he goes to the mainland in the hope
that change of climate will prove

APPEAR TO ANSWER
TO MURDER CHARGE

James McCandless, charged with
being an accessory after the fact to
the murder of the sailor Wetherill,
was arraigned before Judge De Bolt
yesterday afternoon, as was also Wal
kiki, charged with having committed
the murder. Both reserved their plea
until next Saturday.
When Judge De Bolt asked McCand-
less if he had lawyer, he replied in
the negative, but said that his father,
William McCandless, had been looking
for Attorney Lightfoot to represent
him. He had not, however, found the
attorney. The Judge stated that Mr..
Lightfoot was in the building, and sent
for him. Mr.. Lightfoot said that he
had not been seen in regard to the mat
ter, but for the time being would act
as special counsel for McCandless, and
asked that plea be deferred. The mo-
ton was granted and McCandless' bail
fixed at $500, which it is expected
McCandless, ST., will be able to furnish.
The prisoner S father later came to the
court house and had conference with
Mr.. Lightfoot and arranged with him
to defend his son.
Waikiki stated that he, too, had no
lawyer, and had no money to hire one.
seen her. The judge instructed the po-
lice to allow him to communicate with
his sister with a view to getting a law
yer to defend him. His bail was also
fixed at $500.

WANTS JAPAN
AND AMERICA FRIENDS

TOXIC, Sept. 15.-The speech tonight
of Premier Jutaro Katsura before the
Bankers Club was a review of the
financial condition of the country.
He expressed the belief that the
financial condition of the country is en-
couraging, and while maintaining that
the present system of finances is eX-
cellent, he expressed the hope to stead
lily improve it until perfection is at
tanned.
The premier declared that the policy
commenced the current year of the de-
velopment of resources and the avoid
ance of unproductive expenditure will
be consistently followed. He also ex-
pressed the hope that by lowering the
rate of taxation the burden patriotical-
" borne by a considerable section of
the population would be relieved.
S26,5O0,000 to Redeem Bonds.
Marquis Katsura promised that for
the ensuing year sum considerably in
excess of 53,000,000 yen ($26,5OO, O0O)
will be devoted to the redemption of
bonds. He thanked the bankers for
their support and asked for the con-
fidence and continued unity of the Peo-
pie in the government s policy aimed
toward the upbuilding of the country
through peaceful development.
In conclusion the premier said that
the foreign relations of Japan were
universally good The Anglo-Japanese
alliance, according to Katsura, will be
continued based on the bulwark of
firmest friendship
Japan and American Friends.
He spoke of the warm relations be-
tween Japan and America, where the
japanese business men are now being
entertained so lavishly as the honored
guests of friendly nation, thus en-
surfing closer unity and better under
standing of intercourse between them
Premier Katsura deprecated any fear
of trouble between his country and
China by declaring that all outstand
ing questions between them would be
settled by an exchange of concession;
which would contribute to the assur
ance of peace to the entire world.

BRINGS RELICS Of
ARCTIC TRAGEDY

NEW YORK, September 2O.-Intense
interest is manifested here in the
finding of general Greely's old head.
quarters at Fort Conger by Professor
Donald B. Mcmillan, a member of
Peary's expedition. Many of the stories
Of that tragic Greedy expedition which
Mortified the world we're recalled by
the relics found by Professor McMii-
Ian.
General Greedy and his party hadl
established their headquarters at Fort
Conger and in the fall of 1881 and in
the spring following they made their
unusual dash for the Pole. Returning
to Fort Conger, they expected their
ship, the Protens, to come for them
the next spring. There they waited
until 1888, not knowing that the
Proteus had been shut in the ice try
ing to reach them. Realizing that
starvation awaited them there, the,
party started on its trek southwark, in
which seventeen of them starved to
death.
The personal papers of General
Greedy and members of his party and
the relics found by Professor Mcmillan
in the abandoned hut at Fort Conger
are destined to become some of the
most interesting cargo brought back
to civilization by the Roosevelt.
NORTH CONWAY, N. H., Sept.
2O.-General A. w. Greedy, United
States Army, retired, talked tonight
regarding the discovery by Command
err Robert E. Peary's party of some of
the stores of the Greedy expedition in
1888. He said: "Thcse stores were left
by me in 1883 when retreating south
ward. In 1898, when Peary went north
during the winter from his ship, then
wintering at Cape Durville, he was bad
ly frozen, and was obliged to seek
shelter at my old quarters in Discovery
bay. He then lost eight toes, and was
saved from death by the stores then
found by him in good condition.
81 think it was more than two
months before he was able to return
to his ship. There was left at Conger
all the books, clothing and other per-
sonal belongings of twenty-five men.
almost anything might be found, as
we took with us only our scientific
records, diaries and the clothing which
we wore, with ten pounds of selected
personal property for each man."

