Cherry, H., Nov. 1S.-With the re-
covery of one body believed to be that
of Ole Frieberg, the location of nine
teen others that could not be rescued
near the ventilating shaft, and a de-
termined attack on the fire through
the main pit, the work of reaching the
300 bodies in the st. Paul mine pro-
sressed rapidly today.
The air shaft, following the daring
exploration that resulted in the loca-
ton of twenty dead, was closed, and
a full stream OF water was directed
into it Then the main shaft was at
tackled The temperature OF this shaft
has been well over 100 degrees. but
continuous sprlnkling today reduced
it TO about ninety degrees.
When the canvas and sand with
which the pit had been closed were

of the drift badly blocked by timbers
and mud, but the fact that their safe

The next squad to descend went
without helmets and reported condi-

sufficient length of hose pipe-3lS

WEIGHEHS EMPLOYED IN
VIOLATION OF CIVIL SERVICE

Washington, Nov. 1s.--Unelassified
laborers in the New York customs
house. the files of the civil service
commission show, were put to work as
sugar samplers between the years
1899 and 1909. in contravention of
law. these positions being in the slss-
sified service.
To what extent this was done is not
disclosed but the fact Is that such
work was given for some time to
Henry C.. Corsa, an unclassified labor
er whose story of alleged bribery In
sugar sampling was printed today.
More than this, on August 2s, 1909.
the civil service commission called
the matter To the attention Of Leslie
NJ. Shaw, then secretary of the treas
ury.
An examination OF the files of the
commission was made today to clear
the public mind of any idea that the
commission had been advised that
that body was aware of alleged viola
tioas OF law in the sampling of sugar.
Mr. Corsa's communication added
nothing to what already has been
printed. II was dated August 3.
1909, he having previously made ap-
plication for reinstatement to the po-
sition from which he had been re-
moved In February.
Touching the sugar frauds 1t said:
Il know OF no reason for my re-
moval except that | furnished the
United states appraiser with positive
proof that the United states sugar
samplers were being bribed by the
agents % the sugar merchants, re-
garding which no action has been
taken by the treasury department"

fort TO secure reinstatement there was

NO REQUEST
FOR RUSSIANS
IMMIGRATION AGENT PERELS-
TROUS HAS FIRST INTERVIEW
WITH TERRITORIAL BOARD

A meeting of the Territorial Board
of immigration was held this morning
at which Pereslrous. the Russian i'm
migration agent, was present and told
the members part of his plans for the
bringing of laborers from Asiatic Rus
STA .ne Board did not go into the
plans in detail, for, i'm spite of pub
lished statements to the contrary,
there have been no definite requests
made for Russian labor by any of the
employers of the Territory. Should
such requests be made Mr.. Perelstrous
VII be asked for full information and
a small number of Russians will be
brought No large number will be
sent for until definite reports in re-
gard to the number of Portuguese to
be sent here by A. j. Campbell have
been received
The meeting was largely taken up
with the reading of letters from A. J.
Campbell, explaining the various mat
ters which he had taken up with the
Federal authorities, all of which have
been settled satisfactorily. The mat
ter of admitting newspaper reporters
to the meetings of the Board was dis
cussed, but no action was taken ons
of the members of the board not be-
ing present and it being thought best
to consider the matter in a fun meet
ing.
In regard to the published statement
that Manager Goodale had made a de-
finite request for Russian labor, E. D.
Tenney of Castle and Cooke made the
following statement
after the visit OF Mr.. Perelstrous
to Waialua Mr. Goodale wrote me a
half page letter telling me of the trip
of inspection over the plantation. In
the letter he mentioned that if the
Board of immigration should bring
the Russians to this city he would be
willinging to try a small number, not
to exceed ten families, however. There
has been no request made by the Wal
alua plantation to have Russians
brought here and | was very much sur
prised to see such statement made"
Mr.. Goodale said: Yes, I am will
ing to try any kind Of laborers and to
give them fair trial. I stated that I
would be willing to try few Rus
slams, not to exceed ten families in
number, but that was all that was said
and nothing has been done"
1t has been stated that the Hawaiian
Development Company wishes Russian
labor but they have made no request
as yet to the board

