Chicago, Sept 6-Three badger

ing r. F. Singleton, venerable justice
of the peace, in Cincinnati, after at
tempting to fleece him by the old-time
injured husband" dodge, are being
sought for in this city by Chicago and
Cincinnati detectives.
Three satchels addressed to one of
the alleged criminals are waiting to
be claimed at the office Of the Ameri-
can Express company. 76 Monroe
street. All day detectives haunted the
office, but no one appeared to claim
the baggage. All day, too detectives
watched the general delivery windows
at the postoffice. The leader of the
trio. who is believed to have assumed
the name of Castro" narrowly es-
caped arrest. He called for letter
three minutes before the officers be-
gan their vigilance.

letters written by the woman to the
man, who, it is thought, may be her
husband Several photographs of the
woman gave the police 2 good likeness
to assist them in their hunt.
AS soon as the detectives learned
that one of the alleged criminals was
using the name of Castro, they hur-
ried to the postoffice. They learned
from the general delivery window
clerk that a man named Castro. who
answered the description of the one
wanted. had called for letter only a
moment before. No letter awaited
him.
That there might be no arrests from
mistaken identity, two Cincinnati de-
tectives stood watch with the Chicago
plain clothes men at the postoffice and
another Cincinnati officer was with
the central detailed men at the ex-
press Office. The police believe the
criminals will be arrested.

ton, said Attorney Wilmington last
night, and when there / mean to
make roar in favor of suspending
the eoastwise shipping laws to help
Hawaii, until the usual number of
American steamers return to service
here. Just look at the fix we are in
since the Oceanic laid its colonial liners
off. Aside from the Alameda there
will be no boat coming this way that
can bring passengers, from March 5
to April 3D.. Coast-bound there will
be no passenger boat except the Ala
media until April 6. In April there
will be three boats and from May 7

British liners have a show, though I

WHAT ABOUT THE
PURE FOOD LAW !?

The question of the enforcement OF
the Pure Food law is being taken up
by cable with Secretary Wilson by
Governor Carter, who sent message
yesterday asking whether the Depart
ment of Agriculture at Washington
would attend TO it. This cable is to be
followed by an explanatory letter,
stating that insomuch as the Terri
torial Legislature is now in session IL
is necessary to know whether an ap-
preparation will have TO he passed here
for the enforcement of the law.
The Pure Food law went into effect
on January /. but there has been no
action taken under it because no ap-
preparation had been made at Wash
ington On Monday, the cable brought
the news that the appropriation bills
had been passed, and it was 10 learn
whether sum had been voted for the
prosecution of the sellers Of aduiter-
ated food products that the cable was
sent.
1t is most probable that an answer
will be received today stating that the
matter will be looked after here In
future by the Federal authorities,
which will be that much of burden
taken off the shoulders Of the Terri
torial taxpayers.

! ministration. This necessitated a re-
arrangement in the personnel of the
force, and I had to cut off every man
who was not working directly on the
force, among them Eli Crawford, the
assistant clerk of the Circuit Court,
whose pay should not come from this
department as he was not working for
it. A short time ago I received a let
ter from the supervisors saying that
they had appointed him Hawaiian in
terpreter in the court at salary of
$50 a month, to be paid through the
County Attorneys department, as was
interpreter and court clerk, and / re-
tanned him as court clerk and instruct
ed him also to act as a special officer,
which he has done. But, when the ap-
propriations were passed last night.
the amount of his salary was cut off
the police appropriation and tackled on
to the County Attorneys appropria-
ton. The amount was small, but not
so small as the action which resulted
in the cut.
Seventeen years ago there were
seventy men in the police, outside of
the office force. During Browns time
the lowest the force was at any time
was forty-eight men and seven Of
ficers. Now we are getting along with
eighteen foot police, eight mounted
men and seven officers, in spite of the
fact that the city is growing and there
is much more ground for the force to
cover. At the start, as soon as as

run the department cheaper than it

hampered in every way and do not,

who depend upon US for protection, nor
fair to me and the men.

