POLICE COURT FINES
TOTAL GOODLY sums

Eighteen gamblers. the fruits of the
two raids of Wednesday. were convict
ed in the police court yesterday. Seven
OF these were Japanese, who anteed
into the scale of justice to the extent
Of SIS. The rest were Chinese. who
coughed up altogether s66.
The result OF the trial of Tagami.
who was running a blind pig on King
street, near Liliha, until Lieutenant
Luahiwa raided the place. was to add
$3.50 more to the pile before Judge An
drade. while three hackdrivers. who
had left their horses united while soli-
citing patronage from the Claudine
passengers in the early morning, added
their mites of So apiece. This made
the total fines for the two hour ses-
sion, $3.50.
Between the collecting features OF
the morning the judge took time to
pass a sixty day sentence on William
Rosario, who had stolen $3.50 from an
Iwilei woman. and to listen to the plea
of Frank Grau why he should have
another chance. Frank advanced the
argument that this was his first spree
this year. His sentence was suspended
for thirteen months to gave him an
to show how much there
was in his story that he had straight
ened up.
The six other blind pig cases down
for trial went over until February Z.

THE OLD ECLIPSE.

Among the seafaring men in this
city the Eclipse has none too good a
name. It appears that she was a very
old boat and leaked continually. The
last successful voyage she made was
from Newcastle to Kaanapali with
coal. 1t is stated that on this trip
she needed TO be pumped every day.
OF course there was no great amount
of danger from this, but it shows that
il did not require very much to cause
her TO go practically to pieces.
1t is said that many of. her officers
and men made only one trip in her on
account of this trouble. Mate Girard.
of the Fort George. was her mate, but
in Newcastle, when the two ships were
in port together, he took the position
of second mate on the Fort George
rather than the better paid job on the
Eclipse. First Mate Cameron. Of the
Eclipse, was 10 60 on the other vessel
as second mate, but changed shortly
before sailing.

NEW YORK NEWS LETTER.
Interesting Notes Of Americas Me-
tropolis.

New York, Sept 2S-Traveling
Fifty thousand miles for over three
thousand hours, representatives from
dozen nations are to-day bound for
this city to plan organized help for
the sailor on every sea of the globe.
For the first time in history an in
ternational conference in the inter
est of millions of men who live on
the ocean has been called by the
American Seamen's Friend Society,
and from almost every country in the
world delegates are hurrying here to
be present at the gathering on Octo-
Der 4th. America will be represen-
ted by authorities on the interests Of
seamen from more than dozen Of
the society's branch stations in the
leading ports on both coasts.
To outline and propose remedies
for the problems with which the
great international body OF seafarers
is faced on every shore of the world
to-day is the object of this unique
congress. The worldwide ways of
the crimp, the boarding master, the
shipping agent and ship owner will
be discussed by men who have made
life long study throughout the
globe of these vital elements in the
life OF jack-ashore. The treatment Of
jackies in the navies of the nations
as we'll as the merchant marine will
come up for consideration. Efforts
will also be made to perfect the or
ganization by which the American
Seamen's Friend Society is aiming
to keep in touch with the shifting bo-
DIV of sailors through their forty-ive
stations all over the world.
From Great Britain, E. W. Matt
hews, secretary of the British and
Foreign Sailors Society of London
is on his way to give the conference
the benefit of his investigations in
four OF the globe which he has just
completed The problems Of the
sailor man in Mediterranean ports
will be reported by T. J. Irving, who
is bound for New York from Naples,
where he has for years been an active
worker for stranded seamen. Chap
lain Wollesen Of the society's station
at Copenhagen has to-day arrived in
this city and will be followed by 9th
er leading workers in the ports of
Germany, Holland and Sweden.
From the Western Hemisphere
veteran workers for the American
Seamen's Friend Society from Mon
treal down to Buenos Ayres are al
ready embarked on their long jour
ney to the American conference.

DODGING THE SPEAKER.
One Of the First Cases Of Filibustcrin.
In Conoregs,

One Of the first Instances Of flllbus.
tering occurred IN 1906 just after the
impeachment trial of the Hon. Samuel
Chase, one Of the associate justices OF
the supreme court. A quarrel arose
over the payment Of witnesses. The
house Of representatives would pass no
bill which provided for the payment
Of those summoned by Chase. The
senate would pass no bin which did
not, and conference followed. Each
refused TO yield, and the bill was lost.
John Randolph then attempted In
the closing hours Of the session to
have the witnesses for the managers
Of the trial paid out Of the contingent
fund of the house. But the FederalIsts
were ready They hurried from the
room, and when the vote was taken
the speaker announced no quorum.
Members were thereupon summoned
from the lobby and committee rooms.
Hardly were they III their seats when
a message from the president was an
nounced, and while the clerk was read
ing It the Federalists again left the
room, so that when the resolution was
second time called up there was
again no quorum, Once more the SER
geant at arms went into the lobby,
and once more the members came In.
But an enrolled bill was reported. and
while the speaker was signing 1t the
Federalists a third time slipped out.
The announcement Of no quorum which
followed was greeted with shouts Of
laughter. Randolph In a great passion
desisted. and late on the evening OF
Sunday. March 3. 1905. the Eighth
congress ended. Baltimore American.
