RUSSIAN FRANK
PASSES AWAY

Frank Lucweiko, better known as
Russian Frank" died yesterday after
noon at his residence in this city. He
has been a resident of Honolulu for
on the waterfront for a long time. He
had trouble with the Federal authori-
ties on the matter of disputes with
sailors over board bills on several oc-
casions. At the time of his death he
had obtained writ of mandamus from
the circuit court ordering the payment
of a 1880 claim, which was passed on
favoraply by the Legislature, to the
overriding of the veto by Governor
Carter of the item. The Territory took
an appeal from the decision to the Su-
preme Court.
The funeral win be held after SER
vices at the Catholic cathedral, from
II. H. Williams undertaking parlors
this afternoon at 1870, the burial being
later at Pearl City. The deceased left
wife. his only relation in the city
as far as could be discovered. Some
days before his death. Frank had DR..
McLennan call in Attorney A ).
Humphreys to arrange his affairs. He
is commonly reputed to have laid by a
snug hoard of money. The widow is
very frail. Lucweiko is said to have
been a native of Poland and was prob
ablv about sixty-five years old al
death.

ASKED FOR REBATE
BEFORE He SAILED

SAN FRANCISCO, August 11.-Uni-
ted states Attorney Devlin yesterday
received eablegram from Secretary
Straus, head of the Department of
Commerce and Labor, who is at Homo
lulu, requesting that he ask the Treas
ury Department to remit the fine of
$1,000 imposed on the Occidental and
Oriental Steamship Company for vio-
lating the coastwise laws in bringing
Secretary Straus and his party from
Honolulu to this port on the steamer
Asia.
The Asia is a British steamer and is
not allowed to carry passengers from
one American port to another. She
left Honolulu Friday. It will be some
time before an American vessel will
leave there for this port and as the
Secretary was anxious to get here as
soon as possible with his party of four
others, he took passage on the Asia.
In all such cases the steamship COM
pany collects the amount of the fine
in advance and $1,000 had to be deposit
ed with the regular fares. 1t is
common thing to have the fines remit
ted by the Washington officials if the
parties have sufficient influence. When
Commissioner of immigration Sargent
returned from Honolulu a few months
age he came on Japanese steamer.

REAR RANGELIGHT
SITE IS SETTLED
Governor Frear and Captain
Dwell Agree on the
Subject.

An agreement has been reached be-
tween Governor F'rear and Captain OF
well representing the War Department
and the Lighthouse Board as to the
location of the rear range light for
finding the entrance to the harbor.
Captain Slattery, Captain Otwell's pre-
decessor, had selected a point on Fort
street and the esplanade as the Ioca-
ton and the front range light had
been located and it's construction be-
gun in accordance with this. Governor
Garter objected to this positin in the
street and offered a site on a lot just
mauka of the Oceanic wharf. This
was objected to as it would be behind
the wharf shed, and vessels at wharves
to the seaward of it would interfere
with its usefulness.
The site agreed on is approximately
twenty-five feet from the outer end
of the Fort street wharf on the Wal
kiki side. The light will be supported
on a tower about eighteen feet square
and will stand in the center of a rec
tangle about thirty feet square.
Territorial Surveyor Wall, who was
with the party when the sites were
visited yesterday morning, will send
men down this morning to survey off
accurately and mark the position of
the site chosen. The work on the front
range light will be resumed at once.
It was stopped pending the settlement
as to the rear range light, as it might
have to be moved to conform with the
site to be finally selected. The new
site, however, does not require any
change in the location of the front
range light and so work on it can
proceed as soon as approval Of the new
site of the rear light is approved.
Both Captain Slattery and Captain
Orwell were much impressed with the
original site in Fort street. Captain
Orwell had prepared plans for the sup
porting tower to be highly ornamental.
1t was to be built not solid structure
but structure of four columns so that
teams could drive beneath it, thus rec
ducing the obstruction it presented to
the use of the street, and it was pro.
posed that the $4,000 balance of the
Mckinley fund should be used in MAJ.
ing it artistic and a memorial.

'Scrubs" Beat Regulars.

There was no regular baseball
game yesterday, the Deer River team
failing to put in an appearance,
owing to a hitch in getting their
transportation to them.
In the absence of an outside team,
a gang" was selected from the
crowd to play against the regulars
and there was a battle royal. The
bunch defeated the first nine,
10 to8 . ~.
Z The teams lined up as follows:
Bemidji-Roy c, Govro 2b, Rid
dell 1b, D. Spooner CT, Otto p, F..
Carlton If, Eackel IS, G.. Spooner
3p. e:
Scrubs s''-Arneson c, Benson 3d.,
Mitchell p, ]. Carlton 1b, Pick IF,
Hillby If, Brull CT, Kritby 2b,
Koffren IS. ...-,
Mitchell pitched for the " scrubs"
and he did some mighty "heaving." !"
He had a motion that brought terror
to the opposing batsman, and the
rest of the gang" went after the
regulars hammer and tongs. The
regulars played rather listlessly,
and the result was beating 10 to
8. @= @s..

