AFTER LOTS.LONDONS
AT ALEWA TO MARCUS
THE SHARK BACK HERE PREPAR-
ING TO CONTINUE HER LONG
VOYAGE.

Jack London's ketch Shark arrived
at 8 o'clock this morning from Pearl
Harbor where she has been since her
arrival in these waters on May 20. The
marvellous wee craft will remain here
until she clears for Marcus Island, be-
tween two and three thousand miles to
the westward. Captain Rosehill, Of
local fame, brought her up against
southerly winds from Pearl Harbor
and expects to stay with her on her
several years voyage around the world.
The Shark is lying at the head of
the Bishop slip, handy to the Homo
lulu Iron Works where her gasoline
auxiliary is being put into shape. Just
as soon as the auxiliary is cured of it's
indisposition the ketch will be ready to
get away, providing of course, Jack
London and his wife can pull them
selves loose from Honolulu by that
time. They have fallen very much in
love with these islands and London
has a raft of material for his pen ana
there isn't any nature-faking about it
either.
The Londons have a cottage at the
beach not far from the Longworths
summer headquarters and because Mrs
Longworth's papa said London was
nature-faker does not necessarily
throw up an impossible barrier.

APPLICATIONS IN FOR PLACES
NOT TAKEN AND ANOTHER
SALE MAY BE HELD.

1t is probable that within a short
time there will be another sale OF
Alewa Heights lots to dispose of the
thirty-one lots which were not sold at
the sale on Monday. At that time for
ty-nine of the lots were disposed Of
taking most of the desirable, but OF
the thirty-one remaining on which no
bids were offered above the upset
price, there are some very nicely To-
Gated pieces of property.
THE sale on Monday had hardly
been concluded" said Commissioner
of Public Lands Pratt this morning,
before there were people making in
quiries about the remaining lots, stat
ing that for one reason or another they
had been unable to be present at the
first sale and there have been many
inquiries since that time. 1t will be
only a short time until we shall have
to hold another sale and give the peo-
pie a chance at the rest of the prop
erty."
The purchasers of lots at the first
sale are already getting their heads to-
gether with view of getting their
property developed as soon as possible.
1t is probable that an improvement
society will be formed and systematic
methods taken for making the new ad-
dition one of the pretty residence dis
tricts of the city, such as its location
would tend to make it. 1t is proposed
that the lot owners pay in the second
installment of the price of their prop
erty Immediately and insist on the
governments beginning work on the
roads, in order to make the tract ac-
cessable. AS, according to the terms
of the sale, fifty per cent of the amount
received for the land is to be expended
on the property in road work on it, II
a second payment on the property were
made there would be no excuse for any
delay in getting at this work

.WILL TIC COUNTY
LET THEM co ?
RIFLE SHOOTERS WANT LEAVE
OF ABSENCE FOR THE TRIP TO
OHIO.

Whether or not the National Guard
of Hawaii is represented in the great
rifle contest in Ohio, beginning the
2Sth of this month in which all the
States militia as well as the Regular
army, the Navy and the Marine corps
will have teams in competition, will
doubtless depend largely on the stand
which the Oahu County Board of Su-
pervistrs takes in the matter This
arises from the fact that at least ndif
of the best marksmen in the local Ma
tional Guard are strangely enough, en-
ployes of the County for the most part
in the road department. Whether or
not the County can spare six or eight
of its best men, practically all from
the road department is the question
that is giving the boys good deal of
uneasiness.
Out Of the ten men who in the local
competition of the militia succeeded in
winning a sharpshooters badge, two
of these have made a score sufficient
ly high to put them in the expert
marksmen's class, a rank which is ex-
ceedingly high from a marksmens
standpoint These two are Col. Sam
Johnson and Private Luther A. K
Evans, The latter made his expert
record this morning, and did 1t in good
style too, making SS out of so at the
10OO-yard target, and A out Of so at
the SOO-foot target. The requirement
is 35 for each of these ranges.
Private Ed. Duvauchelle is the only
one of the ten sharpshooters who has
not shot for his Expert honors, all but
the two above mentioned having tried
and failed.
Three men of the Sharpshooter's
class tried for the expert honoTs yes
terday, but failed by narrow margin,
These were Capt. Chas. M. Coster
who lost out by only one point; Capt
Tommie p. Cummins, who fell down
by two; and Sergeant A. r. Phillips.
The regiment now contains two ex-
pert rihemen and eight sharpshooters
as follows:

