COMMITTEE IS
Still DIGGING
If Ii Don't Convict LilIey
Twill Be No Fault
of Theirs

Washington, D. c., April 1S.-The
authorship of the anonymous let
tiers that have been introduced in the
investigation of the Electric Boat Co.
was diligently inquired into today by
the house committee conducting the
investigation. David N. Carvalho
and VIM. j. Kingsley of New York,
and Albert S. Osborne of Rochester,
handwriting experts and experts as
to typewriting, testified that two
letters and certain documents pre-
sened to the committee by Repres-
entative Lilley and which it has
been testified were written by Abner
e. Neff, Of the Lake Torpedo Boat
Co., on typewriter in the Lake Co.
office, wree all written on the same
typewriter. Neither Mr.. Lilley nor
Mr.. Neff was questioned by the COM
mittee on this point, and both de-
MED during the day that they had
written anonymous letters or that
they knew anything about them.
Mr.. Lilley, at the beginning OF the
days session, presented the letter
from the commissioner of patents
stating that no patent has been
granted to Chas. E. Nelson during
the last ten years. This document
was introduced for the purpose or
contradicting the testimony OF the
Electric company officials that they
had paid Mr.. Nelson, who is a lieu
tenant in the navy, 81 500 for a pat
ent he had secured.

100000 People Crowd the
Ocean Side to Greet
the Ships
Whole Week viii Be Given
Over to Entertainment
Of Crews

Los Angeles, Cal, April 1S.-Los
Angeles sent more than 100000 of its
residents to the ocean side today to
welcome the American battleship
fleet, which steamed into San Pedro
harbar % miles from here, and drop
ped anchor. at $3.50 p. m. The sixteen
fighting vessels and the auxiliaries,
leaving San Diego shortly after s
O'clock this morning, had steamed up
the 100 miles of surf-beaten coast in
single column formation, 400 yards
apart, and in full view of thousands of
persons who gathered at every van
tage point.
With the Connecticut leading, with
Rear Admiral Charles M. Thomas on
the bridge, the long line of ships point
ships pointed within the breakwater at
San Pedro bay just half an hour be-
hind schedule time. The Connecticut,
Kansas, Vermont and Louisiana took
up berths within the sheltered portion
of the harbor, where they are to re-
main for a full seven days visit.
While the twelve ships of the second,
third and fourth divisions reached out
| into the open water in a line nearly
| two miles long.
/ The arrival Of the fleet was accom-
panied by all Of the flashing of colors
| and embellishments that have made
| it's presence in every home and for
eign port visited in the last four,
months a marine picture unrivaled i'm
imposing beauty. Thousands of people
who made the occasion of the arrival
holiday and who lined the sea walls,
breakwaters and beaches surrounding
the bay, fairly went wild in their en-
thusiasm as the fleet steamed into po-
sition. They had watched the ships
gron:' from a miniature squadron of
| smoke in the distance to the full
grown glory of the near view offered
in the confines of the harbor, and
when anchors dropped with a white
splash into the rippling waters, whis-
ties blew in a perfect pandemonium of
greeting, while cheers grew in volume
until they could be heard on board the
Minnesota, the last Of the big fight
ers in the far-reaching column.
Tonight the fleet was Illuminated

had dropped from the signal yards.
Admiral Thomas received the visitors
in his cabin and thanked them for the
cordial greetings extended

Los Angles during the next week is
to be marked by most elaborate

the enlisted men and officers, the city
has ever known. Tomorrow morning

rons in order that the four Los An

WARDEN REFUSES
TO RECEIVE noah
BELIEVES PEN EXECUTION LAW
NO GOOD AND WILL TEST 1T
NOTIFIES WARD COUNTY sHER-
lFF TO TAKE HIM AWAY.

Word reached this city last night
from Minot that Warden Hellstrom of
the penitentiary had notified the Ward
county officials that he would not re-
ceive Murderer Noah, although he was
already in the pen, as he believed the
prisoner should be hanged by the
Ward county sheriff, the law prescrib-
ing that all executions be at the peni-
Tertiary being, in his opinion, uncon-
stitutional According to this report,
the sheriff at Minot has asked the
warden to hold the prisoner until the
case can be decided in court, it being
understood the warden intends to
make test case of it,
1t was impossible to verify this re-
port last night, owing TO the lateness
of the hour, but from remarks made
by the warden the night Noah was
brought to the city, it is probable the
story is correct.

