Jessie Logan, in Police Court, Has Her
Hopes Dashed When Messenger
Fails to Arrive With Ball Money.

The morning grind q police court

women who had offended in various
ways, from smoking opium to inhabit-
Ing house OF immortality.

week was also aIraigned on another
charge and given a stiff sentence in
jail
Susan Jones, colored, was arraigned
on the charge OF vagrancy. She plead
ed guilty after a somewhat lengthy
attempt to explain and was given u
ten-day sentence for 'single-footing," I"
as Detective Pender termed it when
examined as a witness.
Mary Spencer. colored, was charg-
ed Win being In a Chinese opium
joint She stated that she was not
there for the purpose OF "hittin' the
pipe,' but admitted her presence in
the building, which drew a sentence
OF thirty days. The court finally de-
cided that the city would be better
of without Mary's company and sus-
pended the sentence provided she
leaves town Immediately. The dusky
defendant needed no further urging
but made a break for the door through
which she madly plunged and was
making speed across the park with one
shoe missing when seen.
John Pennington, colored, was
charged with being dope head and
entered a somewhat unnecessary plea
of guilty as his appearance was con
elusive proof Of the charge. The court
gave him sentence OF twenty days
on the rock pile,
Jessie Logan was charged with va
grancy. She pleaded guilty and, after
some testimony on the part Of the of
f1cers had been introduced, the court
imposed fine Of $50 or nifty days In
jail. Just previous to the calling OF
court, a telephone message to the Of
ficers asked how much Jessle's bail
would be. The inquirer was told that
1t would be $40 and the romantically-
inclined habitues OF the court waited
expectantly for the thud OF hurrying
footsteps from without and the mad
entry of a messenger with the neces-
sary funds for Jessie's release. They
were doomed to disappointment. how
ever, and the disconsolate woman was
led away with her pet poodle nipping
at her heels.
r. H. Miller was arraignej on the
charge of mendicancy. He inquired
what the word meant and upon being
informed pleaded guilty, receiving
sentence of ten days with the rock
gang.
Joseph Hagen was charged with
drunkenness. He responded to his
name with prompt Present and
then pleaded guilty. The usual fine
of s5 or five days WAS imposed.
Evan James forfeited S5 for drunk
enness by not appearing In court So

horse united on the street Thursday.

A|EA MEN ARE
DRIFTING BACK
The Conditions on Plantation
Are Decidedly More
Encouraging.

Gradually the striking Japanese are
drifting back to Aiea plantation and
applying for their jobs. Several of
the contractors have already returned
TO work and they are getting as many
workmen together as they can. In all
only about 100 men nave returned as
vet. but it is confidently expected that
the laborers will show up in increasing
numbers tomorrow.
The strikers are showing no lncllna-
ton to interfere with those who have
returned to work and conditions on
the plantations are not such as to cause
any uneasiness on the part OF the or
ficials.
A report was spread yesterday after
noon to the effect that the small house
which burned down Friday night, was
destroyed by ineendiaries, either strlk-
ers or persons acting under their d.
rections. Manager Ross stated last
night that there is absolutely no ground
for any such report and that the strik-
ers had nothing to do with it.
As matter of fact, the house was
inhabited by some strikebreakers who
were having little spree all their own

CITIZENS WILL
QUARRY ROCK
Territorial Prisoners Are No
Longer Available for
County Work.

Road Supervisor Wilson will want
thirty-fve extra laborers tomorrow.
Henceforth there will be no more terri
torial prisoners available for work in
Moiliii quarry and citizens labor will
have to be engaged in their stead.
Some time ago High Sheriff Henry
gave notice that, after the end of July,
he would withdraw all prisoners from
the quarry, and yesterday afternoon the
lunas drew their last money from the
county.
Heretofore there have been from for.
ty-fve to fifty prisoners available for
work at Moiliili quarry These will now
be put to work on Tantalus road and
other territorial work. Wilson believes
that thirtyfve citizens can do as much
work as the prisoners ever did, and
he will employ men on that basis.
As the rock from Moilii1i quarry is
needed right along for road work, there
can be no shutting down Of work at
the quarry, and tomorrow morning,
bright and early, Wilson viii secure his
new men and put them to work.

JObSON OFF THE
TENDER KUkU|
Capt. Nelson Replaces Former
Master of Lighthouse
Steamer.

