JAP CONTROL in MANcHuRIA.
Railroad to Be Exclusively in Hands
of Mikado,s Subjects.

Dispatches from Toxic declare that
the bonds of the South Manchurian
railroad have been oversubscribed
many times but that there were no
Chinese applications. Explaining this
fact. the Pekin correspondent of the
London Times says that although
China was invited to participate she
did not do so because there were no
funds available for the investment and
none could be had without recourse to
a foreign loan. which policy and the
fear of foreign complications forbade
The railroad, therefore. the corre-
spondent says. although nominally
China-Japanese, will be exclusively
Japanese and gives Japan effective
control over southern Manchuria.

A GALLANT FIGHT
FOR COL. IAUKEA
CONTINUED from Page One).

The Brown-I aukea election contest
was resumed in the Supreme court
this morning with the Iaukea forces on
the aggressive. w. A. Kinney, his at
torney soon Dropped or rather side
tracked the proposition of showing
that the ballots had been tempered
with and blazed an entirely new trail.
He began to introduce evidence tend
ing to show that certain men who were
disqualified from voting had voted for
Brown. The purpose of the attorney
was evidently to try and get enough
ballots alleged to have been Illegally
cast for Brown, rejected and thus give
Iaukea a majority over his opponent.
But the Supreme Court sustained OBJ
jections by Judge Gear to this line of
examination and evidence and this
move was apparently frustrated at the
morning session of court
1t seems not unlikely now that in
event of the Supreme Court declaring
Brown elected sheriff of Oahu county,
the next move by Iaukea will be to
try and have the election declared in
valid on account of fraud and to have
a new one ordered by the Supreme
Court.
The proceedings this morning We're
marked by the announcement by the
Supreme Court of it's official count
which gives Brown a majority of one
in a total vote of $500 George Bar
ker and Kinney furnished some amuse-
ment. The former as a witness, asked
Kinney if the latter had come for an
honest purpose to interview him rela-
tive to the marking of ballots in the
eighth precinct of the fifth district,
where the witness had been an ms
pector, Kinney had rather insinuated
that Barkers testimony relative to the
ballots was not especially reliable.
1t seems likely that the case will be
concluded this afternoon and the Su-
preme Court announce it's final decision
which will either give the sheriff's seat
to Brown or Iaukea or else will order
a new election. The general impress
sion seems to be that the court will
not order a new election but declare
Brown ceated.
George Barker was the first witness
called this morning by w. A. Kinney
in behalf of Iaukea. The witness had
been called yesterday but been excused
to enable him to go home and get his
glasses in order to enable him to scru-
tinize the rejected ballots. Barker
said that he could not state whether
these ballots had been in the same
condition on the election night. He
did say however that he had not seen
the double marking on ballot for
Jarrett and Vida that had been pass
ed by the inspectors and later thrown
out by the Supreme Court.
Hanapi who had tailed the result
Of the count in the eight of the fifth
was next called by Kinney. Witness
stated that he had challenged the vote
of one H. Waiao on the ground that
the latter had been convicted of
crime and never been pardoned. Kim

TO SARGENT
Continued from page oneJ

doing g. I hal been present the other
day ana was asked by him relative to
what I had seen after they had come
ashore.
Il stated that I had seen In the pos
session of some of Glman's assistants
lists that seem to indicate that there
had been an allotment Of them to the
various plantations, but I had ascor-
tanned that there had been no allot-
ment carried out. For instance Eva
was down for II families and I have
been informed that IS went to Eva.
l saw nothing to indicate that there
was any coersion or intimidation or
restrictions being placed upon the i'm
migrants. They were perfectly free so
far as I was able to Judge, to go where
they liked in search of employment
after they had been passed by the i'm
migration officials and I so testified.
It judged from the expressions Of
Sargent that he was satisfied from his
inquiry that the law was not being vio-
lated, and that the Territorial Immi-
grafton Board had conducted the immi-
grafton of the Portuguese and had
ItliOltu Nuell alIeE lnelr arrival mere.
Intact Sargent did not criticize that
feature of the matter and rather seem
ed to be satisfied.
But he did make a strong criticism
of the character of food that had been
served on the steamer to the immi-
grants. The cooks certa inly did not
know their business and in future the
Board ought to make a special point to
see that cooks that are competent are
employed Certainly those on the Su-
veric did not know their business. The
Board did make efforts to secure regu-
lar Portuguese cooks for the immi-
grants before the Suverlc left the Fun
Hhal, but they do not appear to have
been successful.
"I also stated to General Sargent
that I had learned that some of the
immigrants had gone to work for inter-
ests that had not subscribed a cent to
the immigration Boards fund. The
subscription list of thE Board has been
open 70 anybody to subscribe and I so
stated this morning. The bulk of the
money is subscribed by the planters"

TO LUNCH SARGENT.

Governor Carter will give a luncheon
at the Young Hotel tomorrow to Com
missioner General of immigration f. P.
Sargent. There will be as other
guests, members of the Board of I'M
migration and possibly some other Of
ficials.
The Chief Justice suggested to Kin
ney relative to the latter's contention
about the illegality of ballots being
cast and the duty Of the inspectors,
that the statutes provided that the
inspectors shall first upon opening the
ballot boxes, count the ballots in order
to compare the number cast with the
number on the registration list. He
suggested that the official registration
list be secured and this was decided
upon.
Kinney asked that he have until 2
O'Clock to prepare argument on his
claim that votes We're not invalid on
the ground that too many officers were
voted for, and also to present further
argument whether he should be allow
ed in this case to show illegal voting
The court then took a recess until 2
o'clock this Afternoon,
