The fact that fourteen cases of shells

COUNTERFEIT CASE.

The case of Kim Hey Wan, one of
the Koreans from Kauai charged with
having in his possession counterfeit
gold coin, is now on trial in the United
States District court, having been
taken up this morning. Like Ong Too
Wan, who was convicted yesterday OF
the same offense, the prisoner declined

preferring to make his own defense.

States which may require them for
target practice or otherwise, the idea
being to have ammunition on hand on
this island to be drawn on as it may
be required by American men-of-war,
as coal is kept here for supply.
AS a naval and military supply sta
tion Honolulu will soon be well stock
ed.
A correspondent recently suggested
that the people of Honolulu urge to
have the big fleet engage in target
practice off this port or off Pearl Har-
Dor, that Honolulu might get the bene-
fit of an extended sojourn of the fleet
1t is not unlikely that the shipping OF
shells here may point to a spell of tar

"Prince Julian Begins the New

the January number of the Trans
atlantic Tales. The story deals with
the adventures of madcap German
prince, who takes it into his head to

intrigue, and a very pretty love
theme give it a wide appeal.
Probably the strongest and "big-

from the Swedish Of Selma Lager

compares with Kipling-or, better,
with the more polished Thomas

NEGROES SHOOT FIVE WHITE MEN.

Serious Conflict Between Races al
Bryson city--The Blacks in Jail and
Threats of Lynehing Made--Partieu'
lars of the Affair.
Bryson City, \. G, Dec 31.-In
a race riot between whites and
blacks here yesterday, five white
men were shot and number OF
others badly injured. RevOlvers,
iron spikes aud rocks were freely
used by both sides. All Of the in
jur1d are white.
The most seriously injured are
Gilmore Banks, eye shot out; VIM.
Jenkins, shot in head 4; Jas. Sluder,
shot in mouth; Frank Williams,
shot in back.
A dozen or more negroes have
been arrested and commanded to
jail pending an investigation of the
difficulty. There is much feeling
over the occurrence.
The trouble occurred at the South
ern Railway station, where large
number of passengers were In the
waiting room of the station. Bad
blood has existed between the
whites and blacks for some time.
The negroes have INDUCED in the
practice of throwing heavy iron
railroad spikes and rocks at white
men at night. Serious trouble had
been mOmentarily expected and
both whites and blacks have been
armed for several days.
About twenty white men were
standing on the platform of the sta
ton when a squad of negroes ap-
preached, stepped a short distance
away, and without further warning
began 20 shoot in the crowd, five of
the men being struck before their
companions had grasped the situa-
ton sufficiently to prepare for de-
Tense.

New York Trust Companies and
the Panic.

Tic L anIcs
The most remarkab BILE development
Of the banking business Of New
York City during the past ten years
has been the growth Of its trust
panies. By paying interest on
deposits, thereby attracting business,
by not observiDg-noU being obliged
to do 80 by law-certain safeguards
required of the national banks, as,
for instance, in the matter of re-
serves, they have cut heavily into
the banks business. In New York
City alone they have deposits Of
hundreds ofsmillions. To be able
to make money after paying the
high interest on deposits that they
paid, they were naturally obliged to
take chances and run risks that no
conservative banker would approve.
They engaged in ventures, under
writings, development schemes, ETC.,
that nothing but the amazing pros
perity Of the past decade prevented
from failing disastrously. Now, the
public knew all this in a vague way,
but the public always insists on
astutely waiting for the horse to be
stolen before locking the stable door.
But when Mr.. Barney resigned as
president of the Knickerbocker Trust
Company, it believed that all it had
ever heard about the business meth
DDS of certain trust companies was
true of the Knickerbocker. The run
began-somebody asked for a dol
lar land then there was panic
sheer, blind, unreasoning fear.
Of course, the suspension of pay
ment by the Knickerbocker Trust
Company, an institution with $685.
100000 of deposits, was the signal
for runs on other institutions and
not only in New York City, but
elsewhere, trust companies and banks
closed their doors. After sleepless
nights and much thought, the ma
jority of the banks of the great
metropolis of the United States de-
cided to issue Clearing House certifi-
Gates. Other cities followed the ex-
ample Of New York-anything in |
order not to have to pay out the |
money that they did not have -

NEGROES MUST OWN PROPERTY.

No Suffrage For Those Who Are Not
Worth Five Hundred Dollars Re-
quired in MaryIand-- Grandfather
Clause Agreed on as to White Voters.
Baltimore, Md Dec. 31.-Tbat
the negro is to be disfranchised in
Maryland through the property
qualification and not the educational
test, was decided upon at meeting
of the leaders of the Democratic
party at the EutaW House. They
also agreed upon the grandfather
clause. 1t is no picayune sum which
the leaders will impose as a requi-
site to voters. The minimum sum
will be $500, and it may be 81 900.
1t was claimed in the discussions
that lew colored men in the counties
can register under this test. OF
course the white men will be emit
tied to register under the grand
father naturalization clause.
There will surely be opposition to
the property test to the exclusion of
the educational qualification. The
latter proposition is favored by Sen
ator William Pinckney White, Gov.
WarfeId, Attorney General Isaac
Strauss and by other Democratic
leaders of this city and Of the CEN
trail and western counties.
