FBJIHARA'S FATE IS

Attorney General Hemenway is not
making any quiet reinvestigation of
the charges and evidence in the Fuji-
hara case as has been stated in an
afternoon paper, but is merely collect

cases, he is required TO lay before the
Governor for the guidance of the lat

sign death warrant.
Fnjihara was prosecuted eight years
ago and more by John w. Cathcart

General. The latter is the only man
now in Honolulu who claims to have
any clear recollection of the circum'

John Alameda and A. MacKinnon,
are charged with having entered the
room of Portuguese in the Popular
Hotel, and having taken therefrom two
revolvers, are locked up at the police
station on suspicion. This charge will
be changed to burglary in all proba
bility.
Chief Leal arrested the men and re-
covered the stolen revolvers. He will
not charge them until he has looked up
their records, however, as he believes
that they are bad lot.
Alameda and MacKinnon arrived here
only short time ago from the main
land, and are said to hail from Boston.
Leal believes that they were planning
to enter on campaign of crime when
apprehended and thinks it very prob
able that they may be wanted on the
mainland.

Charles Sheldon, the man whom
Chief Leal was charged with beating
with his club, is again in trouble
Charles was apprehended on Vineyard

.HAMAKUA EXTENSION
WORK PROGRESSING

Hawaii Herald.-Chief Engineer C.
H. Kluegel of the Hilo Railroad Com
pany is quietly pegging away at his
work. He says:
"The construction of the Hamakua
extension of the Hilo Railroad has be-
gun in earnest. It's continuance is as
sured by the fact that funds are avail
able for the purpose. The topography
along the line is such that the cost
of the railway will be large. Otherwise
it would have been built years ago.
"Upon leaving the Hilo station the
line will cross bridge over 400 feet
long, substantial structure with con-
crete piers. Most Of the numerous
gulches will be provided with Stone
masonry or concrete arched eulverts.
Others will be crossed by steel bridges,
of which the first will be placed at
Honolii, 100 feet high and 800 feet
long.
"There will be no sharp curves nor
excessively steep gTades on the line.
In order to attain these desirable con-
dltions the grading will necessarily be
very heavy. Preliminary work Is be-
ing done In getting ont stone and sand.
Two rock erushers and other appliances

Hulihee, otherwise known as "Hully
Gee" saw a Chinese vegetable vendef
deposit his two baskets of fresh
vegetables on the sidewalk near the
corner of King and Liliha streets short
~ after 4 CLOCK yesterday morning
and the thought came to him that here
was the chance to supply the family
larder without cost to himself The
vender had spent part of the night with
lantern pulling onions, radishes soup
vegetables, etc, and the baskets fairly
groaned with the good things.
Hulihee looked about and saw no one
nearby and hastily purloined a guam
tity It's said. But he reckoned without
vigilant police officer on his way
home. Fred Wright, mounted police,
| was in the vicinity and when Hulihee
saw the officer coming he ran, with
the policeman in full pursuit. Hulihee
finally Owed under house up Liliha
street whence the officer dragged him
out and took him to the station where
he was charged with larceny in the
second degree.

William Mari was yesterday charged
under Section 1858, which broadly in