WANT THE zoo FOR
4 PUBLIC PARK

The purchase of the Zoo grounds for
ground is proposed by the Kaimuki,
Waialae and Palolo Improvement
Club. the president of which, DR.. w.
G.. Rogers, has addressed letter to
the members of the Mckinley Park
Memorial committee in the matter.
The letter points out that now is the
time to purchase real estate. which is
at bedrock prices and also points out
the desirability of the Zoo site as a
healthful and pleasant public park.
It will be remembered that four years
ago a subscription list was passed
around among the citizens to raise a
fund for the purchase Of a public
Memorial Park, in honor of the mar
tyred president. The list was widely
signed, some $4,000 being raised. A
committee, presided over by Judge
Dole, was chosen to handle the fund,
half of which was spent on a piece Of
land opposite the baseball park on
King street, the other half being de-
posted in the bank to form fund for
the improvement of the grounds The
intention at that time was to make
the money go as far as possible and
then to turn the park over to the Ter
ritory to keep up. The Legislature did
not see it's way clear to assume the
burden, failing even to appropriate
enough for the existing Kapiolani
Park upkeep. The matter was then
tacitly dropped for the time being and
the $500 has been resting in the bank
ever since.
1t is this fund that the improvement
club desires used for the park pur-
chase, saying that this property de-
sired is at the crest of the hill, on the
ridge, at the terminus of the car line
From this block magnificent view is

it dry and healthful. The block con-
tains about seven acres, while an ad-
joining block Of four acres is also OBJ

a small amount, but the appropriation
had been slashed so deeply before that
even a small amount is felt keenly
now, and with the cut comes the i'm

and as unpleasant for us as possible.

ing of the House Committee on Public
Lands which is investigating the Lamar
land exchange that L. L. McCandiess is
the man who offered the suggestion
which led to the subject of an exchange
of the Lanai lands for properties in
Honolulu. Had Mr.. McCandless re-
allied what he was doing when in con-
versation with Commissioner of Public
Lands J. w. Pratt and the amount of
money it would cost him it is highly
probable that he would never have
suggested that the government ex-
change the old fsa market for the
Bishop wharves. That suggestion, ac-
cording to Mr.. Pratt, was acted upon,
but an exchange could not be agreed
upon. Then the Territorial officials
began to look for government property
which could be exchanged for the
wharves and the Lanai lands were sug-
gested However an agreement was
not reached in this matter either and
the matter lay dormant until Superin-
tendent of Public Instruction Babbitt
wanted some school lands in this city.
Then the Lanai lands were offered for
suitable school lands and was taken
advantage Of by Charles Gay. Then
it was that Mr.. McCandless began his
fight which led to an investigation by
a committee of the House of Repre-
sentatives. Mr.. McCandless has had
upon him the truth of the
old proverb Mighty oaks from little
acorns grow.
The committee of the House in
charge of the investigation was called
to order last evening at 7:20 o'clock

APPEALS TO GOVERNOR.
The Maryland Club Of Baltimore Nay Not
Conc into Court

The Maryland Club has applied to
Governor Warfield for nolle pros
qui in the charge of selling liquor on
Sunday, upon which the Court of
Appeals has declared ii must stand
trial in the Criminal Court of Balti-
more City, and. as Attorney General
Bryan has advised the Governor TO
take this course, il is probable that
the club will not be hailed into court
to answer further 10 the criminal
charge.
In the applications to the Governor
to take this course, it is urged that
the action against the Maryland Club
was merely test case and that il con
viction follows, as is almost certain,
the facts being conceded, under the
law, the Maryland Club will not be
able to secure a license for the sale Of
liquor next year. Filed in the case
there is complete statement of the
matter above the signature of R. c.
Hoffman and George May, president
and secretary of the club, respective
ly. From the letters addressed TO the
Governor it appears TO be conceded
that a trial of the case against the
Maryland Club will result in its con-
viction. Under the law the convic-
tion of any offense relating To the
liquor laws precludes the party from
securing a license for the sale OF
liquor for one year from the date of
such conviction. Hence, strong
efforts are being made to secure the
entry of nolle prosqui III the case
by Governor Warield.
