NEW PUBLIC
BUILDING HERE
Plans Are Ready for Labora
tory for Animal Industry
Division.

An addition to Territorial public
buildings will be one of the earliest
works of the current fiscal period. This
is to be a laboratory for the division
of animal industry in the Bureau Of
Agriculture and Forestry. The S1ruc-
ture will he erected on the grounds
of the Government Nursery, King
street, near the headquarters building
of the bureau. 1t will cost about $l61O.
There is an appropriation of $4,000 for
the laboratory, but this includes the
cost of equipment. Superintendent OF
Public Works Holloway stated yester-
day that the plans for the building
were completed and bids for its con-
struction would be advertised next
week.
If a quorum can be mustered there

HOTEL BUSINESS
ON LAST LEGS
Failures in This Line Are Ex-
peCted by Japanese
Residents.

K. Haga, the proprietor of the Kanj-
yo hotel in this city, has sold out his
business to Kawahara. The hotel will
still keep the same name as before.
The interesting part Of the transaction
is in the fact that the japanese COM
munity sees in this the first of a num-
Der of either like transactions or fail
ures in the japanese hotel business in
this city. In speaking Of this matter
yesterday a prominent Japanese said:
THE Japanese hotel business in this
city is bound to grow very much less
and I look for many failures in this
line. It is practically certain that the
Japanese government will diminish
the number of immigrants allowed TO
come here from Japan and the hotel
keepers viii naturally suffer from this.
The chartering of the steamers to
take Japanese to Canada is looked on
as a desperate measure which is being
taken by the japanese hotel keepers
to pull out of the bad hole which many
of them are in financially. They see
no future ahead in the hotel business
here and are making an effort to get
enough money, through the sending
away of emigrants, to get out Of their
bad position.

JAPANESE DIVINE
MADE A MISTAKE

a peculiar incident occurred at the
Hackfeld dock yesterday when the Chi
ma came in. Rev. Okamura, the minis
ter in the local japanese Congregational
church. was on hand to meet an assist
ant who was to be sent here by Rev.
Kosaki, of Toxic. He asked for XII
kuchi. which was the name of his as
sistant, and was told that he was on
board. He waited till that gentleman
came down the gangplank and then
greeted him, asking many questions in
regard to the missions in Japan. Mr..
Kikuchi responded saying that the mis-
sions were a great success and they
talked for some little time before the
Christian preacher discovered that he
was talking to a Buddhist priest, of the
same name as his expected assistant.
The latter had not come on the steamer.

To WASHINGTON
Privilege of Receiving Foreign
Passports in Hawaii
Is Revoked.

Hawaiian citizens intending to take
foreign tours have one item in their
preparations which they Will need more
time to attend to hereafter than would
have been the case any time for the
past three years or over.
President Roosevelt, by a stroke of
the pen-compelled, it would appear, by
a new law--has abolished the privilege
of obtaining foreign passports in this
Territory. Henceforth these must be
obtained from Washington. This is this
fourth year since the Governor of Ha.
waii was authorized to issue passports
to American citizens residing in this
Territory who desired such for travel
ing abroad.
Acting Governor Atkinson received in
last mail an executive order made by
the President on June Is to the effect
that the authority of the Governor OF
Hawaii, conferred under the provisions
of Sections 4O75 and 407S, Revised Stat
utes of the United States, is by a re-
cent enactment of Congress revoked.
Therefore. the order directs, apphca-
tions for the issuance of passports to
American citizens in Hawaii should
be made-in the same manner as that
provided for the issuance of passports
to citizens in other parts of the United
States-to the Secretary of State al
Washington.
No doubt the privilege of obtaining
passports from the Governor here mas
been quite a convenience, Judging by
the considerable number of citizens
who have avaUed themselves of it. Ac-
cording 10 the passport record oook
kept by Private Secretary Creedon, no
less than 254 Of these safe conducts
have been issued.