DUKE, OF ABRUZZI MAY BE
ARBlTER IN POLE DISPUTE

tifc societies are anxious to see the
Italian lend his assistance.
D'Abruzzi knows more Of conditions
in the far north than any other man
outside the contestants for the honor
of discovery, unless it be Cagni, in
whose company he made his explora-
tions.
In connection with the rumor which
gives to d'Abruzzi the Office of ar
bitter, attention is called to the sup
position that that may have been the
reason for the Italian s going to Lon
don. At the time it was said that he
was to be reunited to Miss Katherine
Elkins, whose fance he was formerly.
1t is also suggested that the report of
his appointment may not be official,
but may have grown out of a desire
on his part to visit Miss Elkins.
One fact that would lead to the prob
ability of a French arbiter being Sc
lected is that that nation would be
the only unprejudiced authority that
could be obtained, and whether the
Duke d'Abruzzi could be unbiased in
the matter is questioned.

'wealths. But it would arouse intense
opposition among the standpatters,
among the manufacturing interests, and
alike in the business and commercial
world generally. In the business world
even the low tariff advocates would be
averse to further disturbance at pres
ent, preferring that there should be a
settled condition rather than tariff
agitation, which always disturbs the
currents of trade.
As already stated, the likelihood of
the President assuming such an atti-
tude before his Western constituents,
was probably put out for political pur-
poses, but in spite of that men are
specializing upon what the consequences
would be. When the extra session of
Congress came to a close, the leaders in
Senate and House were SO utterly weary
of revision work and of the friction it
had produced within the party that
they were fully determined the next re-
vision should be at very distant day,
provided Republicans remain in power.
The stress and strain upon the party
was far beyond anything the average
citizen is able to realize. No Congress
sional legislation in the twelve years
the Republicans have been in uninter-
rupted control of all branches of the
Government has been so trying upon the
legislative organizations or so threaten
ing to the integrity of the party.
If the President should now encour-
age campaign for further revision, the
Western insurgents would Immediately
interpret it as decision on his part to
side with them and against the regulars
in Senate and House. AS he insisted
on standing by the regulars all during
the extra session and on recognizing
them in preference TO the "kickers, "
the regulars would be prompt to resent
a change of front. The legislation of
the coming session would probably be
controlled in considerable part by the
Democrats and the insurgents. For
there are enough wavering Represents
tives and Senators, who would prefer
TO be with the President, TO make the
insurgents very formidable in both leg
islative branches. They would prob
ably hold the balance of power and
could dictate terms.
A Congressional campaign next year
for revision of the tariff could hardly be
confined to the West The Democrats
and low tariff Republicans in the East
would be strong enough TO force tariff
as an issue in Congressional districts
east of Ohio aud Indiana. A revision
issue in the next campaign would mean
revision during the last half OF the Taft
administration, presumably In the sum
mer or autumn Of 1910, II would over
top all other issues and probably would
prove the most burning theme OF ma

.POSTOFF|CE PLANS N
IN THE HANDS OF
THE AUTHORITIES
By Ernest q. Walker.

(Mail Special to the Advertiser.)
WASHINGTON, Sept. 15.-The Uni
ted States Treasury Department today
decided to join The Civil Service Com
mission in recommending to the Presi-
dent the exemption from the classified
service of the employees of the leprosy
investigation station in Hawaii. The
President may make the required ex-
emption during his western trip. He
will be practically compelled to do SO,
as nobody can be found who is willing
to take the examination for positions
at the place where leprosy is investi-
gated.
The Marine Hospital Service is
about to open station on the Island
of Molokai for the thorough study of
the dread disease. Buildings costing
$40 900 have been erected, and the staff
for conducting the investigations is
now being organized.
DR.. d. H. Curry, of the Marine Hos
pital Service, the new director of the
Station, is now on his way to Hawaii
from abroad, where he has been at
tending the international congress on
leprosy at Bergen, Norway. DR.. Wal
ter Brinckerhoff and DR.. HOLMAN, both
experts, will be his assistants. Con-
gress has appropriated $4,000 for the
expenses of the station, and it is ex-
pected that as result of the investi-
cations to be conducted a cure for
leprosy will be discovered.
After President Taft signs the exec
utive order it is expected that the at
tendants and assistants will be secured
in Hawaii.
The ARCHITECTURAL competition for the
plans for the new Federal building at
Honolulu closed at . clock this af-
ternoon. A board of architects of the
Treasury is now at work on the plans.
The award probably will be made in
about ten days.

