CAR CONDUCTOR
Rideau Ross on Characteristic
Tear Is First Thumped and
Then Arrested.

The police patrol wagon answered a
call from the corner of Beretania and
Emma streets at 6:15 O'Clock last even

arms and shouting curses from the
curb, watched over by a bicycle of
ficer. His face was bloody and he had
apparently received severe dr1bbing.
Blood oozed from his left ear and his
lips We're purple, swollen and cut. He
was without coat and his shirt was
torn and bloody.
Ross hailed the driver of the patrol
and made a move to climb UP to the
seat beside him. resisting violently
when this was not permitted. He was
lifted into the wagon, which was
driven to the police station by way
of Beretania avenue and Nuuanu, Ross
dong his best to jump out and shout
ing filthy language.
At the Hotel street crossing an army
rig in which several ladies We're seat

seized the opportunity to fling an out
rageous epithet at the occupants. At
the station he was registered as
drunk and put below.
What led up to Ross condition was
not clear beyond the statement by the
bicycle officer that the prisoner had
been a passenger on an Emma street

HULA DANCERS
OUT On A
STRIKE
Show for Admiral Was
Cancelled as a
Result.

The hula dancers Of Honolulu are
out on strike and there was no Ha-
waiian performance in the Opera
House last night as a consequence.
What would a Hawaiian performance
amount to without a hula? 1t would
he like Uncle Toms Cabin without
Little Eva, therefore the Opera House
was dark and the advance money TAX
sen in for tickets sold was sorrowfully
returned.
The strike among the fair contor-
tionists came off about four o'clock
yesterday afternoon. The cause was
that the Honorable H NJ. Kaniho, the
impressario, saw a chance to ask for
an advance of wages and had his de-
mand turned down. The fee to be
paid the ladies of the Hawaiian corps
de ballet was two and a half apiece
for the performance. Kaniho jumped
the price to one hundred dollars a
dozen, finally Offering to split the diff
1CIcuCS anu Cell II lllly. " SCl
even the smaller price he called out
the dancers and declared a strike on.
Princess De Fries. under whose man
agement the show was to have been
given, visited the flagship West Vir-
ginia last night, announcing to ADJ
miral Dayton that it was all off and
rendering back the money that had
been collected on board the four cruis-
-ers for seats, amounting in all to
something over two hundred dollars.
The Princess informed the Admiral
that she had not altogether given up
hope of inducing the strikers to return
to their work and the hope is express
.sed that. the delayed performance will
be given before the Big Four leave
these waters.

PAINFUL ACCIDENT
To FATHER CLEMENT

Father Clement met with a serious
accident some days ago, in falling
twenty steps down a flight of stairs.
Fortunately no bones were broken but
the venerable priest, who is seventy
FIVE. years old, was badly shaken up.
He was doing as well as could be ex-
pected yesterday although he must be
laid aside from his duties for some
time.
There is not, nor ever has been, a
harder working clergyman in Honolulu
than Father Clement. He has charge
of four suburban chapels, holding SER
vices in two of them every Sunday
both morning and afternoon in one
and sometimes in two-and every day
in the week he may be seen riding
all over the district on errands OF
mercy and sympathy among the poor.
Nobody is better known and loved in
Honolulu than Father Clement.

LEAVE SUDDENLY
FOR THE COAST
Trans-Pacific Trade Men Take
French Leave on the
nilOnian.

A great deal of mystery surrounds
the departure for San Francisco of
two young men of this city, who made
a sudden and very quiet departure on
the. Hilonian yesterday morning. Har-
ry Tomlins and w. R. Pittenger. both
connected with the Trans-Pacific
Trade, weekly journal issued in this
city and owned by C. r. Buckland, the
present editor of the Hilo Herald, left
by the Matson liner yesterday morn
ing without telling any except one or
two of their most intimate friends of
their intentions.
When the tickets for the trip we're
obtained from Castle & Cooke, the
local agents of the Matson company,
the two did not appear in person but
obtained them through an employe Of
the American Hawaiian Steamship
Company with whom they were
friendly. The desire was expressed
that the names of the two should
not appear in the papers and in fact
should not even be put on the passen-
ger list but this secrecy naturally
could not be observed.
That the business affairs of the
Trade are involved in
the sudden departure of Tomlins and
Pittenger is strongly suspected. C. r.
Buckland was not notified that his
office force was about to leave, or in
fact that they had left, till some of
his friends in Honolulu sent him a
message after the Hilonian
had left port He was surprised to
hear of the sudden departure and has
made arrangements for other parties

