FATE OF STEINHEIL
SOON TO BE DECIDED
Government Thought to Have a
Weak Case, and She
May Go Free.
(By Associated Press.)

PARIS, November 13-The introduc-
ton of evidence in the famous Stein

but the argument of counsel is between
the accused murderess and the deciding
of her fate.
The advocate general for the prosecu.
ton yesterday made an impassioned ad-
dress to the court. summing up the
prosecution s theory of the case. The
deeds which Madame Steinheil is ac-
cused of committing were painted in
the blacklist colors by the advocate who
insisted that if she was not the prin-
eipal she was most certainly an Access
sorry to the crimes.
Despite the oratory of the advocate
there is a general impression among
those who have followed the case close
ly, and this might be said to be all

eminent has put up a weak case and

UTCHIYhMA IS
FOUND GUILTY
Will Be Sentenced on Twentieth
of This Month for Mailing
Obscene Matter.

Jusukiehi Utchiyama was found
guilty yesterday afternoon by a jury
sitting in the United States district
court of sending scurrilous and obscene
matter through the mails. Sentence has
been postponed until the twentieth Of
this month.
Breckons rested the case for the pros
ecution yesterday afternoon, and
Lightfoot, who, with his son, Bert
Lightfoot, and Negoro, are defending,
moved that the jury be directed to re
turn verdict of not guilty. This mo-
ton was denied by Judge Woodruff.
Lightfoot based his motion on the
grounds that the prosecution had failed
to prove their case, that the scurrilous
matter supposed to have been written
on the outside wrapper was not writ
ten there. because there WASH t any out
side wrapper, and also that the words
used were not scurrilous. Another rea-
son given was that the Indictment said
that the bundle was sent to the Ha-
waii Shinpo Sha, which could not have

The jury chose to overlook these
technicalities, and after several hours
discussion returned a verdict as noted
Lightfoot offered no defense, permit
ting the case to go to the jury at once
after his motion for a directed verdict
was refused. Lightfoot objected siren
uously during the trial to all the evi
denee submitted, basing his principal
fights on the lack of the outside wrap
per and the wrong address in the in
dictment

between japanese and English words

The company now has a large acre

Turkish Collectors Solicit Funds.
Mayor Fern Sponsor
for Them.

A trio of orthodox Turkish priests,
as their description was designated on
the manifest of the Pacific Mail steam
ship on which they arrived here re-
Gently, are making the rounds of the
residence districts soliciting subscrip-
tions to an "orphans hospital and
home' in a vaguely limited at section
of western Asia, presumed to be some
where in Chaldea. The original letter,
which they allege was given them by
the head of their order, is written in
Turkish or some other Asian language
not readable or understandable by any
of the people to whom they show it.
Below this Turkish script, however,
is typewritten version of what pur-
ports to be a translation, the signer IS
named being spelled out in type. The
alleged translation sets forth that the
priests belong to the order and arc
representatives. of church IN Chaldea
and that the church is poor and the
people there are. greatly in need of an
orphan s hospital, and the aims of PEG,
pie are solicited that the hospital may
be built.
In addition to this letter the priest
will also hand over letter signed by
J J. Fern, mayor of Honolulu, address
ed to "whom it may concern,' and
bearing the impression seal of the City
and County of Honolulu, setting forth
that the priests are what they represent
themselves to be and are commended to
the people of Honolulu.
At the mayors office it is stated that
one of the priests has letter from
the British consul of the place from
which they started on their alleged mis-
sion and have other letters from British
consuls in ports at which they have
stopped while en- route TO Honolulu, the
last coming from Manila. 1t is stated
in the Governor IS office tai one of the
priests asked for a letter and he was
referred to the local British consul. The
priests came back and said the consul
would not give him a letter, whereupon
the mayor jumped into the breach and
affirmed that the men were what they
represented themselves to be. 1t is
stated from the mayors office, also
that the head priests insisted on hav-
ing the city and county's seal impress

CHILE WILL ADD SIX
BOATS TO HER NAVY
fBy Associated Press.l

SANTIAGO, Chile, November r.
The Chilean government has decided to
add to its navy and keep its place as
being the most modern among South
American governments in navy policies.
She already has the largest navy of
any of her sister republics below the
Isthmus and has now appropriated
fourteen million dollars to construct one
battleship of the most modern type,
four destroyers and one submarine.
This increased armament forces Peru
out of any hope that she might enter
tain of ever recovering the two prov
inces she lost to Chile in the war of
the Pacific, thirty years ago, for which
she has been continually negotiating.
Peru's navy is practically nil, having
been destroyed by Chile.

