HAWAIIAN HOTEL
BOARD GUT OUT
Service of Meals to Suspend
From August | to
December |.

No meals will be served to guests at
the Hawaiian Hotel from the first of
August till the first Of December.
A meeting of the stockholders of the
Hawaiian Hotel Co., Ltd, was held
yesterday afternoon, when a resolution
was unanimously adopted, whereby it
was voted to discontinue the boarding
department of the hotel for the above
stated period of four months.
''The hotel rooms, except the dining
room, will be kept open, nice and
clean, the same as ever" President
Alexander Young of the Hawaiian
Hotel Co. said last night.
Guests may take their meals wher-
ever they choose. A good many of
them now go elsewhere to eat.
''There is no use in keeping the
boarding department open at con-
slant loss. With the scarcity of steam
ers this summer the tourist business is
almost dead.

MAHUkA SITE IS
APPROVED AGAIN
Chamber of Commerce to Gable
COrteIy0u That It's
All Right.

The Chamber of Commerce at its
meeting yesterday afternoon. by vote
of "a to 4, voted to cable to the Secre-
tary of the Treasury urging his accept
ance of the Mahuka site for the Fed
eral building.
The motion was made by F. J. Low
rey, following the address by DR.. Cofer.
Mr.. Lowrey said, in making the mo-
tion, that the Merchants Association
had taken similar action, and that it
was in response to desire to know
the sentiment of the business commu-
nifty.
f. w. MacfarIane said that he under
stood that the matter was in the hands
of Governor Carter, and that he was in
Washington and could handle it there
better than it could be handled from
here and that he feared cross purposes
If this body should now take action.
My name has been very prominently
connected with this NATTER said w.
G. Irwin, although I have had very
little to do with it. There has gone
on from this community a petition
signed by twenty or thirty well known
men, recommending some site near
Palace Square. It does not make any
difference whether it is the gore site.
the opera house site, or the site beyond
the Judiciary building. But I do not
think this body ought to make brok-
erage agency of itself to boost the sale
of particular piece of real estate"
ST think the Mahuka property is a
good site," said J. r. Gait, but I
don't think this body ought to take any
action in the matter. When different
interests get to pulling and hauling
over such things, the result is generally
to delay for a long rfme any action
whatever by the Federal government"
1T is for the very purpose of pre-
venting this delay that I have made
the motion L have" said Mr.. Lowrey.
1T is to put an end to this pulling and
hauling, and to show that the business
is practically united on the
question. This will show the depart
ment what the business interests rep
in the Chamber of Commerce
think on the subject"
The motion was then put and carried
by a vote of "a to 4.

CHINESE CODBLER'S
SHOP TAKES FIRE

There came near being a nasty fire
in Alakea street, between King and
Merchant streets, about O'Clock yes
terday afternoon.
a Chinese cobbler, occupying a cub
by hole in the old wooden building
between the VIM. McCandless and the
Magoon buildings, left bottle con
tanning gasoline close to a heating ap-
paratus used in his craft and went out
to eat.
The shack soon began to smoke and
the door being opened a blaze was
found making lively headway. A lot
of leather scraps was burning and
the fire had taken hold of the parti-
tion separating the shop from ". L.
Peterson's Office in the same building.
John had came scurrying back and,
with assistance from others, put out
the fire with a few bueketfuIs of water
at least in part, a heap Of blazing
scraps being swept out upon the side
walk with a broom. No alarm had
been given. The fumes left after the
fire We're sickening.

MAKES A HAUL

Y. Okotani, the proprietor of the Ka-
mehameha saloon, was the victim Of
a bold sneak thief on Tuesday to the
amount of $3.50, taken from drawer
in room over the saloon, a room in
which his wife was at work off and
on all day. The thief slipped into the
room around 5 O'Clock, taking advan-
tage of Mrs. Okotani's momentary alb
sence. The location of the money was
evidently known to him, as nothing in
the room was disturbed but the one
drawer. Police Officer Townsend has
the case in hand and will probably
make an early capture. carpenter en-
ployed on the premises at the time

about the time the money was taken.

HONOLULU MAN SAID
To BE DEFAULTER

Rumors concerning the defaulting, in
Reno, of a business man formerly of
Honolulu, were flying through the city
yesterday. No one seemed to know any,
thing certain about the matter but
stated that they had heard the rumors
from third party. Suicide was even
limited at, but there seemed to be no
foundation whatever for this.
The amount of the defalcation was
unknown and every one who spoke of
the matter seemed to have heard of
it indirectly. Attempts were made to
keep the matter from the newspapers
altogether, which seemed to be peeu-
liar. as the particulars viii probably ar
rive on the next steamer from San
Francisco and be copied in full.

POLICE OFFICER IS
PUT UNDER ARREST

James Olds, a bicycle officer on the
police force, was arrested yesterday aft
ernoon on a warrant for embezzlement.
The warrant was sworn out by a Japa-
nese, Y. Hada, who complains that Olds
spent forty dollars placed in his charge
by him. The money, it appears, was
turned over to Olds in connection with
the purchasing of tickets of eight
japanese going to the Coast last April,
the complainant stating that the money
was supposed to be deposit fee on
the tickets and Olds claiming that it
was given him as fee to see that
the japanese got on board and away
without trouble. The case will be
threshed out in the police court this
morning.

YOUNG WOMEN IMMIGRANTS
Over One Thousand Arrive on the

New York, 4. ~~t THE arrival Of
the 1,0O4 unmarried women in tho
steerage of the White Star liner Bal
tic from Liverpool had been antici'
pated by cable dispatches when the
steamer sailed. but considerable inter
est was manifested when the big fem.
mime contingent reached here. Not a
little banter also attended its arrival.
II. B. Palmer, purser Of the Baltic,
said the coincidence of such a large
number Of single women booking pas
sage on the Baltic for one trip caused
attention in London. Many of the
young women are coming here to seek
employment In factories and In homes
About As per cent are girls who have
lived here before, but who returned to
Europe for the summer. Many Of
these brought relatives with them to
fill places as servants, arrangements
for which had been made in advance.
About one-half Of the newcomers
will remain in and near New York
city, the others having tickets for
towns In Pennsylvania, Michigan, Ohio
and North Dakota.
Most Of those who landed were Irish
girls who went back this year to at

AUTO GOES THROUGH FENCE
Serious Accident In Twenty.four-Hour
Endurance Race.

New York. 81 GA serious &C.
cident occurred during the twenty
four-hour endurance automobile race
at Morris Park racetrack, three per-
sons being perhaps fatally injured and
q score of others more or less bruised.
One, Of the cars while going over sixty
miles per hour crashed through a
fence at the western turn of the track
In the thirteenth hour of the race.
The car was forty-horsepower Lo-
zier. which was being driven by Harry
Smelzer OF New York. He was struck
by a heavy timber and thrown from
the machine. When picked up it was
found that his skull was fractured and
he was taken to the Ford hospital,
dying few hours later.
John Clarke, a spectator who was
standing near the fence when the ma
chine dashed through, was injured in
ternally and boy named Fred Tapp
suffered a fracture of his leg and
other injuries.
Smelzer and his partner, Linkrom,
were racing with another machine
with which they had been sprinting
for half an hour. Suddenly the tire
on the front right wheel of the Lo-
zier machine burst and the car
swerved toward the fence at a point
where about 200 persons were lean
ing over the rail watching the race
Fully twenty of them were knocked
down and painfully hurt. Crowds
rushed out on the track and it was
impossible for the police to hold them
in check. Many had narrow escapes
from being hit by cars that were rae
ing around the track, the race not
having been interrupted by the acct
dent
