IN MANY TIGHT PLACES.
81 have been in many tight placer
but think the adventure that brought
my life into most peril was the arrest
OF gang of safe breakers In the old
Seven Dials. In the early days of my
career i was attached to the Bow
street station. The Seven Dlals in
those days was one OF the worst. II not
the very worst place for criminals In
the world. Every type OF crook sought
refuge there.
"One OF the worst gangs OF this dis
triot included among others probably
the most desperate special safe man Ia
the history OF crime. "Blnkey TIM
Davey and his partner. Morrison. The
gang had committed a series of rob-
berries In the north of England, and had
come TO the Seven Dials TO enjoy tho
proceeds. l noticed Davoy at Il race

Special Correspondence

n ARTS, June 26.--At the presen,
r. hour there is perhaps no single
| question OF International import
ance. which Is the object OF moro
earnest attention--one might say of
more general uncertainty and dis
trust--than the attitude. aims and am
billions OF the youngest of the great
powers. 1t would almost seem as
though the tremendous struggle from
which Japan emerged victorious had
had the effect of unnerylng the world
and causing it to whisper anxiously:
Whose turn will il be next?"
If this atmosphere of distrust Is to BIS
dispersed, 1t Is OF the first Importance

intentions OF Japan. No man is better
qualified TO speak on this subject than
the distinguished diplomat who bore

coded tho Russo-Japanese war. and
who now represents tho Mikado i'll

IMMIGRANTS
UNDER CONSIDERATION

There was a meeting of the Board
of immigration yesterday afternoon, at
which Collector z. r. Stackable. late
special immigration envoy to Europe,
was present. The business of the ses-
sion related TO the aftermath of his
mission, the especial matter being with
reference to the Spanish people reject
ed from the Heliopolis and the Portu-
guese from the Kumeric
1t is understood that the board is re-
sponsible for the return of those re-
jected, but possibly an effort may be
made to have any of them desirable as
settlers admitted.
Nothing has yet been decided by the
board regarding the presentation of
Hawaiian immigration matters to Sec
rotary Straus on his present visit.

II IS runlored that the Hawaiian Su-
gar Company win resume lis former
dividend Of one and one-half per cent
a month the middle Of September,
About q year ago the dividend was cut
to one per. cent. monthly. \ large in
crease Of this years crop Of Makaweli
plantation over the estimate puts the
company in position 10 restore the
former dividend. Although the d.
rectors have not yet taken the action
in question. the rumor has received
fun eredence among brokers for some
days.
1t is learned that the figures given
in the commercial article Of the sun
day Advertiser regarding Hawaiian
Commercial and Sugar Company,
which had been made out at Aiexan-
der & BaIdwin's only the previous af-
ternoon, were strongly conservative.
The position of the company is even
better than there stated. This was
that the 1907 crop was 44,143 tons OF
sugar and, after payment of operating
expenses. there would be $4,000 for
permanent improvements and invest
ments, $4,000 fol. redemption of bonds.
