CALL ON
STRAUS
DISCUSS HAWAII AF-
FAIRS WITH AMERICAN CAB
met OFFICER THIS MORNING.

The four editors of the different
Japanese dailies, Soga, Sheba, Kimura
and Onodera called on Secretary Straus
this morning at the Moana Hotel for
the purpose of asking him what his
ideas were in reference to the immi-
grafton of the Japanese. The question
was asked Straus what his general op-
inion about the Japanese in Hawaii
was. Straus answered that he was
very much pleased with what he had
seen here, and that he was very much
surprised to find that there was so
much harmony among them.
In answering the question, What did
he think of the future policy in refer
ence to the Islands, he replied: THE
power in the United States is not con-
trolled by one man, but is left entirely
to the house of Congress and it is en-
tirely up to them. My own opinion
is that the government should open
the door to every one and allow every
body to come in here, and do the best
they can to build up the country. This
Territory is one of the grandest of our
possessions and the chances here are
too numerous to mention, but if large
number of people were induced to
come here, in my opinion, 1t would be
the best thing that could possibly hap
pen to Hawaii.
THE American government are will
ing, and intend to give every other
nation the same chance as they give
their own people, without regard to

IN ALEWA
PROSPECT OF A LOT OF RESI-
DENCE BUILDING IN THE NEAR
FUTURE.

Alewa promises to spring into life
at once as an attractive suburban resi-
dence district with an enterprising lot
of citizens pushing improvements
ahead. The buyers of lots at the recent
sale have called a meeting for tomor-
matters, and already about 80 of them
are planning to build homes. 1t is
said that several very fine places will
soon be put up.
Among the matters to be brought up
tomorrow evening are securing exten-
sion of the electric light system 70
Alewa, improvement of the water sup
ply, offering the untaken lots for sale
and paying second assessments in, so
that Land Commissioner Pratt may
have money enough for road construc-
ton
1t is understood that many of the
buyers are ready to pay the second as
sessment at once, in order to get a
road, instead of taking the time ths
law allows.
A number of applicants have come
forward for the remaining Alewa lots,
and Land Commissioner Pratt will be
asked to offer them. Pratt will attend
the meeting and discuss this and the
road matter with the prospective resi-
dents of the district. The meeting is
to be held at 1880 in the makai pavi-
lion of the Alexander Young Hotel.
"Alewa is going to be one of Homo
lulus best residence districts in no
time" said w. W. Thayer, who is one
of the committee getting up the meet
ing.

At RECEPTION
SOME QUEER WIRE PULLING
THAT PRECEDED SATURDAl
NIGHT FUNCTION.

People who have their ears to the
ground-politician especially,-may
hear a low rumbling like the sound of
many voices murmuring knocks and
complaints in which the words "Straus
reception" frequently occur. 1t is
the murmur of the kickers who think
that Carter stole march on them and
of other kckers who think they were
used in the making of said march,
Incidentally, it is stated that the
Longworths were far from pleased at
'having to take part. Congressman ana
Mrs. Longworth came here for a rest
and not in any official capacity and
though of course they would not for
anything express such a feeling it is
said that the announcement of a pub
lie reception to themselves in company
with Secretary Straus was not pleasing.
But it is the Hawaiian invitations
that cause the political rumbling. Pub
lie announcement was made that there
would be no invitations and none were
sent to haoles But on Friday and
Saturday there was a great hustling to
get invitations to members of various
Hawaiian societies. The Hawaiians
were reached in large numbers and
pledged to turn out.
Late on Saturday a counter move
ment suddenly turned up, no one knows
from where. The effort to hustle up a
big Hawaiian attendance was thought
by some to be a plan by which Carter
was to show what fine Hawaiian fol-
lowing the administration had. With
this idea in mind some Hawaiians got
busy drumming up big attendance for
the show at the opera house and a big
stay-away crowd as far as the recep-
tion was concerned.
The result was crowded opera
house and also an immense turnout OF
Hawaiians at the reception. But they
went away sore. They were lined up
in the basement and at the proper
time marched up in sort of review
and out into the night OF course
shaking hands and speaking to such a
large gathering was impracticable, but
the natives observed that haoles were
handled n different way, and also they
were disappointed at being allowed tC
go forth refreshmentless.- and some o
the haoles have similar kick,

ANOTHER APPEAL
TO HIGHER COURT
LONG CONTESTED FORECLOSURE
CASE GETS A FURTHER LEASE
OF LIFE.

An appeal was yesterday taken from
the judgment of the Circuit Court to
the Supreme Court, by the defendants
in the foreclosure suit of Ellen Alber-
tina Polyblank, ets al, VS.. David Ka-
wananakoa, ct al.
This is the case decided last week by
Judge Robinson in confirming the sale
of the mortgaged property and ap-
proving the report of the Commission
er, M. r. Simonton. The grounds for
appeal will probably be that the sale
of one of the pieces of land to Edward
Henriques for $3.50 was an inadequate
price, inasmuch as the purchaser at a
previous sale had bid $2750 for the
same property but had lost it at the
time by being overbid by H. Mossman
who was afterwards unable to raise
the cash payment necessitating a re-
sale of the premises.

MAY Fire"
MACKINPOSH
BOARD OF EDUCATION SAID TO BE
DISCUSSING CHANGE IN THE
ROYAL SCHOOL.

The Board of Education, it is said,
is getting ready to fire" the Rev.
Alexander Macintosh, for many years
principal of the Royal School. This
is said to be partly the reason for the
secret session of yesterday. Some OF
the members are said to have express
ed themselves as desirous of making
change in the school, and this has led
to reports that the matter was discuss
ed in the closed meeting of yesterday
afternoon.
The board did not take the public
into it's confidence as to what its dis
cussions were about, so it is not known
how the deliberations went, but in the
open meeting there was considerable
discussion regarding an application OF
the Rev. Macintosh for leave of alb
sence, and Superintendent Babbitt went
so far as to suggest that the Rev.
Macintosh ought to resign if he in
tended to take lengthy trip to Europe.
The Rev Macintosh has had a long
and successful term as principal of the
school.

BODY OF JAP
IN THE HARBOR

Yoshioka Kijuji is dead, very dead
He was a carpenter and was missed
last Saturday. This morning his re-
mains were taken from the harbor
near the old Wilder wharf near Fort
street The features had been hor-
ribly attacked by crabs and fish.
Death was clearly accidental and
this fact was shown by the condition
of the clothing, which, while he had
evidently been removing a portion
thereof, had probably become entan-
gled about his feet, tripping him over
backwards into the water.

Warren carries papers for steam or

having passed the word that he guess

It is not a case of cold feet with
Rosehill. He is not the man to ac-