like if it was the proper time and
place to let Sheba and Lightfoot have
il out and see the result, but the time
of the court belonged to the Govern
ment for the purposes of justice.
Judge, De Bolt, however, favored
latitude and Sheba under cross ques-
tioning told about the seventeen years
he lived on Kauai, beginning as clerk
in the late c. H. Bishops store and
ending as editor of his own paper, the
Shuho, at Hanamaulu. AS was appar-
ent from the questions the purpose of
1t all was to ascertain whether Sheba
was special pet of the planters The
names of many prominent residents
of Kauai were mentioned as among his
acquaintance, but witness said his So
cial relations with them were not in
innate. With reference to Carl Isen-
berg, manager of Lihue plantation, for
instance he said he recognized the
difference in their stations and did
not toad to him" Among those ac-
counted as his friends were ]. B. AL
eXander, NJ. F. Prosser, Mr.. Willard,
W. T. Lucas and Judge Hardy 81 did
not leave any enemy on Kauai" he
said. Among letters of introduction
ne brought to Honolulu was one to
Mr.. Lightfoot, which he did not pre-
sent-he did not say and Lightfoot did
not ask way He came to Honolulu
because he saw better opening here.
kinney again objected to the per-
sonal details, but Judge De Bolt re-
minded him that, when practicing
law, he nearly lost a case in which
Mr. Kinney and himself were engag-
ed owing. to the favor the Supreme
Court showed TO latitude of cross
examination.
There was objection again to a uues-
ton If Sheba's paper in Honolulu was
Intended to be especially friendly to
the planters.
Lightfoot said he wanted to show
whether, since Sheba came to Homo
lulu, he had always advocated the in
terests of the planters as against his
own countrymen.
Kinney wanted to be heard in argu-
ment on this point, and the court then
took It's second recess for the morn
ing.

BIRDS At EMPIRE

The management of the Empire
Theater this morning signed con-
tract with the Crescent City Nightin-
gales to appear at Honolulu's most
popular playhouse for a limited sea-
son. The company will make its To-
cal debut tomorrow night The Night
ingales are composed of five young and
accomplished ladies from Hilo who
have made an immense hit in the
Rainy City with their singing and at
ing. The company includes Mrs. Mi
riam Kalolena, Miss Helen Kaaiwela,
Mrs Lizzie Spalding, Miss Mary Keawe
and Miss Liliha Loa. They arrived
from Hilo a short time ago, their idea
being to give a benefit concert and
dance Arrangements have been made
for this affair which takes place in the
X. of p, Hall on August l. The fame
of their performance spread abroad,
however and with the promptness and
enterprise for which IL is Justly noted,
the Empire management booked the
company for a season which will start
tomorrow night. The program will
consist of singing, dancing and acting
The songs, which are some of the
prettiest which Hawaii can lay claim
to, will be illustrated by pleasing
gestures and appropriate movements.
An orchestra of native musicians will
accompany the young ladies in their
different selections.

sonalities.
Chillingworth certainly had a splen-
did array of witnesses to defend his
case. Brown, of course, had Fennell
and the Hawaiian informer Fennell
never told a lie in his life, but, being
human, or apparently so, must be pre-
sumed capable of being mistaken on
occasion The informer, however. gets
twenty dollars if he sticks the defen-
dant and he gets nothing in case of
discharge; so it is to the interests of
the informer to soak the accused.
An informer's evidence, necessarily,
under these circumstances, is taken
with a large load of salt,
In this regard certain words of
Judge Andrade were either misunder-
stood or distorted the other day. An
drade declared from the bench that
the testimony of certain particular in
formers appeared questionable to him
and those particular men he had ref
erente to were, by their methods, just
about eXhausting themselves with the
court. He did not say that informers
generally, or all informers were to h"
disbelieved, or that they were exhaust
ing themselves with the court, or any
thing of the kind. He had reference
to certain informers and knew where
of he spoke, though he was misinter-
preted in a local paper
