KOREAN COINER
SHOWS HIS WORK

Kim Bong Chuen, a Korean, is the
real thing when it comes to making
the queer, the phoney five and ten-dol-
lar near gold pieces that have been
doing duty for money throughout the
islands. And the Korean, who is I'M
der arrest and in the custody of the
Federal Marshal, is SO proud of his
work that he has given a demonstra-
ton before the U. S. District Attorney,
showing just how easy it is for an ex-
pert to coin false coin. The plant used
in the demonstration was made by the
coiner in the workship of Wichman s
jewelry store, and the tools of the trade
are all of homemade pattern.
This Korean claims that he alone IS
responsible for all the queer money in
circulation here, but it is supposed that
his declaration of guilt, coupled with
the boasts he has made, is only an
attempt to keep the detectives off the
trail of the rest of the counterfeiting
gang.

| of our people from one part of the
| country to another. This has not
! only made us homogeneous but has
| brought about the immense trade be-
! tween the various states and terri
| tories. 1t can not be claimed that it
was the intention of Congress in the
| passage of this Act to hamper or re-
strict tins free interchange of our
commerce. The American drummer,
the wonder of the business world,
finds it most irritable to stop off
with his samples in Hawaii, expect
ing TO catch steamer which he sees
scheduled TO leave in few DAYS, and
then learns that he can only travel
on that vessel by the payment of a
fine of $4,000. He cables his prin-
eipal that his expenses go on and his
time is lost.
If during the eight years that this
law has been applied to Hawaii the
passenger service from these islands
to the mainland has been bettered or
increased because of this protection,
you would not find public-spirited
men in Hawaii opposing it. So far
as L am aware, there has not been
murmur raised by the sugar planters
against the restriction TO American
bottoms, though it costs them $780,
QUO year-a tax practically of
$500 per capita of our population.
Our people do not ask an exemption
for freight, but we do maintain COM
mon sense dictates that ordinary
judgment be used in the application
OF our national laws.
/ presume those who have money
invested in American ships viii feel
that they are acting rightly and hui
namely when, by insisting on its APP
piication, they subject the local
naval authorities to keep one of
their sailors here for three weeks in
a dying condition, after his physi- |
elan has stated that the only way to
save his life was to send him to the |
Coast. The application of the naval |
authorities for an exception had |
been denied and no transport or 9TH |
er American bottom would touch |
here for that length of time, although |
there have been two or more oppor |
tunities for placing him on an Eng
lish vessel and thus saving his life |
perhaps
No community regrets more than |
this the action of Congress in failing |
to provide subsidy, which would |
probably have maintained the Spree
kels Brothers steamers in service But |
in view of the fact that they have |
been obliged to take their steamers
off, and the reputed statements of |
the Pacific Mail Steamship Company IS
officials that the passenger traffic
from Honolulu is matter of utter |
to them and PLAYS no |
part in their calculations, as well as
other considerations, is not this Ter
ritory justified in demanding of the
of Commerce and Labor
that he use the discretion which
Congress has given him, and remit
all fines until such time as in his
Judgment the service of American
steamers calling at this port war
rants the application of the law in
It's full rigor?

HEARING OF MIGUEL INJUNC-
TTON

Monday, August 10, at p. m, the
hearing of the demurrer against the
continuance of the injunction against
the Board of License Commissioners in
the matter of granting liquor licenses,
which has been so far set aside, viii
be presented before Judge De Bolt.
In this case an injunction against the
Board was secured, Miguel s attorneys,
Harrison and Gear, taking the ground
that the present l1quor law is uncon-
stitutional, inasmuch as it deprives a
saloonkeeper of his property without
due process of law. The injunction was
set aside after being in force but a
short time.

BECK NOT TO BLAME.

Judge De Bolt yesterday denied the
motion to commit John Beck for con
tempt of court for refusing to pay
counsel fees for his wife s attorney
in the divorce proceedings she has in
stituted against him. 1t was shown
yesterday that Beck s neglect to pay
was due altogether to his inability to
do so. 1t was a case of circumstances
over which he had no immediate con-

BOW WONGS ARE
NOT FIGHTING
Their President Points With
Pride to His Clean
Record.

DR. L. Akina, the president Of the
Bow Wong tong, denies emphatically
| that the members of that organization
are preparing for any tong war so far
as his official knowledge Is concerned.
Neither does he know officially that
any of the members of the tong are
going about armed and with chips on
their shoulders looking for any trouble.
The Bow Wongs, according to their
venerable leader, believe in the motto
of good will on earth and peace to
Cinnamon and are being constantly
preached at in their lodge room to keep
the peace at all costs.
The Bow Wong president points to
his record in Hawaii, since he landed
on these shores nearly sixty years ago,
to prove that he would not knowingly
be at the head of any gang of cut
throats During his career here, he
says, he has not been once charged
as a lawbreaker nor as anything but
law-abiding citizen.
The report, as published in the Adj
vertiser of Tuesday, that the Federal
officials are investigating recent i'm
portation of arms and the distribution
of guns and daggers among certain
Cinnamon, is welcome news to the head
members of the Bow Wongs, who, feel
ing certain of the innocence of them
selves, rejoice that the wrong doings
of others are to be exposed. That
there were such arms imported and now
in Chinatown has been known to these
officials for some time. These mem
bers think that their destination could
be easily traced by the Federal Off
cials by finding out from the shipping
receipts of the steamship agents who
received the package and acknowledged
the receipt.
That there is serious danger of trou-
bic in Chinatown between the fighting
members of the rival tougs was ac-
by several of the head
men of the Bow Nongs yesterday, as
it was admitted day or two ago by
the Min Sin Scar leaders, although the
leaders on both sides profess to be in
favor of peace and doing all that is
possible to avert trouble.