Dillingham; last night gave the fol-
lowing account of the accident:
1--WE were coming down Beretania,
myself and the autos of Governor
Carter and J. r. Gait, and Stacked up
to cross Emma street. The other two
machines went on the mauka side of
the car standing on the switch, while
1 decided to go on the opposite side.
The way was clear and I had just
thrown on the speed to pass when the
man stepped off the rear of the car
and directly before my machine. I
swung out as far as l could, running
up on the curb to avoid the accident
but the street was too narrow to clear
] put on the brake at once and stopped
as soon as possible"
After the accident Dillingham; stay
ed with the doctors and Mrs. Litch-
field. He did not want the other au-
tomobilists to get any of the blame
Sheriff Iaukea and Chief of Detec-
tives Taylor made a preliminary inves-
tigation of the accident this morning,
examining the eyewitnesses referred
to. The Sheriff stated this morning
tbet +hare was altopether too much in
difference to the man on foot on the
part of the drivers of automobiles. He
did not refer, necessarily, to this par
ticular case. AS he was talking red
car, without a number, rounded into
Bethel street from King street (dbOut
1905 this afternoon), narrowly escap-
ing running into a carriage which was
on the right side of Bethel street, in
front of the McCandless building. The
driver should have made a wide circle,
irstead he rounded the corner as close
to the curb as possible without climb
ing on to the sidewalk. "Well have
to get after them in earnest" remark"
ed the Sheriff
On the other hand, an automobilist
remarked that it was up to people to
look where they were going when they
get off cars or crossed streets.
The fact that, in last nights acci-
don't, autos passed car on the SWITCH
On both sides, is considered by the po-
lice as a piece of recklessness.

s. S. Litchfield is in a most critical
condition as the result of being knock
ed down and rolled about 40 feet on
Beretania street near Emma, about 8
o'clock last night, by an automobile
driven by Walter F. Dillingham; and
in which Mrs. Oscar S. Straus, wife Of
the Secretary of Commerce and Labor,
was a passenger.
Since the accident the victim has
been conscious only for short periods.
Doctor Herbert, in charge of the case,
believes that he will recover, but his
condition is very critical.
A Punahou car, going into town, was
about coming to a stand on the switch
near Emma street, waiting for the
outbound car, when three automobiles
approached from town at a good speed,
two of them, those of Governor Carter
and J. R. Gait, continuing out on the
left hand side of the road (the wrong
side), while the car driven by Dilling-
ham crossed in front of the car ap-
preaching from town and put on speed
after crossing Emma street to pass the
car on the switch on the right hand
side of the road, between the Hawaiian
Hotel grounds and the track.
According to Borges, an employe of
the shop Of Quinn, the plumber, on
Beretania street, Mr. Litchfield jump
ed off the car on the switch before it
had come to stop and the rapidly
approaching auto of Dillingham; swerv-
ed to the right, going up on to the
sidewalk to get out of the way, pre-
sumably, but not in time to prevent
the left mud-guard of the machine
from knocking Litchfeld down. Wse
lamp of the car then seemed to catch
Litchfield and hold him from the
ground for a moment, when he was
dropped and rolled along for thirty or
forty feet. Borges considered that the
Dillingham; machine was going at near
ly full speed when it had crossed En-
ma street and turned in between the
car on the switch and the Hawaiian
Hotel grounds where Litchfield lived.
Dillingham's machine is a big Stod-
dard-Dayton. The motorman of the
Alakea street car, who also saw the
accident, states that the automobiles
as near as he could see, were racing.
Mr.. Dillingham; denies that he was
racing. He says he had just thrown
on the speed after crossing Emma
street. Secretary Straus was a pas
senger in one of the other machines,
his wife being with Dillingham;. Mrs
Straus suffered to a considerable ex-
tent from the shock of the accident.
She was taken from Dillingham's ma
chine and placed in one of the others
these machines going out to the Sea-
, side and the Moana.
Mrs. Straus is naturally very much
upset. Governor Carter later went ia
the Office of DR.. HOdgins to make in
quiry concerning Litchfield.
The force of the blow suffered by
Litchfeld is indicated by the twisted
mud-guard and bent lamp. He was
carried to the Office of DR.. Hodgins
where Doctors Herbert, Hodgins ant
Cofer attended him. 1t was thought
at first that he was dead. AS it is, he

By Captain o. F. Bolles.

