A $50 RATE
TO THE COAST
PROPOSED
ONE OF THE PLANS DISCUSSED BY
TION WITH NEW STEAMSHIP.

There IS a feeling among the mem
bers of the Merchants Association that
the new steamship is assured. At the
meeting yesterday the reports from all
the members of the committee which
had in hand tn canvas of the merchants
for pledges of freight, was, that there
was almost unanimity among the
merchants in this respect. By far the
large majority Of the merchants were
willing to give assurances Of their
freight sufficient to meet all the re-
ouirements of the company in this re-
spect.
The success of a new steamship de-
pends on the guarantee of sufficient
freight each way to make it pay The
planters have already guaranteed sufti-
cient freight from here to the coast
The merchants were asked to guar
antee sufficient freight from the coast
here. This it is believed is about as
sured.
, c. p. Morse, the general freight agent
of the American-Hawaiian Steamship
Company, said this morning that the
steamship his company proposed to
build for this service was vessel that
in size would be about half way be-
tween the China and the Korea. 1t
would be large enough and commodious
enough to attract travel to it, and as
large as would be available for this
trade. II would be well designed and a
lpleasing vessel to travel on.
A passenger rate of $50 each way be-
tween here and the coast and of 500
for the round trip, is one of the plans
for the new steamship, as it was dis
cussed at the meeting of the Mer-
Ichants Association yesterday afternoon
e. II. Paris, secretary of the Mer-
chants Association, says that seventy
five per cent of the merchants have
signed the agreement to give the Am
erican- Hawaiian Steamship Company
sixty-six and two-thirds per cent Of
their freight. Some have agreed to give
even more, as high as seventy-hve pei
cent.
The matter Is now to be taken M
with the sugar planters in order to as
certain how much they will give to
wards the undertaking.

The concession for the Hankow-Can
ton railway was originally granted to a
Belgian concern This concern attempt
ed to transfer it to a syndicate of AM
ericans, including j. p. Morgan. The
Chinese Government objected to con-
senting to the transfer. The United
States was appealed to. But in the in
terest of harmony President Roosevelt
dislked to press the matter and finally
the Chinese Government itself was in
duced to buy the concession back at the
price the Americans paid the Belgians
for it.

TIONs OF INSANITY

That Frank Johnson made no efforts
at concealment of his blood-stained
clothes and that he was kind to the
Wharton children, made them presents
and was liked by them, was the sub
stance of the first evidence brought out
by Attorney Harrison for the defense
in the Johnson murder case this morn
ing. The ross-examination of Mrs.
Wharton was resumed.
Mrs. Wharton testified that Johnson
did not change his clothes after she
had observed the red dirt stains on
them, which was after the killing. His
face and hands remained dirty.
Harrison asked the witness if John
son did not generally treat the chill
dren kindly and she replied that he did

TRIAL Will
OU9bAST
THE TERM
CHANCE FOR LAWYERS TO RAISE
OBJECTIONS TO TERM BEGIN
MING MONDAY NEXT.

The Johnson murder trial is going to
Outlast the present rm of court and
will therefore give an opportunity for
raising another question similar to the
Elapsed term" proposition which caus-
ed so much trouble some months ago,
for the contention may be raised that,
as two terms of the same court cannot
be cOntemporaneOus, the continuation
of the present term makes the new
term or vice versa void. This Is the
question which was raised by AttOrnew
Ashford in the Godfrey Brown case.
The result was the night sessions to
finish the case b. fore the last term eX-
pired, and it was in the last of these
night sessions that the "Black and
White" which caused Carter to Op-
pose Judge Robinson was used.
In the Johnson case it is certain that
the trial will not be finished when the
term expires. at midnight tomorrow.
BY a special provision of the the last
legislature a trial already begun may
continue after a term expires. That
makes the term also continue, and In
the Godfrey Rowland case it was con-
tended that such a continuation would
invalidate either the new term or the
attempted extension of the old one
Though Judge Robinson expressed the
opinion that there was nothing in the
contention he held night sessions tC
avoid it's causing any trouble. In th'
present case night sessions will not hell
so that If any lawyers want to raise tn,
question next week they may do so.

The Territorial Grand jury for the
January term of the circuit court made
its final report to Judge Robinson to-
day. The jury met in the Throne room
with Deputy Attorney General Fleming
and spent considerable time in discuss

additions. Che ia is the principal mat

The report was presented to Judge
Robinson during the Johnson trial
shortly before noon today, by Foreman

The judge adjourned the Johnson case
to two o'clock in order to receive the
report and after receiving it he gave

DECLARE THAT PAPER
GUILTY OF PREVARlCATlON
Action of Chief Sheets and His
Men Heartily IndorSed by
the Ladies.

Another exhibition of stralning at a
snat and swallowing camel was given
by the Herald Friday morning In its
report OF the developments in the Cros-
ley larceny cases.
Everybody familiar with the facts
knows that n mountain has been made
out OF n mole hill In both stories pub
1ished in the Herald. For the infor-
nation OF readers the plain facts are
printed once more.
On July Doris CroSIey. a woman
thief, was arrested by Detectives Chase
and Burt and charged with stealing q
number of jewels from Mrs. Hugh
Ward OF S64 Lincoln avenue. This
jewels were recovered from local pawn
shops and held as evidence against the
thief. who made complete confession
of the crime. When the newspapers
printed tho story Mrs. w. B. Throck-
morton of 81 r street recognized the
Crosley woman as former servant
who had stolen a watch and several
precious stones from her. She noti-
fled the police. and within a short tms
Chase and Burt had recovered the
Throckmorton jewels. These were also
held to be used as evidence against
the thief. in case of prosecution.
All Parties Satisfied.
Now, in consulting the police In the
Ward were advised as to the law of
this State In proceedings for the re-
covery OF stolen property. 1t was ex-
Dlained TO them just what replevin pro-
ceedings cost and why, in order to
secure a conviction of a prisoner ac-
cused Of theft, 1T was necessary to hold
the stolen property as evidence against
them. The same course is taken in all
cases in all police departments In
America.
Both ladies were entirely satisfied
with the conduct OF the police and are
still satisfied. While the repeated pub
lication of their names has been some
what annoying, they declared Friday
afternoon that they were willing TO
stand for 1T once more In order TO state
positively that they have not now. and
have never had, the slightest complaint
TO make against any step taken in the
Crosley case To a Tribune represent

Citizen.

For several weeks a number of bitter
personal attacks have appeared in a
salt Lake newspaper against DR.. NJ. r.
Stewart. city health commissioner. The
last one eliminated in a direct personal
attack In which he is charged with
having taken down a quarantine flag
and permitting the patient to go into
another town.
To all these attacks DR.. Stewart has
remained silent, and has refused to
be interviewed regarding the matter.
The last attack, however, Is so mali
cious that DR.. Stewart. in a talk with

said that Il did take the flag down In
the case at issue and did this acting
under the advice of Judge Hiles, city
attorney"

Some Facts for Public.
