Senator Aldrich, chairman of the COM
mittee on finance, opened the debate in
the Senate on his bill to provide an emer-
gency currency. In the galleries was
large audience, among others j. Pierpont
Morgan. Senator Foraker made reply to
the Presidents statement concerning the
use of the appointing power for political
purposes and had letters read showing the
Presidents attitude in one case. Sena-
tor Depew defended the course of the
Secretary of the Treasury in depositing
public funds in New York banks. The
criminal code bill was again considered.
A fiery speech by Mr.. Leake of New Jer-
sey, in which he outlined his opposition
to William j. Bryan as a candidate for
the presidency, relieved somewhat the
monotony of debate in the House. His
remarks were greeted with Kisses from
the Democratic side of the House. The
Indian appropriation bill was amended
so that the commissioner of Indian af-
fairs, before he carries out the policy of
abandoning nonreseryation schools, shall
investigate the question fully and report
to the House. Another amendment re-
stored the appropriations for the Indian
schools at Fort Lewis, Colo; Carson
City, New, and Mount Pleasant, Mich.
Consideration of the Indian bill was not
concluded when the House adjourned.

REPORTERS SAVED
PAPER FROM SCOOP
But We're Arrested on
Charge of Theft.

LOS ANGELES, CAL, March 81
(SpeciaD Charged with being bold
bad burglars, two staff correspondents
and the San Diego correspondent of
the Examiner, William Randolph
Hearst's Los Angeles paper, will be
given a preliminary hearing in San
Diego, Thursday. Men higher up
in the management of the paper are
threatened with prosecution.
The charge against the reporters
grew out OF an alleged enterprising
attempt to prevent the Examiner from
being "scooped' by a rival 1t is
stated that when a San Diego dele
cation and rival newspapers re-
porters returned from a visit to the
American fleet at Magdalena Bay the
Examiner discovered it had no photo
graphs of the ships and the rival had
Reporters were sent to San Diego with
instructions to get these pictures or
not return to the Office William
Beard, in charge of the squad, tried
in vain to buy or borrow pictures or
copies from Photographer Fitch, who
had orders not to let any of them get
away. That night Fitch's gallery was
entered by burglars and the photo
graphs stolen.
A special train was chartered and
the pictures were rushed to the EX-
aminer Office in time to be reproduce
ed. Beard, the reporter, says he was
patted on the back and his name put
on the bulletin board in the office
Then he was arrested, and the prose-
cutor promised him immunity from
punishment if he would implicate the
men higher up. 1t is said he placed
IDn CT Ii.
AS result, another reporter, w
r. Heustis, Of the Examiner was
arrested and taken to San Diego. Hay
den Talbot, San Diego correspondent,
got a warning and started for Mexico
He chartered a pilot boat, and was
two and three-quarter miles from
land and just preparing to board the
ship Culgoaa for MagdaIena when he
was overhauled. He was taken to
San Diego jail in the Black Maria.
He was arraigned with Beard and
Heustis and held in $4,000 bail for a
preliminary hearing today. He adj
mits that he was trying to leave the
country but denies that he had prom
ised the District-Attorrey to appear
in court today. Talbot had to climb
down tire-escape to reach his pilot
boat unobserVed, but the District-At-
torney got the news quickly and pro-
cured a faster steamer.
Talbot insists that his pilot boat
was outside the three-mile limit when
overhauled, and that he was arrested
when on the high seas. He will sue
for damages for false imprisonment
When reproached for running away
from his good friend the District At
torney who has given him several
exclusives" recently, Talbot said he
had heard from Los Angeles that w
r. Hearst had declared he will not
stand the expense Of defending the
Examiner men in trouble.

PRES. CANDIDATES
Better Times Association
Has Opened Up.

NEW YORK, March 31-(SpeciaD-
"The Better Times Association of
America" was established in large
storeroom at 81 Lafayette street
yesterday. The association is to con-
duct a campaign to prevent the cleo
ton of Theodore Roosevelt, Secretary
of War Taft, or William J. Bryan as
president of the United States.
President King said the other mem
bers or officers of the association who
are paying the rent and running eX-
penses, prefer that their names be
kept a secret, at least for the pres
ent.
When asked for what the new Bet
ter Times Association" stood, and
what they expected to accomplish, Mr..
King handed out a lengthy plat
form" which has been adopted by the
members, who prefer to keep their
names from the public. This is the
platform:
In God we Notwithstanding
We stand pat" on the Constitution
and do not want it amended by exc
cutive act-also Notwithstanding.
We respect the courts and resent
executive interference herewith
likewise Notwithstanding.
We believe the average of honesty
in this country is as high as in any
country on earth-again nOtwith-
standing.
We believe the country is all right
slowly cOnvalescing from Indigestion
caused by overwork and from fright
induced by the chief surgeons threat
to remove the patients liver.
We love square deal, but not
everything SO labeled.
We believe punishments should only
follow proof of guilt, whether to
colored or white. corporation or in
dividual-still notwithstanding.
We remember that the corpora
tions are made up of thousands of
stockholders and employ millions of
labor
We favor personal punishments
which hurt the wrongdoers, and not
the innocent stockholders and en-
ployes.
We commend reasonable safeguard
and control over corporations, but
denounce rash, revolutionary, and
conficatory assaults upon them.
We question the sanity of a policy
which burns down the building in
order to drive out a few rats.
we are WedIIeu oL clup SWINGING
and loud noises.
We believe we are entitled to
good times" in these times of plen-
ty.
We regard me" as too strenuous
and my policies too drastic to be
continued either by me" or any
proxy or appointee of me"
We oppose a third term or a Presi-
dents appointing his successor.
We have faith in the power of
public opinion, and believe we can
make ourselves heard and understood.
This platform Mr.. King has had
copyrighted so that none of his par
tvs political opponents may steal the
thunder of the association.

MAPS SHOWING
PUBLIC LANDS
Governor Frear Secured the
Printing of a New
Edition.

When Governor Frear was in Wash
ington he endeavored to get the In
terror department to publish a number
of the maps which were originally
published as a part of Governor Can
ter's report for the year ending June
80, 1906.
These maps show graphically by
colors the various parcels of land own,
ed by the government on each of the
islands. These maps have always been
in great demand, and as the edition
of the report containing them was
limited, there have been none to be
had for some time.
The department on Governor Frear IS
representations has agreed to get out
some of the maps separately, and this
has just been done. The maps have
now been received and may be secured
from the Survey department for fifty
cents each. The number of maps Sc
cured is not large. There are 723 of
Hawaii; 429 of Maui; 1928 of Moloka,
525 of Oahu and 32S of Kauai.

dOHOluIu, July Il, lSUS.
Editor Advertiser: Among the locals
in this mornings paper is one stating
the recollections of an officer of the
visiting fleet, who claims to have been
here forty-one years ago, and "seen
Lord Beresford nail up an American
shield over the doorway of the Amer
lean consulate"
AS a resident of Honolulu at the
time of the visit of H. NJ. S Clio here
in 1865 and 1866 with Lord Charles
Beresford as a midshipman on board,
allow me to say that your informant
is incorrect in stating that Middle
Beresford took down or put up the
shield-he did neither, the perpetrators
of the act being two other midshfpmen
of the same warship-whose names T
viii not mention-who We're chums of
young Lord Beresford, who protected
them by assuming the blame of the
occurrence. They and not Beresford
nailed UP the shield over the gateway
of DIR. McBride's private residence on
Beretania street in the presence of
some of their officers-and a number
war was in port at the time-and I
am not aware that there was an Amer
lean naval officer here then.
