LEE LET'S RIVALRY
WITH ANAN|As

AS a denial of the attempted prlpery
of Chief of Detectives Taylor, exposed
during the week, it is understood that
Lee Let, the would-be briber, is pre-
paring a statement to be given out. In
This statement. he will attempt to ex-
plain his share in the matter by saying
that Taylor approached him for loan.
After listening to the pleading of the
Chief he advanced him fifty dollars
the sum that Taylor obtained on the
night of Saturday of last week.
How the Chinaman will explain that
he gave this money without obtaining
a receipt in any form remains to be
seen. The evidence of the fact that
TAYLOR did get this amount of gold
coin is too complete for Lee Let to at
tempt any denial

WOULD BRIBE THE POLICE.

That an offer has been made to bribe
the police of Honolulu will not be a
surprise to those who know the Chi
nese character and prevalence Of gam
bling throughout the Territory among
this class of our population.
Both the Chinese and japanese look
upon gambling as their right and prac-
tise It to a far greater extent than do
the white race. The japanese how
ever confine their gambling among the
members of their race and seldom en-
tice others to join them, while very
great number of Chinese who are ap-
parently carrying on perfectly ligiti-
mate business have concealed about
their persons, tickets I'm some kind OF
gambling scheme that they sell to
anyone whom they think they can
trust. and what is worse they often
entice women and children to become
their patrons in this demoralizing
trade.

WILL JAPANESE
SNUB FLEET?
Anti Consular Faction
to Revenge Ane-
gawa Sights.

The Japanese residents of Honolulu
are not falling over themselves in their
eagerness to welcome the coming jap
anese squadron and this conduct on
their part, so different from that shown
by them prior to the coming OF the
Anegawa-go. has caused no little Won
derment. The reason for 1t is that the
officers of the Anegawa-go left the Ho-
noiulu Japanese feeling sore over what
the little brown men here consider an
intentional slight.
1t will be remembered that when that
training ship was in these waters the
Japanese residents raised a consider
able amount of money and spent it
lavishly in welcoming and entertain
ing their ellow-countrymen- 1t viii
also be remembered that there was
certain amount of friction between the
citizens committee appointed to attend
to the entertainment Of the visitors
and the Japanese consul. In fact the
request of the consul that the people
suppress their exuberance was ignor-
ed. The Japanese went about it in
their own way and threw their part or
the town open for the Anegawa-go OF
ficers and crew.
Then came the time for the sailors
TO reciprocate and it was announced
that the officers would hold a recep-
tion aboard their vessel. The invita-
tions TO this, however, were sent out
to only a few Japanese and those Few
the ones most prominently identified
with the consular people. There We're
many invitations sent out to the haoles,
but the members of the committee
which had entertained the Anegawa-go
men and those who had dug deepest
IN foot the bills for the entertainment
were passed over.
Thus it happens that the coming
SQUADRON will be passed up in turn by
the Japanese public. They do not in
tend to be snubbed again and are max
ing no effort to do anything Tor the
sailors. There will be some private en-
tertaining but nothing of public ma
ture.

every one of them. Most of them had

FriCk Denies That
BribeS Were Given

OAKLAND, March 1s.-Robert N
Frick OF the firm Of Thomas. Gerstle,
Frick & Beedy, counsel for the Home
Telephone Company, said:
For myself and for my firm, which
is the legal advisor OF the Home Tele-
phone Company, I say most emphat-
ically that I do not believe the stories
OF bribery and misuse Of money which
are in the air. These rumors and re-
ports have been current for months.
know nothing about any bribery of
Supervisors or any one else, so far as
the Home Telephone Company is con-
cerned, or any other company.
If the name Of our firm is mixed up
in the Grand Jury investigation, we are
not responsible for that. AS for deny
ing statements of wrongdoing, it seems
10 me as though one is being asked TO
accept a mere rumer and then to deny
something that he knows nothing
about. The Home Telephone Company
was granted a franchise after half a
dozen public hearings and after argu-
ments had been presented in public
the proceedings covering several
months, so that the whole community
could know what was going on. The
franchise was sold to the Home Tele-
no opposition bidding.
subsequently, this company gave
$4,000 to the San Francisco relief fund
corporation, and we hold the receipt
Of that corporation and a personal let
ter of thanks from James D. Phelan
for the donation I feel satisfied that
a public Misunderstanding as to that
donation gave rise to the many rumors
which have been current know moth

other corporation Mr.. Thomas, the
head Of our firm, has been in the prac-
tice Of law for thirty years and occu-
pies a high position at the bar.
feel that his stanoing should be a
guarantee OF clean dealing"
Frick was asked as to the cost OF
the Home Telephone Company's fran
chises IN other nearby cities. He said
I'VE secured the Oakland franchise for
$35,400, after a contest and that in
Berkeley for $4,000. There was hard
fight in Berkeley, the opposition MAX
ing a last stand there, as it was q
crucial point"

Graft More Than
Million Dollars
Vast Sum Paid to the
City Officials by
Corporations

Positive figures showing graft far IN
excess Of what has really been calcu-
lated on were laid before the. Grand
Jury yesterday. From the United Rail-
roads Ruef and his Mayor and Super
visOrs received s450.O00; from the Pa
cihc States Telephone Company $780,
600; from the Home Telephone Com
pany, 100000; from the San Francisco
Gas and Electric Company, $4,000;
water companies, S25.000; fight trust.
$4,000, and from other sources sums
which bring the total to a staggering
figure The facts were first divulged
through the confessions of Supervisors
Lonergan and BoxtOn. Other Super
visors, when confronted with the facts
in the Grand Jury room added their
confessions TO those of their brothers
in graft.
AS told to the Grand Jury, the
United Railroads fund was distrib-
uted as follows: Ruef. sl75,oOo;
Schmitz, $4,000; Supervisor Gal
lagher, $4,000; former Supervisor
Wilson, $4,000: Supervisor Coleman,
$4,000; other members of the board,
$4,000 apiece. OF the Pacific States
Telephone Company Doodle, each Su-
pervisor received $4,000 after Ruef
and the Mayor had received their rake
off Each Supervisor received $4,000
from the Home Telephone Company,
$3.50 from the gas company, $500 from
the fight trust, and sums from other
sources which have not yet been re-
ported in detail
The debauch of bribery began al
most the very day the new board took
Office. The fight trust was formed at
once, and one Of the earliest acts of
the board was the deal witt the fight
promoters. After that came the gas
company deal, in which the rate was
placed at s5 cents, instead Of rs cents.
This deal had barely been consum-
mated when the United Railroads be-
gan preliminary arrangements to pur-
cnase the board. Ruef held out for a
high price and got II. He put the deal
through under cover OF the fire.
At the same time Ruef and the Mayor
were dealing with the United Railroads
they were negotiating with both tele-
phone companies. They were selling
themselves both ways, receiving coin
from one company in specially engaged
apartments and at the same time taking
it from the rival amid less sumptuous
surroundings.
The water deal was a later develop
ment, but ii was the intention of Ruef
to make il the crowning achievement
of his regime. The exposure, however,
interfered.
According to Francis ]. Heney, il is
the intention Of the prosecution to di-
rect its forces particularly against the
bribe- givers. The developments of yes
terday open up a tremendous field and
promise to keep the courts of the city
busy for months and possibly years to
come
