or SYSTEM
BY THE AUDITOR
DEMANDS AGAINST TERRITORY
MUST HEREAFTER BE SENT TO
THE AUDITOR, RECEIPTED.

Auditor Fisher has changed the sys-
tenn of issuing warrants which has
been in vogue in the past, for creditors
of the Territory doing business on the
Island of Oahu He has adopted the
system for this Island which has been
in vogue for the other Islands for a
long time.
Formerly persons on this Island hav-
ing demands against the Territory
sent their bills, unreceipted, to the
Auditor, and later recepted their bills
on receiving the warrant.
Hereafter persons having demands
are requested to send their bills re-
ceipted to the various departments and
they will get their warrants through
the mail. Auditor Fisher has sent out
the following notice and explanation in
regard to the change:
ITO secure prompt payment of your
claims against. the Territory, receipt
your vouchers before sending them to
the different departments at the end
of each month and warrants will be
mailed to your address Immediately on
being drawn.
TN complying with the above, no risk
is involved as the receipt is but for a
warrant only, which is drawn to your
order and can not be paid until prop
erly endorsed"

Blanket
Warrants
Illegal
JUDGE ROBINSON SAYS SUPER
VISORS HAVE NO RIGHT TO
ISSUE THEM.

Judge Robinson this morning gave
his expected decision against blanket
warrants. As stated when the last
hearing of the McClanahan-Tren case
was before him, the judge at that time
delayed a formal ruling because An
drew Adams was not a party to the
suit but Robinson clearly indicated
what his ruling would be. This morn
ing an appearance of Adams was filed,
by Mechanism, and the court gave a
decision.
The judge ordered that permanent
injunction issue, to stop Trent from
paying the $141 to Adams, for which a
warrant was issued. Trent had once
refused it anyhow, and the County At
torney advised him not to pay it, so
that the decision will not have any
practical effect. 1t will be appealed,
however, and will thus form test
case as to blanket warrants. Judge
Robinson said he would sign a decree
setting forth his reasons for the deci-
sion. THE Board of Supervisors has
no authority to direct the Auditor to
issue a so-called blanket warrant" he
said. ut has no authority to issue to
any one person a warrant for sums due
to half a dozen other persons, for liza
bilities accruing at various and sundry
times not set forth in the warrant"
Judge Whiting appeared for Trent
and noted an appeal.

LOAN EXHIBIT
FOR KINDERGARTENS
COMMITTEE MEETS THIS MORN
ING AND PLANS SUCH AN AT
FAIR TO RAISE MUCH NEEDED
MONEY.

The committee appointed at a recent
meeting of the Board of Supervisors Of
the Free Kindergarten Association to
plan some sort of an affair to raise
money which is very much needed by
the Kindergartens, met yesterday
at the Y, w. c. A. The committee con-
sists of Mrs. l.. l.. McCandless, Miss
Frances Lawrence, Miss Parke, and
Mrs. w. w. Hall
The form of the affair to be arranged
is an art loan exhibit, 1t is intended
to secure the loan of art articles re-
preventative of different countries and
different epochs. For instance there
win be art representative of England,
of Germany of Hawaii and of other
countries.
The details have not all been worked
out yet but it is hoped to secure an
interesting and valuable exhibit.
1t is intended to hold the exhibit
about a week before Thanksgiving
There will be other meetings of the
committee at which the plans will be
worked out more in detail

now that we have Hawaii and the
Philippines"
Then would you advocate the CIV
ing up of the Philippines and Hawaii?'
he was asked.
THAT question is not worth dis
cussing," he replied. We cannot give
them up now, to whom could we give
them? But the idea of fortifying Ha-
wall here, thousands of miles from the
coast of America is to my mind an
absurdity. The question of giving up
Hawaii, and the Philippines, is as 1
say no longer open, it has been decided.
We are i'm power and the only question
before us is as to how that power IL
to be exercised.
Whenever there is a conquest" con-
tinued the orator from New York two
elements will at once begin to work
within the conquering party. one of
these viii work for plunder and the
other for the good of the conquered.
This is amply demonstrated in the
Philippines. I think that President
Roosevelt and Mr.. Taft are honestly
DESTROYS of working for the good of
the islands and for the benefit of the
Filipinos, that their every wish is to
administer the government fairly and
squarely.
BUT don't believe that they will
be allowed to do so.
''The plundering element in their
party is too strong. There is plumber
all along the line. The most recent
example is the extension of the coast
wise shipping laws to the Philippines.
This is simply another case of plumber
ing the people for the benefit of a few.
Taft's attempt to reduce the tariff
failed utterly. That was a scheme Of
benevolence but like most schemes Of
benevolence, it never really got further
than discussion. So, 1 am afraid, it
will be to the end of the chapter.
What is to be done about it? Well
what can we do? Speaking for my
self l can only say that in general
terms, I shall continue to support every
scheme of benevolence and to resist
every scheme of plumber. That is
about all that one individual can do
Speaking of Hawaii in particular
Congressman Cochran reiterated his
belief that the possession of these ISL
ands was a source of weakness rather
than of strength to the United States
He had not, he admitted, had time to
make a study of conditions here but
hoped to have the opportunity of do
ing SO later.

