CURTIS TO
COMMAND
MONGOLIA
WELL KNOWN MASTER REPORT
ED TO BE SLATED TO SUCCEED
CAPT. PORTER OF MONGOLIA.

According to news brought by the S.
S. Alameda yesterday Captain Curtis,
who was formerly in command of the
schooner w. II. MarstOn and later in
the Pacific Mail service, is to be plac-
ed in command of the Pacific Mail S. S.
Mongolia succeeding Captain Porter.
Curtis will, therefore, it is stated, bring
the Mongolia out next trip.
Curtis is well known in Honolulu
where he has many friends. He was
master of the Marston for a number of
years. over three years ago he left
that vessel to accept the command of
the Pacific Mail S. S. Barracuda. He
had charge Of that vessel when she
was captured by the Japanese during
the recent war. The vessel was trying
to run tht Vladivostok blockade. Lat
er Curtis was given command of an
other Pacific Mail vessel. His rise from
the command of a windjammer TO that
of one of the biggest vessels of the Am
erican merchant marine within period
of less than four years, is exceptional.

MISSIONARY
GETS A CASE
is ADMITTED TO PRACTICE AND
IMMEDIATELY GIVEN CHANCE
TO WORK.

]. d. White, the Latter Day mission
airy who is also an attorney, was ad-
mitted to practice in the federal court
this morning, on motion of District At
torney Breckons. He was also imme-
diately assigned to defend a case and
it happened to be a bigamy case. 1t
is that of Ume SatO, a Japanese wo-
man.
Whites appointment was at the sug-
gestion of Breckons. The woman on
being arraigned said that she was with
out counsel and unable to hire counsel
Breckons suggested that White, as a
missionary of the church, was especially
fit to take up such a case and Judge
Dole promptly assigned the case to
White. The trial will probably take
place next week.

]. ALFRED
MAGOON
BUNCED UP

A personal encounter between Harry
Dawson and j. Alfred Magoon created
big sensation in town at two this
afternoon. Magoon was driven home
with a badly beaten up face, and is
said to have received a severe thrash
ing from Dawson.
The trouble, it is said, was over Along
estate matters, in which Magoon is
considerably interested. He called
upon Dawson, who is one Cf the colla-
teral heirs of the estate, and the matter
of the pending contest over the estate
was discussed. Magoon, according to
one account made a proposition to Da-
vison which the latter resented Ma
goon offered Dawson a document to
sign. Davisons rejection of the pro-
position was so emphatic as to be in
sulting and Magoon struck him. Eye
witnesses who saw the termination of
the difficulty state that Magoon was
badly bunged up. Dawson has a black
eye
There was a rush of people to the
Dawson dressmaking parlors, where
the trouble took place, when rumor got
busy about it. Dawson wore a piece
of beef steak over his left eye. He
declared that the trouble was a family
matttr and declined to discuss it.

M'CLANAHAN CHARGES
MOTLEY WITHLYING
ACCUSES MOTLEY WITH START
DISFRANCHISE HAWAIIANS.

Upon the Big Island some one start
ed the rumor that should +. b. Nc
Clanahan be elected to Congress that
he would see that the Hawaiians were
disfranchised. McClanahan in a speech
made at Waiakea charged. Charles Not
ley, the Home Rule nominee with first
telling the falsehood and later con-
fronted him with the fact. Following
are a few of McClanahans words on
the subject:
Il have learned since I spoke in Hilo
last Saturday night that Charles Not
ley the Home Rule candidate, was the
man who put into circulation the rumor
that if that haOle'-meaning myself
should be elected the HaNuians would
be disfranchised. 1 met Motley this
afternoon and taxed him with making
these statements. In the presence of
witnesses he denied absolutely that he
had made the remarks, but further evil
dence shows plainly that he did make
them despite his denials The charges
made by him are UNANIMOUSLY untrue in
every particular"
McClanahan is receivh.g g good recep-
tions throughout Hawaii and his ap-
pearance was the signal for politics to
begin and boil over He received a
large ovation at Hilo. In his speech he
confined himself almost entirely to the
Cuban question, upon which he is MAX
ing his fight,

There is a possibility that the band
will be relieved with money that was
given for the relief Of stricken San
Francisco and never used. There is
in the hands of the Treasurer of the
relief committee the sum Of $4,000 and
a portion of this may be used for the
relief of the band.
There was much discussion over the
condition of the band as reported by
Captain Berger in his communication
to the Board of Supervisors in town
this morning and many expressed the
opinion that the money should be sent
to them for their return if they are
unable to return otherwise.
1t was suggested that the fund in the
hands of the San Francisco Relief Com
mittee be used. Treasurer L. Tenny
Peck was called upon and he stated that
there was still $4,000 on hand.
1--WE have been awaiting the return
of Chairman c. NJ. Cooke before taking
any action towards the disposal of tho
fund and as he returned yesterday the
committee will now meet at the call Of
the Governor, probably within a week
or so. At that time it will be decided
Just where the balance of $4,000 will 60.
We are under instructions to send
it to the General Relief Committee in
San Francisco and shall do so unless
those instructions are altered.