The following is from a Fresno
paper:
Alexander Campbell McKeever, pas
tor of the Christian church of this city,
viii resign his charge on the lst of
September after seven years of hard
and earnest toll. From here the Rev,
McKeever will go to Honolulu, H. l.,
to take charge of the First Christian
church in that city.
The announcement that he would
resign on the LIST of September was
made Immediately after last Sunday
mornings church services. In making
his announcements preceding the ser
mon, the Rev. Mr.. McKeever said that
there would be a meeting of the
church board Immediately after the
morning services. Few if any of the
members suspected why the meeting
was called, and the surprise was gen
uine when the news was circulated
around at the evening service.
The Rev. Mr.. McKeever took hold of
his work in Fresno on the 1st of sep
tember, in the year of 1900. He sue
ceeded the Rev. w. H. Martin, who
had been pastor of the church for
eleven years. Previously to coming
here he was located at Garden City,
Kansas, and in his earlier days, had
held many pastorates throughout the
Central West states, particularly in
the state Of Missouri.
Rev. Mr.. McKeeyer was born N
Pennsylvania and is a Iineal descendant
of Alexander Campbell, the founder of
the Christian church, for whom he is
named. He received his education at
Bethany college in West Virginia and

NEXT
JAPANESE
BOAT
Coming for More Labor
for the Canadian
Northwest.

A steamer to carry eight hundred
japanese laborers to Vancouver is due
to arrive here on the Goth from San
Francisco. She will remain in the har-
bor for three days, being scheduled to
sail for the north on the 29th. This
steamer is the Indiana, a sister ship
of the s. 5. Ohio, which brought the
Los Angeles excursion here and which
Is now piled up on the rocks of Alaska.
Fred Maxine, druggist, is the nominal
charterer of the vessel and the leader
of the new movement, his attorneys
being the new firm of Gear & Harri-
SON. Mr.. Maxine expects to carry
through his venture without any of the
trouble experienced by the charterers of
the 5. ). humeric and has made it
clear in the advertisements which ap-
peared in all of the Japanese papers
but one yesterday that he is not try
ing to take away any of the labOrers
from the plantations, being in the field
for only those japanese who have come
here with the express purpose of sail
ing for Canada at the first opportunity.
In the first place the Indiana is com
ing here expressly for the purpose of
taking away these Japanese. She Is
of American register and comes down in
ballast, so that there Will be no de-
lay in quarantine, inspection or Gus
TOMS Her sole work here will be to
take on the Japanese Outgoers as soon
as possible and clear out, thus avoid
ing any of the strings that kept the
Kumeric loafing in the stream and in
the outer harbor.
This viii not be the first call of the
Indiana to Honolulu, the vessel having
been under charter to the government
as an army transport during the Span
ism American war and on the run, to
the Philippines. She is an iron screw
steamer, 2561 tons, and owned by the
Indiana Steamship Company. Length,
343 feet; beam, 43 feet, and depth,
299 feet.
This is the vessel mentioned last
week by the Advertiser as on the way
to Honolulu from Portland, Oregon, for
eight hundred Japanese, at the time
the information was given it being sup
posed that the steamer would come di-
rect to this port instead of putting
in at San Francisco.
The fare to be charged for pas
sage on the Indiana will be $36, and
the charterer has announced that he
will take only those who actually have
the necessary $25 to produce when call

at one time held a chair in that in
stitution.
Rev. Mr.. McKeever has taken active
part in the religious affairs of this
city Besides being hard and con
sistent worker in his own church, he
entered in cooperation with pastors
Of other churches for the religious
betterment of the town. He was a
prominent member of the Ministerial
union and was at one time the presi-
dent of that organization. During the
summer when meetings in the park
were held, Rev Mr. McKeever was al
ways ON hand, on many occasions
either presiding or delivering the ser
mon of the evening.
Those who attended his church re-
garded him as strong speaker and
thoroughly conscientious in everything
that he said or did During his pas
torate in this city the membership
of the Christian church has IN
creased many per cent, so much, in
deed. that it was deemed necessary
by the congregation to build another
church This church has been com
pleted and is known as the North
Side Christian church. In the raising
of funds to Guild this church, the Rev.
Mr.. McKeever took leading part and
it was through his convincing manner
in preaching that the membership of
the first church increased to such an eX-
tent that the North Side church be-
came a necessity.
The Rev. Mr.. McKeever was popular
among the members of his congrega-
tion and it Is with regret that the
members will accept his resignation.
No steps as yet have been taken to
select his successor by the church board.

