A MurderouS Burglar Is At Large
WANTONLY STABS A WOMAN

A murderous Porto Rican burglar
has been operating among the Japan
ese, His list of victims early this
morning numbers two, of whom one is
likely to die. One of the attacks was
made upon woman, and was most
wanton in character. The name Of this
victim is Mrs. Akahoshi and she is a
nurse in the Japanese Hospital on Lii
ma street where the assault occurred
about $50 o'clock this morning.
The woman is one of the night nur-
ses. She was making her visit to the
various patients and happening to look
at the window in one of the cottage
saw the face of a strange man peering
through at her The woman courage
ously walked out of the room and ap-
preaching the man inquired what he
wanted. He replied: What's the mat
ter?' and then grabbed at her. She
turned and started to run away but
an instant later received a knife wound
in the back The wound was inflicted
with a narrow sharp-pointed dirk
knife, for the knife penetrated the left
lung, The assailant escaped The wo-
mans condition Is critical and doubts
were entertained this morning that she
would recover,

DR.. Orr in the work combats the ex-

the accuracy of much of the destruc-

DR.. Orr in thed iscusslon that followed.
Rev. G. d. Edwards and DR.. Dore-

Anti-Saloon Agent John NJ. Martin
reported to the meeting the result of
the taking of the straw vote during the

The remainder of the morning was
spent in discussing the policy to be
followed by the Anti-Saloon League
and whether they should follow the
policy of the Civic Federation or not.
No decision was reached.

she stated that she would be able to
identify the man. From her description
he is undoubtedly a Porto Rican. The
woman stated that his hair was kinky
and while his complexion was quite
dark, he was not apparently a full

The natural presumption is that the
Porto Rican had gone upon the
grounds of the hospital for the pur-
pose of committing robbery. but was
discovered by his victim. No report OF
any robbery was made to Detective
Mkt who investigated the occurrence.
The other stabbing occurred about
4:S5 o'clock this morning, within an
hour following the outrage at the Jap
anese Hospital. Shzo, japanese man
was awakened in his room at a Jap

TO
RAISE COAST
FREIGHT RATES
PROPOSITION TO PUT THE RATES
AT THE OLD FIGURES UNDER
STOOD TO HAVE BEEN MADE
RECENTLY.

Attempts are understood to have
been made last month to increase the
freight rates from San Francisco to
island ports. The idea was to PIT the
rates back to the old figures that ox-
listed before the cut was made about
five years ago At that time the rate
was $5 a ton for steamer freight snd
$3.50 for sailing vessel freight. Thes
rates were subsequently, after the en-
trance of the American-Hawaiia .ine
into competition, cut to $3.50 for steam
er and $3.50 for sailing vessel They
have since remained at that figure
About three weeks ago efforts were
made to have effect an agreement be-
tween the various steamship and sail
ing ship agencies to increase the atas,
raising them to the former figures
The overtures are understood to have
been turned down by one of the COM
panies. No action has therefore been
taken in the matter

grabbed the intruder by the leg. caus-
ing him to fall to the floor The Jan
anese grappled with the Porto Rican.
The latter threw his arm back and
stabbed the japanese in the back. The
wound was painful and caused the
japanese to relinquish his hold on the
robber who escaped.
The robber was a most determined
man, for he carried the carpet-bag
away with him. The bag was found
later this morning near the old Kau-
makapili church grounds. The bag
had been slit open and had evidently
been ransackod for valuables Most of
the original contents of the bag were
left about the bag.
Shizo held his hand to the wound
and called for assistance He was sent
to the Japanese Hospital where his in
jury was dressed. The wound is not
likely to prove fatal, for it was not so
deep nor in such a vital place as that
inflicted upon the nurse. He gives a
description Of his assailant that cor.
responds to the one given by the Jap
anese nurse of the man who attacked
her. The nature of the two wounds
is similar and this causes the police to

THE GOODRICH WILL.
WELLKSoWN CARRTAGEMAFEB
LEAVES WIDOW OUT

Fortune Of 100000 Left to Distant
Relative in New York-wrl Made
the Night Before He Committed sui
cide--Nephews to Make Fight.
Through a probate court fight which
began yesterday over the estate of the
late Joseph F. Goodrich, the carriage
manufacturer who shot himself at his
home, $50 Chapel street, on the after
noon of November /, it developed that
on the night before he took his life Mr..
Goodrich drew up will in New York
city, cutting off his wife and near rela-
lives without penny and leaving all
to Albert Adams, of New York city, a
distant relative, to whom he had be-
come attached. 1t is estimated that the
Goodrich estate amounts to between
100000 and 100000.
The will was filed in the probate court
yesterday afternoon, and notice of
contest was given by Attorney Prentice
w. Chase, representing DR.. r. o. Clarke
of Marlborough, Mass, a nephew, who
is acting for a number of other neph-
eWs. DR.. Clarke came to this city yes
terday to make arrangements to break
the will,
Undue influence exerted by Mr.. Adj
ans, who, besides heing left all the for
tune, is made executor of the WILL will
probably be alleged in the contest. The
widow will make no contest, as no will
can cut her off from her dover interest
of one-third the estate, She is not men
toned in the document
Attorney Chase says that Mr.. Good
rich drew up his will through firm of
New York lawyers on William street,
and that all the witnesses were New
Workers.
Albert Adams, the sole benefactor Of
the will, came into pablo notice not
long ago as one Of the parties awarded
heavy damages from the New York
Central railroad as the result of injuries
sustained in tunnel crash. Mr.. Adams
lost both his legs in the accident and
was awarded $4,000 damages. Even
the Goodrich factory and home are left
to Mr.. Adams
Mr.. Goodrich was one of the Oldest
carriagemakers in the state, and was
well known throughout New England
He shot himself through the chest with
a revolver while sitting in a chair at
his Chapel street home. Ill-hralth was
given as the cause of his act. He left
no children.