ASKS DOLETO
BE MERCIFUL

Goo Akuna, the Chinese who has
three wives and % children, four of
them adopted, asked Judge Dole to be
easy on him this morning. when he APP
peared for sentence for unlawful CO.
habitation. Goo had pleaded guilty and
tried to hasten his case through, in or
der that his wives might not be sent
for as witnesses, from Maui, and he
told the court that he had a very large
family, and was kept hustling to sup
port them. He hoped the j"1ge would
not confne him long, if at q J., for it re-
quired hard work all the time to keep
the family supplied.
Judge Dole told Goo that he had COM
mitted a gross and fragrant violation
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1906-10-20

to be most materially increased during
next year. The Hawaiian sugar inter-
ests will naturally profit by. such a
condition.
But the general impression here
seemed to be this morning that until
more detailed advices had been re-
ceived, it was not safe to rely too much
on the Heralds news. Those of the
sugar people who were interviewed,
said that they considered the report
was likely to be exaggerated and while
undoubtedly, much damage had been
done the Cuban sugar crop, the des-
truction was hardly likely to prove so
extensive as the New York Herald dis
patch would indicate,
II. Hackfeld and Company who are
generally the first to receive important
information of interest to the Hawaiian
Islands had received no word up to
noon today Alexander & Baldwin,
Ltd, have received no word from their
New York agents.
The general sentiment seems to be
that it was impossible for absolutely
correct information on the score of
the damage to the sugar crop, to have
been secured by the Herald's correspon-
dent during the brief period following
the hurricane which started several
days ago. Inter-island communication
was undoubtedly broken and days will
undoubtedly elapse before the complete
details can be learned.
Further information is being awaited
with the greatest interest by local in
terests.

of American laws and customs. Not
only had he had two wives whom he
had married long ago. but he had de-
liberately taken another and lived with
her openly and notoriously, since an
neXation. "This is an open defiance
not only of the laws but of the senti-
ment of the country" said Judge Dole.
The court then imposed the sentence.
of three months in Jail and a fine of
$500. Through the interpreter, Goo pro-
tested again. 1t was very hard for him
to support his big family, he said. and
he hoped the court wouldn't be so Sc
we're. Judge Doles only reply was
that the prisoner should have thought
Of the consequences before.

News Of a very sensational character
regarding the sugar market was re-
ceived this morning by the Henry Wa
terhouse Trust Company, Ltd The
news conveyed the information that
the Cuban sugar crop had been des-
troyed. While the dispatch, which
came presumably from Edward Pol
litz of San Francisco, did not enter into
any further details regarding the dis
aster to Cuba the only presumption
that can be suggested is that the hur-
ricane that visited that island recent
ly caused the damage.
The dispatch reads as follows:
"San Francisco, October 20.
y HOS a. m.
ITO Waterhouse, Honolulu. ~
New York Herald reports Cuban
crops destroyed"
The Cuban sugar production last sea-
son was about 100000 tons. Accord
ing to advices from Willett and Grey,
the indications were that the new crop
for 1907 would exceed the former ones,
provided a sufficient number of laborers
could be secured, If the New York
Herald dispatch prove correct, then the
prospects for Cuba enjoying a season
of prosperity are over.
While there was naturally regret eX-
pressed over the terrible damage caus-
ed by the hurricane, nevertheless, the
news of the destruction of the crop
caused a certain amount of satisfaction
here for it was realized that with the
bulk of the sugar crop of Cuba destroy

'If the donors Of the fund would like
to see 1t used for the relief of the band
they would have to signify a willing
ness to that effect. In other words
they would have to recall their previous
instructions and issue new ones to US
which we will follow"
When George w Smith chairman
of the Board Of Supervisors, was told
of the proposal of the scheme he
thought that it would be a very good
one to follow. The county has no
funds on hand which can be used and
the only way the boys could get back if
Cohen was broke would be to raise
the money by public subscription
which has already been undertaken.
James F. Morgan, the relief agent,
was very decided i'm his views THAT
money should go to help the needy in
San Francisco" said he, "and it should
not be diverted for any other purpose
If the people want the band back badly
let them raise a different fund"
Probably before the matter progress
es much further Joe Cohen will be COM
municated with and his side of the
story learned. There is a possibility
that the story told by the band boys is
greatly exaggerated and that Cohen
will be on hand with the goods" when
he is ready to return.

TO the Editor OF The Tribune
Sir: I have read Some Shameless Crimes OF
Private Detectives" by Thomas Beet. published
IN yesterdays Tribune.
The article is full OF inaccuracies does great
injustice 20 those engaged IN the legitimate de-
tective business. and the writer evidently knows
very little Of reputable private detective agen-
cies OF America. and doubt his competency 20
pass on the private detective system IN England
From what know Of Mr.. Bests detective
experience. he IS wholly incompetent to Judge OF
the matters on which he writes.
Ny father was practically the founder OF the
private detective business in America; It has
been the life work OF my brother and myself and
without being egotistical. there Is probably no
one knows more OF the business than we DO and
who can speak more accurately on the subject
than we can.
am not an upholder OF wrong IN any profess
sion. and least OF all IN my own. but II the pri-
vate detective system was as disrsputabls as
AIr. Beet claims. there should be sorns public
records 20 show for II, and win venture 20 say
that convictions OF private detectives IN this
country could be counted on the fingers Of both
hands
In the last ffty-fve years that our business
has been established we have probably en-
ployed (conservatively estirnated) forty thousand
men. and not one was convicted OF a crime.

The statement made that certain men acting
as detectives, with white labels on their coats

cause disturbances and riot is not only abso-
lutely untrue. but IS ridiculous to be enter
tanned by any intelligent person, and Mr.. Beers
deficient knowledge on this subject characteriZeS
the whole article which Is full OF general and
false statements, and what little truth there Is
Is greatly exaggerated.
Bad men creep into every profession. No pro-
fession can be perfect. but believe the records
will show that there have been more convfc-
tions OF private detectives than OF members OF
other professions, if as many.
do not wish IL 10 be construed that cham

cipally treats Of This agency and other rep
utable detectives DO not undertake divorce cases
