BUSY AT washington
TO CHANGE SITE OF
OUR FEDERAL BUILDING

Interested parties from Honolulu
have been reported to the Chamber of
Commerce and the Merchants Associa-
ton as attempting to make trade of
the present Federal building site,
bounded by King, Bishop and Merchant
streets for the Irwin property facing
on Union square opposite the Capitol
grounds. The information came by the
Hongkong Maru yesterday and not only
occasioned surprise among the members
of the two organizations but uneasiness
as well, for the writer stated also that
representations were being made in
Washington that public sentiment is in
favor of the Irwin site and not of that
now owned by the United States gov
ernment and upon which the erection
of Federal building, under an appro-
priation of the last Congress, was sup
posed to have been decided.
Identical letters from Washington
iSaShcu Iuc Two utTCdHIlie OrRanlZa-
tions. These led to consultations among
leading business men of both bodies
and meeting has been called for Fri.
day afternoon to discuss the matter
and ascertain public feeling as to the
two sites.
First of all leading men of the two
organizations feel that this is hardly
the time to attempt to dissuade the
Washington authorities from proceeding
with the plans for the construction of
Federal building on the Mahuka site;
and secondly they fout the suggestion
that public sentiment favors the Irwin
site as against the Mahuka site. That
the site finally chosen after long dis.
cussion was bought and paid for by
the United States government through
The Hawaiian gazette. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1865-1918, 1908-11-27

the Henry Waterhouse Trust Co., and
only after every opportunity had been
offered residents to state their objec.
tions as to one or the other sites seems
to have settled the matter so far as
the local public is concerned.
The Washington writer also stated
that the movement of the interested
party at Washington TO obstruct the
development Of the plans is likely to
hold up all operations looking toward
an early start on the building If the
Washington authorities are made to
think that the local people are still
divided over the question of the build
ing site, it is suggested that they will
simply sit down and wait.
A prominent member of the Mer.
chants Association stated yesterday
that as between the two sites, the Ma
huka site had finally been chosen be-
cause of its central location. It is
directly in the midst of the business
section, with two car lines running
close by, and within a few minutes
from almost any business house in
town, whereas the Irwin site is located
too far away from the business section,
is, in fact, beyond the edge of one side.
The Friday meeting is likely to be
largely attended and if at that time
sense of the two organizations is call
ed for as to the favored site, the mat
ter is likely to be settled Immediately.
On October 27 Mr.. Mcclellan wrote
from Washington that the Superintend.
ent of Architecture of the Treasury De-
partment was to take up the matter
of the Federal building for Honolulu
and get decision from the authorities
as to whether competitive plans for the
building should be invited.

YOUNG GRAF TER
DID NOT STAY
One days graft $4,000


The young man by the name of s. ].
Drossner, alias Pratt, who dropped into
town on the It. X. X. steamship Tenyo
Maru on Monday and was here just
twenty-four hours, played his little
! graft game to the tune of $50. That
much is known, but there may be other
victims yet to be heard from.
According to the purser and some of
the passengers, Pratt, as the young
man was known on board the Tenyo
Maru, made nuisance of himself. He
Travelled steerage, but claiming that he
was graduate of Harvard and used
to the ways of wealth and luxury, he
had habit of frequenting the first
class cabin decks, the smoking room and
the deck chairs. Keen.eyed celestials
who looked after the decks found him
taking his ease there, smoking Three
Castle cigarettes and occasionally ad,

tish drawl, and they reported him to
the purser Pratt was unceremonious.
ly told to HE himself to the steerage
quarters among the japanese and Eu-
ropean passengers, and did so. But like
the cat, he came back.
On arrival at Honolulu, Pratt. who
became "S. J. Drossner" to Honolu.
lans, found his way among the church
people and with his plausible ways in.
duced one to go security for him on
draft or some bank paper on which
he secured an advance of &c. He was
invited to attend men g meeting at
church Monday evening and was
there. He said that he was so charmed
with Honolulu that he would write
home that he would remain here, and
left the meeting ostensibly to 90 to the
steamer to get his trunk, although the
steerage steward said he only had
telescope valise.
Later on in the evening some of the
good people with whom Pratt, or Dross-
ner, had made friends began to think
that they had been duped, and felt GER
tain of it when they learned that the
Mr.. Drossner they knew was Mr.. Pratt
on the steamer. The police we're COM
municated with and were asked to see
that Mr.. Drossner, alias Pratt, STAYED
on the steamer and went on to San
Francisco. A reporter visited the Ten.
yo about midnight and left word of
what might be in store for Pratt if he
remained in town, and yesterday morn.
ing when Detective Madeiros saw him,
Pratt was already half.willing to stay
on the boat. To the detective he re.
lated tale of abuse in Japan, followed
by nine-months Imprisonment, but
finally admitted that the charge of
fraud under which he was committed,
was correct
Then Pratt decided that he would
really remain in Honolulu. Maderos
took him to the hurricane deck and
pointing across the wharf sheds to
citadel-like building looming up on a
reef said: "You see that big building

Well, that's the prison. You stay in

advice and when the Tenyo steamed

HEMENWAY IN
SUPREME COURT
trrom Wednesday. Advertiser,

| tFrom Wednesdays Advertiser.)
Acting Attorney General Whitney
yesterday received letter from Attor-
ney General Hemenway in regard to
Territorial cases in the Supreme Court.
The letter is dated November 7, and
says that the Lanai case was being
heard that day. Evidently the motion
to advance it on the calendar was
granted as it was previously down for
hearing December 90.
In regard to the Morita Keizo case.
Hemenyay says that the court bowled
out Mr.. Fox, the attorney representing
keizo, by broadside of questions
winch he could not answer, and he final
iy quit and sat down. Hemenway had
to clear up the situation by explaining
the position of the appellant in order
to make the position of the Territory
clear.
Hemenway's statement regarding Fox
Will be surprise to the bar here. as
Duane Z. Fox is considered one of the
best lawyers in Washington, and is
retained in many of the most important
cases before the Supreme Court. Judge
A. s. Humphreys, who retained Fox i'm
this case, was under the belief yester-
day that Fox himself had not made
the oral argument in the case. being
out of Washington as he understood it.
but that the oral argument had been
made by some one from his office. per-
haps Arthur s. Browne, whose name
was on the brief with that of Fox.
Hemenway says that he made the oral
argument in the two Rapid Transit
cases, the Cotton Bros. case, the Mo-
rita Keizo case and the Lanai case, and
had written the brief in the Liliha
street case. The case of Holt VS.. Tul-
lett, to determine whether sailors,
wages can be garnisheed for taxes is
not specifically mentioned in the letter.
but it must have been heard as Hemen-
way speaks of all the eases having been
heard
Hemenway will leave San Francisco
by the Korea December %, arriving
here December 90.
