lanes Hogan, who put IN the lowest
bid for the sand and rock to be used
in, the building of Notifications at Pearl
Harbor, and who acknowledges that he
is backed by japanese, is going after
the scalp of Captain Orwell, the Unit
ed States engineer in charge of the
work. This announcement was made
last night by E. C. Peters, former at
orney general of the Territory, who
has been retained by Hogan, as his
legal adviser.
matter last night Mr.. Peters stated
that he would take the matter TO. the
Chief of Engineers in Washington and
would forward formal complaint, ac-
companied by affidavits, showing that
Orwell had treated Hogan unfairly and
that the contract should have been
awarded to him.
In speaking of the matter Peters
said:
Yes. have been retained by James
Hogan to look after his interests in the
matter of the Pearl Harbor contract.
The way the matter has come up, so
far as / can find out, is as follows:
Hogan is, 1 understand, man who
has had a great deal of experience
in rock work, and figured the contract
down to a nicely. He submitted his bid
and Captain Orwell inquired in re-
gard to his financial responsibility.
Hogan then went to the Hawaiian Bal
last Company, very large concern
here, of which Matsumoto is the head
He explained the situation and this
concern, seeing that they were to have
a chance to make some money out of
the job, agreed to back him. 1t was
just the same as one bf the local con-
tractors going tc Levers & Cooke, or
some other large firm, and getting their
backing under an agreement that the
supplies should be bought from them.
"Somehow Orwell got it into his
head that Hogan was acting as agent
for japanese firm and decided that
he would not let him get the contract.
think he has a habit of jumping
at conclusions a little too fast / I'M
derstand that all the bids gre to be
rejected. In this case there is nothing
TO be done in regard to the contract,
but we shall certainly not allow the
matter to drop. My client has been
treated most unfairly, and l shall take
the matter to Otwell's superiors, and
will not let it drop"
The taking of the matter to Washing
ton will be a peculiar move on the
part of Hogan, according to a view
expressed yesterday by a local con-
tractor. In speaking of the matter he
said:
81 should think that Hogan would
be glad to keep out of the thing, now
that the bids have all been rejected.
l believe that Orwell is absolutely
hottest in everything that he does, but
he is just bit close on his contracts.
He does not want to allow a margin
of profit, such as we expect and must
have down here, If things do Got go |
exactly to suit him he won't wait for
else, but gdes ahead with it |
himself. He is very different man
to do business with from the usual run !
of public officials found here"

BEAT LEADERS
(From Mondays Advertiser. ,

There were two big surprises sprung
yesterday in the baseball games played
at Kakaako park. In the first contest
the police put it all over the sailors
from the U. S. s. Iroquois, winning
as they pleased. through the fact that
the Navy inf1eld was hardly able to
hold the ball in one chance out of
three. A Dreier pitched fairly good
ball, but had no chance Of winning his
game with the poor support which he
was accorded. 81

the crowd wild. When the last half
of the ninth commenced the score stood
IA in favor of the Ocean Views, the
leaders in the league. The Honolulu
Brewery, which stands at the bottom
of the list, was apparently beaten
again. But the last inning was beau
~. With one man out, a base on balls,
two errors by the Ocean View catcher,
followed by more misplays by the
pitcher and shortstop, four runs came
over the plate and then the shouting
commenced.
The three leading teams in the league
are now so closely punched that there
is bound to be some excitement and
great interest is being taken in the
series. The lineups and scores are:

Judging from the consideration and
wise choices the local high school foot
ball men have shown and made in select
ing players to lead them the gridiron
next fall, together with the fact that no
team Will suffer a great deal by losing
players through graduation, thus leaving
the teams composed mostly of experienced
men. successful year in foot ball for the
season of 1909 is almost assured. The
foot ball boys of each school. with the ex-
ception of Eastern High, have elected
their captain in this sport for next fall,
and all have made the best possible Sc
lections in every ones Judgment.
Technical High, which made a clean
sweep Of the high school series of foot
ball games. thus galloping away un-
needed with the foot ball championship
of 1908. lost no time in electing it's cap
tain, and was the first school to announce
its leader in this branch Qf athletics for
next season. 1t is the system at this in
Stltutlon for the eX-captain and coach to
recommend man to lead the team for
the following year whose playing and
ability have shown him capable and
worthy of the position.
Mccarthy Leads Tech.
Immediately after Techs last high
school game with Eastern the players
were rendered supper in apprec:at on
for their hard and earnest work in an
nextng another foot ball championship to
the Machinists already long string, and
during the festivities which prevailed
Emmett Mccarthy was unanimously
chosen captain for 1909. McCarthy's
playing at tackle for Technical during
the past season was sensational, while his
consistent work was very much in evil
dence. He was also a unanimous member
of the all-high school foot ball team. Nc
Carthy enters his fourth year next fa.l,
play and be a member on champion
high school eleven. he will do all in his
power as the leader of the team to bring
1t out victorious at the head of the list
He Is very fortunate in losing but three
players of this years championship
eleven. and will find no great handicap
next fall in selecting and developing an
excellent team. Small. Edwards and
Goldsmith are the only experienced play
ers who will be absent from the string of
candidates next season, thus leaving a
strong nucleus for a winning team.
Gripp to Lead Central.
A special feature of the foot ball sup
per which was given to the Central
High School foot ball warriors few
weeks ago by the lady teachers and
fourth-year girls was the election of
James Gripp to lead the team as cap
tain for the season OF 1909. He dis
played considerable nerve and ability in
the past high school series, and is ca

TRUMP OPENING
FROM WEAK HANDS
Carrying a Whist Theory to Its
Legitimate Con-
cIusion.

The lead Of short trumps from hand
that is strong in plain suits Is consid-
cred good policy by players OF all schools
An easy extension Of this principle Is to
make the same lead when holding set
up long suit. and we'll protected high
card in each Of the other plain suits
This. also, is generally agreed to by d
majority Of players. though the more con-
servative OF the Iong-suiters prefer
couple of rounds OF the established suit,
in order to see II partner will signal. 1t
Is left for the short-suiters, however. to
carry out this principle to its legitimate
conclusion. and lead short trumps. not be-
cause they have any reason to wish
trumps drawn. but simply because none
Of their plain suits offers a favorable
opening, either short or long. These tactics
are based upon the theory that the origi-
nal leader should endeavor to do as little