When the Hilonian left the dock |
neither Tomlins nor Pittenger was in |
but keeping out of sight of |

el was safely out in the stream. From /
his it can only be inferred that they |
we're very desirous that their absence
hould not be noted by those on shore. I
A. N. Campbell, who has been act
ng as the treasurer of the Trans
'acific Trade, in the absence of Mr..
}uekland, stated yesterday that the
money for advertisements and sub
criptions had not been coming in as
t should recently. and that he had
to write to Buckland TO ask
: there was any explanation of the
natter. The news that both Pittenger
nd Tomlins had left without any
was a complete surprise to
Ir. Campbell and he was unable to
i've any explanation of their strange
ction.
At noon the office of the Trans
'acific Trade was locked and no one
,as there during the afternoon. A
ihinese boy who was employed as
ookkeeper did not show up but viii
robalbly be found this morning. The
rst thing that viii bs done is to
udx the accounts and find if any ex-
1anation of the sudden departure may
e found in this way. The Trans

TOWN OF HARTSELLE
 GROWING RAPIDLY
MODERN RESIDENCES ARE BEING ERECTED IN EVERY QUARTER. FREIGHT RECEIPTS ARE CON- sTANTLY INCREASING.

HartseIe, April 2s.-( -(special)-The in- dustrial and building growth of Hartselle for the last two years has surprised her most sanguine friends. The town Is spreading out in all directions, and sub stantial modern residences are being erected. Something can be gained as to the volume of her business from the fol. lowing: During the month of March forty five carload shipments were made from here, consisting of slaves and headings logs, lumber and cedar poles. The lum- Der shipments are increasing rapidly. Sev- eral new mills have been installed near here recently.
 About 10000 bales of cotton are shipped annually. The freight receipts fer the month of March were three billion pounds. These receipts are growing z Il the time, and the present depot is taxed all the time to accommodate the receipts One hundred and fifty carloads of som- mercial fertilizer were received here this season.
 ' It Is quite likely that a cotttn seed oil mill and guano mixing plant will be erect ed here before another season. The coun- try round about here abounds ht all kinds of timber and it is strange that a furniture factory has not been built hers sooner. Quantities of gum, ash hickory and oak abound and is easily accessible, too. The soil around about here is admir- ably adapted for strawberry culture, and what we need Is some thrifty Germans to further this industry which has all ready been started on a small scale Truck farms can be bought for from Sd to $10 per acre near here.

Centreville, April 2S.-(Special) )-Friday evening Dr. and Mrs. W. T. Walker en- tertained at their pretty new home on College Heights in honor of their sister, Miss Viola Boiling. Whist and sother games at cards were played Refresh ments were served and the evening was in all respects most enjoyable. In the guessing contest D. W. Crawford won the prize. The following were those who attended: Misses Ellen Ashley, Maude Boiling, Lucy Beck, Hattie Fancher, Elm ma Lou James, Fannie Mae Goree. Mary McAlpin, Inez Sinnot and Carrie Walker; Messrs. w. M. Lewis, w. w. Lavender, Alexander Boiling, W. c. Fuller, Edward Vance, O. c. Huff, Jr, and Howard Smitherman.
 At a meeting of the new city council E. H. Crawford was elected marshal. The city authorities have deciled to put Q stop to all kinds of live stock running at large within the town limits.
 It has not yet been decided where the new school building will be located, and it is feared by some that the extreme rivalry which has developed as to the location will endanger the success of the movement to make the proposed building in all respects a credit to the community.
 Solicitor J. F. Thompson left today for Camden, to be present at the spring session of circuit court at that place.

SCARCELY A CLOUD
 MARS THE HORIZON
RELATIONS BETWEEN EMPLOYER AND EMPLOYE IN CHICAGO ARE UNUSUALLY HARMONIOUS. CON- TRACTS ARE RENEWED.

Chicago, April 2S.-The relations be- tween employer and employees were never so harmonious in Chicago as now. In the past on May 1 there has always been some sort of struggle going on between the labor unions and the employers in Chicago, but this year there is scarcely a cloud on the industrial horizon.
 Every union in the building industry, with the exception of the structural iron workers has renewed contracts with em- ployers. and the iron workers expect to reacn a settlement without a strike. Ma chinists have demanded an increase of 9 cents day in wages. but the indications are that there will practically be no trou ble in putting the new schedule into ef- feet.
 Agreements towering all the wood workers mills and factories have been entered into, so that there will be no trouble in tlat line of industry, while the brick makers are now holding confer ences with their employers and will un- doubtedly reach a settlement before next week. Most of the unions of the team sters are working under agreements, and little trouble is expected In that direc- tion. The railroads which recently grant ed wage increases to the men in the train service are now doing the same in their mechaI ical departments

 What seemed to make the spook the ory more plausible was that the tamper- ing with the signals did not begin until after negotiations with the railroad com- pany by Baileys relatives for damage claims had become deadlocked,
 But 1 wouldn't fall for any such thing amajigs in mine. However. the signals up that way continued to play hob with us, n reports n complaints at the main office didn't bring any improvement. There was a reign of terror among the train crews.
