0 pounds Of ex
plosives are manufactured annually
in the United States, nearly all of
which is transported by the railroads.
The numerous accidents which have
happened in the handling of explosives
by railroads is said to be due to the
fact that the material was not properly
packed and marked.
A large amount of explosive stuff has
been billed as ordinary merchandise, it
is alleged, to Gu tdown freight ex-
penses, the rate on explosives being
double the rate on first-class freight.
The standing committee of the rs
sociation on train rules made a rec
ommendation that all the railroads
should adopt what is known as the
"hoop" system of handing orders to
the engineers regarding the movements
of other trains.
This system is in use on the Erie
and several other roads and obviates
the necessity of stopping trains in order
to deliver orders.

SAN BERNARDINO, Oct. 25.-W. N.
Hoagland, a prominent business man
of this city, is the central figure in
strange romance, as a result of which
he will, when he returns from trip
to Indiana, be known as William M.
Brown instead of his former name, and
he will be accompanied here by his
father, the sons existence being en-
tirely unknown to the father until
couple of weeks ago
Hoagland is manager for the Union
Ice company. About three weeks ago,
with his wife, he left for Indiana, an
nouncing that it was a business trip.
A few days ago in the little village of
Worthington, Ind, Hoagland walked
up in front of gray-haired Alex. Brown,
a Civil War veteran, seated in front of
a dry goods store, and addressed him
as father"
The elder Brown was nonplused for
the moment but an interview fol-
lowed which shed light on the situa-
ton.
Many years ago, when the elder
Brown was young man, he contracted
a clandestine marriage with Nesta
Hoagland. Soon after the girls parents
moved from the locality and took their
daughter with them.
LdIeI the SUI N6S Dol II anu 'ii0 P0i
ents told the daughter that her hus-
band, Brown, had been killed. The
son took the Hoagland family name,
but before his mother died young
Hoagland's mother told him that his
father was Alex Brown. She married
a second time before her death.
Hoagland has since been tracing up
his father and recently located him,
and learning that he was becoming an
old man and was living alone, he deter
mined to go to him, make himself
known and give the old man home
the balance of his life.
Brown has formally adopted his son
under the laws of Indiana to avoid any
possible question from other heirs to
his property, which is considerable.
Hoagland, or Brown as he is now
known, with his wife and father, will
return in a few days.

AKRON, o., Oct. 25.-Disappointmen
in a love affair is the only cause that
Mrs. George Clark can give for the
suicide of her daughter, May Jeanette
Galley, in New York, but Mrs. Clark

"She expected to marry Jack as
soon as she could get a divorce from

would not live with Pitzer because
she said he had another favorite and
she was afraid of the woman for whom
PitZer showed the most love.
