HORSE OWNER Is
FLEECED OUT
OF $4,000
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL

NEW YORK, Jan. 15.-It was ru-
mored around police headquarters to-
day that detectives from the central
office had been ordered to round up all
the wire tappers" In the town. These
swindlers are misnamed, because in re-
ality they never tap the wires. They
only pretend that they do.
Today's order, II was said followed a
report that a well-known horse owner
had been heeced by the wire tappers''
to the tune of $4,000. The victim was
led into the trap innocently by down
town broker, who was used as bait by
the gang. 1t was known that the
broker was closely associated with the
horse owner, so the wire tappers"
made his acquaintance and then per-
mitted him TO win $1,000. He intro
duced the horse owner into the scheme.
The latter said he was familiar with
the ways of fake wire tappers," but
they succeeded in duping him i-s5c the
belief that they were real tappers of
race track wires, ard after feeding out
$4,000 in bait. succeeded In landing the
big fish.
Ak1 the members of the gang who
did the fleeing are well known to the
police, and their pictures are in the
rogues' gallery, but they kept in the

and they make up the best looking lot

g. b. Morris and one to II. T. Oxnard.
1t is not explained how these twelve
got back into the Haggin establish
ment, but their presence there gives
more color to the claims of horsemen
that to guess what has been and has
not been really sold at a Haggin auc-
tfon is harder than solving a Chinese
puzzle, remarks Chicago Racing Form.

Charles E. Durnell has given rise TO a
report that the young horseman will
not be granted q license TO train on
the New York tracks the coming sea-
son, says the New York Telegraph.
The reason assigned for not accepting
an entry from Durnell is that no Off
cial notification Of his reinstatement
by the Pacific Coast Jockey Club has
as yet been made TO the Jockey Club.
The entry has not yet been refused
and holding II up is not necessarily
prophetic OF dtsbarment for Durnell.
There was no one in authority that
would say anything one way or an
other on the subject, and the stewards
are not given TO forecasting their in
tentions in such matters, so that any
positive statement that Durnell will
not be given a license must be unau-
thorized. IT is doubtful If this phase
OF the situation has yet been con-
sidered. Durnell has not yet applied
for a license, so that there could be
no action taken in this regard

Two and Quarter Million Cans the Seasons
Pack of the Hawaiian Pineapple Com
pany's Factory at Honolulu.

! reputation belonging only to the pine
of Hawaii.
| The Iwilei plant this season handled
between fifty and sixty per cent Of
the whole product of all the islands
| There are several other cahneries ac
lively at work, three others on Oahu
other on Kauai, and the sales of each
of these is limited only by the amount
each can turn out. Next after the
Honolulu cannery, the Maui plant
handled the greatest pack, turning out
in the neighborhood of twenty-five
thousand cases.
L. E. Arnold, the manager of the
Hawaiian Pineapple Company's can
ming plant, is satisfied with the record
he has made this season but looks for
ward to greater things in each sue
ceeding season for some years to come.
At present he is busy drafting the
plans for the new buildings to be start
ed at once and is also figuring out a
means of disposing of the waste from
the canning works.
The price paid the growers this sea-
son for their pines ran from $40 to
$3.50 a ton according to the quality
of the fruit. Some few shipments be-
cause of overripeness, had to be re-
fused, but this was very small frac-
ton of the offerings and the growers
now have better idea of what is
needed, SO that refusals in the future
will have to be very little.
James D. Dole, the president of the
company, discussed prices at a consid-
cradle length with the representative
of the Advertiser, particular attention
being paid to the report that during
the coming season the prices to be Of
fered to Independent growers would
be lower than this year, while it was
the intention to increase the price to
be asked for the canned product. Both
these assertions were denied by Mr..
Dole, who stated that the price both
OF the raw material and the canned
pines could be fixed only after the
question of supply and demand had
been settled, which would not be until
near the beginning of each season. The
fruit crops of the mainland determined
to quite an extent the prices\ the job
bers would offer for Hawaiian pines.
A plentiful crop would mean smaller
prices for the local canneries, a scare
lty of mainland fruit would create
greater demand for the Hawaiian prod
uct and consequent stiffening in the
price. The prices to be paid next sea-
son, or during the winter season, which
viii commence about the first of the
year, is therefore a matter which can
only be settled at the time, forecasts
being speculative only.
The question of canning other fruits
han pineapples has not yet been taken
up seriously by the company, although |
t is probable that experiments viii be
made within year to determine what |
AN be done in the way of utilizing the
machinery for the canning of other
Hawaiian fruits during the periods
when the pineapple business is quiet.