William Bourke Cochran, United
States congressman from New York
City, was among the passengers on
the America Maru which arrived last
evening. He is on his way home
after trip round the world, having
incidentally Joined the Taft party at
Yokohama and accompanied that ag-
gregation of notables to Manila.
The Congressman spent last evening
at the Moana Hotel and there he was
found ythe Star this morning just as
he was about to leave on an automobile
trip to the Pail.
Il have had a most delightful trip
he said land not only has it been de-
lightful but it has been intensely in
structive, l came round by way of
Europe and then through the Suez
canal. / met the Taft party i'm Japan
and continued with the party to the
Philippines
The views which Congressman Cock
ran holds on expansion are pretty well
known so that an intel est in the mans
career is naturally awakened when his
ideas are discussed. Born in Ireland
in 1854, he was educated at home and
in France He went to America in
1871 and for a time was principal of a
public school. He became a lawyer
and his wonderful ability as a speaker
took him to the front as soon as he
identified himself with the Democratic
party. At the conventions of 1884 and
1892 he made noteworthy speeches, OPP
posing the nomination of Grover Cleve-
land. During the silver campaign he
left the Democratic party ana stump
ed for Mckinley on the gold platform,
but in 1900 he returned to the Demo-
Gratis on the anti-imperialism issue and
worked for Bryan.
The Congressman's personality is
distinctly pleasing, in fact it is pretty
safe to say that he owes good deal of
! his success to his easy and polished
manner. He bears his fifty-one years
well for he looks much younger. His
face is strong and his firm mouth is a
| pretty good indication of the will power
| which he is known to possess.
Yes, 1 have pretty decided views on
the matter of expansion" he said. 81
think it has been a mistake all the
way through. Before we had any out
lying possessions, we had nothing that
anyone else wanted, and we wanted
nothing that anyone else had. We were
| self contained, our boundaries were
unassailable. Things are different

MAY Be ONE
:. OF "QUEER" GANG
THE PECULIAR CONDUCT OF A
MAN AT FAvORITE GROTTO THIS
MORNING AROUsES SUSPICION.

1T is not unlikely for something that
occurred this morning that one, if not
more, of the alleged passers of bogus
money, escaped from the transport
Sherman and is in Honolulu awaiting a
chance to elude the federal officers. Six
men were arrested on the transport
yesterday by the United States au-
thorities on charges of passing counter
felt money, and it is not improbable
that a seventh man may have eluded
capture.
Shortly after midnight a man about
5 feet IL inches in height entered the
Favorite GrottO, corner of Bethel and
Hotel streets, and asked for cork
screw and some sandwiches. He wore
a blue coat and trousers, but had on
besides only an undershirt and a pair
of shoes. He appeared to be quite ex-
cited and without being asked any
questions by anybody in the grotto
volunteered the information that he
was an officer of the transport Sher-
man that had departed the afternoon
before for San Francisco, leaving him
behind. He said that he was going to
get away TO san ffanclScO by the >.
S. America Maru. No attempt was
made to question the man and he left
the place, getting into a hack and driv-
ing away.
The people who were in the grotto at
the time have the theory that the man
was in some way mixed up with the
gang that are charged with passing
counterfeit bills. The man who was in
the grotto is said to have been with
members of the crowd who We're later
arrested by the federal authorities The
theory advanced is that he heard that
the federal authorities were arresting
members of the crowd on the Sherman
and that he, deeming discretion the bet
ter part of valor, remained away from
the ship, not wishing to take any
chances of being nabbed aboard or else
being caught in San Francisco. He is
described as a rather thinly built man,
with curly hair and being smooth
shaven.

as to which had the right to appoint
the police force. Sheriff Keolanui
claimed the right under the law, sub
ject to confirmation by the Board, and
at once proceeded to appoint his force.
He failed to reappoint many men who
had been on the force up to the time
of the change of government. The
Board of Supervisors at once took issue
claiming the right and power to APP
point and by a blanket resolution APP
pointed all who had been on the force
when the county government act went
into effect. The Sheriff refused to re-
cognize these appointments and in
some cases there We're collisions be-
tween the two sets of officials.
The Board of Supervisors adopted an
ordinance declaring that no person
should have the right to represent him
self as a police officer or to exercise
the duties of a police officer unless APP
pointed by the Board of Supervisors,
and having "A commission issued by the
Board and signed by the County Clerk.
This ordinance Sheriff Keolanui ignor-
ed.
The Board of Supervisors refused to
approve the payrOlls presented by the
Sheriff, and directed warrants to be
issued to those members of the police
force who had been appointed by it.
Auditor Mcguire, acting on the adj
vice of County Attorney Williams, re-
fused to issue warrants for the pay of
the Board of Supervisors appointees,
holding with the County Attorney and
the Sheriff that the power of appoint
ment was with the sheriff. Manda-
mus proceedings were thereupon begun
by the Board to compel the auditor to
issue these warrants, and an appro-
priation of $3.50 was made to meet the
expenses of the proceeding
Judge Parsons has now refused the
mandamus thus unfolding the conten-
tion of the sheriff, and throwing down
the claim Of the supervisors.

Helen A. Holt as guardian of the

filed a petition in the circuit court for
permission to sell real estate owned by
them. The petition set forth that the
estate owned $4,000 at the time of
Hollis death, but that this has been re-
duced to $4,000. It has been necessary
to incur debt to educate five heirs and
heiresses, and the court was therefore
asked to allow a sale of real estate.
Judge Robinson signed an order al
lowing the sale.

John Ena a present when it changed

1t is claimed that the new policy which
the company gave him, in accordance

DIFFERENTIAL TO GULF.
Traffic Men Will Meet Today al

Chicago. Traffic officials of the
Gulf railroads will meet to decide how
much lower the export rates on corn
from Omaha to the Gulf shall be than
those to Atlantic ports.
At meeting of executive officers
today the Eastern roads urged their
Western connections to reduce rates
to prevent the Gulf lines from having
differential or lower rate by more
than three cents. 1t was decided that
no further cuts should be m.de to
the Atlantic ports until the meeting
in St. Louis tomorrow. The lowest
published rate from Omaha to the
Gulf on corn for export is eleven
cents per 100 pounds by the Missouri
Pacific. The Chicago, Burlington and
Quincy has made through rate of
thirteen cents from Omaha to Balti-
more.
