warning the Chinaman of the suspi-
| cions against him and allowing him to
escape. The case had been worked up
| by Postoffice Inspector Hare, who con-
| fided part of his plan to Kekauoha,
| then the deputy sheriff of Koolauloa.
| The plan was to save expense to the
country by supboenaing Man Pho along
with a number of witnesses wanted,
getting him to Honolulu and serving
a warrant on him here. When the
| subpoenas went over and the witnesses
came, Man Pho failed to show up, and
| he was never officially seen since until
Manuel walked up to him yesterday,
where he was planting melons down
by the sea at Kailua. and placed him
under arrest.

Hendry has kept the fact in mind and
| has kept an eye open for him. The

| locating him. A short time ago an
other Chinaman, named All Wa, was
arrested on suspicion of being the
wanted one, and although this turned

Hendry, returning with his man yes

All wa has now been released.
