REPORTED ROBBERY WAS
ONLY A DRUNKEN ROW

Yesterday morning the infantrymen
from Fort Shafter, who have been max.
ing a practise hike around the island,
some members of which party were re.
ported to have beaten and robbed a
Hindu at Hauua, returned to the Ho.
nOlulu post. AS soon as the attention
of the men was brought to the story
published in the Advertiser of the al.
legged robbery, telephoned denial of
the story was sent in to this office; the
denial and the presentation of the case
rs made by one of the soldiers being
confirmed later by Captain Exton, com,
mander of Company G., who had been
the commanding officer of the marching
party.
The story, as the soldier told it over
the telephone yesterday, was:
"The whole yarn about that Hindu
fellow being beat up and robbed of a
dollar is lie, and l wish you would
say so. He, might have had dollar
or he might not. don't know, but
he had dandy jag that do know
about. You can ask any of the officers
about the state he was in when he
brought them that watermelon.
He comes over to where we were,
some OF us In saloon, and he buys
a drink and bottle. Then he asks
one of us to go over home with him,
He didn have any home, just shacR
without any furniture. When he ana
the soldier gets there he grabs the sol.
dier's hat and chucks it into anothe.
room, then he tries to shove the soldier
out. OF course the man wants his hat
but the Hindu takes a club he has to
prop the door shut with and goes after
the man.
"Then the man comes back to us and
two of us goes with him as reinforce.
ments and we asks for the hat. The
Hindu pulls a knife and comes at us
and we grabbed him and took the stick.
er away. where's my hat? You have
my hat, says the soldier. You're a
liar, says the Hindu, so of course he
knocks him down. He gets up again
and he knocks him down again. Then
the Hindu goes out in the yard and Olga
up the hat from brushple. That 3
all there was to it and we didn't rob
him of no dollar. Major Dunning is
going to take up the whole business. 1
won't name no names until he does.''
Captain Exton, when asked about the
affair and told what the soldier had
reported, said: "Those are about the
facts of the case. 1t was all drunken
row."

FATAL SHOT
WAS ACCIDENTAL
(rrom Monday,s AdvertIser.,

(From Mondays Advertiser.)
Particulars of the death of Lane
Webster, who was mprtaily wounded
on the Island of Molokai on Friday af-
ternoon, came by the steamer Mikahala

accidental while the deceased and sew
eral of his young friends were out hunt
ing. The funeral was held YESTERDAY

trail Union church.
About four clock Friday afternoon,
Lane Webster, accompanied by Ather-
ton Gilman, Arthur Gilman, Lionel
Steiner and young Genoves, left the J.
f. Brown ranch house near Halawa on
hunting trip. About a mile and n
half from the house they started down
slippery. trail. The trail was raii,-
soaked and its descent was attended
by some difficulty. In tho van was
young Webster and behind him Ather-
ton Gilman. Suddenly, Atherton Gil
man s feet slipped from under him, and
in trying to save himself the gun which
he was carrying loaded, fell and was
discharged. A cry from Webster told
his companions that he had received
the shot. He fell, and HIS companions
went to his assistance. Ali were
stricken with grief at the tragedy, and
their trembling fingers were almost un-
able to bandage the wound to stop the
flow of blood which poured from the
bullet hole in the calf OF his right leg.
After doing what they could there,
thoy got him to the top of the trail,
placed him on horse and took him
back to the ranch house.
Atherton Gilman left the party after
they had started for home and gallop-
Ell nine miles for doctor. On reach
ing the house with the physician about
nine O'Clock that night young Webster
was just breathing his last The doc
tor examined the wound, and according
to the report brought from Molokai
said that even though he had come ear
lier he could not have saved him, as
the wound was a mortal one.
i The entire party stopping at Brown 8
accompanied the remains back to Ho-
nolulu YESTERDAY on the Mikahala.
The services at Central Union church
were impressive, and every feature was
expressive of sadness. Classmates
of the deceased at Punahou College
were the pallbearers, and there were
| floral tributes frGm the class with
which young Webster would have grad
uated next year-'09. Other floral
tributes came from the Gilman chill
dren and others connected with the sad
tragedy.