Captain Jobson, of the United States
Lighthouse Tender Kukui, was detaeh-
ed from duty as master yesterday and
his position filed by Captain Nelson,
one of the Inter-Island company s
seamer captains. Captain Jobson may
be assigned to duty elsewhere and
possibly will be given command of a
ightship. AS he has been serving
seven years under civil service re-
guirements, his services will be con-
tinued in the treasury department.
The change of masters aboard the
Kukui has been rumored on the front
for several weeks, and it was thought
that mate Middleton would be given
command in case of any change, but it
is understood that the present arrange
ment is satisfactory to Mr.. Middleton,
as there are certain circumstances at
tending the detaching of Captain job
son, principally his lack of knowledge
of local shore lines, which Mr.. Middle
ton thought might also apply to him
self and he felt he was justified IN
remaining in his recent berth, or at
least until he became more thoroughly
acquainted with the rocky coasts of
the islands.
Captain Jobson came here in COM
mand of the Kukui, and he was natur-
ally without any personal knowledge OF
the peculiar outline of the coasts and
the dangerous reefs projecting out in
to the sea, reefs over which many a
good mariner has stumbled. Captain
Jobson ran the Kukui aground on vari-
Gus islands, once or twice at Pearl
Harbor, once at Kaunakakai and else
where, but the vessel was not dam
aged to any extent Once she almost
rammed the transport Dix at the Naval
wharves. On the ground that Captain
Jobson was insufficently acquainted
with the island shores, absolutely nee
essary in the handling Of the Kukul
which had to be brought close inshore
in many unfrequented parts of the is
lands in her visits to lighthouses and
lighthouse sites, Lieut.. Houston, U. >.
n, who has charge of the lighthouse
service in Hawaii, asked for trans
fer for Captain Jobson. The matter
of advancement of a member of the
crew Of the Kukui was presented to
the officers and unfamiliarity with the
coast lines was shown to them as an
element in navigation which might
prove the undoing of Jobson s sue
cessor. 1t was concluded that man
of some local reputation as manner
should be selected and Captain Nelson
was chosen That the latter IS thor
oughlv familiar with every indentatIon
of the shores of all the islands, almost
goes without saying. He has com.
manded inter-island boats for several
years, his latest command being the
steamer Helene.

P|CkETS KEEP
MEN FROM WORK
Returning Waipahu Strikers
Turned Back by Higher
Wage Men.

Higher Wage representatives again
violated the order of the court in re-
gard to picketing yesterday afternoon,
when they stopped party Of laborers,
returning to Waipahu plantation to
work, and dissuaded the men from car
rying out their object.
There were twenty five laborers, all
former strikers, in the party. Just as
they were about to enter the plantation
preserves they were met by large
delegation of Higher Wage men and
induced to turn back.
Manager Bull of Waipahu plantation,
when asked last night concerning the
occurrence, refused positively to make
anv statement. An officer of the COM
pany later said that he had heard OF
the occurrence, but that he understood
that there had been no disorder of any
kind and that struggling strikers are
continuing to return.

MANSHU FAILS To
FILL STEERAGE
Emigration to South America
Suddenly Falls
Off.

The hopes of japanese emigration
companies for heavy travel from Japan
to South American ports have been
dashed, for of the thousand Japanese
Storage passengers whom the Morioka
Emigration Company expected to send
on the Togo Kisen Kaisha steamship
Manshu Maru, only ffty-six actually
took passage. The vessel arrived off
port late yesterday afternoon and an
chored outside for the night, and may
not continue her voyage to Mexican,
Central and South American ports I'M
til this evening or tomorrow forenoon,
as she has one hundred tons of Japan
csc coal to discharge to the Inter Island
Steamship Company.
There are about seventy five passen-
gers aboard, nearly all in the steerage,
and part of the list comprises Chi
nese. Some wonder has been expressed
even in Japan at the big decrease in
travel to South America. 1t is explain
ed that the principal reason is the com
pileated and severe form of procedure
which has been introduced by the Jap
anese Foreign Office in connection with
applications for emigrants. Such re-
qulrements as the submission Of a pho
tograph of the prospective emigrant
served to throw cold water on the de-
sire existing among the farming folk
to go abroad. Furthermore, as June
was the busy month in the rural dis
trlcts, certain reduction of the num-
Der of applicants was to be expected
under the circumstances.
But the fact that ga out of thou
sand applicants finally backed out has
not been accounted for by any such
ordinary causes. 1t is believed that
the recent Peruvian disturbances and
the Meiji Emigration Company fasco
contributed to discourage further emf
grafton.
The Manshu Maru sailed from Japan
on July Ii and has made slow trip.
She brought fifteen bags of mail. Cap
tain K. Nishi, commander of the boat,
will take on lot of provisions here.
The coal is said to be sample which
the japanese coal operators wish to
have the local steamship company test.

FILIPINO LABOR SUPPLY.

Manila Times, July 1.-The steamer
Kaifong has sailed from Cebu for Hong
kong direct with $50 1aborers destined
for the plantations of Hawaii. The
laborers were recruited by agents Of
the Hawaiian planters and go under
contract to work for stated period
for a stated sum. The men will be
transferred at Hongkong TO one of the
liners to Honolulu.
The agents of the planters are still
in the field and it is planned ito dis
patch several parties Of laborers to
Hawaii under the same conditions.
