IN PILIKIA
WAIALUA MERCHANT SKIPS AND
STINGs COUNTRYMEN - FINAN-
CIAL RUIN FACES ORIENTALS.

The Japanese wholesale merchants
of this city are feeling the results OF
the plantation strike severely already
The first case in which a direct loss
has resulted came from Waialua,
where Hashimoto, who ran a general
store decided that times wer bad and
left on the Korea without notice to
his creditors. He owed the local ia
panes stores about $4,000, the chief
creditor being Kawahara, of this city.
The jobbers of the city are naturally
tightening up on the Japanese mer-
chants, but as yet have taken no eX-
treme measures in regard to the res
trictions of credit. This has been on
account of the fact that the Japanese
wholesalers, unGer the existing condi-
tions, are not sending in orders They
are placed between two fires. The
small marchant, who always has
transacted his business On credit
co mesto them TO buy a bill of goods
and is asked if he has money. He
says that he has not and asks for
credit, saying that he has been deal
ing with the firm for a long time. In
all probability he already owes the
firm money. If given credit he sells
all the goods that he can and puts
the money in his pocket to help him
to get along through the strike, while
the wholesaler must wait.
In speaking of this matter today a
local man who occupies a responsible
position with one of the largest whole
sale houses in the city said:
THE continuation of the strike for
any length of time will mean that
practically every Japanese wholesal-
er in the city will be ruined fnan-
cially. They are being called on for
credit which they find it impossible to
refuse and they have not the back
ing to handle the proposition. They
cannot under these circumstances ex-
pect the jobbers here to give them
credit when they are on such an UNI
certain basis. What are they going
to do?'

TEXAS HORNED TOADs
FOR HAT ORNAMENTS.

CHICAGO, May 1.-two thousand
horned toads from Texas are going
through the metalizing process at a
metallic reproduction plant at Wau-
kegan and are being formed into hat
pins. To make each pin fresh toad
is needed. 1t is chloroformed before
being put into the process. The idea
of using them for hat pins is expect
ed to appeal to women who like fads.

spite widespread search made for
him by the authorities OF York and
nearby towns Johnson had been do

5000 miles and had disarmed the
Sherff's suspicious and in a measure
won his confidence by his seeming
willingness to return East. Stops
were made at night and he was locked
up aud was shacklcd when the nights
were spent on trains After leaving
York OH Thursday morning he asked
Sheriff Hager to remove the shackles
As the train was moving rapidly, the
sheriff saw no reason tn refuse There
are two accounts oi what followed

minutes later boy told the sheriff
that his prisoner had jumped of the

Junction, but the agent there would
not send il over the company's wires,
and the sheriff on his return to York
brought the first news OF the escape.
Mayor Weaver at once organized a
posse which set out on the hunt in a
big red automobile. Ii was reported
that country constable had captured
Johnson. but the captive was local
character resembling him somewhat.
Search began throughout the neigh
borhod and was kept up during the
day and night. and telegraph and tele-
phone messages were sent broadcast
Sheriff Hager is said to have offered
a reward OF $Ioo which he raised to
$500. for Johnson's capture. He
begged the authorities, almost weep
ingly. to help him capture Johnson be-
lore Governor Crothers learned OF the
escape.
The search started from Grantley
station. on the outskirts Of York.
where Johnson made his leap. Here
it was learned that a man had been
seen runring shortly after the express
passed The place for the leap was
well chosen. On one side is the CO.
dorus creek. and on the other thickly
wooded hills II was surmised that
Johnson might lie hidden until night
and then try to get farther away.
Should he cross the Susquehanna TO
Lancaster county. he would soon be on
familiar ground. and in the neighbor-
hood OF his old haunts. knowing the
surrounding country for wide radius.
Late Thursday night word reached
York from Gettysburg that man

been seen about three miles from that
place by man from whom he had
begged ten cents. 4 sharp lookout