There is not a steamship on the Pa
cific Coast which has enough bulk
heads to keep her afloat in the event
of a collision. The law requires three
bulkheads. These the Columbia had,
but at best they are ineffective. A
great deal depends upon the nature of
the injury to the vessel. When the
side of a ship is crushed in like an
egg shell, all the compartments made
would not serve to keep her afloat.
The bull1heads on the steamships on
this coast do not extend above the
main deck, thus allowing the water
overfowing one compartment to flow
into the adjoining one and so on.
The Columbia was inspected by Mr..
Bulger and myself within the last
year She was as good a boat as ever
sailed on the coast. She was COM
paratively new and well equipped. l

Steaming at full speed in a fog
the old story of trying to make records
is said to have been responsible for
the terrible Columbia disaster. Both
the captains concerned were violating
the law regarding half speed during
fog, when the accident happened.
They had full speed on, although the
fog was absolutely impenetrable by
eyesight. One lost his life and the
other is now being tried.
Captains Bowles and Bulger, Federal
Inspectors, who would naturally hold
the investigation, are now in Honolulu.
They were in San Francisco when the
accident happened, however. AS they
were about to depart, the investigation
was undertaken by Supervising In
spector Captain John Birmingham.
Captain Bowles and Bulger both de-
clined to discuss the probable results
of the hearing. Captain Birmingham

Upon the Charge of Keeping
Negro Gambling House
on Tarragona St.
HEARING CONSUMED ALL OF
YESTERDAY, BUT THE JURY
REQUIRED ONLY ABOUT FIF.
TEEN MINUTES IN WHICH TIC
FIND A VERDICT OF GUILTY.

James L. Long, charged with being
part proprietor in a place kept for
the purpose of gambling, was hound
guilty by a jury in the Criminal Court
late yesterday afternoon, the jury be-
ing out only about fifteen minutes.
The case. which was a very inter-
esting one by reason OF the fact that
Long was tried at the term two
months since, the jury failing TO agree
and a mistrial being entered at that
time, H. II. Kelly, Longs partner in
the business, was convicted and
sentenced.
Stronger Case.
When court convened yesterday the
case was called, and it consumed the
entire day. Solicitor LofUin conduct
ed a vigorous prosecution, while Geo.
| +. Morgan and Chas. H Laney APP
peared for the defendant and con-
tested every point made ny the state.
| The state, however, made out a much
stronger case than at the previous
term, more witnesses appearing and
their line of testimony being mucn
clearer and more convincing.
An "AIibi' Defense.
The defense attempted TO prove
an alibi in the case by proving that
Long was not present at the time
the partnership was formed to con
duct the establishment, but this had
| but little weight with the jury. The
solicitor showed that Long, who
claimed to be innocent, disappeared
| from the city when he learned that
an information had been filed against
! him, and was later found in Mis-
sissippi, where he was arrested.
Summing Up.
In the arguments, this fact was
brought out very strongly by the so
/ licitOr who also referred to charges
| that had been made against the de-
| PENDANT in South Florida, where he
/ had formerly resided. The counsel
for the defendant made strong pleas
for their client and dwelled upon the
mistrial which had resulted in the
former trial.
1t is regarded as hardly probable
| that a motion for a new trial VIII
be made, but on this counsel for de
PENDANT have not yet determined,
stating that they would first have TO
! look over the records to ascertain if
there is ground for moving for a new
| trial or taking an appeal to the SUI
preme court
A Negro Gaming Place.
The gambling house, with which
Long was connected, according to the
verdict of the jury, was operated on
| Tarragona street and patrOnized sole
ly by negroes. Kelly, who was con-
victed some months since, was the
other partner in the place, and the
two employed a negro to run the
house Kelly did not attempt TO leave
the city, when the information was
filed against him, but surrendered 10
the authorities, and is now working
out his time.
Long was not sentenced yesterday
afternoon. The jury in this case was
composed of J. w. CoOns. Jas. c. Wat
son, James Nix, d. B. Gonzalez,
Joseph Riera, and Harry w. Gibbs.