CHURTON GOES
OFF SUDDENLY
Leaves Things in His Office
in Fairly Straight
Shape.

Robert Churton, Stenographer and
Typewriter"-the neat little sign is still
there, over the entrance to the office
suite on the second floor of the little
brick building on Fort street near King.
Yet anyone wanting the services of
stenographer or a typewriter would
climb the narrow staircase, to which
the sign invites, in vain so far as the
man named on the sign is concerned.
For M-. and Mrs. Churton and infant
departed in the barkentine Irmgar6
for San Francisco yesterday morning.
And thereby the Honolulu Messenger
Service, lately started in the same Of
flee with the stenography and type
writing, loses its founder and pro-
prietor.
Mr.. Churton's departure was a sur
Prise to mis- staff on first hearing of
il from an Advertiser reporter late
yesterday afternoon, as well as to
Henry Davis, accountant,-from whom
he had rented the premises-when,
little earlier, he found a note on his
desk with the message Goodbye"
from Mr.. Churton. Still, it was a de-
parture lacking some of the elements
of a "skip-out." Mr.. ChurtOn had
booked passage for himself, wife and
children at the office of the Irmgard's
agents, F. A. Schaefer & Co., some
days before. He not only paid the
first-class fare of $50, but prior to sail
ing put up So additional. This was to
protect the ship in the event of the
81 alien head money fee being requir-
ed of the couple by the immigration
officers at San Francisco. AS previ-
ously announced aliens who are ex-
empt from this fee on landing in Ha-
wall may have to pay it if they mi
CRATE later to the mainland. Mr.. Chur-
ton is an Englishman who formerly
lived here some years but left for the
Colonies and returned, after a short
absence, within about a year past.
He paid all his rent in advance"
Mr.. Davis said last night, "and has
always acted in a gentlemanly and
straightforward manner. When Ward
left the premises some time ago,
Churton came and offered to share
one-haIf the expenses of the office. He
does not owe the office anything.
He never said anything to me about
leaving and I was surprised, on re-
turning to the office this afternoon, to
find a note from him on my desk say
ing Goodbye You know ne got some
work from the Legislature and when
that was over he started his messen-
ger service. After getting his note I
spoke to the boys about him. They
said he owed the wages for last week,
but there was enough coming in to
pay them.
II suppose he simply found he could
not make it go and left for the Coast
to better himself. Really, 1 don't
know of anybody who holds anything
against him. I have always regard
ed him as an honorable young man."
S. Kay, the office clerk, was found
operating a typewriter when the re-
porter called. There were two messen-
ger boys in, awaiting calls as usual.
Kay, when asked if he knew his en-
ployer had left in the Irmgard, said
he did not. When convinced that it
was so, he promptly decided what he
would do.
Il will take charge of the office N.Y.
self" the young man said. THE mes
senger service will be continued here

MELINE IS ACQUITTED
Appears to Have Been Victim Of False
Friends.


The jury that tried Everett Meline
yesterday afternoon in the municipal
court OH the charge of having wilfully
destroyed personal property at the knit
ting mill, retired at about five o'clock
and after being out about fifteen min
utes brought i'll verdict of acquittal.
The principal evidence against the
young man was furnished by r. w.
Scott and Arthur JensOn, who had al
ready pleaded guilty to a similar charge.
They said that he broke up and threw
out of the window waste boxes taken
from the spinning mules. Afterwards
they admitted to Sheriff Donahue, so the
latter states, that they had falsifed Or
the stand and that Meline had nothing
whatever to do with the affair. He had
been with them and they wanted him
to be lin the same boat with them. He
had previously offered to stand his share
of their fines. HI. L. Schmitt, attorney
for Meline, threatens to bring action for
perjury against Scott and Jenson.
Scott and Jenson were each fined
SIS and costs, and in default OF payment
were committed to the county Jail for
twenty-one days for destroying per-
sonal property of another. The court
reprimandcd them.
