WHAT SARGENT

Frank =. Sargent, Commissioner of
immigration, returned from Honolulu
yesterday, arriving on the Japanese
liner Nippon Maru, which has no Ii
cense Ito carry passengers between
American ports. Commissioner Sargent
is therefore expected by the Togo Kisen
Kaisha line to reimburse it for the fine
of 5000 that viii be imposed for this in
fraction Of the law. Sargent had moth
ing to say in explanation of taking
passage on the Nippon Maru, except to
remark that the service was pretty
good on these liners and he was anx-
ious to return to the mainland
Regarding immigration matters in
Hawaii Commissioner Sargent said
that the Japanese were fast d\splacing
all shopkeepers, contractors, carpenters
and tradesmen generally of other ma
tionalities in the islands. The Japa-
nese population in the islands is, how
ever rather on the decrease, on account
of the rush of the japanese for this
coast. Hundreds of the brown men are
monthly arriving at Honolulu, but
their stay there is brief, the great army
being bound in the direction of the
mainland.
Commissioner Sargent refused to
speak of the future Of japanese on the
Pacific Coast. you know cannot

Jacob Kotinsky, the government en-
tomologist in this city stated this
morning that he knew the PetrOvskys
and Baumgarten quite well as they
stopped in Honolulu about three weeks
before sailing on the Nippon Maru.
THE story about Petrovsky is true
in regard to his being a colonel in the
Russian Army and being sentenced to
imprisonment. He was a revolutionist
but he was absent by permission to see
his sick wife who was detained at San
Francisco with him. They were on
their way to Arizona as the wife was
suffering from consumption and the
doctors had advised that climate.
think that it is a shame that they
should be held up.
"Petrovsky was stationed. in Via
divostok and was at Lieut.. Colonel. A
mass meeting. during which the people
were shot down occurred directly in
front of the house where he and his
wife lived. The house at that time
was converted into hospital. During
the weeks that followed Nine. Petrov-
sky saw much going on which turned
her against the government although
she was born of the higher classes and
was what would be called an aristO-
crat.
"Petrovsky was present at that meet
ing, whether as a speaker or simply as
one of the audience l do not know
However he was sentenced to imprison-
ment for one and one half years but
was granted a permit to visit his wife.
He is now out on that permit and they
were bound to Arizona.
"Baumgarten was civil engineer
and vase bound for st. Petersburg
do not know whether he was a revo-
lutionist or not but l think that he was
simply undecided, on the fence as it
were, and attended to his own business
only.
quite a joke has been played on the
Federal authorities / think. on the
China which brought this party to
Honolulu there was a man whom the
Government wants very much indeed.
He is one of the leadinfg revolutionists
of Dussia and has just escaped from
Imprisonment. He luckily proceeded at
once to the states and was not held up
with this party, These people are not
wanted as far as l know and holding
them up will do no good.
Il think Sargent stopped them to
throw dirt in their eyes so that they
would not want to know so much about
what he was doing here"

LOUISA WANTS
To Be SAVED

Miss Louisa Tesla who occupies, with
friends, a suite of rooms in the Winston
block on Hotel street near the Nuuanu
river, sought refuge from herself in
the arms of the police at sunrise today,
weeping man ytears and calling upon
humanity in general to witness that
she had reformed and put away the
things of this world for the things that
are not subject to rust and moth.
Apparently something other than the
spiritual Christmas feeling had entered
Louisa's being, for her breath was
stronger than would be expected as the
result of chewing sen-sen or licorice
and she had probably looked upon the
gin when 1t was streaked with blue.
Be that as it may, Miss Louisa said
that she was altogether tired of the
unsatisfactory wages of sin and want
ed to turn over a new leaf in honor of
Christmas.
Lieutenant Aea who had the honor
Of being the officer TO whom Louisa
surrendered, asking him to lock her up
and keep her safe from the sin of the
world, advised her to file application
with the Salvation Army. In fact
Aea grew quite eloquent in the matter
for he has seen some very hard cases
become gentle as pet lambs under the
influence of the Army. Louisa said
that she had spoken of this very sub
ject to a lady identified with the SAL
Vationists and that she seemed to
doubt that the Army could guarantee
anything i'm the line Of miracles.
Louisa Tesla would no doubt be an
inspiring sight to wavering sinners
could she be induced to don the pretty
uniform f the Salvation Army, ia
nous for the good 1t does and swing a
tambourine shouting hallelujah. 1t
may yet come, for Louisa is very much
stuck on a new life.

the march was resumed. The Gre
nadians rejoined the next day; they
had built a small craft, but it was
soon wrecked. The day after Strain
took three men to push their way
rapidly down the river and secure aid
for the rest Of the party, leaving Mr..
Truxton in command. Avery, vol.
unteer, and Golden and Wilson OF the
Cyanne, volunteered to accompany
him.
After many parting councils Strain
sadly left the main body on February
Is. Occasionally bird or an iguana
was shot and furnished modicum Of
food for the famished men. Lombard,
Harrison and Castillo failed entirely
on the twenty-eighth day. Holmes,
who had lost his boot. had wounded
foot that was becoming gangrenous.
Some buzzards. turkey and pee
cary were shot, but there was no
marching until the thirty-seventh day
and then only for half mile.
Lombard, Parks and Johnson left
the camp and hid. In their terrible
sufferings they had matured a plan to
hide until Holmes died. exhume the
body and subsist upon the flesh until
they reached the Atlantic coast On

by incessant toll, Polanco and Kettle
well gave out, the latter begging to
be left behind. The men did not take
care OF their rations, the Grenadians
had thrown away theirs and there was
but one days supply remaining. The
officers had some food left, and this
was divided among the party. Once
more the march was resumed. the
men struggling YEARLY through the
hills and dense forests.
Reluctantly Strain gave the order to
return to the river he had left and
there the first and last council OF the
party was held. The conclusion was
reached that they were on the lyle
slas, set down by Osborne as a branch
of the Savanna. There was no trail
through the wilderness; three OF the
men and one of the Grenadans were
utterly worn out. A few plantains
were found and divided. Eight birds
were shot, among them an owl and
woodpecker, and some small fish were
caught by Mr.. Truxton. An iguana
was shot and, in vainly trying to re-
cover 1t from the river, Holmes lost
his boot, which later on caused his
death.