Lindsberg, Kan, April 1S.-Gover-
nor John A. Johnson of Minnesota,
was the guest this afternoon and to-
night of theBethany college. This
afternoon he was master of ceremon-
les at the college track meet, and to-
night he delivered a speech to a
crowd assembled in the college audi
forum. He was enthusiastically re-
ceived.
To-day he said, "there are those
who for the purpose of expedience,
favor new federalism in order that
the country may take more promi-
nent place among the nations of the
world. | say that if we site kto the
traditions of 1776 the world will re-
spect this nation. When we took
Hawaii and the Philippines we were
told that those people were not fit
for self government. That has been
the cry for years and years, not be-
cause it is true, but because those
who are in power want that power.

particular person, but we have ap-
parently come to a time when the
constitution is not good enough.
Washington, in referring to the
constitution, said that it could be

long as it is not changed by the peo-
pie it should be observed as it stands.
Why, within the last six months the
United States marshal laid violent
hands upon the attorney general OF
my state and said that he must come
to his court for doing that which
the legislature had commanded him
to do. And the federal court approx
ed the marshal's. action. I say thai
such proceeding is not right; it is
reflection of the policy of the cen

DISTINGUISHED HAWAIIANS
COME TO HUNT BEAR

Colonel Sam Parker, his son in law,
Prince David of Hawaii, and John
Baker were passengers on the Sibe-
ria, which arrived yesterday from Ho-
nolulu. The distinguished visitors
have come to the States for the pur-
pose of hunting bear in Washington
and Oregon and have brought with
them enough guns and ammunition
TO wipe out every bruin in both states.
NO business is to be transacted while
the party is here; the visit is exclu-
slVely pleasure trip and will last
FOR several months.
In the party, attended by two
maids, is the little Princess Kapio-
lanl years of age, exceedingly pref
ty and, according to the passen-
ges on the Siberia, the brightest
child on board the ship When the
photographer asked for permission to
take her picture she was most oblig-
ing and even offered to take off her
hat so he would be sure to get
good one. The passengers on the
ship We're not aware that they had
princess on board until the ship
was near this city.-S. f. Call.

THA4
Will LLNGER

Immediately upon the arrival of the
big fleet in Honolulu on July 16, Lieut.
Commander j. f. Carter whose posi-
ton is commander of the S. s. 1ro-
quois here, will be transferred to the
battleship Georgia, probably as eXecu-
tive officer, the executive officer of the
Georgia taking command of hte Iro-
quois here.
The approaching change in the SER
vice this morning on the waterfront re-
called IN entertaining incident which
has never before been immortalized in
print.
When the P M. S. S. Manchuria was
being towed into this harbor by the
cable ship Restorer the Iroquois, with
Carter in command, was supposed to
be assisting in handling her, but in
some way the commander became rat
tied and the line the Iroquois had on
the Manchuria behaved in so queer a
manner that the Iroquois was swung
about and towed into the harbor stern
first by the restorer's power. There is
likely to be no more such fun when
Carter goes.

Will BUY
.THEPUMP
BIDS TO BE CALLED AT ONCE
FOR PLANT TO RAISE ARTESIAN
WATER.

An advertisement will be inserted in
the newspapers within the next TWEEN
ty-four hours, calling for bids for a
gasoline engine, which will be used
to pump water from the Makiki well
for the general supply of the city. AS
was told exclusively in the Star on
Saturday, the supply from this source,
amounting to about 100000 gallons
daily, has not been available as tnere
was no engine with which to run the
pump. The need of this water has be-
come such that, after a talk on the
subject with Acting-Governor Mott
Smith, it has been decided to buy a
pump, and rely on an appropriation
from the legislature to supply the de-
ficiency.
The department expects to have a
deficiency when will be in the neigh
borhood of $4,000, but every cent OF
the money has been carefully expend-
ed and the appropriations have never
been overrun except where a great saw
ing could be made to the Territory or
a situation of emergency existed.
