LIMIT AREA
FOR LICENSES
Some Saloons May Be
Forced to Close
Temporarily.

The Liquor License Commission for
| Oahu county held it's first business
meeting yesterday afternoon in the
basement of the Executive building.
All the members Of the board were pre-
sent, c. G. Ballentyne acting as chair
There was no decisive action taken but
number of important subjects were
discussed and decisions will be reached
at d meeting which will be held this
afternoon. All members of the commits
sion were present, as follows: Chair
man G. G. Balletyne, Secretary A. r.
Campbell, John Lucas, Carlos A. Long
and Joseph Gilman.
The appointment of an inspector was
discussed but no one was selected,
there being several names brought be-
fore the meeting as suggestions The
matter will be taken UP again today.
Perhaps the most important subject
of discussion was in reference to limit
ing the area in which licenses in this
city should be granted. The sugges-
tion that the area selected should be
bounded by the waterfront, Punchbowl
street, Beretania avenue, Liliha street,
King street, and the Nuuanu
stream was made. If this plan
should be carried through it would
cut out the saloons in the Iwilei dis
trict No definite decision was made
on this matter either and the COM
mission will take further time before
making any decided rule.
Attention is called to the fact that
according to law all applications must
be accompanied by written consent of
a majority of the owners of the prop
erty within 1000 feet of the place where
it is proposed liquor shall be sold, un-
less the same is within half a mile of
a first or second-c1ass postoffice, when
the distance shall be $50 feet. After the
filing of the application the inspector
must investigate and made his report
to the commission in writing. The COM
mission will then order the application to
be advertised for a term of four weeks
and appoint day for the hearing of
the application which must be at least
four weeks after the date of the first
publication. The commission is allow
ed ten days after the hearing in which
to either refuse or grant the license.
From this it will be seen that if ap
p1cdtiOn SHoul uDe i1due at once the
license asked for could not be grant
ed till nearly the middle of June,
wherefore it behoves those whose IL
censes expire in the near future to
hurry in their applications, otherwise
they may find themselves compelled TO
close their places of business for some
weeks. In fact this is practically GER
tain to happen to some holders whose
licenses expire within the next four
weeks and cannot be renewed under !
the law till after that time.
The commission is having a notice |
in this regard that the sal |
oonkeepers may know just where they
stand in the matter. 1t will probably t
De issued within the next day or two.

SAN FRANCISCO, May I5.--
Abe Ruef today changed his plea
OF not guilty, which was entered
on the record, and pleaded
guilty of extortion in the French
restaurant case.
The action Of Ruef produced
a profound sensation and came
after a change Of venue had
been denied and the taking of
testimony was about to begin.
Ruef made his statement 10
Court, promising to reform and
tears filled his eyes as he
spoke. During the recess that
followed Immediately Ruef fell
in a faint.
Sentence will be pronounced
a week hence.
SAN FRANCISCO, May I6.---
Ruef pleaded guilty on account
of sickness and to save his
family. He said he would ex-
pose those who entered yoIun-
tarily into corruption and pro-
tect those who were involun-
tary participants in the pre-
vailing graft. Conditions had
forced him to desert his poIisi-
Cal ideals. He had wished to
shake Schmitz two years ago,
but had been forced to retain
the connection so as to pre-
serve the party machine. Prob
ably Ruef will get a light SEN
tence. II is expected that he
will be a witness before the
grand jury.

 He put his question with directness that startled her. ?.
 Pardon my inquisitiveness, but do you have two small moles on your neck under your left ear?"
 His inquiry seemed to her irrelevant to the point of madness.
 'What has that to do with it?"
 ''To do with what?'
 ''With anything. I mean what do you want to know for?'
 ''To be able to identify you as the daughter of your father. Please tell me-"
 "Yes, have"
 May I see them?"
 She turned her head and he saw the small dark spots on her white neck.
 "Thank you. If you had the least idea what those two spots may mean to you, little girl!-now, if I don't go away at once I shall be tempted to tell you the whole thing. It will be an in- finitely better story, I confidently be- lieve, if keep it until my return"
 He clasped her hand, which rested cold in his own. Then he left her for few hours sleep before his departure In the early morning.