and deposited among the flowers by

HOOKING AND HIS
HONGK0KG BREWERY

Information was received through an
officer of the steamship Hongkong Maru
that the Oriental Brewing Company of
Kowloon, China, largely owned by Ho.
nolulu stockholders, would distribute
its first brew the early part of Sep
TENDER.
Manager Hooking, formerly Of the
Honolulu Brewing & Mating Co., was
a passenger on the Hongkong Maru
to Yokohama, and notified the ship Is
officers that they could get the Oriental
brew IN that month. Mr.. Hooking was
then arranging with the steamship
companies and other japanese corpora.
tons to try the beer.
The brewery represents, it is said,
a capital investment of about $500, 600.
The initiative for such brewery came
from those interested in the Honolulu
brewery, Mr.. Schweitzer, then the sec
rotary of the local concern, going to
the Far East TO investigate prospective
trade conditions in Manila, Hongkong
and Shanghai. It was finally decided
to locate the brewery on Kowloon.

JUST FAILED IN /,
LONG CHANNEL SWIM


LONDON, August 1.-Jabez Wolff
has failed again in his attempt to swim
the English Channel. This was his first
effort this year. Wolf started a. day
break and almost until the last the
prospect of his reaching the French
shore seemed bright This time he had
arranged with French pilot to guide
him in French waters and help him to
avoid the dangerous currents off Cape
Grisnez, which have defeated him be-
fore.
He was forced to give up, however,
when he was three miles off the French
coast and after he had been in the
water for fourteen hours. He was per-
fectly fresh, but he was unable to
current, which was carrying him to-
ward the North Sea. He had covered
thirty-fve miles. Wolff was accom-
panied on his swim by large party
of friends on the yacht Sea Wolf He
was fed at intervals from small boat,
his wife experimenting the feeding ar
engagements. From time to time some
of those on the yacht accompanied him
in the water for short distances.

shots were fred he thought there was
going to be trouble, and he started
down the steps, when the first shot was
heard. Then he ran back into the
honse When he looked through the
lattice he distinctly saw in the moon
light Kalekini holding a revolver.
Mrs. Keola Kaai said she returned
from mp town with her husband about
half-past eleven, and she heard the hus-
band and his wife talking. She told
Kalekini, the first time he took the
woman IS arm, to let her go, as he had
no business handling her so roughly,
and reminded him that she was taking
care of Mrs. Kaleikini. After the
traoedv she saw Kaleikini standing
over the woman.
COURSE OF THE BULLET.
DIR. Mcdonald, who made an autopsy
of the body of the woman, gave some
interesting testimony as to the course
the bullet took. Strange to say, only
one bullet struck the woman, and it
was probably the third, the doctor tes-
tifying that death must have been al
most instantaneous. The bullet enter
ed the victim Is back about four inches
from the median line and about on a
level with the crest of the ilium. Then
the bullet ranged inward and upward,
entirely through the body, penetrating
the intestines, touching the edge of the
liver, bored through the diaphragm and
then on through the right ventricle of
the heart, through the chest wall and
lodged just behind the skin of the
breast. The doctor stated that death
was caused by shock and hemorrhage.
Mrs. Kaleikini was about 2S years of
age and was born in Kauai, Kalekini
is painter by trade.
The coroner s jury rendered the fol-
lowing verdict, after which Kaleilkini
was specifically charged with murder:
"That the deceased came to her
d ath by shock and hemorrhage caused
by gunshot wound inflicted by a
bullet discharged from revolver held
in the hand of George Kaleikini."
The jury did not take cognizance of
the opportunity to state that the de-
eused killed the woman with homieidaI
intent but left it open to cause By.
accident or other method.