CAUGHT BY
LEA[
(From Wednesdays Advertiser }

(From Wednesdays Advn-.iser)
Female Fagins are not altogether a
novelty in honolulu, but few are so
bold as eighteen-year-o Thelma Pua,
who was arrested yesterday by CHER
Leal and charged with larceny in the
second degree. As evidence against
this youthful thief the chief has suit
of men s clothes, gold watch chain
and bicycle.
The clothes and bicycle belong to
All Sing, a Chinaman residing in a
second.story room opposite Aala Park.
On Monday night some Chinese saw a
woman leaving the building trundling
a bike and carrying some clothing on
her arm. All Sing reported his loss
to the police and Leal and his men
worked on the case. They located the
girl who was identified by the China
man who saw ner leaving All Sing s
place. She broke down and admitted
the theft ana conducted the police to
another room where the stolen goods
were found.
Ex-pugilists had bad inning in the
police court yesterday morning when
Sailor Morch, a former pug with a
poor reputation and police record
was fined $25 for assault and battery
on a Chinalnan, and Joe Silva, other
wise known as the "'Punchbowl
Demon,' also of little reputation, hav.
ing served time, was fined 500 and
costs for assaulting one Gibson.
Plantation Police officer Spillner
was fined 1875 for assault on a China
man. 1t was brought out in the testi.
mony that Spillner arrested the China
man and in taking him to the office
of the plantation tied the man s hands
and then fastened the other end of the
rope to his saddle. Thus he trotted
off with the prisoner. The prisoner
considered this rather harsh treatment
and had the officer arrested.
George Kaea, the professional gam
bier, pleaded guilty to the charge Of
gambling before the district magis-
trate on Monday morning and was
fined 5000. Judge Andrade handed out
one of the hardest talks ever imposed
upon prisoner, and stated that if
Kaea ever come before him again on
any charge, and particularly for gam.
bling, he would send him to prison.
The other arrested with Kaea were
fined 81 and costs each. Kaea, who
was fined $3.50 few weeks ago on
a gambling charge, appealed his case
to the Circuit Court.

necessary labor on the first day of the
week, commonly called Sunday. Meth
er the Attorney General IS department
nor the Liquor Commission can see
that the filing of beer orders on Sun
day was necessary work.
The saloon men may not have vio-
lated the letter of the law, and posi-
bly, are not subject to arrest, but the
powers Of the Liquor Commission are
very nearly arbitrary, and if the con-
mission decides to take away the Ii
cense from any man, that man loses
and has small chance of beating the
case. 1t is said that nearly all the
saloons in Honolulu last Saturday sold
orders on the brewery for Sunday de-
livery and have laid themselves liable
to the loss of their licenses.
With the brewery the case is differ
ent. 1t has not only violated the in
tent, if not the letter, of the liquor
law, and is therefore subject to the
loss of it's license, but it has also, in
the opinion of the Deputy Attorney
General, violated the statutes in that
some of its men were required to work
on Sunday. The offenders are, there
fore, thought to be liable to punish
ment under the Territorial laws, which
of itself endangers the license of the
brewery.
The grand jury will probably be call
ed upon to investigate the charges
against the brewery and is expected
in that case to bring in indictments
under which the offenders will be tried.

ing. Some of our liquor men must be
sailing under false colors! Instead Of
favoring saloons they must be anti
saloon. Hardly anything could have
been done which would exert a stronger
influence in Congress against saloons in
Hawaii, than last Sundays diseredit-
able business. And the whole thing was
set on foot, not by our Antisaloon
League, TO create a strong prejudice
against Honolulu saloons, but by the
saloon men themselves. "Whom the
gods would destroy, they first make
mad" seems to be as true now as it
Was long ago.
If our saloon men know anything, and
1 have always credited them with plenty
of shrewd wit, they know that, with the
present state of feeling in the United
States on the saloon question, Congress
will only be too pleased to get some
ching pretty rotten and dirty rs rea-
son for prohibiting saloons in this Ter.
ritory. They may be sure that the
Antisaloon League of the United
States, a political body far more pow
erful than the whole combined liquor
interests Of the country, will cheerfully
place all of the facts about last Sun
days beer business before Congress.
1t really looks as though the men we
have always supposed were saloon men
are, in fact, opposed to the saloon and
want Congress to abolish the whole of
the evil in Hawaii. They could not
have hit on a better plan to further
that end, than exactly what was done.
The Navy is a tender subject with Con
gress and the sailors are regarded as
the special wards of the nation. 1t
must be that these people want saloons
abolished, and their wish is not unlikely
to be granted.
