RESTRICTION OF
SALOON LICENSES
The Groggeries at Fishmarket
May Be Refused
Renewals.

A meeting of the Board of License
Commissioners was held yesterday af-
ternoon at which a large number of
applications for licenses were received.
The applications were discussed by the
Board and a number of defects in their
making out were called attention to.
The chief of these was in the fact that
the description of the premises was
not exact, the exact frontage and depth
not being given or the premises in
which it was desired to sell liquor be-
ing exactly described. In this con-
nection attention was called to the fact
that in some of the saloons leantos are
placed outside of the main buildings
and the owners of saloons wishing re-
newals should describe these as well as
their saloon proper.
The saloon nuisance around the FISH
market was discussed and Chiet
of Detectives Taylor was called on for
testimony in regard to the character
of these resorts. He told of the fact
that every Monday morning in the po-
lice court when asked where they got
their liquor, large percentage of those
charged with being drunk stated that
thew had purchased it near the Fish
market.
He also spoke of the fact that it was
unpleasant for women to go to the
Fishmarket on Saturday afternoons on
account of the fact that so many in
toxicated or half intoxicated men were
coming in and out from the low grog-
geries which line King street in that
part of town.
When asked if he thought that to
refuse to issue licenses within block
of the Fishmarket would improve con
ditions. he said that it would If too
manv were not issued in that one sec
tion. There was no decision made on
the matter, when VIII De tdheh w
again at another meeting.
Inspector Fennell took his oath OF
office and will be given a police com
mission by Sheriff Iaukea in order that
he NAV handle his duties more easily
He will take up the matter OF appilea-
tions at once and there is enough work
on hand now to keep him busy for some
time.
Another important matter which was
discussed was that of saloons near the
military reservation at kahauiki. lt
was the opinion of some of the mem
hers of the board that licenses should
be granted in this section when the
troops move there from Camp Mehln-
lev but no action has been taken on
the matter as yet.
The matter of women and children
being in the saloons was taken up ana
attention called to the fact that the
law forbids women and minors to De,
remain in or about - the premises OF
saloons. This section will be enforced
strictly. Attention was also caiieu
to the fact that under the new law
the license inspector, the commissioners
or the police may, on Information
swear ont warrant before the District
Judge and search any premises where
it is thought blind pigs" are beng
conducted.

MUCH SUGAR IS
DELAYED HERE
Advanced Price Will Probably
More Than Pay the
Storage.

Owing to the fact that the shipment
of sugar by the new Tehuantepsc route
has not been as fast as was expected
there is great amount of this article
on hand in these islands at present and
the glut of sugar to be handled here
will probably continue till late in July
and possibly into the month of August.
While this fact would seem to be bad
news, in reality it is good to those IN
terested in sugar here Last year at
this time sugar was worth 3.43, while
at present it is 1856 and the market
is due to keep on going up. The first
months of the year the price is always
low on account of the fact that the big
Cuban crop comes in, and then grad
ually goes up reaching its highest point
about September.
This year the mills in Cuba COM
menced to grind in December, as
against February last year and as the
result prices are higher at the present
time than they were last season. As
the remainder of the crop from these
islands reaches the market the price
should be constantly going up and the
delay in shipping will really make mon
ey for those interested, in spite OF the
fact that they have had to keep the
sugar in storage longer.
At present, according to- the estl-
mates Of Mr.. Atherton, of the Sugar
Factors Co., which handles about 81
per cent of the crop, there are about
$4,000 tons of sugar on these islands
which are waiting to be moved. Last
year on May / there had been 100000
tons moved while this year on the same
date 125,00O tons have left for the
market There have been large
number of sailing vessels here already
and for this reason these figures do not
accurately express the difference be-
tween the two amounts which have
been moved.
The American Hawaiian expected to
move 100000 tons by May but at this
time had only moved $4,000. From
now on, however, there viii be no IN
crease in the amount which will be II
storage here till the end of the season
is reached, as the crisis has been passed
ha faster
So far this month the following ships
have taken out the following sugar ear
goes in tons: Bangalore, 5000; Manga
Reva, 1000; John Ena, 1000; Mexican,
1880; Nevadan, $4,000; Curtis, 29Oo;
Helene, 1000; Irmgard, HOO. Other
big shipments which will go out IN the
near future are, Californian, 5000; MIS-
sourian. 1900; Nebraskan, 5000; D1rl
90. 800. As the output of the mills Oh
the islands is estimated at $4,000 tons
per month. it will be seen that there
is no longer any danger of a greater
olut in storage here than exists al
present.
Several plantations have had to build
new storage sheds in which to Keep
their sugar till it could be shipped
among these being Waialua, Oahu and
those at Kahului The railroad storage
sheds here are well filled and they hao
to refuse to take any more sugar from
the plantations till more boats came IN

NEW YORK, Feb. 7.-Evelyn
Nesbit Thaw told her story today.
To save the life of her husband,
charged with murder, she barred to
the world the innermost secrets of
her soul. 1t was the same story
she told Harry Thaw in Paris in 1903
when he had asked her to become
his wife-the confession of one who
felt it was an insurmountable bar
rier to her becoming the bride of
the man she loved. In the big wit
ness chair she appeared but slip
of a girl, as she told the pitiful story
of her eventful young life in a frank,
unbidden to her big brown eyes and
slowly trickled down her scarlet
cheeks she strove in vain to keep
them back. She forced words from
her trembling lips and by marve-
lous display of courage shook off the
depression which once threatened to
become an absolute collapse. AS the
young wife unfolded the narrative OF
her girlhood and told of the early
struggles of herself and mother to
keep body and soul together, of how
gaunt poverty stood at the door, and
how she was finally able to earn a
livelihood by posing for photograph
ers and artists, she won the MUIR
INJURED sympathies of the vast throng
which filled the court room Then
came the relation of the wreck of
that girlhood Of 16 years of age. It
was the story of her meeting with
Stanford White-the story of a sump-
tuous studio apartment, whose ex-
terror gave no hint of the luxurious
furnishings within. that story of a
glass of champagne, of black, whirl-
ing sensations and of mirrored bed
room walls.
In short, she told the story in the
words: Don't scream so; it is all
over; It is all right" And this was
Stanford White?" The question came
from Delmas. "Yes sir" The still
ness of the great crowd was its own
tribute to the effect of the girls
story. Into the narrative entered
nothing of the woman of the world.

Thaw's face at this time was

NEW YORK, Feb AFTER lying
dormant for some twelve years, the
romance of the late Howell Osborn,
man about town, and Fay Templeton,
opera singer and actress, involving
the question as to their marriage,

actress, both before and after the
death of Howell Osborn, which oc-
Cured in 1895, asserted that she was
married to him, and said she was le-
gally entitled to call herself Fay

Today James Yereance, who was
appointed by Surrogate Fitzgerald to
appralse the value of the estate OF
Osborn. filed his report, and in it de-
scribes Fay Templeton as a legatee

praiser, is entitled, upon the terms
