a great deal of headway in their duties.
II is now pretty well understood lhat
there is a bad stumbling block in, sf0e
way Of getting power from the plant
az the Sebasticook Power Co at Pitts
field. Just what this stumbling block
is has not at the present time peeh
made public. In the meantime the
plans for the new power house WHICH
n. Curtis Fletcher of Boston is to buiid
are being inspected by local contrac-
tors and bids upon the construction
OF the house will be received between
now and Saturday.
The selectmen have instructed the
local officers to enforce the town Or
dinance regulating the use of the
streets for cOaStinS. For the past feW
weeks the boys and young people or
the town have been making too free
use of any and all streets for coast
ing. There has been one bad accident
and many narrow escapes from others.
Amos Morgridge who was badly in
jured by having his double runner run
into n dog on the Tannery hill is re-

almost instantly killed by the collision.

otfuegle may have been ere she learnt TO
IUetGn herself to her lonely lot? The abb
oence Of this link TO bind marital life
together, the absence Of this one pledge
% mutual affection Is a common disap-
pointment. Many unfortunate couples
become estranged thereby. Even if they
do not drift apart, one may read the whole
extent Of their disappointment in the eyes
Of such childless couple when they rest
on the children Of others. To them the

Perjury of the rankest kind was
morning in a hearing before Commis
sioner Mailing in the case Of Chinese
charged with conspiracy to obtain pas
sage to the United States by fraudu
lently representing himself as born in
Hawaii. The statement was also
brought out that a Chinese named
Wong, whom the officials are very an
xious to find, has been doing a broker
age business in fake certificates and
claims to have fixed some federal
employees in the immigration depart
ment, by payments of money so that
he could pass his Chinese to the coast.
Chong Cheong was the star perjurer
of the case He took the stand and
told with the utmost frankness how
he had sworn to statements he knew
nothing about, excepting as his reward
therefor a promised couple of dollars
if his testimony aided i'm securing the
defendant Wong Kock Yee admission
to the United States.
Wong Kong wrote me a letter tell
ing me what to testify to in order to
get certificate for Wong Kock Yee,"
said Cheong. "I testified as he wrote,
although l didn't know anything about
It," The last was in answer to a
question by Breckons, followed up
with one by Mailing. AS Cheong sat
admitting his cheap perjury, the dis
trict attorney was at work on war
rant for his arrest for perjury, and he
was taken into custody Immediately af-
| ter the hearing. Wong told me that
If the certificae was secured all right
he would give me a couple of dollars, -
was another of this cheerful old per-
jurer's statements. He Is an aged
dried up Chinese and seemed utterly
unable to understand anything about
such an offense as perjury making
quite joke of it after arrest.
The defendant Wong Kock Yee made
a statement after the prosecutions case
| closed He confessed the whole scheme
Wong Kong had told him that he
could fix it so that he could go to the
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1906-03-17

coast as a Hawaiian born Chinese.
Don't be afraid said Wong Kong.
"the immigration officers are all my
friends. 1 pay them money and Il you
give me $3.50 1 will see that you can
go to the coast. If any trouble comes
l will look after you" Wong Kong
further told Wong Kock Yee that he
wanted $50 on the spot, to give it to
the white man" in the immigration Of
fee. That would fix the matter. Half
of the $3.50 was to be paid in advance
and the rest after Wong Kong had
fixed it, and Wong Kock Yee was
safely booked for the coast.
In pursuance Of the plan Wong
Kock Yee presented himself at the
immigration station claiming to be
the Chung Duck, named i'm a Hawaiian
birth certificate which he claimed as
his own. He swore to a plausible story
of his birth on Maui, and old ChOng
Cheong willingly swore to the same
facts, for the expected "coup'S of dol
lars"
Things seemed to have gone all right
said Yee, and Wong Kong told him
everything was pau" and settled, only
he needed $40 more, for the witnesses.
He had paid the white man." The
next day, however, Yee went up against
It, for the immigration official he met
began some very unpleasant cross exa-
limitations. Finally he told Yee that
his certificate was a fake and that he
had better tell the whole truth, or he
would go to Jail. Then" said Yee
on the stand this morning. 81 told the
whole truth.
81 thank the chief immigration official
for giving me plenty of time to tell
everything true" said Yee in closing
his statement. HE treated me very
kindly, but at the same time I know
that am going to become a criminal"
Chong Cheong is being given a hear
ing on his perjury charge his after
noon. Yee is held under $1,5OO bonds
to answer at the next term Of court for
conspiracy. In the meantime there IS
a rapid investigation going on and
Wong Kong is much in demand.

The american fever" as it is called
among the Japs, appears to be causing
a lot of agitation among them, espe-
cially in Honolulu. Local Japanese pa
pers contain the advertisement of Ha-
sagawa, who recently got a license to
solicit laborers calling for 1000 Jap
anese to go to the coast at once. The
advertisement is a half-page one. 1t
offers wages of from $135 per day up,
stating that men who are good can
make from 50 to "a per day under con-
tracts. Kasagawa says he is not go

japanese in San Francisco are re-
ported to be stirring up the movement
They have gotten up a protest to their
Minister against the circular issued
here by Acting Consul Matsubara, in
which he tells them there is no work
much of the time and much hardship
and poverty among Japs.
Kasagawa, it is said, represents Ja-
panese employment concern of San
Francisco, which was formed for the
purpose of supplying laborers to rail-
roads and other concerns wanting them.
He paints a glowing picture of the
nice times to be had in California.
A rumor among Japanese has it that
Jim Hill, of the Great Northern, is
coming here, but no foundation il'
known for such a report. Hills rail-
road is the concern which is said to be
the most anxious to get Japs from
here, and the report may have been cir
culated by the labor agents as an aid
to their efforts to interest laborers IN
their proposition