PLANTERS WILL.
TAKE SOME
ACTION
Representative and Responsible
Japanese Present a
Resolution.
JAPANESE WAGE QUESTION
Matter of Wide Importance to
the Industrial Welfare of
the Islands.

The question of increasing the wages
of the japanese plantation laborers
will, it is said, be one of the most in
teresting to be discussed at the coming
meeting Of the planters association.
Certain members of the association are
said to have informed the editors of
the japanese newspapers that the reso-
lutions adopted recently by the Japa-
nese editors in regard to plantation
wages will be carefully considered by
the planters, and it is expected that
some definite action, probably along the
line of increasing wages, will be taken.
The japanese editors held a conven-
tion on October 10 at the residence of
S. Sheba, at which policy was formu-
lated in regard to laborers wages, the
contract labor system, the higher wage
agitation and the general relations be-
tween plantations and plantation labor
ers. At that meeting the following
resolutions were adopted, being publish
ed in The Advertiser October II:
We, the japanese representatives of
the japanese newspapers published in
each island within the Territory of ha-
waii, assembled in the City of Homo
lulu, pass, this day, the following reso-
buttons in the hope of advancing the
interests of the Japanese laborers.
Therefore, be it
Resolver, That we believe, to our
regret, that the good reputation of our
countrymen residing in the Territory
of Hawaii has been impaired through
the labor agitation caused and led by
q few irresponsible men who styled
themselves the leaders of the Higher
Wage Association.
Resolved, That we denounce the ac-
ton of the Higher Wage Association
because, whereas, with a tempting bait
of higher wages, they have collected
from laborers over $50 1000, that amount
being either spent in vain or improper
w appropriated, and because they yet
engage agents on commission to col
lect more money from innocent labor
ers under different pretenses.
Resolved, That we consider 1t I'M
Just and dishonorable to tax innocent
laborers on mere promises of good re-
turns which have not been fulfilled and
which will never materialize to the
benefit of the laboreTs. We further
condemn such actions as being nothing
less than a pure fraud. Therefore,

MEANING Of ARbOR
AND CONSERVATION
DAY IS EXPLAINED

Yesterday was Arbor and Conserva-
ton Day, and trees were planted in all
parts of the city, while in the public
schools appropriate programs were Civ
en- calculated to teach the children the
meaning of the day and ineulcate in
them the love for trees and plant life
which it is expected will make them
better and more valuable citizens of
Hawaii.
The board of forestry and agricul-
ture distributed free large numbers of
Young trees to be set out in the school
yards and the yards of the residents
of the city, and few years from now
the results of the days work and
teachings will be evidenced by spread
ing shade trees and productive fruit
trees.
Several of the prominent ladies and
some of the men of the city spoke at
various schools. Professor Bryan of
the agricultural college addressed the
pupils of the KalihiwaeDa school. Mrs.
w. F. Frear was the principal speaker
at the Normal School. Alfred Finley
Thaver spoke at several of the schools

WHITE MERCHANTS
MUST WAKE UP
Early Closing Every Day Drives
Trade Away From Fort
Street Stores.

George W. Smith. chairman of the
committee ON public affairs of the
merchants > association, has addressed
a letter to the president of the asso-
citation, Fred L. Waldron, requesting
him to present at the next meeting a
proposition which. it is believed. will
receive favorable comment from the
members-that of opening retail stores,
represented in the association, at
night, at times when the men of the
army and navy branches stationed in
and about Honolulu are on general
leave
Mr.. Smith calls attention to the fact
that at the present time there are sta
toned on this Island, adjacent TO Ho-
nolulu, bodies of American citizens in
the service of the army and navy. He
gives figures showing the amount of
the payrolls for the men of Fort Shat
ter, Fort De Russy. Fort Ruger, scho-
field Barracks and Camp Very.
Mr.. Smith says that the men come
into town mainly during evenings and
can not have access to the stores kept
by citizens, for the reason that their
| liberty time is in the evening, and
, with few exceptions the citizen store
| keepers close their places of business
at FIVE clock in the afternoon.
In Mr.. Smith IS letter it is suggested
, that, by resolution, the merchants as
