Lost Gems. But Gets Insurance.

Philadelphia. July 25.--When Fred
erick Triplett, a former policeman, re-
turned to Camden after a vacation,
and investigated a fire which had dam
aged his home, S13 Central avenue, on
Wednesday, he discovered that a dia-
mond shirt stud, valued at $50, and q
few small trinkets had been stolen.
He believes that after the house was
looted the thieves caused the blaze to
hide their work. Triplett was sur
prised to find that an insurance policy,
which he supposed had run out, is
still in force.

ANDREWS TALKS
TO LIQUOR MEN.
u1LO WHOLESALERS HAVE A
CONFERENCE WITH THE SHEER
IFF on ILLICIT SELLING.

HILO. Dec. 27-Under directions from
Governor Carter, Sheriff Andrews held
a conference yesterday morning in his
office with the representatives of the
various wholesale liquor houses in Hilo
with reference to illicit liquor selling.
Governor Carter has announced that
the wholesaler is responsible for the
prevalence of illicit dealing and he
has taken a stand that licenses Of
wholesale houses will not be renewed
where 1t appears that the jobber is
making sales to unlicensed dealers.
The object of the NEE ting in the Sher-
ifs office was to learn the ideas of the
local liquor men concerning the alleged
violations of the law.
Those who attended were e. II. Aus
tin, of w. G. Peacock & Co.; j. A. NJ.
Osorio and Victor Hurd of Hoffschlae-
ger & So; j. S. Canario and f. Sousa
of Hilo Wine and Liquor CO., and j. G.
Serrao of the Serrao Liquor Co., Ltd.
1t is claimed by the liquor men that
it is none of their business as to the
line of business in which their patrons
are engaged and they need not inquire
for what purpose the purchaser of u
case of liquor buys it. They assert that
the opposition of the planters to sa-
looms on or near plantations is in a
large measure the cause of the Illicit
business. Sheriff Andrews was dispos-
ed to take a liberal view of the situa-
ton, and agreed if the same privilege
be accorded the Territory to inspect
books as is done by the United States
Internal Revenue office he would be in
favor of approving the REVIVAL of
wholesale licenses that are now held
up. Licenses have been refused to the
! Japanese Wine & Liquor Co., Hilo, and
to w. c. Peacock & Co. for their branch
houses at Kau and Honokaa. 1t is ex-
pected that the Legislature will be call
ed upon to enact special legislation up
on the subject
| Peacock & Co. have closed their
( branch stores pending the decision of
! Governor Carter, and are willing to
cooperate with the Territory in the en-
forcement of the law in every reason
able manner. This is the stand taken
/ by the representatives of the various
wholesale houses represented.-Hilo