while absent, would be aired in the
courts.
Mrs. Chase had not been found,
up to 9 o'clock this morning, and
despite the most diligent search on
the part of at least -four different
posses, not the slightest clue has
been found as to where the old lady
is or in what direction she may have
gone.
How the report that she had been
found originated is not definitely
known, but it is the belief here that
it was inspired by some one who has
been instrumental in causing the
absence of Mrs. Chase.
Efforts to solve the mystery of the
disappearance continue, and the
offering by the county of the 800
reward for the recovery of the body
has caused redoubled efforts on the
part of the searchers.
The belief is becoming almost
universal here that Mrs. Chase has
been killed and her body burned or
otherwise secreted.

RAILWAY COMMISSIONERS

neer D. C. Morgan and Assistants Checking Up Rail.
roads for Valuation Tabulations

Staples, a member of the commits
sion; D. c. Morgan of St. Paul, chief
state engineer, and Messrs. Satley
and Earl, the two latter being
assistants of Mr.. Morgan. Judge
Ira B. Mills, also member of the
commission, was originally a men,
Der of the party, but he stopped at
Walker on the way north the previous
night, and was not on the train
when it reached here.
The party measured the depot and
platform, took note of the switches
in the yards, roadbed, rails, ETC., and
were very expeditions in their work.
In speaking of the work the com
mission is doing, Mr.. Staples said:
The work of collecting this data
involves an immense amount of
labor. We haye been furnished with
proflles from the main office in St.
Paul, showing the roadbeds, tracks,
grades, cuts, films, etc., etc., and
the trip over the lines is for the pur-
pose of verifying these profles. The
object of the trip is to ascertain the
valuation as shown July 1st. We
measure platforms, buildings, tracks,
etc. for the purpose of classifying
them as to value.
This work has never been attempt.
ed before, not only in Minnesota,
but the entire United States. We
have Mr.. Morgan, the state engineer,
seated in one end of the observation
car, where everything is visible, for
the purpose of checking grades,
kinds of rails, films etc., as they
are observed, when we get off to
verify measurements. The reports
are very minute as to every detail,
as you can see, and entails a vast
amount of labor, in classification
and tabulation.
We have twenty men at work in
the office at St. Paul, on this work.
We expect, if everything moves along
smoothly, to complete the work
within a year."
The special train went from here
to Brainerd, where the party spent
Sunday, and the program for Monday
is to inspect the Northern Pacific
from Brainerd fo Duluth.

fore he could extricate the leg, the
wheels passed over the limb, immedi-
ately below the ankle, leaving
shreds of torn flesh clinging to the
stump.
Wickeaw was seen to fall, and
the train was Immediately brought
to standstill. The members of
the train crew, assisted by several
passengers, took bandages from the
emergency case in the baggage car
and tied up the leg, placing the
injured man on the train and taking
him to Bemidji.
At Bemidji, Drs. Henderson and
Morrison dressed the leg, amputat-
ing it above the ankle and trimming
the hanging shreds of flesh that still
adhered to the stump. ~
Wickeaw withstood the trip to
Bemidji in the baggage car without
complaint of any kind, and was
thankful that he was not ground to
pieces under the wheels of the train,
as his presence of mind in drawing
his body when he fell, alone saved
him from a horrible death. No
blame whatever can be attached to
the train crew or. the, railroad COM
pany, az. the accident was the result
of Wickeaw's carelessness.

The State Board of Railroad and
Warehouse Commissioners are max
ing the most exhaustive and eXten-
Sive inspection of the properties
owned by the various Minnesota
railroads that was ever attempted in
the history of the state. The board
commenced the work some time ago
and the labor of gathering data is
being vigorously pushed, to the end
that the state may have authentic
and complete information as to
every foot of railroad line, including
roadbed, rails, kind of rails, switches,
frogs, and every little detail that has
always been ignored heretofore. In
fact, the commission will lay bare
the entire possessions of the railroad
companies operating in the state, in
order that proper basis may be
reached in that most difficult of all
tasks that confront railroad legis-
lators-the making of rates.
The commission has already
practically completed the gathering
of the data wanted on four of the
principal railway systems of the
state: The Chicago, St. Paul, Min
neapolis & Omaha, the C. & N. w.,
the NJ. & St. L. and the Northern
Pacihc-the latter being the road
on which the commission is at pre-
sent making it's final trips.
In working up this data, all
branch lines are given the same
careful attention as the main trunk
lines; and in furtherance of the
work special train containing
members of the commission was
run over the Minnesota & Inter-
national railway from Brainerd
Friday night, returning Saturday
and stopping at Bemidji, late in the
afternoon, on the return trip.
While the train was here, the
writer was given some information
as to what the commission is doing.
The special train was in charge
of w. H. Strachan, superintendent
of the NJ. & I. railway, who had
two private cars at the disposal of
the party.
In the party we're Charles F.
