communication from Ambassador
OBrien dealing with the Japanese re

O'Brien regards the Japanese answer
as evincing a satisfactory disposition
towards the American desires, but
that the reply is not conclusive.
It Is expected that the Japanese
government will In some formal man.

see to 1t that congress is acquainted
with the facts and thereby relieved
from the necessity Of enacting any
legislation looking to the exclusion Of
Japanese immigration as a whole. AT.
tempts in that direction already have
been made by the Pacific coast repre-.
sentatives and II the president is able
to convince congress that the Japan.

DEATH OF REV. NJ.
LUTERA, OF MAUI

Rev. MARITIME Lutera, the pastor of
Keawakapu, Ulupaiakua and Kanaie
churches, died on November 10, and was
buried near the old Keawakapu church
on the following Thursday, November
IL. Rev. Lutera had been an excep-
tionally faithful pastor of the Ha-
waiian people in his district. During
the last two years his three churches
have raised over $4,000 for the repairs
of Keawakapu and Kanaie and the new
church building at Ulupalakua. OF
this large sum Hon. III. T. Baldwin
gave $3.50, and DIR. j. H. Raymond
gave 5000, but the balance was entirely
raised by the members of Rev. Luz
terra IS churches, OF whom the pastor
had been the constant inspiration.
Rev. NJ Lutera was at one time mis-
sionary to the South Sea Islanders, and
was for some years the pastor of their
church at Labaina. He was at later
date pastor of the Kahakuloa church,
and for the last five years has been in
the Honuaula district of Maui. He
was much respected by the neople of
the island and greatly beloved by the
members of his congregations. The
Hawaiian Board has lost from their
ranks very valuable worker.

and railroad people that the special
passenger train which viii carry labor
ers and officials from town to the naval
station early every morning will run
into the reservation so the men may
be taken to their work without the de.
lays incident to charging cars, etc.
General Passenger Agent Smith of

Six thousand ohia ties to be supplied
by the Hawaiian Mahogany Company
from the forests of Hawaii island have
been contracted for by the Navy De.
partment to be delivered on The Pearl
Harbor naval reservation not later
than January Is, 1909.
Turning out the ties will begin at
once and deliveries may commence in
December. With deliveries at inter
walls during December and January,
track laying may begin in the reserva-
ton before the end of the year.
Six thousand ties will be sufficient
for n little over two miles of track
within the reservation limits, if they
are spaced according to the rule of the
Oahu Railroad and Land Company,
which requires about two feet from
center to center of the ties. This
would require about 2700 ties per mile.
Whenever the navy department be-
gins its railroad construction the Oahu
Railroad Company will follow suit and
run "A spur of about 700 feet from its
main line beyond Puuloa, where it is
closest to the reservation limits adj

The Oahu Railway track will be laid

into the reservation proper. 1.

BLIND PIC RAID IN
PAlAMA RICE FIELDS

Half a mile back in the rice fields of
Palama, Manuel Coito was arrested last
night by Detective Madeiros and Lii
cense Inspector Fennell, having been
discovered doing a fourishing blind-pig
trade with the residents of that portion
of the city. The arrest was easily ac-
complished, although the two officers
had to lie up ~ lnen ears in ooze in the
rain for half an hour before there was
something doing in the blind-pig line
TO warrant their appearance on the
scene. But, if the arrest was easy, it
was another question about getting the
evidence to place where it could be
picked up by the patrol wagon. The
evidence consisted of 50-gallon barrel
of dago red and the work of rolling
that along a l2-inch footpath for half
a mile was no light task. Fennell led
along the prisoner and Madeiros tack
led the barrel.
Following the raid, Coito and his
daughter acknowledged their guilt, all
though the girl, who is the mother of a
small baby, was not arrested. Accord.
ing to their story there is some fair
profit in blind.pig transactions, the wine
which retails downtown for sixty cents
a gallon being dispensed by them at
$3.50.
