new POLICE COURT
SUIt ORIGINATED
Witnesses Placed in
A Separate
Room

A new rule was placed into opera
ton in the Police Court today, name.
~ that of keeping the witnesses in a
room whenever the request is made
that they be made to remain without
the hearing of the court. 1t was first
tried this morning when the case of
Wada, a Japanese charged with sell.
ing liquor without a license, was
called. Il. c. Peters, who appeared
for the defendant asked that the wit.
nesses be placed under the ruley but
when he saw an officer herding the
flock of Japanese who were to take
the stand for the defense, into the
clerks Office at the Eva end of the
court room, he demanded TO know the
meaning of this procedure.
Judge AndradC informed him that
there had been so many kicks made
about the keeping the witnesses who
had been excluded, in the corridor out.
side the court room, as II was charged
that they managed to hear the testi.
mony given in the court room in spite
of this precaution. For this reason il
was proposed to place them in the
clerks office, where they could enjoy
no such advantage. The Court did
not care, however, where the wit.
nesses were kept as long as they could
not hear the testimony.
Peters said that he thought that the
ignorant Japanese might be frightened
by being placed in a room, and asked
that they be ordered to stay at the
first floor of the station instead. This
was granted, but the witnesses for
the prosecution were placed in the
room, Prosecutor Brown stating that
he did not fear that his witnesses
would be frightened so easily.

PROSPERITY PROMISES.

The cable dispatch of yesterday
announcing the reduction of the dis
count rate of the Bank of England to
.our per cent. is the most reassurinS
sign of the times that has come to
the financial world since early last
summer.
The Bank of England discount
rate has been not lower than four
and one-half per cent. since mid
2ummer, and only a few months ago
It went to the record figure of seven
per cent.
These figures are the best evidence
that could be offered of the shaking
down process having been completed,
so that all the future movements Of
business and finance may be forward.
This Is the spirit of the circular Is
sued by Henry Clews on January IL
and conditions have improved much
since that time.
Clews says of Wall-Street affairs:
Confidence is reviving and a much
greater degree of recovery has al
ready been established than could
possibly have been foretold a month
or six weeks ago. This Improvement
is almost entirely due TO favorable
developments in the monetary situa-
ton. The premium on currency has
finally disappeared and rates for time
money are steadily declining. Along
with this movement there has been a
corresponding drop in rates for COM
mercial paper, the demand for which
has much improved The derange-
ment in credit is gradually passing
away; liquidation has been severe
and has had the effect of releasing
large sums previously locked up in
high-priced securities. The return
movement of funds from the interior
has fairly begun and will now con-
tinue for some time to come. There
Is an abundance of currency in the
interior and relative scarcity in
New York. This is demonstrated by
the last national bank statement,
which showed that the banks in the
central reserve cities in order to
help during the crisis allowed their
reserves to decline to $32,O0O,OOO.
below legal requirements, while the
country banks carried surplus re-
serves of over s103,O0O,OOO. With
the return of confidence and the re-
sumption of specie payments, there
should be very large influx of these
funds back to New York and other
reserve cities. For this reason the
deficit in New York reserves must be
nearly wiped out, and for some time
to come rising averages will probably
be the rule. When it is recalled that
the increase in circulation during the
last twelve months has been $195,-
900, 900, of which nearly $4,000
600. was added in December, it will
be apparent that very material In

STICK To YOUR TASK.

A more mistaken policy could
hardly be imagined than an abandon
ment of tourist promotion because
the present season, from one cause or
another, has not been especially
fruitful.
To make such a move would eXag-
gerate whatever injury might result
from the reputation of having two
of the leading hotels of the city clos
ed, and bring on stagnation that
would in reality do damage from
which the city and the islands would
be long in recovering.
To carry out such program will
tend to bring about a condition that
will make II doubtful whether one
hotel can be made to pay.
II is not the part of live and
progressive town to conduct itself as
II 1t had scored a defeat, when there
is absolutely no occasion for so do
ing.
The Promotion Committee should
stick to the work for which it was
organized. To start off on side is
sues, for the handling of which there
is a Territorial Board already in ex-
istence, would be like swapping
horses in the middle of the stream.
Stick to the task, and carry it
through to success. Fill one hotel
and then ample space will be pro-
vided for other travellers to come.
When one hotel is filled Honolulu
merchants will prosper.

Letter Explaining His Attitude To-
ward c. II. S. Graduation.

The following letter was sent yester-
day to Principal Marshal of the Cony
High school by Rev. G. G. Mosher of
this city.
Augusta, Me, June 30, 1905
To the Principal of the Cony High
School. Augusta, Me.
My dear Sir:-I accepted with much
pleasure the invitation of the Senior
Class to open with prayer the gradua-
tion exercises at City hall this evening,
this being a long established custom
in harmony with American ideals
But | was not informed concerning
the closing part of the program. l see
by this mornings paper that the
graduation exercises are to be followed
by dance to which the Alumni and
members of the school are invited. My
views on dancing are liberal, l do not
object to the dance on general princi-
pies, but l do object to opening a
dance with prayer. and have decided
views as to the propriety of the dance
as connected with High School exer-
ciSos, and so I must decline to fill my
part on the program tonight and would
suggest 2 violin solo as being more APP
prOpriate.
Yours very truly
G. G.. MOSHER.
